uses. Taken as whole, these do not
cost any less than they have been
costing. On the contrary, we are
paying more for certain materials
now than in the past.
Everybody in the manufacturing
business knows that skilled mechanics
cannot be had for less money today
than a year ago. In fact, conditions
are rather the reverse. And the best
skilled workmen are the kind we use.
Estimate Too Low
"The price of our Eight was set
too low in the beginning. AS it was
necessary to announce the price at
the time the car was announced, and
as there had been no manufacturing
experience with car of this type,
the cost of production could only be
estimated.
"In view of certain conditions which
arose after the car and the price had
been announced, it proved that the
estimate was too low.
1--WE might have lessened the cost
to the detriment of the car and the
purchaser. or we might have in
creased the price. We did neither.
And $4,000 Cadillac buyers have been
the gamers.
"But. of course, we could not con-
tinue on that basis.
"In the face of the fact that hun
dreds of thousands of automobile own
ers today are seeng their cars depre-
ciated in value from 500 tc $1,000
or more-because their makers have
felt obliged to reduce prices on new
cars-the owner of an Eight-cylinder
Cadillac, on the other hand, sees his
car actually enhanced in value.
"Even at the advanced price, there
will be smaller percentage of profit
than a person pays on his everyday
purchases. And the only reason that
even a greater advance may not be
necessary is that the car has gained
such strong hold on the public that,
from all indications, the volume of
business will be larger than ever be-

"The new Cadillac is the fruit of

statement regarding the new car.
eve believe that in this new car the
V-type engine is developed to a point
of excellence which even the most con-
scientious effort to equal, cannot reach

GA year ago the Cadillac Company

processes pushing them to a point
of certainty before its first V-type en-
CINE was marketed.
Nothing can take the place of that
hard and painstaking period of in
vention, selection, rejection, adjust
ment and adaptation.
"The first Cadillac Eight furnishes
the one certain source Of V-type in
formation based on extended expert
ence.
"And the second Cadillac Eight

Add to Convenience

Changes that have been made, eff
feet principally the accessibility of
the engine, and the appearance of
the car. The engine remains, of
course, the 80 degree eight cylinder
V-type that the Cadillac made famil-
lar last year. The electric motor
generator, ignition apparatus and car
buretor are so mounted with relation
to the cylinder blocks as to afford
easy accessibility to the valves by
removal only of the plates which en-
close them.
The body is new design, with
higher side lines, new cowl. new
hood and a higher radiator with
rounded corners, all of which altera-
tions add to the distinction Of the
cars appearance. The mounting Of
the Cadillac coat Of arms, in neat
enamel design, on the front Of the ra-
diator, is a Distinguishing mark on
the car.
Some Additions
Splashers are fitted to the front
of the radiator and along the inside
Of the front end of the frame.
New design head and side lamps
are used, with a tonneau lamp on the
right side, in the back of the front
seat, to illuminate the step when the
tonneau door is opened. An inspec-
ton lamp and Waltham clock are
added to the equipment.
Inside the body. the driver finds
the clutch and brake pedals set two
inches farther forward with the dash
set forward a corresponding distance,
and the signal horn button in the
center Of the steering wheel. The

Cadillac Announces Its
Nev Eight-Cylinder Car
No Radical Changes Essentials Following Marked Success
of First Years Production of l3O0O--Body, Hood and
Radiator Are Altered in Design-Reasons
for New Price Given

e Following a year of marked success
with the Type 81, it's first eight cyl
nder car, the Cadillac Motor Car
Company announces the second of the
eight cylinder series, to be known as
Type So, without radical change IN
mechanical design or construction.
Changes Not Needed
Consequently, the second Cadillac
Eight is, to all practical lntents, a
continuation Of the first; and the Cad
lilac Company has again achieved the
unusual in the motor car industry.
Almost invariably, the automobile
manufacturer discovers, during the
first years experience with type OF
car new to him that there is room
for many improvements in the sec
oad years production. The opposite
is true of the Cadillac and it's eight
cylinder car. The company began the
manufacture, year ago, of a type
of car entirely rev to the American
industry. There were no precedents
to serve as guide posts; no previous
experiences to which to refer. The
company was pioneering in a virgin
field.
It has frequently been said that it
is doubtful if any other concern in
the industry could have scored such
a marked success on new car which
introduced such a radical departure
from prevailing practice.
The eight cylinder car met with in
slant and continued success. When
the manufacturing year closed few
weeks ago. $4,000 of the new type
had been put into use. No short
coming had been developed through
out the year. No reason for marked
change in mechanical construction was
made manifest by continuous every
dav use of the car. It was all that
had been expected Of it. and more.

up the mail. But don't forget
to ask him if the mail is gone,
because your letter will get to
it's destination quicker, and he
is supposed to tell everybody
everything that is going on in
the office anyway.
If you live on a rural route,
come to the office in the forenoon
and call for your mail. No mail
arrives until 2 p. M, but the
postmaster can tell you wheth-
er the carrier has a certain post
card for you or not. He only
handles about 5000 pieces of
mail per day, and remembers to
whom each one is addressed. Call
for your mail anyway. Every
piece of mail on the rural routes
is counted and reported to Wash
ington, and if the carrier hasn't
any mail to take out, Uncle Sam
will pay him just to go joy-rid-
ing.
If your paper doesn't arrive
when you expect it, blame the
postmaster. He prints all the
papers, manufactures all the
merchandise and is the only one
to handle it, SO he must be to
blame.
If you come late to mail your
letters, just cuss the postmaster.
He can get the trains back and

District 40
District 40 in Brookville is re-
modelling its building, making a
two-room school which will be
splendidly equipped and most
convenient when completed. The
basement of this building, which
will be utilized for community
purposes and the industrial arts
is an interesting feature of this
building.
Morgan
Morgan village is putting an
addition on it's building at cost
of $4,000 for construction and
remodeling and redecorating the
old building. The addition will
add domestic science depart
ment three more class rooms
and an office. The building is
greatly improved in appearance
by the addition and Morgan is
to be complimented upon the
excellent appearance of both
building and grounds.
Other improvements
The Washington School, Dis
trict 20, is moving it's building
to the centre Of the lot, adding
full basement, remodeling the
furnace and refnishing the build
ing inside and out.
District 105, the Stem school,
has its building finished inter-
iorly with steel which is being
painted as is also the outside or
the building. New outhouses
have been built here. -
District GA is putting 5000 in
improvements in basement, fur
mace and other inside changes.
District II has a new heating
plant and full basement de-
signed for community use.
District 106 in Three Lakes
and District 107 in Paxton are
both charging their Easements
and remodeling their furnaces.
District 6 East, in Sherman,
has two model outhouses erected
this summer and a new belfry.
Several districts have put in
new wells during the summer,
many Of them have already in
stalled stationary wash bowls
with drains, and supply paper
towels-an object lesson that
cleanliness is the first requisite
to obtaining real knowledge.
