A special exhibition of twenty Ave
paintings by early American artists
will open In the Detroit Museum OF
Art ON New Years day and continue
for two weeks. The group includes
important canvases OF Jonathan
Blackburn, Copley, Smybert, Harding,
Stuart. Sully and West and other
American primitiyes. Fifteen ex-
amples of this collection OF charac-
teristic paintings by early American
artists have been loaned for exhibit
tion In several museums through the
interest of r. c. Vose, Of Boston. who
brought the collection together. These
have been supplemented by eight ex-
amples loaned through the courtesy
of Lendell Pitts, OF Detroit, and by
two Vests, from the museums perma-

painted signs and coaches as well as
the statesmen, gentry and diyines OF
that period The biographies OF
West, Copley. Stuart. Sully and Smy-

TO contend, they were painters OF un-
usual genius. Their work is very
rare today and there is scarcely a
more dificult task than that OF coax

their ancestral settings.
Some Of the portraits loaned by
IIendell Pitts, of which there are
eight, were painted before the revo-

who has shot any farther skyward
than Big Babe" Turner, tackle on
the Razorback team this fall. Tur
ner is six feet seven and he weighs
23S pounds. He is 10 years old. He
is so large that the average heavy
weight lineman looks like pygmy,
and thus far no football player has
found it practical to bulge Turner,
once he has his mo - i-2 trilbys"
firmly planted in the "gretna." Not
only is Turner an unusual man in
height and weight, but he is an anoma-
ly in other respects. He has the al
most inconceivable reach of "a inches
and can shoot his long arms over an
opposing lineman and stop plunging
backs before they have advanced to
the line of scrimmage, Despite the
fact that Turner already has passed
the average height Of man by more
than 10 inches. he is still growing
toward the azure dome. He says he
won't and doesn't want to stop grow
ing until he is seven feet tall and
weighs 500 pounds. His youth makes
it possible that this giants hopes may
be realized.

GEAR RATIO MOST VITAL
TO AUTO SATISFACTION

Chief Engineer G.. o. Behn OF the Hud-
son likes to talk on techpical topics But
he has a way of investing them with
simplicity and clearness that makes these
dry subjects attractive to any motor car
enthusiast. Most buyers know very little
on the feature of gear ratio. and yet 1t is
vital, Mr., Behn says, to real motor car
satisfaction. A twenty-horsepower truck
motor can pull a huge load up a pretty
stiff grade and do it at a fair speed. 1t
does it, however very noisily and with
excessive vibration. Some people think
that they would like to have a low power
motor of this kind in their car, and have
an idea that they would then gain fuel
economy and yet have plenty of power.
Mr.. Behn shows how this idea is a fall
lacy because the motor would require to
turn over at such a tremendous rate in
order to gain driving wheel speed that 1t
would not be satisfactory for a pleasure
car. On the other hand. a motor that is
geared too high does not produce salts
faction because it must OF necessity have
a very powerful motor in order to over
come the high gear ratio.

Twin Cars Have
Public Guessing

Two cars side by side, SO near alike
that only an experienced eye on first
glance can distinguish between them;
both bodies deep maroon, both bonnets
black and wheels of like finish, form a
unique display which is getting liberal
share of attention at the automobile
shows. These cars are the Model So and
AZ Oldsmobiles.
So closely do the lines of Model ~, the
light four Oldsmobile, compare with
those of the sx=cylinder car, that when
the cars are within a few feet of each
other many people find 1t necessary to
inquire which car is which, Except for
size there is no detestable difference in
them, and even the smaller size of the
four-cylinder model cannot easily be dis
covered since three inches were added
recently to the length of its body. For
the first time in the history of the motor
ear industry a designer has succeeded in
duplicating In a four-cylinder car the
exact lines and general appearance of a
larger six-cylinder model.
There are differences between the two
models" explained j. V. Hall, sales man
ager of the Odds Motor works." although
they are differences which do not readily
reveal themselves from the appearance
of the cars. The Model IS has six cylin-
ders, a seven-passenger body and a
longer wheelbase."
