THE MASTEK
MOTORISTS CHOICE
Glenn II. Curtis could have
bought any car tn the world. He
would not hesitate a minute to
send abroad for the best car in the
foreign market If he thought he
could get a better car there than
the Buick. Or, he could have the
most expensive the American mar
ket affords If he desired.
Rut he passes them all for the
sturdy, owerful, deHiidable
llu Irk with the valve-ln-head mo
tor because he knows motor val
ues. He knows from long study
and experience that the valve-in-head
motor, as he puts It, "Is un
questionably siierior in efficiency."

Buffalo, N. Y.
Gentlemen-
In accordance with your re
quest for my opinion of the Six
Cylinder Buick which I have Just
purchased, will say that I was
first attracted by this machine
owing to the valve-in-head con
struction of the motor which con
struction has proven in aeronauti
cal practice to be unquestionably
superior in efllclency to any other
valve position.
I purchased the first car from
your agent. Mr. Naylor, of San
Diego, last fall. This car gave ex
cellent service and showed great
power and hill-climbing qualities.
I found a ready sale for it upon
coming East this spring and dis
posed of it to save the cost of
transportation.
Upon looking about for imme
diate requirements, I could find
nothing which presented as good
value as this Buick with the
valve-ln-head motor, and accord
ingly have purchased the one Just
delivered.
Yours very truly,
GLENN H. CURTISS.
DON'T
BE MISLED
The prospective purchaser of a
motor car should never lose track
of the fact that an automobile Is a
machine and that the real super
iorities one car itossesses over all
others are mechanical sujH-riori-tiex.
Rememler, that the Bnlck Is
mechanically right and at the
sAme time has all the appoint
ment found on other cars.
When the sturdy construction
of a car Is Miinted to you, make
sure whether this "sturdy con
struction" is guaranteed by drop
forged steel, as in the Buick, or
by rhenirer and weaker malleable
iron. Make sure that the car is
built light beneath the floor
Ixtards.

THREE MORE SHOPLIFTERS
Mght Marshal Klsh Make Arrests
After Fistic Encounters
Meets All Coiners
Night Marshal Klsh was a busy
man Tuesday. Early In the after
noon, while standing tn his yard, he
noticed a man walking down the
street toward the Burlington yards
with an excessively large bundle un
der his coat. Mr. Kish'a curiosity
was aroused, and he started out to
stop the man. As he did so the man
started to run, and as a natural re
sult. Officer Klsh "followed suit",
and there was "some" foot race In
progress at once. As they neared
the yards, the officer overtook the
fleeing man, and there was then a
mighty encounter, in which Mr. Klsh
came out victorious. When his man
had finally been quieted and had
been made to understand that he was
under arrest, the officer found that
the unusual bundle was a full bolt of
woolen dress goods. After the thief
had been landed tn jail, the bolt of
goods was taken to the stores for
identification, and it was found that
It had been taken from E. C. Mc
Cluer's stock, presumably while the
clerks were busy In the rear end of
the store. Thy had no Intimation
that the goods were missing until It
was returned. The shoplifter gave
the name of George Davis, and he
was presented with a sentence of
thirty days in Jail.
The same afternoon Officer Klsh
pulled off a similar stunt, but getting
two Instead of one. As In the first
case he saw them while In his yard.
A Herald reporter was talking to Mr.
Klsh at the time and saw him walk
across the street and accost the two
"gentlemen", and after a short but
seemingly effective talk he took them
by the arms and started for the po
lice statton. However, after they
had gone a short distance they decid
ed that the police station was no
place for them and "balked", and
the result was a two-a gainst -one
fight, In which the night marshal
came out "on top" but with a badly
bruised hand. These men had also
visited the McCluer stroe, each tak
ing a good hat. They were also giv
en thirty day jail sentences. They
gave the names of Ed Morris and
Thomas Elliott.
Mght Marshal Klsh Is fast gaining
a reputation as a pugilist to fight shy
of, and be takes them Just as they
come, whether he Is matched against
one or two.
This will make the warrants for
claims allowed Tuesday evening par
able next Monday morning. May 17.
Another ruling Is that all claim
jmust be filed not less than twenty
rour Hours before a meeting of tb
council, in order that they may be
properly listed and approved. Tha
monthly reports of the light and wa
ter departments will probably run
from the 7th of each month to tho
7th of the succeeding month, in or
der that the reports may be complete
and ready for presentation to the
council at the regular meetings held
on the second Tuesday of eaca
month.
Warrants at Light Office
Carter Calder, city clerk, advises
The Herald that city warrants In
payment of city claims will be paid
at the electric light office In the city
hall, beginning with this month. Un
der the laws governing a city of the
first class, warrants cannot be paid
until five days after being allowed.
