CADILLAC OWNER
DIDN'T KNOW HIS
ENGINE WAS RUNNING

An enterprising weekly neWspa-
per in Manchester, Iowa, carried an
automobile column whose con
ductor" has created a theoretical,
imaginary and altogether epher-
neral Auto Institute" to which
he arbitrarily elects prominent cit
bitrarily dismisses them for infrac-
.tions of the rules. Here is report
of recent happenings:
"The spring term of the Auto
Institute, which opened on Feb
ruary l.. started off in very au-
spicious manner. Several new pu-
pills were enrolled and came
through with the required bonus
in dry money There was much
opposition on the board of direc-
tors to reinstating certain man
on account of a recent offense,
which consisted in trying to start
the engine of his new Cadillac car
when it was already running. This
occurred on the street in front Of.
his store and in the presence of
several witnesses. After he had
stepped on the starter three times
he gave it up and made Fred Haug
come over with a squirt gun full
of high-test gasoline, In order to
prime the engine. When Mr.. Haug
lifted the hood and told Mr.. Owner
that the motor was already run
ming and that he should take
Swedish massage for his hearing,
the latter collapsed under the
steering wheel and had to be pried
out with the M. & O. derrick.
While this is a tribute to the quiet
running Cadillac, yet the incident
is severe violation Of the regula-
lions of'the institute and the board
of directors hesitated a long time
before allowing the erstwhile mem
Der to mingle with the high order
of brafns present in our class
room"

NEW COLE MODEL
SHOWS TOUCH Of
TOMORROW NOW
Did You See Fleet of the Big
Fights UnIoaded Here Re-
Gently; If Not See Them
at Auto Show.

There's a Touch of Tomorrow
IN All that Cole Does Today
sang some slogan writer for the
Cole Motor company in search of
a catchy motto for the new cole
Aero Eight, the truth of which is
daily being proved to a greater
extent.
To the fortunate few who were
privileged to witness the unload
ing of several car loads of brand
new exhibition models of the Cole
the other evening in the Santa Fe
yards, the argument is closed
there is a touch OF tomorrow in
these new Cole models. Those who
have not yet seen and been con-
WINGED need only wait until Thurs
day, Friday and Saturday when the
exquisite motors will be on exhibit
ton in the Armory at the Fourth
Annual Auto show. They are be-
ing exhibited by the local agency,
the Kistler Overland company, 21I
North Fourth street.
One of the Coles to be shown at
the Armory is the Sportster model
of which this interesting bit of
gossip has been circulated:
The snappy looking Cole Sport
ster carrying the emblem of the
Automobile Club of Denver, which
showed its fleetness to countless
autoists in Colorado, Utah, Mon
tana, Idaho, Wyoming, Washing
ton, Oregon and California this
summer, carried no youthful
knight of the road, whose age
might suggest the drivers taste
in models. Rather, at the wheel
sat veteran motorist-G. w. Mid
dleton, who can look back over an
eyentful life of 81 years.
With Mrs. Middleton and COM
plete camping outfit, he left his
home in Denver early in July for
his annual vacation tour. He ar
rived in San Francisco sesaral
weeks later with $500 miles reg
istered and with the enthusiasm
of a youngster on his first cross
country trip.
Met Some Rough Going.
Anyone familiar with western
touring will know that the Middle
tons had no boulevard journey in
going from Denver to Yellowstone
National park, then visiting Gla-
cier National park, thence over to
Rainier NATIONAL park in Washing
ton, Crater Lake in Oregon, and on
to Frisco.
1t was, therefore, with no little
pleasure that Mr.. Middleton an
nounced, while paying a bill of
$2.25 at the Allan Cole service sta
ton in San Francisco, that this was
the first money he had paid out for
repairs since he left home. 1t was
a record any motorist might be
proud of, but it does not tell the
whole story.
Unusual Economy Record.
In spite of the fact that he had
to resort to kerosene several times
he made a grand average of Is
miles to the gallon of fuel and
used but one gallon of oil for the
$500 miles. Though his journey
led him. over countless miles of
roads that, as he put it, wese Gust
one rut, bump and detour after an
other" he never changed tire,
nor did he ever stop for wayside
repairs or adjustments.
Mr.. and Mrs. Middleton left San
Francisco headed for Yosemite
and contemplating tour of South
ern California before starting back
for Denver and home.

