and your Uncle Sam picks up his pen
land answers them for you patiently
adequately and correctly.
Uncle Sam unites in himself many law
yers, doctors, astronomers, biologists
psychologists, agricultural experts
foresters, chemists, biologists and
other scientists. He has ten thousand
eyes, ears, hands and brains.
HOW TO GET A START.
! In order that you may learn how to
address him in that particular capacity
of his which enables him to impart in
formation with authority, you should
consult the congressional directory.
There you will find Uncle Sam dissect-
ed, so that you may ascertain what
part of him shall be intrusted with
your problems. Even If you have no
burning desire to find out who can tell
you why oil quiets stormy waters or
why the moon always presents the
same face to the earth, 1t will pay you
to turn the leaves of the congressional
directory. You will discover to your
amazement how mighty is Uncle Sam,
how far-reachinS is his arm, how ac-
quisitive of mind is his mind, how
scientific are his methods, how far
reaching is his vision.
MAKES WORK FOR HIMSELF.
You give Uncle Sam so little to do,
comparatively speaking, that he in
vents tasks for himself to perform
tasks such as measuring the heat of
the sun, finding out the cause of ma
laria, testing the light of fireflies, dis
covering new ways OF obtaining gaso-
line from petroleum, so that you need
not pay too much for running your
motor car. ana testing flying machines.
He is a professional rat chaser. He
tests weights and measures for accur-
acy. He solves the servant girl and
farmland problem by supplying immi-
grants to those who want them. He
conducts the biggest mail order book
store in the world, and sells at cost
copies of more than one hundred thoI-
sand valuable works. He is u first
class publisher and editor of periodi-
Gals to the number of about fifty. and
conducts q world wide subscription
business in order to sell them. He is
q fine linguist; for he speaks no less
than % foreign languages in order to
tell new arrivals from Europe where
settlers are wanted, where farm lands
can be rented or bought cheaply, or
where employment can be found.
If Uncle Sam were only better ora
tor. II he cared as much for the manner
of presenting his vast, laboriously ac-
CURED knowledge as he does for its
matter, he could make himself far
more helpful person than he is. But
Uncle Sam is not a literary artist.
From a purely esthetic point Of view
the governments annual printing out
put of more than three billion pages
OF reports. bulletins and monographs
constitutes about the dullest and drear-
lest reading ever penned by man. But
( il you have imagination these publican
tions set you aflame with ambition,
intoxicate you with enthusiasm. infect

STUDEBAKER PRICES

Last Big Manufacturer of
Motor Cars to Take This
Step.

The increased cost OF materials and

an increase in prices of all models,
says L. ]. Oliver. vice president and
director of sales of the Studebaker
Corporation. But this increase will
not become effective until September
18th.
Materials entering into the con-
struction OF Studebaker cars have ad-
vanced anywhere from 25 per cent to
100 per cent and. in some instances.
considerably more. Because Of large
purchases and long-term contracts for
raw materials made last summer. we
are able to continue our present low
prices. But at the present rate OF
production and the popular demand
for Studebaker cars which is rapidly
exhausting all materials purchased at
old prices, 1t is necessary for US to
announce the increased prices TO take
