THE BISMARCK TRIBUNE, MO DAY, AUGUST 11, 1980 8 BISMARCK FOLKS INVITED. 10 TEST DRIVING ABILITY Capital Chevrolet Company !s Staging Economy Contest; All Asked to Enter Bismarck residents will have an op- portunity to test their driving skill and win a prize at the same time in a contest announced today by the Capital Chevrolet company. The contest is one to determine who can run a Chevrolet six-cylinder ma- chine farthest on a quart of gasoline. A stock-model car has been equipped with a one-quart mason jar, mounted outside the hood so as to be plainly visible from the driver's seat. It will be filled with gasoline and each contestant will be invited to see how far he can run the machine before the gasoline supply is exhausted. Ali contestants will start from the Capital Chevrolet company’s office at 102 Broadway and will travel over a fixed route. An observer will accom- pany each contestant and make a record of the mileage. ‘Thirty dollars in cash will be dis- tributed to the three highest scorers. The winner will get $15, the second place winner $10 and third place win- ner $5. ‘The contest begins immediately and all persons are invited to register early so that a time for making the trial can be allotted to them. The time for making the trials will be be- tween 10 a. m. and 10 p. m., daily with no intermission for lunch. It is ex- pected that many contestants will select the lunch hour for their trials. A cordial invitation is extended to the public to participate in the con- test. To enter one needs only to reg- ister, in person or by telephone, at ‘he Capital Chevrolet company’s show- room. A day and hour for the trial run will be assigned them at that time. In announcing the contest, Forrest M. Davis of the Capital Chevrolet company said: “While the many hundreds of Chevrolet Six owners in this com- munity have definite and satisfactory proof of the remarkable economy of the car, we are anxious to have the public at large become more familiar with the fact that, even with a high- powered six-cylinder motor, with the smoothness, speed and acceleration inherent in that type of power plant, it is possible, because of expert de~ sign and engineering, to secure an economy of operation equal to that of any car on the market today. “We believe that the contestants will be astonished at the gasoliné mileage secured with this 50 horse- power six-cylinder motor. Of course, the cost of gasoline is but one of the items in the operation of a car, but investigation will prove that complete operating costs on the 1930 Chevrolet Six are amazingly low, as low as any today. “We extend a hearty invitation to Notice to Stomach Sufferers You will learn something to your advantage if you will call at Hall's Drug store. They have the exclusive agency dis- tribution in Bismarck for Pfunder’s Stomach Tablets and complete information without obligation may be secured.

She went into a Logan Square con- fectionery and ordered a pineapple soda. Unnoticed, she mixed 20 grains’ of poison with the soda, took several swallows, walked across the street and collapsed in a park. Mrs. Anna Graves and Mrs. Hope Dwelly, managers of the shop, roticed the abandoned soda and thought Miss Orlikowski walked out because it was spoiled. They each took a swallow, pronounced it satisfactory and forgot about the episode. A few minutes later, both became ill and collapsed. A physician ad- ministered an antidote and neither was in a serious condition today. Miss Orlinkowski, rushed to a hos- pital, was in a critical condition. No (motive for her attempt could be ad- vanced by her father, a policeman. Tony Will Have His Soup and in Plenty Pittsburgh, Aug. 11—(4#)—The Go- shas are going to have soup today And it won't be because Tony Go- sha likes soup, nor because the Mrs. doesn't, but because the law has said they must. It’s over two weeks now since Mr.| Gosha had his teeth pulled, and every day Mrs. Gosha has had meat with no soup. The whole thing came out when the Goshas were taken before @ magistrate for throwing furaiture at each other. So the magistrate rearranged the Gosha menu, ordering the Mrs. to NYE STATES GROCER NORRIS DIDN'T ENTER FIGHT IN GOOD FAITH North Dakota Senator Declares He Will Show Nebraskan Was | Under Influence of Others ) Washington, Aug. 11.—()—Chair- man Nye of the senate campaign funds committee said. in a statement today he expected to prove that in- fluence was brought to bear on George W. Norris, grocery clerk, ‘to file as a candidate in Nebraska; against Senator George W. No:ris. The clerk’s attempt to contest against Norris was barred by the courts on the ground that he filed too late. Senator Norris had intend- ed to run as an independent in the event the grocery man was allowed to enter the Republican senatorial pri- mary, asserting identical names on the ballot would cause hopeless con- fusion. Nye said his committee would re- sume hearings in Nebraska Sept. 1. The Nebraska primary is tomorrow, and Senator Norris is a candidate for the Republican nomination. Nye’s statement took notice of charges that his previous investiga- tion of the candidacy’ of the second George W. Norris was a result of Pfejudice. “The charges of prejudice are baseless,” Nye said, “and the commit- tee will be able as a result of the scheduled hearings to demonstrate it is now true that George W. Norris of Brokeg Bow was not a candidate as a result of his own, choosing and will be able to prove’ others were in- cook soup and plenty of it. | beginnin, Tomarrow | | 4 1929 Chevrolet Roadster only 8,000 miles, perfect mechanicalscondition, Price for quick sale $475 1928 Onkland Coupe, finished in dark green duco, completely overhauled, looks and $565.00 runs like new | Rasy O.

Why You Should Give — + Some Thought to North Dakota - Lignite — _' Statements From the 11th Annual Report of the Coal Mine Inspection Department | The U. S. Geological Survey-estimates the amount.of coal in North Dakota as 697,000,000,000 tons. Lignite carries ‘a heating value of 6600-7200 B. T. U. A ton of lignite coal will nearly equal 2-3 of a ton of eastern coal. North Dakota lignite is now used almost exclusively for domestic heating and for large power and steam plants. It is also successfully used for the burning of brick for which its sootless qualities and relatively low cost make it’adaptable. This is due to the fact that large lignite operators have carried on an extensive education program shqwing that with proper grates in domestic heating plants, and stokers and grate equipment for large steam and power plants, lignite ‘ with entire satisfaction, but also with a very noticeable saving. ‘ After a study of the report, it will readily be seen that the demand for lignite is growing rapidly as , the public becomes more and more familiar with its use. : Mad 1908 ...ccecyeecececseees 320,742TONS 1918 ......00c.000000+6. 813,000 TONS 1913 ....000000---.ss+++ 495,320 TONS 1929 od ' || Wachter Transfer.

This is one of the largest factors contributing to home employment of labor and a large igem in paying the state’s bills by means of taxes. By means of tonnage hauled over railroads results in a ten- dency towards lower freight rates for all communities. For each dollar put into circulation by the coal mining industry the local merchants get their ‘share direct in the way of labor necessary to handle the coal at the towns at which it is distributed. For example, in Bismarck alone, 75 families are dependent on the lignite industry for their living. ; can be used not only | alternately safe and in grave danger. f iw 6 f ft ' ar b sf a id x » Be v7
