People are surprised to learn that this beautiful
and sturdy car now sells for 1895.
They have heard so much about it's exceptional
value that they are under the impression it sells
for a higher price.
Moreover, the Sedan possesses all the roominess
and character of closed cars that call for a much
greater investment.
1t is substantial in appearance because it is sub
stantiar in fact. And serves its owners far beyond
the period usually expected of a car at any price.
The body is all steel-safe, sturdy, freproof, and
sTartly finished below the belt line in coolie
blue lacquer, with cartouche yellow stripe
upper body in black lacquer-shields and tenders
in black, oven-baked enamel.
Blue Spanish genuine leather upholstery, rernov-
able rear seat-back, and optional wood or steel
wheels are included among many other features
that commend themselves f~orcefully to the buyer.
Many who expected to buy a cheaper car, now
find that Dodge Brothers product is well within
their means. Many who had expected to buy
something more expensive, now find everything
they could possibly desire in these smart and
dependable vehicles.

PRISON SHEETS

Nearly 300 inmates of Kansas state prison
Lansing wanted sheets their hunks. When a mod
crate disturbance failed to bring the boon demanded,
they shut themselves in the mine where they work,
along with their guards, refusing let anybody in or
out until the sheets were promised.
After 36 hours in the mine, they gave up and
willing to come out and sleep sheetless hunks
usual.
Such mutinies not to be encouraged And
sheets for convcts may be bit eXtreme-a part of
the cOddmg alleged to be all too frequent in this
tolerant land. Yet there is another side to it.
By all accounts, penitentiary hunks, at best
none too clean or comfortable. Time when
convict would have expected anything better. But
when convicts do insist sheets, that may an in
dcation OF civilized possibilities unsupported among
the prison population.
Sheets, large, clean and frequently changed might
have wholesome effect the prisoners, aside from
giving them better sleep. The moral influence of de-
bed has been adequately sung. 1t might be
worth trying, if prison authorities interested in the
reformatve side of prison life.

LUNCHEON CLUBS

Donation by the El Centric Lions Club of funds
sufficient to enable the Salvation Army camp
to be continued for few weeks longer, is in line with
the excellent spirit shown by Ell Centro service clubs
in the past
The action of the club is worthy of commendation,
especially because knowledge of the donation not
made public by the donors
Luncheon clubs often the objects of satire and
sarcastic by many modern writers, and being
composed Of humans they like any organization,
occasionally make mistakes.
In the main however the luncheon club is credit
to its community All of them have for their object the
betterment of community ideals and they lend valued
assistance in CARRYING worth while projects
It is only when they fail to carry out the purposes
for which they are founded that they are deserving Of
the ridicule that may be directed toward them.
Such instances the donation to the Salvation
Army prove that FL Centros luncheon clubs be
accused of being "a bunch o. songsingng, self-sats
fled back-Slappers.''
While they continue to show this interest in COM
