MUST SPEED UP WORK.
No City District Over 60 Per Cent Of
Quota in u. W. w.

Unless renewed activity is shown by
solicitors in the city districts for the
united war work lcampaign, the city is
not going to raise it's quota for this
fund by Sunday. Reports turned in
up to today show that none Of the city
districts has raised to exceed about 60
per cent of its quota, and most of the
districts have not yet raised that much.
This situation shows that sub district
captains must insist that their teams
finish at once the work Of soliciting
their territories. This work, the
returns show. must be done thor
oughly. and where persons are missed
the solicitors must go back until their
subscriptions are secured. In no other
way will the city's quota be raised. No
additional reports have come from
country districts.

CHANDLER SIX MAKES
WORLDS RECORD FOR
CONTINUOUS DRIVING

What is believed to be the worlds
record for continuous driving lie
claimed on behalf of the Chandler six
by j. A. Van Horn. OF Los Angeles,
Cal, who has made $4,000 miles in
thirteen months, or an average OF 2ST
miles day for that period.
This car, which has been used for
carrying newspapers from Los An"
geles to Santa Barbara. has travelled
as many miles in little over year
as the average owner would In fifteen
or twenty years.
The daily run of ear was made
with a load of 1000 to 5000 pounds
OF newspapers, or else with q load OF
passengers and trailer behind. IN
the entire thirteen months the daily
trip was not missed once. The car
averages fifteen miles TO a gallon OF
gasoline, according tn the careful re-
cord kept by Mr. Van Horn.
(. The only change In the car as ship
ped from the factory was its equip
ment with oversize cord tires, These
tires have been giving an average OF
$4,000 miles to the set, which shows
that the car has been remarkably
easy on tires. in spite OF the loads car
ried.
Records like that of Mr.. Van Horn
show that the modern motor car lis a
surprisingly sturdy mechanism" says
Sales Manager James NJ Dunlap, OF
the Chandler Motor Car company.
with ordinarily decent usage, the
buyer OF u Chandler or other good
car can expect his car to give good
service for almost unlimited periods,
As compared with most other things
he buys.
There are very few mechanisns
that are conn parable TO a good motor
car in wearing qualities. yet no other
mechanism is half so complex. Peo-
pie do not give the motor car engi-
neers enough credit for the really
marvellous things they have done In
developing the modern motor car"

maximum fine on the street car COM
pany for failure to abide by the re-
quirements OF the franchise, aud in
each case an appeal has been noted.
