MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFOKU, OREGON. SUNDAY. SEPTEMBER 1, 193. PAGE FIVE inyi Ue AUTO WAY- Bt Crrll gander An English car which wa liava found very lntereatlng la the Aaton Martin "Brltaln'a Best Sports Carl" According to the pamphlets this car haa won considerable lame aa a racer and these passenger cara are aa distinguished aa the racera built by th same company. The cara are available on -two chassis, a short one and a long one. The ahort chas ata la the faster of the two, but the long one haa the beat llnea. In fart, this long chassis 4-seater "spec ial" la very good looking for a sport car. They are. of course, very low and are much neater than many English cara we have seen. By that we mean there are not a lot or "extra" bracings and ao on all around It. Something that little doubt wouia appeal to the younger peopla of America la the chromium plated ex haust pipes coming out of the hood. However, these cars are fitted with those peculiar bicycle fendera we have often mentioned, but we sup pose they are eomethlng of a tradi tion over there, especially on aports cars. We personally can't understand the reason for those fenders they aren't good looking and we should hlnk that they wouldn't be very ef ficient, being aa they leave nearly the whole wheel exposed so that It can throw mud and dirt all over the "just another novel little feature on the car Is the windshield this windshield is fitted with wlnd-wlngs a.nd also folds down over the hood If one should want a real aporty racv looking car you would fold down the windshield, then bring the wlnd-wlnga over In Its place. This gives two amall Individual windshields Instead of the one. It really glvea the car a very novel ap pearance. These cars are advertised to do from T5 to 90 miles per hour and at the same time they get 2 to 27 miles to the gallon of gas even at really high speeds. That la something we ahould learn over here In America. Our cars- have speed. nd plenty of It. but few of them can get even 30 miles to the gallon of gas. Imagine how a car would. sell over here If It was a moderate sited automobile, capable of speeds like they get now and yet have a gaa economy of 25 miles to the gallon. We think It would be a sensation. The real reason for good gas mile age In Europe Is the expense of gas but over here where gaa la com paratively cheap the manufactured for the most part devote their tal ents to other lines. Of course, we realize that perhaps there are many other thlnga to be taken Into con alderatlon, but we think the auto mobile manufacturers ahould devote more time to real economy of gaso line Instead of terrific speeda which can't be used on the majority of hlghwaya In the country. 1 . Long Mileage from Western Giants Is Pritchetfs Claim After giving four and & half years of continuous service, the first West ern Giant Super Whipcord tlra ever told vas returned to the Western Auto Supply company, when D. F. Sharps, water heater sales and serv ice agent, traded It In on the pur chase of a new Super Whipcord to replace It. The tlra haa been In dally use alnce early In 1931, being re moved from the wheel Just long enough to repair one puncture. Sharps estimates that tha tlra haa run over 60.000 ml lea .according to Charles Prltchett, local manager of the auto supply firm. "Of course, this tire service Is un usual, and far more than can ba ex pected from . any tire," Prltchett states, "but all purchasers of six-ply Super Whipcord tires are assured of satisfactory service for two full years, because they are backed by an all road hazard guarantee, and can be serviced at more than 170 Western aJotel fanPablo JLm Cental A HoMeIwayFwnoHl Completely Renovated---. - - - and Redecorated HATtl With detached bath fromfliS os9y With Bath v froeiUilaiy FREE - iAttWMOOOttl a a rage VnlncoFFnsHOP DIRECTIONS TO HOTEU Jtay on Wain Wyhway (San Pablo Jtvenut) directly to 20thStreet Vt.W-MtryA CrnrnrT STOP over night ai iheSMPMBLOenroute ioiheSM DIEGO Four Is Not A Crowd r ' V EV v r - i i mi - ten VAH h hV.:'.-A -Mi. itmsHtL.. 1 - . ttJ.uu. ,arf ma 12 v s - ( 1 '.

"Since Sharpe's light delivery truck, which uses a passenger size tire, Is so often otverloaded, he was particu larly complimentary of the side-wall strength of Super Whipcords, for on all previous tires of other makes the sides had broken down and blown out before the tread had worn away." "It Is only natural that the Super Whipcord sldewall ahould give longer Ufa because the spiralling ridges on the sides act as cooling fins, drawing the heat off as the planes on air- cooled airplane motors do, thus pre serving the life of the rarea:s and rubber, and giving greater blowout protection." Said to be the most distinctive tire In America, the Super Whipcord pre sents an attractive appearance on the car, harmonizing with the stream lines of the newest cars, and enhanc ing the appearance of older cars. Prltchett says that the present low prices bring Super Whipcord quality within the reach of all who drive.

Contributed St. Mary's Academy under direction of the Sister of the Holy Names of Jesus and Mary, claims the distinc tion of being the first Catholic insti tution of secondary education in southern Oregon. From its humble beginnings In Jacksonville In 1863, It has become an educational force, with an Influence far reaching. It aim la to educate young men and young women, by the growth, de velopment and discipline of their physical, mental and moral powers. That youth may attain to the ideal of Its highest self, that it may be pre pared for the larger life stretching beyond the realm of school . life, knowledge and religion must go hand in hand in the formation of character. The faculty atma at the building up of the youth of well-disciplined hab its of body and mind and recognizes that this ideal can be reached thru a principle of self control and well- defined Ideas of respect for order and authority. The regulations govern ing the discipline of the students are made for earnest conscientious boys and girls who are In sympathy with their Instructors and the spirit of St. Mary's. A well trained mind Is the develop ment of but one faculty of the soul; education demands more for the en dowment of true manhood and womanhood as virtue la not necessar ily the accomplishment of intellect ual culture. Morality aaaumea that the Divine precepts must be Ingrained In the spiritual nature of the individ ual. True to Catholic teachings, the Sisters of the Holy Names endeavor to form the minds and heart of the students, who come within their walls, along the Ideals and principles of true education. St. Mary's Academy, fully accredlt- ed by the state board of education Is I a resident and day school comprising well-equipped elementary, high school and music department. The home life of a student at St. Mary's is filled with contentment. Her school is a realm where duty suc ceeds duty without Impairing her energies or depressing her spirlta. Her personal comforts, her associations and amusement, the literary and musical entertainment, the sympathy of Instructors, all combine to make school days happy ones. Aa the usefulness and happiness of woman and her power of making oth ers happy depend on the number of high and worthy pursuits in which she takes an intelligent Interest, adaptability and unselfishness are qualities which require an early and intelligent growth in youth. Life in a convent boarding school la eminent ly fitted to teach self-control and consideration for others, rather than for self. A feature of tha high school de partment is student participation In the government of St. Mary's. The object of this organization la to de velop In the student the powers of self-government by teaching through active participation in school govern ment the student's rerponslblllties and duties to fellow students and school, and thus to secure for later life the training necessary for a good citizenship.
