1t was an impressive and imposing
spectacle. which the unthinking
masses of Greater London enjoyed with
wideeyed, open-mouthed enthusiasm.
But slowly things are beginning to leak
out which were only known to those be-
hind the scenes. Some of these things
are almost comic, some are absolutely
funny to. anybody but a Britisher-and
some are really tragic.
The readers of this page have already
read Of the endless conflicting things
which arose from week to week and day
to day to perplex and strain the resource
fulness of the committee of arrangements
who had so many delicate questions to
solve. Besides the problems of prece-
dence, social prestige, what clothes to be
worn and even the memorable row between
the Duke Of Atholl, the Lord Chamber
lain, and the fat peeresses as to squeezing
them into sixteeninch chairs, there were
several unexpected surprises and compli-
cations which developed only on the day
of the wedding
or course. there has been much whis-
pered comment as to why the Prince of
Wales was not present at his royal sis
ter's marriage Was the Prince purposely
sent away because his popular face and
figure would have utterly eclipsed the
rather plain face and not very distin-
guished figure of sister Mary?
Or did the King and his daughter take
advantage OF the absence Of the Prince
of Wales, who is touring India, to spring
the announcement Of Marys engagement
and pull off the marriage quickly before
the popular young Prince got back to Eng
land to- overshadow the newly married
couple?
But head and shoulders above every
thing else is the shadow cast on the great
event in Westminster Abbey by the alb
sence of Commander the Honorable Alex
under Ramsay, the "commoner" husband
of the very popular Princess Pat" daugh-
ter of the Duke of Connaught and cousin
OF Princess Mary.
The two most popular people in all
Great Britain are the Prince of Wales and
Princess Pat" While the absence of the
Prince of Wales is explained away by his
important tour in India there is no salts
factory explanation of why the Hon. Mr..
Ramsay, husband of Princess Pat" was
not there the last day OF February with
his wife at the great ceremonial m famous
Westminster Abbey.
Nobody dreamed that Princess Pats"
husband would not be there. Not until
the newspapers began to tabulate the
guests did they make the astonishing dis
covery that Commander Ramsay was miss.

amazement and ran around to find out

Suppose Lloyd George, the Pre-

Here is an average case: Starting

turned over. The owner is puzzled.

wire and that, feels of his spark plugs

weaker each time it turns over. At

never were any good at all. Has car
towed in to rvice station. flnds
trouble was a loose connection which
could have been fixed by an expert

has TO be repaired and tt bill can be
charged directly to careiessness.
The answer to the question OF
How Will l Get Best Efficiency

uiarly inspected every two weeks and
the entire electrical systen gone over
every three to six months.
A striking example of this can be
drawn from the dentist. Who pays
the biggest dentist bills? The man
who has his teeth cleaned every
three months and has minor repairs
done at that time. or the man who
lets his teeth go for three years and
then has to have every one in his
head gone over? / will leave the

bOGUE, APPERSON
EXPERT, RETURNS
To OLD HAUNTS

w. A. Bogue. better known as
i"Bogy," old time factory man with
Haynes and Apperson, has returned
to Phoenix after a years sojourn on
the Pacific Coast. Bogue, who is
taking the position of shop superin-
tendent for the Tucker motor service,
was formerly with Ferguson Keeler,
handling Apperson service under C.
Fl. Tucker. When Tucker heard that
Bogue could be persuaded to return
to Phoenix he Immediately burnt up
several thousand yards of perfectly
good Western Union wire in getting

him as far as the depot and onto the
train. Now that he is here, Apper-
son owners all over the valley will be
glad to see him again.
Mr.. Bogue's experience in automo-
bile mechanics dates back 10 years
when Elmer and Edgar Apperson and
Elwood Haynes were struggling
along in Kokomo. Indiana with one
and two-lunger buggies. trying to
evolve a self propelled vehicle. He
has seen every phase of the manu-
facture and development of the auto
mobile, and as service man can
tell pretty nearly what the trouble
with a motor is by shifting at it.
Those who know Bogue.-and there
are a great many IN the valley--will
unite in declaring that he will be
great asset to the present splendid
organization of the Tucker Motor
Service.

Need?
This article is written to impress
on the car owning public of the Salt
River valley the Importance of pre-
venting electrical trouble rather than
remedying it. Owners usually take
their automobiles to a good garage
and have their cars thoroughly over
hauled and tested at regular inter-
walls.
Strange as it may seem, these same
owners very seldom think of going to

trical equipment tested, cleaned, ad-
justed and put in good shape.
Battery Care Not Enough
Care of the electrical system means
great deal more than just care of
the battery. No battery works alone.

electrical part of your car. When it

Where To Look When There Is

There are not a great many things

another is dirt, and the third is wear.
Just where these three things come

The sad part of it is that the exper-

NIBROLTruC PAVING.

Just now there Is going on a spirited paving

and the quality OF paving to he used. In this
controversy tho patented process OF paving
known as "vlbronthlc" appears to be a bone OF
contention.
In the public prints OF that town those op-
posing the patented vlbrolithic, which It seems
la being used there extensively. have presented
a case to the authorities which looks like water
tight. They have presented letters and tele-
grams from various cities whore this type OF
paving has been used ana in every publlshed
instance the mayor or some other prominent
official declares the, paving has been altogether
unsatisfactory. In several instances the authori
ties have banned It after two or three years
use.
