Pedagogue Uses
Overland Motor to
Teach School
Australia has a pedagogue -who teach ej
a school several thousand miles In di
ameter. He conducts his class In a dis
trict of Queensland whore a ranch of
35,000 acres Is considered small. In order
to gather- enough pupils to fill a, one
room" school house It would be necessary
to draw jorf - the entire country wtfhln
a. radius ;of COO miles.
So Instead of supporting a number of
struggling educational Institutions In
semi-populated localities, the Australian
government engages an Itinerant school
master who Is an expert motorist and
a hardy tourist. For his use they havo
purchased an Overland automobile from
the wniys-Overland dealer In Queens
town. -
In his car the traveling teacher goes
from ranch to ranch making stops of
two "or three days each, distributing
books and mapping out a course of In
struction by which the youngsters can
easily teach themselves. The pupils are
treated to lengthy vacations every year,
aa the school terms are curtailed by
heavy-rains that sweep Australia dur
ing the spring and often continue
through the summer. During these sea
sons the streams are flooded and the
roads are impassable for all vehicles.
Besides the lono tourist the car car
ries sixty gallons of gasollno, ten gal
lons of oil, thirty gallons of water and
160 pounds of school books. Purihg his
first term the schoolmaster covered more
than 4,000 miles and did not see a railroad
track for six months.
A regular live wire Is Raymond U
Uarpbam, more familiarly known by the
euphonious brief of Ray, who Is district
manager for the Firestone Tire company
and when a habitue of automobile row
hears a chug, a honk, gets a short glimpse
of a blue streak and hears a farewell
toot up the street a considerable dis
tance he Immediately guesses Harpham.
Ray Is In a class by himself ns a speed
merchant and even his career since leav
ing collcgo has been nothing short of
meteoric. Harpham went to Buchtel col
lege In Akron, O., and there he won a
flock of medals for running on the cinder
path and for starring at basket ball.
After graduation he entered the service
of the Firestone firm. One year In Akron
and he was sent to Chicago, Two years
nnd a half In Chicago and he became
branch manager In Omaha. He has been
here three years now and the local branch
has, become one of the dependable
branches In the big Firestone system.
Harpham has a host of friends In
Omaha and despite his success the top
button of his vest Is not in the least
strained. He is the same old Ray that
he was when a boy in Akron, but he is
a bit more matured and steadied and he
now gives more attention to business
than he did during his factory days at
Akron.

CADILLAC COUPE EARNS
PERFECT SCORE IN RUN
That even a reliability run in these days
of mechanical achievement can reveal
something new and unusual was demon
strated at tho recent contest held by tho
Chicago Athletic association and the Chi
cago Automobile club In a run to Peoria,
III., and back. Ry long oddn the most
discussed feature of tho contest was tho
winning of a perfect scoro by a Cadillac
coupe, tho only car of that type in the
event
Among the contestants was Qorgo B.
Dryden, a director In tho Chicago Ath
letic association. Mr. Dryden has novor
been In a reliability run, and, doubtful of
his ability to handle a car under surti
conditions, was about to decline to par
ticipate. At the last moment, however,
ho elected to pilot his Cadillac coupe.
Ho well did he drive and mo satisfactorily
did his coupo perform, that Mr. Dryden
not only earned" a clean score, but satis
fled himself that his coupe was as fast
as nny of tho machines In the run, and as
economical as many a smaller and lighter
car. Moreover, on the return from Peoria
Mr. Dryden had the laugh on the other
contestants because of the hard rain that
fell
At the banquet following tho ran. Mr.
Dryden was voted a medal an the only
man who had ever driven a coupe to vic

Here at the factory, we know what the public thinks
of the Paige. There is only one way that we can
interpret the tidal wave of demand that surges back
to us from Paige dealers all over the country.
No one could misunderstand a demand that has in
creased Paige sales from $44,000 to $1,250,000 a
month. No one could misunderstand a demand
that has moved lis bodily from a small two-story
plant into the present mammoth Paige factory.
