Tucker Makes Record
Sales Durinu Show Week

Chas A. Tucker, of the Nebraska
Oldsmobile company, resolved early
in the winter to make 1920 a record
breaker so far as the sale of Olds-
mobile trucks was concerned.
Tucker is one of the most enthussd
truck dealers on the automobile row
and has bent every effort toward
educating farmers and business men
to the advantage of the modern mo-
tor truck. 4
According to MI. Tucker, their
high record for truck sales at the
show in one day was Fl car loads.
These sales, of Course, were made
to dealers who have entered the
truck business in earnest.
The Nebraska Oldsmobile COM
,pany is planning on sending solid
train load of trucks from Lansing,
Mich. to Omaha shortly.

Custom Built Cars Are
Decided Hit at the Show

in discussing the results of the
Automobile show, which closed last
night, R. w. Craig, vice president of
the c. ]. Dutton Automobile COM
pany, said that in connection with
their exhibit one of the most pleas
ing features was the enthusiasm of
the general public toward the GUS
tom-buift idea The Kissel cars of
both the open and closed types are
all custom-built.
This applies to the chassis as
much as to the bodies. Mr.. Craig
says that during the past three years
people have become educated up to
higher quality and in practically all
classes of merchandise are willing to
pay a fair pSice for quality, realizing
that in the end it is much cheaper
and more-satisfactory. This applies
particularly to motor cars. The
custom-built idea as exemplifed in
the Kissel line has made direct ap-
peal to the automobile prospect who
is looking for combination of conf
fort, appearance and reliability.
Franklin Products. incorporated,
Of Syracuse, N. Y, was recently in

SKILLED men TO
ASSEMBLE new
POSTWAR CAR
Force Of Experts on Hand
When Production Starts
In the LaFayette
Factory.

In the near future, when produc-
ton starts at the Indianapolis plan,
of the Lafayette Motors company
highly-skilled workmen will con-
struct and machine the chassis parts
and assemble the new postwar car
designed by D. Mccall White.
I'VE have been pleasantly sur
prised," said Z. c. Howard, vice
president of the Lafayette company,
"by the little difficulty we have en-
countered in securing shop organi-
zation, especially in view of the fact
that ar---nobile mechanics and body
builder. are now at premium.
History has run true to form and
repeated. Like the motoring public
and the motoring trade, experienced
automobile craftsmen have assumed
that the new Lafayette is to be fine
and have sought to be identified with
its manufacture.
1T is our good fortune that ex-
pert and Experienced automobile
workers take exceeding pride, in
their association with quality cars.
If such were not the case, we might
now be facing the problem OF
getting men of sufficient skill to
build and assemble an automobile
to the Lafayette standard. For the
fine details of any high-grade car are
inexorably governed by the indi-
vidual skill with which it is made.
"Many of the Lafayette workmen
have come to Indianapolis from
other automobile plants, and, too,
without solicitation. Others have
gained invaluable experience in air.
plane motor shops, government
aviation camps and on French fly
ing fields. All OF them have been
carefully selected. We have in
sisted that they be highly trained
specialists in their individual lines" /"
With more than three-quarters of
The machinery installed and with the
factory personnel almost completed,
officials are confident that produc-
hon will start in May and that cars
will be ready for delivery to pur-
chasers in June.

Sales at Auto Show Very

The Automobile show was very

dent of the Bonney-Yager Auto COM

Man Driving Cole 8 to
Compete With Aviator
In Contest of
$50 Miles.

Thirty miles west OF Denver,
where Lookout mountain overhangs
Bear Creek canyon, is the goal Of a
race between two OF Nebraska's big
automobile men. \
For the initial opening Of Trout
dale, new summer resort just be-
ing completed, owned by H. E.
Sidles, president of the Nebraska
Buick Auto company, and promi-
nent> business men of Omaha, Lin-
coin, Sioux City, Des Moines, St.
Joseph and Kansas City, race has
been planned between an airplane
and an automobile.
John Markell, Dodge agent of Lin
coin, who, in connection with, his
Dodge agency, has entered the
Afro game, will endeavor to fly from
Lincoln to Troutdale, distance OF
$50 miles, in less time than his OPP
ponent, Buster DeBroWn, who will
drive Cole Afro 8. Buster De.
Brown is Cole agent for Nebraska
and Iowa.
"Troutdale in the Pines" we'll un-
der way to completion, with accom-
medaticns for 800 guests, is located
at the edge of Bear Creek at Ever
green, Colo. Denver people have
been anxiously waiting its opening
because of their opportunity to 60
to one of the pretdest> spots in the
west, surrounded by every outdoor
environment.
Should this Dodge agent win this
contest, it is very likely that he will
pass the auto field to enter one with
more thrills, while if Mr.. DeBrown,
in his Cole s, should be the victor,
he would no doubt ask the Cole
factory to change the name Cole s
to Afro s.

