fIAWeC; Makes a "Hit"
With the Ladies
Dismiss instantly from your mind the thought
that a woman should not drive a gasoline car.
Maybe you have thought it unwise and unsafe to trust
to her a car that you would drive.
The electrically controlled Haynes has done away with
that prejudice forever. 1
You can drive the electrically conquered Haynes within
90 minutes after you first see it.
We mean just that —without exception—
Maybe you have driven a car before—maybe you
haven't—
It doesn't make a bit of difference—
Electricity makes it possible for you to drive with mas
ter-hand the powerful 65 H. P. Haynes.
Electricity—and the Vulcan Electric Gear Shift
You hold the complete mastery of
the Haynes in a single set of push but*
\lnlAudKl tons —one button for each speed;—
If you fail to see the electrically con
>W JB! trolled Haynes you miss the biggest
feature in automobile improvements
made in recent years!

LITTLE HIIPMOBIIES
ASTOUNDTHEMLD
Most of Contests Won Were
Against Professionals in High
Powered Cars
"Private Hupmobilo owners," said
13. C. Emrick In charge of the local
Hupmoblle agency al 120 Market
street, "have hung up many records
with their car In 1913. The principal
among these, of course, are the per
fect scores which wore awarded two
Hupinobllen in the 1913 Glldden Tour.
The cars were driven by two brothers,
twins by the way, Clarence nud War
ren Munzer, of Minneapolis, and their
thrilling conquest of the gumbo roads,
mountain trails and alkali prairies
through North Dakota and Montana,
is now Glldden history.
"Last April another Hupmoblle
driven by E. W. Johnson, of Fresno,
Cal., clipped 8 hours and 5 minutes
from the speed record between Los I
Anseles and San Francisco. The Hup- I
mobile made the distance in tho re
markable time of 14 hours flat, aver- |
aging approximately 4 0 miles an hour. I
This was no special Hupmoblle, but a 1
privately owned car and the result)
was a distinct, surpriso to the factory.
|ln South Africa a Hupmoblle blazed I
the trail throughout the darkest of i
that wild country. Mr. Nordlinger, of
Port Elizabeth, has just completed a
remarkable tour of over 20,000 odd
miles, which took him into the remot
est parts of the Union. At the com
pletion of this tour Mr. Nordlinger had
a sworn statement drawn up to the
effect that no mechanical parts were;
changed In the Hupmobilo in this j
wonderful tour.
"The Hupmobilo added a great
prize to Its list of achievements In I
11913 at St. Petersburg, Russia. Last
June a Hupmoblle was awarded ft
beautiful loving cup on points of
merit In the 200-mile Grand Prix held
I under the auspices of the Imperial i
Automobile Club. Europe has seen)
many remarkable performances of the
Hupmoblle during 1913, principally
among which are tho two which I
have named and also the sealed bon
net non-stop contest held by the
Vienna Automobile Club of Vienna
last October. Three Hupmoblles fin
ished one, two, three out of 45 start
ers, a wonderful accomplishment in
the face of the great odds which the
cars overcame. Again at Rome in the
hill-climbing contpst held under tho
auspices of the ltoyal Italian Auto
mobile Club, a "32" Hupmoblle was
awarded a gold medal for perfect per
formance on the long grind from
Parma to Barceto.
"Only a year ago over the frozen
Finnish Gulf between St. Petersburg
and Kronstadt, S. Ochs, of St. Peters
burg, piloted a Hupmobilo to second
prize in a tour of 200 miles, the first
prize being taken by a 70-horsepower
car. Last April at Stockholm, Sweden,
in the eighth Swedish winter relia
bility run, conducted by the Royal
Automobile Club, a Hupmoblle was
first to finish. The tour covered 731
miles over many hills thickly coated
with ice, which made going very dif
ficult.
"These are just a few of the most
Important events entered by privately
owned Hupmobiles which I can now
recall. These are remarkable show
ings in which we at flie factory feel
Justly proud, inasmuch as the entries
are all amateur and have competed
against professional racers. This
makes the victory a more noteworthy
tribute to the remarkable qualities
and endurance abilities of the Hup
moblle."

