NEW 1917 GRANT SIX
NOW Being EXHIBITED
Many Important Improvements Noted
in Latest Product.

The 1911 Grant Six. a big five-passenFef
six with overhead valve motor. is now
being exhibited and three different models
-hve-passehger touring car at SIS. three
passenger roadster at SS25 and three
passenger cabriolet at Sl.O5O-sre being
featured.
This model is by long odds the most
beautifully designed car ever marketed
by the Grant Motor Car Corporation and
expresses in its detail rehnements and
general air Of thorOughness and COM
pleteness new vision Of value for a six
cylinder car Of low price
The new Grant Si1 is officially desig-
mated a model *" The six-cylinder
overhead valve motor which has made
such notable records for power. feEibility
and economy has been retained with
practically no changes.
A Wagner two-unit starting and light
ing system, Remy ignition especially
adapted q Grant Six requirements and a
Stromberg carburetor and willard stor-
age battery are now all features Of the
Grant equipment Instead Of dash Easo-
line storage a 2-gslIon tank in the rear
is used and gasoline Is fed to the car
buretor by means OF the Stewart
vacuum system.
With costs rising IN every branch of
manufacture and a general shortage OF
materials owing TO the vast drains on the
iron, steel, aluminium. brass and other
resources Of the country, il is interesting
TO note that the 1917 Grant Six embodies
all the important features Of practical
merit that have made II such a conspicu-
Gus success together with many notable
improvements in details Of construction.
The Grant Motor Car Corporation il
enjoying a year Of unparalleled prosper
production Of 5000 cars and an unusually
strong. capable executive force backed
by live distributing organization which
includes over 100 dealers in the United
States and all parts Of the world. prom
ises still more rapid forward strides. In
three short years il has moved up into
the ranks Of the great producers.

AMERICAN CARS USED
BY ROYAL MOTORISTS
Scripps-Booth Machines Favored by
European Rulers.

The highest tribute paid an Ameri-
can-made motor car Is the favor In
which the Seripps-B Booth is held by
the royal families of Europe. There
Is hardly a royal garage that does
not house one or more of these luxu-
rious, light cars, and IL II had not
been fer the disturbance of the war
with foreign shipments the number
undoubtedly would be greater.
The striking feature OF this rayal
choice Is that the beautiful little Amer
ican car is chosen for personal use
by their majesties in preference to
far more expensive foreign cars.
King Alfonso of Spain enjoys hand
ling the wheel himself and is fire.
ouently seen on the streets OF Madrid
driving his Scripps-Booth and giving
his attendants a merry chase.
Prince Andre Of Greece IS another
who drives, and he is a familiar sight
in Athens, as is Prince Aage OF Den
mark in Copenhagen. The royal ga
rage at Copenhagen. indeed. has a
complete equipment Of Scripps-Booth
cars, as, in addition to Prince Aage,
Queen Alexandrine and Princess Mar
Erethe both have Scripps-Booths for
their personal use.

OVERLAND AIDS WORK
ON NEVADA HIGHWAY
Gives $4,000 to Improve Famous
Mud Flats"

Far out on the Nevada desert, some
thirty miles from Fallon on the route OF
the Lincoln Highway, lie the famous
mud flats" one of the really great
stumbling blocks in the path Of the trans
continental tourist.
At this point the road scarcely deserves
the name; heavily rutted and furrowed,
with no chance to secure traction on
either side of the existing grade. 1t is
the supreme test of any motor car on
the long trip.
In the future, the tourist is to have no
cause to dread this particular section Of
the western Lincoln Highway Drive. An
improved and permanent roadway is to
stretch across tbs barren waste. The
wheels of thousands of automobiles will
spin over the surface of what is to be
known as THE Willy s-Overland Me-
mortal Section of the Lincoln Highway"
The Willys-Overland Company, of To-
ledo, Ohio, has announced its intention
of joining interests, through the Lincoln
Highway Association, with the State OF
Nevada, in improving this piece of road.
fund Of $4,000 has been contributed
by the Willys-Overland Company, which
will be added to an equal sum to be
raised by the State for the work. The
best of engineering advice is being
sought, and the work, when completed,
will be of the highest standard,
Realizing the Importance of the Lin
coin Highway as one of the nations main
arteries. the Willys-Overland Company
came to the aid of the State Of Nevada,
to whom the burden OF such a construc-
ton as that over the Fallon mud flats
would have been too great at the present
time.
The Willys-Overland Company bears
the distinction of being the hrst big en-
terprise to offer assistance of this kind
to a State for roadbuilding purposes in
time of need.

