The citizens of Glenmora are
considering the water works pro
ject with growing interest. It is
ia the minds If the LEADERS, to
float bonds to tho value Of sl50e0
saas to start u good system aud
develop it as the. needs Of the cit
izens require.
We understand that there is
some opposition to this method OF
securing such a plant upon the
grounds that the town is too bad
ly scattered for a large use OF
waterworks, and that some will
have to pay taxes without secur-
ing returns for their money In
thu way of available water.
W., hope these persons win not

Thrift and economy, cham.
pionai bysrthe wonanhood OF
America, have won the Strue-
gle against greed and rapacity.
Gannons and guns and men did
their part on the field of battle
but it was the savings of the
men and women at home that
put them there.
Out of the 6eur-years trag-
edy has come the lesson of
thrift. Not the raiggardly
boarding of the miser, but the
knowledge of the value OF
economy that produced the
sage adyice of Burns:
Save money, not for to hide
it in a hedge.
Nor for a train attendant;
But for the glorious privilege
OF being Independent"
Women have always been
the savers in the home, from
,Reeassity. but 'the glorious
5vilaVe of being independ-
6l6 2 gained from the fulfill
meat Of a patriotic duty, has
giveA them an incentive TO
ecCH0eni1e and save for the
sheor joy Of saving.
A far-seeing government has
provided lib with a means of
saving ThraA Stamps, War
Savings Certificates, Liberty
Bondswhich, apart from
their use in winning the war,
have proved to be one of the
graakest moral and material
iaeasings ever devised.
There has been no letting
down of effort by the women
OF the Eleventh Federal Re-
serve District because the
Fourth Liberty Loan was put
over successfully and war was
declared ended soon after. It
has ever been the. part Of wo-
man TO do quietly, but effec-
tiYaly. those duties requiring
persistent effort, with a
thought only for the final re-
suit. Patiently and steadily
the officers Of the Women's
Liberty Loan Committees have
haen pseparing the way for the
rsext great demand, unchecked
by the fact that bsooiBhed has
eeesed.
As chairman Of the WOnan's
Isiberty Loan Committee Of
the Eleventh Federal Reserve
District, I ask every woman
ID the district to be true 10

Through necessity we learned

years ago, and for several seasons
previous the factory was unable to
supply its distributors and dealers with
enough cars to meet the demand. And
even with an output Of 10000 Sensible
Skies present conditions indicate that
history will repeat.
Demand from Farmers
"The demand from the agricultural
districts undoubtedly will be greater
than before. Not only has the farmer
learned how essential the automobile
is, but he can afford to buy one. The
gross value of his product has doubled
since the outbreak of the world war,
according to government statistics
"Nor is the metropolitan market
without rich possibilities for the
dealer. The unparalleled prosperity Of
the farmer is shared by the resident of
the city. Wartime increases in wages
and salaries will make it possible for
thousands of men and women to satisfy
their desire to own an automobile and
enjoy it's comfort and conveniences.
ut is logical to regard both the
farmer and the city dweller as Oak
land prospects For they have learned
the lesson Of conservation and thrift
and the Sensible Six with all it's
strength and power, is moderately
priced and economical to operate and
maintain, owners reporting returns of
IS to 25 miles from the gallon of gaso-
lene and from 5000 to 10000 miles
from tires"

Red Cross Class
For Women Paws Out

Early last fall H. A. Bonnell, auto
mobile dealer at Newark, established a
class to instruct the women of the local
Red Cross chapter 10 become efficient
drivers.
"Scores -of women enthusiastically
participated in the course" said Mr.
Bonnell. "Many of them not only be-
came expert drivers but competent me-
chanics as we'll. The class model was a
standard Dodge Brothers chassis. All
of them praised the simplicity Of its
construction and its unusual ease of
handling.
"The value of this course in emer-
gency work was especially demon
strated in the gray hours last fall after
the terrific explosion OF the ammuni-
tion plants on the shores of the Rari-
tan. During that dark period four
Dodge Brothers cars-two ambulances
one suburban and one touring car
manned by our women graduates
did ycoman service in rescuing the
wounded and transferring them to local

had with factory officials who are here

"The problems of the reconstruction
period, with which many automobile
makers now are wrestling, have been
solved as far as the builders of the
Oakland Sensible Six are concerned"
he said. "The decks are already
cleared for record breaking action at
the factory, and the big production
guns have started their bombardment.
During the twelve months Of 1919
more cars will be manufactured than in
any previous corresponding period Of
the company's history.
"The production schedule for 1919
calls for the manufacture of practically
twice as many cars as were built in
1917, when record for quantity out
put was established and the yield of
Sensible Skies entitled the company to
eighth place ranking among the 100
makers of passenger automobiles.
Plans for $4,000 Cars
"The company plans to build 10000
cars in 1919 without increasing it's
present manufacturing facilities to
any appreciable extent. In fact, plant
additions recently completed will not
be utilized as workshops but provide,
instead, lunch and locker rooms for
men and women employees.
"At the plant concentrated efficiency
has been sought and attained, and the
assembly of car from bare frame to
finished job, with the machining of it's
various component parts. is an elo-
quent tribute to industrial skill and
discipline.

