In the face of this vioâ€" lence the farmers carry on and build the world‘s first pipe line across rivers and over mountains to the refinery at Bayonne, N. J. The story of that heroic struggle was taken almost directly, incident by incident, from the romantic anâ€" nals of the Tide Water Associated Oil Company whose ploneers built this first pipe line to the sea. That original pipe line laid at so great cost is still in existence today and still is bearing the priceless Pennâ€" sylvania crude across the Alle ghenies to Tide Water‘s Bayonne plant where it is refined into Veedol motor oil and Tydol gaso 4:00 p.m. â€" Ribbons will be awarded to winners.

Greén Bay Road Vogue Cleaners & Linoleums Best Quality at Substantial Savings Carpets ME A TS Cost of Owning "Family Car" Less Than in Early Days The cost of owning and operating a "family car" is less than half of what it was back in the early part of the century, according to George Barton, chief engineer of the Chiâ€" cago Motor club. The lower purchase price of the current vehicle and the tremendous reduction in tire prices are two of the outstanding reasons for the reâ€" duced prices of .today, Mr. Barton declared. ‘"In the first place, the 1909 moâ€" torist had to pay $2,500 for his car, whereas the motorist today ‘can buy a comparable vehicle new for about $800 to $1,000. Here is how some of the 1909 costs compare with toâ€" day‘s motoring costs: ‘"In a 1909 issue of the American Motorist, official publication of the American Automobile association," Mr, Barton said, "we find a comâ€" pleteâ€"statement of costs kept by one of the early ‘motoring suburbanâ€" ites,‘ who checked up to find how much it cost him to move away from the city. ' amvunced to $oou, while today in the first year it amounts to between $260 and $300.. Gasoline cost the 1909 motorist $150 for $1,000 galâ€" lons, whéreas the cost reported by today‘s motorist is $121 for 650 galâ€" lons. The gasoline figures are comâ€" plicated by the difference in price in different regions, the advent of the gasoline tax, and the higher mileage realized by today‘s car.
