Perhaps the greatest single adj
yancement in motorcar construction
the last year has been in the redgc
zion OF weight. AT least no improve
ment whicir1as come up during 1916
appears to have made such a lasting
impression on the future Of the an
tomobile business. There is no doubt
that the new lightweight models OF
1916 will have a marked influence and
that the approval of automobile en-
gineers viii be shown by the intro
duetion Of more lightweight cars dur
ing the next few seasons.

Heavy snowfalls followed by biting
cold weather on all the battlefronts
have helped rather than hindered the
fighting. During the past 4S hours,
the weather man seemingly has been
entirely impartial, for the cold snap
which in the northeast has enabled
the Russians to cross the swamps be-
tween Riga and Dvinsk and to attack
the German positions, also has made
it possible for the Germans in Rou-
mania to approach Galatz, which ordi-
narily is protected by swamps.
IL the west intensely cold weather
has been accompanied only partly by
clear atmosphere, enabling the fly
ers to resume their activity. Neither
side, however, has been specially fa-
vored. Artillery duels have increas-
ed at frequent intervals all along the
line from the coast to the Swiss bor-
der.
