Walsh Store Erects a Warehouse
A two-story frame dwelling that
stood across the road opposite the
once famous British Hollow brewery,
and that was erected by a man by
the name of Anton Zeller away back in
the seventies, and that later became
the home of the late Stanley Bushnell,
was recently purchased by j. F
Walsh, enterprising Tennyson store
keeper who had it moved intact to
the rear of his building in Tennyson.
The job of moving was under the sup
ervision of a Mr.. Rollins, practical
house mover of Platteville. He moved
the building distance of one and a
half miles and placed it where Mr..
Walsh wanted it. 1t was moved on
large iron rollers and was drawn by
two tractor engines, not a board be-
ing broken. Some difficulty was eX-
perienced with overhead telephone
and electric wires but no damage re-
suited Mr.. Walsh built a large adj
dition to his store last year but his
rapidly increasing business demands
more room. The new building will be
used for warehouse. 1t pays to adj
vertise especially when one has the
stock to back the advertising up.

Lessons From Accidents.

Sometimes the drive of an auto
mobile can greatly minimize the Sc
robustness of the consequences of an
accident by keeping in mind GER
tain facts. The point is clearly il
lustrated in a recent instance where a
woman who was driving a small car
lost her life when colliding with a
heavy touring car.
1t is said that in this instance a
fatality might have been avoided had
the drivers Of the respective cars
given proper consideration to the diff
ference in the weights of the cars.
1t was almost certain that il the
large car, ran into the smaller one,
or vice versa, the latter would be
overturned or at least badly damaged.
The impact of 1000 pounds meeting 6
1000 at a velocity OF about forty feet
a second could have only one result
If the driver of the lighter car had
deliberately turned into a stationary
object (such as a parked car, tree,
a telegraph pole) the impact would
have been about one-fourth that in
volved in colliding with the moving
car
When caught in a trap there is in
variably an alternative If you are
quick enought to realize it. Looking for
such an alternative. however. can be-
come just as much of a reflex ac-
tion as reaching for the emergency
brake. Avoid, if possible. hitting a
moving vehicle. Where there is an
alternative collide with the lighter
one.
Evening star., 1924-07-13
Get Evidence First.

In event Of a collision too many car
owners commence blaming it on the
other fellow before stopping to con-
slider that their own damage is suf-
ficient to incriminate them From the
damage to any car a number Of con-
clusions can be drawn, and because
this is so it follows that the damage
to any car speaks louder than words.
When it was discovered that two
cars parked near each other had been
ir a slight collision the owner of one
n achine Immediately accused the
other Of carelessness. you'll pay for
this,' he shouted at the top of his
voice, working himself into a ninety
horsepower rage. why don't you
learn to drive before smashing up the
univerSe?-
The owner Of the other car refused
TO grow excited. There was nothing
| to become alarmed over. The only
damage on his car was a dented rear
left fender. The only damage to the
| other car was a right rear fender.
| The latter was parked behind the for
mer. The damage told the whole
truth and nothing but the truth
Some motorists will always en-
dnavor to shift the blame to some one
else. In such cases the accused has
| but to examine the damage and get
witnesses to attest to the plain facts
as revealed in dents and scratches.
When there is a question as to who
| is to blame the main point to be
! considered is to find out where the
| cars were hit.

new METHODS CUT
MOTOR CAR PRICES
Progress in Manufacturing and

Greater value Is received today in
motor cars. tires and gasoline than
in practically any other commodity
in general use. according to d. A.
Burke, president and general man.
ager of the Peerless Motor Car Com
pany.
"As a matter of fact" says Mr..
Burke. these three things are the
only ones ! can think of at the mo-
ment in which the buyer receives
more for his money today than he did
ten years ago.
In computing the purchasing pow
er OF the dollar Of today. the Ma
merce has used the 1913 dollar as a
working basis" continues Mr. Burke.
Auto Prices Slow to Rise.
With this as q standard we find
that the dollar Of 1913 now buys III
cents worth Of automobiles. 123
cents worth of tires and 1O1 cents
worth of gasoline.
''As a somewhat violent contrast to
this, consider the advance in cost of
living in general. Here we find that
the 1913 dollar is worth only 81 cents
Today, your dollar buys approximate
ly 81 cents worth of clothing. so
cents worth of shoes, 6s cents
worth Of food, So cents worth of
furniture and house furnishings
"As every one knows, rents have
scared in the last ten years. We find
that throughout the country the dol
lar is worth an average of 81 cents in
rent as compared to ten years ago.
In building, either frame, brick or
concrete. your 1913 dollar is worth
less than so cents. In farm crops
your buying power is somewhat
greater. almost rs cents, and live
stock comes close to the par OF ten
years ago, bringing SO cents worth
There is very definite reason
why you can buy greater value in
automobiles now than you could a
decade ago. In spite of the great ad-
vances made in automobile design
and efficiency, the manufacturing
