PASSING THE BUCK ALONG.
q, HARRY 5. FORD THE FLIVVER ROUTE

| discuss the poker. It's played just like
any good, well behaved man would play
any other poker, and you don't have to
ride to do it, either.
The first fellow gets the first car that
passes the second the next one, and so
on. Your hand is shown by the numbers
on the license plate. For instance, If the
car first passing is No. 32456 the first
man wants to jar down hard on his hand
and 1T would be pretty safe to risk
30-cent lunch on such pickup, the hand
showing a straight flush. He wants to
watch out that No. It'll isn't close by,
though-there is always a chance, you
know.
This really is an interesting game and
when you play it-minus the friendly
Lip deposits you leave now and then-it
is perfectly within the law
1--WE know mighty little about such mat
| tiers, but 1t has been rumored that 1t
is a very fascinating game to be played
by "he' and shea word to the wise
is sufficient, and the others wouldn't
take well to the idea even If the ivory
was Observation-Disclosures is scarce in
summer. YOU know.

Alta BOY!

Lines to the gentlemen employed by
automobile manufacturers to write the
automobile news:
Scribes who pen the motor news
Senders of the so-called story;
You who kid the writing Muse,
You who cover cars with glory
Hooverize the time you spend,
Cease to send your cheerless chatter.
Send me newsstand try to send
Stories that are free from patter
Write me no archaic lie
OF the motor show-I went there.
Do not write that every eye
Focused on the cars you sent there.
Factories may grow in girth--
Who am 1 that I should doubt it?
They may grow as great as earth,
Print it! Who would read about it?
What your bosses may opine,
Where they spend their hours of leisure
Doesn't earn your car a line
Solid agate, single measure
Chorus queens or movie stars,
Actor people = their opinions
When it comes to motor cars
Count as least among their minions.
Do l make my meaning clear?
Patient and polite | ask it..
Send me only news this year
Or Ill chuck it in the basket
'Definition on request.

Amen!

Kisel Kar distributor.
Il refer to the axles, which are OF the
same design as those that were first
built by Kissel in 1907 and since have
gained an enviable reputation for stabil-
ity, durability and dependability.
THE reason for this is that they are

the same methods of inspection and test
ing that We're employed in Kissel-Kars
when they sold for much higher prices,
are today being ngidly adhered to-"

The present moment is less favor
able to the German plans than. when
they started their advance March 81.

the French and British armies. Now
there is no sensitive part Of the line.

portunity to make the most practical
use OF all the allied troops.
An all-night battle in which the
Germans. after gathering powerful
columns. hurled them upon Hangard-
En-Santerre, resulted in the village
changing hands several times. Indi-
vidual combats with bayonets, from
village, is now Il heap of smoking
ruins. which the Germans held this
morning with difficulty and their re-
peated efforts to advance further
were stopped. r.i
The artillery, extending the radius
of it's fire, bombarded heavily Hailles,
Castel and Senecat wood, ali situated
lon the plateau which bars the route
to Amiens. The enemy launched
several assaults upon Hailles and
even succeeded in reaching the lower
slopes Of hill 50, just to the south Of
this village, but the French put an
end to his progress here.
At the same time the Germans were
~devoting great attention further
north to the British sector around
Cachy. where the fighting was very
severe.
The German effort gives more
marked signs Of becoming a desper-
late attempt to force a way to
