QUALITY OF SERVICE
index To RELIABILITY
Motor Cars Judged Partly by Attention
Given by Statesmen to Repairs.

Service is the bait with which most Of
the fishing for prospects is done nova
days in the motor field. Also it is the one
thing which the sorely troubled motorist
has to figure with. Nothing enters SO in
timately into his continued enjoyment in
the use of a motor car as the factor Of
service.
Service presupposes a statement Of con-
tentment and the effort to give 1t has
raised problems which even now have not
reached satisfactory state of adjust
ment. As a matter of fact, there does not
seem to be any standard to go on, and
like the problem which confronts the av-
erage dealer in the trading in of used cars
in part payment for new ones. the solu-
ton Is an individual one.
Service. as a whole. has been preached
In the broadest manner. and in the ma
tority of cases with the best intent, but
as far as the owner is concerned, he has
had to be satisfied. more or less, with the
abstract virtues of the gospel.
Preaching service and giving service are
both advantageous from a business stand
point. In the first case, it impresses the
man who has had no experience with the
same significance as the second affects
the man who has.
Wrestling with the service problems is
the most serious task with which the big
retailer OF motor cars has to contend. 1t
is not the ordinary troubles and the STAN
dard remedies for them which cause trou-
BILE. but it is the final solution which will
answer all reasonable demands of the
purchaser.

Light. WEIGHT AUTO
GAINING POPULARITY
Milburn Light Electric Show; Big Saw
ing in Tires. AS

The success Of an automobile depends
almost entirely on the service and pleas
ure derived by the owner in proportion to
the cost Of the machine and its upkeep
charges. With this In view, the aim Of all
motor car manufacturers Is to turn out
automobiles which can be operated at .
minimum expense without destroying the
working efficiency of the product. Hence.
the lightweight car. which has become
% popular during the last year or 30.
The Mifourn Wagon Company, Of To-
ledo. Ohio. was the first among the cleo
trie motor vehicle concerns to adopt the
lightweight type Of car. ''In tire saving
alone. the Milburn Light Electric has
shown itself vastly superior to many Of
the heavier competitors" says Randolph
Bourne, manager of the Milburn Sales
Company. 1T was but a short time ago
that practically all of the electrics ran
on solid tires. Cushion tires on the big
heavy machines were a source of endless
trouble. Today, however, with the i'm
provement in cord tires and our reduction
In weight, tire trouble is a thing of the
past. In fact, all mechanical troubles
have practically been done away with.
Our motor and controller are made espe-
cially for US and so built that they will
stand up against the hardest kind Of
service without faltering. .,r
The elimination of mechanical and tire
trouble Is one Of the reasons why the
Milburn Electric Is becoming more pop
ular every day, Another reason Is that
no other type OF car Is more desirable
for general driving purposes. 1t Is not
only most desirable for women when they
are shopping or calling, but 1t has suf-
ncient power and speed to answer the
requirements of men,"

BENNING AUTO RACES
PLANNED FOR NOV. 80
Entries Rapidly Coming in for Thanks
giving Day Events.

President wilson's proclamation
that Thursday. November 30. has been
officially designated as Thanksgiving
Day was all that was needed to assure
the success of the automobile races on
that date kt Benning race track.
The American Automobile Associa-
tion had given its sanction to the
event, and eleven entries of fast cars
had assured plenty of excitement for
those who would be on hand. There
had been considerable agitation as to
the exact date the President would
name for the days of thanks. A move
ment had been started in the West
to have November 2S named as the
date.
races on Thanksgiving Day. there
will be two motorcycle races. Entry
blanks have been sent to the various
factories which have professional
riders for this sport, and assurances
have been given that the fastest in
the business will be seen at Benning
on Turkey Day.
A new rule will be put in effect at
this meet This Is that no driver Of q
motor car or motorcycle will be per-
mitted to test his car on the track on
the day of the race. Once the cars
come on the track on that day they
must line up at the pit assigned to
them and remain there until called for
their race. This will do away with
much unnecessary delay in starting
the events. The track will be open
for practice in sufficient time before
the day of the race for all to tune
their machines up, and if they fail to
take advantage of the opportunity
they will have no one to blame but
themselves.

