grade and then note how it gets unde:'
way again. There will be times when
you will be required to stop on hills,
and you should know what to expe It.
A car that picks up well in test of
this kind shows merit.
Accessible Parts
Accessibility is another important
factor to claim your attention. If you
are going to have your minor repairs
done at home, the principal working
parts should be easily accessible. It
would certainly seem foolish to spend
an hour or two getting at some work
ing part that might be adjusted in
five minutes. Even though you do
not have your repairs done at home,
accessibility is still most important,
for the largest item in repair bill is
for labor. You will have to pay for
the labor of getting at the parts at
the same rate that you pay for making
the actual repairs.
Brakes!
Brakes are, in my opinion, the most
important feature of any car, because
at certain times it is absolutely neces.
sary to stop quickly to avert serious
accident. Your own life, and that of
your friends, may depend very largely
upon the reliability of your brakes. It
is impossible to over-estimate the
great Importance Of well.constructed
and strongly built brakes They should
be so constructed that they will hold
the car equally we'll in both directions,
Insist upon knowing just how depend
able the brakes are on the particular
car you are considering. Get ample
proof regarding them and be entirely
satisfied that you are getting the
right kind. n
Now, About Style
OF course, We all know that the
lines of car, its finish, color and en-
tire exterior appearance does much to
influence sales where the fair sex are
concerned, but don't be misled by q
coat of paint, shiny leather and glist-
ening metal. Look farther and be
sure both interior and exterior are dur
able, ,serviceable and practical, and,
above all, suited to your particular re.
quirements. Advice regarding the
outward appearance of a car is rather
superhuous. 1t would, indeed, be a
very discriminating woman who
could not select a handsome exterior,
and the personal equation must enter
largely into this part of, the purchase.
There are so many handsome cars, of
graceful and well-proportioned lines,
attractive color and splendidly equip
ped as to accessories, etc., that it
would be very unfair to discriminate.
1t all depends upon Milady's own taste
anyway, and why try to influence that
for we all know that "A woman con-
WINGED against her will, is of the same
opinion STILL"

Chinese Built First Auto;
Wind Was the Motive Power

Although the first gasoline automo.
bile was invented in 1892 in America,
horseless vehicles of various types had
been produced centuries earlier, &C.
cording to a history of the automobile
recently compiled by G.. S. Rieman,
vice president of the Elgin Motor Car
company.
The first vehicle without animal
power is found in ancient Chinese rec.
ords which describe kite carriages
which were driven by wind blowing
against sails attached to the body,
says the history.
This idea was later transferred to
England and in the reign of King
James l, a patent was granted to HUI.
60 Upton for wind-driven carriage.
The next effort to perfect self.
propelled machine came in the eigh.
teenth century when man named
Pinchbeck built a steam.propelled car
which ran 40 minutes without stopping
In 1859 the English inventor Ladd
further perfected the steam machine
and carried five passengers at rate
of six miles an hour. This was long
OSAoA . CAO AASOAIAOu VI IuC
In 1902 Richard Trevithick built q
steam carriage which ran more than
80 miles and was later exhibited in
London.
The first practical steam carriage
however, was built by Walter Hand
cock a few years later. This machine
ran 4,200 miles and carried a total OF
12,761 passengers.
The first internal combustion engine
was invented by Able D'Hautefeuille
in 1878. The explosive power of gun
powder was used to drive a piston in
a cylinder. This principle was later
adopted in the gasoline engine.
The first gas engine was invented in
1884 by Gottlieb Daimler, who applied
It to bicycle a year later.
1t was after experimenting with this
engine that C. E. Duryea built the first
automobile in 1892. This machine was
not successful, as there was not
enough power to drive it except under
ideal conditions, and two years later
Duryea built four-cylinder car which
was quite successful.
Since then the development of the
automobile has been rapid.

Automobiles Developed
Wonderfully Last Year
VISITORS TO VALLEY CITY AUTO
MOBILE SHOW WILL FIND MUCH
TO ADMIRE IN NEW TYPES AND
IMPROVEMENTS DISPLAYED.

