A TRIP TO sEDoNA
(By c. J. K.)

Read this little human interest story. Read it because you. are told in advance that it is an advertisement. Even an ad may have its virtues. An ad, properly written is psychological thing, and psychology is now an inn portant branch in all of our educa- tional institutions.
 If you decide to read on and take chance you will find that little thought germ has settled into your sub-conscious "think-tank" that can never be removed nor forgotten, and you will learn psychological lesson without paying tuition.
 Briefly, then
 A man bought new automobile and went to Sedona on trip. Now, there is rock or two, possibly three, in the road to Sedona--also some "thank-you-ma'ams." He returned thanks be-but dazed, bruised, batter ed, and deliriously singing songs of scarlet cows, purple sheep and pink rabbits.
 Another man bought a new automo- bile and went to Sedona on a trip. The same rocks were in the road, the same, though deeper, "thank-you- ma'ams" were in the highway. He retulned-praise be-not daZed, nor bruised, nor battered; but conscious and blithly singing Rocked in the Cradle of the Deep" "Emmet's Lulla- by," and other cradle songs.
 That was the difference.
 The conscious man owned Dodge This exemplifies the fact that the Dodge is the car for this country made for it-electrically correct, and with an acclimated carburetor, war. ranted to play square at any atti- tude.
 The salient points - the proven facts are these: "The Dodge car is the car for the Southwest; "The Dodge car is an investment"-and an invest. ment is an earning thing. Q. E. D Therefore, "the Dodge is the best au. tomobile buy in the world"
 You can not disprove or even doubt these facts; you can not get away from them, because they are facts And you can not forget them-no' the Dodge cars. Sold by Mitchell & Gunter, at the corner of R. R. avenue and Agassiz street, in Flagstaff, who are ready at all times to give you a demonstration. These demonstra tions are warranted painless inasmucf as you will not be inflicted with line of fancy chatter or an attempt tc force the car on you. They believe that the smooth running noiseles. Dodge, in action, will prove to be it. own best salesman.
 DRIVE A DODGE-the car of leas expense.

GREAT OUTLOOK FOR LUMBER

Every Western state is interested in the better outlook for the lumber industry.
 Farmers are pushing building be- cause the same amount of produce will buy twice as much lumber as it would in 1914.
 A 250-pound hog would buy 5.250 shingles in 1914, and the same hog will buy 5000 shingles at present prices of pork.
 In 1914 the money received from sale of 6S0 bushels of wheat would build barn 28 by 3S feet.
 That many bushels of wheat today will build the same barn, thousand bushel grain house, an implement shed, poultry house, and the farmer can buy Ford roadster with the balance.

A SIMPLE CALCULATION

Pat was simply laborer, nothing more, nothing less; but naturally he was witty. While on certain job one day, he noticed his foreman stand ing idly by, seemingly lost in thought, and, as Pat didn't relish the idea of doing all the work himself, he re- marked:
 Anything wrong, sir?"
 "No," replied the foreman, good naturedly. "I was just thinking. You know, Pat, one man scheming is as good as two working"
 "Then, sir" responded Pat, "that being the case, I suggest that we both scheme; that, will be as good as four working"

LIKE A CIVIL WAR GENERAL

Maj. Gen. George Bell, jr., is the only general officer in the A. E. F. who suggests the Civil War. He wears a Napoleon" and his face is full of color, which sets off the white hair and white mustache, and he is absolutely military in appearance. He figured on the Verdun front in sectors adjacent to the west bank of the Mouse, was doing business at Marche- vile, Riaville, and St. Hilaire when the armistice was signed, and now commands the 33d division at Kie- kirch.

A REASONABLE REQUEST

Say, doc!" called Gap Johnson, of Rumpus Ridge, Arkansas, to the phy- sician who was riding past. "You know them sugar-coated pills you gave my wife luther day? B'lieve you said they were p'isinous, or somethin' that-a-way. We'll, anyhow, the baby got hold of 'em last night, and ett the whole blame bottleful."
 Great heavenw calculated the big medicine man. "Is he dead?"
 "No, not so's you could notice it. But the rest of us are mighty night dead. The little cuss yelled till morn ing for more candy, and he's at it till plumb yet. Hain't you got some thin in your saddle-bags that will sorter spoil his appetite

TAKEN BY SURPRISE

Out in Hollywood they have dance once week for the returned soldier boys. All the girls about town are on hand and all the boys from overseas are made welcome. The other night funny incident transpired. danced with the same girl twice and they were exchanging condolences.
 Are you what they call a native daughter?" he asked.
 "Oh, mo-" she murmured. "I'm from Indiana. Hoosier girl"
 The doughboy blushed, and stam- mered--
 "Why--er-I haven't any, unless it is you"

