BUNCH OF CYPSIES PASS
ED THROUGH LUBBOCK

Last Saturday morning bright and
early, several cars of gypsies, or for
tune tellers, arrived in our city and
directly started their work They
were thirsty, they were hungry, they
needed groceries, hardware, in fact
it looked as though they were in
need of seeing all the people who
were apt in any way to have money
on their person. Those who would
have their fortune told. or who would
in any way stop and talk with them,
would find after close invoice Of
their purses, shortage Of money,
some as much as two dollars, some 10
or eleven dollars Chickens also were
attracted in some way, probably
known better to the gypsy than 9th
ers, to them. These tricks were not
played many times until the officers
were notified of their different man
euvers, by parties who had felt their
influence Of being in the city, and
two of the women were caught. II
is thought that they were the only
two Of the bunch that were doing
the work. All the money that they
had taken was returned to their vic
tins, and the gypsies were given a
few minutes to leave our town.

Tests Prove It to Be One Of the

Used in British Tanks.

No type. of motor has been given a
better opportunity to Justify the claims
Of Its designers than the sleeve-valve
motor, the best example of which was
found in the WHY'S Knight models on
display at the Boise Overland COM
pany show rooms on Tenth street
when first this motor was manu-
featured and subjected to use, it
showed exceptional quietness of opera
tion," declares Manager Russell M.
Ash. E
Further developments and mode ex-
tended use have proved it to be one of
the staunchest and most dependable
motors in existence" declared Ash.
Its many virtues have SO won the en-
gineers that, among the prominent au-
tomobile experts, it is known today as
s the motor which always runs
"'The sleeve-valve motor was select
ed by the English engineers to serve
in the British tanks which so often
proved the deciding factor in the many
\ hard fought engagements where the
motor must not fail. England had pre-
viousy Communicated all of the motor
buses at the time motor transports
were SO sorely needed. and sent them
to the front, where the splendid work
of the sleeve-valve motors with which
these busses were equipped was of in
calculable Importance.
The sleeve-valve motors were par
ticularly we'll adapted for use in the
British tanks on account of their eX-
ceptional dependability under every
strain and every adverse condition
I'm America there have been also
many notable examples of the long life
Of the sleeve valve type of motors. In
New York City the Fifth avenue busses

nished a striking exabple of millions
of miles of satisfactory service. One
of the officials of the company is au-
thcrity for the statement that these
motors have travelled total of fully
100000 miles with practically no SER

said, with shortage of mani power

POWER FARMING IS
COMING INTO OWN
Special Building Had to Be
Erected at Kansas City Show
to House Tractor Exhibit
Wallis Made Enviable Rec
ord There.

That power farming is surely coming
into its own is the opinion of j. 1. Bed
well, of the Bedwell Tractor company,
handling Wallis tractors, who recently
returned home after spending some
time in the east on matters relating to
tractors and power farming equip
ment.
Mr.. Bedwell attended the Kansas
City automobile and truck show a few
weeks ago, and Is brimful of optimism
and information pertaining to the part
tractors are playing in the production
of the very necessary food essentials
In connection with the way tractors
and power farming ARE attracting the
attention of live wires in agricultural
circles. Bedwell quotes several Incl
dents that he will remember on his trip
and visit to the auto show by saying:
1.-THE Twelfth Kansas City Automo-
bile Show was held in that city at
the same time that the tractor ex
hibit was staged, but so great was
the demand for space on the part of
the tractor manufacturers and those
with accessory lines that a special
building had to be built to house this
enormous exhibit. which FAR exceeded
the space allotted for the showing OF
passenger cars which was held in a
different building.
Never in the heyday of the auto
mobile industry did such an enthu
siastic or large gathering witness the
exhibit of automotive product than
those who attended the tractor ex-
hibition.
This is Indicative of how the edu-
cation of power farming is spreading
and how the Anticipated and old
methods of horse drawn plows will
soon be think of the past.
The building where the tractor ex-
hibit WAS held had to be enlarged
five different times to take care of
those who wished to show their wares.
One hundred and ten thousand feet
OF floor space was taken up by the
different exhibitors. Seventy tractor
manufacturers and more than forty
manufacturerse of tractor drawn tools
and over 220 makers of tractor parts
and equipment had exhibits in the big
building.
Al usual the Wallis tractor was the
! center OF attraction, as it has been at
every demonstration where it has been
exhibited. Over 400 tractors were sold
IT this exhibition, which is an indica-
ton Of the hold that the Wallis has

BY STUART ROBERTSON.
Manager Bryant Tire & Vulcanizing
company.
When the motor truck came into be-
ing a few years ago, few people appre-
hended that truck traffic was going.,to
be a very considerable factor in the
transport of the future. No one
thought that the railroads could be
superseded for freight handling; least
of all did the railroads and express
companies. Some time later the idea
entered the minds of both of them; it
also entered the minds of numerous
truck owners. Still none of them re-
allied the possibilities. The truck
owner did not think for a moment
that he, with his trucks, could COM
pete with the express companies and
the railroad companies. 1t was gem
orally considered that they had the
monopoly on freight and express hand
ling.
TRUCKS TO STAY.
The war changed all that. When
Verdun was saved, when the defense
of the great Somme valley was accom-
plished, when the Chateau Thierry VIC
tory was achieved, each one made pos
sible by a victory of allied motors
over German railroads, the motor
truck was put on the map to stay. In
this country the railroads were simply
flooded with traffic; they couldn't be-
gin to handle the volume They were
submerged Moreover they discovered
that their short hauls were unprofita-
ble that the only traffic they could
handle at profit was the long dis
lance haul. On the other hand, the
truck owner, driven to it by circum-
stances beyond his control, began to
convey both freight and express con-
signments by truck. He was surpris-
ed to find that he could do it at a pro-
fit and that he could run his trucks
on schedule time.
At first, of course, the truck owner
expected great hostility on the part OF
the railroads. Possibly there was some
such feeling for n while; but the truck
owner presently became aware that the
railroads instead of Directing to truck
