"OId Kinu CoIe.n

The first reference to "Old King
Cole" the "merry old soul" of the ia
nous nursery rhyme, was made in a
book written by DR.. William King,
who was born In 1888. 1t is probable
that the song was composed in the
seventeenth century, although some
investigators think 1t much older.
Halliwell Identifies the merry mon
arch with Cole or Coel, q semi
mythical king Of Britain who is sup
posed to have reigned In the third
century. The Scots also have an "Old
King Coul," said to have lived In the
fifth century. Freeman and other
historians say King Cole ruled Brit
ain in the sixth century. There are
many who assert that the reference to
the pipe indicates that Old King Cole
lived at period after Raleigh had in
trOduced tobacco into Europe, but this
does not necessarily follow, as q
pipe might mean a musical instru-
meht.

SEVEN "MISTRESSES OF SEA"

Nations Have Right to Title Of
High Honor.

Mark Sullivan, writing in Golfers

other writer as follows, referring to
nations that have held the position OF
the Mistress of the Seas"
"Since the day that man first strad-
died floating log and started human
ity adventuring by sea, the intervening
centuries have seen ony seven nations
possessed of sufficient genius to domi-
nate the earth's deep waters. During
2248 years Tyre has had but seven
true heirs. Tyre, in her time, was
the inspiration of all commerce. IRE

after Carthage to the Italian cities,

Italy held her dominance for 700 years,
until the Hanseatic League Of Cities

the discovery Of America by Spain.
With the aggressiveness Of which that
discovery was characteristic, Spain

Ten Points to Con-
slider BefOreYOu
Buy any Truck

NHE Motor truck is established. Its utility is longer
questioned. As of transportation it is defin
itely established that motor truck is incomparably
economical, convenient ETC., so it is not question of
whether not you need truck
Your decision must be cch truck to select 1t is big
question not to be decided until you have every fact
data of cost before you. On that basis only you make
a selection that will justify the required expenditure.
NARY "The Ten Test Truck invites every investigation
" every test question that any may advance
The Gary Motor Truck has been selected by of the
largest Truck in America. They buy basis of
fact only and the Gary has satisfied these in every
one of these following ten vitality important points.
The gazette-times. [volume] (Heppner, Or.) 1912-1925, 1919-08-28

Test 81" REASONABLE INVEST
MENT Don't buy truck that will de-
preciate too rapidlyto be economical You
really rent motor truck when you buy it.
At the end of its period Of use it should
have substantial leash OF trade-in" val
ue. Investigate the actual "after use"
worth Of any truck before you make your
selection
Test 20" ECONOMICAL SELECTION
Trucks are means of economy. 1t is not
an investment to buy a truck that will in
crease your transportation costs. Find
out what it will actually cost you to trans
port your merchandise.
Test '3" SIMPLICITY. Skilled ex-
perienced labor costs money. You don't
want to increase your labor hire because
of your truck investment. Before making
your choice, take any worker in your de-
livery department, give him few simple
instructions, see whether or not the truck
is simple enough for his unskilled abilities.
Test a" EQUALIzED BALANCE
From front to rear lamp bracket maxi
mum efficiency of operating requires even
distribution Of weight, work and wear.
The motor must not be too light for its
load, the frame must not be heavier than
is necessary. Consider whether or not
there is proper correlation of size and
parts.
Test "5" OVER CARRIAGE. Do not
buy one-ton truck and expect it to do a
312-ton duty But the truck you do buy
The gazette-times. [volume] (Heppner, Or.) 1912-1925, 1919-08-28

should be built to allow for reasonable
margin of overload. Buy the size truck
that your business needs, but do not in
vest in 5-ton truck for 1-ton truck la
bor Nor should you buy 312 ton truck
for ton labor.
Test "6' CONTINUED OPERATION.
Accidents will happen, and some repairs
are inevitable Select the truck of a de-
sign so standardized that repairs will
never keep your truck out of service.
Test "7" ESTABLISHED MANUFAC-
TURE. A truck made by maker having
limited resources is questionable in
vestment. Be sure that the maker of your
truck will be able to continue in business
as long as you do.
Test "S" DEALER DEPENDABLE
ITY. The dealer is the agency that is di-
rectly responsible to you. Be sure that
the dealer from whom. you buy your truck
is as reliable as your own banker. Do not
buy truck from dealer that has repu-
tation of shifting responsibility.
Test SO" NON RADICAL DESIGN.
Radical changes and principles are exper-
mental. Do not buy an experimental
truck Keep within approved design and
principle,
Test "10' SPEED POWER. An en-
ergency will arise where you will have to
run your fully loaded truck at its maxi
mum speed. Power should provide for
speed to allow for speed when it is neces-
sary.
