MOTOR CAR COMFORT
DEPENDS ON DESIGN
AND CONSTRUCTION

Comfort in the motor car has been
a thing of slow growth, says L. J.
Ollier, vice president ana director OF
sales Of the Studebaker corporation
In the DAYS when cars were ma
chimes instead Of vehicles. bodily
comfort was. less than a secondary
conSideratiOn-the mechanics OF the
congiomeraticn OF steel and glass and
wire were the first thought. Nova
days. with the motive units and run
ming gear developed to a point where
they no longer are source of worry,
car owners have become more ap-
preciative Of what car designers nave
tried to do for their bodily comfort
and have demanded more along that
line
But just what is meant by com
fort2 ! am afraid that the average
motO- car DuveI looks upon comfort
as being associated with. the depth
and llXuriousness of the cushions and
upholstery ONLY Surely it is more
than that. In designing the new
Series / StudebaEer cars we consid-
cred both driver ard passengers. Our
efforts haA been directed along 4
number Of different lines. but to the
ore cnG-ccmfort.
rPcwel, first of ELL, heads the list
rar essentials that make for comfort.
Power TO take you there and back
without continual shifting of gears
ard mechanical difficulties. Most any
car will run vel. on good roads-but
for complete relaxation the motorist
wants an automobile with plenty OF
reserve power TO meet all of the
emergencies If toUrirs. The driver
WHO shifts from high 10 low or
intermediate for every little grade or
stretch of rough going certainly can
not be very comfortable. What you
want is road car, one you can sit
in. keep two fingers on the wheel
and bowl along at 25 or 80 miles an
/ with pedals and levers. That's why
We talk SO much about Studebaker
roGd ability-you don't have to drive

Leg room is another mighty i'm
portant feature of the comfortab Bile
car: room for persons OF any size or
height to stretch out in and feel as
free and easy as if in their favorite
chair at home. The front seats OF
StudeDaker cars are individual and
made to conform perfectly to the con-
tour Of the passengers back. They
are really torm-fitting. Both of these
seats are adjustable, fore and aft,
and the seat next to teh drivers is
reversible. Occupants may ride fac
ing either forward or the tonneau-

fort idea.

Ion. Kansas City is a very hiily city,
and we find the three shift gear a
great saver of gasoline. We also
find that the starter on the car is a
gasoline saver, because the men will
not let the car run like they would
if they had TO crank X. The Max
well company has co-operated in
every way possible TO keep the cost
of operation at a minimum. and in
the matter of adjustment of any
claim for defective parts. have been
very liberal. TIE cars have aver
aged about 10000 miles per car since
we have hac them, and there has
been no necessity for any major re-
pairs except in the case Of wrecks
and, by the way, the cost of all
wrecks is included in the average
cost we have above outlined
The policy of the present admin
istration is 10 standardiZe wherever
possible, and as the larger trucks in
the service OF the city are replaced,
the probabilities are that they will
be replaced so as 70 standardize the
equipment. We find ohat all me
chanics become so familiar with the
mechanism of standardized car
that repairs are a very simple and
inexpensive matter
The city al present has Sc motor
cars, ana We use four mechanics and
two mechanics helpers in cur repair
shop. This, coupled with the fact
that we have but two reserve ears,
/ and these in two different depart
ments, IS sufficient evidence of the
Worthiness and economical operation
of the Maxwell car.

New York, April 20.--As the sum

against child mortality are being made
in this city. The dread of recnr'

New York has reason TO be proud of
its record for baby-saving. Last year,
despite the epidemic, the death-rate
for infants under one year of age was
reduced TO 80 per 1000 births, the
lowest rate in the history of the city.

enormous, In 1906, out of every 1000

These results are largely due to

have rendered excellent services by

National Organization for Public
Health Nursing is starting campaign
TO give new impetus 10 child welfare
work. In a leaflet for general distri-
button throughout the country,
strong appeal is made to taxpayers
and parents for the support OF the
baby-welfare nurse. There is a popu-
lar notion that such services are need
ed only in large cities. The associa-
ton teaches. however that they are
needed in the rural districts as we'll
