 The new, long underslung rear springs and wheelbase six inches longer than last years car made the 1918 Maxwell easy to drive and to maintain maximum speed over the rough roads, as well as the smooth highways. This along with the quick acceleratfon, easy steering and eff cient brakes made it possible for one driver ard observer to ride the en- tire distance without any discomfort. Though fatgued from lack of sleep, McNamara declared after finishing the trip that he could easily have driven another 200 miles to bring the length of the run over the 1000 mile mark. He also said that he believed the car would have covered the dis tance between Detroit, Indianapolis, Chicago and Detroit in 21 hours at the most had fair weather conditions been encountered instead of the rain and mud the record breaker came in contact with.

GIRL FOUGHT IN TRENCHES
Served for Eighteen Months and Took
Part In Thirty Battles Against
the Invaders.

The Polish people have gained
strength instead Of despair, says a
writer in a personal narrative Of her
visit to devastated Poland. Still, she
says, the women walk through the
streets with tired aspect and sad
faces. They know the bitterness Of
war without experiencing any Of its
excitement and glamor. They had
not had the opportunity which came
to Kazia Novak, a girl twenty
years old, to go out and fight for
Poland.
"Kazia, whom / met in Cracow at
the tesroom established for conva-
lescent legionaries, has fought in 30
battles against the enemy. She was
carried away by the general enthusi-
asm which swept through Poland
when the city was still in the hands
of the cars forces. Kazia escaped
being wounded, but from staying for
days at a stretch in water-flled
trenches, was attacked by rheuma-
tism. Hence her appearance among
the Polish convalescents at Cracow,
where a wealthy woman who had
worked for the welfare of the wound
ed soldiers from the beginning of the
war, met her and verified her story.
To look at Kazia, one would not
suspect her of possessing the strength
and courage which are needed by a
woman soldier, for she is timid of
glance and delicate of feature. She
served for 1S months in the field"
