CREENLEE COUNTY OFFICE REJO|CES
 IN NEW CADILLAC

It has just been noted that the Bab- bitt Bros. Motor company is in receipt of a wire from A. L. Terry of Clifton accepting their Cadillac car above all corners. Prices and specifications were asked for by March 27, all classes and grades of cars included, and it has just developed that the Cadillac is the faV- orite by a wide margin, only one other car having been seriously considered. The car is to be used by the sheriff's department in the discharge of it's strenuous duties, and the car is ex- peeted to adequately handle any situa- tion that may arise Speed is required and above all dependability is looked for The bord selected the Cadillac because of it's rugged build, its sure shot performance and it's ability to keep this up all year round.
 Imagine if you will, small dark office in the court house-the hour has just struck 12-the single occupant is writing at a small flat top desk under a solitary light. The ring of a teie- phone bell breaks the silence of the night. The man makes notation The Apache country, 60 miles to the north" AM right, we'll be there" and clangs up the receiver.
 Several deputies are hastily routed from their beds, bringing their dull gleaminS Winchesters with them, and dressing as they go. The call is in definite but there is trouble. They climb into the waiting Cad and are off in cloud of dust. The old Cad is just unlimbering now as she blows . through the hills, willing and eager to carry these men Of the law to their destination, no matter where it may be No roads, no lights. nothing to go by eut ones sense of direction.
 The sheriff is not alarmed over the roadside knows there is no such thing as ''too rough going" for the car it is only question of beating them 10 it.. He whispers something to the driver the answer is a different growl from the gears and she literally cuts through the singing wind. A ranch house looms
 in sight-the sheriff phones-the ban dits have cut through to Blue Canyon, seven miles to the east.
 In just l5 minutes the gang is ann pushed at the canyon, the arrest is made and the faithful car turns her nose into the home-trail Only 165 miles since midnight, but all in the days work The day shift comes on and she goes through another steady
 performance without a murmur. week ! in and week out, month after month.
 This is why the selection was Cadil- | lac in Greenlee county.
 i But the Cadillac is appreciated out
 side of Greenlee county, as the fol- lowing will show:
 | A prominent business man Of Phoe 1 nix had just purchased new Cadillac and was putting on his license plates | in front of the Rabbit Bros, garase C. ! From stopping posture he arose and stood erect, looking at some small ob- | ject in his hand He walked into the office where Manager Edwin Babbitt l was sitting at his desk, The man said
 ''Mr, Bahbitt. have just found ou ! something about a Cadillac car that I'll wager you do not know yourself. The | details of this car make it a wonderful car in my estimation. I have found | that these little thumb screws for the 1 number plates are pushed with brass ! Now. next year, when l am ready to
 put on my new numbers I can unscrew
 these and not have to break them of
 with chisel, because there will be nc
 rust. It shows that the wonderful Cad
 lilac organization has overlooked noth-
 ing. I want to tell you that those de
 tails are simply amazing"
 With an air of great satisfaction, ne turned and left the office.
