THE summer of 1915 has seen
many transconttnental tours by motor
lists, who have gained thereby. in see
ing a far greater amount Of scenery
than If viewed along the railroad right
of-way. To meet the demand for such
purposes automobiles must be con-

and wear of road travelling and must
embody comfort and ease to insure
absolute pleasure to the passenger.
The Light Skies seem to meet this de-
mand as being both powerful and

its way through the stoutest walls Of
steel.
While the Texas and New York
carry but ten big guns each as against
the twelve guns in the man batteries
of the Wyoming and the Arkans as.
still the total broadside of the New
York Is 1900 pounds. as compared
with the salvo OF lO.iio possible with
the Wyoming's IL inch weapons. AS
the modern battle Is won by salvos,
and as superior weight of metal and
greater bursting charges mean graver
injuries. II should be clear to the popu-
lar mind just what our two latest adj
ditions to our Atlantic dreadnought
fleet mean t. our potential security in
time of need.
Up TO the time of writing this article
none Of the great dreadnoughts of Eu-
rope hav,. met in battle Those that
have gone into action have tried forces
with land defences, and notably the
forts guarding the approaches to the
Dardanellcs. But lessons are TO b
learned from the fight off the coast OF
Chile, the battle near the Falkland
Islands and the engagement VIII II the
British fleet pursued the Germans and
sunk the Buecher.
The two armorcd ships Of Admiral
CraduCks force had a combined dis
plaCem- Mt Of $4,000 tons and their to-
tai compliments numbered 1867, Off
GERS and crew. Admiral Won Specs
two armored cruisers totalled 22,S40
tons and the men available Numbered
1.5s2, TIL German Admiral had more
men for lesser displacement
Counting only armor piercing guns
Admiral CradoCk had aboard the
Good Hope and the Monmouth a total
of thirty-four heavy weapons-thirty-
two 6 inch and two 80 inch rifles. Ad-
miral Won Spec on the Gneisenau and
Scharnhorst had altogs Their sixteen So
inch pieces and twelve SO inch rapid
firers. In numbers the German ships
were seemingly outclassed 40 far as
guns We're concerned, but the Kaiser's
armored cruisers were vastly superior
because of their batteries OF SO inch
rifles. In the matter OF speci there
was but little to choose between the
opposing forces. In fact, the average
maximum speed was substantially
identical.
Just at dusk. when his vessels were
