LOW PR|CE CAR
 BEATS TIME OF
 TRAIN IN RAGE
After Running Continuously Over Two Years Chevrolet,
 Sets Up New Mark

From Capetown, South Africa, to Pretoria, is a distance of 1007 miles. Recently a Chevrolet touring car driv- en by three relays of drivers was sent over this route in a successful effort to beat any previous time established for the distance, either by motor car or by train.
 The car used had seen over two years of service and had done more than 10000 miles of running. In addi- tion to the drivers, it carried three passengers during the entire trip.
 Starts From Capetown
 The car left Capetown at 4:00 a. m. one Wednesday. The first driver, Harry Rosenthal, took the car from Capetown to Victoria West; Percy Hunt, the second driver, from Victoria West to Kimberley, and Steve Owen, the third driver, drove the machine from Kimberley to Johannesburg.
 Roadless Desert Crossed
 Over six hundred miles of the trip was made through the Karroo Desert a stretch of veldt where there were absolutely no roads, and where the only guides Go the drivers were occas- ional wheel tracks and even more occasional farm houses that were passed by the speeding machine.
 The conditions under which the

Buick Stands Third
 in Volume of Output
 Ayers Local Dealer

Latest reports from official sources place Buick production on an envia- ble basis, declared George Jackson, manager of the Southern Arizona Au- to Company, local dealers for Buick cars.
 The daily output of Bucks, Jackson went on to say, is only exceeded by two makes of cars-both of them ca ering to the lower price field-as shown by the following production re- port.
 Buick 800; Ford 5000; Chevrolet 1,200; Dodge, 600; Studebaker 450; Hudson and Essex 250; Oldsmobile 100; Oakland 100; Cadillac 100.
 With such production volume, Jack son continued, it is readily apparent why Buick is able to pjut the best of material and workmanship into their product-char;acteristics that have made for Buick an enviable reputation wherever roads and automobiles are known.
Bisbee daily review., 1922-12-15

drivers worked were very severe. In order to maintain the time-schedule laid out in advance, an average of over twenty-five miles per hour had to be maintained at night.
 When it is considered that this speed was made over trackless stretch es of deserted veldt, the performance both of the car itself and it's pilots seems, particularly to the South Af- rican, little short of super-human.
 Lost Trail in Mountains
 At one time a delay of one hour and forty-five minutes occurred ow- ing to the fact that the trail was lost in the Nieuveld Mountains. Despite this fact, the Chevrolet made the to- tai distance of 1907 miles in forty-two hours and thirty-two minutes, beating the Cape mail trains record for the same distance by three hours and fir weight minutes.
 Other Cars Have Failed
 The run had previously been at tempted several times by motor cars, and the victorious Chevrolet beat the best of these previous motor records from Capetown to Pretoria by four teen hours and fifty-two minutes.

Many Accessories
 Prove Worthwhile
 to Careful Owner

Many accessories, although not an essential part of the car ,are a ne- cessity to the careful driver. Al though a spare tire or a tube re. pair outfit may not be included as part fthe kit supplied by car man. ufacturers few but the bost reck- less, the most optimistic or most inexperienced drivers would consider travelling very far without either of these necessities says George Jack son of the Southern Arizona Auto Company
 And accessories aren't always an expense or an affected gimback sole ly of use to doll up a car with. Many driver on a rainy night, with the glare of another cars headlights approaching has solemnly vowed to spend dollar or two on a wind shield cleaner and-forgotten. Num- Der of owners have had the fact forced on them that $15 bumber would not cost anywhere near as much as a new radiator-not to men, tion the damage to the other fel- lows machine. A man who has once used rear view mirror wiuld feel at a loss without that safety device; and motormeter has been found to be an insurance in many instances against a garage bill of knockout proportions.
 Few of the popular priced cars come equipped with such accessor- ies, Jackson continued, yet all of

MEETING TO CONSIDER STARTING
NEW CLUB IN PLAIN
FIELD MARCH 9.

