But while the prices are remarkably low, Studebaker has made no effort to manufacture a small, low-price car, to compete purely on a price basis!
Many cars have been lowered $100 or $200 some have cut the price as much as $375, but if you will examine the cars you will find it is a smaller car

THE STORY OF DOT
You may prate about your high
bred chicks,
Since they are all in stock
We've done away with common
breeds,— 'j
Gone in for Plymouth Rock,
Buff Cochin, Leghorn and the rest,
Too numerous to name
But while I live ,.:I'I1 sound the
praise
Of one old-fashioned dame:
Her comb stood high above her
head,
Her eyes were round and bright,
She was all "black except her tail,
And that was almost white.
iWe. called her "Dot," she was so
round, .• \.?7
Amd looked so like a ball
*Twas common in those days for
chicks
To have no name at. all.
The hen that lays the golden egg
Is the busy hen, you say
Dot sang, and scratched from morn
'till night,
Scarce took the (time to lay.

She was the first to leave the
roost,
And left it with a whoop
She never heard of bumblefoot
And would have laughed at roup.
She never saw a poultry show*
Nor wore prize ribbons gay
But simply sai and laid until
She laid herself away.
One day I heard Dot cackle loud,
Arid I, quite full of glee,
Ran out to g:t the fresh-laid egg
To bake a ca'ke for tea. •.'
On peering down into her nest,
Imagine Thy surprise—
There lay two eggs as much alike
As ycur or my two eyes.
Now what's the use of pure-bred
chicks, :f
Are we keeping them for fun?
When „chickei:s long ago laid eggs,
And two instead of one.
Go prate about your thoroughbreds,
And tell of eggs they've laid
But here's to my old-fashioned hen,
That could lay them in the shade.
EMT1 TEARS DEEP
PIT 11 THE EillH
a
Quite a remarkable earth erup
tion occured near, Sinton, Texas, re
cently, after gas had been struck
at a depth of 2,200 ft. at a new
well which wes toeing sunk. When
the stratum holding the gas was
reached by the drill, the casing ithat
lined the bore was blown for a con
siderable distance into the air by
the terrific force of the flow. For
approximately three weeks the well
remained uncapped and the gas shot
out in great volumes. Then, without
warning, a hole 75 ft. in diameter.
and extending presumably to the
bottom of the original well, was
blown in the earth. lAlmost immed
iately this fissure was filled, to
within 100 ft. of the surface, with
boiling water. AII the well-drilling
machinery disappeared in the great
pit.—From the July Popular Me
chanics Magazine.