Taking the 1917 cars as class, they
are not only better than their pre-
decessors, but they are more Ameri-
can. They are the evolution of the
1916 cars with a new refinement in
detail.
Every part of the American auto
mobile has been improved but the
great aim of the designer has been to
produce something which would
achieve the greatest amount of salts
faction in the hands of the private
owner. Engines that are less apt to
give bother, greater comfort in body
design, cushioning and springs, new
conveniences for operation-all OF
these are accentuated features in the
1917 line.
What will strike the eye first is the
improvement in body design. The
finish. They have a trimmer, more
thoroughbred look and this is enhanc.
ed by the option of colors which has
superseded the old penchant for paint
ing every car black and letting the
owner repaint it if he wished to spend
the money to get something original
or different.
While the streamline effect has be.
come universal in design, it has many
notifications which are more grace.
full than the first streamline shapes.
From radiator to tire-carrier, the 1917
car is harmonious whole and it's lines
blend together as such. BY compari.
son even the most expensive automo-
biles of few years ago appear as
shapeless and ugly as farm wagons.
The slanting windshield and the
double cowl are standard features of
a year ago are commonplace now.
Likewise there has been an added
attention given to radiator and hood
design which makes the front end of
the car as attractive as the tonneau
itself. Tenders are designed now not
merely to act as mud-guards but to
carry out the harmony of line of the
whole vehicle.
More attention has been given to
closed and convertible bodies this
year than ever before. Winter driv-
ing has created an unlocked for de-
mand for all three types of all-year
cars-the permanent closed body, the
convertible, permanent-top body and
the detachable top-and it is a safe
prediction that the coming year will
see a proportionate increase in cars
suitable for driving at all seasons. OF
the three, the convertible type, in
which sides and windows may be
dropped down during warm weather,
is gaining most rapidly in popular
favor.
Bodies Roomier
Bodies are roomier and extra care
The weekly times-record. (Valley City, N.D.) 1912-1922, 1917-03-22

has been given to the upholstering.
More leg-room for passengers has
been sought, greater attention giv;n
to slope of seat-backs for ease in rid
ing and springs have been brought to
the acme of efficiency.
In rOadsters there is greater vari-
alton of design than in any other body
type. The four-passenger roadster has
proved to be more than a passing
fancy and it is now to be found in
many lines and in the greatest variety
of designs. The two passenger road
ster and three-passenger roadster are
still standard but do not attract the
attention formerly given them.
In motors, one finds fours, skies,
Fights and twelves, with many new
makes of the latter two kinds. The
four is still the car which sells in the
greatest quantity and a greater mum.
Der of these will be produced this
year than ever before, both among the
very cheapest makes and in very ex-
pensive lines. A notable thing, how
ever, is the remarkab bic number of new
SKIES which have come upon the mar.
ket-almost all of them in the moder-
ate price class.
Build for Economy
Carburetion has been the great prob
lem for the motor engineer. This has
been due to the decreasing quality of
motor fuel. 1t has been necessary to
devise carburetors and motors which
would use the lower grade fuel and
bring the same satisfaction as in for.
mer years when high-grade gasoline
was to be had. This has been achiev.
ed by shortening intake manifolds or
having the intake integral with the
cylinder block. Ignition has been i'm.
proved also.
Valve-in-head motors are used by
more makers than was the case a year
ago. The Lrhead motor holds its own
in popularity, however, and knight
and T-head motors will also be shown.
Aluminium is being used more in mo.
tors and the trend toward aluminium
pistOns is likely to be accelerated
whenever the price of the metal goes
down toward normal.
Small Refinements
Besides the big essentials of the
motor car, there are many refinements
AA SAO 4V4S AAOuOAS al Il1O COul-
forts and conveniences which have
been provided. 1t is not an exagger-
alton to say that there has been i'm
provement throughout the whole line
of accessories and equipment. While
these are refinements in detail, they
will mean much in the addition to own
er comfort and owner satisfaction.
The 1917 American motor car is not
only handsomer creation-it is also
a better one in construction and in
comfort.
Price changes have been noted by
the press from time to time as one
company after another has been fore
ed to make its price announcement.
That these ncreases-amounting to
less than 10 per cent on the average
have not been more is the greatest
of compliments to the genius of the
production engineers.

