The next morning, Thursday, the trip was resumed, the party arriving at Los Angeles at F o'clock noon, making drumming time of 20 hours flat. There was no tune during the trip that the radiator even got hot, to say nothing of boiling. The car used absolutely no oil whatever. the oil float being in ex- actly the same position as at the start me gasoline used on the trip averaged ll1z miles to the gallon and consider ing the 100 miles of drifting sand en- countered west of Blythe, the per- formance is considered remarkable in the extreme. The driver also stated that no gear was used at any time eX- cept the high the S-cylinder motor belng so smooth and powerful It is a noteworthy fact also that there were no body squeaks and no rattles in the car when delivered at Los Angeles. It stands to reason" says MT Bab- bttt, that a light weight car will not stand the abuse that heavy one will, because weight means strength-and to take away weight it to take away strength. The Cadillac company is perfectly willing to make a car of lighter weight but so far has found that is impossible and still keep the car as strong and as safe and dura ble

COURTESY IMPORTANT

 Tn fact. believe we do not put enough emphasis upon the courtesy to which every motor car buyer is en- titled. both before and after he makes his selection. By courtesy I do net mean ordinary politeness but the at tention to details and extra effort which the dealer is duty bound to offer to the prospect at every stage of his selection of an automobile.
 Tt is not enough any more to give the buyer the usual selling talk and to demonstrate the car for him. Buy CTS want more. They want facts and figures about other cars service; they
 want special attention to their own problems, whether of business or pleas ure and these courtesies should be of fered by the dealer. Today practice fly

NOW THE "CANNED RADIO"

(James T. Moore in Golfers Weekly)
 If a voice could be stationed on ev- cry dangerous rock, on every sandbar or other periIous point, and if that voice could constantly shout the warn ing: This is. Rock Soand-So; keep off," or Here is a dangerous shoaF Cor current and if the voice could be heard miles off at sea. the mariner would he able not only to avoid it. but to learn his exact location. Now this precisely is what the United States naval communication service under took to do at one point at least on our eastern coast.
 An automatic device was established at Point Judith light, designed to cali out warnings by raidophone to ships navigatin in the vicinity when the light could not be seen on account Of fog, mist. rain or snow The appara- tus," says one account, repeats the words Point Judith Light every five seconds, and the warning can be heard fully eight miles away. After every third utterance it sends the words: You are getting closer; keep off This last warning is audible only to vessels that have come within a range of two miles, and for these it is the red flag warning them of impending danger. While this device is still undergoing tests, its eventual value is assured
 This radiophone warning system is already recognized as a great gain to civilization, and the installation at Point Judith promises to be the fore runner of a new worldwide under taking for saving life and property. It is the beginning of the automatic radio, of the canned rNdio.' as the humor- ists will probably characterize it. There is no reason why it should not be used also to prevent collisions at sea. The vessel enshrouded in fog might start her automatic radiophone singing out her name in signals which to a ship listening in would indicate the distance and location. The United States naval communication service may thus have found in simple way the solution of problem which has tried the ingenuity of men in many lands for generations, and other important prospective uses for the invention will readily spring to the imagination.
