FORD
TO BE SHOWN

One of the big hits at the Chi
cago Century of Progress, the HUI
man Ford, will be on display in Ell
Centre next week according to an
announcement by Edgar Bros. Co.,
valley Ford dealer.
w. o. Hendriks stated that this
modern marvel in transportation
actually thinks, talks, acts. and op-
crates, just as if it had a human
mind. At the command OF Ray
Parker, the Human Ford will start,
stop. or reverse as directed. In ad-
dition, the car will answer ques-
tions, describe articles of clothing,
and joke with Parker. Spectators are
invited to inspect the car to be sure
there is no person in 1t.
The car is said to be operated by
photo-electric cells which appar-
entity respond to such stimuli as
voice vibrations and motions. Such
mystifying illusion results from
the driverless cars actions that the
Human Ford actually leaves the
impression that it is human For
instance, the voice of the car Will
name the brand of cigarette a spec
tator is smoking.
This amazing Human Ford Will
be demonstrated several times daily
in Ell Centro next Monday, Tuesday
and Wednesday.

was signed against him later, he
was tried and convicted by a jury
June 7 the same year, according
to the complaint. StenSrud is ac-
cused of cutting off portion of a
coffin containing the body of j.
L. BleVinS' minor son in order to
make it fit the grave prepared
under his supervision. He was tried
and found guilty of this act July
IL, 1885. April l, 1887, Stensrud is
accused of destroying a tombstone
on a lot belonging to the Gates
family, declaring they had no title
to the land.
He sold burial lots in roads and
alleyways; resold and transferred
lots when others already had pur-
ported title to them; interfered
with persons who wished to visit,
decorate or erect monuments at
graves of relatives and threatened
bodily injury to those who ignored
his orders, it is alleged.
The complaint signed by Dis
trict Attorney Elmer Heald lists
the names of 48 signers of a petit
ton requesting court intervention
and in addition lists John Does l
to 1000. Damage to the cemetery
and loss to the owners OF lots and
grave sites have resulted and will
continue to result from the trou-
BILE between the Stensruds, accord
ing to the complaint.
Stensrud's threats to operate the
cemetery at a loss SO it would not
pay expense of upkeep and become
bankrupt, according to the COM
plant, were pointed out as part OF
Mrs. Stensrud's legal allegations.
No attempts to maintain a per-
petual care fund or operate a ceme-
terry association with elective Of
ficers, it is alleged, ever were made
by the owners even though indivi-
duals purchased lots under that
supposition.
Legal entanglements of the
Stensruds resulted in neglect OF
the cemetery, Heald charged, and
Stensrud is alleged to have squan-
dered its funds.

MUSIC IN AN ART MUSEUM.

Surely in this great court where SOUL
ptured planes
Lend their enrichment to the stucco
wall,
Where broad treads lead the eve to
Towering lanes
Of fresco and of canvas, and each hall
Beckons in tapestried perspective
here
Shall sound unfold to bloom in native
air.
Rise tall in stalk, bud forth in point
ing spear
And blossom fully, splendidly aware.
Not here shall music make a lonely
rune,
But marry to myriad chords their
Myriad mates;
Titan re-echoed in the rich bassom.
Flute notes arising to the visible
gates
Of Corots color; from viops bow
Strains lossened first by Greek
Domenico.

where malnutrition (poor. nour-

Blueberries, of the ripest, bluest kind!
