SIGNIFICANCE OF sQUEEGEE

The queer little character who has
recently been appearing in advertising
under the name of Mr. Squeegee seat
ed on top of a Diamond Squeegee
Tread Tire with an umbrella over his
head to protect him from the rain,
has attracted a great deal of atten-
ton and has caused many people to
wonder where such a name as Squee-
gee could have originated.
store owners have long been accus-
toned to clean their windows with the
edge of a thin piece of rubber, insertd
in a zinc holder. and in some manner
or other this utensil became known
as a Squeegee, although the word
seems to have no particular signifi-
Cance.
When Diamond Tires were made
and il became necessary to provide a
name for the tread the word Squeegee
appeared to express the idea of the
tire makers exactly. The tread con-
sists of five bars OF rubber which cir
cumscribe the tread, the three in the
center being continuous and the two
on the outside broken at regular in
tervals, all botlnd together by cross
bars. The nonskid which this tread
gives results from a squeegee-like
working of these FIVE bars
When the car begins to skid the
outside bar wipes away the mud and
'ii'iiS NUN as d Sdueeseo tdheS the
water from a wet window, and per-
mits the other bars to grip tight to the
pavement. In fact the principle is
exactly that of a "Squeegee" and the
tread has been we'll named. Mr.. Squee-
gee was originated to typify the Squee-
gee tread in advertising and to tell
car owners about the virtues which his
tread holds out for them, especially
in wot weather. Whenever he speaks
1t is raining, for he always has his
umbrella up whenever he is seen.

Beauty of Landscape
Around Chalmers Factory

Ida NJ. Tarbell. well-known au-
thority on American labor conditions
and special writer for the American
Magazine. visited the Chalmers Motor
Company the other day. She took an
inspection tour of the factory under
the direction of Chalmers official
The primary reason for Miss Tar
bells visit was the accumulation of
data preparatory to a series of articles
on safety precautions in automobile
plants. She pronounced the conditions
existing throughout the Chalmers fac
tory to be ideal. Commenting upon
the findings of her tour, she said: 81
was especially impressed by the ex-
quisite landscape gardening which sets
off the Chalmers plant. 1t is one Of
the most beautiful factory sites in the
whole country.
Quite frequently in my travels I
find a classic facade often conceals a
gloomy and unhealthful interior. But
| find that the Chalmers plant is light
and airy throughout. Sunshine and
ozone, YOU know, are two very neces-
sary and at the same time two very
rare compliments of the modern
factory
Il find that every safeguard is taken
against accident. The machines which
menace human safety are well muz-
zled."
At the termination of her visit at
the factory Miss Tarbell was taken
for a spin about Detroit in Chalmers
Master Six.

Convicts to Be Used on
Roads of Massachusetts,

Massachusetts has Just passed an act
providing for the improvement and
repair of highways by convict labor.
The act provides that county COM
missioners may make arrangements
with the Massachusetts Highway Com
mission, or with the officials of a city
or town, to work prisoners on high
way or with private owner to i'm
prove waste land by means of such
prison labor.
The National Committee on Prisons
and Prison Labor. while approving
most thoroughly of the road work,
takes exception to the latter part of
this act. There is ample work for all
prisoners. both state and county, in
state and county work, and under no
circumstances should they be employed
for the beenfit of private individuals,
not even though the work be under
state control. This is only another
form of the contract system which the
committee has found unjustifiable
from every standpoint.
The Massachusetts statute contains
the excellent provision, however, that
the work shall be under the super
vision of the state highway authorities.
but the prisoners shall remain under
control of the prison officials. This
makes possible the proper organization
of the work and promises success in
the undertaking.
The development OF the road work
should afford such opportunity to the
prisoners to labor to good effect that
the National Committee looks for an
amendment to the statute at the next
session and the abolition in Massa-
chusetts of every form of contract
convict labor.

OldsmobiIe to Put Out
New Models For 1916

In the course of the next week or
two the Olds Motor Works will an
nounce its new models for 1916.
Details are being kept secret, as
secrecy is an important part of the
advertising and sales program the
company has outlined for the new
cars.
Not a word-yet," said c. V. Nc
Guire, advertising manager. You
will hear enough before the month is
over. Full details will be announced
simultaneously in all parts of the coun-
try. IF we gave out anything at the
present time, it would, in a measure,
tend to kill the effectiveness of our
first announcements"
1t is believed in local automobile
circles that whatever the new Olds
will be. it will be a lower price than
the model AZ, which was put out last
April at 1880 and later reduced to
S1.2S5.
Up to last year the Olds had been in
the high priced field. This company
was among the first of the high price
car manufacturers to put out a model
at a radical reduction and the expert
ment proved to be highly successful.
The small car materially increased
Olds sales without cutting into the
business of the model SIS, at S2.975.

