SERVICE PLAN IS A
BOON TO OWNERS OF
STUDEBAkER CARS

Something new has happened In
the automobile world. II Is a boon
TO the owners of new machines. es-
peeially to the man who Is operating
his first car. Studebaker dealers In
Chicago. Detroit and several other
large cities are institutng peri
odieal inspection of cars they sell.
Working according to this systematic
service plan. IL has been proved in the
places where il has been given a thor
ough trial that not only does the car
receive adequate attention but the
new owner receives his motor edu-
cation without damaging the machine
The Studebaker systematic service
plan has been rapidly taken up BY
Studebaker dealers. While local con-
ditions cause certain variations In IL.
in the main the plan Is everywhere
the same. The car is brought to the
dealer on the appointed day and gone
over carefully. 1t comes in twice the
first month and every thirty days
thereafter for five months.
On an inspection sheet which gives
al glance what Is done on each visit
there are sixty-one operations to be
checked off by the inspector. Thus
both dealer and owner know that the
car has been gone over thoroughly.
The vital parts of the motor are IN
spected and adjusted, valves, csirbil-
rotor and ignition system. Wheel
bearings, the steering system ana the
springs are creased and readiusted.
Then there Is a careful scrutiny of
the electrical system, starter, motor
generator, lights and wiring.

Although a number Of reasons may
enter into the unprecedented demand
for motor cars of the 1915 type, there
is one which stands out prominently
by itself and that Is necessity. The
automobile Is a necessity and as such
il Is being bought by hundreds Of
thousands of people, majority OF
whom have never owned cars. Others
have had the experience and know
what IL Is 10 be without one so they
have made the best possible deals for
their old machines In acquiring new
ones Of the latest type,
II is figured by a man who is keen
on such things that any ambitious
individual who believes that time IL
money" and apportions mis- work and
, efficiency in the ratio should be able
to make a car pay for itself inside
OF three years. Many can do this in
much less time.
Time was when the automobile was
rated as luxury and not much
more. but that has passed. The mod
ern. motor ear Is not luxury with
the masses. Business Of the day finds
It a necessity and Il will play even a
greater part in the business ~ the
future.
Its Uses in buSincss.
The big business man makes the
circuit in big car driven by Il chauf-
feur. The small business man or the
salesman covers the ground just as
quickly in n small car. Naturally the
greatest field Is among the same folks.
and they have the satisfaction Of Just
as good a ride as the owners Of the
high-priced cars. No jealousy exists;
honors are even.
The INDUSTRY itself consists of $50
makers of motor ears employing hun
dreds of thousands of workmen,
mostly skilled and paid good wages.
There are more than $4,000 local
dealers in the country and about 1000
garage-men who do not sell cars.
There are hundreds of makers Of ac-
cessories with their working organi-
cations.
Then there are those who produce
the steel, aluminium and brass which
enter into the cars, also the lumber,
leather, glass, rubber. oil and other
things.
The automobile industry now ranks
third in Importance In this country
but It's influence is wider than that
Of any other. II has done more for
Michigan than any one thing and the
Tact that II cannot help growing is
one OF the brightest omens for the

.HUPP MOTOR CAR
COMPANY REPORTS
BIG BUSINESS
Regardless Of Business Dis
turbances and the War
This Company Enjoyed Ire
mendous Trade for March,

That the war, domestic financial
| disturbances, and other causes which
contributed to the recent uneasiness,
have not affected the automobile in
dustry Is well proved by the reports
of some of the Detroit manufacturers.
In a statement just issued TO its
dealers, the Hupp Motor Car company
states that the month Of March was
the biggest March in the history Of
the company. Shipments showed d
| % per cent increase over March, 1914.
And in addition to the shipments
actually made. the Hupp company re-
ports more immediate shipment or
ders on hand than ever before.
| To Increase It's capacity beyond its
normal ii was necessary to work the
| Hupmoble factory overtime In a
number of departments from the
early part of March. In the latter
part OF the month the daily output
averaged seventy-five cars "a day.
The Hupp Motor Car company be-
gan April with an increased average
daily output for the month of eighty
cars a day. This Is at the rate of
more than 1000 cars for the month,
into the factory, Hupmobile officials
stated that shipments OF eighty cars
day will not supply the demand.
These heavy March shipments are
in no sense an unusual BOOM" says
| President j. Walter Drake of the
1upmobile company. Throughout
the winter our business has shown a
steady increase. The heavy demand
for ears is in no way concentrated.
We have more than 200 distributors
and dealers throughout the United
States, and the demand seems to come
equally from all parts OF the country.
We find improved business conditions
and a steadily increasing confidence
in the future in all sections. In the
south. where II was anticipated that
the cotton situation would retard buy
ing, we are enjoying as large a sale
of Hupmobiles as We have ever had.
The Pacific coast is taking cars in
large quantities Since the Boston
Automobile show. New England has
been buying rapidly: The New Eng
land states all show material gain
over last year. The automobile busi-
ness in New York is brisk even for
that city. The great agricultural ais

MANY CHANGES IN
MOTOR CAR DESIGN
DURING PAST YEAR

During the last year there have
been many important changes in mo-
tor car design. The heavy high pow
cred motor car has gradually receded
in favor of the smaller and lighter
type. The automobile, no longer con-
sidered a luxury. has become ne
cessity, and economy of operation is
a factor carefully considered by the
purchaser. The owner is no longer
willing to pay large fuel and tire bills.
In dispensing with the heavy high
powered motor, one does not sacri-
flee comfort Or speed. The modern

adjustment, gets out of order easily,
uses up repair mems time at 60 to
10 cents an hour and costs the owner
much for upkeep.
The many changes noted in the
new 1915 models are due to public
demand. The purchaser insists on
comfort, durability and economical
operation. 1t has been up to the man

type small bore and low stroke mo-
tor has proved itself very powerful
and efficient. This type of motor with
six cylinders affords the flexibility
and the same power obtained in many
other types of much greater dimen-
sions. In brief, the clean-cut simple
design of the modern ear eliminated
all excess weight. The more unnec-
essary weight that can be eliminated
throughout a chassis. the less horse
power is required to obtain efficient
results.

Cars for All Weather.

Cars for All Weather.
As part OF the necessity of auto
mobiles this Is the day OF the ALL
weather car. and the sale during the
past winter of the inclosed types has
been In excess of that of other years.
This car Is a natural development of
conditions In America, and Il appears
this season In n great variety of styles
than in the past. and the usefulness
OF this type, combined with the rea-
sonable price, has made IL very pop
ular.
Closed cars were rather expensive
In the earlier days OF the industry,
but the makers have learned how to
keep down the excess which the body
tackled on the price OF an ordinary
touring ear, until the difference Is not
enough to deny the average motorist
Of comfort in the worst seasons OF the
year.

are not found on most of the up-to-

construction OF the ears and the re-
finement which came through expe-

easy for women to drive as for men.
More women drivers are seen every
day: they pilot the cars over the ruts

Since the day that woman began to

have been working toward their COM

riding more enjoyable and rain vision

there are foot rests. robe rails and

POULTRY PROFITS BUY AUTO.
Thomas C. Pollock Tells How He
Made $2.19 Each Out of His Hens.

How he made his hens pay him a
profit of s2.1s each was told by
Thomas c. Pollock of Anacostia in an
address last night at the regular meet
ing of the National Capital Poultry and
Pigeon Association, held in the Public
Library. One years profits from his
flock of $50 hens, he. said, had been
enough to pay for an automobile.
George I. Kelley, talking on the
money to be made out of capons, said
he had made Il profit of 95 cents each
from a flock of such table fowls.
Plans for the exhibition to be held
