Boone Pendleton, motoring along the
road Just ahead OF the inevitable
storm, ran out of gasoline very close
to the spot where Judith was sitting,
discovered the girl and proposed the
only solution-he would carry her 10
his hunting lodge nearby and there
they would await the passing of the
storm, which might last an hour and
might last three days, as 1t did. Here
indeed is a situation. And this situa-
ton is the foundation of Vanardy's de-
lightfully romantic story, THE Girl
by the Roadside" which Bluebird

of the Strand theater on today and
Monday. Violet Mersereau is starred

BURNING GRAIN

Following is a true story from
Othello, Wash.
1t was nearing harvesting time and
insurance agents were busily engaged
getting the farmers to take out in
surance against loss Of crop by
fire, flood, douth, etc. Some of
the farmers were not inclined to
spend any more money on insurance
but the insurance agent needed the
commission for writing up insur-
ance.
The farmer had to hire labor to
harvest the crop and he was opposed
to hiring an l. w. w. One eve
ming, after the visit of the insurance
agent, the farmer found a note in
the tool box of the harvesting ma
chine, which stated that if he did not
|. w. WIS his grain would be burnt,
Next day the insurance agent hap
pened along again and-the farmer
insured his grain.
Question: benefited most by
the note and who would be most like
ly to write it? Surely not the
insurance agent.

 KING IN AUTO
 LUXURY GLASS

"The remarkable balance obtained in the sceintific construction of the Mar mon 34 has established beyond a doubt the supremacy of the light car in the luxury class says Maurice O'NeiIl of the ONeill Auto company Because of it's light weight-eleven hundred pounds less than other major class cars -the Marmon 34 has obtained mile age of from fourteen to fifteen miles to the gallon of gasoline, fifty to seventy live per cent better than most automo- plies or its kind. Yet this precedent breaking light car has been demon- strated to have road-ability in the very highest degree
 It means only one thing, that light weight construction is the future stan dard of automobile manufacture, with the Marmon 34 leading the way by more than two years. All doubts of the riding qualities of the light weight car always quickly dispelled by a test of this pioneer in the field, have van ished in the face of the demand from buyers for the economical advantage or nght weight when riding qualities actually are enhanced along with it"
 Sales experiences among automobile manufacturers in 1916 showed con- clusively that in practically every small town or rural district there are people who demand an automobile of marked superiority. The requirements of deal CTS for the coming season show that this demand is increasing rapidly.
 Now that the summer selling season IS approaching, it is apparent that the demand for major class cars will in- crease in the TJIr1I diCtriatc tbrouobout the country
 ''To no one is the automobile a great CT economic factor than it is to the farmer, and he enjoys combining the highest comfort in riding and driving with the speed and service of the fine car. We have found that the qualities of the new sceintific constructed light weight car appeal to the farmer and the small town owner especially
 With the many good roads on which the Marmon 34 will accelerate from ten to fifty miles an hour in less than eighteen seconds the farmer in his use of the car for quick transportation can obtain the same enjoyment from mo- toring that comes to the city man driv- ing on pavements. And where the road is rough the driver of the Marmon 34 finds his car of special satisfaction. Because of perfect balance and the proper distribution of weight, it rides very comfortably under any condition it faces

AVERY CORPSTE|N
 |S NOW OWNER IF HAYNES ROADSTER

Avery Corpstein, oldest son of Mayor Peter Corpstein, of the city of Phoenix, IS drlVlng a Haynes light six, four passenger roadster, delivered to him Qurlng the past week by the Borderland Motor company. One suit of clothes was ruined, a new silk shirt was put "on the bum and several quarts of oil and grease were absorbed in the suit and shirt before Corpstein finally had decided that the Haynes was the car he wished to own and drive. He investigated the motor car field thor oughly before he began eliminations. At the end of his examinations he de- clared for the Haynes and since he has been driving his light six roadster.
 The advice of an engineer a friend of COrpstein's had much to do with his final selection of the Haynes as the "one best bet According to the en- gineer, who, by the way, was a me chanical expert there is no greater value in the world in motor cars than Is found in the Haynes at the price Mechanically. declared this engineer to COrpSteln, the car is excellent It's features are such as would recommend II. he declared to the most critical Of buyers and to the most experienced motor car owner
 Corpstein investigated these state mentS himself 10 verify them Tn the service rooms of the BOrderland Motor company he examined critically every Haynes on the floor. With a perfectly good suit of clothes and @ silk shirt as his jumper and bib he craWled beneath. over and into the cars. He probed their joints, their bolts, their construc- ton. their engines their springs, their lighting, starting and ignition systems, their wiring. with experienced eye.
 Finally Corpstein satisfied himself as to the qualities of the car. He drove one about the streets of Phoenix and into the hills about the city Then he returned to the Borderland Motor com pany's offices and announced that he was satisfied.
 Corpstein is an example of Haynes purchasers throughout the entire na- tion. Men and women who know what they are buying when they buy it and men and women who are thoroughly conversant with motor ear qualities

TRA|LERS
 CAIN POPULARITY
 IN ALL SECTIONS

The Bennett Lumber company, Phoe- nix representative for the Utility Trail CT, is receiving hundreds of letters written by enthusiastic owners of these trailers
 According to word received from the Los Angeles Trailer company, Pacific coast representative for the Utility Trailer, all sub-agencies have greatly increased their orders during the past few weeks. Mir. Bennett reports that one corporation alone is now using more than 100 Utility Trailers.
 The success of trailers in connection with all kinds of deliveries is assured, it is stated, and it is thought that the time is near at hand when trailers will be as common on the streets as Ford automobiles.

are universally Haynes drivers and owners. Those who are mechanically acquainted with motor vehicles realize the Haynes superiorities and recog- nize the Haynes as among the best cars in the world. It is for this req son alone that Haynes owners are never dissatisfied with their cars and that Haynes owners, after two or three years of Haynes pleasure, universally buy Haynes when they make their second, third or fourth purchase.

 We understand that you are interested in in formation regarding trailers for use with motor trucks
 We have been using a two-wheel trailer, which we secured from the Los Angeles Trailer Company some eight nine months ago. We use this both with our two-ton truck and with our Ford truck and get excellent satisfac- tion from either.
 We find that the of this trailer gives us almost as much delivery capacity as an addi- tional truck
 Our trailer has been in continuously since we have had it. and apparently is in as good condition as when we first got it. We believe that the trailer idea with motor trucks represents about the most economical delivery system yet tried.

Don't stop Living

When those to whom we look for
information as to the condition Of
things and advice as to our futuer
prospects told us to be economical
during the war, they never in
tended we should stop living, as
some timid folk seem to imagine.
The country is at war, sure
enough-and every man is expected
to do his duty.
And there is need Of economy in
foodstuffs and other things, to the
end that we may be helpful and ef.
ficient.
That's all.
We're fabulously rich. We have
natural resources beyond our
dreams. We can feed and finance
the whole world.
But we must get on the job in
dead earnest.
Billions are to be spent here h
foreign p0wers-now our allies-as
fast as we can use it. 1t means not
only work for everybody, but high
wages and great prosperity.
Don't be estrayagant. but buy
the things you need foods, cloth
ing, home furnishings. Go to the
movies. Laugh, play, cheer-up p-and
eight when your turn comes.
