HOLMES CAR WILL
BE SOLD HERE
New Air-Cooled Motor Car
to Be With Hupmobile
Agency

Arthur Holmes, designer OF the
Holmes car and president of the au-
tomobile company by that name, Is
proud of this new creation in the
motor world. He drove his car re-
Gently from the factory at Canton,
Ohio, to the New York show in a
test trip of 5s4 miles.
This trip set the final seal of
work liability" on the carefully per-
fected air-cooling system of the car.
Although the engine had never been
run, even on a block, before Holmes
had it cranked up for his start from
Canton, there was absolutely no en-
gine trouble during the entire trip,
and no sign of overheating. The
car climbed long, slippery hills in
first and second gear, and the en-
gine frequently ran idle when
Holmes stopped to inquire the way
or dig out a road through drifted
snow. Yet the engine would not
kick over, even when the switch was
thrown at the top OF long, steep
grades.
The extraordinary rough roads al
so served as an acid test for the
riding comfort of the car. Holmes
says that it is entirely flee from
vibration, owing to the length of the
wheel base, 126 inches. YETI. be-
cause of its balance and fieXibility,
the car negotiated with perfect safe
ty the hairpin curves of Allegheny
Mountain trails.
Fourteen thousand miles Of life
for each tire on this car is conf
IDENTIFY prophesied, and an indication
of this tire economy is to be found
in the fact that the tire chains put
on in Canton and not removed for
594 miles showed practically no
signs of wear when New York was
reached. The test trip also fixes be-
yond doubt the average mileage of
the car at 16 miles per gallon OF
gasolene. The car did 13 miles to
the gallon when it was bucking
snow, ice, high winds, high grades,
and frequent stops with the engine
running.
This new air-cooled motor car is
represented by r. J. Church, of the
Holmes Philadelphia Company, and
will be sold from the local Hupmo-
bile branch.

COMMERCIALIZING
ON PATRIOTISM
REQ Head Deplores Tendency
of Some to Cash In On
A National Duty.

"If you have noticed pleasing
absence of appeals to patriotism in
REQ automobile advertising. it is in
tentional," says General Manager
Scott of the REQ Motor Car Com
pany.
Il sometimes wonder at the af-
frontery of businessmen who use so
sacred thing as our national pa
triotism to push the sale of their
wares.
Seems to me it is prostituting
mans finest emotion to very ordi-
nary, If not base, purpose.
I'VE are just as alert to further
the reputation of the REQ product as
any other manufacturer can be, but
we do not believe in STOPPING to such
methods by telling the buyer that it
IS your patriotic duty to buy, ETC.,
etc.
Nor do we believe that as a firm
1t is right for us to fiaunt before
the eyes of everybody the little part
we are so fortunate to play in help
ing Uncle Sam along with his war

our privilege-it is as unseemly to
advertise the fact as it would be to

Andrew Redmond
Will Move to
New Quarters

Since the fire which completely
destroyed the garage and warerooms
of Andrew Redmond at Third and
Boyd streets, Mr.. Redmond has been
occupying temporary offices at 1907

been endeavoring to keep in touch
with the public and the users of Vim

Mr.. Redmond announces that he
has secured the beautiful showrooms,
now in the course of construction,

Company's Building at Third and

into them as soon as they are COM
pleted. He will then have on dis

agent ones activities in the interest
of public welfare.
II have been astounded to note
that some concerns that are manned
by individuals who, in private life,
would seem to be above such meth
ods, have made the most fragrant
abuses of the word patriotism in
this form.
I'VE REQ folk hope to do our part
if it were not for violation of what
have just said above, might spe-
city how and in what directions we
are and have been doing our part
but we do not feel that we are any
more entitled to public patronage on
that account.
IN fact, if somebody else makes
n better automobile, we would feel
that we were less entitled to his pat
ronage or his confidence.
IF the quality of the product 1t
self is sufficient grounds for exploit,
tation in peace times, surely we can
adhere to those same qualities in
war times and without appropriat-
ing to our own little personal ad-
vantage the quality of patriotism
that all Americans feel and which,
like religion, can be played upon by

