sixth gold star has been added to the

near Sedan, on the Huese was being
taken.
The Goodyear service flag now con-
tains 6,201 stars, Sc of them being OF

another death from the ranks of this
large body of men who laid down their
work at the Goodyear factories to

Service Comes First,
Says Weldex Man

Service is the biggest factor for the
dealer to consider today, according to
r. II. Fetta, of the Weldex company,
which handles Clydesdale, Master.
commerce and Garford trucks.
This year, service will be more i'm
portant than ever" said Fetta. Parts
Will wear out, cars will have to be
overhauled, and all makes, whether
passenger cars or trucks, will need
some attention in order to render SER
vice expected by owners. Dealers are
IN business to sell passenger cars and
trucks, but too many neglect the sell
ing of service. After this company
fas made sale, we have added per
nanent customer to our list and if we
do not retain his patronage through
lack of service it is our fault.
In buying a passenger car or truck
me purchaser considers the purchase
IN business manner He realizes
that in order to get proper results on
his investment he must take proper
care of his vehicles, truck or passen-
ger car. He knows that he will un-
doubtedly have to buy spare parts
from time to time as well as to have
repairs taken care of efficiently and
promptly.

BY c. E. CLAUDY

The automobile of the future will
be weather-tight. OF course, there
will always be as many, if not more,
body models, but they will all tend
toward one standard. And this STAN
dard model will be weatherproof at
fair. Probably all glass sides, front,
rear and roof.
The glass sides will come down, OF
course, for warm weather. Curtains
inside will keep out the sun, and a
roof curtain will keep off sun when
shade is wanted. But frames, instead
of being of heavy wood or metal, will
approximate the framing now used on
most modern glass showcases.
The power plant of a car will be
under the body, or on or near the rear
axle.
Now wait a minute. A thousand
gasoline engineers are about to rise
and call me wicked names and tell me
it can't be done | dare say it can't
with a gasoline engine.
But who said the car of the future
was to have a gasoline engine?
There is as least one comparatively
new development in the steam car
field which does this very thing-puts
the power plant where it belongs, close
to the rear axle, thus dispensing with
the long shaft, the universals, and
their likelihood of breaking and wear
ing out, and their power loss.
Electric automobiles OF the present
all have their power plants on or near
the point of power APPLICATION. One
truck which drives from all four

CAR OF FUTURE TO LEAVE NO WORK
FOR DRIVER, IS BELIEF OF EXPERT

wheels and at least one front drive
passenger car show that some en-
gineers appreciate the real mechan-
ical need of putting the source of
power and the place where the power
is applied as close together, not as
far apart, as possible.
The car of the future won't leave
anything to be done by man power. In
q few years foot brakes will be things
of the past except on cheap cars. Why
should man exert muscle to stop a
car any more than to start it? What's
that great brute of an engine idiing
under the hood for?
And in the future the car with the
steering wheel will be as obsolete as
The car with hand pump for gas or
oil today
The car of the future will have no
such thing as "driVer's seat" All the
seats in the car except one will be
movable. Driving will be done by a
small control board which can be held
in the lap. 1t will be connected to
the mechanism by a flexible electric
cable.
A small finger lever, not a wheel,
will guide the car Another will at
tend TO speed changes, buttons viii
light and warm the car, blow the horn,
apply the brakes, everything. The
driver will sit right or left, as he
pleases, or even on country roads in
the rear seat. Driving then will be
what it ought to be, not a physical
but a mental exercise.

Clam Shells Make Ideal
Race Track in Florida

In connection with the wonderful
performance of Ralph De Palma, in
establishing new worlds automobile
speed records from one to twenty
miles attaining the marvellous speed OF
$50 miles an hour with his big Pack
ard, on Goodyear cord tires, it is in
teresting to note that on the Daytona
beach in Florida, where the new re-
cords were made, the sand is COM
posed mainly of very thin clam shells
which for ages have been pounded and
pulverized by the waters. Upon the
recession of the tides these small
shells pack down into cement that
becomes as hard as asphalt The
speedway is rebuilt twice daily-with
the recession of each tide, and is
usually in the best shape after a
pounding lashing tide has gone out.
The beach is about 400 feet wide and
extends for miles,

MOTOR DEMAND
BREAKING ALL
SALES RECORDS
Studebaker Distributor Here
Says Business Was Never as
Good as Now.

Where are the wiseacres now who,
ures, told the world that the automo-
bile industry had reached a point of
saturation and was about to have it's
large production clothes made over
into smaller size?" asks Clean Nc
Conaha, of the McConaha company, To-
cal distributor of Studebaker cars. Il
haven't heard from one of them lately.
They are strangely silent, with sill
ence that Is significant. There's no
such thing as "saturation point" in
this business. AS long as there is
work to be done, as long as folks
must get from one place to another
quickly, comfortably and economically
and as long as human beings con-
tinue to enjoy the pleasures and
healthful benefits of life out-of-doors
--there'll be a market for all the mo-
tor cars the factories can produce
There's a tremendous demand now
for all motor cars. Business never
was so good as 1t is now-and with
the regular selling season still to
come. There has been an increasing
demand for automobiles ever since the
collapse Of the central powers last No
vember.
Sales Records Broken.
"Since the first Of the year we have
broken all sales records. Selling cars
has been the least of our troubles
getting them from the factory In suf-
ficient quantities to fill the orders on
our books has caused us the only wor-
ry we may have experienced.
Demand From Coast to Coast.
This constantly increasing demand
FOR new Studebaker cars-for all good
cars-does not come from any one or
two particular localities. 1t is general
from one coast to the other The
balmy weather Of the past two months
has no doubt stimulated interest in
motoring anew and considerably ad-
vanced the regular selling season. But
the fact remains that the big majority
OF the new cars sold since Jan. l have
been purchased by people who have
never owned car beforehand do not
buy their caras ''in season" like the
veteran motorist. 1t also substantu-
ates my theory that the so-called point
OF saturation is still a long, long way
off,

.TWO-STATE CARS
DOUBLE IN MONTH

Production of cars in Michigan ana
Ohio during February was double tnat
of the preceding month. This is SHOWN
in the production reports for thirty
leading manufacturers. These plants
produced 1915 cars a day last montn'
as compared with ISIS day in Janu-
airy.
Every company with the exception OF
Packard is now in production. PACK
ard has started work on its new cars
and the first of these will leave the
assembly line some time in April
The detailed production figures FOR
the first two months of the year were
ac follows.

This is no wild guess, but the inev-
liable end of practice foreshadowed III
present developments. We have with
us now, for instance, the push button
electric gear shift. 1t displaces the
manual work of moving around set
of gears and does labor electrically,
with energy stored in the storage bat-
terry by the engine. OF course, the car
of the future will be without gears
but that is not the question.
Steam or electric steering has dis
placed hand steering on all the large
ships, so why should the motorist sit
bumped over much-in-the-way-of-
ur-comfort-wheel, when your engine
can supply the muscle and all you
need to supply is the brain?