HOW CONSIDERATE

"And why have you never mar ried?" asked Miss Single. Are you woman hater?"
 "Oh, my. now replied Mir. Slip. "You see, I hated to make thousand girls unhappy just to make one of them happy"

PAT AND THE PHANTOM

An Irishman, awakening in the night, saw in his room what he took to be phantom. He seized shotgun, fired at the ghostlike object, then went back to sleep. The next morning he found that the phantom" was noth- ing but his shirt which he had hung over a chair.
 "What did you do, Pat. when you found out your mistaken" asked a friend to whom he told the story.
 q knelt down." he answered, "and thanked the Lord with all my heart that I was not inside my shirt when I fired"

LONGING FOR NEW WORLDS

"So you think mechanical ingenuity has nearly reached its limit"
 "No," replied the man who thinks a great deal without getting much re- suit. But we've conquered the land with wheeled vehicles, the sea with boats and the sky with airplanes. What puzzles me is where we are go- ing next"
The Coconino sun., 1919-06-27
AN EXCELLENT REASON

"No doubt you make your children mind or know the reason why?" said the suave and diplomatice book agent "You betcha!" replied Gap Johnson, of Rumpus Ridge, Ark. And when they don't mind, the reason why is b'cuzz they don't want to and know can't make em."

ITS IDENTITY

"Looky herew chided honest Farm CT Hornbeak. I'm not paying you wages to have you recline on your spine on the grass and fan yourself with your hat. What kind of caper do you call that?"
 "It is my favorite back-to-the-land movement" nonchalently replied the hired man.

DISAPPOINTED

Bacon: Did you see the Leaning Tower of Pisa when you were abroad last year?"
 Egbert: "Oh, yes"
 How did it impress you 2" "Oh,, I was disappointed" Disappointed" 2"
 "Why, yes. I thought it was going to fall and it didn't"

Meat is terribly dear! Fifty cents a pound!"
 "But think how cheap money is, with a 50-cent piece worth only a pound of meat"

Wealth does not bring happiness"
 "Maybe not" replied MT. Dustin Stax. "Maybe the feeling had the other day when I made couple of million in the market wasn't happi- ness; but it was something that an swered the purpose very closely"

THINGS TO WORRY ABOUT
I*%%**%%<*<%****s *s

Undoubtedly the jack is one of the most difficult tools in the cars equip ment to carry. If it is carried loosely in the tool box it is so heavy that is likely to break something, and yet it must be so located that it can be got at easily, when needed. In many cases it is a good plan to carry the jack strapped to the running boards or the footboard.
 Explosions in the muffler are caused by the presence of fuel charge not ignited during the previous stroke of the engine. If these explo- sions are frequent there is basic cause, which will be either too rich a mixture or some trouble in the elec- trical system. Muffler explosions therefore must be taken as a symp- tom of some deeper trouble which should be immediately eliminated.
 Few owners pay the attention to the ball bearings that they deserve. They usually wait until the garage man calls attention to the injury done by breakage. At least once in six months ball bearings should be inspected, the rough or worn balls replaced with per feet ones and the ball run filled with graphite grease.
 The attention of car owners should be directed to the individuality of thinning rubber cement with ordinary gasoline, which contains too much oil to be safe for that purpose. Oil is a deadly foe of rubber. High-test gasoline or bisulphide of carbon are the proper agents for thinning rubber cement.
 Carbon knock may be mistaken fol a knock due to overheating, as it in creases in loudness on hill. and has another symptom in common, that oi causing the engine to run after the switch has been opened. To make sure of this trouble remove a spark plug or valve cap and look into tho cylinder. If the parts are slightly discolored there is nothing to fear, but if there is much carbon it will be ob vious.
 A spark knock occurs only when tho engine is pulling against heavy load as on hill. If the knock disappears when the spark is retarded and come, on again when the spark is advanced it is evident that excess carbon is tht trouble.

Sometimes it is necessary to use temporarily or permanently set of dry cells in compartment where : storage battery was formerly housed. In this case the compartment should be carefully cleaned to remove all the traces of the acid left by the battery. Otherwise the dry cells will be at tackled and quickly destroyed.

Every time a wheel is removed the bearing cup is removed with it, and consequently the bearing must be ad- justed properly when the wheel is re- placed. The best method of doing this

is to turn the bearing up tight and
 then revolve the wheel few times by
 hand, which overcomes any tendency to backlash.
