Saxon Factory Is
Up To Minute Plant

"The modern up-tO-taeminute me-
chlnical facilities for handling material
from the moment that it is unlOaded on
the freight dock until it is assembled in
the finished product are a constant rev
elatiOn to the visitor at the Saxon fac
tory, says Mr.. r. C. Getsinger, Sales
Manager Of the Saxon Motor Car com
pany.
"Our electric hoist conveys the bodies
motors, tops, etc, into tHe factory
from the freight docks and in majori-
ty Of cases directly to their individual
departments. The bodies, after pass
ing through the finishing department,
are conveyed by an air hoist over a
mOnorail system directly to the as
sembling floor. The frame, after be-
ing received and painted, is raised and
carried by pneumatic hoist to an as
sembling track where actual construe
tion begins. The wheels fully assem-
bled with rims and tires are carried by
/ gravity conveying system to tine as
sembling floor from the tire and wheel
departments. After placing the wheels
on the frames, the incomplete chassis
is then hooked to an endless conveying
chain which is in continual motion,
passing along the entire assembling
floor The motor is then dropped into
place after being conveyed from the
motor department by a monOrail system.
At the proper interval the body is pllc-
ed on the completed chassis, after arriv-
ing from the finishing department by
similar overhead system. After the
car arrives at the end of the assembling
floor it is started under its own power,
ready for final, testing and inspection,
ultimately arriving at its final destina
tion.
''This wonderfully efficient method
of carrying material saves the Saxon.
Motor Car company an immense amount
of time and labor and is one of the nu-
merous reasons why the Saxn company
can offer its fully equipped six.cylin-
der ear at $7S5.OO, and four-cylinder
ear at $395.0O with features found in
no other ear selling for less than S4OO. "

letter. She acknowledged that she signed the letter but stated that she did not write 1t,
 One of the points upon which there was considerable testimony was as to what Rev. Mir Dennis had said at the church when the allegations against him and Mrs. Mcknight were spoken Of Several of the women witnesses testified that he had said in effect that if Mrs Dennis found no fault and if Mir. Mcknight found no fault, it was nobody e1se's business.
 When Rev. MT. Dennis was put on the stand and denied that he said any such thing subdued rnnrTnurs of "oh! Ohi Oh!" ran around the crowded court room. He testified that what he said was that it wAsri't the business of the church but it could be settled by law if Mrs. Dennis and Mir. Me- Knight were not satisfed.
 Tn defense of Mrs. Cole action in connection with the letter the claim was that it could not be shown there was any malice which could justify the libel charge but that there were extenuatirg circumstances and that there was also justification on the ground that what was stated in the letter was true.
 Judge Barnes said in giving sen tence that he was satisfied from the evidence that it hadn't been shown that the minister was sguilty of the crime charged. He fined Mrs. Cole $10 and costs

Taking Care ef Sewing Machine.

After every two days of steady work oil the machine thoroughly, but be careful to wipe away all the super nuous oil. Run the machine rapidly, but steadily, without any thread, for five minutes after oiling. This will cause the oil to scatter, and the su- perhuous drops can be wiped away and none left to stain the material on which you arc working.
