Here are the Results of the Sworn-to Demonstrations of Franklin Thrift as tested out all over the United States Yesterday, Friday the 13th Franklin dealers everywhere were doing the same thing measuring Franklin thrift by mileage on a single gallon of commercial gasolme. Our own record was 50.9 miles per gallon. We got a telegram from the Franklin factory, announcing the Grand National Average, confirmed by affidavits of prominent men in all lo calities where the tests were made. In New Haven, Conn., a stock Franklin covered 82.6 miles on a single gallon of gasoline. That was the highest mileage. 40.3 miles on a single gallon the average of 179 stock Franklin cars, the ENTIRE number partici pating in this nation-wide demonstration. Here you have the standard of thrift. Franklin Think of the roads, the cli mate, the weather, all of these cars experienced. Then, think of the significance of such a na-ticn-wide test. It means, as a car for thrift, the Franklin stands alone among all fine automobiles. Only a fine car can show such results. WHAT'S BACK OF IT ALL Only by the elimination of 177 heavy and troublesome water cooling parts and complicated mechanism everywhere, can gasoline-consuming friction and drag, wear and tear, be mini mized. Only scientific-light-weight construction and fine materials, rightly distributed, allow a car to put a stop to fuel waste. MORE THAN MILES PER GALLON Thi easy running of the Franklin means efficiency waste cutting all along th, line. Take tires Franklin owners report an average of over 10,000 miles in a five-year period. Easy, buoyant, gasoline-saving opera tion is responsible for this record. Depreciation Find a used Franklin for sale. Compare the Franklin re-sale price with the prices other fine used-cars bring, in proportion to their first cost. If gasoline is lasting, the car is long-lived. The same wearing drag that boosts the gasoline bill also boosts the repair bill. Mrs. Kntriken was formerly Mis." Cora Roulstone. Havid w. Hazen special writer for the Portland 'Telegram.

Wiregrip Tires have the best ma terial and the best workmanship. 2nd They are scientifically designed for the maximum of wear, their non-skidding properties, and their freedom'from cuts and punctures. 3rd Study the steel coils, with thous ands of claws gripping the road with a tiger's surefootedness. See how these points resist wear, pre vent cuts and hold to the roadbed. 4th Now consider the extra thousands of miles obtained by Wiregrip users. 5th Then insure yourself against skid ding and against tire trouble by equipping with the most scientifi cally designed, perfectly made tire on the market. 6th No matter how wet and slippery the pavement no matter how sharply you turn or how suddenly you put on the brakes-Wiregrips hold the road as no other non-skid device can. 7th Wiregrips are SAFE, give less trouble and are more economical even if they cost more at first. It's the quality that governs the cost and that built into the tire. We are agent in Pendleton and have them in stock. Come and ' see them.

Havlnff a section al field, they would take a sectional view of public affairs, that too at a crisis in our national affairs which demands cultivation of patriotism as broad as the republic. The few strong publications of larKe national circulation would occupy much of the field abandoned by their weaker brethren, and there would be a strons tendency toward monopoly in the periodical business, with all its at- Whenever you come to the conclusion that the next automobile you buy should deliver a dollar's worth of efficiency for every dollar you invest, then you are ready to investigate the Franklin.

They appeal to relatively few people in each center of population, and depend for circulation upon their ability to reach all the people through out the country who are lnterentfd In their particular trade or ncUmce. Many of them could not continue to exiat of confined to a restricted field by prohibitive poMtal rate. As dally newspapers have but limited circula tion beyond the firm or second zone around the place of publication, they would be lent seriously injured fi nancially, but the same tendency to sectionalism and to restrict spread of Information and to prevent Inter change of opinion would become ap parent.

The country newspapora and those published in smal) cities and towns would be less affected directly than the great city neswpapers or other periodicals, for the House proposes to continue the present privilege of free circulation and the present second, clawi mail rate within the county of publication. Hut the country editor would be injuriously affected in other ways. The daily press of thin country U one Mtructure, in which the big city newspaper Is closely related to ths country paper. The news of th world Is collected and distributed by the Associated Press as the co-operative agency of the big papers, and throuah them It reaches the country papers. Any legislation which cuts the revenue of the big papers will reduce their ability to perform this necessary function. Kvery editor n-eds to keep informed of affairs end opinion In the country at large, and hs can best do so by obtaining city pa pers in exchange and by reading the weekly and monthly magazines. Pro hibitive mail rates would put them beyond his means. The country pa per's prosperity is closely bound up with that of the farmer whose success li promoted by the farmers' weekly paper. Newspapers of this class would cease to be national In scope, would be confined to a limited field and would deteriorate In quality. Thus a blow struck at one part of the periodical press sends a shocle through nil parts." CP ALTA TODAY BLANCH SWEET AND COVJlWIYOT? o. ivxk. Governor Frank O.
