The' great number of aluminum castings in the Overland
Model 69 T are a guarantee o f its high quality. They use 8 tons of
the first grade of aluminum every day. It is especially heat treated
just as carefully as the expensive steels which go into the car.
Aluminum costs many times what brittle iron does. It is tons
of pounds stronger; its lightness reduces weight and saves tire bills.

University For Political
Training Opened Recently.
HOB. JAMES LEES LAIDLAW.
A neT' woman's university opened
its doors recently: it offers a three
years' course to tit the women of New
Fork state to take their place in the
peat political world. There will be
no sheepskin as a reward for hard
Study, however. The diploma will be
a ballot, and commencement day will
be the Bret Tuesday in November, 1915.
The freshman class enrolled has 70,-
000 members, the largest class in
American educational history. Their
class yell is " Victory-J915!"
Yes, the Woman's University of New
York State that is what Mrs. James
Lees Laidlaw christened the campaign.
The college year of this new woman's
university was opened with appropri
ate ceremony at the "president's of
fice" at 30 East Thirty-fourth . street
New York city. The new victory pen-
naut was flung to the breeze, as the
Women beg pardon, the professors-
leaned out of the window and gave the
college yell: '
"Victory-1915!
"Rah, rah. rah!
"Votes for women!
"Rah, rah. rah!"
The colors of the new pennant are
gold tiiid white "sunshine and light,"
as Mrs. Liiidlaw expressed it in the
rapturous little speech she made to ber
colleagues after they shut the window
Tne nag fluttered In the morning
breeze, and the regular pedestrians of
Thirty-fourth street, who have long
siuce grown accustomed to looking up
at No. 30 to see what, those women are
up to now, were' rewarded by the visiou
of a clean white flag with clear yellow
letters instead of the dingy yellow and
black one which has waved for so Ion;
in the dust and smoke. The letters
read: "Woman Suffrage Party. Vic
tory 1915." One man stopped and po
litely lifted his hat. The women watch
ing hugged each other ecstatically.
'We'll make them all respect our
cause before 1915," tbey prophesied.
Then they agreed, as the first step
in their education, to practice the use
of campaign words and eliminate from
their vocabularies all superfluous words
unconnected with suffrage.
'We shall greet each other with 'Vic
tory, 1915.'" Mrs. Laidlaw announced.
'There will be no more trite 'good
mornings' or 'hello, honeys.' when we
meet. We shall do as the early Chris
tians did or as the is it the Arabs
who greet -every one with 'Peace be
with you?" If you see two suffragists
meeting on Fifth avenue and' they
don't say 'Good morning,' don't thlnB
they haven't any manners. Just re
member they are using the much more
beautiful and significant form of salu
tation, which comes from the heart
'Victory, 1915.' Think how happy It
will make us! How a walk down the
avenue will beer and strengthen us
in the faith when on every corner we
meet a friend who cries .'Victory f "
The new university will have ex
tension courses all over the state of
New York. Every town will have Its
school for women politicians and every
county its educational organization
The district work will extend to every
farm kitchen and every group of cross:
roads politicians gathered around the
old iron stove In the back of Cy Mil
ler's store. The womeu have no In
tention of confining their 1915 cam
paign to New York city.

