AND
MUSIC FIRST
Crane Places Emphasis on I'M
pOrtant Items in Home
Making.

The Importance Of music and good pic
situres in the home was emphasized by
{ Ross Crane In his Better Homes lecture
4 yesterday afternoon at Tomlinson Hall.
"You may think me insane" he told
4 his audience, "but the first thing l should
have would be music-even before we get
rugs, or curtains or a davenport. Wen
get .the music first, while We have the
money"
s Since he was discussing the home
making problems Of newly married cou-
pies Mr.. Crane considered a piano too
aexpensive, he said, so he suggested a
moderately priced talking machine. The
next important thing, he said, is pic
ture. mot necessarily a costly painting
sibut at least an artistic reproduction
ID Az THIS point, the lecturer introduced
& beautiful painting in harmony with the
color scheme of its other furnishings. and
4 observed that while his proposal might
seem extravagant, the spiritual side Of
y hone-making should not be overlooked.
Next Mr.. Crane took up the matter of
rugs. draperies and other items and when
THE room was furnished complete-with
good furnishings, he pointed out-the
total cost was about 5000

Nationwide interest has developed in the record breaking run made last week by the Studebaker Light Six touring car between Los Angeles and this city Carrying a cargo of special delivery mail from the coast city, the Studebaker Light Six traversed the mile distance in IS hours and 16 minutes. elapsed time.
 TeIegrams and letters of congratu- lation have been pouring into both the Stakeholder office at Los Angeles ard to Barret & Pottberg, Inc, the Stude- baker distributors in this vicinity. These two organizations united to promote the record breaking run.
 Jack Burns of the service depart r,ent of Barret & Pottberg, who drove more than half the distance, was made particularly happy by a rer- sonal message wired by A. R. Erskine. president of the Stakeholder Corpora tion of America. That message read:
 "Heartiest congratulations on break ing the Los Angeles record to smithereens. You are an intreped driver and worthy to pilot the World s Greatest Light Six. Entire Stude- baker organization joins me in this Wire complete details Sincerely, Erskine."
 Interest in the Light Six has been pronounced during the past week, ac- cording to Charles J. Pottsberg. sales manager of Barret & Pottberg. Those who inspected the Stakeholder mail car while it was on display in this city and compared it point by point with another Light Six are especially en- thusiastic, it is stated. The nail car is absolutely identical with any other Studebaker Light Six with the ex- ception that the former had wind shield, top and lenders removed.
 More remarkable than the excep- tionally high speed average main tained by the mail car on it's record trip, is considered the wonderful con- difion the car was in after the grue1- ling dash across the desert. Aside from repacking the water pump which sprung a leak during the trip over, not a single adjustment was made prior to returning to the coast. The run back to Los Angeles was made in more or less leisurely man. l ner. Another car accompanied it and motion pictures were made along tle | way. These pictures will be released l through one of the motion picture news agencies and will be shown all over the country. They vii be showr at a Phoenix theater at an early d ate
 Many inquiries have been received ct the Studcbaker dealers regarding l the nature of the tire trouble en- l ccuntered along tiie way during the test run. Six tire changes were re- quired causing total loss of 1 hour end 46 minutes Hadsit not been fol these delays the mail car would have
