deserve the title, as they have traV-
eled 10000 miles aboard their
automobile and trailer since 1929.
The outfit measures 40 feet from
the front bumper of the car to
the rear bumper of the trailer.
Vale built it himself.
The trailer is full of modern con-
veniences and gadgets and con-
tains as many comforts as many
houses four times its size. An cleo
trio washing machine neatly hid
den under a sink with hot ane
cold running water, an electric
sewing machine concealed in a
closet beneath the hanging clothes
a hot water heater, a shower ar
ranged by opening trap door in
the ceiling where the faucets and
sprays are concealed and lifting a
trap in the floor to permit the
water to run out, an electric refri
gerator cupboards, drawers, shelves
gasoline range and even a work
room complete with a beWilder-
ing array of tools and equipment
are among the amazing features.
Four Children
Four Vale children live in the
trailer with their parents Two OF
the children were born aboard. The
mother teaches the seven-year- -old
her ABC's and 1,2,3s SO that she
will be able to attend school with
children her age when the family
decides to stop long enough.
In spite of the full sized bed
and double decker for the chill
dren, the trailer contains the stove
sink, breakfast table and chairs. a
radio, rocking chair. the usual
number of playtnings and toys.
Mrs. Vale even pieces quilts when
she isn't busy with the housework
OF sewing in her travelling home.
Vale said he built the trailer in
Springfield Mo. in 1929 and they
have been travelling constantly ever
since. They have travelled in every
state but Rhode Island and they
probably will get there later.
He insists he has used the same
automobile for the whole journey
The automobile, however, contains
parts of three different automo-
biles, he explained, and was of a

Termite Control
: Concern in Valley

= James Mackie, jr., this week an
nounced the opening of the Termi-
nix company at 846 Pine avenue,
Holtville, for termite control in I'M
perial Valley.
The company. after years of re-
search, Mackie said, developed a
chemical for wood preservation and
termite eradication. Continuous
study proved that the most effici-
ent method of treating wood for
dry wood termites is by impregna-
ton. Small holes are drilled into
the timbers and Terminix injected
into the wood at $50 pounds pres
sure, Mackie explained. The treat
ment is so positive, he declared,
that timbers so treated may be
guaranteed against reinfestation
