SPECIALISTS COMING.
Will Be in Cottonwood For
Three Days at the Red Cross
ROoms-February 1, 2, 3.

The definate schedule for the
millinery and garment construc-
ton classes to be held by Miss
Zudreele, clothing specialist of
the University Extension and
Miss Cowgirl has been arranged.
February 1st to 3rd a millin-
cry class will be held in the Red
Cross rooms in Cottonwood.
Mrs. w. C. Frick, the project
leader is in charge Of the work
in this community and any one
desiring information about the
class will please confer with her.
February 5th to 7th a garment
construction class will be held
in Fem. The details of this
class are in the hands of Mrs.
Edwin Nelson the project leader.
These are three day classes
and the ladies taking part in the
work are urged to attend each
day. The meetings will start
promptly at 9 o'clock.
The specialists prefer that
not more than twelve ladies take
active part in the work, as they
are not able to individually
assist more than this number.
however all are invited to attend
the classes to gain what they
may from the instruction. 1t
is the aim of the instructors
holding these classes to train
these twelve ladies in this work
so that they may hold meetings
themselves to assist the other
women of the communities, as it
is impossible for the specialists
to assist each lady desiring this
work during the limited time
allotted to each county.

TWO RUNAWAYS.

A team belonging to John
Funke, hitched to a wagon, be-
came frightened while they
were standing in the Vollmer-
Clearwater drive way and ran
away. The runaways going at
top speed across the railroad
crossing at the depot upset the
wagon and as a result left the
bed and a portion of the rear end
of the wagon there, The team
then ran into a telephone pole
near the Cottonwood milling
company. The wagon was a
complete wreck and the harness
was badly torn. The team be-
came frightened when snow sid
from the top Of the warehouse
roof.
Of course, N. A. Lithelland,
the Vollmer agent had his side
of the story and says what made
the horses run away was that
barley John had been feeding
his team which he purchased
from the Clearwater.
The team of John Jungert ran
away Wednesday morning near
the depot with Mrs. Jungert as
the only occupant of the buggy
when the bride Of one of the
horses came off of the animal,
and had it not been for the quick
work Of John Schaefer of Green
creek, who was on his way to the
depot, and who managed to stor
the frightened horses, it might
have resulted more seriously.
Mrs. Jungert was in a very
nervous condition after the run.

HIGH CONSUMPTION
OF FUEL IN SOME
CARS is EXPLAINED
Tests Show Why the "Old
Boat" Won't Make 80
Miles to the Gallon.

Engineers testing a motor truck at
Waukesha, Wis, during the last seven
months, report they have discovered
why your automobile doesn't give 80
or more miles 10 the gallon OF gaso-
line.
Results of their tests have just been
given out at a meeting of the Midwest
section Of the Society of Automotiye
Engineers. Although they referred es-
pecially 10 the action of a , 1-2-ton
truck on city and country runs, 1t was
pointed out that they could just as well
apply to passenger automobiles.
The reasons for loss in fuel economy,
as learned by these tests, reports James
u. Fisher, chief engineer for the Wau-
kesha firm, are:
Lack of proper coordination OF
parts.
2-Wrong gear ratios.
3-Large engine.
3-Wrong type or size OF carburetor.
5-Too rich fuel mixture.
6ILarge radiators and inefficient fan
locations.
ton. -,
in the frame.
Of these faults, the outstanding cause
for loss in fuel economy, said Fisher,
was the carclessness with which manu-
facturers select their units. The result
is a loss in power through lack OF CO.
ordination of the various parts.
To correct this fault, the Waukesha
engineer sought to fit one part to an
other so that all in the engine and trans
mission would work most economically
together. Besides this, however, he
made three significant innovations IN
the test truck:
Higher water jacket temperatures.
aluminium pistOns.
3-Higher compression.
Originally, the truck made AZ miles
10 a gallon in city runs and g. miles
on country runs. BY making the changes
suggested Fisher was able to get 123
miles to gallon on city runs and III on
country runs. .,
Similar results could be obtained with
passenger auto, said Fisher. That
would mean trebling of the mileage now
obtainable from your engine.

REMOVE EMBLEM TAX
Tags Showing Membership In Motor
Clubs Now Held Exempt.

Washington, ID. C., Jan. 1S.-"Em-
blems designed to be attached to auto
mobiles to show membership in auto
mobile clubs, associations, etc." are no
longer subject to a federal excise tax,
according to a ruling just made by the
internal revenue bureau, following the
raising of the question of the justice
of the tax by the legislative board of
the National Motorists Association.
Under regulations adopted for the
purpose of interpreting section 900 Of
the Revenue Acts of 1913 and 1921,
the radiator emblem was held to fall
within the category of an automobile
accessory or part. AS such il was taxed
D per cent. This tax represents a con-
siderable sum in the aggregate and in
the case Of some n. NJ. A. clubs as much
as $1,000 year.
The request which brought about the
amendment to the regulations was sub
mitted several weeks ago to Deputy
Commissioner A. c. Holden, in charge
of sales tax. 1t was supplemented by
brief which emphasized the points
brought out in the oral argument as TO
why the emblem was improperly clas-
sified.
These arguments were fully sustained
by an official communication received
from Deputy Commissioner Holden, in
which he says:
you are advised that after consider
alton Of the matter this office now holds
that emblems. designed to be attached
to automobiles to show membership in
automobile clubs, association, etc, are
not considered automobile accessories or
parts and are not subject to tax under
section 900 of the Revenue Acts OF
1918 and 1921"

