the owners have no fear of sudden
changes in temperature or rain storms

new war AIRPLANES
BOOST CYLINDER CARS
National Twelves Prove to Be
Topnotch Machines.

Throughout the country there has
been a general increase in the de-
mand for twelve-cylinder cars. since
the announcement that the famous
war airplanes are to be equipped with
the 'V" type motors. The airplane
seems destined to play a very i'm
portant part in the war, and Amer
ica's airplanes will be the means
whereby American troops will be so
effective.
Airplanes are becoming very popu-
lar with the American public. This
popularity is evidenced by the unu-
sual interest being shown in con-
nection with the National twelve
cylinder car which Is equipped with
an airplane type motor. The Ma
tional factory has a long-standing
reputation for building high-power
motors.
In early days, when automobile rae
ing was done with stock cars, Ma
tional was a consistent winner and
acquired the title OF the World Stock
Car Champion. National was the
first to put a six-cylinder car on the
market and they were pioneers with
twelve-cylinder motor cars. Riding
in the National Twelve-cylinders is
nearest approach one can make to
airplane riding and still stay on the
ground.

LIBERTY MOTOR PLANT
PUTS OUT A NEW CAR

The Liberty Motor Car Company, of
Detroit. has announced the addition OF
a two-passenger roadster to the lib

The new car has been brought out
in response to the demand from Lib
erty dealers in all sections OF the
country and it is predicted the two
passenger roadster will meet with the
same ready favor as other Liberty
models. ~
The new Liberty two-passenger road
ster has a wheel base OF lis inches and
is built on the perfected liberty chas-
sis which has been adopted as a stand
ard because of its simplicity and free
dom from unnecessary working parts.
All of the features of owner interest
which have characterized other Lib
erty models have been incorporated in
! the new liberty two-passenger road
ster and the company's policy to build
high-grade cars OF moderate size and
price have been carried out in its pro-

CLOSED CAR IS NOT

Haynes Sales Manager Says That

That 1918 will go down In the his
tory of the motor car Industry as a
great enclosed car year. is the pre-
diction of s. NJ. How, general sales
manager of the Haynes Automobile
Company, Kokomo. Ind. The Haynes
Company has made extensive prep
aration for 1t and has announced its
most complete line of enclosed mod
els. The Haynes 1918 line comprises
all-season sedans. coupes and town
cars, embodying the latest modes in
motordom.
There was a time not so very long
ago when the closed car was looked
on as an out and out luxury" says
Mr.. How. but with the evolution of
the ali-season feature that conception
has practically disappeared.
People have been quick to see the
value OF a car that will give summer
comfort to winter driving, and yet not
sacrifice any of the advantages OF an
open car when the weather is fine. II

Detroit Pair Back From Long
Ride in Cadillac.

Mr.. and Mrs. Bert Mayo recently
landed in San Francisco from Homo
lulu, bringing with them a Cadillac
car in which they have toured more
than 10000 miles in Oriental coun-
tries.
More than three and a half years
ago Mr.. and Mrs. Mayo started from
Detroit in their new car for Van
couver. whence they sailed for Homo
lulu. From there they went on to
China, Japan. Australia. South Africa
and New Zealand.
In Japan they found only one road
of any length, which traverses the is
land of Yeddo from one end to the
other.
The tourists spent more of their
time in Australia than in any other
country they visited. Here they found
the roads comparable with the dirt
roads OF America. They are good in
summer, but next to impossible in
the rainy season. Mr.. Mayo under
took a trip of 90 miles against the
advice of the natives. with the result
that he drove 80 miles of it through
rain, and through mud which for the
greater part of the distance was hub

New York Mas Clearing
House for Hotel Seekers
Coming to Auto Show

The thousands of visitors who will
Journey to New York from all parts
of the country for the National Au-
tomobile Show next January will
have little or no trouble to find hotel
accommodations. In former years
it was practically impossible to secure
rooms in the better known hotels
during show week.
At meeting of the executive COM
mittee of the Hotel Association Of
New York. held at the Grand Cen
trail Palace, where the National Hotel
Mems Exposition will be held No
vember L, a hotel clearing house was
established, which is to be kept open
every night until midnight, with the
exception of Sundays.
Visitors to New York for the auto
show, or for any occasion, who ar
rive here to find the principal hotels
full, may telephone the clearing
house. Madison Square, 400. and be
directed to accommodations at other
hotels.
Thomas d. Green. president Of the
Hotel Association, in speaking OF the
present conditions, said: AT certain
periods during the year, the holding
of large conventions, exhibits like
the auto show. ETC.. bring a number
of visitors into this city. Hotels
that are best known secure most Of
this trade. and the result is that
for brief time a certain overcrowd-
ed condition exists. Naturally. hotels
in the central sections secure the
bulk of this business, and the gen.
eral impression is that because these
hotels are full, every other one in
the city also has all OF its rooms
taken. If visitors will call up the
association headquarters, every ef-
fort will be made to find acommo-
dations for them in hotels belonging
to the association"
At the annual convention of the
hotel men to be held at the time of
the National Hotel Mems Exposi-
ton. the automobile show will be
one of the subjects discussed. About
l,jOO leading hotel men Of the coun-
try will attend the convention and
exposition. coming from all parts of
the country by special trains.
