ECONOMY isn't the only reason
why housewives take such a
natural pride in their electric
ranges. ,
It's one of the practical reasons, of course
like the quick, clean, electrical heat, the
freedom from fuel and ashes, the better
roasts and baking.
But after all, these might be a man's rea
sons for equipping his home with an elec
tric range. Woman's reasons go deeper. If
you wish to see what every woman thinks
of clean, convenient, efficient electrical
appliances throughout the home, notice
the pride with which she says, "MY elec
tric range."
There is now an electric range in
one out of every' seven houses on the
COPCO system.
Select one for your home from the mod
els on display at your nearest dealer's. Con
venient payments may be easily arranged.

PREHISTORIC RESERVOIRS

fiOLl HILL, Utah. Aup. 6. A
series of six immense reservoirs

are about Jmo yards Ion and are
feathered back Into the hillside.
The wails are from 6 to 25 feet
thick and are bidleved to bp com
posed of ranite, covered with de
bris. ThV hue tanks overlook a once
fertile valley .where coal deposits
have since been found. It is
thought by members of the society
that the reservoirs were used for
irrigation purposes.
Claims that the reservoirs result
ed from glacial action have been
denied by the Cosmographic So
ciety, which points out that no
trick of a glacier could construct
six perfectly symmetrical masonry
formations.
In a limestone cave in the moun
t;iinrii:le above the reservoirs mem
bers of the Smithsonian Institution
found several crmle implements
and "weapons, among which were
several "arrow sprinns," a little
wooden rod with one end bent into
a hook. The arrow was placed in
to the crook and the rod sprung
iit'irr the fashion of the catapult.
The "arrow spring' is considered
to have preceded the bow by sev
eral hundred years.

American aviatorn with the Mc
Millan Arctic expedition are fray
ing the nerves or the Kaklmoii.
On every tent flight, the great
est apprehension U felt by tho
natives on tho ground, who are
unahle to comprehend why the
planes do not fall and who look
lor disaster every minute.
Lieutenant-Commander llyrd, in
charge -nf tho flying detachment,
in a radio mesttaKo today to the
navy department, described yes
terday's activities nf the expedi
tion at Ktuh, Greeland. . IIo told
of the forced lunding of one of
the planes, which apparently was
accomplished without damage.
"Performance of a plnne load
ed and the maximum total weight
with which the piano could take
off water was 5,500 pounds," he
said. "That includes deadweight
of plane and enninc of Stioi)
pounds. Verformance of plane In

AMKITdAlt, India. The Rooae-

animals of the mountains and 1
Jungles of Asia, had not decidsd
when It passed through Kashmir
on lis way to the i'auitr's, by i
Just what route it would return
or how long Its trip would last. :
There was some prospect. It was
said, that the tour might be ex
tended to January and that it j
was possible the expedition might
be continued into China and not
return to India. j
The expedition. Including Colo
nel Theodore Hooscvelt, Kenuil
Itoosevelt, George Cherrle and Mr.
Cutting, a cinema operator, made .
the first part of its trip into In-
dla without Incident. The mem
bers traveled over the well-known
route from Srluagar to Lea aud i
Ladakh. There is abundant game
in that section of the country,
but the expedition was Interested
in getting the ovis poll on the
lofty heights of the i'mnirs and
the long-haired tiger In the Thi
anshan mountains of Chinese i
Turkestan.
The ovis poll, or Pamler aheep.
Is not so rure as some may think,
but as It habitutea the high part
or the Pamir range, the shooting
of It ia made difficult. This
animal ia the largest of the
sheep family and sometimes
weighs 300 pounds. Its head Is
beautified by lta horns, each of
which grows Into a spiraj form,
five to six feet around the curve.
The long-haired tiger found in
the Chinese Turkeslun regions
often grows to a length ot 12
feet. I

There is no secret about
what constitutes a good
gasoline. But it's impor
tant that you know.
I Union Gasoline, for ex
ample, is refined from the
highest grade western
crude. It is a quality prod
uct not made to sell at
a price.
Union Gasoline is non
detonating. Its power
impulses are not those of
a sledge hammer. Its ex
plosion progresses with
resulting power that is
smooth.
With Union, your
motor starts quickly ac
celerates with a swift, vi
brationlcss pick-up and
easily attains an even, glid
ing speed.
You will find, as a result,
that your motor will yield
more miles, at less upkeep
cost, with Union Gasoline.
If it were possible to
make a better gasoline,
that gasoline would.be
found where you see the
Union sign. At Union Oil
service stations, and inde
pendent dealers of the first
class everywhere.
