TUsCALOOSAN TO SIBERIA

Tuscaloosa, July 31.-(Special)-Tu caloosa furnishes a recruit for service in Siberia with the United States army whether the choice made by Fred M Mink of Brookwood was due to the torrid weather of the past few days or not Is not revealed by his papers. but that was his preference as ex- pressed to the recruiting office of the army here. The same day Jake Sniae- of Vance, in this county, enlisted and said he wanted to go to the Philippines, and he is on his way. His father came tearing into town after Jake, but the son had already enlisted, and after the beauties and benefits of service in the army had been explained to him by the suave and eloquent recruiting officer it was evident that the old gentleman rather envied his boy, and gave his full consent.
 Prominent people and landowners from the northern section of the county. are greatly rejoiced at the movement and assure members and officials of the Board of Trade of their hearty co-opera- tion and backing, moral and financial. It is likely the Board of Trade will not undertake very much else while handling the project, as it is considered of major importance to link this region to Tus- caloosa and open up the new territory, and the progress thus resulting will be ample reward for concentrating on the one effort.

COMING OF ELCAR
 EAGERLY AWAITED
 BY LOCAL PEOPLE
The Elcar is to make it appearance

The Elcar is to make it appearance in Phoenix within a short time A carload of the latest addition to the efforts of some of the leading auto mobile engineers in the country, will be in Phoenix as fast as transporta- tion facilities will allow.
 The announced coming of the Elcar made exclusively in The Republican last week, has aroused a great amount of interest among motorists and those who will become motorists.
 Back of the coming of the new Elcar lies 47 years experience m the making of carriages, and 12 years experience in the manufacturing of nigh grade automobiles. The company which is putting the moderate priced Elcar on the market has changed it's policy and is now building the new models, ranging from a five-uassenger tour- ing car with four cylinders to six cylinder passenger sedan. In fact they are putting put a complete line of high class moderat, priced cars, of extreme flrxibility, and beauty.

MILLER FOUND APACHE TRAIL
 IN BAD SHAPE

The heavy rains that fell in the northern and central portions of Ari- zona the last week did more than give the Roosevelt Dam a big boost toward going over the top, according to C. c. Miller, of the R. R. Roper Motor com pany.
 Talk about water" he said. T never knew that Arizona could have so much. After driving new seven passenger Chalmers to Globe for our dealer there who was anxiously await ing arrival of the car to make delivery 10 a waiting customer, 1 started on a return trip immediately following the heavy rains that fell continuously for three days in Gila county. The trip us in the new Chalmers was made without the slightest mishap, although the roads were muddy and the creeks particularly Rock Creek were running high.
 We did not even use chains and in crossing the streams merely put a newspaper in front of the radiator where the suction of the fan held it securely in place and as a result we did not have the slightest trouble. The trip was the most comfortable we had ever made due to the extremely easy riding qualities of the Chalmers and the tires did not show a mark although The roads were badly washed.
 The return trip was made in an old model car, but in all justice to the cal in question, it should be said that only hydroplane could have successfully negotiated the return voyage. Stage passengers were being transferred across the streams in wagons and nc cars were able to ford the wild running creeks that were in full flood. In man! cases even after the waters recede( it took hours of work to repair tn, damage done where the banks wer, washed"
