All Men of Unusual
Strength Are Sar,sons

The story of Samson is found In
Judges 13, and the three following
chapters. This man takes his place
in Scripture as a Judge or ruler, an
office which he filed for 20 years;
as a Nazarite, that Is, one bound by
a vow of a peculiar kind to be set
apart from others for the service
Of the Almighty. The obligation
was really for a definite time, and
during that time the NaZarite was
bound to abstain from wine and ev-
cry production of the vine, and
from every kind of Intoxicating
drink. He was forbidden to cut the
hair of his head, or to approach any
dead body. In the third place Sam
son appears as a man endowed with
supernatural physical strength. 1t
is this latter quality that first
comes to ones mind when he is
mentioned, and it is because of
that wonderful quality than any
man of unusual strength is called
a Samson. For instance, a London
carpenter, named Thomas TOpham,
has been called "the British Sam
SON." 1t is related that in Cold
Bath fields, London. on May %.
1741, in the presence of thousands
of spectators Topham lifted three
hogsheads Of water, weighing 1886
pounds. Topham was born in 171O,
and died in 1853. 1t was related
that he was driven to suicide by
domestic troubles.

MORE FARMS IN
STATE THAN IN
1920, REPORTED

The number of farms in the Uni
ted States has decreased 1915
since 1920, the department of com
merce disclosed recently in an an
nouncement of the 1925 farm cen
sus, which places the total at g.
372,6OS.
The decrease was not general
some sections reporting declines
while increases were shown in 9th
ers.
Texas with 466,42G farms led in
the field in the 1925 census and
also had the greatest increase, 30
387 over the 1920 figures. It's rate
Of increase, Z per cent, was not the
highest, however, Nevada with 23.7
per cent, leading in this respect,
with 1912 farms in 1925, as COM
pared with the 3,163 in 1920.
State figures on the number OF
farms as compared with 1920
Arizona, 10,803, increase 82S.
Colorado 58,016, decrease 1913.
New Mexico, 1850 in 1925, in
crease 1,S46 over 1920.

Sales OF Studebakers
In September OF This
Year Pass 1924 Mark

At three o'clock on the afternoon
of September Is, shipment Of mo-
tor cars from the Studebaker fac
tories passed the entire shipments
made by Studebaker in the year of
1924.
This record sale was made pos
sible by three factors of manufac-
ture which have kept the factories
running at capacity and overtime
during the entire summer, through
September and into October.
The three factors, as set forth by
officials of the corporation, are:
1-One-profit production: $50
100000 invested in plants and
equipment for the manufacture of
all the vital parts of the car.
2-Unit-built constructions All
the aforementioned vital parts be-
ing designed, engineered and man
ufactured by one concern for each
other, they function as a unit; no
sacrifice Of engineering, designing
or constructing need be made to
fit one part to- another.
3-The company's adoption of
the policy of not bringing out new
yearly models has stabilized the
value of Studebaker cars. The
company has been building a large
volume of reserve mileage into it's
cars, yet this was wasted each year
when new models deprecated the
existing cars by 40 per cent. The
purchase of car now becomes a
permanent investment in transpor-
tation, not merely an annual out
lay for style.
With three full months to go,
Studebaker's 1925 sales are we'll
on the way to establishing a new
annual sales record

PUBLIC OPINION
Editor WinsloW Mail:

Editor WinSlow Mall:
have been told that the city
council at it's meeting last FRIDAY
evening passed an ordinance pro
hibiting the keeping of stock with
in the city limits, the prohlbltlon
including horses, even those useu
for haulage and riding. Thls orul-
nance will work a great hardshlp
on many people, myself lncluoeo'
and I wish publicly to protest
1t is a well known fact tnat
horse corral is not unsanltary. "A
clean corral is not offensive. IL
is not harmful. On the contrary
the ammonia created around a
stable is a natural antiseptlc and
nermeates the immediate neighbor-
hood. All people who have WORKED
with and handled horses know TINS.
Winslow is still a cowboy rem
devious, and many cowboys ride 10
town from the ranches and ranges
about here They stay overnight
at certain homes and hotels, quar-
tering their riding animals IN barns
about town. What will they do
with their mounts hereafter!
There are, too, a number OF town
neODle and visitors here who ike
to ride for sport and exercise.
These people. will be deprived OF
a healthful hobby, fer they can not
keep riding horses in town, nor
rent. as no one will be able to
keep horses on the outskirts OF the
CITY. where they will be unguarded.
There are months at time IN
Winslow, when the snow and mud
make the city streets Impossible
for trucks and autos, that hauling
and drayage must be done by
horse power, but where can the
horses be kept?
I, for one, can not estabnsh
corral outside of town, and then
hire a man to stay in the barn "A
hours a day to guard and care for
the animals, and that would be
necessary l could, and so could
the other transfer men, keep horses
under those expensive conditions If
the prices of wood, coal and haul
ing were raised to meet the eX-
pense, but it is hardly probable
that consumers will stand for any
more increases in the cost of living.
Again expressing my dissatisfac-
ton with the new law, | beg to re-
main,
Very respectfully yours,
CHAS. DAZE.

