Seeine YOSEMITE on
ZEROLENE-lubyiMted bearings

If you haven't travelled the Horseshoe
Route out of Merced to Yosemite in one
of the Pierce-Arrow touring cars oper-
ated by the Yosemite Stage and Turn
pike Company, you've missed something.
But whether or not you have made
this trip, you'll be interested, as motor
list, in knowing that the twenty five
Pierce-Arrow cars used in this service
are fabricated with Zerolene. The man
ager of this famous stage line writes:
1--WE have been operating stage line since
1911 and have always used Zerolene. Re-
Gently we disposed of some cars that had
been in our service for ten years, and dur
ing that period none of them had ever had
bearing scraped."
Whether you drive Pierce-Arrow or
Ford, the use of Zerolene, of the proper
body, will not only cut down your oil bill,
but give you greater gasoline mileage, less

WRITTEN BY A TYRO AFTER
OUR LAST d. o. X. K.
CEREMONIAL
1t was nice day in October, last
September in July.
The moon lay thick upon the
ground, the mud shown in the
sky.
The flowers were singing sweetly,
the birds were in full bloom,
Then went into the cellar to
sweep an upstairs room.
The time was Tuesday morning on
a Wednesday just at night,
1 saw a thousand miles away 8
house just out of sight.
The walls projected backwards, the
front was round the back.
It stood alone with two others, the
fence was whitewashed black.
It was midnight on the ocean, not
q street car was in sight;
The Kennewick courier-reporter. [volume] (Kennewick, Wash.) 1914-1938, 1924-03-27

The sun was shining brightly and
it rained all day that night.
It was a summer day in winter,
the rain was showing fast;
A barefoot boy with shoes on stood
sitting on the grass.
It was evening and the rising sun
was hidden in the night.
And everything that you could see
was hidden out of sight.
While the organ peeled potatoes,
Lard was rendered by the choir.
While the sexton rang the dishrag,
someone set the church afire.
Holy smoked" the preacher shout
ed. In the rain he lost his hair.
Now his head resembles heaven,
for there is no parting there.
Ut all sad words of tongue
or pen, The saddest are these:
I'm broke again."
