 Outing On Farm

Last Sunday proved an ideal day for the annual barbecue and picnic given the employees of Mccormack Brothers Motor company.
 This year the outing was held at the Mccormack country place near Mount Pinson, spot noted for it's natural beauty and fine springs. The em- ployes of Mccormack brothers, togeth- CT with their families, began to arrive early Sunday morning and soon there was large, congenial crowd assembled on the picnic grounds.
 Barbecued meats of various kinds, sandwiches, soft drinks, watermelons and other good things incidental to an old-fashioned picnic dinner were served in a cool, shady spot near one of the largest springs. Later in the after noon the event of the season, base ball game between the service force and the sales department, was held on the diamond of the New Castle Coal company. The game was greatly en- joyed by all present and terminated in favor of the service boys by score of 12 to z. This leaves each of the de- partments with game to it's credit, the sales crew having won last years game,

WOCOPEP SALES
 SET NEW RECORD
July GaIlonage Again Ex-
 ceeds All Former Fig v-es For Sales

Not content with having piled up a new record during the Woco club con test in May which set a new figure for the sale of one particular motor fuel in the Birmingham district, the "Woco Peppera" of the Wofford Oil company during July set a new figure for one months business, according to announcement by officials of the company On Saturday. The July busi- ness set an unheard of total for the county, it was stated, in spite of the enormous increase recorded in May.
 The record of growth of sales in Woco Pep have been little short of marvellous in the six years the now fa- nous benzol-blend motor fuel has been marketed in this district. During the year 1923 the monthly sales reached new peaks that average. from 40 to 50 per cent over the same months of the year 1922, and monthly sales in 1924 have exceeded the company's fondest expectations in maintaining the percent age of increase.
 Woco Pep is now marketed in Ala bama, Georgia, Tennessee and Missis- sippi and the total gallonage of the Wofford company is thought to exceed that of any independent motor fuel job ping concern in the country. Millions of gallons of Woco Pep, manufactured in Birmingham, are sold in the Woco territory each year and Birmingham has risen to a position of leadership in the motor fuel world as consequence.

 DODGE PRESIDENT
All Executives Except Chairman
 Of Board Retained

Present officers and directors of Dodge Brothers, Inc, with the excep- tion of the chairman of the board, were reelected at the annual meeting of the stockholders, Tuesday, July 15, at p. m. A resolution was passed abolish ing this office. Russell Huff, for near ly ten years chief engineer of Dodge Brothers, was elected as a new mem Der of the board.

 The officers chosen were President and general manager, Frederick J. Haynes; vice president, Arthur T. Waterfall; treasurer, John Ballantyne secretary and assistant treasurer, Harry V. Popeney; assistant secetary, R. J. Fry.
 The last fiscal year was the largest in Dodge Brothers history and the first six months of 1924 were greater than any corresponding period in point of deliveries to retail purchasers.

LONG TOUR M
 CLEVELAND SIX
Old Indian Scout Picks One
 Shot Car For Trip

Most everyone knows Colonel King Stanley, the old Indian scout and trail blazer---a friend to every motorist. No doubt the colonel has travelled more miles by motor car than any other liv- ing man today" says W. F. Rousseau, local Cleveland six distributor. Tn all, this gentleman has crossed the American continent 66 times
 While in Cleveland recently the colonel had occasion to see the 1925 Cleveland six with the mileage motor and the remarkable One Shot auto matic chassis fabrication system, and immediately decided this was the car he wanted to take him on his continual tour from here to there'
 If there is anybody who knows the off trail wonders and the beauty spots of this country, it is the colonel. For years he has sought out the glories and beauties of scenic America for the Amer ican Automobile association and in the interest of the United States govern ment. Indeed, the name Colonel King Stanley has become a by-word among tourists who look for those rarely vis- ited points of interest that lay off the trail.
 '"The colonel has started on his trip west and expects to return to Cleveland in the spring"

CHART ACCIDENTS

 The only way to correct accidents is to find out where they occur and why. Cities know their accident points, but how smany accidents and what caused them is rarely recorded.
 Cities should tabulate all accidents in their various types, for a year. Then, using a large map of the city, place dot or a pin for each accident. This spots the information, and accident con centrations show up. Then correct the conditions which caused them.