duce new body and engine effects, and to
them usually goes credit for every new
departure in motor car building. But
in the case of the new Elgin six the
improvements and refnements are the
result of what Elgin dealers from the
Atlantic to the Pacific and from the
Canadian border to the Gulf have sug-
gested to the Elgin Motor Car Cor
poration.
Only few days ago Darwin Hatch,
editor of "Motor Age" during visit
to the Elgin factory, expressed wonder
at the features embodied in the new
six and asked how the changes had been
made. In a conversation with c. S.
Rieman, president and general man
ager of the Elgin company, he de-
clared he thought it remarkable that
the engineers were able to work out SO
many improvements and retinements.
"Since you have watched the Elgin
from its start and are so familiar with
our car and organization, l am going
to let you in on little secret, Mr..
Hatch," said President Rieman. "The
Elgin engineers did not actually decide
upon the thirty-six improvements and
refnements embodied in the new model.
1t was the automobile buying public
that made this decision for us. 1t has
always been the policy of the Elgin
company to build the kind of car the
public wants, and we set out to learn
exactly what the need was.
eve found out through the only cri-
terion whose judgment along these
lines can be relied upon-the automo-
bile dealers. The changes are the re-
suit of suggestions sent US by dealers
from the Atlantic to the Pacific and
from the Canadian border to the Gulf.
The dealers are out on the firing line
and are familiar with the performance
of the car under every conceivable con-
dition. Their desires represent what
the final judge, the automobile buyer,
demands in a car.
You will see, therefore, that the en-
gineering and manufacturing stats are
entitled to all the credit for working
out the details of the thirty-six i'm
provements and refnements, but the
dealers are primarily responsible
through their suggestions to US. 1t is
our policy to cooperate with the dealer
and the ultimate car buyer to the full
est extent, and this is one OF the prin-
cipal reasons why the Elgin dealers are
50 enthusiastic and so successful"

How Marmon Won
Liberty Motor Pennant
By Frank c.. Carrie
Vice-President, Marmon Automobile
Company of New York

In October the Bureau of Aircraft
Production OF the United States Gov
ernment offered an honor flag to be
competed for during October, 1918, and
each succeeding month, to the Liberty
motor factory which could build the
standard twelve-cylinder United States
aircraft engines best and ship them
signed each factory.
Accordingly, the Ford Motor Com
pany, General Motors Company, the
Lincoln Motor Company. the Packard
Motor Car Company and the Nordyke
& Marmon Company entered a pro-
duction race on the first of October.
On the first day of November the
Champion Liberty Motor Builders Pen
nant was awarded the employees of the
Nordyke & Marmon Company for a
production and shipment of 246.4 per
cent of it's allotted quota of test per
fected Liberty motors for October.
On Saturday, November 2, 1918, the
pennant WAS unfrrled and presented to
the employees of the Nordyke & Mar.
mon Company in an impressive cere-
mony following parade of the 5000
men and women workers of the plant
through the streets of indianapolis to
University Park, where the unveilinp
and presentation ceremonies were held
IN the presence OF delegations of high
government and army officials and a
vast throng of spectators. 1t was g
gala day for Indianapolis and the NAT.
dyke &, Marmon employees.
Following the Saturday celebration
parade and presentation the pennant
was raised in a simple, informal man
ner Monday, November a, in the plant
inclosure. All of the Liberty moto
workers took part in the event and ex
pressed pleasure in having put over Sc
fine surplus for Uncle Sam.
Then week later the armistice. O.
course, the Bureau Of Aircraft Produc
tons stimulation plans were endes
and all contests declared off. A LITTLE
later November 16) the Nordyke [

been manufactured the Peerless
has never been able to produce
it in quantities sufficient to satisfy the
demands of the motor public. This was
due entirely to war work, in which the
Cleveland concern has been actively en-
gagged for more than four years. Up
to and including part of 1918 rs per
cent of its capacity was devoted to the
manufacture of war materials; last
year this was increased to 100 per cent.
Under the curtailed production pro-
gram of 1918 the Peerless sold the last
of it's passenger-car model in August.
1t notified its distributors on August %
that no further orders could be filled
the output permitted by the War In
dustries Board has been sold-and dur
ing the remaining four months dealers
were compelled to turn away pros
pective buyers. At the urgent request
of the latter, dealers in many instances
sold the cars on display in their sales
rooms, thus depriving themselves of
even show model.
Now that the war is over the Peer
less has started production of the two
power-range model on basis that
should, within the year, enable it to
satisfy the trades demand, both past
and present. This is in keeping with
the policy announced by the Peerless
officials prior to the cessation of hos
tilities.
Increased faclities-the result of war
measures-will afford the manufacture
ers an opportunity to reach maximum
production on this model within the
very near future
with these added facilities at hand,
we soon will be in position to pro-
ducc the Peerless eight on scale here
tofore uninterrupted, and should, for the
first time in the history of the car, be
able to assure prompt delivery to all
buyers" declared Mr.. Schmunk in sum-
ming up the situation.
