LACKS MANUFACTURING
 kNOWLEDGE

William 4. Law, president of the First National Bank of Philadelphia, has given out an interview in which he is credited with saying that the manufacturer. especially the maker of war munitions, is seriously handicapped by lack Of efficient workers He says rhia has been more and more appar- ent in the finishing of shells and high claea explosive holders and, as d con- scpaeace, there have been many costly reJeetions by the representatives of the foreign governments, for whom the munitions were manufactured.
 Now the fact Of the matter is that the best shells in use by the allies are of American manufacture. and their use is noticeable along the bat tie fronts, on account of their precise fitting of the guns and more exact lathing. Everywhere correspondents make note of the extra quality of the American maiIes of munitions, and in the factories there are practically no rejctionA on account of flaws Not only is this fact assurd by American oyerseers in factories, but by repre- schtatives of foreign governments Whw Law should send out such s statement Is incompreEensibje.

FEW MOTOR CARS
 STORED FUR WINTER


 The stored for the winter" tag on motor ears will be less in evidence throughout the country this year than eyer before according to McArthur Brothers. Dodge Brothers dealer in this city There are several reasons. he says One is the unparalleled busin, ss activity now in prospect, which will require incessant use of the automobile for business men. An other is the gowng impression that the motor car made these days is good enough in any weather" Still another. and perhaps more important, is the development of winter cars to the point whore cost no longer con flicts with comfort
 In other words. the time has ar rived when the average motor car oWn,l Wll net hesitate between shiv ernE through the winter in an open conN eVapce Qr investing in year around comfort nv buying a winter gar. The motorist has come 10 re- saId 1t as an actual economy. Tucked away in the warmth of an enclosed car on his way to the office. he no longer finds it necessary to devote the first half hour of his working une to warning up As one has pu' it. T find wholesome pleasure even in defying the blustry winds, it puts me in good mood for the morning
 Due to conditions such as these, as well as the criterion afforded by the heavy sales of last year, Dodge Both CTS dealers are preparing for an eXcep- tionai demand. They are now in a position 10 supply snug winter cars holh Of the touring and roadster type Slight alterations in the style used last year make it even more desirable both from the standpoint of taste ard comfort The interior is handsomely upholstered in grey and both the roadster and touring car are fitted with a dome light of a pleasant glow Doors fit tightly. but oper easily and rattling Is minimized by eN4ctness If construction. One of the most attractive features of the Dodge Brothers winter ear is the fact that the winter top may be removed with out difficulty thereby sffording an ideal CcnN eyance fo use the year around. Also. hv purchasing a winter ton. wich which the local dealer is now supplied. any owner of a Dodge Brothers touring car or roadster may easily convert his last summers auto mobile into dignified. comfortable closed gar ready to cope with the worst Of weather.