TRUCK DEMAND
|. SOON TO EQUAL
that FOR CARS
Expert Says Sales Will Only
Be Limited by Production
In the Near
Future.

c. f. Rauze, sales promotion
manager for the General Motor
Truck company OF Pontiac, Mich,
was a visitor during the week Of
the Omaha Automobile show.
Rauze, who is one of the pioneers
in the truck industry, has studied
the development since the first
trucks were used for commercial
purposes and is very firm in his be-
lief that the sale of commercial
vehicles will soon equal, if not ex-
ceed, the sale OF passenger cars. Mr..
Rauze believes that the sale Of
trucks will only be limited by pro-
.duction.
In the early stages of the truck
industry, it required a great deal of
persuasion on the part of the factory
to induce dealers to buy trucks in
considerable numbers. This situa-
ton, however, is now reversed and
in numerous cases the dealers are
unable to get sufficient number OF
trucks.
.\ The American farmers are respon-
sible for this condition to a large ex-
tent. Farmers are now equipped to
realize the advantage Of the motor
truck, both from a standpoint Of
saving time and labor.
Mr.. Rauze evidenced quite an in
terest in the First National Motor
Truck reliability contest, which will
start from Omaha some time during
June. 1t was his opinion that run
of this sort would bring the manu-
facturers and the buyers to a COM
mon ground where a real business
like consideration of trucks could be
accomplished!

especially swhen l had been hurt by
Dicky's real or fancied neglect.
There even have been times, but
only for a flceting minute or two,
when / have wondered, woman-like,
whether, after all, might not have
been happier with my mothers
choice than with my temperamental
husband. But this glimpse of the
possibilities of cruelty in Jacks cold
wrath made me glad that it was not
l who had married him. Better a
dozen of Dicky's temperamental
RACES than this icy wrath of Jacks,
which shrewdly guessed did not
pass in few minutes as Dicky's
| tantrums doA =.
What was Harriet Braithwaite
saying TO him? The question buzzed
in my brain even as my thoughts
roved from the present to the past
and back again. That she meant
to do her utmost to remove the
obsession from Jacks brain and pre-
serve the visit he had threatened to
cut short I knew by the look on her
face when she had led him away.
But would she succeed in her mis-
sion? ! was sure that the thought
was in the minds ,pf the other peo-
pie in the room also, although not
one of them save myself knew the
special significance of Harriet
Braithwaite's taking the initiative in
the matter. The rest simply saw
big-hearted, capable woman doing
her utmost to save delicate situa-
ton.
l think we all held our breaths as
we saw the two coming back toward
the veranda, moving slowly. talking
rapidly. As they came up the steps
Harriet Braithwaite said carelessly:
Katherine, you really ought to
give your husband course in COM
parative values. 1t took me 10
years, however, to. train Edwin, SO
I suppose you still have time. He
had actually figured out a lot of
things that would call him back
to the city. and ! was able to show
him in every instance how they
could be arranged by long distance
telephone. and give you the chance
for a few days visit with Margaret
and Richard. I really feel quite tri-
umphant, and you'll never know how
heroic I am repressing the exclama-
ton, isn't that just like a man?
"If you did choke it back it's the
first time in 80 years, can bear
witness" her big husband inter
posed dryly, and l knew that he had
picked up her cue in order to make
things smoother for Jack.
l watched by Drother-cousin's
face narrowly. 1t was a most hui
initiating situatiori even if brought
about by his own foolish anger, and
I wondered how he would manage
it. Whatever Harriet Braithwaite
had said to him had evidently deeply
moved him, for his face was white
with suppressed emotion, although
the somber anger had fed from it.

HOW TO ACQUIRE HAIR BEAUTY

You can enjoy a delightful sham
poo with very little effort and for
very trifling cost, if you get from
your druggists a package of can
throx and dissolve teaspoonful in
cup of hot water. This makes a
full cup of shampoo liquid, enough
so it is easy to apply it to all the
hair instead of just the top of the
head. Your shampoo is now ready.
Just pour little at time on the
scalp and hair until both are en-
tirely covered by the daintily per-
fumed preparation that thoroughly
dissolves and removes every bit of
dandruff, excess oil and dirt. After
rinsing the hair dries quickly with
a fluffiness that makes it seem
heavier than it is, and takes on a
rich luster and a softness that
makes arranging it pleasure.

My HEART, and
My HUSBAND
By ADELE GARRISON

l have always known that Kath-
erine was woman of rare poise and
sterling worth. But I never have
had half SO much cause to admire
hfr as did during the few minutes
which elapsed between the de-
partur of Jack and Mrs. Braithwaite
to the garden and their return.
1t was Situation to try the
nerves Of any woman. Yet there
was absolutely nothing in her de-
meanor to indicate that her husband
had just ;ndulged in a disgraceful
exhibition of his i'll humor, and that
she expected to be compelled to cut
short her planned visit almost be-
fore it had begun.
She rerewed acquaintance with
Mother Graham, talked cheerily to
big DR.. Braithwaite, even answered
laughinglv and with every appear
ance of zest the sallies Dicky sent
in her direction. But once when she
was near me and knew herself un-
observed she caught my hand in
hers as it hung by my side, and
fairly hurt me with the crushing
ferceness of her grasp.
The next instant she had dropped
it and was answering fondly the
eager questions with which Marion
was plying her. Her face was
bright and as animated as if she had
not care in the world. But in the
depths of the soft brown eyes which
make Katherine's face so attractive
| | read read something very akin to heart
The anger I had felt at my
brother-ccusin's actions changed to
puzzled wonder. 1t was not like the
old Jack I-had known to bring such
look into> the eyes of the woman
he loved. Then like stiletto thrust
the question dashed into my brain:
How did know what possibilities
of cruelty or kindness Jack might
display to the woman he had mar.
ried? No doubt Dicky's girl friends
would never believe that he could
possibly hurt the woman he loved
in the many ways that, he had since
we were married. y
The thought was a salutary one,
however, the exhibition / had just
seen my brother-cousin give still
more salutary for me. Woman-like,
I never have been able quiet quite to
forget that Jack cared for me or
imagined he did>in the days before
he met Katherine. The dramatic
scene which he had inadvertently
staged in Broquin's cafe when he
learned for the FIRST time that | had
married Dicky during his long abb
sence was apt to fash up in my
photograph gallery of recollections,