MOTOR CAR SHOW
Is INSTRUCTIVE
Sales Manager Sills, of Chew
rolet Company, Tells of
Increasing Popularity
BY w. @. SILLS
General Sales Manager Chevrolet
Motor Co


Motor Co.
Automobile Show time is here
again-show time with all its sur
prises. Show time with all the new
models, improvements. innovations,
in cars and accessories.
You are going to attend. of course.
You will want to see the latest Of
ferings.
A day spent at an automobile
show is an education. And it is we'll
worth any ones time TO visit an ex-
hibition, and gain first-hand knowl-
edge pertaining to motor cars.
You see before your eyes the pro-
gress and advancement made during
the previous twelve months. You
appreciate, as you could in no other
way, the work accomplished by the
various departments of n factory
You see before you the ideals of the
men responsible for the product OF
each company.
Each car you see represents an
ideal.
There is as much individuality to
an automobile as to a person. Each
person has some sort of a charac-
ter, so have automobiles, for they
reflect the character, the business
standards of the men responsive fol
building them. They mirror the as
pirations of the executive and manu-
featuring departments, of the de-
signers, engineers, sales managers
and others who do the actual work
who decide on the type of cars to
be built.
This is one of the reasons why an
exhibit is of such deep interest
Every time you look at a 1918 model
you see the efforts of those who In
their mind sought to create mo-
dels that would interest present. day
purchasers. At the show you see
each make on dress parade"
1t is interesting, then, to go from
one exhibit to another and see the
individual results, to see for your
self each company's contribution to
the total sum of mechanical and
artistic knowledge.
The interest is genuine, too, for
the very good reason that the au-
tomobile means transportation, and
transportation is important to peo-
pie everywhere. 1t isn't too much to
say that it is one of the next import
ant items in life, so every man, wo-
man and child in this country is in
terested in mechanical transporta-
tion.
This general interest will be even
greater in the future than it has
been in the past-it will be univers-
al. This is because the growing gen.
Grafton of the day is interested in
motor cars. They worship the auto
mobile, appreciating, as they do, its
many uses and it is safe to say that
this genuine interest will grow with
theiI years.
1t is not question of the country
being automobile mad, it is rather
that the country, as a whole, has
come to a realization of the import
ance of the motor vehicle.

Hofman's Garage
Is Well Heated

This winter has been exception
ally severe, as far as the heat ques-
tion is concerned, not only for pri-
vate families, but for the business
people as well. The coal question
has been trying one to everybody.
With the scarcity of coal, people
are cutting down as much as possi-
BILE on heat.
Storage for automobiles, taken
from the heat standpoint, is almost
| impossible. There are very few
garages that can keep the heat up
to a certain standard, owing some
times to construction or to lack of
coal. Heat is essential in garages in
order to keep the cars from freezing
and to enable the driver to start out
in the morning with the least posi-
BILE trouble.
Hoffman's garage, at Seventh and
Camp streets, is one of the few that
are able to mtaintain the right
standard of heat. 1t is as comfort
able in this large sunshiny garage as
in good many parlors.
This Garage is of modern fire
proof construction with a capacity
for 175 automobiles without crowd
the convenience of the party who
stores there has been installed.
There are outlets for air with which
to pump up tires so placed that they
are reached without moving your
car out of its stall. The wash stand
is of the latest kind, with hot and
cold running water. Many other
conveniences make this a very at
tractive storage place for your car.
There is space set off for the ex-
elusive use of large trucks.
This garage is easily accessible
from all points, it is only a short
distance below Sixth st. with paved
streets on all sides. The rates are
reasonable and the service is among
the best.

Causes of RIow-Outs

When outside wear or inside break
in the fabric, due to bruises pro-
duces a comparatively weak place in
a casing. the inside pressure causes
a bulge in the location of the weak
spot, and this spot is then exposed
to more wear in travel than the
evened parts of the casing. OF
course the blowout quickly follows.
Strong interliners prevent this bull
ging making a slight depression at
the worn spot in place of a bulge,
and thus preventing excessive wear
on the weak parts of the covering.
