DREAMLAND ADVENTURES
The Lost People

squaw., She shook her head over it in
Il puzzled sort of way.
Ugh :" said Red Wing. as he looked
at her. Ugh" He had remembered
something else.
Indians didn't have mills to grind
their corn in the long ago." he said.
1.-THE Indians ground their corn by
pounding it with stones. SO my grand
father once told me. These Lost Pco.
pie ar" Indians Of tne long ago."
Saying this. Red Wing took some of
the dried corn from the dish held ont
by the grandmother squaw, and pre-.
tended 10 pound it with a stone. At
once the grandmother squaw under.
stood.
"Ugh." she said, and led them to
the edge of the woods. There among
the bushes was large stone followed
out on top. Beside this was another
/ stone into which was fitted long
| handle.
| The grandmother squaw poured the
dried corn into the followed. out stone
and began to pound it with the stone
in which the handle was fitted.
Ugh" said Red Wing. "rhat is
how the Indians ground their corn in
the long, long ago.
1t was hard work grinding the corn
this way. The grandmother squaw soon
grew tired. Then she handed the
pounding stone over to Red Wing Uc
pounded stoutly for while, and then
passed it on to Jack. Thump
Thump. Thump. Thump. Jack pound .
ed steadily, at first thinking it fun.
Then he, too, grew tired, and passed
the pounding stone to Janet. Thump
Thump! Thump. Thump. Long before
the corn was all smashed into meal
Janet grew tired she passed the stone
back to Red Wing
AS for grandmother squaw, she gath
cred up beechnuts and acorns, and threw
their meats in with the corn. Jack anC
Janet thought this would make very
queer sort of flour.
And as they pounded, red faces be
gan to appear slyly from behind bushe!
and trees and sharp Indian eyes peekct
curiously at them.
lIIOw Jack and Janet meet the In
dian Lost People will be told in to

CHAPTER III
The Mill i'm the Woods

YTIIE Indian grandma squaw held out

the same tim" she pointed to the pic
ture Of the cornstalk which Janet had
drawn on tn" ground.
Janet nodded her head. Yes. it was
for corn she had asked when she drew
the picture on the ground. But how
could She rcll the grandma squaw she
and Jack and Red Wing wanted the
corn in the form Of corn cakes with
sirup:
Janct knew that corn cakes were
mndn from cornmcal. And cornmoAI

Maybe il she drew picture OF corr,
cnkre the grandmother squaw would
understand.
So Janet tried to draw n picture OF

harder inb than drawing n picture OF

rnuIdn't make the corn cakes look like
corn cakes. They looked just like wha,
they w"rc--littlc squares marked on ir
tho dirt And Janet had II" better
success in trying to draw Il picture OF

j lik" nothing at all.
.Janet'S wits worked hard. II sh'
wanted corn cakes she just had to fine
som" way to tell the grandma squaN
whut She wanted. II she couldn't draw

NEW FUELS ARE
 BEING TESTED
Scientists Working on Many Possible Substitutes For
 Gasoline as Juice

Experts may be right about the waning of the gasoline supply, but that should cause no alarm over any possible motor fuel shortage For sci ence Is developing substances which promise joy-riding for motorists for ages to come.
 In Tact, so many possibilities are undergoing experiment even now that there is no prospect ahead of any shortage at all. And by the time these sources are drained-if ever-it would not be amiss to predict that scientists Will have developed a method of draw lrg motor fuel from air. Which would be final assurance of fuel supply as long as man lives.
 To show how far off is the prob- ability of any sort of fuel shortage. here is list of subjects" with which scientists are experimenting for fu- ture power:
 Alcohol, acetol. shalene of shale oil gas, rice stray gas, ordinary straw gas, tetrolene and naphthalene.
 All this, after the sources for paso- line, benzol and kerosene are ex- bausted,
 The present supply of gasoline is good for another generation, accord ing to a recent geological survey. Benzol will be here as long as coal
Bisbee daily review., 1922-01-29

and wood exist. It is a by-product of ctke. Kerosene, product of coal and petroleum, is being used extensively, with gasoline as a starter
 Of the experimental sources now heing delved into, the shale fields of Colorado and other. western states are most promising. Shalene, derived from the shale rock, is expected to keep engines going for several gen erations, and at cheaper rate than gasoline.
 In England and Australia, expert ments are being conducted with alco- hol as "a motor fuel. An alcoholic compound called "acetol" has actually proven it's worth as powerful motor fuel. But. it's price, at present, is too high for general use
 Besides these, motor spirits" have been taken from sugar cane and mo- lasses. The |. s. Bureau of Mines has succeeded in getting fuel gas from ordinary straw, while Sir Charles Bed ford of England has a scheme for ob- taining alcohol fuel from rice straw bamboo and elephant and savannah grasses.
 The latest step has been taken in Germany, where naphthaline has been developed into new liquid compound called tetraline. Both naphthaline and tetraline are being considered as good future motor fuels.