THERE was time when the
L automobile buyer seeking great
est value for his dollar was justified
in considering a car Of second-grade
quality, which was reasonably salts
factory from the standpoint of trans
portation alone.
But with the advent of Stude-
bakers One-Proft manufacturing
policy, cars of the finest quality, such
as the Standard Six Sedan illustrated
below, are now only slightly higher
in price than those of second grade.
This small difference in price is
practically nothing in comparison to
the vast difference in materials and
workmanship-plus increased pride
of ownership, and the extra service
that a Studebaker gives.
Under this One-Proft system we
build in Our own plants all bodies,
engines, clutches, steering gears, diff

Overland Sedan Pulls

the Willys-Overland factory. A
special built truck towed heavy
trailer weighing seven and One-half
tons in it's trip across the contin-

An Overland standard sedan, just
off the assembly line, was attached
to the trailer by heavy chain.
Four men occupied the sedan, while

high gear After the test was over,
an official of the film company de-
clared: Il would have wagered
500 to nothing that that car would
not have budgad that big load"
The test was the more remark
able because OF its taking place on
a hot day with the four huge
wheels of the trailer sinking deep
into the soft asphalt street. 1t was

ferentials, springs, gear sets, axles,
gray iron castings and drop forgings.
Thus we eliminate extra profits and
overhead that all other manufac-
turers Except Ford) must pay to
outside parts and body makers =
and what we save goes to the buyers
of Studebaker cars.
And because we have facilities for
manufacturing all vital parts on this
One-Proft basis, we are able to de-
sign, engineer and build every Stude-
baker car as a complete harmonious
unit. Being Unit-Built, the Stude-
baker functions as unit-with all
the advantages of unit over assem-
bled construction.
The result is years longer life
scores of thousands of miles of ex-
cess transportation greater riding
comfort - minimum repair costs -
and, finally, higher resale value.

Scotch Terriers

The first pair of Scotch terriers
ever exhibited at a bench show in
this country were shown to the pub
lie in 1883, at which time there was
a decided dislike for the dogs, and
the show was criticized for admit
ting the pair, but after Doctor
Ewing of st. Louis and other men
began developing the dogs and were
able to show their finer qualities,
public sentiment developed in their
favor and Scotty is a welcome dog
at all the bench shows and has won
his way to national popularity.

SCHOOL k|DD|ES
ENTER CANDY
BUSINESS
Pupils Form Companies
and Operate Stores to
Get Experience.

Students at Sidney Lanier, Joel
Chandler Harris, Nathaniel Haw-
thorne and Mark Twain junior schools
have gone into the candy business.
That is they have taken over from
the cafeteria department the candy
counters in those schools and will
operate them for 30 days, perhaps
longer If the experiment proves a
success.
The idea is that they thus may gain
practical experience in merchandising.
In order to carry out every detail
of the business, a stock company COM
posed Of students in the commercial
departments Of the schools has been
formed. Officers of the companies
have been elected, money borrowed to
start business, notes given for the loan
and shares sold among all the students
in each school.
Purchase of stock for the counters
is made by the general manager who
acts as purchasing agent. Clerks have
been appointed to attend to customers.
An inventory Of the stock on hand was
taken and actual cash paid. Strict
bookkeeping is kept, daily sales posted,
additional supplies purchased as need
ed, and cost account kept.
At the close Of the 80 days an in
ventory will be taken, trial balance
struck and the profit or loss shown on
the months business. All details OF
operation of the counters will be in
the hands of the students themselves.

NEW YORK, Dec. 5.-Not since
Henry Hudson swore round Dutch
oaths as he guided his craft up the
river named for him have leather
breeches been in vogue. Peter Stuy-

when he played at ten pins on Bowling
Green, but there is no record of such
costumes woven into the saga Of his
strikes and spares. Now comes suede
knickers to match the suede waistcoats
the outdoor men are wearing this sea-
son, thus making a two-piece outfit.
In common parlance these leather
jackets are known as "wind-breakers. )"
They will be worn for skating, skiing,
ice-boating, etc.
Another startling knicker entry OF
recent vintage is the blazer jackets

ROBSTOwN, Tex, Dec. 5.-Re-
ouIfing from the long growing season,
mild climate and heavy fall rains,
the nillion-dollar feed crop in the
B1acklanders territory Of Nueces, San
Patricio. Kleberg and Jim Wells coun-
6es has made reduced feed freight

Important part In securing the reduced
freight rates for the feed shipped into

81 Having utmost confidence in the
Ibng growing season and the excep-
s6onally mild climate Of the South

'ufs and land owners went right ahead
- spite Of the drouth which had blast

RAINS BRING REWARD.
I Thsn came the heavy fall rains
which spread like q golden flood over
the parched and thirsty acres and in
