DR.. Quigley, President Of the West

teresting talk Of the money expended
on the school for Dormitory and other
things.
It was a straight from the shoulder
talk and gave in detail the expendi-
lures over which certain state Of
hcials have been attempting to con-
fuse the minds Of the Colorado public,
and will be placed in available form
for the people in n few days. DR.,

Fire Destroys A. G.
Daniels0n Residence

The pretty little bungalow belong
ing 70 Cap Danielson which was 10
Gated about n mile west Of Gunnison
was totally destroyed by fire Monday
morning. Mr.. Danielson and wife
were in town doing some Christmas
shopping when the news came to them.
J. J. Gregg. Of the adjoininx ranch
was the first TO discover the Esmes.
He told Frank Knowles who ran over
TO the car shops and got . couple Of
men to help him, but they were only
able to get out the dining table and q
few chairs, also some carpets. The
nanielson home consisted of abou,
seven rooms, all of which were prettily
furnished with practically new furni-
ture, and only last week the house re-
ceived new coat Of paint. 1t was
built only two years ago. No definite
conclusion can be drawn as to what
caused the FIRE. The house was in
sured' for s250O and the furniture for
$1,000, but the loss is considerably
more than that and friends extend
sincere sympathy to Mr.. Danielson
and his family.

AD1lY RE-
SENT UNJUST ATTACKS

Strong resolutions commencing our
Western State College, deploring and
resenting the pubic attacks mnde mp
on it by Sweets Budget Commits
sioner and Auditor Stong, and calling
upon the State Board Of Normal
Trustees to take immediate action
were passed at the Rotary Club meet
ing and ordered sent not only to the
members Of the board but to all Ro-
tary clubs and similar organizations
in the state. s.4
No stone is going to be left unturn-
ed to sift this matter to the bottom
and find out who is behind the unjust
attacks and gratuitous insults be-
ing broadcasted by these state Of
ficials. Not only is Gunnison aroused,
but friends Of our city and the school
and of President Quigley and the
faculty are getting busy elsewhere and
before the men responsible are thru
with it they will realize that the peo-
pie mean business and intend to hunt
this thing to its hole.
In this issue the resolutions of the
Rotary Club, the resolutions of the
editorial from the Delta Independent

At the luncheon, a very fine address
on the relation Of Biology to Rotary
and to modern Industrial conditions
was given by Dean John c. johnson Of
the college. Starting with the de-
scription of competition and coopera-
ton as the balancing forces Of indus
trial life and likening them to the
centripetal and centrifugal forces of
nature, DR.. johnson illustrated by ami
mails and plants the eternal balance of
these tendencies of life. The address
was a very thotful contribution to the
literature of modern science and News
Champion hopes at later date to
secure It complete for publication.
Henry Crooks was q guest at. the
meeting. A resolution was adopted
commencing the four years Of service
Of Postmaster Boyles as a business ad-
ministration, but making no recon-
mendation as to the position about I'd
be filled by presidential appointment.

The skating rink is looked forward
to hopefully by the younger genera

on the 18th of December there has not
been enough cold weather in Gunni-

WALTER lDOP[ TURNS
UP on MICHIGAN FARM

Walter X. Loupe, well known in
surance mxn Of the junction, was found
in Detroit on December z and arrested.
He was working Of q farm near
Ypsilanti under the name of Roy
Singer at the time Of his arrest.
Loupe disappeared October rs. His
car was found turned over in the river
east Of Gienwood Springs. 1t was
thot at first that he had been drowned
and . party of searchers dragged the
river for his body and dynamited the
holes in hope Of finding his body, but
were unable to uncover any clue Of
him. His wife was still under the
impression that he was dead and had
offered Q reward for the recovery OF
his body.
Authorities did not believe that he
was dead for several reasons and dec
tives were hired to trace him. 1t was
through a letter mailed by a certain
woman that the final clue was dis
covered. It seems that Detectives were.
shadowing this certain lady ever since
the disappearance Of Loupe owing to
the fact that they had been seen in
each others company in several diff
ferent towns. A special detective made
the acquaintance Of this lady on the
train between Salida and Montrose.
In his conversation, he quietly led her
to talk Of the disappearance Of Loupe.
and thru the convefsatioa was sure
that she was the woman in the case
and knew the whereabouts Of the mis-
sing man. At Cimarron she got of
the train to mail q letter, the dective
rot possession Of the letter and got the
desirod infermation-the address and
naue under which Loupe was living.
The authorities wired Ypsilanti and
ideati6cAt5On was made.
The only reason thAt could be pIaus-
ibls for tn 6sappaaranee OF Loupe is
that he wAs behfnd on his accounts
with tie inSuraneo company, altho ne
puts up stories about loss Of memory
etc.
When Loupe was hrst arrested, he
denied bafng Walter Loupe but when
asked about <Ihe initials on his watch,
"W. L.n admitted that he was Loupe.
He said that after the accident he
suffered q lapse Of memory and the
first he realized was that he was in a
large city.
Detective Fuller and Bert Watson.
chief of police of Grand Junction left
Friday for Detroit to get Loupe.
His sensational disappearance was
heralded far and wide, because Of the
striking facts, that he was a very
popular man in Western Colorado.
and hid q fine wife and six children.
His wife believed thoroly In him, and
spent NO effort or expense in searching
for tie BODY, even having the Colo
rado river dragged for days. Loupel
had about - go life insurance. which
looked curious and it was discovered
that on tie day Of his dissppearance,

