MCARTHUR BROS.
 NOW DISTRIBUTE L|NE:

Announcing the fact that his con cern has taken on the distribution of Hassler shock absorbers, Charles McArthur. of McArthur Brothers, Dodge Brothers distributors of this territory gave several reasons yes terday why this well-known line was chosen by his concern.
 The new Hassler for Dodge Broth CTS cars is very quickly and easily installed he states. It IS not nee essary 60 remove either wheel or fender. nor is it necessary to cut any springs, drill any holes, or in any way change or mutilate the car.
 "The new Hassler is equipped with the Alemite oiIing system which is used as factory equipment on the Dodge Brothers car. This means that ! the car owner. while owning the car. | will regularly oil the shock abSorber, all of which means greater efficiency | from the absorber.
 The new Hassler comes to the ! dealer assembled in very nearly com pIete form Particular attention is | given to explaining the spacer which ! keeps the spring plate at a proper given distance from the end of the car spring It is emphatically stated that | the springs will not jump out, for the 1 lips of, the plate are extra long, thus keeping the spring in it's place in | spite of rough travelling.
 '-'The Dodge Brothers touring car and sedan take the same model shocb | absorber The coupe, roadster and 1 business car take the same design shock absorber but the shock ab- | sorbers for each of these three models have different weight springs. For l this reason it is essential that pur- i chasers be fully advised as to what models are Interchangeable, and those that are not.

The extent to which Henry Ford has developed his River Rouge prop critics is hardly to be realized. The plant already spreads over 356 acres, and within three years it will prob ably cover 1000 acres with a total cost that will be in the neighborhood of S70,000, ,090." says Ed Rudolph.

 Auto Editor: I would like to know where some of these birds who con slider themselves wonderful drivers, get all this liberty which they take at street intersections. One evening last week I happened to be going west on Monroe street and was already about ten feet past the first crossing on Central avenue when I noticed reckless speed hound tear ing down upon me like a bullet, com ing down Central avenue.
 1 could not have got past him by stepping upon my flivver. so the only | thing I could do was to stop which l did. This in turn. caused a north bound motorist to turn in behind me and almost run into the cigar stand | on the corner.
 The Speedhound when he saw that ''all was we'll" jammed his foot down on the throttle some more, if that ] were possible, and beat it for Adams. street. He had a big car and wou/ have knocked me clear to the top of the Heard building if he had ever
 hit me.
 What I would like to know is what
 the police are doing to curb these
 fools who persist in jeopardizing other peoples lives. Why not make
 reckless driving punishable by fine
 of $50 for the first offense, $100 for the second. and 30 days in jail for
 the third? If something isn't done, I am going to pack gun and make a
 sieve out of the next idiot that tries to run me down.
 PEACEFUL CITIZEN. Dear Sir: I would like to call at : tention to the reprehensible practice f among certain of our worthy citizens , of pasting stickers upon the wind

CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE PLATE
How the Spirit of Giving Was Mani
Tested in the Churches a Hun
dred Years Ago.

Fresh-laid eggs are frequently de-
posted on the contribution plate In
some of the backwoods Episcopal
churches of the South. Which goes
to show that the spirit Of giving hasn't
changed so very much In the hundred
years or so Of the Church Missionary
society. The first report OF the So
ciety dated May 80, 1923, was dug up
the other day, and while 1t shows no
contribution of eggs, a score Of other
articles of merchandise seem to have
found their way to the plate from the
people who gave according 10 their
means" This report, for instance,
shows that back in 1871 David Sneth-
an gave a basket of groceries for the
support Of the missionaries; Stephen
North contributed medicine chest;
William Rawland, a cross-cut saw;
Joe and John Needles two sleeves; s.
Massey, a coffee mill John and 7.
Gully contributed, alas, a slngplarly
empty gift-a safe. John Burson
came along with a tub, whether bath
or wash is not stated G. Buckley is
credited on the books with deduction
on hat" $3.50; John McAllister do
mates a th1 mometer. Among other
miscel' mics are hymn books, states,
spades, shoes, trousers, chairs, soap,
brides and locks. Finally from one
Richard Markall there is a hogshead
of tobacco, which encourages the hope
that some good missionary of the
church In his lonely station afar of
enjoyed comfortable smoke. says the
publicity department of the Protestant
Episcopal church.

Ancient EnaIish Food Laws.

There were pure food laws in Eng

and those who violated them received
punishment to fit the crime

Poultry has been sold since the mid
die of the Fourteenth century at Lead
entail. wheres the city men today buy
a bird to take home In the evening.
But nowadays a goose costs more
than sixpenee. On the other hand, a
poulterer who unluckily sells bad pig
cons has got to stand In the pillory
while the pigeons are burned under
his nose.
This happened In 1881 to "poul-
ter who sold 10 pigeons "in contempt

Bust Shows Two Natures.

The United Service club is one of
London's famous clubs In Pail Mall
for officers of the twin British serv-
ices, the navy and the army. Busts
of naval and military heroes adorn the
hall. The duke of Wellington with
his stately and aristocratic look gazes
down on members as they pass
through the main entrance. Honesty.
pride and dignity are written there.
But head of Lord Nelson at the
side is more interesting. Each side
of the face is modelled differently, so
thar the impression of man of the
world is given as you look at the por-
trait from the left, and of dreamer
as you look at it from the right. In
the one case the modelling is firm, In
the other soft. Even the eyes, for both
are shown. are different. The bust is
q replica by the famous English artist.
