Ne " bEVELED EDGE
BODY DESIGN IS
ORIGINATED

Each succeeding motor exposition
brings forth design refinements of
many kinds-many of which are but
the whims of individual designers and
never gain general recognition" says
r. T. Hodgkins, general sales manager
of the Studebaker Corporation.
ION the other hand, the keen OBJ
server at the automobile show sees
each season some dominant design
keynote which has suddenly and mex
plicably sprung into being as an APP
proved motor fashion adopted stimuli
taneously by dozens Of the more ex-
pensive cars which cater to the elite
of motordom.
We all remember the first fore door
models, the cowl dash, the first general
attempts at stream-line effects the in
novation of one-man tops and the era
of the crown tenders. This years
show brings a new member to this
style family, new touch of refinement
which fits gracefully into the evolution
which goes forward constantly toward
the ultimate ideal of perfect motor car
design.
l9lS's style innovation is to be found
IN a dozen or more of the finest motors
cars at the show. 1t is a conspicuous
bevel along the top edge of the body
beVel which turns inward at an angle
OF about forty-five degrees
This long stream-line beveI accen-
tuates the length of the car and gives
1t low ra1ish appearance Trimmed
IN contrasting color to that of the
main part of the body, it adds an out
standing touch of color, which imme-
diately bespeaks the aristocrat.
1.-The fact that this new element of
design is so prominent among the fin
est cars at the show this year, and that
well Informed body designers say it
VIII be a decided favorite for years to
come, make 1t of interest to know
where the new style originated.
investigation discloses the fact that
While this is the first time the new
bevel-edge effect has been seen on
stock cars, the same idea appeared on
custom body job nearly two years
ago. At that time j. Horace Borugon.
body engineer of the Studebaker Cor
poration, and long famous as a creator
OF distinctive body types, brought out
a special Studebaker job which made
use OF the stream-line bevel just as it
appears on these motor car aristocrats
at 1918 shows. This creation was called
the Studebaker "Bourgonette" and won
considerable recognition at the time as
| one of the finest special custom body
jobs that had ever been produced in
America
This year Mr.. Bourgon utilized the
same idea in working out the body de-
sign of the Series 10 Studebaker Big
Six, and a score of other designers
have followed in his footsteps to such
an extent that the bevel- edge. born
with the Studebaker 'Bourgonette,' is
now the accepted quality feature of
design among the finest 1918 models of
| American motor cars.
The Studebaker Big Six in addition
to pioneering the new bevel-edge
brings forward other features of strik-
/ ing design. A very advanced workins

1T is also worthy of note that the

the top of both Studebaker skies were
also a feature of Mr.. Bourgon's special
body Bourgonette.' This style feat

Forestry After the War.

Nobody except those of us who have
seen something Of life at the front
during the last four years can realize
what an enormous quantity Of timber
has been taken from this country for
war purposes and what an enormous
amount of planting and tending Of
trees will be necessary to replace it.
Unfortunately foresters who really I'M
derstand all that afforestation means
are not numerous in England, and
though the necessity Of educating
youngsters for the work has received
much more serious attention in the
last few years than it ever did before,
when our methods-as in many other
things-were haphazard, the facilities
are still hardly sufficient to give US
enough foresters to cope with the de-
mand.-Westminste Gazette.

The J -expected.

An amazing aistance of the unex-
pected happen lg at the front
ended in Fl 'nch and a German
pilot landing to ether. The French
man and the German were circling
and dipping tor battle positi n.
Suddenly, the French pilot think
ing he had til, advantage, CHARGED
his enemy from the rear. But the
German did MT swerve sufficiently
and the left wing of the French
machine struck the right-hand
struts Of the G arman. The collision
caused the Freach airplane to spin
around violently until it's tail whizzed
between the wings of the German
and stuck. Apparently being too busy
or perhaps too astonished-to shoot
at each other, the opponents spiraled
side by side In a close embrace, ulti-
mately crashing into the boughs Of
some trees. Neither pilot was hurt,
so they clambered out, looking at each
Other-and the German was reminded
that he was prisoner.

UNITED OLD AND NEW WORLD
Atlantic Gable, After Three Disheart-
enind Failures, Was Successfully
laid In JuIy-August, 1858.

Sixty years ago our broad Yankee
land awoke and learned that the old
country and the new had been united
by q magical tie-the Atlantic cable.
Through the courage and persistence
Of three Americans-there were 9TH
ers. but the three were the actual cable
sponsors w. Field, his brother,
David Dudley Field, and that fine old
philanthropist, Peter Cooper-the great
project was carried over. The total
cost was $1,S34,5O0, the cable alone
taking 1,256,25O, and the line crossed
from Trinity bay, Newfoundland, to
valentia, Ireland, the cable being very
close to $500 miles long.
Three times the attempt to lay the
cable had failed, chiefly owing to de-
fects in its material. The fourth at
tempt was successful. The Niagara,
then the largest ship In the United
States navy, and the Agamemnon,
British warship, met in midocean on
July 20, 1858, each carrying section
Of the cable. The ends were carefully
spliced and then the two ships turned
homeward, moving slowly as they paid
out the cable. On August the Mia
CARA reached Trinity bay; the Aga
memnon reached Valentia on the 9th.
On August 16 the cable was pro-
nounced in working order, and here is
the first official message that passed
across:
Europe and America are united by
telegraphy. Glory to God in the high
est; on earth peace, good will toward
men,"

President of National Editorial

Election in Colorado.

