Pacific when two twcnty-foot whale
boats collidcd several miles out from
San Francisco Because of their
heavy clothing, oilskins and scamen's
boots they were saved only with Diff
ficulty.
The only prominent member of the
cast in either of the boats was Robert
McKim. Irwin V. Willat, who directed
the picture, Billie Dove, Malcolm Nc
Gregor and Lon CLANCY were inter
ested spectators on the tug, which
also bore the battery of cameras
grinding steadily away.
In this scene of the Irwin Y. Willat
production the boats we're to be chas-
ing whale for some distance. The
gunncrs in the bows were to be shown
preparing to fire their massive forty
pound harpoon guns. The boats had
occasionally approached each other
closely but at the moment of firing
they crashed together, the bow of one
being smashed and both, capsizing.
Mr.. Whats tug Immediately came
to the rescue. Cold and shivering,
the men were hauled aboard and
headed back for the schooner and dry
clothing and hot drinks.

North DakOtans Take Good
Care of Books, and Also
Show Good Taste in Selec-
ton, State Librarian Says
Growth of System Pre-.
dicted by Miss Downey

The state library's mail order"
plan CT supplying books to readers
in parts of the state without ado
quatc library facilities is growing at
remarkable rate, according to Miss
Mary f. Downlcy, state librarian.
The books are sent through travelling
Libraries to schools, womcn's clubs
and other organizations, and small
packages Of books and papers arc
sent to individuals in all parts Of
the state.
An appreciation is shown Of the
service in the manner which people
take care of the books and phamph-
lets, Miss Downley said, declaring
far better care is taken of the books
sent through the mails than is taken
Of books out of the public libraries
Of the various cities in which she has
been engaged in that line of work.
Few books are returned in damaged
condition. Some arc lost but usual
ly those who lose them make an offer
to pay before a request to this cf-
feet is sent them, she said.
There are now about 800 travelling
Libraries in circulation, having a to-
tai Of $4,000 books. They are sent
from organization to organization
throughout the state, and the books
arc picked with care. In the "cOm-
munity libraries" there usually is
one third Of the books relating to
social and educational subjects, one
third are ehildren's books and a
third fiction. Because of limited
number of works Of fiction not many
book of this kind arc sent to indivi-
duals.
The people Of the state have Il
highly developed taste FOR good
books, according to Miss Downey.
Eliminating fiction because the num-
Der of books is small, Miss Downcy
says the demand for books is in the
following order: l. Education and
sociology; 2. Books on North Dako-
ia and her history; B. Literature in
general; 4. Travels and history; 5.
Biography.
The demand for books is irrcgu
lar and at times sudden demand
which develops from all parts of the
state is uncxblainablc. There are
usually two or three periods in the
year when an unusual number of re-
quests come in for book on ctiquet-
tie, Miss Downcy, said, and she has
not been able to trace the source of
the demand. Anything about the
| state of North Dakota usually is in
circulation most Of the time, includ-
ing history or various localities, ma
! tural resources, coal, clay, flowers,
birds, etc. and the library is unable
to supply all of the requests for ma
terial on the history Of the Indians
Some years ago a number of
farmers libraries" were prepared
containing works dealing with the
farm and farm problems. There is
practically no demand for such ira

116,O8O FORDS
FOR FEBRUARY
Acute Situation Certain as
5000 a Dav Fail to
Meet Demand

Detroit, Mich, Mar. 24.--With 49,
$50 Ford cars sold at retail in Febru-
AIRY new record for the shortes.
month in the year has been establish
ed. February sales exceeded those OF
January by more than 10000 and
marked the eleventh month in which
Ford sales have topped the 100000
line.
This sales record bears out prcdic-
tons made at the opening of the year
that an acute shortage in Ford cars
is certain and this shortage is eX-
pccted to be felt within the next two
months with the increased volume of
car buying which is always attendant
upon the spring months.
Even the high production schedule
set at the Ford Motor company's fac
tory here, which will reach 5000 cars
and trucks a day about April l, will
be unable to meet the apparent de-
mand for Ford products.
Anticipating Il great increase in the
demand for Ford cars during the
present year the factory here laid
plans for increasing production to the
5000 car day schedule and since
January first had been constantly
speeding up manufacture to reach this
figure. Demand so far has been Of
| such great proportions as to absorb
nearly all production, and stocks in
hands of dealers are at present the
/ lowest they have been in months.
February sales of llG,0S0 cars were
/ made in the fact of unfavorablc
weather conditions in many sections
of the country which tied up freight
traffic and prevented many deliver
les. This was particularly true
throughout the Northwest, the north
crn tier of states and in New Eng
land. In California, too, cold weather
during u part Of the month had it's
effect upon car sales. 1
Yet with even these unfavorable
conditions. the February sales topped
those Of January by Is per cent and
set new high record for Mid-wintcr
selling.
With February the eleventh month
in which Ford car sales have gone
over the 100000, the total for this
period is close to 1,25O,00O cars.
Peak cars usually arc reached dur.
ing the summer months with drops in
the fall and winter. This feature OF
automobile absorption by the buying
public has been completely changed
during the last few months through
the activities of the Ford dealer or.
ganization which has raised the
'peak" line to include every month In
the year.

CAMPAIGN ENDS TODAY
SHOULD FOLLOW ADVICE

On the last day of the Tribune's
campaign against the speeder and
the unwary pedestrian, It seems
to a summary of the week, includ-
ing the mental and moral good ac-
complished by testimonial and edi-
torial, and the physical betterment
brought about by concrete example.
In editorial and opinion the
motorist has been warned against
excessive speed at any time. He
has been asked by prominent busi-
ness men TO keep his a under con-
troll constantly. He has been
warned against faulty brakes and
untrue headlights. He has been
asked to consider the pedestrian
constantly while driving in h
downtown section.
In editorial and opinion. the
pedestrian has been cautioned
against crossing any busy thorough
fare without looking right and left
He has been asked to confine his
crossing to the intersections. and
not to attempt to gain the other
side of the street by the middle OF
the block route. He has been
warned against teasing n motorist
by allowing him to come as close as
possible without actually striking
him. He has been asked by promi-
nent business men to consider the
motorist at all time while walking
in the downtown section.
In this way, the Tribune and the
Casper automobile dealers and those
who have loyalty supported the
campaign, both financially and
morally. hope that they have sue
ceeded in establishing between the
motorist and the pedestrian a
greater understanding. All of US
are pedestrians at some time n
