OPEN ROAD CALLS
 TO TIE AUTOIST

There are signs in the air that go to prove that about this time dennizens of self-propellia are preparing themselves for the open road, which being trans lated means, car owners are getting ready for summer touring and vaca- ton camping trips.
 Winter sports have fallen from grace said MT. Shaulis, manager of the Western Auto Supply agency, 'and people are getting ready to get the full enjoyment of the open country and the beautiful scenery. This is not only confined to Phoenix but has spread throughout our entire nation. Every one is getting out their blue book and mapping out trips.
 'sThe demand for merchandise such as used by the tourist or auto owner on vacations seems to be much greater which proves to my mind that there will be more touring this year than ever I glanced through my year book the other day, and found that it gives total of over one-half million miles of roads all open to the motorist. There are thousands of points of interest de- scribed all of which tend to make the motorist in a hurry to get his car in coalition for summer trips.
 "The sale of touring and camping ac- cessories at our stores has been greater this year than ever before. We have so many new things in stock that tend to make camping and touring more at tractive that our clerks are kept busy demonstrating to prospective custom CTS. {"

SOLD
 IN OAKLAND CAR
 IF CLOSED TYPE

Dr. Harry B. Gudgel. well known local physician, after several days of deliberation. has purchased of the Oakland Arizona Sales company a late model 45-C Oakland coupe, which he will use for business and pleasure pur- poses.
 Salesman R. H. Powell of the Oak land Arizona company, takes great pride in relating his experiences with Dr. Gudgel before the doctor was thoroughly sold on the car with a per- manent top. He was already an Oak land owner and needless to say that he was well sold on the Oakland car, put he couldn't make up his mind that the coupe is the coolest in summer and the warmest in winter until we turned the ear over to him and after driving it three days, he was so thoroughly con- vinced of the many advantages and conveniences offered over the usual touring car or open car, he no longer hesitated to put his name on the dotted line" said Powell.
 The Oakland Sensible Six closed line is one of the most complete to be found. The sedan and coupe have appoint ments of cars selling for from 5000 to S2000 more, and it is pointed out by the Oakland Arizona company that one can own an Oakland closed car for about the same price he would pay for an open car of any other make in the ix-cylinder class.

 EXHAUST SAYS OUT;
 NEW GARAGE SIGNS

Martin Weyant and Dick Wright, who operate the Cactus Garage, which recently moved into it's new quarters at 124-126-12s South First street, be- lieve in signs. But they insist that signs should convey an exact and ap- propriate message. The question re- gently confronted them as to what they would say on the signs that were to go over the large twin doors of their garage. What they wanted to convey was that motorists were to come in one door and go out of the other, but the appropriate words failed to come to them.
 The age-o old masculine source of in spiration and ponderance. namely a thoughtful smoke, was resorted to without avail, and even the salivat- ing of a good generous chew of plug tobacco failed to conjure up the elusive symbolism. So consultation was called, in which the suggestions of the great and the small were considered with equal gravity.
 Many times an oil smeared face masks the creative soul of a genius and many times a greasy cap tops mind that contains something beside spark plugs and carbuertors. This homely philosophy was eloquently at tested to by the fertile flow of sug- gestions that sprang forth during that grave conference.
 Out of the many terms that were coined, some good, some bad and some worse, came one that carried the day as soon as it was voiced. With one acclaim it was decided that Intake" and Exhaust" would best express the desired message to any soul that had ever been touched by the music of purring engine.
 Therefore and henceforth. when a car owner drives in to the Cactus Garage, he will go in via the Intake" and come out via the Exhaust The great number of friends. old and new,

there has been a normal increase in

THE situation is nothing out of

acting third assistant postmaster
general. Postal business of all kinds
has increased largely all over the
country, and it is not strange that
the number of claims for indemnity
for mail lost in transit should be
larger"
Postmaster Chance said that his Of
fce has had no noteworthy increase
in the number of claims for indem
nifty, but that such increase as there
has been is entirely in keeping with
the increased mailing of parcel post
matter both in and out of the local
office.
