LUMBER ARRIVES FORBIIiBMI ° I H. L. DeLisle, Manager Will Establish Office Here. In Syracuse In an interview with H. S. DeLisle, manager of the Wawasee Amusement Company, Monday ; morning, it was learned that desk room has been secured at the office ; of Butt & Xanders and Mr. DeLisle will make his headquarters there while in this vicinity. A force of men is already at the lake preparing to erect the eight-room ; cottage on the lots recently pur- ( chased from Milton Woods. These ( lots are located between the Lake- ( side Grocery and the Lake View ] Hotel. < A car-load of lumber was ex- , pected the middle of the week and f Mr. DeLisle hopes to have work on , the boat, “Wawasee” started by j the last of this week. The keel, ( ribs, etc., will be made of white j oak and the planking will be of two-inch cypress. The manager explained the boat service that his company intends to inaugrate between Syracuse and the “big” lake. They will operate I small boats but according to ar- 1 rangements this will not interfere with other public launches. Pas- < sengers using these small boats from the Syracuse pier will pay 35 L cents. This will entitle them to < r the ride to the company’s pier and return and will also include admission to the large boat which will pick them up on its regular trips. According to present plans the “Wawasee” will make three trips a day. There will be five piers around the lake at which it will pick up passengers. The first round will be started at twoo clock and end at five; the second will be made at seven, and the third at nine, the third trip ending at eleven o’clock. Moving pictures will be shown from seven to nine and dancing from nine to eleven. South Shore Walter Weaver and family took a ride in their canoe Sunday. Mr. DeLilse had Dr. Rodgers launch out.

SNOW Al PANAMA PACIHC EXPOSITION I I Visitors Have Snowball Fight That Is A Novelty In California —A thousand or more visitors at the Panama Pacific Exposition were given the pleasure of a good old fashioned down east snowball ( fight on the Exposition grounds last Sunday when a new Buick C— ( 4 truck arrived with a ton of fleecy . snow from the summit of Mt. Hamilton seventy-four -miles south of San Francisco. Frank Murry and C. A. McGee of j the Howard Automobile Company • made the trip to the mountain top , in exactly four hours, an average j of 18.5 miles per hour up the grade. The return trip was made in 3% hours, an average of 21.- ' miles per hour. A trip of 148 miles in 7)4 hours up a mountain side and over ah kinds of roads is not an unusua performance for a Buick truck. Murry and McGee say — “We fel well paid for our trouble by th* way the visitors enjoyed that snow ball fight.” Madamus Suit Filed Orlando F. Gerard, trustee of Tip pecanoe township, and Nathaniel J Kline, both of North Webster, a e the defendants in a mandamus sui filed by Luther Strom beck, also a resident of North Webster. The suit is brought as a result of a dispute over the office of supervisor. Kline was elected at the November election but according to the complaint he failed to qualify, demand his certificate of election or tendei bond until long after the time fixed by law. Milo Strombeck, then trustee, appointed the plaintiff to fill the vacancy and to serve until a successor was elected and had qual - ified. When the new trustee, 0 F. Gerard, took office it is claimed that he did not i ecognize the plaintiff as supervisor; and that he served notice, without stipulating cause of the plaintiff’s discharge from office. It is claimed that Ger- • ard has accepted the bond filed by Kline and the court is asked to order the trustee to recognize the plaintiff as supervisor.

Why do auto owners come to you and tell you that the famous valve-in-the-head Buick machine gives more power with the same size motor than the other kind of motor? i Why is the guarantee on Buick cars more liberal than on any other car selling at several hundred dollars more. Why is it that some of the Buick competitors have tried to get the Buick agency from us. Why is it thal Buick cars have longer life than some others and they upkeep so much less? Why is it that the last five hundred mile reliability contest held in New York that there were only Jhree perfect scores awarded and they were .Buick, Buick, Buick? Why is it that in the last fuel economy contest that was held in New York the Buick won first, second, third and fourth prizes. Why is that the last hill climb contest held in western Pennsylvania was won by the nine hundred and seventy-five dollar Buick, when it completed against other make cars, some selling at three thousand dollars. , Why is it that the city of Boston selected twenty for Buicks for their fire department against all competitors. Why is it that the Delco Electric Co., who sell their electric appliances to numerous automobile . manufacturers bought twenty-six Buicks for the use of their officials. Why is it that the man who buys a buick machine, after he has owned cars of other makes, selling at more money, is such a Buick booster. Why is it that the man who boosts Buick cars cars does so voluntarily and not for a rake-off in his influence over you is the result of you buying a Buick car, as is the case in some other makes. Why is it that some dealers must give you a discount when you buy acar, if their cars are as good as a Buick, as some dealers claim. Why is it that the tree that bears the best fruit is that you find the most clubs under? Why is it that the purchaser of an automobile should consider very seriously before purchasing any assembled car? Why is it that the purchaser of a machine should have a well established manufacturer back of him and also local dealers who have she necessary equipment to take care of him after buying.,

Why did the Buick in one single year, in hill climbs and races, in competition with all makes and prices of cars, win more prizes than any one manu- e facturer ever dreamed of winning sn his entire automobile experience? Why does the fastest racing car in the world use u a valve in-the-head motor? Why don’t our campetitors use a valve in-the H head motor? Ask them. Their answers will be many Why was the Buick Motor Company factory the only large factory in the country that did not curtail its production for 1914 during the winter months? Why does the Buick Motor Company have 'the largest automobile factory in the world. Why does a six cylinder valve-in-in-the-head Buick travel 17 or more miles on a gallon of gasoline? Why do not some of our competitors take up the Buick Motor Company challenge issued in the Saturday Evening Post to produce a Buick car that was ever worn out or the parts could not be supplied from stock by jhe Buick Motor Companies? Why don’t our competitors take up the Buick Motor Company challenge to produce as many cars that have run 25000, 50,000, 75,000, 100,000 and 125,000 miles? Why do you try to convince your self that there are automobiles being sold for less money that are “just as good” as Buicks? Don,t you think the manufacturer is foolish enough to sell them for less, or s do you think he is in business for his health? Ask yourself and our competitors this question. Cutting prices is no indication of quality. Why do you buy an automobile whose engine has proven itself to consume more gasoline than a valve-in-the head Buick? Why don’t you investigate these proven facts? Any authority will substantiate toem. Why don’t other dealers write tee same contract we do when selling a car. If you don’t get it you you are the loser. This you should investigate fully You can have a sample copy from us any time you apply for it. Why don’t you permit us to prove the above facts [if our competitots cannot] and then you will fully realize whdt is meant by us when we say Why Don’t You Buy A Buick? Ar.
