1914 PULLMAN
IS FINE CAR
VIII Be Principal Feature of
the Van Deman & VAIN
right Display.

The principal feature of the dis
play of Pullman cars in booths rs to
so of Van Deman & wainwright at the
Auto Show will be the new 1914 model
of the popular cars. The new model
is a distinct departure from the
other models of the same car. 1t is
called the Pullman Light Six, "
model SAG. Its features are a novel
and artistic stream line body, the
Vulcan electric gear shift, wire
wheels, 100 inch wheel base, the pop
ular one-man top and the regular
equipment of the other Pullman cars.
This car can develop 46 horse power.
The new car is entirely controlled
from the steering wheel 1t has a
simple electric control and is self
starter. In this new model Pullman
car, perfection in automobile con-
struction has almost been attained.
1t is built on exceptionally graceful
lines and every curve and sweep is
tremendously worked out. Every
thing known to the art and science
in automobile building has been car
ried out in the construction of this
model
In addition to the above model other
well-known types of Pullman cars win
be on view at the show. Many other
models of the same car contain spe-
cial features in themselves, SO as to
suit the most exacting buyer.

ANDERSON A FAVORITE
OF RACE FANS TODAY

Beginning with first in the Pot
latch Trophy race at Tacoma July g..
Cooper was returned a winner in five
consecutive contests between that
date and September 0. when he won
two great races in one day, the Co
roma free-for-all, 800 miles and the
Corona 301-450 class race, $50 miles,
setting up new mark of 1903 miles
per houh, the former record being
ZAP miles per hour
Gil Anderson has been dangerous
factor in every important contest
since May 80 1910. when he drove
the first Stutz car ever built to elev-
enth place in the original 500-mile
race on the Indianapolis Speedway
against field of twenty -seven
starters. But Anderson has been fol-
lowed by a jinx that remained on the
job regularly until GIL won the Elgln
record for cars in the 30t-450 class at
Elgin last August.
Racing fans declare Anderson Is
due for n sensational return to win
ming form and expect TO see a repe-
tition of the Elgin victory on the
Santa Monica course today and Mon
day.
At any rate it will be an interest
ing battle for honors between two
drivers u ulTeclly opposite types
with the odds even, for each drives a
sturdy Stutz."
The Stutz racing team will be in
the charge Of President Harry c.
Stutz, of the Indianapolis concern.
The Stutz party. consisting of Mr..
Stutz. r. e. Maypole, of Chicago: Gil
Anderson and Tom Rooney, arrived
at the course February II and began
tuning the cars for the coming
contests. They were Joined at Los
Angeles by Earl Cooper, whose Stutz
racer was entered by the Walter NJ,
Brown Company, of Los Angeles.

Few stop to realize the possibili-
ties of pleasurable travel. Railroad
trains, even Pullmans. are noisy and
dirty. Boats are slow and restricted
Automobiles, as usually understood,
are uncomfortable, firing to operate
and to ride in. Cost and tire trouble
cause nearly everyone to travel by
other means.
But would there be a better or more
pleasurable means of travel than by
automobile If the automobile were
comfortable and easy to operate; If
the cost were low and troubles neglig-
ible; if tire troubles were rare tires
simply wearing out like rails or
roads2
All this is possible. The progress
in automobile construction has been
such that comfort can be obtained
so that one can drive long distances.
even $50 miles a day, and day after
day. Operation can be so simple and
easy that driving is safe and not
tiresome Reliability. even in tires,
can be obtained by sound engineering
design. Tires have an elastic limit
beyond which it is not safe to work
them. Cars can be so designed that
tires are not stressed beyond this
elastic limit, and thus they will give
the same factor of reliability as other
parts of the car.
Such a car must not be a feature
ear as cars go today. 1t must be
built for a greater purpose, to make
travel a pleasure and a success. This
greater purpose, worked on for years,
has produced a car distinctly differ
emit. Featureless, in that no one point
of the car stands out prominent, it is
notable in the result accomplished
a safe, sane, pleasurable means of
travel.
An economical car is a greater ne
cesslty today than ever before. Econ
omy, meaning the lowest possible cost
during the use of the ear, takes into
account the purchase price, the cost
of tires, cost of depreciation in the
chassis, In the engine and in the
body, and cost for operation. Light
weight Is the big factor in economy.
The "details of construction which
enter into car construction should
provide for the use of the car under
all road and climatic conditions.
Riding comfort must be carefully con-
sidered. Rightly must be avoid
ed everywhere. Vibrations, jolts
and jounces, even over rough
roads, must be eliminated. Easy
control meant safety. Light weight
makes a car easy to operate
and easy TO steer. This is obvious be-
cause the less a car weighs the easier
it controls.
An automobile cannot be too good
The question is to get one that Is
good, the purchase price and opera
ton cost of which are reasonable. A
car designed for safety, strength and
Is the car that will give
the most satisfaction the greatest
number of days in the year at the

