WHY DO YOU LOVE?-Why do I
love? 81 don't know" answers one.
Cease loving, until you have a reason
for it. None but a fool will act with
out reason.
Because l can't help it, says an
other. Those who cannot help it
deserve our pity. Children, idiots
and invaHds cannot help themselves.
Because it is customary" re-

ers all forms Of progression. Most
women would rather let style rule
them than their own hearts and
souls.
A fourth replies: Because it is
natural" Is it natural for man to be
helpless to a woman or anything else
when everything proves that the
stronger and more independent a
man is the more powerful he is. If
he cannot conquer himself he is a
weakling and becomes a slave.

dresses, pearl necklaces, boards, tight
trousers, hard hats and soft heads"
he adds, but human worth"
What constitutes human worth?
Does not every fault have its good
ness? Every day has it's night. Every
key must have its lock. So must
every woman have her mate. The
lock is worthless without the key, the
key worthless without the lock. A
mans talent is locked up unless the
right woman, the key, is used to
bring it forth.
Because a bull breaks through a
fence, is that any reason why we
should kill the bull? The bull
wouldn't be much of a bull if it never
had any strength. So with our
dances-the thing that is the essence
of grace and culture itself-why
should we make it a disgrace, be-
cause some very shrewd men had the
sagacity and foresight to make
slaves Of its patrons.
What we need is just as much sa-
gacity for the ladies and girls as the
devil himself possesses. Then there
would be no occasion for a dreaded
penalty, which occure too often.
What women need is more knowI-
edge, insight and experience.
Why do our good Christians and
clergymen have dances, if it is not to
develop courtesy, culture and So
ciability? The bible says that IA
miliarity is the mother of contempt.
Or we love and admire what we do
not understand
High society dancing is more ad-
mired when cultured people attend, it
seems. If the bible holds true, they
cannot be thoroughly familiar with
the intricate phases of human nature
at such affairs. If they cannot be IA
miliar, how can they talk on the sub
ject? If it is contemplate to them,
then it is because they think they
understand, but don't. This sounds

Mileage Determined by
Lightness and Flexibility

How far II car goes on set of tires
is question of first Importance to the
motorist. To answer it for their prod
uct, the Franklin Automobile Com
pany. has just completed compila-
ton of averages taken from reports re-
ceived from owners in all parts of the
country. The rough going of the west
ern mountain ranges and the scorch-
ing travel through the desert regions
OF the. West are intermingled with
records over the macadam highways
OF the East as well as the tough sand
and mud roads of the South.
The records cover the period begin
ming with 1912 and ending with jan
uary, 1917, five years. The grand
average for these five years is 10,203
miles per set of tires
The Franklin designers explain this
extraordinary mileage briefly, viz:
scientific light weight plus flexible con-
struction.
The Franklin is widely noted for its
ilshtness, the touring car tipping the
beam at 22S0 pounds. with other mod
els proportionately light. This light
ness makes possible n flexible, resilient
type of construction. for light parts
can be allowed much freedom of
movement without danger from rack
ing and straining
Another interesting result of light
weight construction on tire wear is
brought oUt by a well-known inde-
pendent motor authority, who made
an investigation of the load tires are
made to carry. He says: II found
that what was ordinary tire equipment
on some so per cent. of the leading
cars gave Il load per cubic inch of tire
volume of between and pounds.
The Franklin showed the lowest
weight per cubic inch of tire volume,
.S95 pounds"
This lightness in weight relieves the
tires of destructive load, and the re-
siliency softens the blow on the tires.
The remarkably long life of tires is
not the only result. Punctures are rare
and blowouts practically unheard of.

