Increase Noted In Dodge Truck Sales Says Lester Taylor Dodge Job-Rated truck sales are soaring in Medford, Jack son county, the state of Oregon and straight across the country, according to Les Taylor, owner of Pierce Allen Motor company. Medford Dodge truck, Dodge and Plymouth dealer, who re ports a 107 percent Increase in Dodge truck sales for the first half of 1941 compared with the first six months of 1940. While the increase in percent age of units sold is phenomenal it is still far below the gain in dollar volume, Taylor an nounces. This is due, he states, to increasing demand for larger units, one and a half and two ton and up, particuarly In the increasingly popular Dodge Dcisel units, several of which are operating in the Medford area. "The reason why we are way out in front in third place in sales, ahead of all but the lower priced trucks, is due to four things," Taylor stated yesterday. First. Dodge trucks are quality merchandise second, they last longer; third. Dodge trucks are priced with the lowest; fourth, Pierce-Allen day and night truck service, rated to keep trucks moving keep the mon the Job." Taylor believes that now is the time to place orders for trucks. "Our experience in the last world war reminds us that present prices cannot last but are likely to advance beyond present low levels. We believe every prospective truck user should buy quality merchandise that will last for years and years and should buy now," he concludes. Fishermen Form Co-Op Petit De Grat, N. S.

Pullman got the Idea for his sleeping cars while prospecting in the state. The oft-repeated story that the idea was inspired by bunks chained to the walls of miners', cabins has been making the rounds for years, even appear ing in state history books. But here are the facts, and the first revelation is surprising Pullman didn't even invent the Pullman. America's first sleeping cars had been operated in Pennsylvania as early as 1838 and Pullman took his first ride in one in 1853 when he was 22. , He rode 60 miles from Buf falo to WesUield, N. Y., but the discomforts were numerous and the young man, so the authenti cated story goes, wondered whether a car could not be built that would serve for both day and night travel and fur nish some comforts. Five years elapsed before he began to work on the sleeping car and, while he never claimed the invention of the sleeping car, "he did produce more com "OH, ANNE, wkat LOVELY COLORS!"

His enterprise was abandoned temporarily when the Civil war broke out and the government needed all railroad cars for transporting troops. , It was not until then that Pullman came to Colorado along with many others attracted by the stories of fabulous fortunes to be made in gold and silver. Although Pullman made money by selling supplies to the miners in addition to work ing claims and buying ore, he did not make a fortune, as the Colorado legend goes. He re turned east after a few years in Colorado with more than $20,000, which included some of his original capital. On returning to Chicago, he took up his sleeping car ven ture and put virtually all his savings into the first ail-Pull-! man-built car, the Pioneer. Cae Mall Tribune want ads. POISON OAK?

The Greenwich town board of estimate and taxation has ap proved a $3,885 appropriation for the purchase of 50 additional pistols; two transportable steel boats; 100 folding cots with mattresses, sheets, pillows, and other equipment Its emergency defense plan was worked out in cooperation with the Connecticut state po lice. The pistols would be hand ed out to members of fire-police patrols, or to "any other group of special officers" in period! of serious emergency. The two 14-foot steel boats are complete with trailers that can be attached to automobiles so the boats could be speeded to any lake or pond In town where they might be required. The 100 folding cots are to be stored away until needed. After a survey of available space it was decided to set up these beds in the Y. M. C. A., and in schools in case of a shortage of beds in the hospital. Town selectmen are not an ticipating any immediate war time use for this equipment but feel that it would be invaluable in event of any disaster, such as flood, hurricane, or fire.
