Model A OaUners Praise
Performance

After 25,922 miles of driving,
Model A Tudor sedan, Motor No.
1,241, has been given its first me-
chanical repair by it's owners,
Bass and Company, Of Hopkins
vile, Kentucky. To date, the cost
of operation has been 2.7 cents
mile, including depreciation, gas,
oil, tires, washing, greasing, pune
lures, storage and all other items
charged to the car.
The nearest record to that made
by the Model A was 4.6 cents
mile made by a fOur.cylinder car
of another make also owned by this
company. All the cars in the COM
pany's fleet are now being replaced
with Model AS.

run the car $4,000 miles over the
worst roads i'm the state and i'm all
kinds of weather. Figuring gas,
oil, repairs, storage, accessories,
tires-in fact all operation costs,
together with depreciation to that
date-he found that his transpOrta-
ton had cost him little over
three cents a mile. That is the
lowest figure his department has
ever been able to obtain i'm the.
operation of its motor cars.

Potato Growers Hurt
by Edict of Fashion

The countryman who innocently
turned in fire alarm when trying to
mail letter did not produce more
unexpected result than those fashion
leaders who persuaded women that to
be stylish and attractive they must
be slender, svelte, willowy or what.
you-may-call-it. The potato market
was practically ruined as a result.
Potato growers have suffered almost
as much as the hairpinmakers before
them. The idea is very widespread
that potatoes are fattening, hence
ladies tending toward rotundity es-
chew them-eschew them with the &C.
cent on the first syllable.
1t is sad thing. The poor dears
would enjoy nothing more than
plate Of hot, crisp fried, baked,
mashed, rissole, saute or plain boiled
potatoes. A longing for them wells
up from their innermost being! And
how they would "just adore reek.
ing potato salad-on days Of no com.
pany. Yet Dame Fashions voice is
imperious, and both the ladies and the
potato growers suffer. It is to be
hoped that the Dame will change her
mind again soon and allow us to see
more attractive curves, in both women
and potatoes.-Exchange.

The Rose

The rose is said to have originated
in Persia. 1t was used as medicine
and as food by the ancients, and
the Chinese still serve rose fritters
at their New Year feast. By the
Romans this flower was regarded as
the symbol Of silence as we'll as Of
love, and its name is a variation of
the word Eros, the name of the god
of love. In Rome 1t was used as an
emblem Of victory, of triumphant love
and of pride and pomp.
By long association 1t was regarded
as pagan, and after the founding of
Christianity 1t was, therefore, in dis
grace. Its beauty, however, was IRE
sistible, and 1t soon became the flower
Of Christian martyrdom and the SYM
Dol of divine love, being used in So
cred paintings along with the lily.
Martin Luther took rose for his
official seal, and 1t is glorified in the
writings of Dante. Today 1t stands
for beauty throughout the world.

A German scientist has recently en-.
deavored to prove that meteors are a
relatively recent introduction into our
system. He asserts that no meteorites
have ever been discovered among our
coal deposits, or found embedded In
our rocks. He says that they evil
IDENTIFY did not exist at the period OF
the Stone age. or traces would have
been found. His conclusion is that
meteors entered our parts of space
some 10000 years ago, and may have
been due to the disintegration of
small star.
This theory has apparently little to
support it. If meteors did not exist 1t
is hard to see how comets could exist.
Some of the latter revolve in periods
of 10000 years, some 100000 years,
and others of several millions Of
years. They and their coexisting
meteorites have probably been revolv.
ing within the boundaries of our solar
system as long, or nearly as long, as
