Calls Cadillac Eight
Best Car From America

so far as my experience goes, l
can pronounce the Cadillac Eight the
best thing in the shape of motor
car that has yet come to us from
the land of the Stars and Stripes
Thus wrote an expert in The Mo-
tor News of Dublin, leading Irish
motor publication. after a run of 40
miles in a Cadillac Eight, through
slush and congested traffic in the
streets of London and over snow
covered roads in the open country.
He goes on:
1T Is to all intents and purposes a
one gear car, as you can use the top
speed (high gear) on anything from
five to over sixty miles an hour. The
acceleration is really wonderful. The
rate at which the car can jump from
a creeping pace up TO mile per
minute was to me a revelation. This
was not my first introduction to the
eight-cylinder engine, having made a
run several years ago in De Dion
with the same number of cylinders.
The one impression left was the
smooth running of the engine. l
described it then as being pulled
along by a cable There was not only
the feeling of sweet and easy run

80 Miles in Paige "Six-51"
in 22 Minutes and 4 Seconds

Bowling along at a steady, un-
varying speed of so miles an hour,
a Paige car. "SiX-51" stock chassis,
covered 80 miles in % minutes and
four seconds in the Cincinnati races
Memorial Day and thus scored dis
tinct achievement that its sponsors
regard as significant.
The event was the 3O-mile invi-
tation race open to stock cars, there
being no restrictions as to motor size.
The regular Paige Isl" model
chassis was used. There was no en-
largement of the motor. no enlarge
ment of the valves. and the crank
shaft and camshaft were the same
as those employed in all 81"
models.
The rear ratio on the rear axle
was changed for greater speed, which
is an alteration that can easily be
made for any purchaser and there
fore not a vital departure from the
regular stock model. The only other
changes were of a similar nature,
such as the addition of a magnetic
for ignition, additional oiling facili-
ties and the tightening of the piston
and connecting rods.
The Paige did not stop at the
pit at any time, and in a field of four
of the best-known cars finished sec
ond In view of the conditions that
prevailed and the open nature of
the race the Paige officials are vast
ly proud of the showing of their
car.

National Cars Strong Among
the American Allies

International patriotism on the
western hemisphere follows the Ma
tional sales flag.
Cuba, the first of the Pan-Amer-
lean republics to support President
Wilson In his declaration of war
against Germany, has purchased
more National Highway Skies ana
Twelves than any other country with
which the National Motor car and
Vehicle Company of Indianapolis.
does an export business. Brazil and
Argentine, which next cast their lot
with the United States in the fight
among the foreign customers of the
National company, while Panama,
which also has allied itself with
Uncle Sam, is fourth. according to
George M. Dickinson, president of
the National company. On the other
hand, Mexico. which is suffering
from German measles as we'll as rev.
olution germs. has very few Ma
tional cars within it's disputed bor-
ders.
In the last twelve months, the ex-
port trade of the National company
has trebled and the factory is send
ing shipments weekly to foreign
countries where it is possible to
make deliveries. National cars are
eXerting a moderniZing influence on
our dependencies. Porto Rico, the
Philippines and Hawaii--and in the
South American Republics, they are
gradually replacing foreign automo-
biles, such as Mercedes and Fiat, in
the affections of Spanish-speaking
motorists, having the power, speed
and artistic body lines that are as
sociated with the exotic creations of
Germany and Italy and which so

WHY DIXON'S QUALIFY

Dixon n-lubricated cars are almost
invariably first across the finish line
in the big racing classics. This has
been fact for so long that one by
one the noted drivers, convinced by
these demonstrations of Dixon de-
pendability, have climbed aboard
the Dixon chariot and use Dixon's
to guarantee freedom from Friction
in the rnotor-marathors. This all
goes to show that Dixon's run true
to form even under the extraordi-
nary strain of 100 miles per hour.
The speed boys know that when
they lubricate with Dixon's they may
dismiss Friction-worries from their
minds.
We don't all drive Peugeot racers,
but everyone who drives. or hires
others to do it, is on the lookout for
anything that means increased mile
age, quieter. smoother, running, less
upkeep cost. Dixon's qualify in a
dependability test, no matter wheth-
er the car is built in the interests
of sport, trade or pleasure.

Present Price of Jefery
Six For a Limited Time


While the present price of The
Jeffery Six cannot be maintained in
definitely, certainly not after the
present stock of raw materials,
which the Nash Motors Company
purchased over year ago at the
then prevailing lower prices, is used
up, nevertheless the Nash Motors
Company is making plans for big
production schedules and, according
to C. B. Voorhis. general sales man,
ager, is confident that unparalleled
prosperity lies just ahead for all
American business, including the au-
tomobile industry.
For the next few years." says
Mr.. Voorhis, America must be the
workshop of the world. Night and
day the smoke will be black above
her factories. The wheels of COM
merce must turn as they never
turned before.
America must feed the world;
she must clothe the world; she must
furnish transportation for the world;
she must be the world warehouse.
"Our lands will produce more
crops, our mines more ore, our fac
tories will double, treble their out
puts.
Prosperity, unparalleled prosper
ity must follow. Billions of dollars
must flow through the channels or
American trade.
Men and women in every branch
of society will make more money,
spend more money than ever before.
They will buy more shoes, more
furniture, more stoves, more homes,
more sewing machines.
"They will buy more automobiles
and even more trucks: so we are
making every preparation to meet
the demand which is sure to come.

