BUICK CAR DOES A
TORTION DRIVE STUNT

Ed Babbitt, manager of the Babbitt
garage, Flagstaff, says that the most
novel demonstration of the efficiency
and safety of torque tube construc-
tion in an automobile was given dur
ing auto show week in San Francisco,
when a car with the rear springs de-
tached from the axle, towed an i'm
mense steam roller weighing Ii, ex-
cess of two and one-half tons.
1t was a Buick automobile and the
stunt was performed to illustrate the
reliability of the tortion drive, re-
gardless of what happened to the rear
springs.
Over the steep hills of San Fran
cisco this steam roller was towed by
the Buick, with the two rear springs
painted white so that they could be
plainly seen as they hung suspended
in the air several feet above the rear
axle.
1t was remarkable demonstration
of the power of Buick and the de-
pendability of the tortion drive, which
means that the rear axle is not held in
alignment with the rear springs, the
power being transmitted direct to the
rear wheels and not through the
springs.

showing real growth.
Of the recent appropriation by the
state legislature for the Normal's
next two years. So that, with careful
more than would be believed from the
newspaper reports. The appropriation
calls for each year of the next two:
$4,000 for salary and wages, $27 900
operating expense, $1,000 travelling
expense, $500 capital investment,
$4,000 repairs and requirements, ST.
600 contingencies total of S12S, 900

uncovered $4,000 fund from state
lands that the Normal gets in the
nexttwo years. SO that, with careful
economy, the school will not be fl
nancially hampered.
The speaker said he had hoped to

NATIONAL TRAINING
MEN WANT TO COME
BACK NEXT SUMMER

Carl C. Mayhem recently got let
ter from Clarence A. Lamb, one of
the vocational training former service
men who spent last summer in Flag
staff, who says:
"The. federal board boys voted to
have a ten-weeks session in Flagstaff,
instead of six as was proposed, and
it is up to President Marvin of the
university now.
Il believe that Flagstaff will get
the double session, instead of Bisbee,
as the fellows were strongly in favor
of returning there, SO you may see
US all back again in June"
Flagstaff people will be glad to
welcome back for this summer the
boys who spent last summer here and
as many more as can come, and hope
they will stay the full ten weeks.

LIBRARY NOTES
+++*++*%++*@4+*+.

"Old Crow a new book at the IL
brary. AS a study of New England
traits this story pefetrates the very
fibre of character. It is intense in its
presentment of the clash between the
spiritual and the base. John Rowen,
at odds with the universe, after his
return from Red Cross work in
France, is confronted by another and
different phase of life, again stands
up to his job, and finds the unexpect-
ed at his door.
Violence and remorse carry the act
ion deep into sorely-tried human ma
ture, but the tragedy and its almost
overwhelmingly poignant climax are
relieved by strain of sympathy and
devotion that runs throughout the
book.
1t is easy to say that Miss Alice
Brown has here eclipsed all her prev
ious work.

APPOINTMENTS
 STIR NEGROES

WASHINGTON, Aug. 2S-Presi- dent Coolidge seems to have aroused a storm of protest in negro circles by his first two official appointments.
 The two officials involved are Col. Clarence O. Sherrill. reappointed as the Presidents military aide and superintendent of buildings and grounds of the District of Columbia, and c. Bascom Slemp, former Virginia congressman, named as the Presi- dents secretary.
 Both officials have been attacked by negro organizations and the ne gro press.
 A formal protest to the President against the Slemp appointment is being prepared by the National As sociation for the Advancement. of the Colored People, according to the executive secretary of it's District of Columbia branch, Shelby J. Da. vidson. This organization is strong in New England and other parts of the North and East as well as in the South.

 annual meeting here today. Tho message was presented through l.. D Henderson, Commissioner of Educa- ton. owing to the Governors un- avoidable absence on an official trip to other parts of the Territory.
 The message said:
 "It has been my hope to be present during your session of 1923 and ex- tend official and personal greetings, but a trip to the westward denies me this privilege I am. therefore, asking Commissioner of Education, Tender son, to bespeak my regrets and my keen interest in your work. The Ter ritory has every reason to be proud of its school system. It's steady de- velopment is due to the efficiency and ambition of capable corps of teach CTS. The best promise of Alaska to- day is found in it's growing genera ton and it is most reassuring to find that their educational needs are so well provided for
 The Institute will conclude it's ses- sions this week. Teachers from every part of the Territory. except Seward Peninsula, are in attendance.

CHICAGO, Aug. 2S-The bank rob Der of today is a post graduate of the university of crookdom and his methods of cracking safes are improv ing just as other inventions or theo ries are being improved upon in the evolution of things.
 This fact, according to the Illinois Bankers Association, has led to pro tective measures by banks that are based on the very latest and most scientific lines. The bankers. accord ing to the Association, have long since ceased to believe that any safe is impregnable to the fingers, acety- lene torches or "soup" of the modern bank robber.
 Accordingly the bankers now are concerned with building safes that will give the robber the most trou.

 What the bankers call "tin door safes" are safes with doors of one half-inch steel Statistics show that these can be opened with an acety- lene torch in 30 minutes. Therefore the Association wants round or screw doors 3h inches in thickness.
 In addition to keeping in touch with the construction of safes, the Association has divided the state ln- to ten districts. with an inspection department operating in each dis trict. At regular intervals each hank is inspected with view to i'm proving it's protective features.

NEW FIND OF
 SILVER FOUND
 IN so. YUKON
Stampeders Hit Trail from Whitehorse-Ore Valued
 at $20 to $50 a Ton.
Especial from Alaskan )

SKAGWAY, Aug. 2s. = There is considerable excitement in White horse according to advices received here oeer the reported new silver find on the Boswell River, a tribu- tary to the Hootalinqua, the later emptying into the Yukon, about 90 miles from Whitehorse.
 The location of the strike is given as about 15 miles up the Boswell River across the divide from the head of McKlintock River. The distance by trail is 40 miles from Whitehorse.
 Ore has been known to be in the district for years but was conceded too low grade to permit of opera tions. Prospectors returned from Boswell River but caused no ex- oitement until Territorial Assayer proved the ore assayed from $20 to $150 ton.
 Immediately there started a move mcnt and a large number left to stake claims, all stampeders going via the water roule.-
 The ore body is said to be 50 miles in width The strike comes at time when the Southern Yukon is looking hopefully to Keno. The latest find gives promise of renewed prosperity in the Southern Yukon.
