Studebakcr "Six." C. A.
lovctand arrived In the out-
fools. Pa., ho found a chanr
plcni71B;o bait game In lively prog
ress.
Mr Lcffmon and tho members ot his
party votcft unanimously on a stop at tho
bail yard. They rolted In through tho
carrlnpo Rate, wero assigned parkins
spaco near th foul lino back ot third
base, and settled down to await de
velopments.
ni(
Tho Dubois catclier grabbed blindly to
his right for a third, strlko on an oppos
ing batsman; the ball passed on his left.
The second man up rolled a grounder
toward the shortstop: the ball eluded his
hands and smote him on his manly
chest.
The next batsman lifted a high foul.
Tho third baseman went after It In a
groping way, over-ran it and narrowly
escaped death when tho ball hit him a.
glancing blow on tho head.
While first aid was being administered,
Mr. Lemmon noted that the players of
both teams were in an animated confer
ence and that they were frequently
pointing toward him and his car.
The umpire later added his presence to
the conference. Then tho entlro coterie
li'ovrd toward Mr. Liemmon'o position.
Whllo he and hla party looked on In a
puzzled way, the umplro and players
n.oved about the car and postured In
various positions.
"That's what's doing It," declared tho
arbitrator, and advanced toward the
puzzled party In tho Studcbaker.
"Sorry, ilr," he remarked to Mr. Lon
mon. but, if you don't move that car
I'll have to call this game."
"Call It? What for?" replied tht
astounded motorist.
"Why, on account of reflection, I
guess. The sunshine hits It In a dozen
places and reflccta back Into the players'
eyes so they can't see tho ball."
"Well, that's tho highest compliment
for automoblto finish I ever heard,"
laughed Lemmon, "but I guess we can fix
matters up." ,
By covering tho entlro side and front of
the car with linen dusters, supplemented
by robes secured from other motorists in
the parking space, tho sldo ot the Studc
bake "Six" was finally swathed from tho
sun's rays and tho game proceeded with
the players handling the ball as ac-
cu

expect.

For Motor Trucks
The Goodrich tiro renewal shops which
are established throughout this country
aro In lino with the general tendency
throughout thevtmck Industry to' reduce
to a minimum lolit time," says S. V. Mor
ton, manager motor truck tire sales of
B. P. Goodrich cdmpapy, Akron, O.
"When trucks arV Idle, production stops,
and tho various Quick loading devices
designed for thep upose of saving time
reflect the necessity of keeping tho truck
going all the time.
"Before the advanet of tho service sta
tlonl, a tiro replacement meant tho loss
of much valuable tlmo, because tho truck
could not work while the tiro was being
replaced.
Now, with present truck tire service,
the passing of a tiro means but tho loss
of a few minutes. Should tires go bad',
emergency truckB with skilled tiro men
go out at once Calls far such service
are made even up to twenty mites radius
ot the service station.
Overland Band to

Nebraska Leads
All States in the
Number of Fords
A startling contrast as well as a touch
ot human Interest Is found In the or
sonnet of tho Ovo.-UnJ Hand, whl '.h la
to accompany the ItoUrv club of Toledo
to tho International convontlci held
Houston the week ot June 21.
"If we consider tho number of Ford
cars In proportion to the population of
tho various states, we find that theo
cars are more popular In Nebraska th.tn
they arc anywhere else. The Department
of Commerce at Washington has Issued
an estimate ot the population ot each

