OAKLAND
S E NJ S B L E SIX

VERY naturally a variety of reasons enters
into the selection Of the many Oakland
Sensible Six Automobiles now being sold. One
kind of buyer is strongly influenced by the cars
secure comfort; another by its remarkably eff
cient and economical performance; yet another
by its yearround usefulness. and reliability. But
in every Instance there is one reason standing out
boldly above all these-constituting by all means
the most important factor in every sale-lhat is
the pronounced and unmistakable value that the
Oakland Sensible Six represents in the present
car market. This value is one not to be measured
entirely by the moderate Investment the Oakland
entails, nor yet by the advanced design and good
workmanship embodied in its construction, but
also by the fine and enduring manner in which
the car invariably serves, under even the most
strenuous conditions of use.

In question are Mr.. and Mrs. F. r.
Hindman and they are enjoying life In
small apartment of three rooms and
"bathette" at 1915 South Parkway,
which up until a few months ago were
only bare, unattractlve servants quar-
ters over a garage.
Mrs. Hlndman, who Is an expert In
home design and decoration, planned
the Pejuvenatlon of the bare rooms and
with Mr.. Hlndman's help as chief
"handy man" has worked a seeming
miracle with total expenditure of
not more than $1oo.

today confronting numerous people in

Mr. and Mrs. Hndman had been
boarding. The summer approached and
with it came the knowledge that the
people with whom they made their
home would be away for the hot months.
Seeking a congenial boarding place else
where proved a hopeless task. To find
a home or bungalow also was appar-
emily out of the question at any reas-
enable figure. Then Mrs. Hindman hit
upon the plan of taking the servants
quarters over the garage in the rear Of
1915 South Parkway and making an

at first demurred. believing that the
task was impossible. Mrs. Hindman,
however, began to plan and soon Mr.

The results of their Iabors are easily
seen. The bare walls of the rooms
We're papered. the floors stained, and
all preliminary work done in prepare
ton for the new occupants. The rent
for the three rooms with garage space
beneath for Mr.. Hindman's car totals
$33 month and today Mr.. and Mrs.
Hindman can boast of an apartment,
which for attractiveness and homelike
appearance cannot be duplicated in
Memphis for less than SIS monthly
rental.
Mr., and Mrs. Hindman intend later
to build a home of their own. This
new home will contain most probably,
a studio for Mrs. Hindman. Her work
with the production of this apartment
de luxe from such a small beginning,
should prove able evidence of her worth
as an interior decorator and home de-
sgner.
But to start at the beginning of the
transformation. The three rooms were
small with a narrow open porch in
front connecting all. The unsightly
porch with screen wire and a treatment
of inexpensive awnings which roll up
has become one of the features of the
apartment and can be utilized as n
sleeping porch at night as well as a
pleasant sunshinay living room adjunt
during the daytime
To relieve the sense of smallness in
the rooms, the wall paper chosen was
neutral grey, the same pattern being
used in all rooms Screen We're placed
at each window and 10 curtall the
excessive glare from tile sunshine an
attractive lattice 'grilF' for each win
dow was built by Mr. Hindman. what
little air this excludes is more tim
made up by the protection from glare
it affords.
The three rooms were utilized as a
bedroom, combination dining and sit
ting room and a kitchen.

ABSTRACT OF u. S. NOTE
PUBLISHED AT TOXIC

TOXIC, Aug s. by the Associated
Press 1.-The Asahi publishes an alb
stract of the American note regarding
Japanese, occupation of territory as fol-
lows:
"First-Amerca approves Japan's de-
cision to eVaCuate trans Baikalia.
"Second--As regards continued occu-
patton of the Vladivistok region she
reserves expression of her views, owing
to the absence of sufficient nforma-
ton on conditions there upon which
to form an opinion.
"Thrd-America fails to understand
the reason for Japan's occupation of
Saghalen, which has no connection
whatever with the Siberian mainland,
or incidents like the Nikolaievsk mas
sScre occurring there"
Commenting on the note, the Asahi,
reflecting the views apparently obtain
ing among the Japanese generally,
think America misunderstands the 81
beran geographical dispositions and
forms Saghalen island as a distinct dis
trict, whereas the island is really a
part of the Saghalen administrative
region with a gubernatorial seat at
Nikolaievsk.