New Super-Six Speedster
Joins Noted Hudson Family

There has been a new birthday in
the famous family of the Hudson
| ESuper-SiXes, said L. II. Hagerling
The new Hudson -Four Passenger
Speedster for which the youthful ele-
ment has watched impatiently since
IL was first announced has at last
been put on the market.
Its chubby sport motor of un-
matched beauty and striking design,
the most spirited in appearance of
any chum car you will see on the
roads during 1917.
Its lines bespeak the f1eetness and
tremendous power which it's Super
Six motor guarantees. This stock
Super-SiN motor in stock chassis has
made speed of 102.53 miles AN nour
1t has driven 1919 miles in "a hours
breaking all records by so per cent
| Twice it has broken the transcon-
tlnental record in one continuous trip
of 1000 miles. 1t is singularly the
motor for a powerful speed car, equal
to any emergency. quick on the pick
up and indefatigable for ranging far
and fast with the utmost security.
Owing to the great demand in all
oar other styles the factory is able
to build only Il limited number of
Speedsters this year. Many orders
have already been placed ahead by
motorists, who know the Hudson prod
uct.
The Speedster is finished in Cobalt
blue with vermilion wheels, and the
beveled body edges are finished in
black. The wheels are 32X4 y inches.
The body is low; the seats are design
ed for lounging comfortably.
Il am confident that the demand
for this car will be so great that the
factory will be unable to keep up with
orders, and as ram desirous of seeing
it well represented in Harrisburg, |
advise those who are seeking a dis
tinctive open motor to by all means
see the Hudson Super-Six Speedster
at an early date"

Sedan Makes an Ideal Car
For Spring Touring

Some of the advantages of the Over
land five passenger sedan. pointed out
by Carl e. Hansen. of the Overland
Harrisburg Co.: CD A front seat
that can be raised making entrance
and exit easier: (2l u door wide en-
ough to permit the passage of the
largest hat, convenience that mi
lady can readily appreciates; (S) win
dows that can be lowered at a mo-
ment's notice.
Unusual activity in the convertible
body type is reported by Carl Hansen,
OF the Overland Harrisburg Company
The first hint of spring, he declares,
has brought forth many inquiries con-
cerning the new types of Willys-O Over
land closed cars
The Willys-O Overland Company. in
Its 1917 comprehensive line of motor
cars. included this new popular type
IN four models, the Overland Big Four
and Light Six five-passenger Sedan
ana the Big Four and Light Six three
passenger coupe. In addition it also
otters a sedan and coupe on WHY'S
knight four chasses. All of these are
equipped with convertible bodies
which can be quickly transformed
from luxurious closed cars to airy,
roof
THE first signs of spring make the
average motorist eager to get out in
the country, Motorists are planning at
this time of the year on short trips
into the country, weekend jaunts and
more extensive tours.
But heretofore there has been one
great disadvantage in spring driving.
That has been the uncertainty of the
weather. y beautiful forenoon might
develop into nasty. disagreeable
afternoon.
Here's where the convertible car
shows to advantage
we Will assume the forenoon is
delightful-arm and sunny. The tour
lists lower the side windows and make
the jaunt into the country in an open
tour car.
suddenly shower comes up. Up
go the windows in trice, and at their
disposal is snug and dry closed car.
No hurry, no confusion, no Tapping
curtains to snap into place.
Then the clouds break away, the
windows are lowered once more, the
automobile again becomes an open
touring car.
Now you can readily see why our
closed car models are exceedingly
popular at this season of the year."

SPIRITUALISTS OBSERVE
FOUNDING ANNIVERSARY
With ALL.DAY PROGRAM

The sixty-n1nth anniversary of
Modern Spiritualism was observed
throughout the United States yester-
day and the Bemidji congregation
celebrated the anniversary by an all
day program in Odd Fellows hall, in
which the congregation took part
together WITH many friends.
The morning services were in
charge of DR.. G.. H. Brooks of Los
Angeles, Calf, missionary at large
for the association, who has been in
Bemidji for the past several weeks.
The day was also to mark the de-
parture of Dr. Brooks to other fields
but the local congregation had taken
the matter up with church officials
and prevailed upon them to allow Dr.
Brooks to stay during the month of
April.
At noon a splendid dinner was
served, a large number participating,
and the ladies of the congregation
demonstrated their ability as culin-
cry artists.
In the evening several members of
the congregation took part in the
services.
