HEALTH SHOULD BE YOUR
FIRST CONSIDERATION

Wisdom dictates that a man shall first take care
of his body and concern himself with externals
afterward.
II il is true that at shall not profit man If he
gain the whole world and lose his SOUL" il is
equally true that ii shall not profit him to strive
after happiness if he negects the very fountain
head of happiness, which is perfect health.
Perfect health is IMPOSSIBLE together with
the presence OF defective or carious teeth or dis
eased gums, for these are a source Of general in
lection which slowly but surely sapS the vitality

SPECIAL MOTOR
CARS FOR BUSY
WAR WORKERS
Army and Navy Men Have Owr
Fleet of Town Cars and
Taxicabs

A taxicab company of Washington,
.. c. has Just put into operation a
deet of special Dodge Brothers town
cars and taxicabs, which are being
used almost exclusively by members
Of the Army and Navy club.
The need for high grade type of
motor car for rental purposes has be-
come Increasingly apparent as the
number of Washington transients
grew with the progress of the national
war work. The cars were designed to
be the equal, in appearance and in
comfort. of those which officials and
others use at their homes.
Both town cars and taxicab bodies
were designed by Dodge Brothers deal
or ut New York, and are mounted on
the standard chassis. A great many such
mars arc in the service of private own
ors and taxi companies in New York.
The Brownell Anto company is the
local distributor of the Dodge cars and
also have many of these cars on the
Birmingham market.

APPERSON GETS
PRAISE OF ENGINEER
FROM '4OVER THERE

The new Apperson eight-cylinder en-
CINE is establishing a reputation for itself
which promises to eclipse that of any
other engine ever built by those two
pioneer motor engineers of Kokomo. Ell
mer and Edgar Apperson. In the Apper-
son Anniversary car, which attracted so
much attention at the winter shows, the
new engine-the eight with eighty less
parts-is used. 1t is handled in this ter
ritory by the Phelps Apperson company.
AS this latest addition to the Apperson
line has been referred to by critics as
"a Little Bit of Europe it seems very
fitting that one of the best compliments
should come to the Apperson brothers
from the chief engineer of one of Eu-
ropes leading motor car institutions.
Speaking to Edwar Apperson through
an interpreter at the New York show
in January, this famous mechanical ex-
pert overseas said
"After a thorough study of American
motors and a careful inspection of the
new ones here exhibited, I want to tell
you that in this new Eight you have, in
my opinion, the best and most practical
motor car engine that has ever been
built in the United States"

kins, southern distributor of the Kis-

ITO determine whether the motor
knight Errants' of 1918 are as
thoughtful as those of 1908, a recent
test conducted by a Kissel Kar dealer
on highway resulted in man stand
Ing by his car on the roadside while
ATS cars passed, without one slowing
down to ask If he could help.
ITO offset this apparent carelessness
or lack of road etiquette, pretty girl
was planted beside Kissel Kar with
a flat tire, along the same highway.
Two cars passed, because the drivers
were looking the other way. but the
third car slowed down and quickly Of
fered to assist. The test was tried

, ness men, has been forced to turn to a
greatly extended use of the high-grade
motor trucks as a relief from the disas-
| ton.
PROVED PRACTICAL
"And that business, first tried as an
| experiment. has now been proved not
only practicable, but profitable. What a
considerable number of progressive firms
discovered sometime ago that high grade
| trucks were an economy inter-city sery-
| ice, and in a materially enlarged service
| within the city itself, business in general
| has learned today.
| Consequently, high grade motor trucks
| are now taking over much of the short
haul work of the railroads and releasing
badly needed freight cars for more i'm
perative duty
For this new truck service Nash trucks
| are unusually suited. Powerful and
stanch in construction built to stay in
service over a period of years, they are
| especially adapted to this new truck
| work because they are equipped with an
automatic locking differential
NEWLY ADDED FEATURES
! Briefly, this good differential is an
equalizer of power If one driving wheel
of Nash truck momentarily loses trac-
ton, it does not spin as is ordinarily the
case, and leave its mate without power.
On the straightaway, one driving wheel
| on the Nash truck can never turn faster
| than the other, consequently when one
driving wheel is without traction, it's
mate always gets adequate power to pull
the truck ahead out of difficulty.
This allows Nash trucks to get

ferred to highly satisfied Veie users
and set forth the yelie agency as a
valuable asset to anyone.
This instance of both sides of a case
agreeing in detail was unique and
speaks Volumes for the worth of tba
Velie six. Of course, the case never
came to trial since the dealer admitted
that he had not taken full advantage
of his sales opportunities
The Birmingham age-herald. [volume] (Birmingham, Ala.) 1902-1950, 1918-03-10

through where other trucks without this
feature cannot go.
In the severest service throughout the
country, hauling loads from cities to
towns. and from farmers to markets
motor trucks like the Nash have estab-
lished themselves as necessities. And It
is certain now motor truck service has
come to stay"

and as a consequences fell short of