Baseball Mssnates Turn Over
$400,Q00Fcr Star Minors.
RAY SCHALK TOPS THE LIST
Crack. Yoorig Catcher Cost Chicago
Club $10,000 Chapman of Cleveland
Comes Next at $7,500 New York
Giants Paid $7,000 For Demaree.
It costs money, and lots of it, to op
erate a major league ball club. Star
ball players, and players who are not
stars, come high. Last year the two
major leagues expended nearly $400,
000 in ball players. The report of the
national commission announces this de-
idedly interesting fact.
The American league In its search
for promising baseball material was
far more liberal than its rival, the Na
tional. The organization presided over
by Ban Johnson spent $121,450 for pur
chased players. The National league
was much behind in this respect with
$74,900. The American league gave
the minors $61,000 for drafted players,
while the National league handed the
smaller club owners $41,900.
A recapitulation shows the American
league gambled to the extent of $93,-
000 more in recruits than did Tom
Lyncb's organization. As is custom
ary, a number of players were pur
chased at certain price, part of which
was puiu over hi lue time oi aenvery,
the rest to be paid If the player made
good. In this respect the National
owes a little more than the Johnsonian
circuit. If certain National league
youngsters come through with the
goods the minors will profit to the ex
tent of $49,350, while the American in
that event will be forced to pay $43,-
900 more.
These figures look big when one con
siders them only as such, but it is re
markable how the money can pile up
when a club seeks to strengthen its
liue-up. Catcher Schalk, secured by
Comiskey from Milwaukee, cost the
Old Roman" in the neighborhood of
$10,000. He looks well worth that
amount on the form displayed last fall.
Cleveland had to expend something
like $7,500 for Ray Chapman'. It looked
like a big price, but after Nap fans had
a chance to see the youngster in action
to a man they considered it money well
spent.
The New York Giants paid about
$7,000 for Demaree from the Mobile
club. McGraw gave this star several
chances to show last fall, and he pitch
ed well, scoring a shutout In his open
ing game. It is hinted that McGraw is
banking on him for this summer. The
New York Americans secured Ray
Keating from the New England league
at a cost of $7,500. Great things are ex
pected, of thisfcspitballer. . Keating had
a most unusual debut last fall. Sent in
to pitch against thp Browns in the
ninth inning, he -wade the St. Louis
fans sit up and take notice by retiring
the side on strikes.
Cleveland ranked third among the
eight clubs in regard to purchased
players, spending $17,850. Detroit led
with $25,100. with Chicago second with
$23,900. Washington and Philadelphia
spent the least in this direction. Fol
lowing are the amounts spent by Amer
ican league club owners for purchased
players:
Detroit. $25,100: Chicago, $23,000;
Cleveland. $17,850: New York, $13,500;
St. Louis. $12,700: Boston. $11,500;
Philadelphia, $9,000; Washington, $7,-
250. Additional amounts to be paid if
players deliver the goods are as fol
lows:. Chicago, $12,000; Boston, $9,000;
St. Louis, $8,650; Detroit, $8,250; Wash
ington. $3,500: New York, $2,500.
For drafted players the clubs ex
pended the following amounts: St.
Louis, $11,700; Washington, $11,500;
Detroit, $10,700: Philadelphia, $9,900;
Cleveland, $G,950: Chicago, $5,150; New

Maps as Banknotes.
I knew bf a curious instance of the
fertility of the Kitst Indian intive
brain. A hoy had attended school and
been instructed to some extent in geog
raphy. Struck evidently by the simi
larity of a colored map to the bank
notes widely circulated in Rhodesia, he
cut out a portion of the former and
obtained from a less sophisticated
neighbor the sum of 1 in gold, explain
ing that he required the money in ex
change for his "note.'" His obliging
victim, thinking perhaps that the
note" seemed hardly up to sample, en
deavored to re-exchange it -with Eu
ropean. The result was. of course, dis
astrous to the perpetrator of the fraud.

TYPICAL DIAGRAM INDICATING PAKCEL POST ZONES FROM CHICAGO AND SHOWING HOW
TO COMPUTE POSTAGE ON , PACKAGES. v
This map. made with Chicago as a base, shows how the sone system will be used In arranging rates fo'r the parcel post
service . .
Establishing zones by drawing circles of different diameters, with each postofflce as a center, would mean an Impracticable
amount of figuring. Instead of using townships and counties as units or starting points It was decided to divide the whole
country into blocks or units, each block being half a degree In latitude In north-south extension and half a degree of longi
tude east and west. There are 3.500 of these units In the country.
An example of how to get the first zone Is as follows:
Plnd the center of the unit In which your postofflce is located. Draw a circle of fifty miles radius around that center.
Every unit which lies wholly within that circle or more than half of which Is within that circle is Included in the first zone
from any postofflce, and the postage rate Is 5 cents for the first pound and 3 cents for each additional pound.
The second zone is determined by drawing with the same centerka circle of 150 miles radius. Every unit which lies within
h, but outside of the first zone. Is In the second zone, and the rate Is 6'cents for the first pound and 4 cents for each addition
al pound -
The method by which the second zone Is determined Is used for all other zones, their radii and rate of postage for the first
and additional pounds respectively being as follows: Third zone. 300 miles. 1 cents, 5 cents; fourth zone. BOO miles, 8 cents, 6
cents; fifth zone. 1.000 miles. 9 cents. 7 cents; sixth zone. 1.400 miles, 10 cents, 9 cents; seventh zone, 1.800 miles. 11 cents. 10
cents: eighth zone and all territory farther away, including the Philippines and Island possessions. 12 cents flat.
For the purpose of carrying this law Into effect the United States is divided into zones, with different rates of
postage applicable tc each, as follows: ' ' ' '
