Pleasant Trip of 3000 Miles
Is 'Made In Gardner. Toiir-
v ' ing Car .
" I. S. Ramsey. 124 North Win
ter street, -who left 8alem on July
17, has lust returned, from a
"little 3000-mile jaunt" with his
Gardner touring car. Mr. Ramsey
if -went f rom Salem to Portland and
tnence. overdue uoiamaia river
'htrhway'lo ",Hood Hirer, v From
Hood Hirer the trip was made
l through Baker, Boise' and' Pc
... telfcr to Salt Lake City1. ' Prom
9 Salt Lake, the party went' through
am an'd'OzdYn to Reno and
Carson City; Nevada. Prom Car
son City to Xake Talcoe and then
through Sacramento home, the'
trip was completed. Mr. Ramsey
reports that roads in Oregon and
Idaho ere good but says that the
Nevada and, Utah roads are not
much to speak of. In Nevada the
party made one ldng drive through
the sage brash where there was
absolutely no road.
.'Where everyone was having
trouble And getting stuck on all
sides we went "right on through
with the Gardner," says Mr. Ram
sey. One stretch the sand was
hub deep and for 60 miles, the
Gardner pulled through with the
axles dragging. The weather was
terribly hot, but in spite of this
and the fact that the roads were
very rough, not a tire change was
made throughout the whole trip.
The Gardner ,1s evidently very easy
on tires. ' Mr. Ramsey had neither
puncture or blowout all the way.
, . Another shipment, consisting of. 5Q pairs of .
BICYCLE ; TIRES
received this week; which we will place on sale at
.00 Each

The 'car had to carry load enough
for a truck. There was 800
pounds of baggage besides . four
persons, but the car performed
beautifully. The trip through this
part was the same that Mr. Ram
sey took with a team and wagon
45 years ago, "and the roads
aren't much better now than they
were then,", says Mr. Ramsey.
Mr. Ramsey, who is a lover of
the open range and the beauties of
nature, was greatly Impressed by
the grandeur of the Rocky moun
tains. His Impression was made
deeper by the thought of the rich
mineral deposits lying therein.
This was In Nevada near the rich
Silver and copper deposits.
Mr. Ramsey considers Salt Lake
City' the 'cleanest; in the world."
The long, straight " wide streets
and beautiful buildings in the city
set It out as individual among
cities,, Points of interest which
were visited by the party, in Salt
Lake, were such as the great pipe
organ, where they listened te the
choir of 500 voices, the Mormon
temple, and the museum.
Upon his return from the long
trip Mr. Ramsey visited the I W,
Pettyjohn company from whom he
purchased his car, to," say. that he
had never had better satisfaction
or service out of anything than
he has had from his Gardner car.

The Mac-pry fcattery Is a revel
ation in storage batteries for an
fcomobile use in so far as it elim
inates the -constant inspection and
attention necessary with the wet
or acid battery.' In outer appear
ance it is Identical to other types
of batteries, but, within, it has
a greater supply, of energy due to
Us simplified construction. No
separators are tisau, instead, the
composition which is poured in as
a liquid, thereby penetrating ev
ery creviced forms a concrete sep
aration between the plates which
prevents the "plate from back-
ling or shorting in any wayi
There is no possibility of a plate
shedding its. material if it is con
stantly compressed by a solid sub
stance. That the composition can
withstand the heat is readily asr
certained by applying- a torch to
a particle and veen after this se
vere test it is possible to pick up
the particle without any danger of
burning the flngr-.rs. Another im
portant feature is the -f act that
the Mac-Day battery can be re
charged at any service station, in
the event this becomes necessary
due to a faulty generator or other
abuse, the same as the average
wet type, and 18 hours Is usually
sufficient tltme to Vring it to full
charge. This lnaureu considerable
saving on' rent battery charges.

The man is conflneoVTn the
