SALISBURY.
Town Threatened with Bad Fire.
On Saturday morning a little before
six o'clock Salisbury, had a fire
which, if it had not been for the
prompt actien of the people, would
have swept and wiped out one of the
main business blocks of our town. |
The fire started in the heater room !
of the onera house building owned
by Mrs. Drucilla Hay. The floor un-|
der which the fire started is oceu- |
pied by James Dunn who conducts |
a restaurant. When the fire was first
noticed it had not yet burned thru
the first floor but the blaze came out
of a coal schute in the driveway be-
tween Dietz hotel and the opera |
after "the alarm was given that a |
large crowdwas on hand to fight fire, |
The fire engine was rushed to the |
scene of the fire and it was our first |
real test of the merits of our new |
fire engine of which so much differ- |
ence of opinion existed here. {
All Agree as to Worth of Fire Engine
Most all of the citizens are now
satisfied for there is no doubt that |
town now would present quite a dif- |
ferent appearance, for had the opera |
house burned ik<would have taken the
Hay Hotel, the Wilt building, owned |
by C. M. May and doubtless the Val- |
ley and others in turn.

ERE is another Overland
. Model. A brand new car
at a brand new price.
Many people prefer a car with
the advantages of the larger and
higher priced cars but that is
smaller, lighter and more eco-
nomical to run.
Model 75 is a comfortable,
family car with virtually all the
advantages of the very large cars
at a price which is well within
your reach.
The body is the latest full
streamline design with a one-
piece cowl.
It is handsomely finished in
solid black with bright nickel
and polished aluminum fittings.
Five adults can ride comfort-
ably.
The tires are four inch all
around because we beheve in the
the smaller size used on other
cars of similar specifications.
The motor is four-cylinder,
long stroke bloc type, having a
3%-inch bore and 5-inch stroke.
Horsepower is 20-25. It is of
the most modern design.
_ It has high-tension magneto
ignition. This is the kind used
on the most expensive cars.
The dlectricstaning and light-
ing system is one of the most
efficient on the market. Itiso
the two-unit type.
The electric switches are con-
veniently located on the steering
column. This is the same ar-
rangement used on the highest
priced cars.
It has the easy working Over-
land clutch which any woman
can operate.” The pedals are : :
adjustable for reach. The steer- gums All prices being f. o. b.
The rear springs are the fa-
mous cantilever type. These are
probably the easiest riding and
most shock absorbing springs
ever designed. With these
springs riding comfort is insured.
It has a one-man mohair top,
In short, there is everything
that makes this car up-to-date
and comparable with many cars
costing considerably more
money.
You will be delighted when
you see it. And when you ride
in it you'll know instantly that
this is your ideal of a modern
automobile at your idea of a
moderate price.
