MOTOR CARS NEEDED
TO CARRY TROOPERS
Rapid Time Made Where Automobiles
Are Available.

When it comes to matters military,
little Visalia, Cal, is not only patriotic
but strictly modern. A short time ago
the recruiting officers in that town
were informed that a machine gun
company was needed in hurry by
the Second California Infantry.
A rapid-fre recruiting campaign
produced the men in "a hours and
then q dozen business men of Visalia,
who own Dodge Brothers motor cars,
offered to set the new recruits at the
Preside at San Francisco in record
time.
This was the first attempt at NOV
ing troops long distances by motor
in the San Joaquin Valley and it was
watched with much interest by mill
tary men.
The 230-mile run was made in eight
and one-half hours, with an average
speed of 27 miles an hour. The first
half of the trip was completed witt,
a 35-mile average, but rain and slip
perry roads cut the average to 27 be-
fore the ferry at Oakland was reach
ed.
While the number of men moved in
this particular instance was small,
the run demonstrated that the num-
Der of troops it would be possible to
rush to given point would depend
wholly on the number of motor cars
available.
The only delay reported on the en-
tire trip was occasioned by five pune
lures. The performance of the Dodge
Brothers cars aroused high praise
from the officers who accompanied the
recruits on the trip.

arrange and put into operation an in
telhgent and comprehensive financial
policy, but il would be possible for him
to save the taxpayers money in almost
innumerable other ways. He could for
example, evolve a road building pro
gram extending over a period of years
which would give the town something
to show for the thousands OF dollars
which it devotcs to this department an
nually. In the matter of purchasing
supplies he could no doubt save enough
in the first year or two to pay a large
portion of his salary. And as time went
on new opportunities for economy would
be continually coming within his reach.
Some toes might be trodden on at the
start: some long established precedents
shattered, but the inevitable result
would be bigger purchasing power for
every dollar of public money.
And that, in the final analysis, would
be the only test by which such a plan
could be judged. If the taxpayers
found they were getting more for THEN
money they would certainly call it sue
cessful. And the small taxpayer, the
poll taxpayer even. is the man who
ought to be most interested in seeing
such plan put into effect for he comes
nearer bearing his fair share Of the bur
dens of government than anyone els,
and consequently the saving would bt
| proportionatelv greater to him than t
anyone else. Fortunately, he is in sucl
a majority that when he becomes con

And the little girls stood behind
them and gave them make-believe
things to eat on little dishes. Then
when the dolls had finished their tea
the little girls had cambria tea, bread
and butter and sponge cake. This
was all served on Helen's little blue

everything matched.

gested that they should play that their

was to be a very fine affair.
"Of course the other little girls had
brought over good many dresses and

of the fun of playing with dolls is to

"They looked very fine for the party
and after it was supposed to be over
they undressed their dolls and put
them to bed. They had little night
gowns and night caps, and some Of
them had pink woody jackets.

out they rang bell.
