WISE CHOICE FOR
COUNTY CHAIRMAN.
In the selection of Charles Troxell of
Ebensburg as Republican County chair-
man by the five nominees of the Re-
publican party last Saturday, no better
choice could have been made.
Mr. Troxell, who had years and years
of experiences as a Republican war-
horse, will handle the office in the
manner it justifies. The Republican
party will need offer no apologies for
the choice made.
Mr. Troxell has been long identified
with the Republican party in Cambria
county, he has served as Prothontary,
as a chief clerk to the County Com-
missioners, and is at present in the |
County Controller’s office. ;
Despite Johnstown newspaper stories |
to the contrary, made for political ef- |
fect only, absolute harmony prevails |
among all five of the Republican |
weminees of the party in the choice |
made. |
Of Course, plans will be perfected
at once for the fall campaign, which
will result in the usual Republican
sweep for the County ticket. The pri-
mary has settled all questions as to
who will be chosen at the November
election in Cambria County, providing
every Republican turns out at the polls
on general election day and votes the |
straight Republican ticket.
if primary election
Predictions are that the Democrats
| will endeavor to have every voter of
N
heir faith go to the polls on November
t
[ 5th. The Republicans will have a glori-
ous victory, of course, but they will
have it only by fighting the common
enemy with the same weapons. EVERY
| REPUBLICAN VOTER should consider
the election of first importance. Let no
Republican absent himself or herself
from the polls on election day. EVERY
LAST REPUBLICAN should turn out |
and VOTE THE STRAIGHT REPUB-
| LICAN ICKET.
| AUTOMOBILES MUST
UNDERGO OFFICIAL TESTS.
If you are an automobile owner your
car must undergo an official test be-
tween now and the 15th of November.
It is a requirement of the Pennsylvania
State Highway Department and it is
a mighty good requirement.
Owners of all cars have been notified
that their cars must be inspected as
to lights, brakes and other equipment.
The state law requires a check up of
headlights as to proper focus and
candlepower of bulbs, an inspection of
brakes, steering gear, mirrors, wind-
shield wipers, location of license plates
and other details.
After a machine has been examined
and passed as meeting the requirements
for safety in its operation a windshield
sticker certifying that the car has been
inspected is placed on the car. There |
are several official testing stations in
Patton and many local owners already
have complied with the law. After
November 15th all cars without the
official inspection sticker on the wind-
shield may be stopped on the high- |
ways by properly constituted officials
and required to submit to inspection |
before proceeding.
Right now is the time to have your
car inspected.
AIRPLANES ARE
| TAKING THEIR TOLL.
Although mankind is making rapid |
strides in conquering the air, it is
by no means perfected. On the firs;
page of the Philadelphia Inquirer last
Monday; seven airplanes fatalities were
chronicled, and the fact comes home
all the more to us when we note that |
| one of these deaths occurred at Ebens-
burg, and this one over in Blair Coun-
ty.
Of course, we must realize that the
air travel experiment is still in its
infancy. Nevertheless, it seems to us
that many of the deaths occurring
happen because the aviators take need-
less chances, either in stunt flying, or
in flying planes not in the best of
condition.
But the air will sooner or later be
completely conquered. Twenty ycars
ago most folks were afraid to ride in
an automobile. Today nearly every
family owns a car or two, ride in them
think nothing of it, and regard them
as an absclute necessity.
Will we regard the airplanes in the
same manner twenty years hence?
Automobiles, too, are taking a tre-
mendous toll of lives yearly. But with
| this fact must be given the thought
| that when one considers the vast num-
| ber of cars on the highways, the ac-
cidents are but of small percentage.

of any one of a hundred cars—and compare
the vitally important details of chassis de-
sign and construction—you would find
Buick so outstandingly superior in all
phases of fine car engineering that you
would almost inevitably make Buick your
choice. Here is what you would see in this
famous chassis:
Buick’s great new Valve-in-Head engine—
developing 99 horsepower in the 124- and
132-inch models, and 80% horsepower in the
118-inch models. Unapproached in sturdiness,
all-round performance—ability, reliability and
economy as well.
Buick’s new Controlled Servo Enclosed Mechanical
Brakes—providing smooth, positive,
silent braking, with minimum pedal pressure.
And—because fully protected against dust, dirt
and water—operating at maximum efficiency in
any weather.
Buick’s new frictionless steering gear and new Road
Shock Eliminator—twin advancements intro-
duced by Buick. The Buick wheel offering
effortless control throughout its entire turning
range—and the new Road Shock Eliminator
assuring complete freedom from annoying
jolts and jars. :
Po inl? 1 .
Luick’s new, longer rear springs, and new
rebound, and providing a degree of riding ease
without parallel anywhere.
And, finally, such established Buick superiorities
as the famous double-drop frame of toughest
steel . . . the massive side and cross members
reinforced at points of stress to insure greatest
long life . . . the celebrated torque tube drive,
Buick multiple-disc clutch, self-lubricating
differential, and numerous other features.
When the list of Buick’s chassis features—
entirely aside from the irresistible appeal of
Buick’s new Fisher Bodies—reads like a
roll-call of all that is soundest and best in
fine car engineering and when, in
addition, you can buy a Buick for as little
as $1225, f. o. b. factory . . . what wonder
that all comparisons lead to Buick! What
wonder that more than 2,000,000 people
have invested their money in Buicks—and
that from two to five times as many are
purchasing this new Buick as any other
automobile priced above $1200!
