Which Do You Prefer;
A Quick Getaway
Or a Sure Start?
: OF THE TWO, which do you prefer in
motor car?
YOU CAN HAVE ONE-but it is impossible
to have both in the same car.
OF COURSE most makers claim to have both
qualities in their motors---but proof is lacking
EVER NOTICE how, on very cold night
after the theatre concert, every REQ starts
on the touch of the starter-button, while
others start only after long minutes of grind
ing---or exhaust their batteries and have to
be hand-cranked or towed.
JUST WATCH THIS on cold night when
tn starting contest.
REOS ALWAYS WIN in that test--mainly
because of the low compression REQ motors
EXCESSIVE ACCELERATION is achieved
by the adoption of high compression Excess
sive power and speed too--beyond the needs
or the desires of most owners.
BUT LOW UPKEEP---economy in operation
and in maintenance over long period of
years---as found in Reos---is one of the results
of adhearing to the low compression principle.
IS POUNDS per square inch is the REQ rule
some engineers double that.
LONG LIFE of bearings is another REQ quality
-due to the use of cover size' bearings and
the lesser strains to which they are subjected
in the low-compression REQ motor
DOES 1T NATTER whether you reach the
next street corner second or even three
seconds later.
OR DO YOU PREFER car that is certain to
stsrt--and save the time that way.
IT'S FACT that in race from zero motor
to the next street crossing REQ will win
every time.
AND IN THE LONG RUN there's simply no
comparison in the durability, the dependable
ity and the general upkeep of Reos and the
high-compression kind.
IN THAT REGARD--in those most desirable
of all qualities, Reos know no rivals-no peers

YANKEES GIVE HUNS
Christian BURIAL
Mercy Is Shown to Dead and
Wounded Enemy by
Americans.

Paris.-The spirit which prompted
Americas entrance into the world war
perhaps cannot be better ezempliied
than the way in which German
wounded who fall into American
hands are cared for. It is likewise
evidenced in the Christian burial CIV
en- German dead and in the care taken
by the Americans to properly marx
their graves.
For while the creed Of the Ameri-
can soldier is to give no quarter in
battle, those wounded are given every
consideration when they call out that
they have surrendered. Then 1t Is
that mercy Is shown.
In a little cemetery near Meaux
there are now graves Of about thirty
Germans, each Of whom was given a
Christian burial and each grave was
marked with neat black cross, upon
which the name Of the German was
inscribed. A few yards away is an
other cemetery-that Of French and
Americans. The only difference in the
manner Of burial is that the American
and French graves are marked with
white crosses.
Moreover, caretakers of the ceme-
terry, whenever they have placed dow-
ers on the graves Of fallen heroes Of
the allied armies, have also strewn
the ground covering the enemy's sol-
diers with flowers. The cemetery II.
seh Is as neatly looked after as that
of the Americans and French.

ago, almost at the outset of the Of
fensive. The Germans have already
sent to the front the greatest part Of
the 1919 class.
According to the official bulletin Of
the Fourth German army, issued last
May, in order to augment the depleted
divisions it has been found necessary
to employ men of the auxiliary services
in the fighting ranks. It has also been
established that all Germans drafted
out are replaced by men Of the aux
iliary services.
There is still another method which
the Germans finally resorted to. They
have had to break up and dissolve
whole regiments and, being unable to
reorganize the units which had suf-
fered too heavy losses and to re-en-
force those that were still Of some
value, they decided on the fusion Of
numerous regiments.
It has been said that the strongest
walls would crack if in order to fill
up it's holes and crevices other holes
were made and under pressure Of a
violent shock would crumble alto

violent shock when enough Americans
