Thia flying squadron left the quarters of the, Oldamobile company of Oregon last week for central and
eastern Oregon. The three human membera of the de monstratins; quartet are all ex-members of the Third
Oregon and of its war-time successor, the l2d infantry, and served with It "both on the Mexican border in
191 and later In France. Pal, who i the property and aouvenir of Mr. Manotet, was likewise a member of
their outfit. The team prides itself on being- 10 per cent efficient. Its first stop at Hood River resulted in
veiling tv Oldsmohile truck to help ship out the crop of Hood River apples. The demonstrators expect to be
on the road about one month, in which. time they will cover most of central and eastern Oregon, stopping at
all towns to show and demonstrate the Oldsmobilo line and takJog orders throughout the territory.

Woman Motorist More Common.
The number of women driving
cars these days may be counted by
the score. The female of the species
even is projecting into the ranks of
jitney and bus drivers and the hand
that rocks the cradle is proving as
steady at the wheel. Women also
may be found in the . automobile
school learning all about crank
shafts, ignition and other details.
An interesting fact in this connec
tion is brought out by a recent sum
mary compiled by the Firestone
company. It shows that women are
much less often called into court
for disregarding motor ordinances
or speed laws, and the figures prove
tha.t woman chauffeurs meet with
far fewer accidents than do men.
Mexico is literally flooded with
stolen automobiles, which are sold
for 50 per cent of their actual vslue.
