Beautiful Horse Sold to Lone Ranger Program

Ann Arbor, Mar. 8—Mrs. Bertha Lyons, co-owner of Mohogany Farms, has announced the sale of Cherokee Chieftain, a beautiful white stallion, to the sponsors of the Lone Ranger program, for a price running well into four figures. He will be known as "Silver" hereafter.

Cherokee Chieftain has been dashing in and out of Ann Arbor on shopping tours with his mistress, and made his most glamorous appearance in this city in the last Armistice Day parade. He will shortly begin a personal appearance tour of the country with his new master, the first stop being in New York. He will be in Chicago in April, and later in the month Silver and the Lone Ranger will make their debut in Detroit's Olympia.