W. F. GROVE
The Pullman Motor Car Company
looks forward to an exceptionally
prosperous season, says W. F. Grove,
the factory representative in charge
of the Pullman exhibit at the local
show. The export business is ahead
of any precedihg season, shipments
being made to the Argentine .Repub
' lie, France and Russia. Ls week
fifty Pullman cars were ser.t to Mex
j lco. Mr. Grove reports the facto •»
jto be running full capacity to meet
their orders and several departments
are working until 10 o'clock at night
to keep up with orders.
Mr. Grove represented the Pullman
Company at the New York show
where many favorable comments were
heard regarding the beauty lines of
the Pullman this season. One repre
sentative for one of the largest auto
mobile concerns in the county said it
was one of the most beautiful de
signed cars he had ever seen. In addi
tion to the appearance of the car the
Pullman is famed for its motor, and
this year Introduces the Vulcan elec
tric gearshift, a device that is rapidly
becoming in vogue on the better grade
cars. With its wire wheels, stream
line body and one-man top the car
commands attention wherever seen.
Speaking of the Pullman line for
this season, Mr.. Grove said: "For
eleven years the Pullman Company
has been building motor cars that
have been noted for their mechanical I
excellence. The company invites a I
critical comparison with the design,
of any other car. Everything known
to art and science has been exhausted '
in the building of the 1914 Pullman
models. The Pullman, besides beauty,
possesses abundant hill climbing abili
ties and easy riding qualities. The
new light "Six" is in a class of ears
that has come iuto vogue recently—
| moderate in price combined witli the
most advanced ideas in design. The
Pullman Company has concentrated
all its energies on this model and one
of the best ways to test this car la to
ride in it."
Among the Pullman sales of Interest
in this community, Mr. Grove reports
the sale of a Pullman to Edgar S.
Marks, clothing merchant of this city.
This model is a 0-46 with wire wheels,
electric gearshift and the most ap
proved refinements of the new mod
els.
NOVELTY DRESSER BOXES
Small imitation-ivory trinket boxes
in a variety of shapes have Just been
introduced in connection with art
needlework lines, says the Dry Goods I
Economist. The covers of these boxes i
are perforated for embroidering, deli
cately colored silks being selected. The
work is done in satin and in seed
stitch.

GARFORO TRUCKS FOR
HEAVY DUTY WORK
Made in Two to Ten Ton Capacity
With Tractors Up to
Twelve Tons
"Few people realize the possibilities
of the motor truck until confronted by
j figures compiled from actual opera
tion under careful observation," says
I John N. Willys, president of the Gar
ford Company, of Elyria, Ohio, and
maker of the famous Oarford line of
power transportation vehicles. "Since
this is true, the report made to us
by one of the largest contracting firms
in the United States, which Is now
operating 13 Garfords in a variety of
contracting jobs, is very interesting.
According to this report, one of their
six-ton Garfords traveled a total of
3,997 miles, carrying an aggregate
load of 2,302 tons In 106 working
days, from July 25 to Nov. 30, 1913.
And the cost per ton mile showed a
saving of more than one-half over
figures formerly kept on horse trans
portation methods.
"An average of more than 87 miles
per day was thus made, or about 9.5
miles per trip for 420 trips. A total
of 1,504 gallons of gasoline was con
sumed, or an average consumption of
.37 gallons per mile. The gasoline
cost per mile averaged only 4.1 cents, <
an astonishingly low figure when com
pared with the present high cost of '
feed for horses. i
"Basing their computations on the
total cost of operating and mainte- i
nance, the firm arrived at the follow
ing interesting result. With a capao- <

ity load of G. 5 tons, the cost per ton
mile for hauling sand, gravel, stone
and other materials used, was only
6.10 cents for the entire time. This is
a saving ,of more than 100 per cent
over the best records ever made in
horse-and-waeron transortation han
dling the same class of materials.
"In commenting on their ex
tremely valuable and interesting re
port, officials of the contracting com
pany call attention to the fact that
the Garford is the one motor truck
most suitable for efficient and eco
nomical transportation in their busi
ness. They note that the bodies are
hung between the side springs, thus
permitting a low loading platform
and the utmost facility in loading and
unloading. They also recommend the
four-speed transmission, which pro
vides a speed for all road and grade
conditions, resulting in a maximum
of service with a minimum of undue
exertion." One of these trucks are
in the Redmond exhibit at the show.
JEWEL-SET BRAID PINS
According to the Dry Goods Econo
mist closely following their introduc
tion in Paris, a large demand has
been created in this country for the
demi-blonde plain amber, shell and
transparent composition hair orna
ments paved with colored stones.
Amethysts, emeralds, rubies, eap
phires, topazes, etc., are well repre
sented. Sets of combs and pins paved
with colored stones are also conspicu
ous, and many sizes -nd shapes of
braid pins are being shown.
BUTTERFLY HAIR ORNAMENTS
The vogue for butterflies as a dress
ornamentation is most apparent-at the
present time in hair ornaments, says
the Dry Goods Economist. The but
terflies are attched to bone hairpins,
by means of which they are readily
placed at any angle in the coiffure.
Diversity characterizes the materials
employed in the construction of these
I ornaments, the newest being mudo
J of chenille in natural colorings.
Elaborate butterflies made of com
binations of pearl beads and rhine
st ones combined with a white aigrette
aro employed for more formal wear.
Effective black and white combina
tions are likewise shown. In this casa
the butterfly is made of black net and
is studded with jot and pearl beads
and rhinestones.
FLORAL. BANDS AM) IIAT PIN'S
According to the Dry Goods Econo
mist, floral millinery trimmings aro
steadily mounting in favor. Clusters
(if roses arranged so as to form huge
pompons are especially smart. Com
pact bands of small flowers arc used
across plaques, at tlie edge of brims
and midway up crowns.
Hatpins made of small flowers aro
being shown by some of the leading
houses. By means of theso placed at
some clever angle It is possible to
transform a tailored hat Into a dress
hat.
