after he and his wife had completed
an extensive tour of the l!car state.
The California scenery,- Itccd said,
Brew-monotonous -after, a -short time
because of its barren brownness. The
hills of Oregon, cladin the exercreen,
were a-welcome sight,, he . said, when
they crossed over the divide in the
Klskiyous.
r"VVe wore anxious to get to Califor
nia," Heed said, "where we were to
spend most of our time and where we
expected to see the most beautiful
scenery and visit the most Interesting
places. So we hurried through Oregon
on the downward trip, leaving I'rrt
land In the early morning and driv
ing through to Ashland, a distance of
330 miles, arriving there at 6 o'clock
P. m., and. where we stopped over
night. The highway from Portland to
tho Southern Oregon line Is now al-1
most entirely paved and the - tourist j
encounters very good going except
for two or three short detours where
the roads are 'good but rough. I
"Next morning we got another early
start,, intending to spend, that night in
Corning, Cal., where first class hotel
facilities can be had, but made such
excellent time that we Kb to Corning j
In the early afternoon and then de
cided to drive through to San Fran-1

although quite rough in places, are'
hard and good time can be made in ;
dry weather very sloppy and muddy j
and dangerous In wet weather.
"Froin San Francisco we went south
via the coast route, along this hinh
way, which is paved all the way to Los
Angeles, expect for one detour south
of Santa Marin, we found the most
beautiful scenery encountered in Cali
fornia. We sient some time visitlns
the various missions that are to be
found at intervals from San Jose tn
!jp.n Diego, and are of the greatest in
terest to those knowing the early Cali
fornia history. These missions are
open to the public and while most of
them have been rebuilt to preserves
their original appearance, some are

say the Mission 'play at San Gabriel j

runs; three months each year and is j
being portrayed by very able actors)
of th. first .arrival and! early history j
of the Finm-iscian fathers who found
ed the missions in California. This
play should not be ml8cd by the,
tourist.
"Much of our time was spent in
l.os Angeles, where business of all
kinds is booming, and in the surround
ing beach towns. Froiq Los Angeles
we went south to San Diego, stopping
off to see thefamous eaves at LaJull..
and the missions en route. From San
Pieqn the thirsty individual can reach

in an hour's driving, no passport being
necessary,' only to register your car
on the American side. Here can be
seen the army of Mexican generals on
parade.

I brown prairies and mountains the

good to the eye of the tourist end we
wore unanimous- in our declaration
that Oregon has by far the best scen
ery of the. 'roast states, If not in the
world. The tourist should not misf
the famous marble caves of Oregon,
some ,10 odd miles from (irants Pass,
near Crater Lake, while in Southern
Oregon. '.
"The re.-il Joy of touring is In hav

Nifty Studebaker
Big Six Speedster
Sold to Local Man
One of the niftiest ears I'en-
dletonians have seen this season
is the ltig Six speedster, a late
model of Studebaker Bros.,
which has been on display at
Wallace tiros, since Wednesday
this week.. The. one car which
the local dealers have was said
Friday afternoon to L. S. Spcnce
Pentley.
, Motor fans have 'been looking
at the car by the dozen since
its arrival in the middle of the
week. It is built with the idea
of providing a big car that will
furnish a driver all the speed he
can use. It Is pleasing to the
eye, Is built for comfort, and
has the Studebaker ideas of
construction embodied in It.
Some of tile, equipment In
cludes two extra . disk wheels
equipped with cord tires, heavy
flexible bumpers both frort and
rear, a trunk rack on the rear
which is provided with a lock
!"rt which 'holds a suitcase
which also can be locked.
Snubbers, windshield cleaner,
eown ventilator, mutornletor,
tonneau light with extension
cord and the Alemitc lubricating
system are some other features
that appeal to buyers. It la also
equipped with a theft proof
transmission lock. The front
door pocket Is the carrying
place for tools. ' The door is
locked with a, Yale key. It has
upholstered arm rests In the
back seat, and the whole scheme
of the env is designed with the
idea of providing a maximum of
comfort.
. "Uehind the announcement of the j
r;ce reduction In Seiberling Cords
and Portage cord and fabric tires is a
i-tory of the determination of Frank A..
Seiberllng to raise tire quality and to
lower tire prices," said H. It. Mangold
of the Pendleton Auto Company to
day. "Ever since the Seiberllug Hubber
Company gladdened tho hearts of
small ear owners by turning out a
quality 30x3 i clincher cord to sell to
the consumer at $12.00, we have,
known that Mr. Seiberllng and the Sei
berllug englneeru have been worging
lo bring about a lower price on
straight side Seiberllng Cords and on
HtRiicht side Portage tires -without
sacrificing Quality."
"The revolutionary low price of
12.50 for the Seiberllng 30x3 v2 clin
cher Cord was made possible . by
manufacturing efficiencies such as no
'other tire manufacturer that I know
of has been able to equal."
".Most Important of all -this low
price was brought about without
skimping In quality or workmanship.
The Seiberllng 12.50 Clincher Cord
Is built of the same materials as tho
larger size Seiberling Cord is admit
tedly a super-tire." ,
"Mr. Seiberling made up his mind
that a plan could bo worked out for
..tiii-.iMn- in Ht.r ltivirinction of straight
slue tires the same manufacturing j
principles that mnde possible tne
$12.60 Clincher Cord."
"For months he and his engineers
have been working on that problem."
"And now we have heard from Mr.
Seiberllng that these processes have
been proved out successfully by actual
tests and that the savings In manufac
turing costs, will bo shared with cur
owners by lowering the prices of 8ol
bciiing and Portage tires and tubes.
