 The finish of Dodge Brothers cars and the entire equipment is of the same quality as that which goes into their passenger car. It contains the same cleo tric lighting and starting system. Its appearance is credit and distinction to any establishment.

Point of Foch's Strategy

Ma. Gen. Sir Frederick Maurice In liar
 per'S Magazine.
 The outstanding feature of Fochs generalship is that he has kept the bat tie going continuously for two months on an overwhelming front, which em- braces eventually the whole 150 miles from Flanders to Champagne. Before Foch made his counters -stroke both allied and German generals had, after months of preparation, and by employing great superiority of force upon comparative ly narrow battlefront, sustained an offen- sive for long periods, but no commander before Foch, in this war, he succeeded on the western front in waging battle with continuous and ever growing success without greatly superior numbers anu without long preparation. It is well known that before the second battle of the Marne the German forces on tho western front were superior to those of the French and British. It is also well known that, although the number of American troops in France was large, those whose training for battle was com pleted were not, prior to General Per shing's victory at St. Mihiel, very numer- ous. The measure of Foch's genius is shown by the fact that he has in- flicted crushing defeat upon the enemy without any great preponderance ot force The enemy's swift progress in March and in May was possible because he had great weight behind his blows; the allied progress was more deliberate because that weight was lacking. Now that the ultimate defeat of Germany has come, we know that in Marshal Foch the allies have leader of the first rank The Hindenburg-Ludendor combina- ton has proved to be no better than that of any other German commanders who have tried their hands in the west ana failed.