Guy U. Hardy, newspaperman and
congressman-elect from the Third
Colorado district, is a man with the
courage of his convictions. AS pro

Record he believes in the value Of
advertising. AS Republican candi-
date against Congressman Edward
Heating he put that belief into prac-
tice. Now he is more convinced than
ever that advertising pays.
On the face of the situation Mr..
Hardy appeared to be cherishing a
forlorn hope. His opponent had
been in congress six years. His last
plurality had been 9,046. He ap-
peared to be strongly intrenched.
The only hole in his political fences
appeared to be poor record in war
legislation; this had turned some of
the Democrats against him. In fact

England Grows SunfIowers.

The big war revival in agriculture is
producing many interesting expert
ments in the growing of new crops on
land not in use for growing human
food. For example, big area in Eng
land is now, on the suggestion of the
food production department, planted
with sunflowers. the seeds of which
are valuable both as source of oil
and for poultry food.
Small cultivators are also urged by
the government to SOW sugar beets as
an improved food for stock, especially
for pigs. Farmors whose cereal crops
have failed owing to attacks from diff
1erent parasites are advised to grow
instead linseed. The latest reports
from the country show unprecedented
activity in potato planting in spite of
the bad weather last spring.

ality Are Cooperating With the
Allies in France.

Napoleon once said of the Polish
tho beginning of the We" il has been
Il o..oItion of the Poles again to
distinguish themselves in the field, re-
gSin their ancient prestige and win
from the world the admission that
their services entitle their nation to
autonomy and independence.
Russia for political reasons discour-
aged the idea of distinctive Polish
army both under the rule of the car
and under Kerensky. OF course under
the bolsheviki the agitation ended. So
the Poles turned to France, which
babe them welcome and in an order
dated June 4, 1917, decreed the crea-
ton of distinct Polish legion.
Now the legion, which h; 5 grown so
fast that it is really an army, is about
to take its place on the battle line,
having been modified in great camp
named Sille-le-Guillaume near LIE
Mans. The uniform is the same as
the French, with the exception of q
distinctive headdress, the "czapka."
The officers are Frenchmen and Poles
who have served in France.
1t Will be news to most Americans
that since the early days OF January
large detachnlents of well-drilled Poles
have been arriving in France from the
United States. They are the regi-
ments which Ignace Paderewski was
tireless and devoted in recruiting.

BIG DEMAND FOR CASTOR OIL
Government Has Arranged for Exten.
sive Cultivation Of the Plant
Needed in War Service.

Among the war boOmS is one in the
production Of the castor bean, and
the government has become a partner
in the industry of producing the plant
and extracting the oil. The govern
ment has let contracts for the cultiva-
ton of 100000 acres of the plant and
nearly all this area contracted Tor lies
in the South, 10000 acres being in
Florida.
The government has entered this line
of industry because the demand for
this strange oil has outstripped the
supply, and the price has risen to
great height. But it was not the high
price of the article which induced such
action, but the scarcity of the oil,
which is considered as being essential
to the prosecution Of the war. Castor
oil is usually thought of in terms of
medicine, but its highest value to the
allies in this war is as a lubricant for
engines Of maximum power and mini
mum weight, engines whose pistons
work at the greatest possible speed.
For airplane engines it is the best lu-
bricant known, and that is what castor
Oil is being now largely used for.
The cultivation of the castor plant,
which was once quite a flourishing in
dustry in several of the states Of the
West, notably California and Kansas,
and also in some of the southern states,
languished because of the competition
of castor beans grown in India and be-
cause of the development of the petro-
leum industry and the competition of
mineral Oil lubricants.

At END OF GLACIAL PERIOD
Geological Authority Msk.s Deduo-
tions From Shrinking Of Great
Ice Cap at IT, South Pole.

DR.. Marsden Manson of San Fran
cisco, an emine / authority on geology,
points to the A"t established by re-
cent Antarctic llorers that the great
ice cap is sh1 king. From this he
draws the conc sion that the gradual
subsistence of t g Age of Ice of which
the polar ice caps are the existing
remnants, is IL going on and that
we live, so to 6 oak, at the tail end of
the glacial per a. He expresses the
conviction tina the same succession
of geological 'imates has prevailed
In Antarctic as n other ATTITUDES, and
says that the e, dence collected in re-
cent Antarctic DlOrations is corrobo-
rated by the co, :paratively recent I'M
covering of tenn crate land areas and
the progressive retreat of the snow
line to higher e avations In temperate
and tropical lat ,udes and toward the
poles at sea lie, H. He comes to the
conclusion that the disappearance of
the Ice Age Is an active present process
and must be &C cnnted for by actiyi-
ties and energi' now at work. He
considers it as roved that the rates
and lines Of retr It are and have been
determined by yposure to solar en-
ergy and the tie !perature established
thereby and by the difference in the
specific heat Of the land and water
hemispheres.
