touring car that is the equal of any
$500 car, Of any other make. on the market.
Ever since last July, we have been
working tooth and nail endeavoring to
supply the heavy demand. II was utterly
impossible to fll the great volume OF
rush" orders that kept pouring in, yet
for months, we shipped on the average of
one hundred cars day. The steady in
hux OF orders was perpetual.
The dealers and public alike, from one
end of the country to the other, tried every
conceivable means to force extra orders
through our great Toledo factories. They
burned the telegraph and telephone wires
in frantic effort to urge and press rush
orders.
Now the situation is changed.
The thousands Of our anxious friends
who have had ''60' on order for two
months or more and waited patiently, can
hare their car at once.
And this is due to our greatly increased
plants. .a .u.. .. ..
We can now turn out $50 cars a day.

were completed and after two solid months
OF night and day work we are pleased
and relieved to announce the arrival of a

W. Morgan OF San Francisco figures
that he has been given the Diamond tires
on his Franklin car ten and one-half mil
lion chances to blow out In the last three
years and half. but they are still run
ming and in good condition.
Mr.. Morgan bases his figures on 1000
miles Of European touring and 1850
miles Of touring through California. He
multiplies the total OF $500 miles by SIS,
the number Of revolutions which the
wheel makes per mile. and gets 10. 900. 900
revolutions. Each revolution he claims
has offered an opportunity for the tire to
blow out.
Mr.. Morgan attributes his freedom from
blow outs largely to the easy riding and
light weight Of his car and the fact that
the full-elliptic springs greatly reduce
the pounding action of road shocks.

first survivors Of the Titanic were
lifted aboard.
1t was only a stroke OF luck that the
Carpathia got the Titanic's call for
help. Harold Thomas Gotham, the Car
pethfa's wireless operator, had been on

to listen In on the instrument for a
while.
When he had got all he wanted there
was still batch Of messages coming
through for the Titanic. and Gotham
thought to help out his brother oper-
ator by taking these ana relaying them
to him later. After he had taken soma
he called for the Titanic. asking:
DO you know. have a batch of
messages for you?"
In reply came the Titanic's call for
help: :" Come at once. We've struck q
berg. It's &C. @. D. old man."
Then came the Titanic's location, lat
itude 41:46 north and longitude sofa
west. Gotham rushed to Capt. Rostron,
Of the Carpathia with the news.
The Captain ordered the Carpathia
turned about Immediately. Then he
picked out his position and that Of
the Titanic on the chart, and made her
out about f:sty-eight miles away. He
sent for the engineer. and told him to,
call another watch Of stokers and to
make all speed possible. He ordered
the steam and hot water shut off from
the various parts OF his ship that
every ounce Of energy the engines
could develop might be devoted to driv-
ing the rescue ship on her way.
All this time the Carpathia was drivL
ing ahead at better than fifteen miles
an hour. Capt. Rsstron knew that he
