DETROIT ELECTRICS
Have INDIVIDUALITY
New Models Stand Out as Quality
Cars in Appointments.

TN the early days Of the motor car
industry. about all that was received
with the original purchase Of the car
was an engine, chassis and body.
Refnements. such as horns, lamps
and other necessities" says Mr.. Fos-
ter. the commercial manager Of ster-
rett q Fleming. exclusive distributors
Of the Detroit Electric for Washing
ton. Maryland and Virgins" /" were
extras. and the reader OF maii-order
catalogues was quite often known by
his motor car.
traption-bedecked cars now appear,
they at least were distinctive. But
today only few motor cars can claim
any individuality or particular quality
that Is evidence Of the owners per
sonal tastes. And Of the few the De-
troit Electric stands out in front as
. quality car In every respect.
while the modern motor car Is now
fitted with labor-saving devices and
even luxuries, to say nothing OF being
completely equipped at the factory,
they are seldom distinctive. In fact,
most motorists identify their machines
by the license number. committing II
to memory against the chances that
they will drive away some Other mans
car. Of the same make. by mistake.
Such a thing IL impossible with q De-
troit Electric.
mot only can the individual obtain
a car that IL distinctive unto himself.
but he, at the same time, knows that
the quality Of the car Is in no way
affected nor Is O large increase in price
necessary for such individuality.
ITO start with. the design OF a De-
troit Electric is the finest thing that
advanced practices In coach and body
design can produce. The trimmings
which are standard for the cars, are
selected with a view to q harmony OF
the entire Job, and also experts have
added every touch Of comfort and
luxury that could be imagined.
From the ground up Detroit Elec-
tries are quality cars. The materials
and workmanship Of the moving parts
and chassis are such that the cases
Of trouble with Detroit Electric
mechanism are rare. The finish and
trimmings are in the same category.
Each owner is given a wise selection
of upholstering materials and colors
for the body finish. The special tastes
Of any purchaser can be met without
additional cost"

lieve the transportation pressure on

delivery SERVICE" said Mr.. Neumeyer.
the local distributor of the Mitchell
motor car, the other day.
There need be no restriction on the
legitimate use Of motors or automo-
biles rendering magnificentIy- loyal
service, second only to the railroads,
to our government at this time.
The nations transportation facilI-
ties may be bettered or made more
complex, by the degrees of co-opera-
ton between corporation and between
individuals In knowing and solving
their own transportation problem
promptly and intelligently.
Transportation of mercha ndise Is
going to be one of the greatest fea-
lures Of war times. Merchandise of
every character is going to be trans
ported for short hauls. and oftentimes
for long hauls where the roads will
permit. thus relieving the railroads of
much OF the traffic which naturally
holds up freight cars and puts them
out Of the running for the long hauls
which are now SO important and which
are growing constantly more i'm
portant
III We do not keep our great ma
tional transportation system going,
war industries will suffer and with
out industries we cannot win the war.
The motor car is one of the essentials.
The nonessential element. let It again
be repeated. already Is largely elimi-
mated and whatever remains will be
eliminated without restrictive legisla-
ton that would eliminate the neces-
sary and essential as well.
I'VE are effecting great economies
by elimination of waste, and when
this is carried still further It will be
possible to save enough to meet the
entire demands Of our allies by this
economy"

Behind saxon's fall and winter

ALL ENLISTMENTS STOP
Navy-Women Wanted For Shore
Duty.

As under the present Government
ruling, no men are allowed TO enlist
in the army or other branches of the
service. the United States Army Re
cruiting Station, at 16 st. Paul street,
Baltimore, Will close on September
10, and the l 5 men detached on duty
there will be sent to Columbus, Ohio.
While no men have been allowed to
enlist in the army since early in Au-
from Washington suspending enlist
ments, it was thought that this ban
was only temporary and would be
lifted soon after the second registra-
ton went into effect.
The only voluntary enlistments
hereafter authorized will be of men
between the ages of As and Sc.
/ These men are only allowed to join
| the staff corps and departments and
! the number will be so small that they
can easily be handled through the
!
No such action has yet been taken
and is not expected to be taken In
regard to the Navy and the Marine
| Corps Although at present they are
not allowed to do any recruiting, Of
ficers in charge of these stations are
of the opinion that the ban on en-
listments in those two branches of
the service will soon be lifted and
work will start again. The Navy re-
cruiting office at Calvert and Lex
mgton streets is at present receiving
applications from men who want to
join the Navy if the ban is later lif-
ted and giving them physical eXami-
nations.
These applications will be kept on
file and if enlistments are again al
lowed. all of the men who passed the
examinations will be allowed to join.
But although men cannot join the
Navy now, women are allowed and
encouraged to enlist for land duty
The Bureau of Navigation has issued
call for women to relieve as many
men as possible from shore duty so
that they can be sent to sea. The
women will be enrolled as landsmen,
or yeomen, in the Naval Reserve if
they qualify. and assigned to active
duty probably at Washington, Nor
folk or Annapolis.
They must b. between l S and 35
years of age. and their minimum sal
AIRY will be 500 a month, which in
