1.-TWO years ago we saw three things. First
. was that the tendency Of the public demand
i in both Europe and America was to .
compact high speed motor that was more efficient.
would get away quicker, run more smoothly, have
greater fexibility, show greater economy and last
longer under hard service.
Second was that a public temporarily diverted to
cars that only looked well and rode nicely for a while.
would swing back to demand quality manufacture
and the ability to stay put"
Third was that only those manufacturers who
built their own cars in large volume and bought their
own materials for spot cash at the advantage of the
market could survive.
Motor Designed in Europe
So we sent our engineers to Europe to design a new
motor and began to lay our plans for a greatly
increased production this season.
We are now building two big new factory additions
to handle the work. We added machines that cost
$9O,O0O.OO apiece to do work in our factory in order
to give this remarkable quality ca. to you at $3.50.
Here is the result.
No one dreamed that such a car could be built for
$3.50. 1t is equal to cars that sold for $4,000 three
years ago. 1t isn't a made-over model. reduced in
size, Or certain things eliminated to fit the price-it
is a brand new car, designed specially as a Quality
car at a low price.
The Quality Car at Small Profit
We are marketing this QUALITY car on the low.
est profit per car in the motor car business.

The great valve-in-head motor. with overhead
camshaft, costs US $4,000 more to build in our own
shops, than the ordinary type Of motor can be bought
for en- the outside, and most Of the competitors in our
price class are using the ordinary type Of motor.
When Chalmers engineers went to Europe to
study design two years ago. they found European.
designers at work on high speed motors Of the valve
in-head type with overhead camshaft.
European makers had already tried this type out
in their racers. They were perfecting it for a road
car.
Wehopedt to Be the first in America to adopt this
style Of motor. But when the war stopped European
makers. fate decrced that we should lead the world
in the use Of the valve,in-head overhead camshaft
motor for a stock car.
We were not surprised at the showing at Indian
apolis and Chicago. where this type Of motor won all
honors. We knew a year ago that these results
would be achieved.
Speedway Racers All Of This Type
We knew that to attain a speed Of go to 100
! miles an hour that the motor would have to be

COMING OF Il PESTS.

The report comes from Cornell I'm
iversity that the seventeen.year To-
Gusts, which were in the East only
four years ago. will break a record and
appear this summer. In the past these
pests have kept pretty we'll to sched-
ule, according to the department OF
agriculture. In connection with the
statement regarding the locust the de-
partment Of agriculture has issued a
bulletin quarantining a part Of Maine,
New Hampshire. Vermont. Massachu'
sets, Rhode Island and Connecticut,
where the gypsy and the brown-tatl
moths have been particularly active
and are so still. Thus far these pests
have not threatened this state, but II
they o from Connecticut into New
York it is a short journey to Pennsy!-
yania and West Virginia.
These moth pests are difficult to
fight with any degree of success and
up to this time no effective means
have been discovered. The claim IS
made that an infectious disease known
as moth cholera" has been discovered
that will kill them of and in no way
affect human beings, but it remains TO
be proven. Investigations have also
searched for killing parasites, but IN
successfully. Throughout Massachu'
sets and some Of the other New Eng.
land States the gypsy moth. said TO
have been brought here in roses from
Holland in 1890. has done immense
damage to trees and vegetation and
the work Of fighting them has cost a
great deal Of money. The brown-tail
moth is dangerous to human beings,
for the fine yellow-brown hairs Of the
caterpillar stage fly through the air
and produce a rash if they land on nu.
man beings. Breathed into the lungs
thew have been known to produce tu-
berculosis among the Investigators
who seldom escape all harm. En-.
tomolorists have thus far been put TO
their wits end to combat the pests
and have failed. Now add the locust
nest to the two moths and New Eng.
land. which is particularly threatened,
ia not to be envied.-Pittsburg Sun.