F. M. DENNIS TO HANDLE
PULLMAN CAR EXHIBIT

Frederick NJ. Dennis, the popular
representative of the Pullman palace
cars, will be in charge Of the exhibit
Of Van Deman & wainwright, local
agents for the Pullman cars, at the
armory show. Mr.. Dennis is well
known In local automobile circles and
has a multitude of friends.
1t was in a Pullman car that Mr..
Dennis and a party of newspaper
men were at the head of the long
procession of several thousand auto
mobiles and other vehicles which
formally opened the Essex Hudson
Lincoln Highway, extending from this
city TO Jersey City. If that run was
fair sample of the powers of the
Pullman car, the producers of the
Pullman have much to be proud of.
Mr. Dennis will be in charge of a
corps of demonstrators at the Van
Deman & wainwright booths. There
Is no doubt that he and his assistants
will have their hands full demon
strating the merits of the cars they
represent.

One cannot refrain from comment
ing upon the great value of this vol
ume of roads travel, with local,
county, State and national ramifica-
lions. 1t all means a greater appreci-
alton of the wants of one another,
wherein the man from the East recog-
nizes the man from the West as of
his own kind, while the Northerner
and Southerner, with their periodic
visits, lose the disintegrating feeling
of sectionalism.
With our own country plentifully
blessed with scenic attractions, equal,
if not excelling, what can be found
abroad, it is certainty that the day
is not far distant, owing to the inn
petus of the good road movement,
when the numerous Americans who
now tour in Europe will investigate
and enjoy the wonders of their own
country, and, incidentally, scatter an
expenditure of money which will as
sist materially in a distributed pros
perity that shall include further ac-
CELEBRATION to the highways movement.
The magnitude of the task at times
is appalling, but 1t Is a positive fact
that from semi-chaotic conditions
definite method of procedure is being
evolved. The A. A. A. national head
quarters in New York city have
served in great degree as a clearing
house for the whole country, and it is
worthy of note that four-flfths of this
has to do with the
roads question and the correlated
question of touring information.
An important move made by the A.
A. A. was the establishment of addi-
tional headquarters at Washington,
in order to be in thorough touch with
the national legislative situation.

Elizabeth and other surrounding
towns. Headquarters will be estab-
| lished in the smoking room at the
north end of the main floor.
Something absolutely novel in the
way of musical features has been ar
ranged. 1t will be orchestral in
character and will be furnished by
the Bostonia Women's Orchestra I'M
der the leadership of Miss Belle Y.
Renfrew, who viii also have charge
OF the concerts that are to be given
at Asbury Park during the coming
summer. Miss Mae Sutton, of New
York, a soprano soloist who is well
known In metropolitan circles, will
appear at both the afternoon and
evening sessions. The program,
which will be different for each day,
has been selected with great care
and varied taste with a liberal
sprinkling of popular classics with
songs and musical hits of the day.
The entertainment committee in
making its selection of the music
were compelled to decide between
orchestral and band concerts.
The decorations, which will be in
gold and white, of the Louis XVI.
period, will surpass anything that
has been seen at previous shows,
which is saying a great deal, for
Newark has gained an enviable repu-
tation for having the most beautiful
of any of the leading motoring dis
plays. AS a fact. many of the minor
shows held throughout the country
have copied their decorating schemes
from those first made successful
here The piece de resistance Of this
years show viii be an immense cleo
trical fountain, located in the cen
ter of the main floor. Varicolored
electric lights will be reflected on
the FLASHING waters, while gold fish
will disport themselves in the palm
fringed pool below.
The Newark show is one of the few
affairs of that kind that have not
been marred by complaints, and much
of their success in this respect has
been due to the fact that the manager
and his assistants, as we'll as the
members of the various committees
handling the affair. are all expert
enced showmen. The general man
ager of the show is Horace a. Bon
nell, who has been chief executive at
all of the local shows ever since they
were worthy of the name. Mr.. Bon
nell is a national figure in automo-
bling circles, and the local dealers
are particularly fortunate in having
man of his calibre at the helm.
Much of the detail work of the show
is handled by the assistant manager,
Claude e. Holgate. executive man
ager of the New Jersey Automobile
Trade Association, and long promi-
nent in Jerseys motoring circles.

mittees are:
