According to c. F. O'Hara, factory
representative of the Hupmobile
company of Nebraska, who has been

MOTOR MAKES THE
WORTH OF AN AUTO
W. L. Killy Explains Why So Much
Reliance May Be Placed on
Saxon.
HOLDS FIRM AGAINST WEAR

Every part of a motor car is i'm
portant, but for theory's sake l will
answer the question of what is the
most important part of an automo-
ble," said w. L. Killy, manager of
the Noyes-Killy Motor company, To-
cal representative of the Saxon Mo-
tor Car company, Of Detroit, Mich,
when he was asked to name the part
of car that is of the greatest in
terest to the prospective motor car
buyer.
ITS the motor that makes the
wheels 60 round" he continued.
What would the motor car be with
out the motor? And the endurance
and power of the engine has the same
relation to the life of an automo-
bile that the human heart has to the
life of the body. If there is a
strong heart in a weak body, the
body props give way and the heart
ceases to function, because there is no
frame to support its action. And
that's the same way with the motor.
1t needs strong frame to support
It and it needs light frame to give
it power.
Busy Gettin Them.
These are two Of the many good
points Of the new series Saxon Six
which Is keeping me busy these DAYS
getting sufficient numbers to supply
the customers. The Saxon Six mo-
tor 10 mighty affair from point of
power-yet 1t isn't heavy and cum
bersome. It's like high developed
and perfect human heart, whose de-
lieate mechanism and power flow has
never been equalled by man-made
machinery. 1t has been approached
IN the Saxon motor. There's steady
flow OF power on low gasoline con-
sumption and a silence and perfect CO.
ordination Of power development.
In the Saxon Six there is also a
frame of lasting durability. 1t isn't
a heavy car, as you know or ought to,
but it. has the toughness that comes
from expert workmanship and high
grade materials which cannot be off
set by the weight that can be added
at the expense of the other points.
Holds Against Wear.
"And while we are talking of the
anatomy of the motor car, the
staunch, well-knit frame of an auto
mobile is as superior against the
damages and breaks of road wear as
the wiry man is against the ravages
of disease and bone breaks compared
to the heavy, powerful, big-boned
man. The wiry fellow is what the
army wants, because he doesn't wear
out. Maybe the big man looks bet
ter on dress parade, but he falls first
under the rigors Of a campaign.
Give me the same in an automo-
bile. Give me light, flexible car,
built with view to power and low
upkeep cost and constructed in
fashion that makes it have the stam-
ina to stand up under heavy travel
and against the difficulties of rough
roads. I would not trade it for the
heavier, bulkier car"

SANDWICHES

In making sandwiches, if butter
is used it should be creamed, and
it spreads better if spread direct
ly ON the loaf before the slice is
cut. Sandwiches may be made hours
before tehy are wanted. They will
keep fresh if wrapped in parafin
paper, on i'm cloth wrung from
hot water. The most important
s'dont" to be observed in making
them is this: Don't ALLOW them to
get dry, or be stingy with the fill

Notes
- II for Our
Bird Club

The voices of the birds are now
stilled. They no. longer wake us in
the mornings with their merry song
and happy trills Many of our sum
mer birds are preparing to leave
us and a large number have re
tired to the woods, the marshes
and swamps
Our house wrens are raising their
seconde brood in the tomato can
under the roof of our back porch.
The young are almost ready to fly
and the weary little mother has
lost much of her sprightliness. Her
bubbling gaity has given place to
much more infrequent and subdued
little trills, but she sticks faitilr
fully to her task of feeding he1
babies. The father bird seems tc
have abandoned his family.
The young woodpecker of the red
headed variety which visits our
feeding shelf seems to think it
was erected especially for him. He
sits Own the comb of the house near
and scolds at the other birds who
dare to come to the shelf for food,
and when it rains and the crumbs
are sodden he grumbles and scolds
continually.