THE HUMAN DRIVE

Give me the same strons steadfast
will
AS the trim, feet car l drive.
That may start with a singing heart
On the sweep of years and the toll
and tears
That only the fit survive.
For l will want on the long, long
stretch
The strength and the will to stay,
The strength of steel, and the will to
feel
That it's great to live, that it's great
to give
My best each lap of the way.
Give me the same stout, well-knit
frame
To parry the highways grip.
For as drive, as l strain and strive
l must toss laugh at the toughest
gaff
/ meet on the trying trip.
Give me the same big, beating heart
As the heart beneath the hood,
That's pumping zest till the wheels
can't rest,
Till the goal is won and the work is
done,
And dread of the work withstood.
Wish me no rose-lain, level course
That makes of the goal Jest:
But just enough of the sterner stuff
OF the rugged roads and the heavy
loads
TO offer worthy test.
Wish me this on the far-fung way:
A powerful will to do,
That If I'm stalled and the way seems
walled,
I may still have heart for another
start
The courage to carry me through.

MOTOR FACTS FOR WOMEN
(Bv Mrs. A, Sherman Hitchcock i

Northwest Motorist)
You are planning now to attend the
motor shows, or, if you are not so for.
tunately situated as to take advan-
tage of what might be termed a short
and liberal route to motor car edu-
cation, you will take advice, wise and
otherwise, about the car you should
buy, but you should remember there
are some important essentials which
every intending purchaser should be-
come familiar with before parting
with her money. Choosing a car Is
really a very simple thing, provided
you keep a few elementary facts in
mind, and no woman need hesitate in
deciding what lis the best car for her
personal use if she will proceed in Sc
lecting it along these lines.
First Consideration
Your first consideration in choosing
motor car should be expense. Now,
the price limit should mean not only
the original cost, but to great extent
its upkeep. If your car costs you
more than you can really afford to
spend, the pleasure you will derive
from its use will be greatly lessened
by your anxiety over the expense of
upkeep and repairs. So. be sure to
buy the car that is best for the price
you can pay.
Your chances of buying a poorly
made car are not so great as they
were few years ago, but the method
of manufacture is one of the important
points which require your attention.
Assure yourself that the manufacture
ers of the car you purchase are thor.
oughly reliable and that their product
Is In no sense experimental. Buy a
car that is made in an efficient shop
and made from the right design and
the best materials. II an adverse wind
should blow the makers of your car
away and you have to renew some OF
the parts of your cars and cannot OBJ
tain them easily, or if they are expen.
sive, then your investment has been
a most unfortunate one.
Mechanical Excellence
Mechanical excellence is one of the
important points in buying. The mo-
tor should be quiet, we'll made and
we'll designed. The horsepower should
be as great as the best engineers rec.
ommend for car of that particular
weight. The car should be furnished
with tires large enought to bear its
weight. A noisy motor should be
avoided because it is an imperfect one.
Ask that the motor be run at differ.
ent speeds, while the car stands. If
the car vibrates materially, the motor
is imperfect. The greater the vibra.
ton the sooner will the motor wear it.
self and the car out.
There are number of things you
must test yourself. Get into the driv-
er's seat and see if you can reach all
the levers with ease and comfort. Try
the brakes and clutch and see wheth-
er they are beyond your strength or
not. See if it is comparatively easy
for you to take off tire and put it
on again. You may never have to do
this, and then again sooner or later
you may find It quite necessary, and
so it is we'll to know about it.
Do not be satisfied with mere speed
or high gear success in hill-climbing.
Ask that the car be stopped on tae