1t is the patriotic duty of every
businessman to readjust his business
to meet war conditions so that the
country will be able to give the men
at the front every possible support.
This was the statement made by Ed
ward S. BabcoX, advertising man
ager of the Firestone Tire and Rub
ber Company, following his election
as vice president of the Association
OF National Advertisers at Detroit.
American industries are mobile
and should be able to readjust their
methods and forces to meet these
new conditions" said Mr.. Babcox.
advertising campaigns, carefully
and wisely planned, will be one of
the prime factors in this readjust-
ment, becoming more of force in
modern business than ever. They
will be of greater assistance to the
statesmen and with a well-organized
sales force, business will go on as
usual"
The close relationship of advertis-
ing and selling was brought home to
the convention in a graphic way by
Mr.. Babcox, in exhibiting a motion
picture film entitled. The Link"
which was produced by the Fire
stone Company for the sole purpose
of impressing its sales force with
the immense value of advertising as
q selling argument.

strongly appeal to the luxury-loving
South American.
In fact, the South Americans
have only one fault to find with the
National and that is almost negli-
gible and very easily remedied. The
two standard colors, dark blue and
gray are too sombre for the Latin
peoples, who have a decided leaning
toward yellow and red and give their
boulevards Jacobs coat appear
ance with their brightly painted au-
tomobiles. AS consequence, the
majority of the Nationals sent to
South America are shipped with
only the dull lead printing coat on
them bodies, the maker allowing the
purchaser a discount for painting
which is done after the cars leave
the custom house.

MILLIONS GOING
INTO WAR BONDS
Commissioner Lafean Makes
Some Interesting Comments
on Letters to Governor

State Banking Commissioner Dan
el F. Lafean, to whom were sent
he letters received by Governor Mar
lin G. Brumbaugh in response to the
call made by the Governor upon the
men interested in banking in Penn
sylvania to take up the Liberty Loan
m a manner worthy of the state of
Morris, Girard & Cooke, said to-day
hat judging from the letters, Penn
sylvania would make "a truly mag
nificent subscription" to the bonds.
Mr.. Lafean predicted that the loan
would be oversubscribed in Pennsyl-
vania because the letters he had re-
ceived told of only small part of
the activities of the people of the
commonwealth in behalf of the loan.
Among the letters received by Mr.
Cafean was one from Secretary of
the Treasury w. G. McAdoo of the
Governor thanking him for his ef-
forts, and another from the secre-
tary to the President. Mr.. Lafean
said that the letters he had received
showed Scranton taking far beyond
the s2,00O,000 promised. Lancaster
county oVersubscribing its quota of
IS 900, 900, York county taking
s1,500,0O0 and Williamsport and
vicinity $1,00O,00O. One of the let
ters told of the Lebanon Cemetery
Association taking $4,000. The Oil

mittee of Allentown reported
s700,000 sold in trree days. The
Windber Trust Company reported
on hand subscriptions to the amount
of s1.000,000 and Shamokin reported
S500,000 taken.
Another letter gave S50,000,00 as
an estimate of what would be taken
in Pittsburgh. with the Westing
house Airbrake, Pittsburgh Screw
and Bolt, Lehish Navigation, Mckees-

every Jeffery Six.
1--WE, therefore, purchased our
present stock of raw materials over
a year ago. We were, forced to buy
far in advance and in huge guam
titles.
THE truth of the matter is that
the Jeffery Six was under-priced in
1915 when the present price of ST.
465 was fixed. Now with forty-five
manufacturers who have made price
advances and in the face of raises
which must inevitable follow in the
near future this car represents value
that cannot be secured under S1,7OO.
"Of course we can not hope to
maintain the present price indefi-
nitely. assuredly not after our pres
ent stock of raw materials is eX-
hausted"

constant power as well. My forty
mile run in the new Cadallac. in
and out of traffic. through slush and
repetition of NV previous experience.
ITO use an Americanism, the Cad
lilac is some car, as 1t provides
comfort bordering on luxury, speed
far beyond ones requirement, and
ease of control so simple that a
child could drive 1t. Thanks to a
highly organized factory and an en-
ormous output the American COM
pany is able to put this car on the
market at price that almost defies

Richmond women who conducted the

At the time Mr.. Barnard made his