Dear Social Corner: This has sure
been some busy week for staid mid
dle-aged woman like me. I broke the
record Saturday night when 1 left
home at p. m. for Providence took
supper with my step-son and his family
and returned home before dur usual
bedtime. Sunday attended three
church services. made a call and had
callers from out of town Tuesday
went to evening service at the church
Wednesday I took in the anniversary
meeting at the Buckingham Memorial
and Sunday school social in the even

At the Buckin CHAM it was fine as
usual. So many old friends to greet
and new faces to meet and the best Of
all is that no one asks If you are rich
or Door, high or low, and the mem
bership is not limited.
In country village, or even large
town. often the men have a. club. or II
not they have outside interests; the
bows have Scouts; the. girls have vari-

LOVE AND LOYALTY.

Dear Social Corner Pals: Are there
two words in any language which have
greater brea eth or scope Of meaning than
love and loyalty?
From the first touch Of the tiny,
warm hand Of the infant babe so power
full to be, yet SO helpless, on through the
years of youth then manhood and wo-
manhood there is the bond o. love, as
yet unmea assured, which holds ever trust
Ing through sunshine anT r3.7, through
health and stiffness binding US as with
strong invisible CORDS Of hope and faith
for all that is uplifting and best.
Could we but turn back for "a time,
I'm sure it would be to the happy hours
when the precious little heads were pill
| lowed upon our breasts with the tiny
| feet fondly clasped in one hand while
i the other embraced the little form.
The law of life is change so our love
must follow the paths of life, and II we
have builded firm foundation our love
will be lasting and everlasting. Let US
| seek to be leaders rather than driv-
ers of the dear ones entrusted to our
| care. ..
without love we cannot have loyalty
for to love and be, loved means loyalty
Of highest type. The test of loyalty is :
strict performance Of duties involved
| with every TASK ID SIGHT, ana OUT o.
sight. L Is the power to. deny tenlpta,
tions and evil impulses which may b
lurking near. Fs sss
With the heart full Of love and loyalty
one cannot fail IN life's purposes. TIT
goal OF high ideals means ever upward
and ahead.
II has been suggested in some Of tn,
magazines that people in these bus,
times turn back and devote at least on
hour day to play with our children
I would suggest that unless we a!read,
do so, let us devote every hour ever
day, to play and work with them as loni
as It is possible. ~
It Is time richly spent.
Many thanks editor for the yellow sii
which was received Feb. %. Good luc

OUR TWELFTH ANN1vEEsAK1.

Once again we reach the anniversary
season. It was twelve years ago on the
ninth Of tbs month that the SOCIAL Ger
ner was launched in the belief that it
would serve as the clearing house for the
exchange Of ideas that would be Of profit
to all members and readers alike It has
succeeded beyond expectations with the
addition Of many delightful social fea-
lures Its growth has been persistent
and far-reaching and its ever-increasing
membership an Indication Of It's reoog-
nized worth.
There may be some fortunate enough
to be able to compare The Corner page
on this anniversary day with that OF
eleven years ago for the purpose Of not
ing the change in the pennames Those
who have saved a copy Of a year age
will be able to find many-too many, in
fact-names which are now seldom seer
attached to Corner letters. During the
past year there have. been 145 new
members admitted to The Corner. Such
has not been reason for crowding out
any Of the old ones, for unfortunately
many have failed to contribute to Thu
Corner more than their application fol
membership, thus becoming. as one Of thu
sisters has declared, banquet hall mem
bers. instead OF Corner supporters.
In the past twelve years as well as il
the past twelve months The Corner ha!
lost through death some of its workers
helpful and faithful members-whose IN
duence and devotion were always timei.
and unstinted. It IS to such that Tn
Corner owes much Of its success and t
such that it continues to look for tn
still greater assistance it is hoped /
viii be in the years to come.
