Brand Whitlock Tours From
Washington to Toledo In An
Overland Six Without Hitch
United States Ambassador to Belgium Pleasant Journey
His Home in Ohio-Trip Through Country Pre-
ferred to Pullman

Preferring an automobile to a pri-
vate car, Brand Whit1ock United
States ambassador to Belgium made
his homecoming trip from Washington
to Toledo in an Overland six" tour
ing car.
Although Mr.. Whitlock arrived at
the capitol tired and worn from the
great strain he has been under, he
decided that he could secure greater
rest and recreation by making the
trip to Toledo in an automobile than
in Pullman. And in spite of the fact
that the weather was severely cold
during the entire four days taken on
the journey, and the roads frozen and
rutty, both Mr. and Mrs Whit1ock en-
joyed the trip immensely.
The other members of the WhitIock
party who enjoyed the winter trim
were Mrs Whitlock's mother, maid
and Mieke, the little Pekinese dog.

OVERLAND is SOLD
TO THE CLASSES AS
WELL AS THE MASSES
Many Prominent Figures In the United States Are
Overland Owners-Men of Wealth Considered
AS Good Prospects AS Those of Medium
PockethOoix

The degree of perfection attained in
the medium priced car makes its APP
peal not only to those of moderate
means, but also to people of wealth.
An excellent example of this may
be found in the list of owners of Over
land cars. During the past few months
Overland dealers have reported an in
creasing number of sales to promi-
nent and wealthy people who might
heretofore have been considered pros
poets for far higher-p priced cars.
Champ Clark, speaker of the house
of representatives, and A. l.. Mohler
president of the Union Pacific railroad
are among the most recent to add their
names to the long list of Overland
owners. Congressman Clark purchased
a Model SO Overland touring cars in
Washington on the same day that Mr.
Mohler bought his in Omaha
Either of these men could have in
vested in any one of the high priced
cars selling at five or six times the
price of the Overland If they so de-
sired In fact, Mr.. Mohler already owns
two of the highest-priced cars made in
this country. But the practicability
of the Overland, with its detachable
top and numerous other advantages,
appealed to him strongly as a car of
exceptional value.
A few years ago men Of their stand
ing were considered prospects exclu-
sively for dealers handling high priced
cars, Automobiles at that time were
judged solely from a price standpoint

EXCELLENT RECORD
OF A CADILLAC g"
First of Type Bought In
Seattle Has Never Been
Overhauled


A Seattle, Wash, owner of a Cadillac
eight has driven his car 900 miles in the
last IL months. This is an average of
1000 miles month"; or better than Sc miles
per day. The ordinary motor car owner
in a city will drive an average of prob
ably 5000 miles per year
This Cadillac is the first of the eight
cylinder type delivered to a Seattle buyer.
In spite of the fact that the distance
it has covered is nearly equal to the
earth's circumference, it has never been
overhauled and the owner has just COM
pfeted a tour of 1400 miles in California
The car was shipped to San Francisco and
from there driven to Los Angeles by the
coast route and back by the valley route.
A number of side trips were taken, and
two mountain ranges were crossed, one
through the famous San Marco pass. The
fastest days travel was from Bakers
field, Cal. to San Francisco. The distance
of 9O6 miles between the two points was
covered in 10 hours of running.

PAIGE HOLIDAY
ORDERS EXCEED
ALL BIG RECORDS
Sales Manager Krohn De-
clares Them Greater
Than During Previous
Selling Season

Tie holiday spirit, prevailing every
where, received a great impetus in the
sales offices of the Paige-Detroit Motor
Car company during the week before
Christmas as Sales Manager Henry
Krohn opened his mail and kilograms. The
Paige has been receiving the best kind of
presents and they come from all over
the country. AS a matter of fact the
'remembrances' were in the form of
dealers orders, and they broke all prece-
dents in the history of the company.
have in my desk now,' says Mr..
krohn, more actual orders from Paige
dealers than we have ever before re-
ceived at any similar period This in
crease in business is remarkable when
it is understood that the orders now
total far in excess of anything we have
ever experienced even at the beginning of
the conventional selling season.
The pre-holiday period is not supposed
to develop sales records.
The greater activity is not looked for
until the new year is under way and
the spring selling season approaches. This
extraordinary accumulation of orders, [
believe, is a pretty fair Indication of
what our dealers expect in the way of
business for the year just beginning. t
makes very cheerful and optimistic
forecast of industrial and commercial
conditions and shows that prosperity now
with us is on a very firm footing

