chassis and custom coachwork, nor BY
the brilliant attendance. but by the
sales being made.
The cars exhibited range In price from
$4,000 to $4,000, fact which serves
to emphasize the Significance of this
buying. 1t Is also Influenced by the
fact that the output of automobiles Is
to be curtailed during the coming
twelve months at least. the limit of
curtailment being that set by railroad
shipping conditions rather than by
shortage Of materials or munition work,
and. therefore. early purchase is de-
sirable to insure reasonable delivery.
Due to the fact that chassis construc-
ton is largely standardized. interest at
the automobile salon is largely centered
in the custom coachwork, of which
there are some seventy fine examples.

TO INVESTIGATE.

Dr. c. H. Hunt, county health off cer. was called to NacO yesterday to investigate a report that MeXicans in fected with smallpox had been across the line. He found that one Mexican with the. disease had been sent back across the line, but that others who came across with him, after being vac cinated, had been allowed to cross and mingle with the pOpulace there, and then allowed to go on to Tempe, where tEey were to work in the cotton fields. The doctor states that they should not Q ave been allowed to go, as some or them might be ready to take down with the disease within the next day CT so. and the fact that they were vac cinatsd would not stop the disease, as the vaccine would have no chance to offset the disease germs. He reported the matter to the state health officers at Phoenix. and it Is more than prob able the entire shipment will be placed in quarantine there.
