DODGE APPEALS
TO war WORKERS
Mrs. BalIngton Booth Used
Car in France to Take
Entertainers About

Among the numerous letters Of con-
graduation received by Dodge Bros.
on the performance OF their 1900
cars serving with the American army.
there is one which the manufacturers
especially prize. 1t was written by
Mrs. Ballington Booth. one OF the
chiefs OF the Volunteers of America.
the organization that endeared itself
to the American doughboys for Its
splendid welfare work In the Euro
pean war.
The letter, which is in most respects
similar to hundreds OF others COM
menting on the service given by
Dodge Brothers motor car, is as fol-
lows:
Several times while travelling
through France and Germany l was
inspired to exclaim, II really must
write to the Dodge Company when 1
get home and tell them what 1 think
of their car Now that am home
that intention has not weakened. I
have spent the whole of this winter
in France and Germany amid the
mud and rain and shell-torn roads of
the battle front, and later over the
steep mountains and through the mar
row gorges between Luxembourg and
the Rhine.
Gen. Pershing gave me for my use
while / served with the A. z. F., a
Dodge car With my little company
of entertainers / was enabled to go
to many of the boys in Isolated spots

for me and would have gone without

We travelled hundreds OF miles.
sometimes over almost impa ssable
roads. We scaled mountains, where
at every minute we had reason to
fear that our little car might balk
at further pressure. But we never
had a minutes trouble. can say
most emphatically that the Dodge
gave splendid service and held out
where we have found other cars dis
abled by the roadside.
when my service with the army
was through and I had to return
the car to them / felt as il was
parting with a personal friend and
wished that IL could run me down
to Brest and be taken aboard the
transport and sail for home with
me.
From what ] have heard from
many sources. | believe that others
have had just as successful expe-
rience with the Dodge at the front
as we have had"
The cars that served in the army
were of standard specifications. pre-
cisely like the Dodge Brothers mo-
tor cars that are being built day
after day for domestic and foreign
markets.

Q. When rounding a corner which
wheels travel the fastest and why?
A. The outer wheels naturally have
to travel faster than the inner be-
cause they have further to travel.

HAYNES CAR ADS
Colossal Campaign Takes
Literature to Furthest
Corners of Globe.

The national government learned
the value of advertising in mobilizing
the morale of the American people
during the world conflict Now the
administration is applying the lesson
learned TO the reconstruction period,
and the call to advertise is being
sounded throughout the nation. The
wheels Of industry must move 10
insure national prosperity. and,
realizing that advertising is one of
the best promoters OF business, the
government believes that through ad-
vertising. the good business ahead"
slogan will be justified.
With a thorough belief in the
worthiness of powerful ADVERTISING,
and in the spirit of true nationalism,
the Haynes Automobile Company.
kokomo. Ind. is directing the biggest
advertising campaign in the twenty
six years Of its history
The Haynes colossal campaign is
International in its scope. reaching to
the furthest corners Of the globe, -
says A G. Seiberiing. vice president
and general manager Of the company.
"A compilation OF the total circula-
ton of the advertising media in
cluded by the Haynes company shows
that the message of Haynes chsrsc-
ter cars reaches N5. 900 900 readers. or
approximately twice the population
| of the United States"
Already hard pressed to meet the
unusual demand for the new 1871
Haynes cars. officials OF the company,
in anticipation of a still greater de-
mand, are constructing new buildings
which. when completed next fall. will
bring the output OF cars TO 5000 ali
nually.