sided at least enough so that they could see few feet ahead of them.
 At $50 the next morning they start ed again, and at 9:30 that night were in Los Angeles. That sounds like an unetentful trip, but it wasn't. Roads were washed out, but Doc" Bledsoe didn't mind that-the sedan kept go- ing just as we'll through desert sand end muddy fields; bridges were gone, hut the Big Six took to flood waters like a duck; detours were necessary but the car seemed to take to side trips like Governor Campbell. Pontooons Lacking
 The party reached Los Angeles just in time to enjoy the full force of the storm. Every road and bridge to San Diego was swept out by flood waters. The ocean was the only highway that was still being used. So they spent several days in Los Angeles listening to the Californians trying to alibi the weather.
 How did they enjoy the big game at San Diego? They didn't.
 eff I'd only had a set of pontoons 70 put on that sedan we could have taken to the Pacific ocean and made San Diego easy" said Dr. Bledsoe when he returned to Bisbee. "Or if I could have found an airplane propeller we'd have flown down. That football game wasn't any good, anyway"

Popular American Car Stands Test in
 Trip Thru Uruguay

One of the hardest tests which the Studebaker Light Six" was ever put through in South America, was made recently by Carlos Polack, manager of the Automobile Department of the firm of Coates, Bros, our dealers in Uruguay.
 In this test, they travelled through out the Republic of Uruguay, cover and the car proved it's practicability and superiority throughout the most sandy and muddy roads.
 In submitting the car to this test. Messrs. Gates Bros. had the single purpose of knowing the possibilities of this new model in view of the fact that 1t was new type and still un- known in Uruguay. The success of this trip was almost incredible even to the drivers themselves.
 When leaving Montevidio. it began to rain. and continued raining for four days in succession. making a mire out of the roads all over the country
 An exact record Of the gasoline consumed was made during the trip: 1t being proved that the car rendered an average of 135 kilometers per can ot fuel (approximately gallons). This is a satisfactory consumption if the impracticable condition of the roads is taken into consideration. It must be mentioned also, as an inter- esting feature, that it was not neces. sary to make the least adjustment to the motor during the entire trip, which fact was proved by documents submitted by the travellers.
Bisbee daily review., 1922-01-29

and motorists that they could not get by washouts, the party left Los An geles on January and headed for Parker, Arizona, by way of Barstow There were washouts, plenty of them and mud enough every ten feet to Euild a pueblo. But on January T the Big Six rolled into Bisbee again, as fit as a fiddle.
 How did the sedan stand the gaff?'' . Here's how:
 Without single adjustment or re-
 pair,
 Without one blowout or puncturc, Without Overheating once, even
 on long grades or pulls through
 mud,
 Without tiring one of it's passen-
 gers, and
 With an average of better than 15
 miles to the gallon of gasoline,
 in spite of tn fact that the ma
 jority of the roads were almost
 masses of solid mud!
 The trip over and back totaled 1427 miles, not counting a couple of hun- dred miles the sedan rolled off in Los Angeles.
 Will the Big Six sedan stand the gaff?' The Bledsoes, both families, say they know it will. But when they reported how nobly the sedan per formed to J. J. Bowen. of the Bisbee Auto Company, the only comment he had to make was:
 Sure, it's Studebaker, isn't it?"

PROSPECTS ARE
 EXCELLENT FOR BASEBALL HERE
Many Former Members Bis bee Team Ready to. Sign
 Up Again This Year

