Just in time comes this, from v. O..
Wallingford, the Phoenix architect
artist poet. Maybe the poor girl
should also have used Odoro and Tiz.
'Friends:
"Here is the latest outrage from the
pen and fancy of your poet laureate,
and ardent admirer:
ABOUT the saddest thing / know,
Is pretty girl, whose cup of woe
Is just about to overflow
But dearest friends won't tell her so--
Tis halitosis, don't you know.
But sadder still, than that, methinks,
Is, after she has taken drinks
OF Listerine, and colored inks,
Until her breath just fairly ,glows
With faint sweet odors like a rose,
And finds that then, nobody knows
A bit -of difference; and still she isn't
popular"
81 overlooked sending you and Fred
New Years card, or expressing my
good wishes, but / am happy to take
this opportunity to wish you both
happy and successful one; and that
you both get more than you deserve,
and neither of you get justice unless
it's tempered with mercy.
Faithfully yours,
The many friends of "Little Brin-
de-" famed as the best nouser IN
Flagstaff, thought she was dead or
stolen when she disappeared last July
leaving two unweaned kittens.
But Little Brindle is back. Two
weeks ago yesterday she walked into
town from the Vest. Frank Bennett
was the first ta see her. She mewed
"howdy," paused to rub against
Franks pants-leg, then meandered up
to her old mousing grounds on Rail
road avenue. She asked in at the
Bon Ton grocery and market jumped
IN into the shelves and in no time at
all had caught two mice.
Little Brindle is the daughter-ny
which marriage is uncertair-of Big
Brindle. She was born in the hay at
Frank Benefits. Little Brindle early
began to work for her own living and
her base of operations was the Chet
Black grocery. But she operated all
along Railroad avenue, so Industrious
|ly that the Chinese complained they
couldn't get enough mice for their
chop suey.
Little Brindle isn't beauty, but
she's attractive with her smutty face
and conglomerate coloring. She re-
ceived a royal welcome when she re-
turned.
Harlow Yaeger was asked by Ed

BUICK MAKING !.
BETTER CARS,
SAYS JACKSON

Buick engineers in the Bucks for
1927 have eliminated one of the mos'
annoying of closed car conditions
says George e. Jackson of the South
ern Arizona Auto company.
The Buick vacuum ventilator which
prevents crankcase dilution and makes
a change of oil necessary only foul
times a year, serves another impor-
tant function which will be appre-
ciated by drivers Of closed cars.
The ventilator carries off all fumes
from the engine and eXpells rner
through the ejector tube underneath
the car, eliminating the nuisance anu
danger to health which is caused by
these fumes getting inside closed
body.
Breather tubes are usually en-
ployed to carry off these fumes. ThS
absence of sufficient draught anc
the location of the breathers often
allows the passenger compartment to
become filled with unpleasant, and
often dangerous gases.
The Buick vacuum ventilator sucks
all fumes out of the crankcase with
a draught created by the fan, and
expells them at the front end, away
from the body and we'll below the
frame. There is no possibility OF
these fumes entering the. body Of the

The dashing waves of the automo~

down. A few years ago motor build

in their product each season, with the

as automobiles gained greater de.

spoke more innovations when intro

STUDEBAKER HAS
BEEN SETTING
MANY RECORDS

Seventy-three years ago this month,
| John Mohler Studebaker reined up his
horses before group of Californians,
rose from the seat of his covered
wagon" and announced to the curious
throng which had gathered to meet
him, that he had just completed the
trip from Indiana in five months.
Eyebrows were lifted in surprise and
the crowd pressed closer to inspecs
more carefully the vehicle which had
stood up under the gruelling punish
ment of such a trip in such short
time.
Although history does not record
the details of the conversation of the
moment, it is probable that the driver
explained his feat by, that's nothing
for a Studebaker.''
On June II. 1925, Alb Jenkins, Sal'
Lake City business man, stepped on
the brakes of his Studebaker "Sher-
iff' and came to stop before q
wildly cheering crowd at the Western
Union office in San Francisco.
Eighty-six hours and 20 minutes
from New York to San francisco.
More than sixgh hours clipped from thu
time of the fastest transcontinental
train. jenkins slid out from pehinc
| the wheel, smiled and remarked, that
is nothing-for Studebaker.'
And just as the miners of the STIR.
ring days of 1'49 pressed forward tc
inspect and examine the Studebaker
prairie schooner in 1853, so did the
crowd of 1926 Californians mill around
the modern EXAMPLE of Studebaker's
contribution to transportation. Seventy
years evolution in transportation
brings vast changes to modes or
dies.
Although separated by more than
20 years of time and almost incon-
ceivable variance in speed, the two
trips across the continent have mucn
in common. John MohIer Studebakei
braved the long months of travel over
unknown territory, rislled the attac *
Eof Indians and plunged his staunch
wagon into fords over unpridged
rivers and over almost impossible
mountains. Alb Jenkins drove through
weather conditions characterized most
of the distance as the worst in two
generations by weather bureau Off
cia1s. He was forced to travel prac-
! tically the entire distance between
New York and Cheyenne in a heavy
downpour of rain. In some places,
roads became literally sea of mud.
But jenkins and his Studebaker forged
constantly ahead toward the goal OF
their achievement

Huntington's Chorea.

Such is the name of one of the
strangest maladies known to the hu-
man race. It's victims all belong to
one family-though they do not all
bear the same surname, OF course. a
family having it's origin in the marsh
lands of eastern England has the mis-
fortune to be subject to a sort OF
palsy. 1t is not the palsy of old age,
but somthing far more arbitrary. 1t
manifests itself at any age. The more
it's sufferers try to control the spasms
of shaking that set in the more they
shake. The disease is incurable. 1t
has been found, after much research,
that every one having it is in some
way descended from the original
family that displayed it, no matter
how lost the relationship in marriages
and changing names.
Now, what do you know about that?

Do YOU think minister should
nres,,me to direct the affairs or con
duct of his congregation?
Is he not the paid servant OF the
congregation and under obligation TO
them to regard their wishes and
opinions in such matters as schemes
for raising church money and inno.
cent pleasures which their liberty or
conscience will allow?
If he cannot approve OF Such IN
nocent things should he not seek
living somewhere else? :,
Answer-May I insist, once for all
that the pastor of any CHRISTIAN
church is no mans servant, Dut tne
servant of Jesus Christ and of his
fellow men for the sake or CHRIST.
The first servitude is detrimental W
ministerial manhood. the second Is IT'S
height of attainment. The nlreu
man" of trustees and deacons Whoh
Won describe does not exist IN
truly Christian economy. The lact
that he exists at all is disgrace 10
ALI responsible for his humiliation.
Very few Protestant clergymen AT
tempt to dictate to their congresa-
tions. and those who do. find that
example and persuasion are the bet.
ter weaDons. 1t is symptomatlc OF
ol1r time that whereas half century
ago the danger line for the minister
ran i'm the realm of doctrine, it now
runs in that of recreation ana
finance.
The quantity and quality of what
YOU call innocent pleasures which
liberty of conscience allows some
times split spiritual communion
which is Indifferent about the preach
er's creed so long as he processes
bare belief in Deity. This condition
is neither healthy nor permanent.
The well advised pastor will not
interfere with the projects of his
flock unless these seriously trespass
upon the reverence and dignity due
to religion and its institutions.
During 35 years of my ministry. !
have questioned the prOpriety of the
entertainments given by my people
but twice, and in one instance | was
wrong. But some members of
churches lack the spiritual sensibtlity
which halloWS the house of God. and
some ministers intervene when in
tervention is foolish and futile.