CHANGES OF TEMPERATURES
CURI. CONCRETE ROADS

That the edges of concrete roads
curl up and down in response to
changes in temperature is the dis
covery recently made by the Bureau
of Public Roads of the United States
Department of Agriculture. in the
course of experiments at the depart
ment's experiment farm at Arlington.
Va. -.
Curling is caused by the unequal ex-
pansion and contraction of the upper
and lower sides of the concrete slab
. under the influence of heat. It has
been observed during the middle Of
the day when the surface of the road
becomes hot it expands more than the
cooler underside and causes the sides
to move downward. At night, when the
surface is cool, the contraction causes
the edges to rise slightly. The ex-
treme movement may 10, as much as
cne-tenth of an ivch.
While the warning Of the concrete
is not in itself detrimental to the
road, it may lead to failure Of the sur

PICKS UNKNOWN YANK
Marine Chapel Yields Body Of
u. S. Hero.
Simple Ceremony Marks Selection of
Body Which Is to Be Buried
at Arlington. %.

Chalons, Sur Marne-America's "un-
known soldier" who will find an hon
ored resting place in the Arlington
National cemetery, was chosen here.
The ceremony of selecting the casket
to be taken to America took place in a
little improvised chapel in the city
hall, and in keeping with a request
from the United States government,
was simple and brief.
Sergeant Edward F. Younger, Chi
cago, was handed a small bouquet of
white and pink roses, and advanced
to the chapel, passing through line
of French troops. Four caskets had
been placed in the chapel. Every per-
son was asked to leave the chapel be-
fore Sergeant Younger entered. He
walked slowly around the caskets
three times, then stopped and placed
the roses on one. He then turned,
facing the entrance, saluted and re-
ported to the American officers that
he had made his selection. During the
ceremony, French military band
played "The Dead March" from "Saul."
General Dubois, commanding the
French Sixth Army corps; Major Cen
eral Harry L. Rogers, quartermaster
of the American army on the Rhine,
and other American officers were
present. There also were number of
American officers from Coblenz. at the
city hall. Several companies of French
infantry rendered military honors.
The only words spoken at the cere-
mony were by General Dubois, who
said: "The French army feels deeply
honored to pay simple and loving
tribute to the American unknown SOL
der"
Later the, casket was placed in the
rotunda of the city hall draped in an
American flag, the only flowers on it
being the little bouquet.

100000 VISIT MINNESOTA LAKES
THIS YEAR

, Minnesota has taken definite place
among the playground" states OF the
country. With the tourist season prac-
tically over, it is estimated that nearly
100000 tourists visited the state dur
ing the 1921 season.
A QUESTIONABLE sent out to MINNIE
sofa summer resorts by the Ten Thou
sand Lakes Of Minnesota Association
indicates that fully that many visitors
were here during the summer. Fifty.
seven returns from a total number Of
$50 summer resorts, report 93,ooo tour
lists, Of, which number .42,426 came
from out Of state. The grand total Will
run as high as 100000 according -, to
statements made by officials OF the len
Thousand Lakes of Minnesota Asso-
citation, for many Of the largest re-
sorts have not yet reported.
Carlos Avery, state game and hsh
commissioner estimates that 24,OOO
non resident fishing licenses were sold
ND to September 81. One Of the large
steamship companies operating be-
tween Chicago and Duluth reports that
it LANDED an average Of 400 persons a
week in Duluth during the months OF
Julyt and August.
More than 5000 out-of-state tourists
registered at the offices Of the Ten
Thousand Lakes of Minnesota Assocla-
ton in the twin cities, representing
every state in the union and few for
eign countries.
According to Ivan A. Cope, Execu-
tive Secretary Of the Association, the
increase in the number Of visitors this
year, despite the general business de-
preston is due to Minnesota s geo.
graphical location, which makes it cas-
ily reached from that part OF the
country which has always contributed
the largest share Of summer vacation
lists, namely Illinois, Missouri, Iowa,
Nebraska and Oklahoma.
Sixty per cent Of the summer re-
sorts throughout the state report that
they had to turn away great many
visitors on account of lack Of accom-
modations and a great many OF. them
contemplate new building for next sea-
son.

