GOOD BUSINESS
 IN 1914

That this year will show vast im- provement in automobile sales is the opinion of Bradley Saunders, president of the Saunders Motor company, the Ala
 bama agency of the Hudson car a few days ago. MT. Saunders stated that the
 public was educated to the automobile and that the demand at the present time was taxing the capacity of the huge fac tories all over the country.
 Years Of annual shows. wherein the makers have done their best to present
 their wares in an attractive manner. have educated the people--have made them
 motor wise. They buy cars mora intel ligently than it was possible to buy sev-
 eral years ago. They look for the hidden values in the cars. They are sufficiently equipped with technical details to avoid
 the machines that do not tell their value upon close inspection.
 Furthermore it has become almost an axiom with the buying public that one of the biggest assets the maker has is the stability. reliability and dependa- , bllity of his name. The financial stand ing of great automobile manufa curing organization now is like the hall-mar rlx that a first-class jeweler places upon his output. The maker has learned to value that hall-mark. to accept it as the stamp of approval of the discriminating pub lie and is jealous of his good name. He cannot fail to use honesty and fair deal ing in his advertising-he knows that the
 public has been educated to the whole

 The maker understands full we'll that

 much of the bubble and lue sky material of the old days. It is. no longer a get rlch-quick scheme. It is so highly spe- cialized that it has taken rank as the third in the list of important industries
 III America. It would be folly for the manufacturer with a huge investment to close his eyes to the fact that Q eondi- ton, not theory, ccnfronts him. He must give the greatest value for the mini- mum of cost and the organization that can pay it's bills-discount them to eff
 rect economes-and take advantage of cther economies that come from a cc,i-

CADILLAC WILL
 NOT MARKET A SIX

Hubert A. Drennen of the Cadillac Motor Car company in recent inter view corrects an erroneous impress sion which seems to have prevailed in some quarters with regard to the fu- ture plans and policies of the Cadillac company. He said
 We could scarcely expect to con- trol the very considerable volume of mouth to mouth advertising which the Cadillac receives. It would keep us busy f we were to attempt to con- firm or deny the many and varied re- ports that are constantly being circu- lated concerning the Cadillac But when misunderstanding or miscon- ception of the methods. plans or pol icies of the Cadillac company is liable to creep into this sort of gratuitous publicity, we consider it a duty we owe inc public as we'll as ourselves to correct whatever inaccuracies may un- wittingly be reported.
 We have experimented, 1t is true, with engines of six cylinders; in fact, we have built a number of such cars In the past four years. We have test ed them to the utmost and We have compared them, point by point. with some of the most highly regarded sixes' which we had bought for just this purpose. It may be interesting to note, in this connection. that we did

 At one time or another our experi- mental division has built automobile engines of almost every conceiva ble type and size We made two cylinder cars some years ago, and 1t was ru- mored that we were to market such a car-but we never did. We have also made three cylinder cars and. it was rumored that we were to mark ct them-but we nev-s {fis And in the same way the rumor that Ne contem- plate the marketing of a Cadillac six mental division, which we believe to be the most thorough in the entire industry, is ever active. No expense is ever spared in testing, investigat- ing and experimenting no stone is left unturned in our efforts to dis cover and provide that which will dem onstrate itself to be best in principle and in practice.
 Our tests, Investigations. experi- ments and comparisons have demon- strated conclusively, that our four cyl inder engine affords the highest degree of all around efficiency obainable, coupled with greatest economy of op- eration and maintenance. Furthermore our tests have proved that such an en- zine as the preesnt Cadillac power plant, in connection with a properly designed two-speed axle, produces not only an extraordinary range of oper- ating flexibility but an extraordinary degree of operating and maintenance economy and marvelously luxurious riding qualities, while reducing friction and consequent vibration almost to the vanishing point.
 With this Knowledge to guide us, we certainly have not the slightest idea of departing from our present policy

USE OF BEES IN WAR
Excel Wireless Telegraph and Homing
 Pigeons as Messengers

! News that will be of interest to all army men was received here in copy of La Gazette de Hollande for Jan La Gazette de Hollande, which is pub lfshed at The Hague. has discovered a secret long cherished in the war de- partment-the use of bees as messen- gers.
 No longer will the aide de camp spur his staggering horse through shot and shell to carry the message to the front Instead he will don his gloves and mask and. going to the portable bee hive back of headquarters. seize one of the faithful little insects and send the we'll trained messenger through the air.
 Whoever possesses a receiving out fit can read the secrets of the wire less.' says La Gazette de tHollande i; "cne can cut the wires of the ordi- nary telegraph; the pigeon does not always escape the bullet. Therefore ether means have been searched for Tn America the general staff dreams Of using. as disptach bearer the bee.
 'rhe bee, like the homing pigeon, suided by his marvellous instinct. re- turns to the hive from wherever he may be liberated. Tiny dispatches Which can be deciphered with the mag nilying glass, can be attached to it's breast
 "But something better still has been found By an ingenious process the rings of the tiny insect are sensitized anc by means of microscopic photog- raphy the message is imprinted on the wing, doing away with all extra weight
 And there you are says La Ga 2ette de Ilollande. tiny aeroplanes of war"
 The secret is out, but all is not lost La Gazette de Hollande has not dis covered the wonderful process by which to dispose of the fireflies that and up-to date enemy would send to ruin the sensitized wings of the trained bees.
 The details. of course, cannot be di- vulged Suffice it to say that as soon as an enemys firefly reaches the dark hive where the bees are waiting to have their wings photographed it's presence is made known by the action of the metal selenium. which Is sensi- tive to light, and the alarm is given to a corps of trained dragon flies, who speedily make away with the intruder.

 "Buy s car,' Is the motto this sea- son. Everyone who has the price Is doing it. Sometimes the sales are on Eords, at other times on Pfcrce-Ar- rows hut there Is something doing all the time in the local automobile shops, There Is even large outlook for cleo tries this season.
 And it Is just the beginning Of the auto season now is the time to dispose of the old last years ear. The man who expects to sell his old ear and bu- a new one should write down one fact In bright red ink and underline it, and that is that the sooner he au- thOrtzes some reliable dealer to list the old car the more likely he is to get a satisfactory price for it.
 Buyers or secondhand cars are as a rule careful buyers. In order to find the best proposition they do considerable looking around and consequently shor carly. There are more inquiries for secondhand cars in February and March than in other months of the year.
