With the approach of spring housekeeping a decision to dispose of some of the un- used furniture in the attic disclosed a grandfather's clock, picturesque in appear ance and of undoubted anti quity. Along with other things t h e grandfather's clock was turned over to J. l.. Gober, auctioneer, for sale, Gober sold it.
 As the clock was being de- livered to its new owner, a cunningly devised drawer in the base slipped out disclos- ing two dust-covered, un- opened, undoubtedly genu- inc quart bottles of a famous liquor once widely advertised under the name of ''Old Taylor.
 The sale of the clock, it is understood, had been duly signed and sealed, and find ings is keepings with the contents of grandfather's clocks.
 Mir. Bennett, it is under stood, says that the clock had never been touched or otherwise disturbed or used since he bought the house containing it. On the other hand it was recalled that Senator Earth, who sold the house to it's present owner, was an ardent prohibition ist."

WITHOUT STREET ADDRESS YOUR MAIL IS DELAYED

 The Dead Letter Office has been in existence ever since Ben Franklin started our postal service. Even then people addressed mail to Mir. Ezekiel Smithers, Atlantic Coast" and ex- pected Ben to know just where Zeke lived.
 Perhaps they had Zeke's address in letters up in the garret, maybe chest full of 'em, but then 1t was easier to let Ben hunt Zeke. Today people are addressing letters to John Smith, New York, N. Y., or Chicago, Tl., thinking Uncle Sam can locate him, which iS just as incomplete as was Zeke's ad dress of yore. The Postoffice Depart ment asks you to put the number and street in the address. 1t helps you.

FORD FREIGHT RATES SLASHED S2O.OO

Here's s20 worth of joy for prospective Ford car and truck purchasers. Accord ing to telegram received by MT. Jennings, local Ford dealer, the freight charge on all models of Ford cars and trucks has been reduced by the aboveamount, effect i've April 18th.
 Mr. Jennings explains that this substantial reduc- tion in Ford freight h a s been made possible solely by the fact that the operat- ions of assembling, upholst. enng and finishing Ford cars have been developed at the Pacific Coast Branch es to the point where the entire local demand can be supplied from these plants. This means that the raw material from which a II Ford cars and trucks for this territory are manufac- tured, is received in com- pact, knocked-down form, taking the lowest freight rate. The Los Angeles Branch, which supplies cars to this district, is now pract- ically a miniature F d Factory.
 "Mr. Ford's policy o f passing on to the customer the benefit of any possible saving is we'll illustrated in this latest decrease" says MT. Jennings. It is .esti- mated that the saving to residents of Southern Cal ifornia and Arizona alone during the balance of the year will amount to more than $4O0, ,000. %.

 Judge Morrison of Phoe- nix was in our city Friday. It was a great pleasure for the editor to meet him. Their last meeting was at a United War Work confer ence in Phoenix, and the Judge remembered a story that we had wanted to get hold of ever since that time. He doesn't need reference books in his practise we are sure when he is possessed with a memory like that.
