DETAILS OF NASH
 TRIP ID TAHOE COME ID M 'ALEER

The tale of the Nash six pathfinder that last week bIazed Its way over the PIacerviils route and attained the coveted honor of being the first car Into Lake Tahoe this season was re- ceived by Joe Miller this week from the members of the victorious crew that won a five-day battle with the snow.
 Snow from two to twelve feet deep. dropping the car down mountainsides by block and tackle. building tempo rary roads and dctours-these were some of the outstanding features in the heroic effort of the Nash six party to be first into the Lake over the route that every year Is traversed oy thousands of motorists pleasure bent for the popular recreation points ci the Sierra.
 At the time of departure of fhs 1 Nash six on its adventure. with Ted O'Day as the pilot. this route was of | ficialiy closed to all travel. burie< under the rnovs of one of the heavt. est winters on record. Advices wer' to the effect that the loads wouit continue closed for another month Approaching the task ahead. O'Da, gathered about him a veteran crew
 consisting of l.. Lonkey. A E. Corci
 and W. Corcie-
 In addition. a Nash Quad truck wa loaded down with provisions. heddins lumber for road building and roal
 tools. When the Nash six set ou from here. accompanied by its suppl
 train. it was equipped to stand an,
 possible siege
 o'Day himself tells the most enter
 taining story of the experiences c I sA fI~-
 above Strawberry. one of the popuia
 summer resorts of the Upper Sierra
 "Ail along the way everyone told U
 that we were attempting the fmpos
 sible- When we struck the foot C
 Slippery Ford trail we began to ap
 preclate what the timers mean l From there on until we reached tn
 summit the snow ranged from two | twelve feet deep.
 The cold telling of that doesn't
 any way indicate the size of the prot
 lem that this presented. We wer
 two days in covering the five miis
 between Strawberry and Phillips- [ we had to burrow our va : through tons of snow and build mil' : of .detour where snow blasting on tf : road made it utterly impossible Y some places it was necessary to n up block and tackle to let the e q down dcclivities.

AUTOMOBILE CLUB IS NECESSITY IN
 MANY WAYS TO MOTORISTS OF STATE

fornia, the excellent system of sign posting which marks even every trail, the protection offered the car owner against adverse and pernicious legisla- tion, the powerful influence which stands guard over the proper develop ment of highways-all are directly the work of the great organization of auto mobile owners in our sister state to the west.
 There is very urgent need for such an organization here in Arizona. At the present time, the automobile deal CTS are fighting for the rights of the motorist, and of course, due to lack of numbers are greatly handicapped in their efforts. The same ends for which they are striving could be suc- cessfully gained by great organiza- tion of motor car owners in 0ne-tenth the time now required. This has been shown time and again in the annals of Southern California motordom, and does not bear repudiation.
 Several attempts have been made in the past to form some sort of automo- bile owners club in Arizona, but the proper impetus was not given the movement, however earnest the back CTS were. The time now is ripe for the organization of club of this sort, in the opinion of many motor car own CTS, and according to their beliefs, only awaits the proper broadcasting of the necessity for such club.
 Beside the advantages above -enum- erated, there appears the great oppor- tunity to properly advertise Arizona. An indication of the great work being accomplished along this line by the Auto Club of Southern California is the recent movement started by that club to chart all the main touring high ways of the United States for the bene- fit of the car owner who may wish to tour in an easterly direction. The Club has already sent out crew which is taking the southern route east, mapping the roads of Arizona New Mexico, Texas, Louisiana, Ala bama, Georgia, the Carolinas, Vir ginia, the North Atlantic and New England states, thence across tn, Great Lakes region into Canada, anC from there to the Pacific coast. Thinl what an advertisement this is to tn, progressiveness of Southern Califor mia. While such thing as this woul' be impossible for club, organized il Arizona, for years to come, still, would have been looked upon as an i'm possibility in Southern California fiv years ago.
 The Southern California club ha grown in few years from a smal
 scattered membership to many thou sand, and the club now owns a spler did building with every facility tha
 could be desired. The roads and high

