1918 DETROIT ELECTRIC
HAS MANY FEATURES
New Vehicle Is Bound to Appeal to
the Lover Of the Silent
Vehicle.

The 1918 Detroit electric, announce
ment of which is made today, has many
new features which are bound to appeal
to the lover of the silent vehicle of the
present day. The line for next year in
cludes several models of various types.
One Of the principal features is the
clear vision. which enables the operator
of the car to see considerable distance
ahead, whether the car contains four
or five passengers. There are no panels
anywhere to. obstruct the view. The
roofs of the new models are made of one
solid sheet of aluminium. which assures
against leaks and cracks. at the same
time affording beautiful finish.
Not only has aluminium been used in
the roof but the window sashes are of
one piece of the same material thus pre-
conditions. The Detroit electric hOri-
zontal control lever, which regulates five
speeds forward and reverse by one SIM
pie movement. is built into the side of
the car. When in use 1t is lowered to a
natural position parallel with the steer
ing lever. On leaving the car. both levers
are raised upright fiat against the side
of the car out of the way.
The Detroit electric direct shaft driven
''chainless" power plant Is another fea-
ture. 1t receives the term ''chainless
shaft driven because of the entire alb
nism- The power is transmitted from the
motor to the rear axle with less waste
than any other type of drive. The cars
are SO designed and wired throughout
as to secure the utmost efficiency in the
use of either Edison or steel batteries.
The models include several types of
broughams. roadsters, victorias, coupes
and limousines.

Business Qualifications.

Good goods, right prices, prompt serv-
ice. These three things are necessary to
the complete success of any business, =
says a western motor car official.
Every business man knows that in
these days of keen competition he must
keep abreast of the market in the quail
ity of merchandise he offers He must
also fix his prices judiciously. Up to this
point his competitor is wise and alert
as he is.
''How, then. is he to obtain an advantage
except as far as his personal popularity
will give it? Througi service, of course.
Service means polite attention TO the GUS
toner while trading and prompt delivery
after the sale. There is no one feature
of good service that so pleaseS the aver
age purchaser as to be sure the package
will be home as promised. Before motor
delivery was adopted by enterprising mer-
chants disappointments inevitably oc-
CURED, but motor wagons and trucks
cover so much more ground and so much
more quickly that delivery troubles are
reduced to a minimum"

State Road System.

Following the lead of Massachusetts
and its subsequent adoption by New
York, New Jersey Is now providing for a
state system which embraces its through
roads. State Road Commissioner Stevens
has proceeded with the work until now
some 800 miles Of road have been selected
to be known hereafter as state roads. and
to be taken care of by the state itself.
Opinion is general that this form Of pro-
cedure will ultimately be adopted in every
state in the Union. There is so a pro-
nounced sentiment for an Interstate sys-
tenn of national roads when the federal
government itself enters energetically in
to the highways situation, which is as
suming such countrywide import that
any further delay In giving 1t attention
will not be accepted without protest on
the part OF both the man who lives in the
country. and the man who travels afar
these days owing to improved roads,.

The town OF Broken Arrow, Okla,
obtained its name from similar In.
dian legend In very beautiful part
Of the prairies, near the Arkansas
river, lived many tribes OF Indians. So
many differences arose among these
tribes that soon they were broken up
into hostile tribes and war was de-
clared. AZ the end OF fierce and
sanguinary couniot the chiefs of the
various tribes met together on con.
spleuous mound near the present
town Of Broken Arrow, Here their
quarrels were composed aud in cele-
hratlon OF the event their arrows were
broken. This action was their sign
OF peace. And so the name Broken
Arrow.
The weekly chieftain. [volume] (Vinita, Craig County, Okla.) 1905-1913, 1912-08-09

The odd town name of Newkirk,
Okla, came about in this way. The
government first established a town
called Kirk. about a mile and q half
north OF the present site Of Newkirk.
The town OF Kirk was named for a
man Of the name Of Kirk. who was
in the employ OF the government at
that time. When the town OF Kirk
was moved 10 the new site it was
given the new name, Newkirk.
