Public to Get First
Glimpse of Dodge Car

= most unusual for a car in the popular
priced field.
In designing car OF light weight.
Dodge Brothers have made use OF their
experience gained through exhaustive
tests carried in with chrome -Yenadlum
steel ia the days when they were en-
gagged in manufacturing automobile
parts. Wherever the employment oil
chrome-vauadium steel would give
strength without excessive weight, ITS
use was accepted.
Drop forgiugs. another important
item IN the making Of the new car. are
also employed 80 a degree unusual III
the moderate priced car. Dodge Broth
ers are in position TO do this, because
they have a forge shop in which there
arc forty-fve steam hammers. These
forgings are much stronger than cast
ings o. similar shape would be. and at
the same time arc lighter.
Amone other improvements over
standard automobile practice, the
DODGE Brothers have devised a method
whereby none Of the transmission
gears are in mesh when the car Is run
ming in direct drive. In the ordinary
Cearset the gears are constantly ro-
tatinC.

the squared end Of that shaft and out

As soon as the direct drive connection
is made the countershaft is imperative
end all gears are az rest. The advan-
tages o. this are obvious. The un-
necessary wear on the countershaft
bearings is eliminated, to say nothing
Of the silence Of the transmission when
the drive is direct.

FORD FIGURES RISE
Nearly $4,000 Cars Sold in
Last Four Months.

The Ford car is not displayed at the
Palace show, but there is no general
belief that il VIII be forgotten. The
Ford Motor Company reports that in
the four months ended November 80
there were 1906 Ford GAYS sold and
delivered. This demonstrate quite con-
clusively that the tremendous schedule
OF 100000 cars for the year is being
maintained. This fact is made partic-
uarly impressive BY the achievement
Of this enormous production and sale
during what is generally considered to
be the slow season OF the year.
The Ford Motor Company offers an
interesting explanation to account for
at least a portion Of this achievement,
in Che claim that over G60, 900 Of their
owners are spreading the news chat q
Ford is never idle; that its service Is
never interrupted and that, conse-
ouently. the owners time probably

evidenced particularly in the present
movement for the putting in of &C.

completed in front of the property of

left to complete the walk on the east
side of Ridgewood avenue from the