New York Telephone Co.
Buys 220 New Indians

Constituting the largest single COM
mercial motorcycle order ever placed
the recent purchase of 220 Indian mo-
torcycles by the New York Telephone
Company is a remarkable tribute to
the efficiency of the Fasoline cycle in
telephone service" said II. Y. Ross
manager of the local Indian agency al
the West End Electric and Cycle
Company.
"It is no secret that the motor
cycle has permanently established it.
self as an essential unit of the tele-
phone companies plant departments
and the sales of machines to telephone
companies have been steadily increas-
ing.
Another very significant phase OF
this record breaking contract is the
returning prosperity it forecasts. Not
only is it a desirable piece of business
landed by the Hendee Manufacturing
Company, solely on the merit of su-
perior product. but it indicates a
loosening of the purse strings of great
corporations for new equipment.
The constant high efficiency which
the public demands of the telephone
services forces the company to subject
it's motorcycle trouble squad to eX-
tremely hard usage in all weathers in
locating and remedying service inter
ruptions which occur Unexpectedly
over a large territory.
Having been a large user of mo-
torcycles for several years. the New
York Telephone Company has com
piled very elaborate and accurate
maintenance records. which show that
its motorcycles are being operated al
less than l cent per mile. IT there
fore was in a most excellent position
to appraise values and its selection
of the Indian exclusively constitutes
another recommendation by big busi-
ness"

Sees Assurance of a
Big Year For Touring

Automobile touring is going to at
tain new high-water mark this
year says o. c. Friend, general sales
manager for the Mitchell-Lewis Motor
Company of Racine, Wisconsin, ma
kers of the Mitchell car.
More wealthy persons and more
persons of moderate means are GO
ing to take their vacations in motor
cars than ever before since the power
car came into existence.
There are two main reasons that
will bring this about.
In the first place, the war in Eu-
rope is going to keep in this country a
large number of persons. who in nor
NAL times would have spent the vaca-
ton months abroad.
THE second. and still more potent
reason, is that the coming of the mod
ern popular priced car has enor-
mously augmented the number OF
those who can afford automobile tour
ing.
by this method of using the auto
mobile for the greater part of the
summer pleasure uses. many persons
actually effect an economy with their
cars. 1t becomes far less of a finan-
cial problem to maintain an automo-
bile at an outlay of, say, $40 a week
If by its use the family saves 500 that
otherwise would have gone for pleas
ure.
III the popular car OIL TO-
day the motorist can get a luxury and
comfort undreamed of a few years
ago. Take the Mitchell Light Six for
example. There is nothing this car
will not do. Yet, despite its low cost,
1t is not a skimped cheapened pro-
duction. Its wheel base is 126 inches
It is thus a big little car. 1t Will carry
six persons TO any place. at any time,
or under any conditions. The six
cylinders assure absolute flexibility.
1T has all the appearance and class
of the best car built A low rakish eff
feet is gained by fitting the rear axle
springs under the axle instead of
above it. This results in lowering the
body five inches.
The Light Six is wonderful hill
climber There is nothing in the way
of an ascent that presents any diff
culties to it. A man can drive a
Mitchell car all day and never shift
his gears at all. This is something
much appreciated. especially as most
popular-priced machines are sold TO
men who do their own driving
"Our Light Four showed what II
could do in touring last Fall when Il
stock model with sealed bonnet COW
cred 1918 miles in thirty days. an
average of ESQ miles daily for thirty
consecutive days.
1T is because of performances like
this by cars possible to persons Of
moderate means that all the joys of
motoring are going to be opened this
year TO a larger class than ever be-
fore"

THE ONLY PAVED BRIDGE THAT
CROSSES THE SJTSOUEHANNA

The Market street bridge is the only
asphalt roadway crossing the Susque-
hanna river from the Chesapeake bay
to the New York State line. Visiting
motorists are surprised at this unusual
feature, for paved bridges are rare
indeed.
1t requires strong structure in the
first place to support such n roadway
and in this respect the construction of
the Market street bridge is of such a
character that 1t permits of this su-
perior style of roadway. 1t is an
added expense, too but 1t makes this
thoroughfare across the river doubly
attra ctive to all-motorists as we'll as
those who drive.-Advertisem

RESOLUTION OF RESPECT.

Since God has, in His wisdom, seen
fit to call to greater service our
