To the Men of Vermont:

n military reservation, Fort Ethan Allen,

a nnent to-day is only las more than

n The war department authorizes Ma
Y tional Guard units to be recruitedd to
i war strength. 1t is expected that
athis will be done by volunteer enlist
ment. The regiment needs 900 men,
\ and urgently request this number of
i volunteers to enlist at once. This reg

only and will not interfere In any way
! with recruiting for the 1st infantry
The home guard is intended to give
opportunity for service at home to men
. who are not available for duty abroad
The fact that a man registered on
June 5. 1917 under the federal law
sdoes not prevent his enlisting in the

or in any other recognized military
or naval force of the country.
4 Arrangements have been made by
the federal government so that re-
cruits for the LIST Vermont infantry
can be accepted at any of the follow
ing places:

Perhaps the Most Elaborate Enclosed
Car Manufactured.

The occasional desire OF many mo-

IL responsible for the development
of a type Of body which has already
been accepted rs one of the standard
types of limousine. Several months
ago Edward S. Jordan, builder of
the Jordan cars. conceived what he
calls the sport Limousine, which COM
bined in one and the same car the
leading features OF both tho popular
sedan and the more exclusive limou-
sine. This car was designed primarily
as a special Job for one or two Jordan
dealers. but quickly became so popular
that Il Is now one of the feature cars
of the Jordan line.
by means OF n broad one piece dis
appearing glass partition between the
front and rear seats, Mr. Jordan has
made II possible either TO exclude The
driver or make him q member OF the
remainder of the party. With the
partition down, the owner may drive
and still be among his guests. With
II up. the chauffeur is In compart-
mcnt of his own, fully protected from
the elements. Such construction is
possible today only with the aluminium
bodies which Mr.. Jordan insists upon
putting on his cars despite the tre-
mendous advances I'm the cost OF this
material. With heavier bodies, II Is
not practical TO add the extra weight
OF a partition. The Jordan sport
Limousine complete, weighs only $500
pounds.

LUXURIOUS MOTOR CARS
WONDER OF PRESENT AGE
miracle Industry" Is the Way They
are Described By The
Oklahoman.

To speak of the automobile business
as a miracle industry" has long been
bromidic but every n~v and then the
genius Of motordom expresses Itself so
omphatically that no word short Of
miracle seems adequate. The "Closed
Car" as we now see II, seems to be
the luxurious zenith Of locomotion. the
opithalium of elegance and utility,
says the Oklahoman. But when we
look back on the fretting. stertoreous
refractory machine Of n few Yeas ago
ard behold the reliability, capacity
and beauty into which 1t has evolved
we are admonished against accepting
the triumph OF today as the acme OF
motoring possibility. In 1927 the glo-
Iious equipage of now Is likely to
seem the awkward auto age.
In any event, the automobiles field
of usefulness, great as II is today, Is
bound to expand tremendously The
name OF the man with a car is already
legion, but the gasoline engine will
never come fully into its own until the
man without n car disappears from
the map. From the crowded, hand
to-mouth poverty OF the big cities to
universal automobile ownership may
seem a Utopian dream, hut who shall
say that the automobile is nor the ad-
vance courier of Utopia?
The back -to-the- land movement, "A
pleasing fancy OF doctrinaires, has
been made n virile policy by the auto
mobile More than that, II has been
made an accomplished fact.
The auto has revolutionized the
physical organization OF cities and has
given its death blow TO the isolation
OF the farm. II is stitching the earth
with veritgble threads of gold, name
ly good roads, which, IN their ap-
pointed time shall be acclaimed as the
emancipation of mankind. And IT, Is
still in the pink dawn OF its career.
Making the world safe for democ-
iacy is now the supreme task of civil
lizatlon. Civilization will prove equal
to that task. The stars in their
courses so ordain II. To the problem
of making the world lovely for democ-
racy, OF apportioning the worlds glory

tolce and be exceeding glad for the
privilege of living. the genus OF
statesmanship must needs address it.
self when this last pretension of the
divine right OF kings has been shat
tered. And one OF the most potent
agencies In the achievement OF univer-
sal happiness will be the automobile.
Its destiny is to be the messenger OF
the millennium.

ANTICIPATED SHORTAGE
OF MOTORS IS PREDICTED
Conscription of Auto Manufacturing
Plants May Re Near Future
Policy

with announcement that the pol
icy OF virtual conscription Of the ma
tons manufacturing facilities for war
purposes first will be applied TO motor
plants, the anticipated shortage or
automobiles becames a reality near
at hand" says S. NJ. How, general
sales manager of the Haynes Auto
mobile company.
The war Industries boari desires
motor carmakers to produce war mu-
l,itions, and the makers have assured
the board OF their readiness 10 di-
vert a part of their plants 10 meet
these desires
I'VE have reason TO believe that the
government will begin to appHrtion
war contracts among many plants just
as soon as details for distributor can
be worked out. The result is very evil
dent. Serious curtailment of the pro-
duction of automobiles is inevitable
once the manufacturers get into the
swing of war work.
Heretofore. during the war. auto
mobile production has been prob
lem chiefly of materials; II is still that,
but in addition will be the problem Of
available manufacturing facilities.
THE automobile industry Is still
threatened with priority shipment
order, which would cut off all ship
ments OF alloy steel. The order actu-
ally was passed and tho revoked after
conferences between the war indus
tries board and representatives Of the
motor car industry. II may DO reim-
posed IL conditions demand.
I'VE have laid the seriousness OF the
situation before Haynes dealers. They
In turn will put the proposition up to
the man who expects to buy car. We
have made II plain that undess the
prospective buyer acts reasonably soon
he may find II a difficult matter 20
obtain tho car he wants at any price.
"1t seems practically certain now
that the demand for motor cars soon
will far exceed the output. due TO the
governments requirements"
