Friday and Saturday we are going
to have the county meet here and, of
course, we are all going to do our
very dead level best to win all the
honors of this meet for Bay City. But
let us remember one thing—that it is
all to be taken in a friendly way, de-
feat or victory. Let’s make the peo-
ple from the other towns feel at home
here and make them know we are
glad to have them with us, AND let’s
“sure nuff” win the meet.

in field trial events.

taking the juniors along as subs (we
couldn’t do without them anyway).
The score was 17-11 in favor of the

to nego-
tiate these hazardous trails, has won
for them the admiration of all busi-
ness men and motorists of the coun-
try, said Mr. Day.
Mr. Day told of one road which rises
to an altitude of 14,000 feet above sea
level and then drops to 4000 feet in
the course of 80 miles. Over this
road, he said, 95 per cent of the ve-
hicles used are Dodge Brothers motor
cars and Graham Brothers trucks.
One asks how the Peruvians con-
trol travel over these narrow trails
when traffic might wish to go in both
directions at the same time. They
have devised a quaint system of rules
to prevent collisions. Traffic origi-
nating in the upper reaches of the
Andes, say Lima, is permitted to move
down only on Tuesday, Thursday and
Saturday of each week. Traffic from
the lower reaches is allowed to move
upward only on Monday, Wednesday
and Friday.
“The Peruvian government is alive
to the need of improved roads,” said
Mr. Day, “but instead of spending
vast sums of money in intricate engi-
neering feats to cut such roads through
and around the Andes range, the offi-
cials have been content with opening
such trails as will permit easier and
more frequent motor vehicle traffic.
“As an example of this road, or
trail building,” Mr. Day said, “at the
head waters of the Amazon River,
high in the Andes range, the govern-
ment has begun the cutting of trails
from the old town of Iquitos, formerly
famed as one of the big plantation
rubber centers of the country. At
this point where the road engineers
and natives are at work there is but
one motor vehicle in use in the entire

Increased popularity of the Lincoln
car with a discerning motoring public
is evidenced by a new production
schedule announced by the Lincoln
Motoi' Company calling for 40 cars per
day. The new schedule, which is now
in effect, is the highest ever run by
the company, it is said. Custom built
and standard types ofc oachwork will
be affected in equal proportion. For
the time being, production in open
sport types will be stressed in re-
sponse to the seasonal demand for
cars expressing that motif.

A political leader in the Middle
West completed a course of study in
veterinary surgery, but never prac-
ticed. He branched out into politics.
During a campaign his political ene-
mies referred to him as “the Vet,” and
one day at a heated debate one of
them asked, “Are you really a veter-
inary surgeon?”
“Why do you ask?” queried the pol-
itician. “Are you ill?”

Grammar School
This is a fifth grade boy’s idea
the value of correct English:
What I Think of Good English
I think we should always use good
English; for if we use good English,
we shall be classed as a very good
class.
Good English is good because by
its use we can get work easily. Good
English is nice because it brings
many friends who really like us.
If we think we are going to be a
writer, we must know our English
very well. t
Our Part in the County Meet
Mr. Hutcheson sure has the right
spirit in the county events, and now
is the time to do our part. There is
nothing like having the co-operation
of the teachers in a thing like this.
He is determined that we shall win
the meet and WHY disappoint him?
It is for our good and the good of the
school that he wants us to win. He
isn’t compelled to do this, but he has
the right spirit and the willingness to
help. It is only right that we should
make an effort to help him in the task
of helping us and work to win the
county meet. If the question of who
should win the county meet was a
game of chance it would be different,
but it is up to us and our ability.
LET’S WORK!
Miss Pearl Brady
Because we are high school pupils
we don’t know so very much about
Miss Brady, but from what we hear
about her we almost wish we were in

is pretty so we know she’s a fine
We hope Miss Brady will

The grumbler breathed the last breath,
He was laid to rest
On the side of the hill
By the old rusty mill.
Not a sad song was in the air,

There sat a cat in the chair.
No one to love, no one to care.