ELECTION RETURNS
CARRIED BY MAXWELL
Auto. Heraldins Winners. Crosses Mich
igan in 9 Hours IS Minutes.

In the face of impossible road con-
ditions, stock Maxwell touring car.
driven by Ray Mcnamara, established
a remarkable record the day following
election day. when it pounded it's way
across Michigan, from Detroit to
Kalamazoo and return. in nine hours
and forty-five minutes. The speed
ometer registered $50 miles when the
car was checked in at Detroit at the
conclusion of the run. The average
speed was 35.9 miles per hour.
The route taken follows: Detroit to
Lansing, Lansing to Grand Rapids.
Grand Rapids to Kalamazoo. Kalama-
zoo to Battle Creek. Battle Creek to
jackson. Jackson to Detroit. The run
was officially observed and checked
by Detroit newspaper men.
No mechanical trouble was encoun-
tered. despite the fact that the car
endused terrific pounding on long
stretches of rough road. The only
stop made on the long trip was at
Kalamazoo, where gasoline and oil
were taken on.
Besides establishing a remarkable
record for speed and efficiency, the
Maxwell car took on itself the duties
of a courier. carrying news of the
election results to the rural districts
of Michigan.
In bold, white letters. the body of the
car carried the announcements that Pro-
hibition had carried in Michigan, and
that Sleeper had been elected governor
of the State. The uncertainty In the re-
turns on the Presidential election made
it impossible to announce the winner.
All along the countryside and in the
cities and towns through which the Max
well Courier passed. there was tremend-
Gus interest in the returns.
More than 30 per cent of the road was
in the worst possible shape for touring
There were deep ruts. stretches of sand
and long stretches of fresh gravel. In
several places 1t was necessary to take
long detours because Of construction
work. In view of these adverse condi-
tions. 1t is believed the record made by
Mcnamara and his Maxwell will endure

CHOPAWAMSfC ROAD
TO BE READY JANUARY |
Contractors Expect to Complete High
way a Month in Advance.

There have been varying reports about
the condition of the Washington Rich
mond highway. especially the stretch
known as the Chopawamsic Swamp dis
trict, which has been nationally famous
on account of its condition. To gain first
hand information OF the condition Of this
stretch of road. which Is within forty
miles of Washington. Maynard Bayles,
manager of the Record Auto Company.
accompanied by a representative Of the
Washington Herald, made a trip to this
portgh of the road in a Saxon six-cylin-
der car last Tuesday.
The road from Washington to Dunn
fries is all that the most eXacting motor
ist could expect. Just beyond Dumfries
the first Ct the road builders were met
To date the 800 men employed by Perkin-
son & Flynn. the contractors. have COM
pleted a mile and half of the highway
At the end of this stretch a detour of
half mile is necessary. due to the fact
that the new road is being graded. The
detour takes one back to the Old Tele-
graph road and leads right into the heart
of the swamp. In bad weather this stretch
is very heavy going but can be nego-
tiated. When the weather has been fair
for a short time it dries up, but is
somewhat rough.
The contract for building this road calls
for its completion by the last OF January
but the contractors state that with the
force of men now employed they will be
able to finish the road by the first Of
January.
The Touring Bureau of the American
Automobile Association is directing on an
average of six tourists a day who call
for information as to the best way to 60
south from Washington over this route
and all of them have got through all
right. Many of those who have inquired
in seasons past shipped their cars south
instead Of taking a chance on road con-
ditions.

TIRE CHANGES AT PIT
MAY BE THING OF PAST

The remarkable success Of Goodyear
cord tires in the big automobile racing
events Of the last three months has
caused much speculation as to the fac
tors which affect the durability in these
terrific grinds of speed and endurance
The tire performance in the sport Of au-
tomobile racing is scarcely less inter-
esting than the wonderful skill Of the
drivers and the amazing endurance of
the cars.
The car. the driver, the track and the
weather-all these are variables which
have an important bearing on the tire
behaviour in a big race. OF these the
drivers influence is perhaps the greatest.
He may be the making or the unmaking
Of his tire equipment.
If the performance of Goodyear cord
tires during the last season is to be taken
as criterion 1t would seem that the
tire changes in the pit are soon to be-
come a thing Of the past. Many drivers
have completed the big races on these
tires without making a stop.
