Octave, Ariz.
June 26, 1926.

June 26, 1926.
Miner:
am enclosing my two dol
lars to try again to do my
"mite," and hope always for a
better paper, moro news Of the
"OId Timers" The mines, the
prospects and all that an old
timer and old risidenter would
feel interested in.
You speak of map of the
a road headed for Round
mountain, between Wickenburg
and Octave. Get Hammond, Bill
Genung and Mr.. Sans, who are
interested in Blue Bird, two
miles from Octave with George
Myers to get active for the
connecting road to Wickenburg
instead of via Congress juno
ton. Thus Wickenburg with
surrounding country. Octave is
ten miles due north of Wicken-
burg. A good company is now
doing some heavy prospecting
on mesa below Octave for pIac-
er, they have been working on
good road from here would get
more patronage.
There was, not long ago, an
auto road to Round mountain
from Wickenburg and now if
the two are connected on west
side of Round mountain out of
the wash as the old stage road
went down the wash, would
not be far nor expensive work.
Probably is work for the Wick
enburg people to look it over
and perhaps mining interests
cooperate.
Very respectfully,
C. L. HosFoRD.
Arizona state miner., 1926-08-07
WE'VE GOT THE BOOK WITH
THE ANSWERS IN
AN OPEN LETTER
IN THE OPEN FORUM

To the mining men:
This is your paper and your let
ters to the public will be printed in
this space. The Miner, issued once
week, whl keep you posted on
what is going on in the district along
the Hassayampa NOW Keep US
posted, too.
Two things we would suggest:
Don't miss a sale of your property
for sentimental reasons; and don't
tell us anything you don't want to
see in print.
You may recall that Charley Taylor
of Redtop fame turned down a sale
and refused $450,O0O because his dog
had been insulted by the capitalist
crowd, someone having shut the door
in the dogs face. And Al Myers of
Goldfield, somewhere in the region
of the Old Mohawk refused $4,000
of velvet because it was rendered
in the form of a check. It's all right
to make them tote out the gold but
it's not always necessary to tote in
the specie.
If you kick, kick early.
Above all, keep the Miner posted
on what you happen to know has
taken place. We print news, not pro-
phecies. And the world is waiting to
hear the news Of this district. What
is an old story to you, is news,
good news, for the outside world.

MRS. ABBOTTS
PUPILS GIVE A
FINAL RECITAL

Mrs. A. c. Abbott, instructor in the
field of music in this city for the
past three years, presented nearly 80
of her pupils in farewell recitals before
enthusiastic audiences Sunday after
noon and Monday evening.
Mrs. Abbott is leaving in about two
weeks for Yuma, to which point her
husband has been transferred by the
Southern Pacific Railroad company.
He has been in that city now fol
about a monthy
The juvenile group of players who
have beer studying under Mrs. Abbott

and pleased q large and responsive
group of friends with their excellent
work. Last night at the M. j. Andre.
son Piano companay store, the junior
section of her classes offered their
program and again the youthful piano
and violin players scored triumphantly
both for Mrs. Abbott and for them
selves.
Those who attended the two recitals
were greatly pleased with the ability
and technique displayed by the chill.
dren, who showed the gratifying re.
suits Of fine instruction.
At the Sunday afternoon recital,
Harriet Willoughby assisted by giving
clever reading, as did Lucille Hay
more, former pupil of Miss Erma Dali
tor, who offered a graceful interpre-
tative. dance entitled the Spring
Song" Both the recitals Were enjoyed
by the exceptionally appreciative au-
diences and all the pupils exhibited
that they have gained good foun-
dation in the art of music.
Mrs. Abbott is deserving of much
praise for her excellent work along
this line while in Douglas, and she
will be greatly missed both il. the
realm of musical instruction and on
the various programs whicn the
Douglas Music club presents through
out the year.

DODGE BROTHERS
|ENLACE OUTPUT
TO MEET SALES

With record of IL highly success
full years behind them, Dodge Brothers
! Inc, are apparently determined to
make 1926 outdo all their previous
sales achievements, says William AL
bertsA Of the Staffords Alberts Anto
company.
The pace set by the manufacturer
during the first quarter and so faI
in April is discussed quite generally
as one of the fine achievements >of the
industry. From the seventh day of
January, when prices were reduced,
there has been a constant acceleration
iE demand for Dodge Brothers motor
cars and Grahaml Brothers trucks
Graham Brothers is a division of
Dodge Brothers, Inc.-with the re-
suit that each of the first three
months successively established new
record.
/ Our chief concern now is produc-
tion," said e. G. Wilmer president of
Dodge Brothers, Inc. I'VE invested
| $10,00O,O0O in new buildings and equip
ment with the hope that for once, at
least, Dodge Brothers dealers would
be given all the cars they needed. In
/ 1925 it was estimated conservatively
that they could have delivered $4,000
more cars had they been available.
Dealers from all parts of the coun-
try are wiring for more cars. Our
records show that there were on April
"a in the hands sof dealers in the Unit
ed States 26,921 new Dodge Brothers
motor cars and Graham Brothers
trucks against which these dealers
| held 1865 signed, untitled orders.
spread the difference, 1858, over an
organization of $500 dealers with their
numerous selling connections and you
begin to realize how small the stock
really is.
"As a matter of fact, deliveries right
now are exceeding production. Dur
na the week ending April "a, for ex.
ample, our total shipments to dealers
| in the United States and Canada were
| S,264 and our deliveries 1855. We had
expected to add materially to our
stocks for several weeks yet before
deliveries were made from surplus.
"Every year heretofore thousands of
persons who wanted Dodge Brothers
cars have been compelled to take a
second choice car, with the result that
| other companies have thrived on our
overflow. This year, with all our de-
termination to cut these second
fchoices to the absolute minimum, his
tory seems destiend to repeat itself,
although I am happy to say, to much
smaller extent than ever before.