Fears that the Boling field was get-

completion of a new well by the
Texas Company and bringing back
one of its two wells that sanded and
ceased flowing last week.
No. 6 Taylor of the Texas Company
was completed for 750 barrels of oil
at the 3100-foot horizon. No. 4 Tay-
lor, one of the two sanded wells, was
brought back for 3000 barrels oil
after the hole was cleaned of sand.
No. 3, the other sanded well, is wash-
ing and expected back in momen-
tarily.
Oxford Oil Company’s No. 1 Floyd,
reported Monday as a 500-barrel well,
is reported to have made one head of

Motoring over the rough, narrow
roads of the Andes Mountains in Peru
is a severe test for driver and vehicle,
but the use of cars is steadily gain-

In this country little known to the
average person, improved roads are
almost entirely absent. In their stead
there are mostly rocky, narrow trails
which wind sharply around the moun-
tains with treacherous declivities
yawning on all sides.
It was of this section that Francis

The Frog’s Hop
Once there was a little frog
thought he’d take a hop,
But after he got started he couldn’t
bear to stop;
He hopped through two windows, a
tank and pumpkin too;
Until he came to a doodle-bug’s house,
which he hopped into.
When he got home that night,
He was met by a mob at his door.
They cried, “You have damaged our
things
But we will get you once more.”
Moral: Don’t take a hop unless you
know where you are going to hop.—

Sleeping on the Job
The night was very dark,
stars twinkled in the far away sky.
The sentinel walked slowly up and
down guarding the castle gate. He
yawned once or twice. How sleepy
one gets about 2 o’clock!
He walked slower than before.
“I don’t see how I can keep awake,”
he muttered.
In a few minutes he was fast
asleep. An hour later the enemy ad-
vanced slowly toward the castle.
It was but the work of a few min-
utes to tie the guard and break open
the gates.
Some of us are sleeping on the job
just like that guard.
Wake up!
If we’re alseep of course the other
schools will carry off all the honors.
That’s what they want to do.
Keep an eye open, or the enemy will
carry off the colors in county meet.

section and that is a Graham Broth-
ers truck.”
Iquitos, related Mr. Day, is now a
village of but 6000 inhabitants, but
through revival of the rubber indus-
try due to increased selling prices, it
is becoming a factor again in the com-
mercial life of the country.
A limitation of all weight that may
cross the suspension bridges, the
only type used, is placed on all ve-
hicles. For this reason the Dodge
Brothers vehicles have been found
most suitable for the transportation
of the natives.
“Peru is rapidly showing the ef-
fects of increased capital from the
United States. The North Americans
are exhibiting more energy than the
Europeans who formerly occupied
dominant financial control of Peru
and other South American countries.
United States products are supplant-
ing British made goods in a large
measure,” said Mr. Day.
“United States capital controls the
largest vanadium mines in the world
which are located high in the Andes
range of Peru. This valuable ore en-
ters widely into the manufacture of
high grade steel of which Dodge
Brothers, Inc., is a large consumer.
The vanadium is mined 20,000 feet
above sea level. It is brought out of
the shafts in small bags which are
placed on the backs of lamas w’hich
tread slowly down the narrow moun-
tain trails to a lake where the bags
are placed on a barge and ferried
across to the opposite shore. The
bags then are loaded on freight cars
of a fine standard gauge railroad
which carries it down to tide water
at Callao, from whence it is shipped
aboard vessels northward to United
States ports.
“Peru has a wide variety of climate.
In the tropical sections the finest long
staple cotton in the world is produc-
ed. This cotton is exported to the
United States for the manufacture of
fibre cord automobile tries. Other ag-
ricultural products include coffee and
Mining is the principal
industry of the country, gold, silver
and copper being produced in large
quantities.”
Mr. Day who is an electrical engi-
neer, was born in London, England.
Seven years ago he went out to Peru
with his wife and family to engage at
his profession. Two years ago he
saw the increasing demand for motor
vehicles in that country and obtained
a franchise for handling Dodge Broth-
ers vehicles. Results to date indicate
the wisdom of his selection, for there
are now in operation hundreds of
these cars.