Since Their Chief Has
Red Mitchell

Fires out in Winona, Mimi, before
they start,
That is the order of things now sew
eral months ago this Mississippi river
city had no guarantee that little fire
would not spread into a big conflagra-
ton. The reddest red automobile that
ever was seen in Minnesota is the
proud possession of Fire Chief Norton
and he hits up so miles an hour in go
ing to fires, the loudest and most
raucous siren horn helping to clear the
streets of traffic.
Perhaps no piece of fire apparatus in
use in the country is just like Chief
Nortons car. The color and the siren
are the only things about it, upon first
glance, that remind the critic of its use
Closer inspection reveals the fact that
he carries two powerful fire extinguish-
ers on the running boards of the road
ster, which was made to order at the
Mitchell-Lewis Motor company's plant
at Racine, Wis. In the rear compart-
ment, entirely concealed, is a large
chemical tank built to carry pressure
of ESQ pounds to the square inch, while
in the rear of that is a reel of fire hose
200 feet in length. BY means of by
pass and valve the contents of the big
fire tank may be discharged through a
regular hose lead should the chief hap
pen to arrive at the scene of the fire
when O. three-inch hose is available.
Through the one-inch hose on the reel
with a small nozzle the chemical charge
may be sent against a fire in one min

turbed privacy.
The party was well protected against
the elements. Fur robes, listers and
stocks caps made driving comfortable
while the crisp mountain air was an
agreeable change from the close. stuff
fy railroad cars. During the trip the
Whltlock party drove through five
snowstorms and was not until they
neared Toledo that they found the
roads suitable for fast driving. For hours
at tine the car made it's own tracks
over the spowbound roads in the noun
tains. One stretch in particular that
extended for nine miles along a noun
tain trail was spoken of by Mr.. Whit
lock as being more beautiful than any
thing he had ever seen abroad
No punctures or trouble of any kind
marred the journey. Double chains had
to be wrapped around the rear wheels
of the ear as the roads led the way
over mountains seldom traversed by
olne and only one and one-ha1f gal
Ions of oil were consumed by the Over
land during the entire four days.
When the car was examined in To-
ledo 1t was found to be in perfect con-
dition No water had been put in the
tank from the time it left Washington

him, as 1T was the first time in two
years he had had an opportunity of

and il was rare event for a salesman
to interest a wealthy man in any car
that did not sell at a top figure
But quantity production methods
now in vogue in this country have en-
abled big manufacturers such as the
Willys-overland company to put the
maximum of quality and workmanship
into their cars and yet sell them for a
reasonable figure.
As the second largest consumers of
raw materials in the industry. the To-
ledo concern is able to not only buy in
enormous quantities, but are able to
take advantage of every favorable turn
of the market, anticipating their re-
quirements and paying huge sums in
cash, The initial saving on the cost
of materials alone runs into millions
of dollars in the course of a year. But
ii is due primarily to the improved
methods of manufacture, made possible
only in a plant of its size. that the
Overland is able to put quality first in
the construction of its cars. Each part
of the Overland is made by men who
have become proficient in their work
through constant application at one
task. These parts when assembled
must of necessity form more perfect
car than would be possible to build In
a factory where the production was
limited or where the comparatively
few workmen We're compelled to turn
out a great variety of parts
1t is manufacturing methods such
as these that have placed the Overland
in position where the car itself. as
well as its price, now appeals to all
buyers.

SAXON REPORTS BIG
WINTER BUSINESS
December Orders 1900 Per
Cent Ahead of Last
Year

Thirteen hundred per cent ahead of
last December is the remarkable report
of business made by the Saxon Motor Car
corporation. December used to be con-
sidered a pretty dull month in the auto
mobile industry. but the Saxon company
has shown not only that automobiles
can be sold in the winter, but that people
actually clamor for them. The January
schedule calls for $500 cars
AT the New York show, which opens
next Friday night, the Saxon corporation
is planning big jubilee and celebration
of the remarkable winter business, and
also of the fact that the Saxon exhibit
which two years ago occupied an obscure
corner of the fourth floor is now one OF
the features of the main floor at the
Grand Central Palace
Space at the show is awarded in &C
cordance with volume of business done
Consequently the arrival of the Saxon on
the main floor is tangible evidence Of
the growth of the company, which now
ranks sixth among Detroit makers and
ninth among all automobile mauufao-
turers in number of cars produced. One
feature Of the Saxon jubilee will be- a
banquet at which hundreds of dealers
will be present from all over the coun-
try
which business is holding up during the
winter, Sales Manager II. G. Getzinger
says that the Saxon district manager
for the Pacific coast is putting 500 cars
into his territory in December alone. r.
l.. Dubroy, the San Francisco distributor
received n tratnload of g freight cars
full of Saxons early in December, and
expects to move another trainload by
the middle of January. The Saxon dealer
in Philadelphia has ordered eight car