with a phenomenal new motor, new
chassis and new bodies, disclosed for the
first time at the opening of the New
York Show, the Chandler Motor Car
Company enters 1928 with the most
notable cars in its history" says Tom
Little, manager of the Burton-Lary
Motor Company, San Antonio Chandler
distributor.
~The Pixies ePak motor is naturally
the outstanding feature of the new
Chandler. Its name is literally correct.
1t was earned. for in order that the
motor might have every attribute OF
power to pull any hill, every assurance
of safe and facile steering, OF non-head-
ing and of silent action undr= all con-
ceivable conditions, it was buiIt TO con-
uuer the strains of Pixies Peak, the most
lofty automobile highway known to the
world.
":Those who planned, engineered, test
ed and built the new motor reasoned
that if it had capacity enough to make
Pixies Peak easy, it would have sufficient
margin to triumph in the most extreme
tests that might be exacted OF il.
"The new motor was built to a
mountains specification in order COM
pletely to meet a public demand that
constantly grows more critical in respect
to automobile performance.
"The extent TO which this has been
accomplished is almost revolutionary.
Faults that 10 some extent have been
present in almost every make Of car
are eliminated from this one"

Kansas City Banker Praises
"Gray Goose" After
Long Trip.

NJ. oppenstein, prominent banker
and real estate dealer of Kansas City
and a brother of the Kansas City police
commissioner, arrived last week after
driving through in his Wills Sainte
Claire phaeton. He plans to spend the
winter here.
Immediately after arriving in the
city, Mr.. Oppenstcin called on Clifton
George, local Wills Sainte Claire dis
tributor, and told of the wonderful per-
Torrance of his car on the long trip.
Mr.. Oppenstein expressed great en-
thusiasm over the performance of his
car. He said that his gasoline mileage
for the entire trip was better than sew
cnteen miles to the gallon. He stated
that the reason he checked the mileage
of the entire trip was because he had
believed it impossible to get seventeen
miles to the gallon of gasoline in an
eight-cylinder car.
Mr.. Oppenstein said that despite the
fact that he left Kansas City with a
10 per cent solution of alcohol in his
radiator, at no time during the trip did
the engine become heated. Only one
pint Of water was used during the en-
tire trip, he said.

BETTER NOT SAY 1T

Bad news travels faster than good
news. There is an old saying, mo
news is good news" Let a Payette
man be converted at church service
and there is not much of stir, but
let him be convicted of crime and the
news leaps by word of mouth from
one end of the community to the other.
How unkind we sometimes are when
our acquaintances suffer misfortune.
Troubles are bound to come to us all
in some shape or form, and what we
say about others today may apply to
us tomorrow. News Is no respecter
OF persons. We are prone to criticize
the ways of others when we ought to
be watching our own. What folks say
of one another sometimes hurts more
than anything they could have done.
News, either good Or bad, grows and
becomes exaggerated as it is passed
along. When the news is good it
makes no difference how it is exag
gerated-it can never do any positive
harm. But bad news peddled around
may bring sorrow and ruin upon ped
pie who are not deserving of punish
nent.

is IT ANY WONDER

In spite of the precaution taken by
the railroads OF the United States TO
avoid accidents at crossings, the cas-
ualties to persons driving automo-
bile is continually increasing. Las.
season all railroads in the united
States had their crossing posted WIN
large posters headed, Gross cross
ings Cautiously and many other ex-
pensive measures are taken to warn
the people of the danger in crossing
railroad tracks, but the casualty nst
still increases at an alarming rate.
There are so many thousands of
inexperienced people allowed to run
automobiles without having TO pass
any test or in any way quallty SO lar
as their ability to properly operate
car is concerned, it Is no wonder
there are so many accidents. Can
you imagine the results, should the
operators of railroad locomotives be
allowed to put their wives or ten
year old boy at the throttle with only
a few hours experience, or a man
"half shot, with a bottle OF moon
shine on his hip. This may sound
like a passing joke, but there Is just
as much logic in permitting an IN
experienced person or a man under
the influence of liquor at the throttle
of a railroad locomotive and expect
safe results, as there is to allow them
to continue at the wheel OF an auto
mobile.
Were the laws of our country as
rigid governing traffic regulations
and who should be allowed to oper-
ate automobiles, as the rules and
equations of the railroad companies
is to who are allowed to operate rail-
Dad locomotive it would eliminate
20 per cent of railroad crossing and
'ther automobile accidents.
