UP SIGNAL
 MOUNTAIN 0N HIGH
New Eight-Cylinder Car Does ChattanoOga's Stiff
 est Climb With Ease

Different communities usually have diff ferent standards, to certain extent, by which to judge motor car performance. In flat or level sections of the country, with good roads, for example, people are interested chiefly in a cars powers of acceleration, it's speed and like fea- lures. Where the roads are not so good people look especially for stamina and the ability to negotiate rough going with ease and comfort. Power and hill climb ing ability, in addition to the forego- ing, are among the qualities chiefly sought in hilly or mountainous country.
 Chattanooga, Tenn, is in such a sec ton, and it's. favorite climb is Signal mountain. If 8 car makes the Signal mountain climb on high gear, as the new Cadillac eight did the other day, it Is given hundred per cent rating in public estimation.
 The Cadillac was fresh from the fac- tory, having been driven but little more than 90 miles. From the heart of Chat tanoosa to the crest of Signal mountain was made on high gear. The pace at the beginning of the climb was three miles an hour. On the way up several difficulties were encountered in the way of a partly blockaded roadway and meet ing several downcoming cars at sharp, steep turns. Yet 1t was not necessary at any time to shift gears.

NEW OVERLAND CAR FOR FAST DELIVERY New Panel Delivery Car, With Modern Equipment,
 Put on Market

Business men are talking about the new Overland model 75-B Panel Delivery car, which the Willys- Overland company of Toledo, O., has just put on the market at S625 f. o. b. Toledo. In spite of such unusual advantages in low-priced deliv- cry cars it has a 311s horse power and en bloc motor, electric starting and light ing system and large 31x4-inch tires. This model marks another step in motor de- livery, and has been the means of adding many more names to the list of mer-' chants who believe in motorized delivery
 Abundance of carrying room, strength, every convenience for quick and depend able delivery, and the greatest possible margin of power at minimum expense arc tre striking features of this new light delivery vehicle It gives its owner more than 7S feet of cubic loading space back of the car. As the drivers seat extends only half way across the car there is ad- ditional available space extending clear to the toe board if required. The whole length of the flodr on that side of the car is 37 inches.
 Notwithstanding it's large carrying ca pacity and substantial build, the Over land Model 75-B delivery car retains the advantages of being light and compactly built, with short turning radius, making it easy to handle through densest traffic or on open roads.
 Demonstrations have proved that it is unusually economical to operate and maintain. Thorough tests have shown that it will run in continuous service at cost of cent or less per mile for gas- oline and oil. Features that will espe- cially commend 1t for retail or light package delivery service are the espe- cially constructed springs adapted for tho carrying of heavy loads.

WELDON BACK FROM
 SALES CONVENTION
Firestone Local Manager Says This Years Conven-
 ton Greatest Ever

Back from Akron, O., where with his salesmen he attended the annual sales convention of the Firestone Tire and Rubber company, J. E. Weldon, local branch manager, reports that it was easily the greatest convention ever held by his company.
 ''The convention lasted for three days, October IT, IS and 19, and was attended by over 500 Ffrestone men from all over the world" says Mir. Weldon. ''We all have come back to the firing line filled with valuable information on tire prob lems and new business methods for sell ing Firestone tires. The daily confer ences with all our men in attendance were held in the clubhouse, just finished at a cost of over $300,0o0. This structure is for the use of all Firestone employees These meetings have given each man abundant material for furthcring Fire stone sales.
 Much of the time was spent in the mammoth factories where we saw the latest and most modern tire machinery in operation. Here were hundreds of tons of crude rubber, used at the rate of 100000 pounds per day. This rubber instead of being bought from brokers III LH6 TQUUtT pOTlS IS UOuS dI 6d- pore and shipped direct to Akron, there by effecting a saving of from to 5 cents per pound
 ''In the intimate study of business con- ditions in general and tire problems in particular we gained much valuable data. This information will in turn be given by each salesman to the customers in his territory. Thus the tire user Is the ultimate gainer It all results In better service for motorists everywhere More over, it means a better and more eff cient organization and we of the branch here feel more than. repaid for our three days spent at Akron.
 "The social side of this convention was not leglected," continues Mir. Weldon, flor dinners and banquets at local ho- tels and theatre parties were included. However, serious business was dominant throughout and company officials are unanimously agreed that in point of at tendance, interest aroused and results accomplished it was the greatest conven- ton in the history of the Firestone com pany.'

 car. The policy will be the same as 1t has been in the past. The best possible for the price. The Chandler has been a successful firm from the beginning. It's product met with instant approval upon being placed on the market in the face of all sorts of competition. Merit won and the result is that the demand for Chandeliers today is so great that the fac tory facilities have had to be made larger with each year of success
 The Chandler has the 'marvelous mo- tor. The ignition is furnished by Bosch high tension magneto, no better at any price. Gray and Davis, separate unit starting and lighting system is used. This Is a standard product embodying the highest electrical engineering prin- cipals. The solid cast aluminium motor base cannot be surpassed in any car.
 "In short, the Chandler will be the same car Is being gold at present. and the policy of the company in announcing a rise in price is merely to inform the automobile buying public instead of rais- ing the price without any warning.
 ITO buy a Chandler now Is to save lot of money now" concluded MT. Craw- ford.

DODGE BROTHERS
 TESTSLUbR|CATION
Dodge Brothers Car Own CTS Are Assured That
 Mechanism Is Protected

At the plant of Dodge Brothers not only is every bit of material carefully tested in every possible manner but grease and oils must conform to 8 high standard to assure the proper running of the car mechanism after the car goes to an owner.
 For instance, the grease used in the transmission and in the axles of Dodge Brothers cars has been sub jected to tests which prove how 1t will act under all conditions of driv- ing.
 In recent tests a transmission and . rear axle packed with grease were left in 8 cold storage room with a temperature below zero for several days and the mechanism then re- moved and the grease examined to ascertain how 1t stood the extreme cold.
 Among the other tests which the grease candidate must survive is the dynamometer test.
 The dynamometer itself Is a device which applies heavy load against the engine and at the same time meas ures that load which is ordinarily greater than the average five-passen ger weight. Two transmissions are used, one placed directly adjacent to the engine and the other about 10 feet away. On the one, effect of the engine heat is a factor in the experi- ment, and in the the other it is not. The brake on the side nearest the wall is set, bringing the differential into con stant play The test Is made either both transmission and rear axle, or with different kinds. By reversing and gearing up the outer transmits sion, a tremendous force is obtained, thereby affording opportunity to ob- stTve the greases under high pres- sure. Three thermometers are placed close to the parts in which the greases ar being treated, to record the heat produced by friction.
 If the mercury rises to any great extent above the temperature in the room, which is unvarylng. the verdict is against the grease, for where there is heat there is friction and where there is friction there is loss of en- ergy. While the test is in progress the transmission plate Is displaced by celluioid covering through which the adhesive qualities of the grease may be observed. The final purpose of the test Is to determine if a grease re- tains it's original consistency after it is subjected to a severe treatment.
 The dynamometer test further dem onstrates that no one could make a more earnest effort to do things right than is made by Dodge Brothers.
