ploitation campaign on the new
"Jewett' Four Door Sedan, which
was opened this week by Bob Evans
of the Swastika Service Station,
Winslow dealers for Paige and
Jewett motor cars. With the new
machine, which was only received
this week, completely covered by
a huge tarpaulin, and displayed
on downtown streets, all the motor
ing public of WinslOw were prop
erly primed for the initial showing
of the new closed model, which was
held in Babbitt Brothers Wednes-
day and Thursday.
The new machine has been out
of the factory for some time, but
heavy demands have exceeded the
factory's output, so it was a month
after the national announcements
had been made that the cars were
available for Arizona dealers.
Evans procured his car from
Phoenix, driving it to Winslow by
way of Roosevelt Dam, Superior,
and Pine, the trip giving him a
first-hand opportunity to find out

He, Eats Half Dozen

NEW YORK, Jan. Hans
Steinke, the 270-pound Teu-
tonic tosser of the wrestling
ring, emerged from a restaurant
the other night after having
tucked away a frugal meal of
three porterhouse steaks and
fixings. He strolled a block
and then halted his companion
in front of delicatessen store.
"Ich haber hunger" he grunted,
as he pushed his way through
the door. His companion fol-
lowed and was amazed to hear
SteinIe order a half dozen eggs.
The .1elicatessen store man
a<Eked to put the eggs in a
Sener parcel. "Nein. nein,"
yaid Steinke, "hier ess Ich," and
with that he took the six eggs
in his hand, and one by one
popped them in his mouth,
crunching them down, shell and
all. "Ach! Das schmeckt gut,
growled the big German, as he
paid for the eggs, and left the.
store. It Was Just Hans playful
little way of having his des-
sert. After that he went out
for a walk to work up appetite
for midnight supper.

Keeping Golf Club
Out Front Quite
a Problem

With another year drawing to
a dose it is said that good
many golf clubs are finding
themselves doing their usual
stunt of running behind" One
of the explanations advanced is
that golf courses can accom-
modate only so many players
and that the money paid in by
it's members is not sufficient to
meet the ever-increasing de-
mands. A remedy suggested is
for clubs having nine holes to
increase to eighteen and for
those with eighteen to branch
out with thirty-six. There may
be a certain amount of truth in
the foregoing, although before
such steps can be taken there
are two more or less formidable
hazards to be surmounted. Land
has to be found, not so easy as
formerly. And then there is the
little matter of raising the
necessary funds.
