/ SAN MARCOS
Nearly 800 Follow Ancient
Il Car On Visit to Hays
County.
MAKES SIXTH TOUR
Motorists Vote Sunday
Z Trip Most Delightful
Of Season.
MAKES SIXTH TOUR

{ Nearly 800 San Antonians in about
$50 cars accompanied the San Antonio
Light automobile caravan on its visit
20 San Marcos, county seat of Hays
county, Sunday afternoon. Although
the turnout was not as great as on
some Of the preceding trips, it was
the consensus of opinion among those
who went along that the tour Sunday
was the most delightful made this
reason by San Antonio motorists I'M
der the auspices Of The Light and a
local automobile dealer.
4 Leading the caravan Sunday was a
1910 model Buick and following close
IL behind was 1924 model Buick, pre-
eenting quite contrast TO the little
car that was the pride of the Buick
Motor company fourteen years ago.
The ancient Buick was piloted by Car
roll Saunders, an employe Of the San
Antonio Buick company, while the
new 1924 type Buick was driven by
E. G. Spires, travelling representative
of the Buick Motor company, San An
tonio branch.
! Riding well uD in the lead were Of
fcinls of the San Antonio branch of
che Buick Motor company, including
Col. b. r. Webb. the general manager
and G.. ]. Flint, sales manager. and
their families. These officials Joined
"a the spirit of the occasion and en-.
joyed themselves just as thoroughly as

CHIEF IS "SOLD" ON
RICKENBACKER AFTER
BOYS LIFE SAVED
Value of Four .Dheel Brakes
Demonstrated in Un-
expected Way. :

At least two San Antonio public Of
ficials are now boosters for the four
wheel brake Rickenbacker. They are
Albert o. Van Ripper, thief of police,
and Fire Chief Sarran.
One day last week these two heads
of the fire and police departments were
invited by Clifton George Jr. of the
Texas Automobile Distributors, to so
for a ride in the new Rickenbacker
and see for themselves how the four
wheel brake. feature works. .-
A rain had fallen just few hours
before and the streets were wet and
slippery. The Rickenbacker was head
ed down Houston street at fair clip.
As the car neared an intersecting
street small boy on a wheel darted
out.
The officials uttered a low cry, ex-
pecting in the next minute to see the
lad run down. But here was where
they received a surprise. Pilot George
pressed his foot on the brake much in
the same manner as if he were coming
to an ordinary stop and the car
stopped almost on the spot, saving the
boys life.
According to George, Chief Van
Ripper became so enthusiastic over the
four-wheel brake Rickenbacker that he
expressed a desire to purchase one
capable OF holding seven passengers,
for use in the police department. But
Rickenbacker makes no seven-passen-
ger car so Captain Van Ripper will
have to be satisfied with one accom-
modating five passengers, George says.
San Antonio light. [volume] (San Antonio, Tex.) 1911-1993, 1923-09-02

concluded his talk by humorous ref
erence to San Antonio being a suburb
of San Marcos, adding that he hoped
the growth of the two cities eventual
ly would be such as to Permit San
Antonio people to live in town." r.
Guy LeStourgeon responded in behalf
of the caravan members.
A band composed exclusively Of San
Marcos talent entertained throughout
the afternoon much TO the delight Of
the motorists. This concert was given
as a special courtesy to the visiting
San Antonians. 1t is unnecessary to
say that this courtesy was appreciated.
Attendance Prizes Given.
After motorists had drunk their fill
Of ice cold soda water provided by the
San Antonio Buick company and eaten
all the melon they desired, attend
ance prizes were awarded by Z. W.
1arbrOugh, representing the San An
tonic Buick company. Mr.. Yarbrough
was assisted by little Miss Lorraine
Steincamp.
The first prize was given by the
Buick Motor company in the form of
fifteen gallons of Veedol motor oil.
The San Antonio Buick company, as
second prize, gave a Boyce mulo-
meter. Capt. l.. G. Lyman, state dis
tributor of Shur Seal piston rings,
gave set Of these rings while the
No-Mo-Glar company gave a No-Mo-
Glar DINNER.
A. b. Rogers, prominent San Mar
cos furniture dealer and owner of
Rogers park, took personal charge of
motorists on their arrival at the park
and assisted them in getting their cars
parked properly. j. 4. Buchanan,
owner Of Rogers park concessions, also
did everything he could to make the
stay of the visiting San Antonians en-
| joyalle.
Motorists were Of one accord in say
ing that Rogers park was one of the
most beautiful spots they had ever
visited. 1t is certain that thousands
of San Antonians would visit Rogers
park every Sunday were more known
of the place.

HOGS snout Put to Work

The snout of the pig has been put
to work by the farm labor shortage.
and the saying that everything Of the
pig is used but his squeal no longer
holds entirely good. The pig now
drinks at automatic waterers and
manipulates self-feeders with his
snout, which he formerly used to root
up pastures and emit loud squeals. He
needs no longer to root the ground or
squeal when hungry, the incentive
having been removed. A certain
amount Of time and labor also are
eliminated by the more simplified way
OF feeding and watering. Sanitary
concrete wallows or bath and automa-
tic oilers are used quite generally. and
they tend to decrease hog diseases
which are 80 easily contracted In mud
wallows. The hogs take to the con
crete baths" in preference to old mud
puddles.

R, R. RATE CUT
ON WOOL COMING

Word was received in Reno today
that the Transcontinental Freight
Rnreau has announced that the rail-
,oade will soon establish a rate OF
S2.35 per hundred pounds on "ooi
in grease, in bales, compressed 10
a density of nineteen pounds per
cubic foot, in carloads, oz'ooo
pounds minimum. and also Will pup
fish rates of $2.70, for wool In
grease. in sacks, carload minimum OF
$4,000 pounds. This is IN con-
formity with the recent order oil
the interstate commerce commission
that the intermediate rate shall not
exceed the terminal rates.
This means elimination OF DIS
elimination against the interior, &C
cording to shipping expert, for the
result will be, according to the an
,ouncement. an increase of the
ates from San Francisco and other
cast terminal points to Boston
rom $3.50, in bales, to $3.50.
There is no rate published on wool
from San Francisco in sacks.
Nevada points will benefit prin-
cipally by being placed on an equal
basis with San Francisco, this ship
ping authority said in explaining
although there will be some minor
reductions. The rate from Reno to
Boston, in sacks, will be reduced
from $2.76 to s2.70; the rate from
Elko to Boston, in sacks, will be re-
duced from S2.94 to $2.7O, while
the rate from Winnemucca to Bos-
ton. in sacks, will be reduced from
$3.O3 to $2.70.
In the shipments of bales, from
Reno to Boston the reduction will
be from $2.39 to $2.35; from Win
nemucca from $265 to $2.35; and
from Elko, $2.55 to $2.35. The re-
suit may be, according to wool men,
the elimination of such points as
San Francisco as shipping points for
secured wool, for the cost of ship
ping to San Francisco for cleaning
and thence to Boston would be more
than shipping of the wool in grease.
