PRODUCES AMBITION

An automobile is an ambition pro-
 ducer. Ability is measured by what we accomplish, not by what we are going to accomplish. The automobile adds to our ability. It kindles the fires of better efforts, and fans into consuming flames the resolutions that burst into future achievemtns. Ii makes us want to accomplish fresh triumphs. because we enjoy the pro- cess of ng.-Kisselgraphs.

W|LLYS-OVER[AND
 SECOND LARGEST
 PLANT IN AMERICA

From a plant which shipped 465 passenger cars in 1908, the Willys- Overland company has grown in less than 10 years to the second largest automobile manufacturing plant in the United States and is now in a posi- tion to materially aid in speeding up the war program.
 When this wonderful growth is taken into consideration says Man. ager H. H. Hotch1iss of the Arizona Overland Co.,, Phoenix, it speaks vol umes of praise for the far sighted vision of the officials of the company. For the underlying reason behind this successful development has meant that It's product has met the popular de- mand.
 ''The policy of the company has been to sense the motor needs of the great est number of people and build a sub Istantial motor car best adapted to meet them. Many factors are to be consid- cred in forecasting the desires of the motor buying public. but the officials | have held unalterably to five main tents. These being appearance, per formance. comfort, service and price. Cars Happy Medium "The appareance of Overland cars must be neither too exaggerated nor too commonplace. They have all the big car style of design, with plenty of room and good color harmony. l Their performance is built upon a motor designed for thrifty use of gaso- line with ample power, mounted upor a durable and dependable chassis. They lmust be easy to operate, with narrow Turning radius.
 Tn comfort they must have tho leasiest riding qualities it is possible tc lobtain. To make this possible, much Thought has been expended upon the lcantilever spring suspension and lengtf of wheel-base. They must all b, roomy, so that there will be no cramp ing after the longest drive.
 Service Stations Everywhere
 "To give the greatest possibl amount of service, Willys- Overland Inc, has gone to great lengths to pro
 vide fully equipped service station
 covering the country. No Overlan, owner need ever be put to inconveni
 ence through lack of service
 Finally, in the matter of price. i
 has always been the policy of tn Willys- Overland to make and marke
 their product at the lowest possibl margin. Il is the desire of the com pany to place the automobile in reacl
 of the largest number of people
 How well this policy has appeale, to the public is best understood by trip to the mammoth plant in Toled ; where it is busy day and night turnin
 out supplies for the government C
 every kind and in addition maxim every effort to keep its production u 10 the increasing demand rsr over land cars"

INTO JADED BODIES

The automobile is an automatic means of injecting new life into jaded bodies. It clears the mind steadies the nerves and fills the lungs full of fresh air. It puts you in the proper frame of mind to re- ceive the most benefit from vour spare hours. -Kisselgraphs.

Delcasse had listened with

evolved.

eyes. "You are in earnest? You
are not deceiving me?"
"Nol" said Delcasse, solemnly.

proud to take her place at the head

then he stopped, and a shadow
fitted across his face. "There is

The door had closed behind the

white haired enthusiast, and for a
moment the three men who were
left behind gazed at each other in
silence.