MAY PRESCRIBE BEER
U. S. Permits Its Manufacture
for Medicinal Purposes.
No Limit Set on Number Of Brew or
Wine Prescriptions Doctors
May Write.

Westinghouse unexpected as a
rainstorm in desert, regulations per-
hitting the manufacture and use Of
beer for medicinal purposes we're is
sued by the Treasury department.
Withheld since March 3, last, when
former Attorney General Palmer held
the use of beer as medicine to be
legal under the Prohibition laws, the
issuance Of the beer regulations came
as a complete surprise to leaders Of
the dry forces who declared there had
been an understanding with the Treas.
ury that the new rules should not be
promulgated until the Senate had act
ed on the pending anti-beer bill.
II Secretary Mellon, in announcing the
issuance of the beer rules, declared
that "the legal rights Of the parties
concerned being plain, the department
is unable longer to delay the issuance
of these regulations"
The new rules cover comprehen-
sively the use of beer, wines and spir-
ituous liquors as medicines. The
amount of beer. a physician may pre-
scribe. at one time for the use of the
same person is~slimited to two. and
one-half gallons, the equivalent of a
case. but no arbitrary limit is placed
on the number 1t such prescriptions
q physicians may write or the same
person may obtain within a given
period. a. =, .,.- 49,.
Two quarts Divine is the limit put
on a single prescription for that bev-
erage, but otherwise the regulations
are the same as for beer.
Spirituous liquors are limited to one
pint within any ten.day period, and
alcohol for external use is limited to
q pint to the same person at one time.

STILL, "Fo0L1NG THE FARMERS

On Tuesday, October IS, the House
extended the Emergency Tariff bill,
approved May ~, 1921, until February
!, 1922. -
This is the bill which was to bring
prosperity to the farmer by protecting
him against the pauper raised crops OF
Europe, which do not exist, but which
destroys the market for his surplus
crop, which he must sell abroad to be
prosperous.
4 On the day before the House exs
tended the Emergency Tariff Act, Sen
ator Mckinley (Rep. Ill., said on the
floor of the Senate:
1T was in Illinois ten days ago and
found that the price Of new corn to
the farmers was % cents, and might
90 to 25 cents, although the corn cost
him IS cents to raise. I myself think
that cents or 3 cents or 5 cents OF
the price reduction has resulted from
the so-called farmer legislation
Emergency Tariff Act) we passed last
summer, but the price Of the crop IS
fixed by the surplus we have to sell.
In normal times Europe bought our sur.
plus. Today Europe is underfsd and
needs our grain, but Europe has neither
credit nor money, 50 they starve white
we burn our corn for fuel. -.
I LAS to the price in Iowa l have a
report from man in the town where
I live who owns 600 acres Of land in
Iowa, who stated that it would not
pay him to husk and ship his corn.'
Senator Kenyon Rep, Ia.), said:
II have letter here from a farmer in
my state in which he says: "Bids for
the 1921 crop of corn have just been
made public: It is Is cents bushel
at the local elevator. The above has
cast additional gloom all over the mid
die west.''
"Out Of that 10 cents a bushel,
husking cost 4 cents a bushel, shell'ng
8 cents, delivery cents, leaving about
5 cents bushel fer producing bushel
of corn. It costs the farmers in the
Middle West from so to 60 cents
bushel to produce it,
The complete answer to the Elmer
gency Tariff Act is to be found in the
daily quotations of the price of farm

tations. but it would seem Republican