Never before have the prospects for real ball team been more bright than for the coming season. At pres- ent Bisbee has a good supply of ball players and all of them are local men most of them having made good last summer in semi-pro and professional ball. For backstops Bisbee has two high class performers in Johnnie Sal mon and Ben Bedford. Salmon per formed most of the season here last year While Bedford played with Fl Paso and Big Springs, Texas.
 The twirling staff will be we'll talk en care of by Harry Althaus, Fred Baugh and John Flock. Harry AL thaus twirled excellent ball for Ros- well and Clovis, New Mexico. Fred Baugh. who is a southpaw, was the main twirler for San Angelo. of the West Texas league.
 The initial sack would be we'll talk en care of by Frank Perz who show ed we'll in the games that he played here last season. Eddie Kelly. who played second base in great style last season, will again be seen in mi form in the same position. Frank Champion, a veteran at shortston signifies his intention to play anoth- CT season here. Fred Krigbaum. who belongs to Mineral Wells. of the Tex as-Oklahema league. will work out the early part of the season with Bis bee.
 In the left garden Tommy NIuat will be seen again unless he signs the contract which was offered him by the sherman team of Texas-Okla- homa. Frank Eyman has fully recov- ered rom serious cut on the knee and will be out after the center field position. Roy Boat, who held down tne initial sack for Bisbee last year. VIII play the outfied this season.
 Gene Hicks, who played second base part of last year, will be out af. ter the job this year and Angius. who had good hitting average last wear. VIII give some one a hard run for position in the outfield. John Hobbs who was elected captain of the IT Inf A. football team for next season. has signified his intention to play sum- mer ball with Bisbee. If the ahove payers can be induced to stay here the coming season Bisbee should have championship team.

300 Mile Speedway
 Event Is Plan of
 Frisco Motorists

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. 2S.-Plans are announced here favoring 500 mile automobile race on next Novem Der l. at the greater San Francisco Speedway at San Carlos. A purse of S50,O00 and lap prizes of at least s25,- COG will be offered.
 Local automobile men say the $75,- OOO prize alone will be the largest sum ever offered in an automobile race. The San Francisco speedway. it was said. will be the second in the nation to hold q 50-mile race, the Indianapolis speedway being the only enc on which the long distance events have been held regularly. Most of the races are for 250 miles. Cars smaller than the racing cars now be- ing used will be entered in the armis- tice race, the officials having an rornced that 22-inch motors will be given handicaps which will enable them to compete against the larger Cars.

SEVERE FLOODS FAIL T0 BOTHER BIG STUOEbkkER
Husky Closed Car Proves It Is Capable of Hard Work
 on Trip to California

It's great car, all right, but
 Will it stand up under long trips?
 Will it behave on rough roads?
 Will it turn out a good gasoline
 mileage?
 Will 1t be easy on tires?
 These were some of the remarks that friends of Dr. and Mrs. N. c. Rledsoe made several weeks ago when the Bledsoes purchased Studebaker fsig Six Sedan.
 All admitted that for looks, easy ridding and conveniences the big se- dan was second to no other car ever brought into the district But they wondered if it would stand the gaff' that the average car in Arizona is sub- jCcted to.
 The Bledsoes were confident 1t would. And they were so confident that they determined to try out the big sedan immediately That was in the latter part of December. On the Beth Centre College and the Univer- sity of Arizona football teams clashed at San Diego, California Dr. and Mrs. Bledsoe decided they would like tn see the big game So did Mir. and Mrs. F. c. Bledsoe and their son, Leighton.
 Make Phoenix First Day
 So the two Bledsoe families packed their suit cases and travelling bags, filled the tanks of the Big Six sedan with gas, oil and water and started out on December 90.
 That evening they rolled into Phoe- nix, PAP miles from Bisbee, not a bad days jaunt for new car, especially big, closed car. If any members of sthe party were skeptical when they left Bisbee as to how the sedan would behave, their doubts were fffs-I pelled long before they reached Phoe- nix. I On the second day, December 21, | the party reached Blythe. Approxi- mately SO miles of the road from Phoenix to Blythe, they say, was an almost continuous stretch of ruts and | chuck-holes. Dr. Bledsoe drove all | the way, and the doctor has never been falsely accused of driving so | slow that snails are inspired to race ! him. Nevertheless, although he roll | ed the big sedan over the bumps at a l merry clip, the sturdy springs never i failed him and seemed to smooth out | every bump.
 Rides Like Pullman Tt rode over those chuck-holes like | n puliman," says Leighton Bledsoe | When we passed other cars on that | stretch it seemed like we were on an ocean liner passing up fleet of row. loats that were pitching around on the waves"
 Phoenix to Blythe in one day. An other pretty good shift" for the Rig Six.
 And the next day it rained"
 That was December 22. the day that all California got the soaking of it's life. Unusual weather" the Native Sons called it. Anyway, it rained, end the Bledsoes decided to stay in- side the hotel until the storm sub