"A splendid example Of the power or organization and results which can be accomplished by unified effort, is that of the three million dollar yearly saw ing effected to Pacific Coast automo- bile dealers by the recent decision of the Interstate Commerce Commission. Dispatched from New York state that the commission upheld the National Automobile Dealers Association in its fight to prevent readjustment of rates which would have meant an addl- tional expenditure of three million dol lars per year by the automobile dealers of the Pacific Coast and Southwest dis trict.
 Perhaps nothing so forcibly illus trates the wisdom and the need of or ganization in other departments of the automobile industry and automobiling iii general as this case. Without the game fight of the counsel for the Ma tional Automobile Dealers Association, as we'll as its efficient traffic depart nnent, the motor car dealers of the Coast would have had little chance to emerge victorious. As the case now stands, thanks to the fact that the dealers of the country were organized to fight each others battles, this great victory saves the public of the Pacific Coast this huge sum yearly.
 There has from time to time arisen the question of an automobile owners club for the motorists of Arizona, to
 fight the battles of the automobile own
 ar, and to accomplish with unified eff
 fort what is now impossible with pres
 ent facilities This matter has come
 before the automobile dealers associa- tion on several occasions and is recog- | nized by the motor car merchants as a l strong possibility for the near future. Il So strongly has the Auto Club of South l ern California become entrenched in 1 the welfare work of Southern Califor- l mia that it is looked upon today as being
 the strongest factor in all questions af-
 fecting the welfare of the motorist and
 the public in general in that district.
 An automobile club of Arizona, pat
 termed after the Southern California
 organization should be launched imme-
 diately. There is no more opportune
 time to begin than right now The "See ]. Arizona First campaign inauguratec by the Phoenix automobile dealers car | very easily be expanded into an organ ized movement to enlist the member ship of every automobile owner in tht state in an organization of motor ca owners.

THE SPIRIT OF CHRISTMAS.

Something like a month ago the people Of Mountain
Home, as represented by the churches, lodges, civic or
CARNATIONS and other bodies that would be interested in
observing Christmas, planned to hold one big Community
tree and to give a treat to every child in the city. Plans
were made, mmittee appointed, and then the First Ma
tional closed its doors and for a minute it looked as
though there would be no Christmas-at least no spirit
left to celebrate it.
But after a few days things began to brighten up,
everybody got busy again and the committees began to
work. They didn't get quite so much money as the orr
ginal plan called for; they didn't find it so easy to awaken
enthusiasm as they had before, but they got enough and
they got donations of candy, peanuts and material from
the stores SO that tonight when the little ones line up be-
fore the big outdoor Christmas tree, the lights will be just
as bright and there will be just as many of them, as they
had ever imagined in their most glorious dreams; the
stockings of gifts won't be quite SO gorgeous as the first
plans called for, but it will really be a stocking of gifts,
and the Christmas glory in the babies hearts will never
discover the difference.
That is community spirit!

IT'S UP TO THE PEOPLE.

It's up to the people Of Mountain Home to get behind the
proposition made by that committee of ten who have been
investigating the condition of the First National Bank,
and put up the deposits to make up the $4,000 that it
will take to make the bank a going concern. Ii you do, the
business interests of the town will function again, the
small d~epositors will get their money and we will all have
heart to 90 again about the business of the day. OF the
$256.OOO that the committee has placed aside as slow or
bad paper, lots of that will be paid in the next few years
to the benefit of the new stockholders. Ii you don't, there
will undoubtedly be a federal receiVership, with all OF its
delay, red tape and expense, and in the end there will be
dividends for the depositors; but mark this, those dlvl-
dends will never be as large as they will be IT our own
money and our own people finance us out OF the wilderness
that the slump in stock values and the e%xpedients into
which the bank has been forced to protect its securities
has plunged us.
This is no time to discuss whose is the blame, whose is
the responsibility; Mountain Home today stands at the
parting of the ways, if we rehabiitate the bank our life
and prosperity goes on, if we do not, Featherville, Glenns
