An important factor at present,
is the number of women who are
driving and operating cars. For
merly, the woman felt that it was
almost impossible for her to take
up the different items she wished
adjusted, for she contantly had the
idea in mind that advantage would
be taken of her because she was a
woman, and had no man 10 "fgnt
her battles" To-day conditions are
such that her wants can be attended
TO, and courteous and fair treat
ment are melted out without the and
of the stronger sex. This is just
one more instance Of the great
change that has taken place, and
of the better and closer feeling
which exists between the owner and
the manufacturer.
When you consider that the aver
age owner is a novice, and that he
understands very little about the
workings of a car, it seems to me
that the unsavory reputation ac-
quired in the early days of automo-
bile manufacturing should be lived
down. For the owner is entirely IN
the hands of the makers, and that
he is being dealt with fairly to-day,
can surely be judged by the ire
mendous strides and ever increas-
ing popularity Of automobiles. 1t
is trite to say that we are living in
an advanced age. So why not place
credit where it belongs and realize
that the old and crude ways ex-
cept in rare cases have been sup
planted by up to date business
methods?
The automobile owner of to-day
is as a rule, wide awake business

as it was 5 o'clock, they inquired
for good roads that would lead them
back to the city. They were sent
up through Florida to Goshen over
splendid roads, and through that
ever beautiful, restful country.
They followed the road through
Chester to Tuxedo, passing Harri-
man and other pretty villages on the
way. The roads were beautiful, as
smooth as glass and overhung with
graceful, swaying trees. They were
running a race with the sunset,
which was painting the sky with
rich tones of blue and gold.

A technical mind trained to fig
ures simply can't help translating
anything into statistical terms, and
the recent record-bseaking trans
continental trip of the Cadillac
Eight furnished the opportunity
OF a lifetime to the technical men
in the Cadillac plant. The result IS
a mass of intensely interesting
data based on the distance covered
by the car, 3,97l.8 miles.
For example, it is found that #
the power generated by the engine
in its long drive could be cOncen-
trated in one tremendous impulse
ii would amount to 307,500 horse
power. This, if concentrated and
used in the space of one minute,
would be sufficient to lift the car
and its two passengers fifty miles
into the air-which speed would be
ar the rate of 5000 miles an hour.
1t is found, further, that The
crank-shaft made more than 9,445,-
600 revolutions-yet there was no
visible wear on its bearings and 10
adjustment Of the bearings could
be made. For the second hand of
watch to make an equal number
of revolutions would require eigh-
teen years of continuous running
and the watch would have to be
wound $500 times.
Pierce-Arrow quality is so much

from the Buffalo factory.
At a recent session of various
Pierce-Arrow agents from all over

cussion the question of used cars

I think is in one of my springs.
How can | locate it and stop 1t?
Listen to see whether it is in the
front or the rear, and then deter
mine which side it is on. 1t may
be in the shackle, or the shackIe
bolt. Take the shackle bolt out and
put a little grease in. Then if it
still squeaks, jack up the car, pry
the leaves apart and put graphite
grease in. This will be pretty sure
to eliminate the trouble.

The man with the yellow tag
he's the fellow that carries the ban
ner of gloom for the workmen in
the factory of the Oakland Motor
Car Company at Pontiac. Officially
he is known by the dignified title
of inspector" but his real name
is Mister Sorrow"
For a little yellow tag, tied to a
car or part, means rejection.
Viewed from the standpoint of the
motor car buyer, the yellow tag is
an insurance policy which keeps
the motorist from getting an Oak
land motor car which is not up to
the high standard set by its makers.
AS a result Of the death of Pres
ident Yuan Shih-kai, the Chinese
government has cabled c. c. Flu, a
young Chinese engineer, who has
been taking a course Of instruction
in the Kenosha works of the Thorn
as b. Jeffery Company, to return
at once to his native land.
Mr.. Flu, a graduate of the Uni
versity of Michigan, was sent TO the
Jeffrey company last February. He
donned overalls and jumper with
the willingness characteristic Of
the race and started to work his
way through the various depart
ments. A few weeks ago he was
transferred to the export sales de-
partment, under J. A. Rose, and
was demonstrating there, equally
as well as he had in the shops, his
ready grasp Of things.

With such suggestion. l do not agree; in fact, am confident that not Member of the Ways and Means Committee. either Democrat or Re publican, would support such a pronosi- ton. nor do think there is a Mem bcr in Congress who would support it, Congress, from the #begina;ng of  the Government never undertook to tax lands.

Two Boys Get Liberty
Two Others Are Held

Floyd Warner and Alton Newberry
today appeared before the juvenile
court for examination concerning their
activities with band of boys who
have been rifling the lockers at the
willamette university gymnasium. In
view Of the fact that the lads had not
been before the court before, leniency
was granted and they were allowed to
60 on promise Of future good be-
havior.
Truxton Beck, another Of the gang
taken into custody yesterday by the
authorities, was committed to the re-
form school and was Immediately taken
to the school, He has been implicated
in other depredations.
Forrest Walker, the Indian lad who
was ring leader Of the gang, spent
most of the day marching up and
down in the city Jail He had re-
moved his shoes and stockings and CON
stantly paced the floor, His case will
probably come before the grand jury.
For several years past Walker has
given the authorities trouble, Three
years ago he and other lads got into a
gun fight with Chief of Police Welsh,
then a patrolman, and Patrolman Irv-
ing when the police attempted to arr
rest them for stealing Walker was
sent to the Chemawa school but proved
too much for the authorities there.
