"They talk about woman's sphere
AS though it had a limit;
There's not a place in earth or
Heaven,
There's not task to mankind given,
There's not blessing nor a woe,
There's not whispered yes or no.
There's not life, or death or birth,
There's not featherweight of worth
Without a woman's in it,"
Club calendars, church society pro-

be welcome in this column.

AUTO INDUSTRY
 FACES 4 CRAVE
 SITUATION NOW

"The automobile industry faces q rather complex situation for 1918, and there is consequently more than the usual interest in the annual shows" says an official of the kissel Auto company. local Dort agency.
 There is no question about the market for cars--it will be the most fertile of any year in the history of the industry. This is the opinion of every sales expert who has looked thoroughly into present conditions and prospects.
 There is likewise no doubt that the supply of cars will be considerably cur tailed, and therefore nowhere near equal to the demand.
 When what is known as program No. is let loose at the present session of congress. billions of government money will begin to return to the peo- pie This can mean but one thing prosperity.
 'The farmer already has less cause for financial uneasiness than ever be- fore. He can sell every sprout he raises and at practically. guaranteed price He belongs to one of the num- erous and growing classes to whom motor cars are absolutely necessary to the proper conduct of business af- fairs.
 This inevitable prosperity of the farmer will soon be passed around. Every man and woman who wants work may have it; manufacturers that plan wisely can, with a few eXcep- tions, keep their wheels turning on government work. if not on their own product; it follows that retail mer- chants will be busy; in fact that all sorts of wideawake people will cash in
 All these classes are alive to the essential importance of the automobile It is an indispensable factor in the conduct of modern affairs, as vital in fact as the telephone, the typewriter or any other instrumentality that cuts ! down time and encourages endeavor
 The question then is how to build cars enough to go around. How near ly this can be done is a problem that rests largely with the government. Officialdom now recognizes fully the desirability of giving the public all the cars it needs, but on the other hand it must to a certain extent depend upon the automobile factories for the manu- | facture of munitions.
 Personally, 1 believe that the out put of cars in 1918 will be about 65 per cent to 70 per cent of normal, and that there will be three buyers waiting for every good car turned out from factory gates

TRIP MADE IN
 LIBERTY 'S|X'
 |SREMARKAb[E
TOUR OF LOWER CALIFORNIA COMPLETED IN RECORD
 BREAKING TIME

A tour of investigation through the northern district of Lower California undertaken by Mary White, writer, authoress and investigator, and her party, was recently completed in five passenger Liberty Six which had been purchased from the C. E. Nichols Motor company of San Diego.
 The party consisted of Mary White, who secured the information about ''Baja' California and whose remark able articles on that country have been widely read; w. B. Felix, driver; H. Bolanos, the official photographer of the government of Lower Califor- mia, and Walter Knox, who represented the progress and education committee in charge of the securing and compil- ing of data.
 The tour was made In the interest of the San Diego Tribune, and as they state, was prompted by general lack of knowledge ill regard to that Won- derfully promising region with it's actual and potential rcihes in live stock, agricultural yields, and the pro- ducts of mining and other industries" The results of the writer's observation and inspection were featured in an in- tensely interesting supplement of the Tribune which contained not only wealth of information about the terri tory traversed but a ell-deserved tri- bute to the Liberty Six in which tho trip was made, as-Well
 The performance of the Liberty is thus described by the Tribune:
 At the finish no more enthusiastio al party could be though of than tha Mary White group that had gone through five days. of intensely varied | country. A trip over the most varied | of roadways, over boulevards, through l deep sands, over steep grades and un- | der most trying conditions. had been | made at high speed in the Liberty Six | and was completed without accident or | repair of any nature.
 '1t would seem that the very motor 1 of the Liberty had imbibed some of the enthusiasm itself for during the | entire trip not a miss was recorded nor was there any peculiar sound dis covere dthat would cause d driver to l look for d little trouble
 The car was in no manner specially l prepared for the Baja California trip. On the other hand regular stock Liberty Six touring car was loaded down with four passengers and eight i personal and photographic grips and suit cases and taking the bit in it's
 teeth, it dared venture into that terri
 tory which is supposed to be the driv- | ing grounds of the biggest cars or of
 the very small cars
 During this great run of five days
 only one puncture and no other forms of trouble were encountered, and every . body who heard of the Liberty and it's
 work marveled at its performance It
 certainly proved itself an exceptionally
 able car that mastered its job we'll"

ECONOMY OF AUTO
 |S KEEPING PACE
 WITH TIE TIMES

Notwithstanding the unusual con- ditions which the New Year brings" says Jos. McAleer of the Kissel Auto company, i've look for very satis- factory business during the coming year.
 "The necessity of employing the au- tomobile to facilitate the increased business and patriotic activities has caused the manufacturers to add those features that make the automobile as efficient and economical as possible.
 In the face of unprecedented man. ufacturing difficulties it is one of the wonders of the age how the manu- lecturers can continue to give such genuine value in motor cars for con- paratively moderate prices. This fact will be emphasized more than ever in the new models at the New York and Chicago Automobile shows next month.
 Also, it is noticeable that automo- bile dealers are rendering better and more complete service, the extent and scope of which has never been offered before This is possible because deal CTS are selling a utility that has be- come an economic necessity. Realizing this, the progressive dealer has put his business house in order so that he can take care of his customers re- quirements in an efficient manner"

IRudoliph Tells
 Foundation of
 lF0rd's Success

Ed Rudolph attributes the won derfuI growth of the Ford Motor company and the parallel popular ity of the Ford car to the fact that when repairs or adjustments are needed, owners of Ford cars do not, as a rule, suffer from poorly trained mechanics.
 MT. Rudolph calls attention to an article in a recent issue of the Automobile Trade Journal anent this subject to the effect that many of us who would not let anyone but an experienced jeweIer repair our watches, and certainly would have none but competent physicians if we were sick, will trust such an expensive piece Of machinery as a motor car into hands of un- known skill. Who is there that drives car that does not know what this means? The worst of it is that owners of cars are poWerless to help themselves, for, in many cases they cannot tell when a re- pair shop is to be trusted as haV- ing good mechanics. Good and bad are often found in the same shop.
 How to correct this evil is a large question. MT. Rudolph IS Of the opinion that manufacturers and dealers in general should get to- gether on this proposition as does the Ford company and it's dealers, and work out means whereby some thing may be done to improve the standard of automobile mechanics the country over.
 He attributes the phenomenal growth of his repair shop partly to specialization. He has found it an easy matter to make a specialist out of an expert mechanic when the man is working on nothing but Fords. He has followed the prac- tice of finding out what particu- lar kind of work a mechanic is best adapted for, and then giving the man special training along that particular line.

 "CompIiments of Messner," are the words printed in gold upon blue background. Mrs. Hegeman made the costume herself. It consists of pointed cap, cape, short skirt and trouserettes, much after the fashion of the array worn by the Turkish women.
 The judges declared the outfit to be one of the most unique and at tractive of any they had ever seen. The costume was the hit of the evening.

Cadillac cars selling like hot cakes" is literally true as applied to the record made by the Rabbit Poison company since taking over the agency for the popular makes.
 Wednesday carload of "Cads" was unIoaded and taken to the new salesroom across the street from the main office of the company. At 10 o'clock the next morning every one of the cars had been sold. 1t took just 40 minutes to unload the shipment, and one night to dis pose of the cars.
