product has eliminated distance. Iso- lated communities are now brought into close touch with the outside world. Market day is no longer dread to the farmer, for the city which was once a long days journey away. is now but few hours dis tance.
 The Bible says, 'and he jou-neyed into far country'-had the tr;-seler been equipped with a Ford car he would, in all probability, have made the trip to the far country" in about and hour and half. Of course, a camel or a jackass was hardly known as a time-saver. and the jackass's temperament sometimes was dis agreeable to say the least.
 The first automobile was not a gasoline propelled affair. It was more or less diminutive steam engine and was running in England in the eight eenth century. It was known as the steam wagon" From this idea of transportation the locomotive really developed, and instead of progressing along the automobile lines as we know them today. the steam wagon" later became the English locomotive.
 However. in France. toward the close of the eighteenth century an engine was invented to drive car riages, and either gas or petroleum was used as fuel. It may truthfully be said that the first gasoline auto mobile was built in France During this time factories for the manufac- ture of automobiles were built both in this country and in France but American mechanical genius soon swept far ahead. It has taken less than 50 years for the automobile to develop. and less than 25 years for the output to grow into millions an- nually.
 The story of the Ford car has been told and retold, but the part played in the development of automotive transportation and it's benefits to hu- manity and civilization will always be told on the pages of history where the progress of man is written to be handed down through the ages The New International Encyclopedia shows two photographs of automo- piles. one of which is Ford, and under it there are these lines: "A standardized car capable of render ing good service" And the Interna : tional Encyclopedia explains in just one word the whole idea of the Ford car, Service: service to man. which necessarily involves mans progress and happiness.

LOW EXPENSE IF
 HARMON TRAVEL SHOWN BY TRIP

Economy and comfort have been the outstanding features of the Mar mon 34 in recent transcontinental trips that have been reported in detail by enthusiastis travellers.
 One of these, Frank c. Webb, tells in figures of the success of his 2342 mile trip from San Francisco to Denver by way of Portland. A care full summary of the expenses of the journey, including gasoline. oil, hotels and incidentals. was $249.96. an aver age of practically 8 1k cents a mile for each of three men who made the trip together. The railroad fare alone would have exceeded this by more than s25.
 A Marmon roadster was the me- dium Of travel. A log of the trir shows stops made at Redlands, Grant Pass, Albany, Portland, Pendleton Weiser, Pocatello, Rock Springs and Denver The longest days drive was from Pocatello. Idaho. to Rocl Springs, Wyo., a distance of 31s miles, The gasoline consumed amounted to 1ss gallons for the 243: miles, or an average of 12.38 miles per gallon.

LEWIS LOC CABIN
 RESORT POPULAR

Many camping and outing parties are sweeping down on Lewis Log Cabin Resort in the Sierra Ancho mountains, according to reports reaching Phoenix from that point. The proximity of this resort to Globe and Miami makes 1t mecca for mo- torists living in those districts. while at the same time it offers a delight full spot for Phoenicians who can make the trip in a day easily over the Miami Superior highway.
 The road to the Lewis Log Cabin Resort turns off the Globe to Roose- welt highway. passing to the east of Roosevelt lake and soon penetrating the dense forests of the Sierra An- cho mountains.
 The condition of the roads is re- ported as excellent.
 There are several log cabins at the resort, and one very large cabin which is used for a general assem- bly, and amusement cabin, wbdle tents can easily be pitched to <sc- cemmodate those who find the cab ins full. Plenty of accommodations are available. however, and reserva- tions can be made direct with Mrs. Lewis by phoning the U. s. Forest Superintendent at Roosevelt.

LITTLE TIME |S REQUIRED I ]
 MOUNT HASSLER

There has been much discussion as to the length of time required to equip Ford car or Dodge Brothers car with Hassler shock absorbcrs.
 Ordinarily a garage will have to take an hour or so to do the work But that 1t can be done in less time by practice. and a natural skill is shown by the remarkable record of Howard Douglas of Los Angeles. who has repeatedly given exhibition in- stallations in one-half hour or lesss
 At one such demonstration MT. Douglas completed the work in IS minutes. This is the record, and has never yet been equalled by any other man. MT. Douglas does nothing else but apply Hassler Shock Absorbers, and has developed his method to such point of perfection that there is not lost motion.
 Of course, dealers ordinarily can not hope to equal this time. and they are justified in taking an hour or two to do the work. But it is not such a tremendous job and does not tie up the car. as so many car owners be- ieys," said MT. Douglas.
 Tt is almost as easy to have a set of Hassler Shock Absorbers applied as to have new set of tires put on.''

