There is more struth than poe

sentiment can not be ignored nor
minimized. Nor is it denlabl'
that many stalwarts of the Louis

the plane of discomfort, which Is
almost akin to revolt against
the system of bossism which has
prevailed in this State for .
quarter of century. There was
time when Democrats who OPP

readily controlled on being al
armed over the old cry OF negro
domination.
Fortunately this "old gag" is
no longer effective nor will white
supremacy ever again be in peril

true that there prevails through

,, Of enthusiasm, which is an index
of an actual predisposition Of the
Louisiana Democracy towards the

the Legislatures action:
THE -suffragists of Pennsylya-
mia are entirely satisfied with the de-
cision of the Legislature to submit wo-
man suffrage to the voters.
Having made careful survey OF
the State during the last two years and
having studied the national tendency
toward economy, efficiency and conser-
walton, illustrated by the rejection of
woman suffrage by eleven States since
November 1, 1914, we have no fear for
the result in November. after which wo-
men will be able to resume their normal

the Grand PriX in France. used valve
in-head motor cars. The leading
builders of motors for aeroplanes,
submarines and marine engines un-
hesitatingly adopt valve-in-h mo-
tors, although they cost more to
build. Buick cars still hold the twen-
ty and fifty-mile worlds speed re-
cords and more A. A. A. official speed
records than any car but one. Buick
cars have won the most recent reli-
ability tests-the 1914 three thousand
mile tour of France, the most stren-
uous test ever staged by France; the
latest New York reliability run, the
most strenuous test from the stand
point of technical examinations to
which automobiles have ever been
subjected in this country, and the
fourth Wisconsin economy reliability
tour, repeating a previous victory in
this run and averaging 24.S miles
per gallon of gasoline.
Buick valve-in-head motors have
won more than 500 hill climbing,
speed, reliability, economy and en-
durance contests, moer than any other
make, regardless of price.

Gear Ratio of Hudson
Is Nearest Perfection

Chief Engineer G. G.. Tehn, of the
Hudson likes to take on technical
topics. But he has a way of investing
them with a simplicity and clearness
that makes these dry subjects attrac-
tive to any motor car enthusiast. Most
buyers know very little on the fea-
ture of gear ratio, and yet it is vital.
Mr.. Behn says, to real motor car sat
isfaction.
a twenty horse power truck motor
can pull a huge load up a pretty stiff
grade, and do it at a fair speed. If
does it, however. very noisily and with
excessive vibration. Some people think
that they would like to have low
power motor of this kind in their car.
and have an idea that they would
then gain fuel economy, and vet have
plenty of power. Mr.. Behn shows
how this idea is a fallacy because the
motor would require to turn over at
such a tremendous rate in order TO
gain driving wheel speed, that it
would not be satisfactory for a pleas
ure car.
on the other hand, motor that is
geared too high does not produce sat
isfaction because ii must of necessity
have very powerful motor in order
TO overcome the high gear ratio.
There is an ideal in this, as in all
automobile designing moderate
gear ratio makes the ideal car for a
pleasure car. 1t gives excellent power
on hills and under difficult road con-
ditions, and yet it is sufficiently high
so that the motor operates pleasantly,
and without vibration or noise. Very
low gear ratios. because of tremen-
dous speed, are apt to prove unpleas-
ant and costly at speeds of thirty
miles per hour and over.

international Has Jitney
Service For Visitors

| The International motor truck de-
partment are having an independent
| exhibit in their new headquarters, 619
| Walnut street. Free transportation to
visitors from their headquarters to
both automobile shows is a courtesy
extended from the 18th to the goth,
inclusive.
c. j. Stevens, manager of the Inter-
national motor truck department, an
nounces that for the benefit of Inter
national truck owners they have es-
tablished a complete service station,
which will be at the command of all
International truck owners. no matter
how old their trucks may be.
This supply house will carry an
abundant line of motor trucks of the
popular sizes, also a complete line of
truck parts, thus saving valuable time
and extra expense to their hundreds
of patrons. These vital features, to-
gether with the reliability of the
manufacturing company and the sales
agency back of it, speak for the per-
manency of the International motor
truck department
Merchants can no more disregard
the advantages of the motor truck
than their daily papers and telephones.
Business firms now recognize the fact
that new trade is necessary and horse
and wagon delivery will limit them to
restricted territory and volume.
The motor truck permits a large
expansion of trade and the Inter-
national is constantly making deliv-
cries to progressive firms who believe
in trade expansion.
The smaller firms formerly held to
the idea that the motor truck was only
practical for the larger concerns, but
have now broadened their views, lost
that business timidity and are pur-
chasing trucks as matter of economy
and business expansion.
The many up-to-date features of the
new 1915 models of International mo-
tor trucks are both interesting and
pleasing to the many visitors and pur-
chasers now calling at the Inter-
national motor truck department, GIG
Walnut street, Harrisburg, Pa.
