Here is a new one, based on the experi ence of three Italian mountain climbers, that, held by a rope, hung for five hours over a moun tain precipice, waiting to be saved. What would you THINK about hanging for five hours below the edge of a precipice? Would you review your sins and mistakes, vowing better conduct, if spared, or would you just HANG OVER THE PRECIPICE? We are all hanging over the e.igo of one steep precipice, called ueuth. A great majority of us “just hang” and think about it very little. Steel common above 110, corn worth mom than $1 a bushel on the farm, twenty cents more than that in Chicago; wheat for d«divery nex May selling at $1.40, stocks crawling up so that brokers, afraid to buy, rub their eyes saying to themselves “It can’t be real.” SOMEBODY thinks were is a booin cowing. ■ — ■ I... Lieutenant Donald Phillips flew 1.300 miles from Texns to Ohio. You may say, "That’s nothing, everybody does it." But notice the size of his flying machine, called “AloueUe,” spread of wings 18 feet, totai weight including motor, 480 pounds. That machine docs 20 miles on a gallon of gas. goes 105 miles an hour, and could take a traveling .man from New York to Chicago in 9 hours across the continent in 30 hours. "AloueUe” could be stored jon an “upper shelf" of a garage, ithe earth car below, flying car above. What story of loneliness, <!e»nair and, pcrhaps,Jealousy, lies back of a dreadful murder and attempted suicide reported from l.indsey, On tario? A mother twenty-eight years old, in her husband's absence, erected an improvised gallows, on which «he hanged her two children aged seven and eight. She then cut her throat, and was found bleeding to death by her own husband when he returned to thrir lonely, isolated farm from “a visit to the city.” Afer she had hanged the children, tbe mother dressed them in their best clothes and laid them out. Then she cut her throat. She may Set well. The woman said nothing ut "they are dead,” when her hus band questioned her. Reading about that may by com parison comfort some who' think they have serious troubles. Which One Will Get Your Vote? ] IP COOLIDGE DAVIS U ------------- E —— NeU width will ba cut from ths wing?, weight taken from the sa- fine, speed mors than doubled. And he individual transportation prob lem will be solved. What books would you take to a desert island? What would you do if you knew you had only one more /ear to live? What would you do if you had twenty million dollars? Helen Stein, intelligent young secretary of Nathan Straus, replied to that last question, “I'd go craiy." "Wheat prices jump in wild bull market.” That headline was predicted in this column a long time ago. You read it yesterday and you will read more like it. "May wheat” sells above $1.40 in Chicago. One dollar and fifty cent wheat isn't far off. And that is not bad news for Galvin Coolidge. As for corn, its high price mean» wealth for farmers lucky enough to raise any, and high cost for the meat that is fed on it. f COTRIKIt __________ Q other iit_w«puj;vr newspapers iu ia «Ji all p«ir»,5 parts di of me ths • » In conjunction with a 1700 « zv vt-tiLi bnited btates, this newspaper is now conducting a presidential poll, s/' that supporters of each candidate may know how their respective candidate- are running.

It has u body structurally identical with the closed bodies of cars in the three thousand dollar class. All Oakland bodies, closed or open, are built by Fisher to the same uncompromising standard of excellence. This body is finished in Duco from top to bottom — a beautiful lustrous finish that will stay that way. It has the new Fisher one-piece ventilating windshield—a life saver on suffocating days —rain proof in a cloudburst! It has all the True Blue Oakland features of motor car enjoyment—a year in advance of its field in precision of manufacture, in performance, and in riding and driv* ing comforts. See it—ride in it—compare its performance— Look at the workmanship. Oakland has built you your kind of a closed car—and is sell ing it at a very modest price.
