Petrie Brought Big Mack Through

Petrie Brought Big Mack Through
"Petrie brought the big Mack
through" That line is a familiar
line in the reports of Commander
H. r. Schaeffer of the Goodrich
Silver Fleet, in his account of par
ticularly tough going in bad de-
tours the fleet has encountered in
it's $4,000 mile tour The big Mock
truck is the baggage and supply
wagon of the trans-continental car
avan. Extra uniforms. hand bags
containing the little treasured SOU
venirs the boys have picked up en-
route, and many other articles and
supplies are all loaded in the big
truck that brings up the rear of the
long line of Is silvered cars.
Wilbur C. Petrie, star athlete at
two ago, has driven the big truck
Seattle. A route that trimmed the
coast; a loop into Florida and a
zigzag course along the gulf coast
with several side trips inland in
Guiding a total of 1,500 miles in
Texas. Arizona deserts and hot
New MEXICO SANDS were crossed IN
to California, then up the Pacific
coast to Seattle. From Seattle the
feet turns east. Petrie has always
brought the big truck through al
though he has had to almost dig it
out Of gumbo and other boggy de-
tours
In spite of the maximum of va
riety of roads that the big truck
has encountered the tires are in ex.
cellent shape and Petrie reports
that the big Mack will complete the
10000 mile tour on the same tires
that rolled it out of New York on
that cold morning, January %.

Teague Quotes Farm Relief Law To Answer Critics Who Say Board
 Functions Too Slowly On Program
Loans Restricted Under Act to Thoroughly Inyesti gated Organizations - Speaker Pleads for
 Patience in Stabilization Work.

Columbus. O., Oct, 15 R)-C. c. Teaguc, of the federal farm board. today quoted two paragraphs of the farm relief law as an answer to the criticism of some members of the senate agriculture committee that the board was functioning too slowly.
 While Investigating the fitness of the boards members to hold their positions, he said in an address prepared for delivery before q meeting of the United States Cham Der of Uommerce, members of the committee openly criticized the board for not having acted more promptly in the control of surpluscs by advancing money to stabilization loaned a larger portion of the funds at it's disposal.
 Loans Restricted
 The passengers of the farm act to which he pointed set forth that stabilization corporations receiving financial assistance from the govern ment shall exert every reasonable effort to avoid losses and to secure profits" and prohibited loans when the board might consider them likely to increase unduly the pro- duction Of a commodity in which there was already a surplus.
 To conform 10 these provisions, he continued, the board must make exhaustive inquiries relative to the responsibility of the stabilization

feminine sex would be wearing in that far day but abandoned the pro- ject as impractiCablc.
 Mr. Gibson, in case your memory needs jogging. is the artist who created that goddess of the maga- zine covers-the Gibson girl. She rul- ed the male hearts of the nation from 1901 until 1914. a cool, isOIat- ed charmer, who, so far as the world knew, possessed no such vul- gar appcndages as legs. True, she had "limbs,' but they were chastcly ambushed behind skirts that touch- ed the ground.
 The reign of the Gibson girl end cd when short haired, short skirt = cd creature, described in the yer nacular of the times as "a flapper," " tossed her corset into the ashcan, lit a cigarette, and called for three fingers of whisky with a shot of seltzer.
 ToreSees Return of Corset
 The news that Mir. Gibson brings tO tiiV NCAi tON4tl1 10 ll4etl tIlh NFliI- son girl is coming back, bringing her corset, her trailing skirts ard her pinched waiStline. Feminine knees are going to become a legend again. and If the new Gibson girl does dissi- pate to the extent of smoking d cigarette, she will puff with q regal air that the llapper never was able to achieve.
 But as MT. Gibson took up his pen to draw the 1929 model of the magazine goddess, he tossed out the opinion that Kipling was right about the Colonel's Lady and Judy O'Grady being the same under the skin. Only he would amend the verse to read that they are the same under the chemise.
 Women Never Change
 "Nomen never have changed at all" he said. Tt is true that from time to time they change their dress. But that only makes them more de- lishtful. An, would that l could live another two hundred years that l might see the costumes women in- vent for themselves. But regardless of what they wear, their bodies re- main the same-always they arc beautiful"
 With that he sketched female form divine, logged her in a long skirt, endowed her with lengthy hair and sighed because he would have to go down 10 his grave with out the consolation Of Knowing how the Gibson girl of 21g9 A. p. would look.

 Agriculture and business are tioS'IS Itldl'u, Ie S'titI dSlICui- ture being a 'basic industry the prosperity of the country is largely dependent upon the prosperity of agriculture. Agriculture is also de pendent upon the prosperity of busi- ness, for unless business is pros porous and a large portion of the labor of the country is employed at fair wages. agriculture cannot find a market at good prices for it's products.