THEY SAY"

They say!"-ah. well, suppose they
do!
But can they prove the story true?
Why count yourself among the they"
Who whisper what they dare not say?
Suspicion may arise from naught
But malice, envy, want OF thought.
They say!"but why the tale re
hearse,
And help to make the matter worse?
No good can possibly accrue
From telling what may be untrue,
And Is it no a nobler plan
To speak Of all the best you can?
They say!"-well, if it should be so,
Why need you tell the tale Of woe?
viii It the bitter wrong redress,
Or make n pang OF sorrow less?
Will it the erring one restore.
Henceforth to go and sin no more
They say!"-oh, pause and look
within.
See how thy heart inclines to sin;
And lest in dark temptations hour
Thou, too, shouldSt sink beneath its
power.
Pity the frail. weep DER their fall,
But speak Of good or not at all.

RIGHT TO RESIGN.

Manufacturers OF arms and ammuni-
ton show good sense in trying TO Sc
cure the services Of u well-trained
army officers. But the circumstances
which have taxed so greatly the re-
sources of the manufacturers are also
taxing the resources Of the army. Our
land d~efenses are undergoing reorgani-
cation. The army Is to be strengthen
ed and there is work for all the conl-
petent officers and many more. The
right Of an army officer to resign in
times Of peace has never before been
made a public question, but the needs
OF the hour have compelled Secretary
Garrison to make 1t such a question
now and to ask for the first legal opin-
ion on this point ever required. OF
course, 1t Is well understood that in
case OF war all these officers would
give their services to their country,
but, although we have no war and hope
to have none, the services of all the
officers are needed.-N. Y. Times.

DINING AT RUSSIA.

More likely than that the Russian
reoffensive has again broken down, as
the news dispatches relate. is that the
Russian retreat from Galicia Is contin.
ued without interruption except for
rearguard stands. Russia hasn'thadany
offensive in weeks. AS long as they
are in action with the trained German
Iegions the Russian half-mob armies,
even with adequate supplies OF arms
and ammunition, must be at a disad.
vantage. Nevertheless, that truth does
not solve Berlin's military problems
either in the west or in the east. The
hosts Of Russia are too colossal. the
spaces over which they are spread too
vast, for Berlin ever to be abe to put

DeelsIoN OF SUPREME COURT.

Those who have been trying by
very possible mems to railroad" the
aifnont charter out Of existence
ave at last hts a snag. After having
smooth sailing in the local courts.
here they acted as plaintiff and de.
lendant In the case and managed to
st Z decision adverse to the charter,
ne anti-charter gang failed to get by
he supreme court of the state.
me record of the case finally
reached Charleston on Saturday. af-
tsr every possible means had been
Used 70 delay getting the record pre-.
nared and sent to the capital. Yes
tsrdsy Judge Williams granted an ap'
neaiin the case and the charter sui:
I'M be heard on its merits when ne
suprems court again comes in ses-
ton Ia September. The charter case
sfl be among the first cases heard
81 the supreme court in the fall. as
e ! recognized that this a Is OF VI
tai interest to the Fairmont district.
amer the court has heard the case on
IS merits and has taken the evidence
onered by both sides, if the court then
decides in favor Of the charter, a
date for the election under the rules
AZ he new charter will be set by the
supreme court.
Now that the record Of the case has
reached Charleston and the de-
efsion has been made granting the ap,
peal, the matter will Of necessity be
dropped for the summer months, as
. 5 fnrther action can be taken until
the court again goes into session in
September.
The decision handed down yester-
day BY Judge Williams almost makes
IL sure that soone or later the
new charter will win the long
aght and that Fairmont will hold
elections under the laws Of the new
document. 1t is absolutely certain
tnat the charter case will be given a
air ana square hearing in the SUI
prerae court in the fall, and that is
81 that the friends Of the charter de-
sire, for they believe that the charter
vim stand any legal test. so long as
he case is not decided before it
reaches the court. The decision Of
Judge williams yesterday was a great
victory for the people Of Fairmont.
