A day Or 10 ago We published in
this paper an editorial entitled Home

RIPPLING RHYMES.
By Walt Mason.
TAX MONEY,

I've written miles OF deathless
song, to earn the coin in yon-
der sacks, and / must hand 1t
out ere long to pay my yearly
income tax. / greatly wonder
where they'll go. when Uncle
Sam collects those bucks;
greatly fear that he will throw
my hard earned roubles to the
ducks. If Uncle Sam could only
see the poet in his garnet bare.
composing epics wild and free,
that he may have bill OF fare!
/ buy my harps from Henry
Ford In quantities, to get them
cheap; yet when I've paid for
bed and board, the roll that's
left would make you weep. /
walk the floor by night and
day, to find new rhymes for
rhymeless words; and Uncle
Sam will take my pay, and then
. he'll throw 1t at the birds. He'll
buy himself a sword and gun,
and build himself submarine.

mon to pay John ID. for gaso-
line. He'll hand out money left
and right 10 pay for past and
future wars; j have to pay for
every fight. yet wars a thing
my soul abhors. He'll run his
government in grooves that
makes sane voters stand aghast;
he never alters or improves the
cumbrous methods OF the past.
Nine men will do what one

every step, and high priced
statesmen still will chew their

FORD FREIGHT RATE SLASHEI
$4,000

Here's $40 worth of joy for pres
pective Ford car and truck purchas-
ers. According to telegram receiv-
ed by the Winslow Auto Co., local
Ford dealers, the freight charge on
all models of Ford cars and trucks
has been reduced by the above
amount effective April 18th
Clyde Matthie explains that this
substantial reduction in Ford freight
has been made possible solely by the
fact that the operation of assembl-
ing, upholstering and finishing Ford
cars have been developed at the Pa
cific Coast branches to the point
phere the entire local demand can
be supplied from these plants. This
means that the raw material from
which all Ford cars and trucks for
this territory are manufactured, is
received in compact, knocked-down
form( taking the lowest freight rate.
Heretofore, many of the Ford cars
sold in this vicinity were shipped in
partially assembled from eastern
points, which necessitated a high
freight rate The Los Angeles
branch, which supplies cars to this
district, is now practically a. NINA
ture Ford factory.
'Mr. Ford's policy of passing on
to the customer the benefit of any
possible saving is we'll illustrated in
this latest decrease" say Mr.. Mat
THE. 1t is estimated that the saving

A REAL MASTERPIECE

If there happens to be anyone in
Winslow who still clings to the old
adage, There is nothing new under
the sum-" they had better prepare
themselves for a severe shock when
they see Foolish Wives" at the
Orpheum in Flagstaff Sunday and
Monday April 80 and May /, for
critics say that this Million Dollar
Production is unique departure
from anything ever offered on stage
or screen.
Foolish Wives" tells a dynamic
drama of Monte Carlo and trans
ports the spectator over to that is
land of pleasure, and takes them on
an extended tour through the wick
eldest place in the world, through
the Cafe de Paris, the Hotel de Par
is, down the famous promenade,
where society and the underworld
meet, into the private villas where
wild and wicked parties culminate,
and last but not least, through the
men and women worship at the
shrine of chance.
Counts, snobs, roues, scarlet wo-
men, harlots, social lions appear in
this terrific expose of frivilous fem
ininity and enact what is declared
to be dramatic thunderbolt that will
jar even the most blase theatergoer.
Sets that dazzle, photography that
is a revelation, gowns that are a
treat to the eye. A story beyond
comparison, all enhanced by perfect
acting and fawlessl direction, is the
critical opinion of this twelve real
masterpiece coming to Flagstaff. 1t
played in New York and Los Ang-
eles to capacity at sky-high prices.
Foolish Wives" was written, di-
rected by Won Stroheim, the Vandal
of Williams. 1t is a road show at
traction and will be presented for
your approval on a lavish scale.

CALL OF THE OPEN ROAD

The call of the open road is
sounding
With the approach of the fishing
season and balmy days, the motor
ist is getting that irresistible hank
ering for the mountains, seashore,
lake or stream, and it will not be
long before all the highways will be
crowded with hurrying caravans of
sport lovers, bound for their favor
ite retreats far from the maddening
crowd.
One of the. most convenient feat
ures around an automobile camp in
the wilds, is plenty of light, accord
ing to C. G. Payne of the Old Trails
Garage, local dealer in Gill Storage
batteries.
II know from experience that
there is never enough light available
to supply the auto camp out in the
open, says Mr.. Payne With a Gill
battery it Isl possible to utilize the
energy from the batteries for camp
lighting, and not have TO worry
about running it down SO that it will
need recharge before you finish
your trip. The Juice consumed in
providing camp light from the auto
mobile battery is SO easily replaced
in the Gill because of it's construc-
tion without seperators, that a mo-
torist need never worry about con-
serving his lights while taking a
long camping trip. This is some
thing for the auto owner who is con-
sidering trip in the open, to think
about. In the case of a several
nights stand, if the battery is used
for lighting the camp at night by
hooking up the dash outfit, for in
stance, all that is necessary is to
start up the motor the next day and
run for half hour or So"
And Mr.. Payne declared that Gill
users can absolutely abuse their
batteries and they will perform bet
ter as result.
