Naturally few of these men reach, or even approach the attainment of so high an aim. Most of them give up the attempt almost before a start has been made, for the task is a huge one. Perhaps nowhere in the west has there been so near an approach to factory methods and equipment, together with factory designed and built machinery and factory-trained mechanics as in the new home of Reo—the big four-story building recently acquired by the Reo Motor Company of California, and formerly occupied by Chevrolet. The new building, equipment and facilities as now offered California owners is on a similar scale to those provided by the Reo branches in New York, Chicago and San Francisco, according to Manager Byron C. Foy. The 63,000 square feet of floor space in the four-story building have been scientifically laid out for the most efficient handling of Reo business in its varied aspects. The ground floor, facing on Hope street, with its big glass windows and tiled floor, has been set aside as salesrooms for the selling of passenger cars and speedwagons. The used car department, with entrance on Twelfth street, is almost as commodious as the new car department, while in addition there is a ground floor service department in connection where minor adjustments are made and a diagnosis made in each case of the car's "ailment" as 'the owner drives in the door. The parts department with its $200,000 stock of parts, has been established to care for the needs, not only of individual owners of Los Angeles and vicinity but of the dealers handling Reo in all the territory under the Los Angeles branch. Access to this department is by a separate door on the Twelfth street side. According to Manager Foy this stock of parts covers all models of the Reo from the ancient "one-lunger" of the vintage of 1904, to the latest Series "B" line, only a few weeks out of the Lansing factory.

Sewing was enjoyed during the evening with the articles made, to be given to the GROVER ALEXANDER MAKES HOME-RUN IN STUDEBAKER COUPE When Grover Cleveland Alexander finished up the season with the Chicago Cubs he felt the great urge to get back to California where he could chase a little white pill around the golf courses troll for big fish in the bay of Avalon and otherwise enjoy the life of a ball player who has no ball to play for several months. So Grover bought himself a car down in Nebraska drove it a few hundred miles to get the new kinks worked out, sort of warming-up process, and then with wife, brother and a woman friend of Mrs. Alexander started for the home plate in California. The trip in the special-six Studebaker coupe was much like loafing around the diamond after the ball had soared over the back fence. They had some snow through Kansas until they reached first base sailed along steadily to second, bumped over a few rough spots in New Mexico while making third and then loafed into California. Only one exciting incident was reported and that was when Alexander was sprinting up a long snow covered hill at which he had taken a hard swing only to find that the road broke sharply with a curve at the very summic. There was one breathhold moment while the car skidded and swerved on the snow covered summit of a hundred foot hill that threatened disaster, but the turn was negotiated and the run continued with but little delay. The party started out with overcoats and wraps in pleaty but even in the snow covered country they found them to be extra baggage so they were stored in the roomy baggage compartment in the rear of the body. Ample warmth and comfort was afforded by closing the glass panel and opening the warm air heater in the floor. The four seats were roomy enough to make the trip delightful as there was no over-crowding. Alexander declares that he bought the closed type of car in deference to his wife but that now that he has made a trip of 1,900 miles across country in ten days he is just as strong a locomotive To Win Riches Startles Romance LONDON, Dec. 17—A story of the startling discovery by the Rome police of the murdered bodies of an Italian millionairress, Madame Cogo, and his adopted daughter, fully dressed and sitting in chairs in her dining room was related in a dispatch today to the Central News Agency from its Rome correspondent. According to the dispatch, the police made their discovery as a result of testimony given them by Madame Cogo's servant girl, who asserted three sons of Madame Cogo's brother broke into the house, stifled the two men in their beds, dressed their bodies in their best clothes, including jewels placed them in the chairs in sitting postures and then set fire to the roof to distract suspicion. The servant girl says the dispatch told the police she