DODGE BROTHERS PLAN
 LARGER PRODUCTION
Expansion Program Will Cost $5,- 000,000 New Closed Car Build
 ing Erected In Record Time

An Immense new assembly build ing, duplicating the present struc- ture in size, is announced by Dodge Brothers as the principal unit of the 1925 expansion program.
 The building is six stories high, 1000 feet long and 75 feet wide, with more than 500 900 square feet of floor space. Construction work which started some months ago is now nearly completed. The new assembly building. paralleling the old struc- ture, is just across the street which formerly marked the boundary line of the great Dodge Brothers fac tories.
 Factory executives would not com ment on the number of additional cars contemplated in this extensive addition. but it is believed, that the immediate aim is a capacity Of 1000 cars a day. Tn the face of the greatly oversold condition which prevailed throughout the entire year just past, it is not unreasonable to assume that this numbtr mentioned could be ab sorbed easily by Dodge Brothers dealers
 Osher units of the expansion pro- gram are the new cyanide building, Sl,000, coo addition to the power body building. The latter is com jleted. several floors having been oc- cupie6 for some time. It is estimated that the total investment represented in these additions. in buildings alone will reach $5,000,000
 The erection of the body building in the short space of four months es- tablished 8 record. Considering the fact that it is an eight-story build ing 900X200 feet in dimension, with a total fioor space of 500.000 square feet, the time Is exceptionally short IL IS striking tribute to the eff ciency and financial independence of Dodge FTothers, as all the work was done unGer the supervision of the factory's own construction depart ment.
 Scme rdca of the magnitude of the undertaking may be gleaned from the fact that 30,o00 barrels of ce- ment and 10000 cubic yards of con crete were used in the building, as well as 1000 tons of construction steel, 1 AGA tons of reinforcing steel; S2 GOO window lights; 500.e00 feet Of maple flooring, and 600.000 bricks There are seven travelling cranes ranging from five tons to twenty tons in capacity, and four lotion high speed elevators, capable of trav- cling 400 feet minute loaded The building is heated by the indirect system, fans forcing the washed air down various ducts after it is heated by steam pipes On the roof Fire protection is insured by 10000 sprin- kler heads. All stairways are safety treaded.
 While this unit Is an enormous building in itself, it is in reality only hal: building. The other half was completed two years ago. Taken as a whole the building is one of the

WOC0 CHATTERLES OIL |S GUARANT TED
Wofford Company Has Money Back Guarantee On
 Special Ford Oil

Backed by the Wofford Oil com panys regular "rioney-back" guar antce. each week more Ford owners of the Birmingham district are using Noco Chatterlesa Ford oil, accord ing to C. II. Armstrong, manager of the motor oils division of the Wof ford company. S.ncc its formal in troduction here with a dollar dem onstration, Woco Chatterless Ford oil has found unusual favor with Ford oWncrs, and 1t is claimed for it that it Eoss into mora Fords :n Bir irldthsnanl each week than any other single !noiuT oil.
 Woco Chattcrlsss Ford oil was de- Veloped by the Wofford company to eliminate the so-called chatter" or "shimmy" that often shakes a Ford car on starting CT stopping. This "chattering' is caused by grabbing brake bands, and tae special Woco oil softens these bands and keeps them pliable. in addition to eff ciently lubricating the motor.
 According to Mir. Armstrong, any Ford owner who has his crank case drained, washed out with Wooo Three C. Crank Case Cleanser and 1efiled with Woco chrtterless Ford oil can have his money back if the special oil does not eliminate the "shimmY."

THE SAFE DRIVER Prepared Ny the National Safety

1. A man may have a mechanical ly perfect car, but because of care less driving he may cause an acci- dent that results In serious Injury or death to himself or others.
 ?. Reckless driving is not demon stration of skill.
 B. A moment or two saved today by reckless speeding is not effici- ency, for speeding tomorrow may result in a smash that will lay up the car for several days and you for several months. Hurrying to get ahead of a train, street car, or another vehicle saves only moment or two at the ultimate destination and the gain is not worth the price; there is too much danger of acci- dent.
 1. The best drivers are especially careful at dusk or twilight. There is then neither enough daylight nor sufficient artificial light to make oh- largest single factory units in the world, with flat area of 100000 square feet. It will be devoted en- tirely t. the production of all steel bodies--a type of construction orig mated by and for Dodge Brothers.
