A Letter From Sterling P. Amiek.
Post Field, Fort Sill, Oi:la.
May 7, 1JHS.
Dear Lauren and Mabel:
I received the box cf candv you
sent me, also letter and should have
written sooner, but neglected it. We
came here week ago last Saturday.
We are only 100 miles from Okla
homa City. We are quarantined for
two weeks, but our two weeks will be
up this coming Saturday. No one is
sick but it is done whenever troops
are moved from one camp to anoth
er as a preventive of disease. We
will start training with ballorris aa
soon as we are out of quarantine.
A balloon broke away the other day
with two officers in it, but they land
ed safely about five miles from horc.
They1 sure have lots of aeroplanes
here and they are the swiftest ci any
I have saw yet and I haVe seen hund
reds of them. They have 12 hang
ars here for aeroplanes and 4, hang
ars for balloons. As you under
stand hangars are sheds. They have
a large infantry and artillery camp
here. The work of the balloon com
pany is to inform the artillery where
their shells hit. Also to watch move
ments of troops both friend an 1 foe.
The balloon is anchored by a long
cable and they can send it r:ny
height they desire. We will be
about 5 miles back' of the tremMio?.
How are all the kids, would sure like
to see all of you. Will clore.

If
Yon Want A Snper-Si
Get It -Now
There Is f3o Certainty How Long
Prompt Delivery Can Be Made
You have read in the newspapers how, automobile
production has been reduced. And you know how
further curtailment is planned for the future.
Increased uses for cars, because of reduced rail
road facilities and other needs, keep up a demand that
it will not be possible to fulfill much longer. Prices of
some cars have already been advanced for the second
time within the past six months.'
It is likely that buyers will soon be offering pre
miums for prompt delivery of Super-Sixes.
This is the situation of the Super-Six.
For two years it has been the most popular line car.
More than 50,000 have been sold.
No dealer has been able to accumulate stock during the past
winter and the present demand exceeds the output.
Hundreds of cars are being driven overland to points of sale
because freight is so uncertain and buyers want prompt delivery.
Today we can let you drive away in tcertain models. We might
not be so fortunate tomorrow.
We have been told our allotment for the coming months is to
be much less than we had planned for.
It is needless to tell you anything about Super-Six reliability.
That quality is an accepted fact with all motorists.
There are ten different model types There
is one standard of reliability. v If you get a
Super-Six it will serve ycu well throughout
the period now before us, in which it may
be impossible to get good new, reliable cars
