ing upon all the newspapers of the
state to Exchange" on the old-tlme
basis. The resolution was unanimous
ly passed and the secretary of the
association has since sent to all news
papers a list of the papers in the
state to be put on the Exchange
list" The result has been a most
pleasing experience, certainly in this
office. Newspapers we have not seen
in years are coming to The Herald,
and no doubt The Herald is going to
newspapers that have not seen it
since the days before the World war,
when the excessive cost of white pa
per caused every newspaper to cut
its exchange list to the very bone
and go on the so-called ''cash basis" !"
That was all good business, per-
haps, but it was bad policy for the
press of tne state. The free exchange
of the newspapers of the state will
contribute no little to the intelligent
development of the state. They can
work more intelhgently for the COM

And then I also have negro sum-

and feel that should give the teach
ers some encouragement there so
that we may prepare them to do the
right sort of work in the country,
and not have to depend altogether
upon teachers who have diplomas
from accredited colleges. The work
in this summer school is being well
done and will be Of great benefit to
the teachers of the county. About
123 have been enrolled and we were
fortunate in getting this summer
school. There are only about ten
others in the state and | noticed

they had only so enrolled, and An

You are correct, Mr.. Hearon. And
we enjoy the sight of the Spartan
burg Herald and the Spartanburg
journal and the Greenville News
very much and we note another thing
that these good Piedmont papers
have grown very much since they
left our exchange desk and all of
them are larger and have many more
features. 1t was Editor Hearon who
introduced the resolution to restore
the old custom of exchanging and it
was unanimously adopted by the as
sociation.
And many of the county papers
are coming back and we are sure it
will all result in god for the state
as we'll as the newspaper makers to
be in this way the better acquainted
with the state. We have not yet re-
ceived the good old News and Cou-
rier nor the Florence Times nor the
Sumter Daily Item and the Green
vile Piedmont and even The State
has not come to our desk except by
subscription and the Greenwood In
dex-Journal has ceased to come since
the meeting of the Press association.
Really we get more than we can read
but we like to look at them and run
over the pages and frequently we
find something that interests US and
the people of this community.

concern and at the same time devote
his attention to other selected ac-
counts.
Mr. Phelps has been entirely iden-
tilted with Dodge Brothers since that
firm began the manufacture of auto
mobiles. Back of that, however"
says Automobile Topics, in speaking
of his new undertaking, ''is a we'll
rounded and highly creditable expert
ence as merchandiser. Prior to
going to Detroit he made himself
known in the east, where he was for
some time in business for himself,
both in Boston and New York. AS
boy just out of college, he went to
work in the first garage in Worces-
ter, Mass. Later he bought the ga
rage and from this time developed
rapidly into larger and more impor-
tant business undertakings.
Phelps is a keen and shrewd psy-
chologtst and practical and sue
cessful writer. He is tremendously
resourceful and this faculty should
stand him in good stead in his
broader activities"
In view of Mr.. Phelps prominence
and reputation for originality, unusu-
al things are naturally expected of his
Arizona republican., 1922-03-12

man only works, yet he was greatly
impressed with the increased activity
in all lines in every city he has Wis
tied. AS evidence that conditions in
the country are nearing normal he
cites the low money rates in New
York financial centers, the release of
funds by the bankers in the Middle
West, the big demand for lumber
in the Northwest, where orders are
piling up faster than timber can be
cut and delivered, and the optimism
prevailing in oregon and Northern
California.
Last year more than 10000 auto
mobiles were out of service, and
stored in garages in Seattle" de-
clared Mr. Move, "but now the ma
jority of them are in active service
and the people of the Northwest are
apparently doing as much business as
ever.
"Both Oregon and Northern Cali
fornia are seemingly prosperous, and
our business over the entire coast is
in better condition than ever be-
fore"
According to Mr.. Move, the Kelly
Springfield company has enjoyed the
greatest business within its history
during the year OF 1921. The large
modern factory at Cumberland, w.
Va. was completed and put into oper-

NO NEED To FEAR
OVERCHARGINC
IN GILL BATTERY

with a Gill battery in their car
motorists need not entertain any fear
of overcharging," says Marshall
Moody OF the Titan Battery company,
local authorized Gill dealer and serv-
ice station. Continuing to charge a
battery after it is up to fun ca
pacity, such as is done when a mo-
torist takes long drive, is generally
injurious to a battery with the sepa-
rator type of construction. and bat
terry men instruct motorists 10 burn
their headlights in the day time on
long trips in order to make the nor
NAL driving charge negligible.
Not so with the Gill battery, In
which the absence of separators re-
duces the heating tendency to the
minimum. Overcharging, as it is
popularity called is nothing more
than overheating, which is very COM
mon in cells with separators Between
the plates. The result is ruined
separators and buckled plates. In
the Gill the cause of plate buckling
is removed yet the narrow thick
plates could not possibly be buckled
either during normal use or by extra
ordinary strain.
THE Gill batteries thrive on hard
work, in fact, they are better when
given regular exercise. and dis
charge on the starter before a long
drive at least once a month will in
crease rather than decrease their ef-
ficiency. Battery engineers agree
that battery should be completely
discharged and charged once every
month TO keep it at its maximum ef-
ficiency."

FRANKLINS GOOD
SNOW FLOWERS

( That F'ranklins are equally good in
snow or desert driving is indicated
| by the following information just re-
ceived by Bob Hunsick, manager of
| the Franklin Motor Car Company in
this city.
The recent storm in California
which tied mountain highway travel
\ in a. knot, demonstrated in a most
| effective manner the many qualities
for which the Franklin has become
I famous.
First off the reel. Mr.. and Mrs.
Lucore, travelling TO Lebec on Sat
urday, January 2S, got caught in
/ the now famous snowstorm. Deter
mined to get out as quickly as pos
| sible, they headed their Franklin
sedan for Bakersfield and, after a
siege of snow bucling. broke through
on Monday afternoon, the first car out
Of Lebec.
Mutual. coming down the inland route
to Los Angeles. found the highway
barred beyond Bakersfield, so, against
all advice, ho started over the Teha-
chepi. 1t was 10 a. M, January so,
when he left the oil drillers' town,
and by Z o'clock that evening he was
home having made the grind in nine
hours and being the first car over the
| Tehachepi after the second storm,
which occurred Sunday night. That
afternoon. Monday, Green passed fully
a. hundred machines stalled in the
snow and was constantly assured he
could not get through.
on Tuesday afternoon the Franklin
Camel was sent out on a. hurry up"
road opening expedition, Bouquet
Canyon being picked. as it is usually
the last road opened after a heavy
snowfall. The special inducements
for opening the Rouquet road were
the known facts that the fall of snow
at Lincoln Crest had been just as
heavy az on either the Ridge or Ca
jon and that, instead of a paved high
way to offer firm foundation. there
were many chuckholes, bitches, etc,
concealed by the deep snow.
So the Franklin Camel. under the
guidance Of r. j.. Larson and Fremont
ReichWein. battered its way to the
crest on Wednesday. February /. Ie-
ing followed to within a half-mile Of
the summit by two motion picture
photographers in a 1916 Fyanklin.
On first thought it may seem
comparatively easy undertaking for
one car to follow the trail broken by
the older model Franklin mare the
greater part OF the tip with a chain
on one wheel only. and that the full
set of tires had seen over 10000 miles
of service, two of them without
tube change, the performance was
unique Neither Franklin was forced
to change tires, and r. G.. Davis and
Il. r. Flldridge. both of Glendale. who
piloted the second car, declare the
Franklin is the only car for rough
work and swear by their 1915 war
horse.