Chandler Enters the
Chicago-Boston Run
The Chandler Motor Car company of
Cleveland has entered two Chandler light
weight sixes In tho Chicago to Boston
nonstop run, which will bo conducted by
tho Chicago Automobile club this month.
Tho run wilt start from Chicago on June
29. In giving the reason which prompted
the Chandler entries C. A. Emlie, sales
manager of the Chandler company, said:
"We are attracted to the run by tho
fact that it wllf -undoubtedly show tho
actual gasoline consumption of cars.
There are so many misleading state
ments regarding unofficial tests that a
run of this kind should settle' this matter
In tho minds of the public, at least so
far as the cars entered are concerned.
The Chandler company feels that' (he
public Is entitled to this Information, for
fuel economy Is coming to be -a more
and more important factor in deciding
the purchase of a car."
Autos Are Becoming
Popular in Japan
. Japan, at first slow to adopt the motor
car, Is now taking very kindly to tho
automobile, and In fact during the last
two years tho industry haa made very
rapid progress In all the countries of the
far east. Glowing reports of this advance,
are made by Henry W. Andrews, Yoko
hama agent for. the Cadillac, who Is vis
iting In California.
"Two years ago," declares Mr. An
drews, "thero were not 100 motor cars In
Japan. This year more than 1,500 aro
registered.
"Tho aversion to the motor car which
was so apparent a short time ago Is rap
Idly disappearing. Not many years fo
tho sight of tho motor car on the streets
ot any but the large cities brought forth
storms of protest, usually accompanied
by stones hurled at tho driver and occu
pants ot the offending car. Happily this
has. entirely disappeared.
"Tho greatest drawback for tho American-motorist
In Japan would be the price
ot gasoline. It is eaay to obtain, but
trust or no trust, the price Is 32 cents a
gallon."
Henry Ford. However, theso dates arc
the closest It Is possible to get at thU
time. It Is safe to say that tho March
record of 2S.712 Fords which passed out
of the factory doors during the month
will be continued, In which caeo our
figures aro cheating tho Detroit manu
facturer to tho extent ot 86,13$ ears.
"Nevertheless, based on theso two dates,
Nebraska has ono Ford for every 100
people In tho state; Iowa, which Is oc
ond In tho total number ot Fords owned,
also Is second In tho per capita Fordagc,
with one for ovcry 10S people: North Da
kota shows up with one Ford for every
160 In the state; California has a Ford
for every 1M people; Michigan, Its home
state. Is at tho boiling point, with ono
Ford for every 212 people; In Ohio every
two .hundred and eightieth person owns
a Ford and In Illinois every throe hun
dred and sixtieth. In Now York you have
to count 0 people before you come to
a Ford owner and In Alabama it takes
2,000 people to make a Ford family.
"When It Is cohsldcrcd that there Is
an average of five people In each fam
ily, tho ratio shows up even better. For
Instance, In Nebraska every twentieth
farmhouse would have a Ford In front
ot It It It wero not for tho fact that I he
latter probably Is on the road taking tho
butter and eggs to town.
As a matter of fact, In the agricultural
states fewer than twenty farm houses
would bo passed before one of tho little
cars was found, but tho average Is
brought down by the less comfortably
situated city population." Motor Age,

of tho beloved king, recovered the body.
Tho legend continues that Seth nnd his

Into fourteen pieces and scnttered the
parts all over Egypt ench piece being
entombed by worshippers of Osiris
which accounts for the numerous tombs
to him. The faithful Isis, however, re

THIS list price is established
and maintained all over tho
country It makes no dif
ference whether you purchase
your Overland in New York or
New Mexico this firlce never
varies.
Recently, ten friends decid
ed to each get an Overland.
They went to an Overland dealer
in a body said they would take
ten cars on the spot if he would
give them 5 off. Ho refused.
They argued that his neighbor
ing competitor had alr.eady olTer
cd them 10 off on the car ho
represented. The Overland
dealer then replied that if they
would wait a few days longer the
man next door wouldprobably
give them 20 off I They did
wait a few days then bought ten
Overlands at the full list price.
Now these men bought the
Overloads, Mobccausc they knew
so much more about tho car, but
becauso they had complete con
fidence in the lOverland dealer
who had tho ono fixed price and
absolutely no confidence in the
competing dealer who had a
varictv of prices.
It docs not tako any great
amount of intelligence to seo
through the, weaknesses, draw
backs and insecurity of a cut
price car proposition. Eithcrthe
car, or tho factory behind it, or
the dealer, or all three cannot be
relied upon.
Remember that in purchas
ing an Overland you get a great
deal more than just tho best car
for the least money;you get service
that is dependable, permanent
and international.
That the public has firm faith
in the Overland is amply evi
denced by tho following record
breaking figures :
Up to date wo have deliv
ered over $42,000,000.00 worth
of nineteen fourteen Overlands.
Right now the public is invest
ing over $250,000.00 a day in
Overlands.
If wo did not out-class (both
in car value and service) those
who are continually cutting their
price how could we continuo to
get the greatest volumo of busi
ness P
Tho Overland is a larger car;
a more powerful car; a more com
fortable car; a more complete car
and a more thoroughly made car
than any other for the price.
And it costs you 30 less
than any other similar car.
Why don't you have an
Overland demonstration?
