There are many people who know that Herbert Hoover, President of the United States,
maintains a ranch in California. There are probably many more who would like to know
why this mule the national symbol of the Democratic Party makes his home on the
Hoover Ranch. It may be that President Hoover feels sorry for the Party pardon us
the mule, and has taken him in. At any rate "Hawkshaw," our village detective, using a
Chevrolet Six-Cylinder Convertible Coupe, caught these pictures at the ranch.

"Three years ago a well known
New England company furnished
their Sfi salesmen with cars that
cost them In tho course of a year
an average of eight and one-half
Cents a mile.. This Impressed them
as being too high, and after ex
haustive ' tests of other makes of
automobile they .decided to use
the Pontine six," says Mr. Bander
on of Sanderson Motor company,
local dealer..
"In 1928 they were using 82
rontiaos. Thwu cars averaged
6.1 cepts per nillo, or a saving of
3.4 cents over the curs previously
used. Included In tho n.l cents
were all Items of expense, as oil,
gas, repair, siuVaue, Insurance and
depreciation.
"The saving on tho totnl mileage

In other words, the company saved
enough, on the economical opera

"Motor company, local dealer. "This

April, 19Z8, sal.es which, up to the
present year, held -the all-time

ence in profits for the month, was
the greatly Increased sale of the
company's : higher priced models.
Sale of the Willys-Knight . 70-n
models and the Whippet six line
constituted 50 per cent of the total
sales, the remaining 60 per cent
