"If we could pursue one in every ten to go out as a missionary the other nine would be hard at work for missions. Almost any ten members in the church could support a missionary." Mrs. Allen was followed by Mrs. Bailey, with the topic, "South America." She told of beautiful Rio de Janeiro of many of the manners and customs of the people of Buenos Aires. Rev.

Smith with a claim for a high gear record in transcontinental touring. He claims to have traveled 5000 miles west from Boston before he found a hill that required him to shift to intermediate gear with his Studebaker big-six. The hill that made him reach for the gear shift lever and spoil a perfect score was the approach to Yellowstone Park. As he came over the transcontinental divide he found a sharp turn near the summit that forced him to use low gear for fifty feet. He maintains that if he had known the road he could have made it in second and was sorely tempted to back up and take a better run at the turn nd prove he could but as he was really out for a touring trip instead of a stunt trip he just jotted down a little mark on the tablets of his memory of a real hill. Smith advises transcontinental motorists to get their road information from accredited clubs and says that it is better to choose your route between intermediate points after you arrive at the first point. The further you are from the road the less reliable the road information, was Smith's experience. Despite a heavy load of 4500 pounds on the tires of the Studebaker seven-passenger the party made good time while on the road. They made a number of side trips off the main highways and spent six weeks enroute, but Smith says that after being away from the main road for a day or more he usually overtook other motorists that he had been camping with five or six days previously as he was making so much better time than they were. Sometimes the car would travel 300 miles in a day and often 200 even on the desert. From Bunkerville to Las Vegas in Nevada, it is 100 miles and it usually consumes a day as the road is rough. Smith says that he made it in four hours, had lunch and then drove another 100 miles day to Goff station, near Needles. AFTER NINE YEARS LEADING DIRECTOR Nine years ago John M. Stahl left the stage to play extra parts in motion pictures, earning $5 a day—some days. Today he has his own organization the John M. Stahl Productions. The first production of this independent unit, which will release tru Associated First National Pictures, Inc., is "The Child Thod Gavest Me," which will be shown at the California Theatre, beginning tomorrow. Mr. Stahl's rapid rise represents a chain of days of hard work and deep stpdy, during which he mastered the technique of the studio. Altho his first parts were minor "bits," Mr. Stahl stopped at nothing in his zeal to learn the whys and wherefores of picture making, playing young men, old men, bearded, bald-headed, dashing, sedate, plutoatic and romantic men before he reached the point where his name was mentioned on the screen. He became a director more or less by accident. The big chance came while he was in Montreal, playing a fairly good role in a picture. The director had mysteriously disappeared following a hard night with John Barleycorn and the delay in production promised to be as indefinite as the overhead expense was threatening. The manager of the company handed the script to Mr. Stahl and asked him to do his best with it. After looking at a director's berth from afar with lensing eyes for such a length of time, he would have been thrown into a panic by its sudden descent upon him had it not been that he was too excited to realize that the entire responsibility for the picture had been thrown upon him. But his desire to attain success prompted him to accept the responsibility and he went ahead with the production. His success with this picture marked the beginning of the steady climb. MOTOR CAR THEFTS INCREASING DAILY "The theft of 13 Chevrolets since the first of November from the main streets of Anaheim has been an abrupt and forceful reminder of the alarming increase in the number which the motor car thief is monthly taking as his toll in So. Calif.," states Frank P. Taggart, local Chevrolet dealer. "While our police departments have been very successful in the recovery of stolen cars, and many excellent locks and theft signals have been devised, there is a woeful inability to apprehend the car thief, and the missing cars swell in numbers with each succeeding month. "Investigation shows that a large percentage of these thefts could be eliminated if the car owner would go to the trouble of taking a few extra precautions. Police departments feel that if care was exercised in selecting uparking space near the lights and also making certain that cars were locked and keys removed, the motoring public would be cooperating with them in a manner that would be appreciated. All luggage should be removed to places of safety and extra tires secured." When Chevrolet cars are stolen, we wish to aid the owner in every way possible to recover same, and ask that they notify us the minute the car is missed. In this way we will be able to supply the police with motor numbers and other identification marks without delay." What is the Difference in the New Improved Essex? Time and hard exacting service show the real difference in the way cars are built. The care exercised in building Essex cars is not lavished merely on exterior "selling points." It goes equally into parts you may never examine. You see and profit by that workmanship in long continued smoothness, efficiency and quietness of operation. The New Improved Essex retains all the qualities through which the old Essex established its noted records and won the esteem of owners. But in addition are refinements and improvements that will delight and surprise owners of the old Essex quite as much as non-owners.

It is a Greater Essex Than That Which Men Praised Thus Highly: "15,000 Miles—Going Strong" "My Essex Roadster that I bought fifteen month ago is still 'going strong.' I have driven it over fifteen thousand miles and simply marvel at its endurance, to say nothing of its speed, power and 'peppy' acceleration. You can certainly put me down as an ardent Essex 'fan.'" WANDA HAWLEY, Hollywood, Cal. Word 'Essex' Has New Meaning "Lexicographers will no doubt, in compiling future works on 'Words and Meanings,' inculcate into them a word with a new meaning: 'ESSEX — Meaning pride; conceit; boastful. Origin is from name of a motor car which was so marvelous in its action that the owners were loud in its praise and boastful of its performance." E. W. ATHERTON, The State Assurance Co., Lankershim, Cal. "I purchased my Essex August 23, 1919. I have used the car continually in the rent car service, over all kinds of mountain roads and through the oil fields. I have driven the car 50,-000 miles. I ran three original fabric tires 24,-000 miles and the fourth tire 28,000 miles." W. A. HALL, Bakersfield, Cal.
