VISITORS ARRIVE
 ONE DAY BECOME
 FRIENDS 0|V NEXT

pr. Madison J. Keeney of Colorado arrived in Phoenix last Monday. At practically the same time of the doc tors arrival, car load of Chandler cars arrived here, consigned to the W. E. Gardner company, state distrib- utors. Included in this car load was chummy roadster, just the sort of vehicle visitor would require to prop eriy visit the interesting parts of the valley.
 Dr. Keeney didn't know there was a new @chummy' in town, but he had hopes. He visited the sales room of the Gardner company on Tuesday, less than 24 hours after his arrival and there bought the roadster which had been in town about an equal time.

CONGRESS ACTS
 ID STOP THEFT
 IF AUTOMOBILES

It is just about as safe to steal an automobile and take it from one state to another, as it is to moneky with Uncle Sam's mail system. The federal government has at last taken cognizance of the enormous number of interstate thefts, and steps have been taken to curtail that greatest of all profiteers, the auto thief.
 The problem of putting a stop to the stealing of autos has been one which has bothered federal and state authorities for years. The extent of the traffic at last became so great, that congress was asked to take &C., tion- This action came a short time ago in the shape of the National Motor Vehicle Theft Act" making 1t federal offense to transport stolen cars from one state to another, and to receive such a car.
 Under the act it is provided that whoever shall transport or cause to be transported in interstate or foreign commerce a motor vehicle, knowing the same to have been stolen, shall be punished by fine of not more than s5,Oo0 or by imprisonment of not more than five years or both"
 Congress could scarcely have en acted any law more needed than that designed to stop auto thefts. State laws on the subject have been made quate to meet the evil. The losses te i the people of the United States by reason of this stealing has amounted to hundreds of thousands of dollars { year.
 It is getting so that 1t is next t, impossible for the owners of cheaI cars to obtain theft insurance, rate having increased approximately 10 per cent It is the cheaper automobil which is usually stolen. The highe priced cars are too hard to dispose of
 The total number of cars reporte. solen in IS western cities during 191 was 22,272. Detroit headed the lis with 2,s37 cars missing, Chicago wa second with 2.s11, and St. Louis thir, with 2,241. In Kansas City 46 pc cent fthe cars stolen were not re covered.
 The total value of automobiles nov in use in the United States is given a $7,800,000. It is readily seen that wit a treasure of this amount lying aroun loose, as it were, the necessity of a lay to prevent the transportation of ma chimes from one state to another ca, not be estimated

FRANKLIN PICKED BY O[DF|ELD FUR
 DAILY WORK TRIP

Barney Oldfield. probably the most widely known exponent of motor speed in the world today, has become con- vert to the Franklin car, and the speed king has picked one for his personal use.
 Having retired from the racing game for the more sedate duties of president of the Oldfield Tire company. Barney needs a car to make trips from his office to the factory. The headquar- ters of the new tire company is in Cleveland, Ohio and the factory Is in Akron. This distance of 37 miles is covered daily in the Franklin car, and Barney says it is ''plenty fast enough 2 This remark has rather a meaning Of significance. Barney being 100 per cent motorwise and then some, makes the right distinction between the car

100000 DODGE BROS. CARS HAVE
 BEEN PRODUCED

When Dodge Brothers motor car number 100000 rolled from the assem- bly, line and swung around the factory test track for final inspection before delivery, it marked a manufacturing achievement of exceptional importance in the history of the motor car in .dustry.
 The achievement is unique because 100000 motor cars were produced and marketed during the first five years of operation. which is a record in the au- tomobile industry.
 Less than five years ago, on Decem- Der 4, 1914. to be exact, the first motor car bearing the Dodge Brothers name plate was shipped to a bona fide pur- chaser. It was the first material evil dence of Dodge Brothers determina- ton to devote their wide manufactur- ing experience to the production of complete motor cars. Since that day the shipments have been growing in volume until few days ago, the 4o0,- 900 mark was reached.
 In 1914 Dodge Brothers works GOV cred approximately twenty acres of floor space. and even then was con- sidered one of the large manufacturing plants of America But unit after unit has been added with unfailing regu- larity until the original twenty acres have grown to ninety, and the number of employees to more than 1s,o00.
 The first 100000 car was completed October 31, 1916, the second on October 31, 1917, and the third on December 31, 1918.
 Car number 400, 900, which is four door sedan, was allotted to Thomas J Doyle. Dodge Brothers dealer in De- troit.

FIRM BUYS F0RDS
 IN HUNDRED LOTS

Three hundred Ford runabouts in one lot were purchased recently by the Liberty Yeast company of New York City. These cars are to be used by the travelling representatives of that company and were bought only after a thorough investigation into the ser viceability and economy of the Ford car. A number of other cars were considered before the sale was made.

The Romance of Words
By James c. Young
HOu Everyday Expressions Had Their Orioin

r VERY reader OF newspapers has
encountered within the last few
weeks a number OF headlines
reading something like this: "Solons
Pass Dry Law" The word Solon is
flvorite OF the headline writer when
he must designate n legislator, for the
good reason that II Is short and espe-
ciaily appropriate as a general noun
for lawmakers.
Solon was one OF the worlds great
u. G., he won a place among the
Seven Sages OF Greece. Solon worked
out complete system OF reform laws
which did much TO settle clashes be-
tween the poor and the wealthy OF his
time. And ever since that faraway
day lawmakers have been called
Solons, although few Of them measure
up TO the rank OF the man who hrst
bore that name.
To Solou is accredited one OF the
most famous maNims in the world:
"Call no man happy tin he is dead
The circumstances under which this
statement was made are worthy OF
description. Solon paid a visit TO
Croesus, that noted King Of LYDIA,
who was reputed to have been tho
richest man OF all the ancient world.
We still speak OF "A wealthy person as
being rich as Croesus." This Croe-
sus was at the height Of his power
when Solon came to visit him. After
showing the lawmaker the wonders
of his capital and displaying some OF
the wealth that had earned him fame,
Croesus asked Solon If he might not
well be accounted the happiest man
in tho world. The King, OF course,
expected a pretty compliment in re-
turn, but Solon astounded him by
exclaimlng; "Call no man happy IN
he is dead"
All the opportunities OF CroeslB
would not persuade Solon 10 explain
his meaning more fully. But Croesus
| was destined to realize the truth Of
the warning in a tragic manner.
Some few years after the visit OF
Solon, the kingdom OF Lydia was
swept by an invading horde of Per-
SLAMS under the great Cyrus, Mercy
wa no part Of the conqucrors creed
in that time When the proud Croesus
refused to kneel before Cyrus and
implore his favor, the Persian or
dered him burned alive. A funeral
pyre was built, and Croosus placed at
the summit. Just as the flames were
being lighted, Croesus recalled the
words OF solon and. In his turn, eI-
claimed; Call no man happy till he
