MEDIUM WEIGHT GAR
 GAINS POPULARITY

Tt was not very long ago that peo- pie used to think appearance, comfort and convenience of equipment were only possible in heavy automobiles, says Bert o. Brown, local lealer in Chevrolet passenger cars and trucks.
 Everyone possessed the idea that automobiles had to be large as well as heavy to have adequate power, strength and easy riding qualities.
 Tt has only taken the medium weight type of car a short time to prove that it not only can possess all the desired features of heavy cars, but ii can offer them for less money. For that reason it has made the possession of an automobile possible to millions who never could afford a heavy and expensive car.
 ''The medium weight car of today is trim and attractive in appearance. It has body lines that are shared by the most expensive models. Method of quantity production, also, have made it possible to add all those smart re- finements that gratify both the body and the eye. It has proved that the power is not a question of ballast but of balance. Besides, medium weight car is more easily proportioned to utilize every ounce of the power in its engine.
 Tn the early days even the most expensive cars could not all boast of electric lights, self-starter, one-man top, windshield, demountable rims. and a spare rim that are now part of the regular equipment of all completely equipped cars.
 Besides there's the one invulnerable argument in favor of the medium weight car-economy Less weight means less consumption of gasoline less wear on tires, and less strain on every part as well easier driving.

AN EX|DE BATTERY FUR EVERY MODEL
 AUTOMOBILE MADE

The recent war with Germany brought into prominence many indus- tries that heretofore, though of vast proportions, were more or less familiar only to those directly interested in them or their products. One of these industries was that of storage battery manufacture. Storage batteries were used by the United States army and navy in a vast number of important situations and many of the most teli- ing instruments of modern warfare on both land and sea could not have been operated so dependably and efficiently had not the storage battery been de- veloped to it's present high state of perfection.
 service station, in dilating upon the progress made in storage battery man. ufacture during the last quarter cen- tury. remarked that the importance of the battery in warfare, large as IL is, is small compared to it's necessity to industrial life. As an instance of the detailed attention given to this product" said he. "The Electric Stor- age Battery company, the largest man- ufacturer of storage batteries in the world, is today making starting and lighting battery that is designed and manufactured in enough varying models to perfectly suit the demands of every type of automobile. In other words. the engineers in back of this battery have studied the automobile not as an abstract proposition, but in the minutest detail and have evolved certain batteries to successfully meet the specific conditions of each auto- mobile manufactured in this country today. Thirty years ago the manu- lecture of any really practical stor- age battery was scoffed at by cleo trical engineers. Less than a decade ago the application of self starting and lightning to the automobile was noth- ing more than a dream of a few opti- mists. Taking those facts into consid eration and then glancing at this chart here on my wall, which shows the lengthy list of battery types demanded by the automobile industry of today we have pretty convincing evidence o1 the rapid strides made in storage bat tery practice"

Modern concrete roads, with as phaltic surface or surfacing Of heavy oil. furnish rather d new problem for he spring designer who seeks utmost comfort for the automobile passenger declares J. A. Shaulis, manager of the Phoenix store of the Western Auto Supply agency Bumps and chuck loles are rather rarely encountered nowadays in Phoenix, but what about the country roads, with their holes and ruts? Even in Phoenix, the roadsur facing sometimes becomes ripped enough to impart a very annoying vii bration to cars driven over it rapil- ly.
 That is something it is almost i'm possible to overcome without the use Of auxiliary coil springs or shock ab- sorbers. An automobile spring that would be flexible enough to smooth out these small unevennesses Of the road surface would be entirely too flexible when a really rough road was encountered.
 For that reason, we have noticed a growing popularity in the use of the coil spring shock absorbers, of the Johnson type for the larger cars and the double arm shock absorbers for Ford cars. By the use of these, The motorist finds that the small vii brations caused by the uneveness of our good roads is completely elimi- hated and that the bigger bumps are materially lessened.

an outer and inner coil of fine steel spring is supplied. The small, inner coil takes up the light shocks but when the tension of the small coil is com pressed to equal the tension of the auter coil. the outer coil then comes int play and a long free action or more than two inches is permitted. Both shock and recoil are minimized by this type of device and the heavier jars of the road are decidely softened. The double arm shock absorber installed on a Ford car. overcomes the rough ness of the ordinary road and great 1 ly lessens the rougnness of the ex- tremely rough roads.
 Motorists are becoming more and more particular regarding the factor of comfort in their matoring. The auxiliary shock absorber for their | springs is one of the most important additions they can make to their cars as far as their comfort is concerned

Daniels Spurs Navy
To Even Greater
Strides in Peace
Tells Graduating Class at
Annapolis That U. S.
Forces Shall Not Mark
Time, but Move Forward

ANNAPOLIS, Md, June e.-Secre-
tary Daniels, in an address at the
graduating exercises at the United
States Naval Academy to-day, declared
that the closing of hostilities did not
mean the United States Navy could
"rest on its oars" but that it must
surpass its great war record by a
greater record in peace"
The 454 members of the graduating
class, the largest in the history Of the
academy, were urged by the Secretary
to apply all their initiative and energy
in the great task of developing the eff
cheney Of the navy.
"You are coming into the navy in a
period that will challenge all your re-
source and initiative" said Secretary
Daniels. "You must not imagine for a
moment that because the war is ended
the navy will or can rest on its oars.
All your force and energies are needed
for we are determined the navy shall
not mark time for decade Our pol
icy must be that it shall move con-
stantly forward, improving IN efficiency
and making new records and dscov-
cries. The navy has made a great rec
ord in war Let us make a greater
record in peace"
Secretary Daniels reviewed the rec
ord Of the navy's inventive enterprise
and will to overcome obstacles mani
tested during the war as a vital con-
trlbution to the final result. This rec
ord, he said, challenged the enterprise
and inventive genius of American naval
officers for all future time.
"We want men who will think the
unthinkable and solve the unsolvable,"
declared the Secretary, "who will dare
to tackle the problems that have so
long puzzled the world"
Mr.. Daniels read an "all-navy" mes
sage, which he issued during the war,
inviting all officers of the navy to sub
nit any plan or suggestion they might
have "to help the American navy win
the war; This invitation still stands,
the Secretary said, adding that no Off
Ger should hesitate on account of rank
to communicate to the Navy Depart
ment any we'll considered suggestion
designed to improve the American
navy.
"The day of isolation for America
has passed." he said. THE ancients
believed the seas were to separate ma
tions. We have learned they are to
unite them in bonds of friendship.
The close association of men of the
American navy with the naval person
mel of Allied countries has done two
friendships, which
will endure, and foreshadowed inter-
national relations which will preserve
the peace of the world"
