Touring Car
Still Best
Seller

Despite the growing general
tendency toward the closed type
Of car, the touring car is the
biggest selling automobile in
America. Severe weather gives
closed ears great sales impetus
and in the north sections Of the
country where the climate is
rigorous, the closed types are
fayorites. In flair weather" dis
tricts, however, the preference
for open cars Of family size is
sufficiently pronounced to turn
the balance for the entire nation.
In this connection reports OF
the Ford Motor Company show
a demand for touring cars which
is unusual for this season Of the
year and which calls for . pro-
duction Of 100000 Of these cars
during October.
The touring car always has
been the most popular in the
Ford line. The exceptional de-,
mand at the present time, how.
ever, may be accounted for by
the new features Of comfort and
convenience which have been In
corporated in the improved types.
Addition Of . door at the
drivers left, storm curtains
which afford complete protection
and open with doors. greater leg
room and . more attractive sp-
pearance in the general lines Of
the car have all contributed to
bringing increased popularity to
the five-passenger open type.

BUICK LEAD|NG
AS TOURIST
CARRIER
Has 3522 Cars in 33,l94
Visiting Yellowstone
Park This Year.

Touring has become an increasingly
popular mode Of vacation travel as evil
denced by a report from Yellowstone
National Park, where record is kept
of cars which go through each season.
The rugged trials which lead to yell
lowstone form test of automobile
stamina only exceeded by the abrupt
slopes in the park itself.
In spite of the hard going which
the majority of motorists must over
come in order to complete the Yellow
stone trip, the 1925 season showed a
substantial increase in the number of
ears over 1924, which in turn showed
a gain over the 1928 figures.
33,184 CARS THIS YEAR.
In 1928, 1850 cars passed through
the park. In 1924 this number was
increased to 30,6S9, and this year the
total grew to 1894.
1t is interesting to note that two
makes of cars make up large por-.
ton of the total number to make the
trip. Ford leads with S736, although
figures show decrease over the mum.
Der in 1924; when 1921 were regis,
tered. Buick leads the medium priced
class with 1922 cars in 1925, a sub.
stantial increase over the two preced-
ing years. In 1923 the Buick total
was 1857 and in 1924, 1923, accord
ing to the San Antonio Buick Com
pany.
The rest of this years registrat ton
was scattered among III makes, only
a few of which had as many as 1000
cars registered. Buick and Ford made
up about 81 per cent of the entire
number.
PRAISES PERFORMANCE.
A letter from a Buick owner who
made the Yellowstone trip this sum-
mcr makes interesting comment on the
stamina of the Buick car in rough
going. He says: when we got up
into the mountains we noticed that
many of the cars We passed were
Bucks. We kept a rough estimate
and about three out of every five were
Bucks. The normal ratio of differ
ent makes had disappeared. When we
got back down into the flat country
again many makes reappeared which
VIC had not seen at all during the
mountain miles"

GERS are now busy in having all the
ground cleared of brush and stumps
and will erect new steel wire fence
of the same design as that chosen by

ing up of the ground, leveling, and
the new fence across both properties,
a great Improvement will be effected
The line fence between the cemeter
les will be removed and on the line,
a joint driveway maintained that will
enable usuers of both cemeteries to
reach the rear portion of the ceme-
teries more conveniently than hereto
fore. All in all, it is a worthy UNDER
taking and when the improvements
are completed will have the approval
of everyone interested in both ceme-

Rev. Beale, Milwaukee,
Addressed Civic Club
LADIES' NIGHT BROUGHT OUT IN
CREASED ATTENDANcE-WILL
MEET MONTHLY

1t was Ladies' night at the meeting
of the Mems Civic Club last Tuesday
night. A delicious supper was served,
and considering the roads and wealth
er, there was very good attendance
Heretofore the Club has been able
to denend for it's speakers upon resort
ters ere on their vacations, and a
most profitable and entertaining ser
les of meetings have resulted. Now
the Club faces the necessity of bring
ing at least part of it's speakers from
considerable distances, and this will
increase the cost. The experience Of
the Club thus far has demonstrated
that the price of so a plate which
it had hoped to maintain is too low.
Its suppers have been managed with
extreme care and frugality, but de,
spite that fact the price was not suffi
cient to cover the expense. 1t was de,
cided Tuesday evening that for the
future the club will meet but once a
month, and the price of the supper
increased to 75c until such time as
it's income shall justify the Club in
lowering the price.
1t is certain that all who attended
Tuesday evening felt repaid for BRAY
ing the storm, and we're also convinced
that it is worth while for the Club to
bring into the community month by
month speakers of the ability of the
Rev. Mr.. Beale of Milwaukee, who adj
dressed them that evening.
Rev. Mr.. Beale stressed the neces-
sity of working together if community
life is to be healthful and significant
AS bodily health and effectiveness are
dependent upon the working together
of each organism and each organ in
the body, so are the health and effect
iveness of family community and the
world dependent upon the ability of
men and women 60 reach out the
arm of cooperation and good will to
one another and grip hearts and hands
in the cause of the common good
Mr.. Beale knew how to tell a good
story, and also how to make impassion
ed appeal for the things that give to
life its strength, wholesomeness and
beauty.
