WALT MASON MAY

SOME TIME SOON

Walt Mason, Kansas poet, is to visit
La Jolla soon. From Imperial Valley.
comes demand that this famous,
farmer poet visit us before he returns.
The editor of the Imperial Enter
prise even outdoes Walt by saying;
We expect him to come and be con-
quered and we also expect him to give
Imperial Valley few verses. In fact
We're waiting in this sunny vale for
4Mason's writing arm; We hope he
brings bunch of kale and settles on
a farm. We know the kindly Walters
gift that circles round the globe; we
hope he scribbles for a shift about
our farmed abode. We hope he comes
and sees the crops we raise here all
the year and rhymes it to his Kansas
yaps so they will settle here. We
want to show him all our hay, our cot
ton and our corn. He'll gaze with
wonder for day cause he won't see
a barn. Our Holsteins. Guernseys,
Jerseys fair, will fill old Walt with
milk and make him reel with joy
our air, feelin' fine as silk. We wait
our Kansas friend with glee, we feel
he'll learn a lot about our western
pigs and hens and weather when it's
hot. While Walter isn't youthful now
back on his Kansas loan, he'll prance
and dance and kick the sky with
Gold State his home. Hey, Walt, you
writin', fat old cuss, when you come
out our way. if you don't stop We'll
raise fuss-El Centro wants to say.
And all Imperial Valleys sons and
daughters and the babes will rise to
shake you by the hand when you
land in our glades. Come out and
spend a week or year and see our
handsome farms, our forty. crops and
water ways, our men with robust
arms. Our maids and matrons will
find joy to make you feel, at home. so
start your flivver westward, no! We're
waiting for poem. ST

BANTAM CHAMPION
NOW USING BRAINS
TO EDUCATE SELF

Pete Herman, worlds bantamweight
champion, is using his brains. Not
that the clever youngster has ever been
accused of failing to make them work
for him-his title in the fistic world
proves that-but now he is using them
in new direction. Pete doesn't fear
for his laurels for some time to come,
but he sees future beyond the ring
when his punch deserts him. So he
has turned to books. He wants to be
civil engineer and he is going about
it in the self-educative way.
It didn't look quite natural to see
Pete coming out Of the New York pub
III clibrary with an armfull of books.
but that's just; what happened yester-
day. Pete just had to be asked about
this new move but he wasn't shy when
telling of it. He had concealed it ever
since he quit as boxing instructor to
the gobs at the Algiers naval training
station near New Orleans, his home
port.
Pete admitted he was studying and
gave credit to the American Library
association which is conducting a
"book for everybody" movement for
which it is raising $4,000, 900 without
an intensive campaign. One of the
workers in the A. l.. A. war service
at the naval station first interested
him in the possibilities and he took the
tip. He shot high and decided on civil
engineering for profession after he
had quit the ring.
"Can't fight forever" said Pete yes
terday, "and when I'm through I'm
going to have something to fall back
on besides the little pile I've got salted
away, and that's why I'm reading all
sorts Of books on civil engineering"

NEW OVERLAND ACME
OF SIMPLE MAKEUP

Simplification a constantly increas-
ing demand in these days of necessary
fool proof and trouble-proof automo-
biles probably has never been realized
to a greater extent than in the new
Overland four models of the WHY'S.
Overland company.
For example there are only five
units in the assembling of the entire
car. These are the power plant, in
cluding clutch. transmission and uni
versal joint: the frame and the fam
Gus three point triplex suspension
spring unit; the rear system, the body
and the dash.
The entire assembly requires less
than so bolts. The control mechanism
on the Overland four Is centered on
the instrument or keyboard. There
are no wires or rods or pipes attached
to the body. As an illustration, the
entire rear axle may be moved by the
release of four bolts.
The design of the Overland four
makes its units and parts so accessi-
BILE that repairs can be made with a
minimum expenditure of both time
and money. But in its strides towards
simplification of design, the Overland
four has increased the protection to
IHONInS pdilS pAOPCAh
For instance, clutch, transmission and
universal joint all are inclosed with
the motor in a single unit. This per-
mits fabrication of all these units
from a single oil supply and gives dis
tinct economy in oil consumption.
This tendency towards simplifica-
tion has eliminated from the Overland
four the oil and water pumps. The
oil, for example, is circulated by au-
tomato pressure. The water is circu-
lated by the thermo-syphon system or
natural cooling method.
The simplicity of design of the entire |
car results not only in fewer parts, |
which of course, makes for lighter
weight, but makes it feasible to STAN |
dardize the highest grade of steels for
every part. 1t has also made possible |
with Willys-O Overland quantity pro-
duction to make parts so minutely cor
rect that they are interchangeable be-
cause they are uniform.
This simplified design means not |
only fewer parts TO be manufactured |
and assembled. but affords oportunity /
tor better methods. closer inspection |
and generally more satisfactory re-
suits.

that he had some of the canary's extra

better put his cage in the warm, snug
cabin where the canary was and where
