prising to those who were in the wild fighting of the American forces to- ward the end of the war.
 According to Covert, the lieutenant was rushing side by side with his men straight at a German strong point which they had been ordered to take The rush was through con- paratlvely narrow opening, and the men and officer were going shoulder to shoulder as fast as they could run The Germans, in an effort to break the attack, were firing at the onrush- ing soldiers over open sights with artillery and one of the shells took off clean the head of the man nearest the lieutenant.
 The forward momentum of the man coupled with the steadying effect of the lieutenant on one side and pri- vate on the other was sufficient to carry the headless trunk forward from 10 to i 5 feet. An instant after the shell had passed the lieutenant glanced sideways and on beholding the headless body running forward went raving mad.

 When the United States entered the war the only hospital beds available for American soldiers were in two or three American Red Cross hospitals which were then being used for Brit ish troops. So rapidly were provi- sions made by the Red Cross that by the time American troops began to pour into France and England the supply of American hospital beds was ample. It was only during the inf1u- enza epidemic last fall that the de- mand exceeded the supply. In Octo- Der and November many cases had to be sent to British hospitals, where at

ESSEX QUALITIES APPEAL.
Houpt Tells of the Cars Great
Ability,

In discussing the wonderful success
OF the Essex Car Harry =. Houpt. presi-
dent OF the Hudson Motor Car Company
OF New York. the New York distributor
for the car said: Some of the chief
causes OF the Essex cars popularity in
the metropolitan district are its low In
itial cost, its economy of operation. its
beautiful body lines and last but not
least its easy riding qualities.
'The true New Yorker likes style and
smart lines. but more than that, he loves
his comfort most, and 1t is here that the
Essex car shines
''The Essex is so sturdly constructed
that II rides over the toughest roads
greater weight The riding quality OF an
automobile is in the springs Road in
equalities are the same no matter what
may be the size or length OF the car.
Tho springs of the Essex are as long and
as flexible and as carefully designed as
are those used under large and heavy
cars and they give as good results. In
the designing OF the Essex nothing In
the way OF comfort has been sacrificed
TO obtain more appearance. The beauty
OF the car comes from inherent qualities

BROAD TIRE TREADS.
Their Value Is Quite Apparent,
Says Expert.

Narrow treads on tires mean break
downs to the sidewalks for those who
drive their machines on country roads
where It Is impossible for the driver to
keep out OF ruts, says the B. F. Goodrich
Rubber Company expert
Side walls were not constructed to
withstand wear and tear and were not
intended to come in contact with the
road surface. They are made of an
extra high quality rubber. and their
chief purpose Is to lend bounce and re-
silence. Thousands of tires are de-
stroyed prema turely because country
roads and lanes are used not only by
the farmer but as well by the town and
city motorist. As tires roll along through
trough Of sand and gravel the side
walls grind away until the fabric car
cass of the tire is either wholly or par
TALLY exposed, thus allowing water and
other substances to enter the body OF
the tire to commence deterioration.
Motorists are commencing to realize

price. II Is its refinement of detail that
particularly appeals to women of dis
eliminating taste" says George Stowe.
president of the Mitchell Motor Car
Company of New York
Tho designers realized In developing
the new Mitchell Six that the prospec-
tive buyer OF this class OF car expects
and has a right to expect the same re-
finement and finish In the details Of the
car he buys as the man who has more
money to spend. And no car better ex-
emplifies how this condition can be met
than this new model
THE bodies. while they do not go to
extremes, represent the very best devel-
opment OF current body styles. They
are not only pleasing to look at but very
comfortable to ride In and permanent in
the excellence of their finish.
Real leather Is used for upholstering
and interlaced hair which keep it's
shape and does not wad down between
the cushion springs. Four coats OF fin
ishing varnish instead of the usual two
are among the means taken to make the
new Victory model stay good looking.
"A handsome top Of the best water
proof material. the lines Of which har-
monize perfectly with those Of the body.
distinguish this car from the others.
The top Is made even more attractive by
nickel trimming on the bows. while two
plate glass windows in the rear make
the car more convenient and safe to
drive with the top up.
"A comfortable. roomy drivers com.
partment, with every control and instru-
ment in convenient reach and sight OF

to give comfortable room for three
