DISPATCH RIDERS OF TODAY
Successful Use Of Airpianes In War
Of Movement Was Striklngly
pemonstrated.

AS we drove up the hill near
Nancy on September II to the near
est corps headquarters q two-seater
airplane coming from the St. Mihiel
front yolplaned down toward US,
William Slayens McNutt writes IN
Golfers. We could see the observer
in the rear seat standing up and
looking down over the fuselage. AS
the plane buzzed over US not more
than 200 feet above, the observer
swung his arm and a small white OBJ
iect with two-foot linen tail spread
out behind the speeding plane and
came to earth like an arrow. An
orderly picked it up and sprinted
with it to headquarters.
It was report from the front not
ten minutes old. It would have
taken a foot runner the entire day
to collect the material in that re-
port and return with it; it would
have taken dispatch rider on 9 mo-
torcycle hours; it took the airman
minutes, and as the orderly picked
up the message the. plane above was
banking around and heading again
for the battle line,
Planes are more than the eyes OF
the army in q war Of movement.
They are the means Of communities
ton as well. The army that OWLS
the sky holds a short and certain
mortgage on the earth below.

A statement Of Dodge Brothers
war activities is due the owners
Of their cars.
Dodge Brothers refrained, dur
ing the progress of the war,
from any reference to the per-
Torrance of the car in Govern
ment service.
It seems proper now, however,
to disclose the facts, because
they are creditable factsin-
tensifying that good will which
owners of Dodge Brothers cars
have always manifested.
Dodge Brothers car was the
only one Of it's class approved
and adopted by the War De
part1nent.
IN a separate Ordance Works,
built especially for the purpose,
costing millions Of dollars and
employing thousands of their
skilled motor Workmen, Dodge
Brothers undertook an impor-
tant duty designated by the
War Department.
Without the aid of their great
motor organization, Dodge
Brothers could not have full
filled the heavy obligation
which they were asked to as
sumo by the Ordnance Depart
ment.
The other service required of
Dodge Brothers motor works,
by the Government, was to con-

tinue to furnish their cars as
they were needed.
They were furnished, not in
hundreds, but in thousands
both for the training camps
here and for service in Belgium,
France and Italy.
The record Of those thousands
Of camp and army cars is one
in which any owner may feel
the utmost pride and satisfac-
ton.
Their performance justified the
compliment implied in their
selection by the Government.
The great work in which near
" three hundred thousand OF
their cars have been produced
in the past four years furnished
a vast store-house Of human en-
ergy and equipment for the ord
nance work.
Naturally, it will take time to
adjust the motor works to it's
full accustomed activity.
Gradually Dodge Brothers will
resume the grateful task OF con-
tinuing to deserve inc good will
Of America and indeed OF
the whole world.
Dodge Brothers consider good
will their most valuable posses
sion.
They will never knowingly do
anything to lessen it.

1t is such a big undertaking and
it has been carried out upon such q

of it could be grasped until it has

in art history by daring achieve

outstripped himself. He has built
towering walls just as they stood in
ancient Babylon when Cyrus and his
army took possession of that siren
city of the ancient east. He has
reared again the roadways, the
streets and the houses in and about
Jerusalem that figure in the great
est story that has ever been record
ed in the upbuilding of man. He has
made Paris of the 10th Century and
the Court of Charles TX and his
scheming mother bloom again like a
symbolical greenbay tree of dramatic
art. And he has linked all this with
scenes of current life that go deeper
than mere outline of the age we are
living in-they depict the hearts and
the souls of the hour and show you
life in the rough state Of its con-
temporary evolution. And in these