thought they took this drastic action for fear their auction would leave her fortune to the adoptee daughter. The three men and their father have been arrested, the diary patch added. U.S. Asks United Action As To 'New' Government WASHINGTON, Dec. 17—The administration is in favor of a definition understanding between the United States and the Pan-American governments for concerted action with regard to the recognition of new Latin American governments created through revolutions, it was indicated at the White House late yesterday. The administration will probably seek some such understanding with regard to the recognition of the new government of Guatemala. Wife's Divorce Suit Charges Hasty Exit LOS ANGELES Dec. 17—According to the divorce suit of Mrs. Meta O. Taylor, his wife, Leslie E. Taylor believed in being prepared for emergencies, always kept his grip packed so he could leave at a moment's notice. One day he grabbed the bag and left his wife, she says, in the complaint filed yesterday, charging desertion. The Taylors were married in 1918 and separated October 14 last. PHILATHEA CLASS HONOR MEMBER Mrs. Esther Parker was the honored guest at a surprise party given at the home of Mrs. Rena Wheeler, by the Philathea Class of the Methodist Sunday school, last night. Sewing was enjoyed during the evening with the articles made, to be given to the needy and charitable homes, for Christmas. Late in the night refreshments were served. The guests were Mrs. Esther Parker, Miss Lily Johnson, Mrs. Helen Pico, Mrs. Edward Anderson, Mrs. F. T. Edmiston, Mrs. C. E. Hertzler, Mrs Wilson, Dr. Alice Hunn, Miss Louise Acosta and Miss Rose Wheeler who assisted her mother in the serving. At this time a Christmas tree was enjoyed with each guest being given a gift. MRS. THOMAS HOLDS SCHOOL OF INSTRUCTION Mrs. Marsh Thomas, district deputy grand matron of the Eastern Star, is in Anaheim today. A school of instruction was held by her for the local lodge and was well attended by members and visiting members. DODGE MOTOR CAR NOW EQUIPPED WITH RADIO SET It does not require an ultra-imaginative person to realize the possibilities of police cars, fire engines, or emergency cars with a simple wireless apparatus which will send instantly messages from headquarters. To Edward Dallin, Harvard graduate and radio experimenter, goes the credit for a novel wireless device mounted on a Dodge Brothers car. While Dallin's equipment is for his own experimental purposes, it would be readily adaptable to purposes like those mentioned. The set, as invented, is simplicity itself. Two broom handles and a length of lamp cord form the antennae, a wooden box originally intended to contain milk chocolate, is the cabinet for the sending apparatus, and an ordinary spark coil supplies plate voltage for the vacuum tube transmitter. With this set Mr. Dallin can travel about in his Dodge Brothers car and in the vicinity of his home at Quincy Point, Mass., receives messages from points as far distant as Key eWst, Fla., and Savannah, Ga. His sending range averages 10 miles, and he is working now on a much more effective sending apparatus. Dallin says it is a queer sensation to be driving comfortably along in his car and suddenly have the buzz-buzz of the box beside him begin to take the snow covered country they found in keeping with the Yuletide season. Those in charge of the meeting were Mrs. Bertha Lacey and Mrs. C. A. Griggs. Ample warmth and comfort was afforded by closing the glass panel and opening the warm air heater in the floor. The four seats were roomy enough to make the trip delightful as there was no over-crowding. Alexander declares that he bought the closed type of car in deference to his wife but that now that he has made a trip of 1,900 miles across country in ten days he is just as strong a booster for the coupe type as the feminine members of the party. This strong reversal of opinion as to the open type car being best suited for red-blooded men but confirms the statement made some time ago by Harry D. Riley, distributor of Studebaker cars for Northern Orange County, who states that if the motoring public knew by actual experience how much greater comfort they would get in their travels if they used the closed instead of the open type cars that manufacturers would be flooded with orders for coupes and sedans. Reports that during November the delivery of closed Studebaker was in the ratio of one to four of open type cars and that the demand for closed cars is rapidly increasing.

"The Boston News Bureau may officially state that the Oldsmobile division of our corporation is in a healthy condition, with its business stabilized and sales increasing in the face of the coming winter.
