LOCAL CHILDREN
TO BE GUESTS AT
Local children will again be guests
of Shell Oil company at their annual
Christmas show, scheduled to appear
here Monday. November 28, according
to C. V. Starbuck, manager for the
company here.
The show, traveling on a truck of
modern design, will feature a very
novel and amusing performance of
hand puppets, the oldest known form
of amusement of this kind. For more
than 2000 years hand puppets have
been amusing people. Specimens of
these puppets have been found in
Egyptian tombs. They were the fore
v&onera of the Punch and Judy show
so popular In the Middle Ages. In
stead o3 being worked with strings,
like the "jiiartonettes seen In previous
Shell ahcMi?. these puppet are held
In the hand and the fingers give
them their lifelike motion.
This show should prove very amus
ing to the grownups a well as the
children. At the conclusion of each
performance a novel box of candy
will be given to each child present by
a real Santa Glaus. Joey the Clown,
who gained so much favor In past
years, will again be a part of the
show to entertain the youngsters
with his fun-making antics.
All performances of the Shell Show
are given free on the special stage
of the truck In which the show
travels. Performances will be given
on Main street In front of the Jack
son County Chamber of Commerce
building at 7:30 p. m.
The following day, the kiddies of
Jacksonville will enjoy the Shell
Christmas show when the big truck
stops at the Jacksonville school house
at 9 a. m. At 9:15 a. m., the Christ
mas show will be featured at the
school grounds at Phoenix, after
which the Shell troup will travel on
to Ashland for a show at the Plaza
at 10:30 p. m. ,

HOLLYWOOD, Cal.. Nov. 36. ( AP)
Escaping gas fumes killed Mrs.

Walt Disney, noted film cartoon
ist, today in her North Hollywood
home.
The husband and father, Ellas
Disney, 80, was taken to a hospital
In a serious condition but physicians
said he probably will recover.
Alma Smith, cook and maid for
the Dlsneys, found them uncoiv
sclous upstairs after being almost
overcome herself when she arose and
went to the kitchen to cook break
fast. She threw open all windows
she could reach and staggered out
side to summon aid.

Marahajah Auto
Travels Fast On
Elephant Trails
Accompanying an order received by
the Packard Motor Car company for
a car destined for an Indian maha
rajah wm the following note: "The
ma ha rajah . weighs a B0 pounds. He
has two brothera who always travel
with him. One weigh 325 pounds
and the other 350. In addition, the !
car will carry five other passengers.
The maharajah will use the car to
travel between hia native capital and
Bombay. No other motor cars are
driven through this section. Thore
are no roads. The maharajah's car
travels the greatest part of the dis
tance between his home and Bombay
along elephant tralla and across the
open country. A compared with
other part of the route the elephant
trails could be considered good roads.
He travrls at from 70 to so miles an
hour." The car which has just been
shipped to fill the maharajah's order
la an eight-passenger super eight
limousine, according to Perry L. Ash
craft, local Packard dealer.
The fifth shock absorber, recently
Introduced by Packard, will greatly
Increase the riding comfort of the
maharajah's car.
The fifth shock absorber, it la ex
plained by Mr. Ash era ft. serves to
suppress side wise vibration of the
frame with relation to the rear axle.
It controls lateral movements of the
frame and body caused by road in
equalities In much the same manner
that the four usual shock absorbers
restrain vertical movements of the
frame and body.

BU1CK SALES GO
HIGH IN OCTOBER
Buick had the largest October
business since 1936, according to
R. A. Skinner, local Buick dealer,
who also says that the biggest min- ,
ufacturlng program in the history
of the company was recently launch
ed by the Buick division of General
Motors.
It involves greatly Increased pro
duction schedules throughout the
coming year and the unprecedented
output In November and December
of nearly 56.000 cars.
To meet production requirements i
Buick placed orders for more than
36.000 tons of steel In October, the i
largest single month's commitment
In many years and considerably in
excess of October purchases last ;
year.
"The next two months will see
the Buick plants In Flint operating
virtually at capacity and employ
ment at a peak for the year." Mr.
Skinner said.
"Unusually heavy demand for the
new models has necessitated further
upward revision of production sche
dules and a revamping of manu
facturing plans for the coming year,
looking to the output of some 6u.-
000 more cars than were orlglnallv
projected and a sales program con
templating a 50 percent incrense
over the 1938 season."
Since the low point In 1938 em
ployment, more than 9.000 men
have been returned to full time
work, Mr. Skinner said. He added
that Buick employment now Is
about at maximum. 1

head la about the size of a goose
egg, took "a turn for the worse"
about noon today and later they
expressed concern for the tiny child
who had been kept alive since Mon
day In a home-made apple-box In

ing after Betty Lou told how they
watched her thrash her limbs about
as a normal did would. They said