GOODYEAR DROPS PRICE IF SMALL SIZED CAS|NGS

An announcement that will be well comed by more than 600,000 owners of small cars here in the west is that which has just been made by the Goodyear Tire and Rubber company of California to the effect that the price of Goodyear 30 by 35z single cure clincher tires has been reduced to s13.95, effective July 1.
 Taking into consideration the immense improvements which have been made in these tires" says J. K. Hough. manager of automobile tire sales, .tand considering their greatly increased inbuilt mileage. the con- sumner has never before been offered such value not even by Goodyear. as is in these tires at s13.95.
 This extremely low price enables every small car owner. regardless of the size of his pocketbook, to ride on Goodyear quality, backed up by the Goodyear guarantee of satisfac- tion.
 This low price Is made possible by the marked increase in the produc- tion of these tires to meet the de- mand of small car owners through out the west.
 'It stands to reason that a com pany that has built 5,000,000 of these tires during the last five years should knew how to make such a tire as nearly perfect as possible, and at the lowest price consistent with the quail ity of the workmanship and materials entering into its construction.
 "The- price of Goodyear Single Cure Clinchers is now at point lower th9n it has ever been before. and their mileage delivering propensities are considerably greater. Five years ago a tire that would give 4,000 miles was scarce. but today 5000 and 10000 miles from Goodyear single cure tires are by no means uncommon. At this new price the consumer is getting more than twice the mileage of five years ago. and at a greatly reduced cost, so that it is no longer necessary for him to experiment with unknown quality

FORDS PLAY BIG PART
 IN AUTO DEVELOPMENT

the steam engine was not developed until almost two centuries later. To the Old World must go the credit for the earlier development of the rail- road, but America may justly lay claim for developing modern automo- tive transportation facilities. The automotive transport is greater in its way, than the railroad. It's essential ity now is unquestionable. When the big guns back of the German lines were laying waste vital rail lines in France, light auto trucks. product of New World genius, were hurrying to the front lines with cargoes of food stuffs and supplies Frequently roads were almost impossible because of heavy smelling. but the auto truck "got there"
 Transportation has played great role in the wars of the world, the army having the best transportation system usually being assured of vic tory. But, when wars became less frequent, benefits of transportation weer applied to the works of man. Civilization is marked with progress in transportation. The automotive

Trun1an Says Many People Preparing
 To Tour Arizona

''The See Arizona First movement, inaugurated by the local motor car dealers is producing wonderful re- suits already" stated Bob Truman. at his garage on South Second ave- nue. yesterday. We have had sev- eral important oyerhauling jobs the past two weeks for parties who were preparing to tour the northern part of the state. and who had in past years always taken their vacation outing in California. The results of this movement will be felt. in my opinion, very strongly by the cities and towns of northern Arizona. And I believe they will utilize every ad- vantage to impress upon the tourist the hospitality of their respective communities that word of mouth ad- vertising will be started on a big scale for next seasons touring"
 Truman states that. contrary to ex- pectations he held several weeks ago when he opened up at his new loca- tion, business has kept up to a very healthy point. New equipment and tools have been added to his shop facilities. He is specializing on the overhauling of Cadillac and Marmon cars.

.b|G J. ]. LINER
 CARRIES SAVAGE CORD SHIPMENT I

The sailing of the new Shipping Board liner Golden State, 'one of the great 535 type ships to be allotted in the Pacific, was an event of much interest in coast shipping circles. The enthusiastic send-off given this huge liner at San Francisco was probably eclipsed, however, by the interest and welcome accorded it in Hongkong. A cablegram received by Arthur E. Kelley, manager of the ex- port department of the Spreckels Savage Tire company, from their Hongkong agent. indicates how cor dial was the welcome of the Orient to this ship and it's cargo. The ca blegram follows:
 Golden State with first shipment Savage cords arrived eighteenth; ship and tires given enthusiastic well come ;one thousand visit ship for .n- spection first day"
 One of the most valuable assets of American foreign traders is the friendship and admiration of the prominent Chinese. They are quick to interest themselves in the pro- ducts of American factories and in this example promptly express their appreciation of eua1ity by their cor dial reception of American tires and American ships

Hold fast, Palace goers and prepare for your biggest laugh; Charlie Chaplin i'll The Kid,' six reel farcial produc- tion, is to be the big laughing screen feature for Sunday, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. To see Chaplin at the Palace is to see him at his best for in addition to all the fun that Charlie makes on the screen every one of his antics, every hilarious situation is en- phasized by. carefully studied musical and mechanical effects. In every par ticular the Palace staff has devoted as much time and study to the creation of proper musical and mechanical effects for this greatest of all film farces as is usually given for the most important dramatic productions. As for the laugh ing efficiency of The Kid" it over shadows everything in the film line i'll which the famous Charlie Chaplin has appeared. To attempt to describe the fun artistry of Chaplin in the six rot- ous reels of The kid' is beyond word power; it is hilarity and birth i'll their superlative degrees.

