MARMON MAKES
GREAT RECORD
IN LONG TRIP

From Baltimore to Pittsburg in
high gear in seven hours and fifteen
minutes actual running time is the rec
ord of a Marmon a." declared Walter
Scott, Marmon dealer in Baltimore,
according to a story for automobiles
printed recently in the Baltimore
American.
Jacob r. Pfeiffer of Baltimore, a
Marmon owner, and Mr.. Scott started
to Pittsburg together for a business
trip and without any intention of
breaking a record. Mr.. Scott said, but
he made a record for the 240 miles, and
proved that he got better than IS miles
for every gallon of gasoline. Mr.. Scott
and Mr.. Pfeiffer drove by way of
Hagerstown, through Mercersburg and
Accommodating, where the roads are
by no means so good as they might be,
and where there are some pretty steep
hills.
1--WE went into high gear at the start,
and never changed gears over the en-
tire route" Mr.. Scott said. THE
scenery is beautiful, and we often
lowed down to admire fine views. 1
could have pushed the car through in
even better time than we made, espe-
cially since our time included travelling
traffic in two cities"

AMERICAN
AUTO CONTEST
IS SUGGESTION

Taking the idea from the sporting
world, in which it has long been the
practice to annually select an ALL
American team made up of the most
proficient athletes in each field of
sporting endeavor, prominent motor
car enthusiast recently suggested the
naming of an All-Amercan automo-
bile. The car achieving the distinction
must represent the highest tye of mo-
tor car development up to the present
time.
Among the first to take advantage
of the suggestion is Edward S. Jordan
head of the Jordan Motor Car company
of Cleveland, and he offers his own
product as a candidate for All-Ameri-
| can honors at a price under $4,000. His
argument in behalf of his selection
follows in part:
| The Jordan car is entitled to the
| All American position principally be-
cause it embodies more of the COM
plete standard specifications of the
Society of Automobile Engineers than
any other car on the market today. A
glance at its important parts bears out
| the significance of the statement that
| every unit in the Jordan is leader
in it's line
Its Continental six-cylinder motor
needs no Introduction. It's supremacy
in the motor world is established.
Its Bosch ignition system is ex-
ceedingly popular with cars selling at
more than $4,000 For example, it is
used on the Brewster, Marmon, Nc
F'arlan, Mercer, Owen Magnetic
Pierce Arrow and several other costly
cars
Its starting and lighting system,
| the Blur, has been selected by such
expensive makes of cars as the Pack
ard and the Winton. Their selection
speaks for itself
THE Stromberg carburetor, used on
the Jordan, is the favorite of such high
priced cars as the Austin, Cunning
ham, Marmon, McFarlan and others.
'The Jordan's Thinker axles are
known the world over The Owen
/ Magnetic, Singer, McFarlan, Cunning
ham and other expensive cars are
| equipped with them.
| Its SeWart- Warner vacuum system
is used by more than 20 per cent of all
the manufacturers of automobiles. For
/ that reason it is conservative to say
that it is the most efficient feed sys-
tenn.
Practically ALI other units Of the
Jordan are equally prominent among
the expensive motor. cars. Among
them we find the famous Feeders radi
ator, the unsurpassed Boyce Moto-
meter, the widely known Willard bat
teries, the Marshal cushion seat springs
and A c. spark plugs.

WEST IS RICH
MOTOR FIELD
SAYS MANAGER

c. P. Henderson, sales manager of
the Cole Motor company, who was
recent visitor on the Pacific coast
brought a message of optimism to the
dealers in the southwest. It was the
first visit Of Mr.. Henderson TO the
southwestern territory in two years
This side of the continent is wide
awake in a business sense" he said.
There is a surprising amount of pep
and energy displayed by the business
men and the general public is decidedly
prosperous. OF course, lacking the
manufacturing interests common to the
east and middle west, you dc not see
so much of the-rush and hustle out here
as there is in those parts of the coun-
try. but ! believe the effect is being
felt the same way and probably will
be more stable
Mr. Henderson discussed the sub
ject of possible effects of war on the
motor car trade reluctantly, explaining
that he did not believe it good judg-
ment to grasp the opportunity to make
fervid displays of patriotism as
means of securing publicity.
He expressed the opinion that if
called upon every prominent automO-
bile manufacturing concern in the
country, without exception. viii be
found willing to place its plant at the
disposal of the government The mo-
tor car makers machinery and other
equipment are especially we'll adapted
for munition making purposes as well
as building automobiles, which would
become valuable asset if needed, he
declared.
1t was stated by Mr.. Henderson that
automobile manufacturers now require
more careful scrutiny into parts and
supplies that enter into the car than
ever before because of the vast guam
THY being produced. The Cole Motor
Car company has doubled the number
uf its men engaged in the work of in
spection and now keeps resident repre-
sentatives at the engine, body and
axle plants, where these parts are made
Tor Cole cars. These men test and
check every item and there are other
checkers on their work to guard
against possibility of error as near as
possible.

