improvements in Performance,
Safety, Comfort. and Ap-
pearance Made

New Studebaker models represent a
far-reaching advance in automotive
progress. Having successfully pio-
ncered the way to new conception
of motoring thrill and thrift with it's
perfection of free wheeling, Stude-
baker has devoted it's entire research
and engineering facilities to the de-
velopment of additional improve
ments in performance, safety, COM
fort and appearance.
Sandin- Wilde Motors, Inc, handle
Studebakers in Bismarck.
Last year, President Albert Russell
Erskine of Studebaker forecast that
all cars would adopt free wheeling.
Events have shown how we'll founded

engineering innovation to a new

Unusual accomplishment on the
part of one woman has always won
the admiration of other women. There
is scarcely woman in the world who
does not admire-if perhaps secretly
our various feminine air pilots. mo-
tor-boat racers and big-game hunt
ers.
This admiration so universally ac-
copied Is proof that women have
craving for the thrill that goes with
the spectacular.
The automobile provides the means
of appeasing this yearning and it is
the only means within the reach of
every woman.
Not SO many years ago 1t was con-
sidered spectacular to see a woman

strength to start. to steer. to stop,
and in fact, even to get into the ton
neau.
But that day is past. Today's mo-
tor car is ideal for the ladies.
1t is not idle talk to say that more
than IS per cent of automobile pur-
chases are swayed by the women.
Neither is it idle talk to say that more
than IS per cent of the fair sex have
been influenced by the incorporation
of three factors in an automobile.
These factors are: "a Freedom from

ling: CD Simplicity of engineering
design with the resulting excellent
performance: CD Safety in the con-
struction and operation of the car.
1t is with these three factors in
mind that the new Floating Power
Plymouth was designed. Floating
Power itself has direct appeal to
women because it means that smooth

Another new feature of particular

An important new contribution to
comfort is automatic ride control

USING MORE GAS

Gasoline consumption in As states
and the District Of Columbia for Au-
gust. 1881. was 1.423.243.OOO gallons,
as compared with 1.350,0000 900 gallons
during August, 1880.
The Bismarck tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, N.D.) 1916-current, 1932-03-26

With the probability of increased
auto and gasoline taxes. it IS inter-
esting to note just how much Of the
tax burden automobile drivers al
ready bear. A recent report Of the
census bureau says autoists In 1880
paid 81 per cent Of the total revenues
Of the country, an increase Of l43
per cent since 1925. The above chart
shows the climb Of the combined reg
istration fees and gasoline tax
amounts since 1926.

Birds Eat Hundreds of Insects Daily

THE 1ckleness among allied nations and their
shifting from side TO another IN
different wars has a counterpart in the course
conducted by some OF mans allies in the war
on insect pests. The birds. for instance, some
times do tremendous damage to crops through
the damage to young shoots first coming
through the ground and to the entire crop
through the eating Of seed. Fruit trees and
berry bushes also suffer from the depredations
Of birds.
In spite Of the damage they do, however the
birds a usual thing are to be found on the
side Of man when 1t comes to the war with
insects. It has been noted by experts study
ing the insect problem that any unusual out
break of pests invariably finds the birds flock

occurred Every insect seems to have an over
whelming number Of enemies among the birds.
The gypsy moth. for instance, is eaten by 46
different types Of birds. The cotton bol weevn
is attacked by 66 the army worm by 4s, the
leaf hoppers by ITS, the potato beetle by "a and
the ~wireworm by 2o5. -,.-a - 80. .~l Tt,'
The birds, when they feed on the insects
really set themselves down to serious eating.
One kiIldeer, shot and examined for research
purposes had 383 alfalfa weevils IN It's
stomach while a blackbird was found to have
442. Such a capacity for insects makes the
birds welcome allies when the insect OUT
breaks are on no matter how much they may
be opposed to the best interests Of man when
they are carrying on their own depredating
activities

YOURSELF
NECKs--

RECLAIMED NECKs--.

and swing like q pendulum in
smaller and smaller arcs until 1t
comes to rest.
Only about one woman in thou
sand has this perfectly relaxed
neck. Dancers know how to DO It..
Few others do.
one Of the best ways to relax
your neck Is to lie prone upon the
floor and work out your spine BY
wriggling 1t along the floor, this
way and that, the way a cat does.
Then straighten It all out. by push
ing yourself up out Of your. hips.
Next do the exercise that throws
your feet up over your head to
touch the floor.
These exercises relax the whole
spine. It Is impossible to relax
the top Of the spine without at
fecting the whole spine.
In addition to this, massage your
neck muscles well. Get someone
else to do It, II you have influence
or money! That's the easiest way
to start.

to observe how each member Of

couldn't understand why the baby
was so slow in coming. Every
day he would ask his mother,
Twill he come today" But his
mother explained that they must
all be patient and wait until the
baby was big enough and strong
enough to join his new family. So
now Robert is patiently making a
whole new scrap-book just for
Elizabeth-John. He says all bah
les ought to nave toys of their
own to greet them so they won't
feel lonesome.
Claire's chief job is to keep
Robert amused and safe SO that
mother need not worry about him,
and nobly she does it. Besides that
she does q great deal of running
UP and down stairs on necessary
errands to save mothers steps.
She and Robert escort mother on
the daily trip to the stores, and
bring back the package on Ro-
bert's wagon so that mother need
not carry heavy bundles.
Mary and Bill, Of course. are at
school most of the day, but they
do what they can. For one thing,
they've decided to get UP promptly