TWO IMPORTANT
 DECISIONS GIVEN IN COMPENSATION LAW
Injured Worker Must Be Paid While Amputation Is In
 Doubt, Says Court.

In h1s op1nlon finding no error in the dismlssing of an appeal from the decis- lon Ot the compensation commissioner of the Fifth district by Judge Webb of the Superior court of New Haven coun- ty, Chief Justice Wheeler of the Supreme Court of Errors this week declared that an employe should not only receive compensation for the loss of some limb or member, but should receive compensation for the period of incapacity during which 1t was not definitely known whether or not the limb would have to be amputated.
 Chief Justice Wheeler had made this ruling i1f a previous opinion, and it was quoted by Judge Webb. D. s. Pe1grift, counsel for the Connecticut Brass Co.,, and others who were the defendants i'll all action brought by Maurice Wrenn, intinated in his argument for an ap- peal that such an interpretation would lead employers and insurers of employ CTS to cause the amputation of inj ured members immediately, instead of en- deavoring to effect cure as Is now done To this argument, Chief Justice Wheeler replied:
 We are not impressed with the argu- ment of the defendant that this inter pretation of the act will lead employers and insurers of employers to cause the amputation of the mi ured member in stead of seeking to effect i'll all cases a cure before resorting to amputation. Our faith in the humanity and integrity of employers and insurers and in the good faith and professional honor of surgeons forbids our adoption of so re- pulsive conclusion" All concurred.
 We have read the evidence with care and deliberatiOn and reached the conclusion that the jury might well have found the contrary and reasonably have drawn the inference that they so testi- fled for the purpose of making 1t appear that the son was not at the time of the accident engaged i'll the execution of de- fendant's business and thus testified to help the defendant to secure a verdict" said Chief Justice Wheeler, in finding error and or1ering a new trial in the 1 action brought " Joseph Russo for in juries suffered from the alleged negli- | gence of an employe of Thomas E. | McAviney, which was originally brought | to the superior court for New Haven county and tried by the jury before | Judge Hinnan, in which verdict and l judgment were for the plaintiff.

CIGAR MAKERS
 REJECT PROPOSAL
 TO REDUCE WAGE
Cant See Bosses Plan to Cut
 Prices and Save ; the Tax.

A proposal by the cigar manufactur- CTS association that the cigar makers accept a wage reduction of $3 a thOus- and and the manufacturers would cut $1 off the price of cigars and thus stimulate trade was rejected by the workers at a crowded special meeting held in Hermann Sons hall on Tues day night. The proposal, if accepted, would have brought the cheaper grade cigars back into Class C with a con- sequent reduction of $3 in the revenue tax. This would go to the manufac- turers and more than compensate them for the $2 they were willing to drop and leave the whole brunt of the cut on the worker
 At a meeting in Hartford on Sunday representatives of New England locals Of the C1garmakers union met and dis CuSsed similar wage reduction prOpOSi tions and agreed that the present is no time for such action unless stock and other costs go down and stay down simultaneously. At the meeting here Tuesday night the workers denied the reduction would stimulate sales claiming that the slump i'll the sales of cigars is but part of the general business de- pression and unemployment, which na- turally was followed by falling off i'll SlllOhlllS DCNduSC lllC SCllCl cal Illl Ol smokers have not now the money with which to purchase cigars.
 As another and perhaps the principal reason for their action, the workers state that when general business in wages were being made during and after the war, the cigarmakers received but 45 per cent. altogether more than was paid in 1916 and that living costs are still from 70 to 80 per cent. higher than they were then and therefore as a matter of simply living it IS not possi- ble tc accept any reduction in wages now.
 In the rejection of the proposal it was, however, made plain that the work CTS will at such time as economic con- ditions warrant, gladly meet with the employers to make such readjustment of | wages as may be then possible and | proper The action of the New Haven local is i'll line with action taken by Boston, Springfield, and other New England locals where similar reduction of wages has been proposed. So far there has not been a single reduction Ill a wage scale in the cigar industry any where in this section.
