THROUGH WILDS OF AFRICA
Plenty of Excitement in Motorcal
Trip Recently Undertaken by
Lover of Adventure.

To travel 1,S00 miles overland in 9
mOtOrcar through the wilds of South
Africa without a mishap is considered
a remarkable accomplishment. accord.
ing to a story in African Motor OF
johannesburg.
In this article r. Asher of Port Eliz.
abeth tells of a successful trip. "The
roads in this country are nOtOriOusly
bad, which makes the feat performed
by the car the more striking" says Mr..
Asher.
The journey took him through Ora.
Jamestown, City of the Saints, Fort
Beaufort and through Bedford, a typi-
cal inland city, and many of the larger
settlements.
In spite of transforms and almost
impossible roads no difficulty was ex-
perienced throughout the whole trip
aside from tire trouble. Some portions
of the journey were made at the rate
of 81 miles per imperial gallon of
gasoline.
Parts of the journey through Mon
tagu pass and Kyshna hills had to be
negotiated in second speed. yet through
all of this mountainous travel the re-
markable feature was the cOOlness of
the motor. Mr.. Asher reported that
no water was put in the radiator from
OudtshoOrn to Port Elizabeth, which
are at opposite sides of this hilly cOun-
try.
Describing parts of the trip and com
menting upon the appalling road con
ditions in places, Mr.. Asher says thai
after plugging and struggling through
almost impossible roads, a river was
encountered which had to be fOrded
1t was necessary to take the plunge
with the car into a swift torrent, Sc
deep that he could not open the cal
door. The radiator was partly sub
merged, but the car plOwed through
successfully.

NOW CALLED NICKEL-SILVER
WeIl-Known Metal Has Been Relieved
From the Obliqu;ty of Bearing
a German Name.

One of the largest matchmaking
concerns in this country has recently
changed the name of the alloy here
tOfOre known as German silver, and is
now marketing this commodity as
nickel-silver, and publication devoted
to the metal industry suggests that
the word silver be eliminated entirely,
as there is no silver in the cOmbina-
.tion. This publication says: "f the
nickel is taken from an IS per cent
German silver alloy only two and
one brass will remain. Why not then
call the compound 'nickel-brass,' or, If
commercial objections are too strong
to be overcome at once, why not call it
nickel alloy? The various contents Of
nickel may be designated by utilizing
the different percentages that the al
10y contains. Thus, 4, 6, 8, 10, IL, 10,
1S per cent, ETC., nickel-allOy. 1t is a
fact that some manufacturers are al
ready designating the material now
being sold as Sheffield plate,' as sill
ver-plate on a nickel base We see
no reason why the same argument
does not apply to the alloy being called
nickel-silver."

TOOK FLING AT BOOSTERS
Visitors Suggestion Probably Did Not
Tend to Make Him Popular
in Los Angeles.

Merle Sidener, local advertising
man. recently returned from a West
ern trip in which he visited the city
of Los Angeles. He was impressed
with the boosting Of the Los Angeles
citizens and said he learned that an
Oregon colonel from Portland was the
guest of honor at Il banquet in Los
Angeles. The usual after-dinner
speeches were made, all boosting the
city Of Los Angeles, but each speaker
regretted that Los Angeles had not
been founded on the coast. The speak
ers all said that had the city been on
the coast instead of ten miles or so
from it, the city would be the garden
spot of the world. The visiting colo
mel was called on to speak and said:
Gentlemen, 1 am impressed with
your city as much as you are and be-
leve that l can suggest a way in
which you can accomplish your wish"
All Of the citizens present leaned
forward eagerly, for this was no doubt
the solution that had long been wait
ing for. The colonel continued:
This is what you should do. OBJ

IS CASTLE OF OLD ROMANCE
Haddon Hall, in England, Has Been
the Home of Many Persons
Who Were Famous.

HaddOn Hall is one of the oldest
manor houses in England. 1t was old
when William the COnquerOr came
from Normandy, when Saxon Harold
Sell at Hastings and England passed
Into the hands of the NOrmans. The
ghosts of centuries Of noble families,
the PeverelS Rutlands, VernOns, all
famous in English history, haunt its
Oaken halls, an exchange Observes.
Sweet, willful Dorothy Vernon tripped
down the same wide stair by which
she escaped to meet her lover on her
sisters wedding night. The park is
the same as it was when young John
Manners served the old barOnet as a
game keeper and won the daughter of
the manor.
At the death of Mistress DOrOthy's
father, Sir George Vernon, the han
passed into the hands of the Rut-
lands, who hold it to this day, al
though they do not use it as a resi-
dence. The place is open to visitors.
The hall, low, OblOng building is ivy
covered and gray with age. Over the
northern rampartS stands the Peverel
tower built by the first Norman own
er. To the south are the terraced gar
denS, where Elizabeth on her famous
visit to the Hall walked with Doro-
thy.
The drawing room has a floor Of
solid oak, cut from a single tree in
the park. The walls of the room are
carved with the arms and crests Of
the various families that have owned
the manor. Before the huge fireplace
the queen must have sat as she
watched the dancers, among whom
were Dorothy and the earl Of Lelces-
ter.
Haddon Hall is a castle Of old ro-
nance. The story of the lovers and
the queen has been told in almost
every tongue. 1t is the English YER
