 The task of cleaning the rubber and freeing it from these foreign objects Is a long and tedious one, but it is done thoroughly before the rubber is ready to be manufactured into Gates t.es.

 CONVENTION ID BE
 HELD BY HAYNES CO.

Animated with an earnest desire to make the Haynes two-day. outdoor business convention the greatest and most successful concourse of a sales organization ever assembled in Ko- komo, the various committees at the Haynes company, who have the plan ming and organizing of the convent ion in charge, are working to their utnSst capacity to give every Haynes dealer and salesman the surprise of his life on August 30 and 31-
 Ten committees, composed of the ablest and most experienced men in the Haynes office, and each one headed by an executive or official, have been appointed to the task of making an overwhelming success of this great Haynes business convention These committees are now working at top speed, under the efficient supervision of Vice President and General Manager Alton G. Seiberling, and Gilbert U. Radoye, who is in direct charge of the convention. The reports of the various committee heads show that the plans are progressing rapidly and that everything will be in readiness for the big invasion of Haynes dealers and saIesmen on Monday, August 30.
 4 small army of men, under the guidance of the construction commit tee is transforming the fields of the Eeiberling estate into a huge conven- tion ground with all necessary ad- junctS that go to make a success Of an affair of this nature. Nothing is being left undone that will add zest to the occasion and make the stay of the dealers and statesmen an unforgetable event

 In speaking of the convention pros pects. MT Seiberling said last night:
 Everything points to a most sue cessfuI convention on August 30 and 31. and it is my sincere hope thai nracticalIy all Haynes dealers anc saIes1nen will be on hand when the convention opens on the morning o1 August 30 The committees are work ino faithfully and well, and 1t certainly looks as though it is going to be the most wonderful and beneficial affair aver participated 1n-

NEW MODEL FAGEOL
 COMPOUND TRUCK IS
 GREAT ACHIEVEMENT

Complying with the insistent de- mand of its owners and dealers for a fast, powerful. smaller truck winch would fill out it's line and allow it to compete in wide field. heretofore un- touched by it. the Fageol Motors com pany has been working for more than year past on the development of this 1 F ton model. now announced as com pleted and ready for delivery.
 With it's usual careful and pam stalking methods, the company has de- layed the production of this model until it was certain through the most exhaustive study, tests and demon strations, that every detail of the new truck should be equal to the desired requirements and to the high standard of Fageol products.
 The sound Judgment of this policy is fully Justified in the result now at tained, and this new model is d great achievement, possibly Fageofs great est
 In appearance the new 11s ton is distinctly "Fageol,' being scarcely dis tinguishable from the familiar 2-ton model. the frame being the same size as in the larger truck, and it has the same seats, windshield, etc, as is used in all models. It is equipped with cleo tric lights, generator and storage bat tery, and has all other exclusive Fageol features, including the seven speed compound transmission and patented spring oiling system.
 The remarkable efficiency of the seven speed compound in it's wide range and it's exact selection of each measure of power, is particularly en- phasized here in getting most unusual performance from a comparatively small motor, as has been most con clusiyely proven by the tests and dem- onstrations already made.
 This truck works with equal depend ability and satisfaction under all con- ditions; has wonderful speed. great hill climbing capacity and heavy duty power closely approaching the heavier models.
 It is confidently expected that, as soon as this model gets into actlve business activity. it will immediately set many new records in performance, speed and economy"
 Fageol trucks are distributed throughout Arizona by the Ferguson Keeler company who are also the state distributors for the Oldsmobi1e cars and trucks and Apperson cars

bands Activities in Divorce Plea.


To judge from the petition of Mrs.
Goldie Lamoreaux. Manley Lamo-
reaux, proprietor of a restaurant at
S41 u North Kansas avenue. is a man
of pugilistic tendencies. The wife is
asking a divorce on the grounds that
her husband has been guilty of ex-
treme cruelty, and takes up two pages
of legal sized paper in reciting the in
stances in which he has used his fists
to punish her.
In October, 1918, five months after
their marriage. Lamoreaux struck her.
she says, and knocked her out the
front gate of the Dennis Bergen home
in Jefferson county. Since then he
has struck and beat her at least a
dozen times. she declares. backing her
eyes and fracturing her nose.
On Thursday night, July l, she de-
clares he struck her above the left
left arm, which he bruised. At other
times, she declares, he has struck her
on the chin with such force as to
break her teeth. In addition Mrs.
Lamoreaux says her husband has &C
cused her of intimacieS with other
men.
She claims he sold her $3.50 dia-
mond ring and spent the money on
himself. She understands the restau-
rant business and he does not. she
says declaring that it was thru her
skillfuI management that the business
proved a success and a remunerative
occupation.

Other Topekans who were spending
their holiday in comfort and leisure
were able to receive bulletins over the
telephone thru State Journal connec-

agIow the entire day.
Some Topekans apparently were too
easily planted in porch chairs and
swings to take the trouble to call The
