Price

Comparison of delivered prices re-
veals Chevrolet's value supremacy.
Delivered prices are f. o. b. prices
plus charges for handling, financing,
etc. The financing charges of Gem
eral Motors Acceptance Corporation
are the lowest available. Handling
charges are in proportion. Thus,
Chevrolet delivered prices are even
more amazing than the f.o b. prices.

-Lauds G.N.D.A.

Valley City. Sept. 10.-If North
Dakota land owners who have inn
proved farms for sale will make a
sustained effort to interest buyers
among tenant farmers in Iowa by
personal contact, they casl bring new
settlers to North Dakota, in the Opin-
ion of Frank w. Choate Glcnwood,
Ia, who is spending few days in
Valley City while threshing is being
completed on half section he owns
at Cuba in Barnes county. Mr..
Choate is county auditor Of Mills
county, which is located in the south
western part of Iowa.
"The attitude Of Iowa people to-
ward North Dakota has changed q
great deal in the past two or three
years." Mr.. Choate told Valley City
men with whom he visited. =! be-
lieve the advertising and publicity
work Of the Greater North Dakota
association is largely responsible for
this.
There are many young farmers,
mostly tenants, who have their
equipment and some money and they
are keenly interested in North Da-
kota. Everyone seems to concede
that North Dakota is q great farm
ing state and about the only COM
plant l hear is the fear on the part
Of some that Your winters are too
severe. / am sure, however, that
with the Greater North Dakota asso-
citation continuing its advertising
campaign this objection will soon be
overc ONE.
Young Farmery Interested

nearly tells the story as to why
young Iowa farmers are interested

Der Of North Dakota farms and

seeking personal contact with young
tenant farmers in Iowa"
Mr.. Choate said that conditions In
Iowa were improving but that the
improvement Is coming very slowly.
He attributed the more speedy re-
coverv Of North Dakota to the low
rrice of North Dakota farm lands.
@'If were . younger man," Mr.
Choate declared. n would move to

New York. Sept. 1O.-(P)-An in
tensified storm of protest against
transoceanic flying left in its wake
TODAY the virtual abandonment OF Mt
least two more projected overseas
hops, and prospects Of presidential
investigation to make such adven-
lures safer.
The navy department openly dis
played it's opposition to transOceanic
flights at this time by withdrawing
the leave of two officers planning
a flight. President Coolidge voiced
concern over the recent disasters and
revealed he would have oceanic fly
ing Investigated; two cities withdrew
$4,000 prizes for transatlantic VIC
tors, and friends and relatives OF three
men planning long over-water hops
appealed to the flyers, to abandon
their intentions.
Search IL Fruitless

on for the American monoplane Old
Glory and the Canadian mOnoplane

Atlantic.
Abandonment of the projected
Windsor to Windsor flight Of the
Canadian plane Royal Windsor and
the Paris flight of Captain Rene
Fonck appeared almost certainty
today.
Captain Fonck in New York said
his projected flight to Paris prob
ably would be abandoned for this
year, after the navy department re-.
voked the leaves of absence granted
Lieutenant Lawrence Curtin and
Ensign Stephen v. Edwards, navi-
gator and radio operator, respectively,
on the proposed jump.
Although the navy department can
not officially prevent the FOnck
flight, the French ace said he would
cancel his plans for the present "if
there is any request or intimatiOn
from the United States government
that it would rather not have me
make the flight"
Request Denied

route mapped out by William 5.

Journey from the Orient across the
Pacific on their round the world

After lunch, the Pope returns to his

About o'clock. His Holiness permits

ton of the day. It is the hour of the
drive lin the Vatican gardens, which
Plus XI takes without fail every day.
On week days, the papal carriage,
lined inside with white satin and
drawn by two superb horses, is used.
On Sundays and holidays, the Pope
uses the closed automobile presented
him by a firm of Italian motor car
manufacturers.
The Pope is accompanied on his daily
drive in the Vatican gardens by pri-
vate chamberlain.
The Vatican gardens are only few
acres in extent. There are beautiful
avenues and thick clumps of trees, in
tersperSed with statues and beds of
flowers. In the less cultivated parts
one has the feeling of being really in
the country This is the sylvan part
of the little kingdom.
The entry int othe Vatican gardens
used by the Pope is through a tun-
mel built by the order of Plus x, who
was anxious that the papal carriage
should not pass, even for a few yards,
over territory not entirely recognized
h1y ia la nf xxJhi oh fn6 HA
Popes temporal realm.
Plus XI's usual custom is to stop
the carriage when 1t arrives at the
open space known as "the Square of
Our Lady of Lourdes," where there
is rather inartistic copy of the ia.
nous French grotto. Here the Pope
gets out of his carriage and proceeds
alone to the shrine, remaining on his
knees in prayer for a few minutes.
When Plus rises from his medita-
tons, he pays his daily visit to his
two pets, a handsome green parrot
and an eagle. These birds are kept in
cages in one of the avenues leading
from the shrine. The Popes special
favorite is his parrot, most intelli-
gent bird, which Plus has personally
taught to speak.
After giving a titbit each to the
parrot and the eagle, the Pope takes
solitary walk in one of the avenues.
In Winter, he naturally chooses
sunny one, while in Summer he strolls
alone under the shade of the large
trees.
Standing on little eminence in the
gardens, the Pope can see in Winter
the snow-capped spurs Of the Apen
mines beyond Tivoll and it may be
imagined that his thoughts turn at
such moments to the days when he
was an ardent Alpinist.
He followed with the greatest in