WRIST-WATCH BOYS
and AUTO GIRLS HIT
Chicago School Board Head Bitterly
Assails Wealthy Students.
Special to The Washington Herald.

Special to The Washington Herald
Chicago, Sept. 23-Indignant words
about the Chicago School Board were
passed over breakfast coffee here today
in fashionable South Side families. They
were brought forth by a statement of
President Jacob NJ. Loeb, of the Board
of Education, in which he said:
Most of the pupils in Hyde Park
High School think only OF automobiles,
dances, silk stockings, and parties There
are too many snobs among them"
Other strong criticisms OF conditions
at Chicago's most fashionable high school
were made at the meeting Of the school
management committee of the Board of
Education.
"on rainy day" President Loeb said,
"one would think big reception was be-
Ing held from the line of automobiles
waiting for girls and wrist-watch boys
who attend this school.
Clothing, jewelry, bicycles, skates,
and other property have been stolen
until the condition Is almost a scandal. -

Is OVERLANDS PRIZES
FOR Sequel TO film
Choice of Car Made by Producer After
Careful Investigation.

To give thirteen Overland cars is the
latest wrinkle in prize contests adopted
by o. +. Goebel, president OF the Con-
sOlidated Film Corporation, which COM
pany is presenting the newest big serial,
The Crimson Stain Mystery" the story
If which is now appearing in The Herald.
The entire United States has been di-
vided into thirteen zones. and for the
best idea submitted for a five-reel sequel
TO its Mystery" picture, in each OF these
thirteen districts. a brand new Overland
car will be given
When the decision was made to give
these cars away. Mr. Goebel decided to
secure the most popular automobile on
the market
Representatives were sent all over the
country to investigate and examine all
sorts OF standard cars. Because of the
great advertising campaign that would
result. In benefit to the makers OF cars,
many attractive offers were made by au-
tomobile manufacturers; the Overland
people. however, did not, deviate from
their policy OF selling their products at a
fixed price. Mr.. Goebel refused to be
Influenced by promises of donations. He
was in the market for the best car. and
refused to take advertising influence into
consideration.
I'VE Investigated thoughtfully and care
fully" said Mr.. Goebel recently. before
we decided upon purchasing thirteen
Overlands. Our one desire was to have
the best car that money could purchase
in the automobile line
Our cast is the best that we could Sc
cure; our production is an elaborate one.
1t was only in keeping with the stand
ard and quality of our big serial that we
should decide upon the Overland cars.
Judging from the letters of congratula-
tions we have been receiving since our
announcement, we have made no mis-
take in our choice"

Each week sees trafic on our roads and

Chairman o. l. Yellott, of the board.
Each day sees hundreds of inexper-

to the already large list of those author

Dixon Firm Makes Car Owners
Problem Simple TO Solve.

The mariner sails by the chart because
he's got TO get somewhere over a vast eT-
psnse OF sameness that has no guide
posts or trees or 'landmarkE' TO keep
him straight.
Just as valuable to the auto owner is
the chart the Dixon people, OF Jersey,
issue for the guidance OF the car owner
in lubricating his car. With this, he can't
go wrong. Every part Of every car needs
fabrication exactly fitted TO its own pc
CulIarities. No man can know them all.
This chart takes care Of all these prob
lens All the car owner has TO do is to
ind where his car is listed and follow
instructions. Simple as A B c But
it's the simplicity that counts. In order
10 reach the car owners quickest and in
the most logical manner. these charts are
being given out through the auto supply
dealers Of the country. There is no
charge for them whatever.
