THE eEARLEss METZ.

! At both the New York and Chicago Automobile Shows, which were re- cently held, there was very notice able tendency on the part of the pub- lie to pay marked attention to gear IeHs transmission, and the Gearless Metz was of particular interest to them.
 It is needless to say that The Gear less Metz uses Du Pont Motor Quality Fabrikoid on both it's roadster and touring car, because they, as most of the manufacturers of cars selling un- der SI o00 have found it to be much better than the grade of split leather previously used.
 Gearless transmission has been be- fore the automobile world for many years but, like all exceptionally good things, it had its "doubting Thomases" at first. but has come into its own at lnGk
 In the case of The Gearless Metz, it has gone on the old belief that actions speak louder than words, and it has for many years been doing things that have opened the eyes of the mos tor world

FAIR TODAY AND
 PROBABLY TOMORROW

Metz cars finished first. second and third, and won this coveted trophy. The records of this endurance test show that these Metz cars were the only ones that were equipped with gearless transmission, and this made the automobile owner sit up and take notice.
 It has been this and a series of other eye opening victories, in both endurance and hill climbing contests, that have made previous skeptics re- alize they could not afford to ignore gearless transmission one minute long er and they are now doing just what the Metz company has always wanted, they are asking to be shown what it will do.
 Since the day that the first Metz moved with ease and sureness, there has been a steady increase in the number of people who realize that gearless transmission is not a me- chanical experiment, but is Natures own method of transmission sanely applied to the automobile.

 Next Mondays Paramount feature win bring here once more, pretty Ha- i gel Dawn in My Lady 5ncog, present. ed by the Famous Players company, and in which Miss Dawn appears for the first time as a girl detective. My Lady Incog, privately known as Nell Carroll, is a sympathetic and com polling character, especially appealing because of her self-reliance and cour- ago in facing extreme perils unflinch- fngly. The story contains Q powerful union of intense dramatic situations and amusing episodes, with always the suspense or uncertainty and the excitement which comes from the bat ting of keen intellects for supremacy when the stakes are big. My Lady Incog has all the interest of a mystery story, plus a delicate touch of TO- nance and a dash of comedy that in- amount picture.
 There will be shown also Monday and Tuesday a two-reel Pathe drama and a single reel comedy picture.