design cars that will roll along on good
roads at 25 to 80 miles an hour for
few miles at q time and at the average
seasons requirement of 10000 miles.
The object of the Hudson engineers
was to construct machines that would
endure. The aim was car that would
successfully meet every burden of use.
They arrived at a car that would an
swer every requirement. The car that
will go at any speed that the road
makes possible and will maintain that
speed, not for mile or two, but for
thousands of miles and require no adj
justments-no repair-is the ideal for
which all makers should aim. In win
ming all worth while records for stock
cars last year, the Hudson officials
We're unable to determine the endur
ance limits of a Hudson Super Six.
Speed is not essential to the average
driver. But speed is necessary if auto
lists are to determine just how much
wear and abuse a car will bear before

HIGH FOOD PRICES
ARE GREAT HELP IN
SELLING MACHINES

1.-TWO dollar wheat and two fifty po
tatoes are creating an entirely new
class of high grade automobile pros
poets this spring." according to Frank
B Willis, vice president of the Hal
Motor Car company of Cleveland, who
goes on to give a few illustrations that
have come to the notice of the Hal
twelve sales organization.
Never before in my sixteen years
experience in the sales end of the mo-
tor car business, have l heard the deal
ers throughout the country report such
glowing prospects for the automobile
business so early in the spring, as they
do this year. One hears these wonder
full tales of prosperity from coast to
coast. Every dealer with whom l have
talked or corresponded this spring. has
increased his allotment of cars for the
coming season, from fifty to one hun
bred per cent over what he sold in
1916.
This is very unusual, especially
among the dealers who handle the bet
ter grade of cars in the smaller cities.
While these dealers have had a steadi-
ly increasing business for the last two
or three years, they never before, to
my knowledge, have experienced such
a great demand for high grade cars as
they are experiencing right now.
In the west the high price of wheat
seems to have brought to the front an
entirely new type of high grade car
buyer. He is the farmer who works his
own land and does not necessarily rent
or lease his acreage to tenant farmers.
A good Illustration of this type of man
buying high priced cars this year is
evidenced in report from our Kansas
City dealer who sold a car during the
auto show in that city, to a Cherokee
Indian farmer The car, a Hal twelve,
was finished in thistle green"
Arizona republican., 1917-04-22

Some ofthe records established by
the Super-Six last year are too well
known to again be repeated Suffice it
to say that any machine that can travel
"a hours at an average speed of 1873
miles per hour is of dependable mate
rails.
Now the Hudson officials plan to. pit
the Super-SiX motor against the fastest
non-stock and especially built racing.
cars of the world. Most of the racing
cars against which Hudsons will race
are specially built for racing. Few of
them are even remotely similar to those
used for ordinary purposes. Some of
the cars cost as much as $4,000 each
Changes in some details will be made
to make the Hudson Super-SiX cars
suitable for racing. "A shorter wheel
base for one thing vii be necessary. All
that will be done to the regular stock
cars to fit them for the speedways can
be done with practically stock parts

Fashion Hints
For Summer.

Very smart hats sometimes prove
very disappointing when tried on at
home for the first time. This is be-
cause the wearer neglects to notice
the angle at which the milliner places
a hat when fitting it.
Hats are becoming to face or not
according to their tilt. Jusl now both
big and little hats are shaped to pull
well down over the right eye brow
while disclosing the left.
Designers are doing what they can
for the heavy woman by a process
called scientific svelting." Ample
figures attired in one-piece gowns of
this type are supposed to rival the
slender lines.
The range of new collar shapes is
exceptionally wide. There is ten
dency toward preference for shapes
which spread out on the shoulder, sug-
gesting the epaulet or military form.
Blue serge dresses, in tailored finish
or ncoat dress style, are very popu-
lar at present.
Batiste, printed chiffons, voiles
Georgettes and nets are used in fash.
ioning charming blouses for hot
weather wear, but charming as they
are, there is no material that quite
equals the organdie.

TO PRESERVE A HUSBAND

Choose carefully, and not too
young, from such varieties as a
good moral or, better, Christian
atmosphere produces. When once
you have chosen, let that part re-
main forever settled, and give
plenty Of time TO thought of pre-
pairing your choice for domestic use.
Do not insist in keeping him in
a pickle, neither constantly in hot
water. Even poor varieties are
sometimes made sweet and tender
by garnishing with patience, sweet
ened with smiles and favored with
kisses.
Wrap well ina mantle of char
ity. Keep warm with a constant
flow of domestic devotion and serve
with toothsome edibles
When thus prepared they are
warranted to keep for years.
