AUTO PLANT HAS
: WELFARE SYSTEM
Over 5000 Feet of Floor Space in
Chalmers Factory Devoted to Rest
Rooms and Hospitals.
MATRoN LOOKS AFTER GIRLS

When Miss Ida NJ Tarbell well-known
writer and investigator, visited Detroit
recently on a tour Of modern factories
she gave unstinted praise to the welfare
plans and sanitation system in vogue at
the big Chalmers plant.
completely equipped emergency hos
pital under the direction of three physi-
clans and a trained nurse, comfortable
rest rooms for the women employees and
the most modern Of sanitation system
were among the items commented favor
etSy upon by Miss Tarbell. who Is at
present writing a series of factory articles
for monthly magazine.
For the comfort of the women and girls
who earn a living at the Chalmers plant
q suite of rest rooms has been provided
and placed In charge Of competent
matron The matron's duties are not
limited to factory hours, but extend to
night visits to the homes of sick women
employees, and the selection of suitable
rooming and boarding places for the
girls under her charge. Few women's
clubs are fitted out with better taste or
more completely than the Chalmers rest
rooms Comfortable couches and easy
chairs, soft rugs. cut flowers and potted
plants all form part OF the equipment.
Each room has a Victrola and records
ranging from the latest fox trot to the
finest selections from grand opera sung
by Caruso. Farrar and other artists.

over 5000 feet Of valuable floor space
in the Chalmers plant is given up in this

The latter adjunct includes a perfectly
appointed hospital for the treatment of
emergency cases and the services Of two
physicians and a surgeon. AS a proven
ton against the spread of contagious dis
ease, each new employe is given a
thorough physical examination before go
ing to work in the factory. Card records
are kept Of medical treatment given en-

equipment of the physicians office is

Not content with the treatment of EN-

after a series of exhaustive tests made In
various departments of the Chalmers fac

Council Bluffs Girl
Drives Paige Car to
the Coast and Back

Showing true American spirit and
being game" enough to try gained few
laurels for an 1S-year-old Council Bluffs
girl and gave Aer three little sisters and
father a very pleasant outing.
Mr.. s. Boquette Of Council Bluffs pur-
chased Paige car several weeks ago.
with the idea OF driving to San Francisco.
His son was the only member Of the
family who knew much Of the car. and
was selected to do the driving. For
some reason "son" changed his mind
when the party reached Grand Island
and decided to return. Miss Florence. an
1S-year-old daughter Of Mr.. and Mrs.
Boquette, had her little heart set on going
to San Francisco and, furthermore. she
didn't propose to ride on the train.
Finally Miss Florence persuaded her
father to allow her a trial. Although she
knew comparatively little about the car,
she soon mastered its simple mechanical
details and drove the doubtful party all
the way to San Francisco and back.
During the time they were on the road
they had no worries regarding hotel
reservations nor whether rooms rented
for 81 or IS, because they slept out of
doors in their own blankets every night.
The trip out took twenty-five days and
the return trip fourteen days. The entire
mileage was over 1900 miles.
Doug Bowie, manager of the Murphy
O'Brien Auto company, says that the
Boquettes are very well pleased with
the performance of the car. and, says
Bowie. 1T was a genuine pleasure to us
to greet the little lady who made the
trip" This test speaks credit for the
simplicity of Paige operation.

Pullman Pays Heed
to the Wants of the
Women Drivers

Attention to the wants and comfort
of women in the matter of motor car
construction and design, has, in a meas
ure, been overlooked by automobile manu-
facturers," says H. w. Hayden, general
manager of the Pullman Motor Car COM
pany of York, Pa, in discussing the
latest trend in the automobile business.
THE manufacturer" says Mr. Hayden,
seems TO have assumed that as men do
most of the driving it is necessary, prin-
cipally, to build cars to mems require
ments. I am speaking, however, of the
mechanical features of the car and not
OF those niceties OF boudoir equipment
such as mirrors, receptables for toilet
articles, ETC., found on many cars in
greater abundance for the feminine pas
senger than for the men. But the re-
quirements 1 really want to emphasize
are more particularly those related to
the easy operation of a car. The manu-
facturers heretofore have left this field
more or less open to the electric car
makers, who have made a special appeal
to women on the basis of ease of control.
Impressed with these facts, our COM
pany has devoted much study and expe-
riment to the construction of a gasoline
car that would combine this particular
feature of the electric with the manifold
superior features Of the gas car.
I'VE believe we have achieved this de-
sired end In our Pullman de luxe coupe
equipped with the CHI. magnetic gear
shift. which eliminates entirely the Gus
tomary system of gear shifting by hand
levers involving some little practice and
skill by the driver. not to mention the
exertion OF certain amount of muscular
strength"

Maxwell Outlines
Thorough Campaign
to Advertise Parts

The Maxwell Motor company of De-
troit, through the Van Cleve Advertising
agency of New York City, has designed
a very clever and original advertising
campaign.
The campaign consists of series of ad-
vertisements which deal with separate
parts Of the Car. The object is to impress
upon the minds of possible buyers the
compile teness OF the equipment and the
careful consideration given to every de-
tail OF the automobile.
c. w. Francis of the G. w. Francis
Auto company is very much pleased with
the new campaign and believes 1t will be
highly effective. Mr.. Francis believes that
one of the chief mistakes in advertising
is to try to crowd too much copy into a
small space. BY using concentrated argu-
ments upon individual parts the crowded
space is done away with and the points
are proven conclusively.
The campaign will appear. complete

Heard
At the Omaha

Under the new statute passed by the
last legislature joyriding garage employees
who take out cars without consent Of
owner or garage proprietor are liable TO
fine of not exceeding 500 or three months
jail sentence. The club stands ready 70

used by joyriders. 1t is high time an
example is made Of some one. The law
is there Let's use it. The owner Of a
car can wear 1t out fast enough.
Road Comparisons.
Nebraska roads are boulevards COM
pared to some of the Missouri highways.
In trip from Clinton to Kansas City, a
distance OF 100 miles, the motorist must
ford at least six streams on main roads.
Road improvements are conspicuous by
their absence. Nebraska may not have
the best roads in the world. but there
are very few places on main highways
without a bridge.
Help Wanted.
The club will be glad to assist car
owners or dealers who are members in
the employment Of competent drivers or
mechanics, by placing their wants on
file in the club room. In many instances

Kansas city and Omaha.
Kansas City has a splendid country
club house and three-story garage, but
the class of road and touring benefits
given by the local club is far ahead Of
Kansas City. The Kansas City club
does not receive road reports every day.
Omaha does. The Omaha club knows
the condition Of every mile of main
highway for 200 miles west and 100 miles
north, east and south.
Road Sign Work.
The sign car will shortly start placing
about $50 new direction signs, giving
mileage from Omaha, on the highways
In Douglas and adjacent counties The
good roads committee of the Commercial
club and the Omaha Automobile club are
cooperating in this move.
Enforce the Traffic Laws.
The club room telephone has been
rather busy answering congratulations

mere fact that the winners in the Amer

line them up and escort them to Fremont.
