SIXTEEN YEARS OLD-EVEN
HORN TOOTS.

Ford Bought in 1908 Still Doing
Service in Oregon and Washington.
A rear tonneau door, two cylinder
touring car manufactured by the
Ford Motor Co. in 1913, the year OF
that company's organization, and in
use since that time is still "on the
Job" 1t is an eight horse power car,
has a seventy eight inch wheel base,
five gallon gas tank and is owned
by A. c. McCarty of Portland, Ore
gan. Of course the Ford isn't exact
" of the latest lines and 1t is be-
ginning to wear slightly, but mech
anically-why even the aged brass
horn works. The machine is now be-
inc driven on business trips through
Oregon and Washington by McCarty
who dosen't expect to be in the mar
ket for a new Ford for some years
to come since he's kinda got acquaint-
ed with the old one.

BOSTON NEWS|ES CONDEMN PLAYERS

BOSTON, Sept. 30-Newboys of Bos- ton today put themselves on record as condemning the Chicago baseball play CTS whose corruption in the last world series, they said. struck a murderous blow at the kids game" They were as quick, however,to recognize the men who stood by the best principles of the sport and formal resolutions which they adopted commended Ray Schalk and Little Dick" Kerr for their man. ly stand against the Benedict Arnolds of baseball.
 It was a serious discussion for the boys, some of whom knew the play CTS intimately. One had carried bats for Joe Jackson to obtain admission to the grounds when the outfielder played there, and another had borrowed the glove of Eddie Cicotte for fielding practice while the pitcher took his turn at bat. All had followed close- ly the exposures at Chicago which has ! toppled over their ideals and a special meeting of the Roosevelt Newsboys'
 club was called between morning and
 evening to consider the matter. Their resolution follows;
 Resolved, That the eight White SoS players be condemned and punished ! for their murderous blow at the kids
 game; and be it further resolved, that Ray Sehalk and Dick Kerr be com
