announced at that time that no jurors

and that jurors would be selected from
four counties within the San Antonio

The four counties within the Del

would be selected it was announced at
that time were Uvalde. Val Verde, Kin

Get Notice by Registered Mail.
In order that the notices might be
mailed as early as possible to the com.
bined venire Of 100 at Del RIO and Aus
tin, the office force at the United States
marshal's office will work practically
the entire day, Sunday.
Every notice mailed to a person Sc
Iected to serve as juror is sent by reg
istered mail, United States Marshal ID.
A. Walker said. This method is fol-
lowed in order that no person might
make the excuse for his failure to ap-
pear to the fact that he had received
no notice that he had been ordered to
appear for jury service. This is the

CALL 100 FROM
WHICH To PICK
DEL RIO JURY
Interest in Special Federal
Investigation Is Height
ened.
MAY BE LIQUOR PROBE
Will Convene January 70 in
Extraordinary Ses-
sion.

Interest in the coming session of the
special federal grand jury called to meet
at Del Rio January 20 was heightened
Saturday when it became known that
Judge Duval West had issued sum-
mons for 100 men from which to select
the jury. Judge West. some weeks ago,
had issued the jury call, and at that
time speculation was rife as to the pur.
pose of assembling a special inquisi-
torial body on the border. At that time
there was no intimation that an I'M
usual number would be called, and the
most curious fact was that the court
had exercised the discretion of calling
men from counties outside the Del Rio
division. The fact that developed Sat
urday was more outstanding by reason
that 1t was made known that only SO
had been summoned for grand Jury
service at the federal term at Austin,
beginning January 81.
While no federal official could be ex-
pected to discuss the ccnvening of the
unusual jury at Del Rio, it was rumored
that 100 men were called in order that
1.-THE best and truest might be chosen"
May Be Liquor and Narcotics.
In San Antonio it is generally under
stood that the special jury will be
charged with investigating liquor and
narcotic smuggling and traffic along the
border and in those counties which Sre
called upon to bear the brunt Of the
border disorder.
For the first time during the period
that he has been on the bench. Judge
West exercised his authority to select

SMOKER WILL
BOOST DRIVE
FOR MEMBERS
Members Of Elk's Lodge Will
Be Entertained Monday
Night.
w ANT NEW BUILDING
VIII Start on Annex When
Membership Drive Is
Completed.

Three boxing bouts between we'll
matched local scrappers and variety
of dancing and musical numbers will BE-
the entertainment features at the first
stag smoker given by the Elks' Lodge
in 1928. The show will be staged
Monday night, January s, in the Elks'
building OIL Pecan street.
The smoker is being arranged by the
membership campaign committee to
stimulate greater interest among
Bills" in the membership campaign
now in progress. According TO Jack
Simms, chairman of the committee, the
program will be one of the best ever
given by the lodge, House Manager
Smeltz having been turned loose" TO
put on a real show. Admittance TO the
smoker will be by paid-up membership
card only.
Early last month a stag smoker was
given which was attended by more than
600 members of the order. Indications
are that this record will be broken by
the coming affair, said Mr.. Simms. The
three boxing exhibitions is expected to
be strong drawing card.
Want New Building.
I'VE want every member of the order
to turn out Monday night and enjoy the
big program" said Mr.. Simms. AL
though the evening will be given over
to entertainment, tits our idea that the
gathing will serve TO arouse even high
err enthusiasm among members for the
campaign that is under way to bring
the lodges total membership up 10 a
figure where construction OF the pro-
posed addition to the Elks' Home will
be justified.
at will only be necessary for men,
bers to give a little time to securing
applications for the campaign to end
successfully in the very near future. We
started out to secure a minimum of
400 applications and considerable prog
ress has been made to date. However,
large share of the work has been
done by a comparatively few men.
What we need now is a united effort
in order to reach our goal quickly"
Biggest In South.
With holiday activities over, Mr..
Simms pointed out that the time was
deemed prOpitious for a big meeting
at which steps will be taken 10 end
the campaign in a hurry. 1t is ex-
pected that many additional applica-
tons VIII be underwrltten at Monday s
smoker. At the last smoker a large
number Of members pledged them
selves to bring in at least one applica-
ton, and a good many already have
done so.
Plans are in readiness for the con-
struction Of the new building, once the
membership drive has been completed.
The new structure will be erected ad-
joining the present home and will he
more than third larger. 1t will repre-
sent an Investment of approximately
$3.50. 900. When it has ben finished,
the San Antonio Elks' Lodge will boast
the finest club building in the South.

private schools.
Starts on Birthday.
In addition TO promoting thrift this
motive of the week is TO perpetuate the
memory of Franklin, the first great adj
vocatc of systematic saving in this
country. The celebration this year is
to be the two hundredth anniversary
of 'the departure of Franklin from his
home in Boston and his journey to
Philadelphia. In twenty years after
Franklin's arrival in Philadelphia he
had acquired wealth and fare. The re-
naming forty years of his life were
then devoted to his countrymen. For
this reason. Thrift Week begins on
Franklin's birthday and the principles
laid down by him are followed out.
Want Clubs Formed.
The 1923 detectives of the Thrift
clubs in this country and Canada are
to get 1000 communities in the two
countries to observe Thrift Week to get
100000 in a budget league to pledge
to manage their income in the budget
plan; to observe nationally the birth |
day of Benjamin Franklin and TO or

ali that is lacking now for the launch

Leverage Change.

There is one Improvement in
Dodge Brothers motor cars which
prospects pass over without much
comment when 1t is being explained
to them. but which they all speak
OF with real enthusiasm after they
have driven the car according to
the local Dodge Brothers dealer.
This is the remarkable ease with
which the clutch lever is now con.
trolled. due 10 a change in Leverage
between the foot pedal and clutch
proper.
Not having had to exert them.
selves unduly in manipulating the
clutch pedal on Dodge Brothers cars
of past years, owners and visitors
do not seem greatly excited
Owe this apparently unimportant
change said the dealer. How.
ever, once they get in traffic and
find how easy it is &c let the clutch
in and out, without firing the foe;
in the least, they understand and
appreciate what has been done.
This is particularly true Of ladies,
TO whom a stiff clutch pedal IS a
source of much annoyance. There
arc dozens of similar minor i'm.
provements, in addition to the major
rehnements with which nearly every
one is now familiar"

OF MILES
YEARLY FOR TIRE TESTS

One and one-half times around the
world every "a hours! Tires run
10. 00O. 900 miles a year Just for bet
terment tests. This is the story Of
tire uniformity in one factory. OF
how tires are made TO Withstand
the grind and punishment of the
road.
Tire experimentation and develop
ment is unique. II is practically i'm
possible to depend upon mathe-
NAUTICAL formula to give the enec
OF sven the most minor changes in
construction. So complex is the dis
tribution OF forces operative upon
the tire, that no change may be
made without most exhaustive sprac-
teal tests-road tests that embrace
such severe service that II the tire
Aands up under them. it must of
necessity stand up under normal
usage.
It is no uncommon o~ccurance In
the Miller tire factory to try out a
hundred ideas to prove n prac-
tlcal. often years OF careful study
and testing in all kinds of service
are required to complete an analysis
OF a contemplated change in con
E~truction. One experiment natural
" suggests another. Perfection OF
construction does not come from
n ono good idea but out of the
failure of many.
