AHOY, COUGAR HUNTER Here's- Chance for You to Win Real Prize CASH UP FOR BEST KILL Elephant Stood Feet In Air NORMAN, Okla. fAP) The bonea of a prehistoiic elephant, one of the most complete skele tons ever found in the southwest, have been unearthed by Univer sity of Oklahoma scientists.

A contest among the amateur cougar hunters of Oregon for the state championship and a cash prize of $17C will be started by the Oregon State Game commis sion on June 1 and the competi tion will extend until June 1, 1930. The commission has set aside $500 to be awarded to cou gar hunters in addition to the regular bounties. The hunter who kills the second largest number of cougars during the year will receive $100, $75 and $25, re spectively. For some time the game commission has had under consideration a plan which would stimulate greater activity among cougar hunters and thus save the lives of many deer and it was decided- that cash prizes be award ed to the five men who account for the most "big cats." This i week letters will go out to all men who have been paid cougar bounties during the last year, ex plaining the rules of the contest. There was an Increase of more than $15,000 in license fees re ceived by the State Game Com mission during the year ending December 31, 1928, according to figures Just compiled.

Non resident anglers licenses showed an increase of from 4,613 to 5, 368 and there was an Increase of from 702 to 849 in non-resident hunters' licenses issued.

Of particular interest to Chrys ler car owners and of unusual value to police departments throughout the United States is the statistical department at the Chrysler offices in Detroit, where can be found a complete record of any Chrysler car that has been sold since July 1925. Hundreds of columns of facts concerning Chrysler cars are avail able in this department, headed by John W. Scoville. With such thoroughness are these records kept that it requires but 20 minutes to check complete ly any information desired on any Chrysler automobile In the United States. Within that time and with only the engine number, the ser ial number, or the car number or the instrument panel as a guide, the records will show the name of the purchaser of the car, the pur chaser's address, date of pur chase, name of the dealer who sold the car, that of the salesman handling the sale, the model, date of purchase and the occupation of the owner la addition to a num ber of other facts of importance. In the field of sport, perfect balance is essential to the champ ion, whether an individual or a winning team on diamond or grid iron. The well-balanced football team is the one that finishes the season at the head of the list. The golfer who has rhythm of motion and the ability to time and bal ance himself properly Is the one wr- succeeds in playing the course in par. In business it is the well-bal anced organization that functions smoothly, renders the most useful service, and shows greatest prof its. In all phases of life, in sport in business in men in ma chines, balance is essential to success. Smoothness Essential "In an automobile engine," ac cording to P. C. Sauerbrey, factory manager of the Plymouth Motor corporation at Detroit, "seventy five per cent of its smoothness of operation and freedom from vi bration depends on the proper balancing of parts that go into it. "Unless each principal moving part receives the most careful at tention in balancing, the motor will not have the smoothness of operation, and the power suffi cient to enable it to operate with complete satisfaction. Not onlj; is it necessary to balance each'indi vidual part but the entire assem bly must balance to strict prear ranged limits.
