The nine new styles OF the 1920
Haynes character cars, which have
met with such a tremendous demand
throughout the country. are in a great
way responsible for the popularity
which these types of cars enjoy. Since
the appearance of the 1920 Haynes
sedan, coupe, and limousine the in
crease in the demand for closed cars
has been especially noticeable.
Whereas the sedan and coupe a few
years ago were used mostly for city
purposes, these types are now being
used by thousands OF motorists for
long distance tours.

.ETYMOLOGy OF
AUTOMOBILE NAMES

There are many styles and types
Of automobiles in use today, but prob
ably the FIVE best known and most
popular in the United States are the
coupe, the sedan, the Limousine, the
touring car, and the roadster. The
first three names are French in their
origin and the last two are English.
The word coupe" was applied orig
inally to a four-wheeled closed car
rage for two persons inside. with an
outside seat for the driver.
1t is derived from the French word
meaning ito cut and is so-called be
cause it gives the appearance Of
larger carriage cut in half. The word
was later taken over and applied to
the present enclosed car with one
seat in the rear, drivers seat and an
auxiliary seat
Sedan Oldest Term.
The word sedan" is probably one
of the oldest terms applied to a We
hicle for transportation. II was used
for the first time in France and takes
its origin from the French city OF
that name. This name takes on a pc
cular significance now when it is re-

closed chairs carried on poles by two

dan has an enclosed body and accom-
modates seven passengers. Because
of the single enclosed compartment
it is popularity known as the all sea

Limousine" was originally the
name OF cloak worn in France, and
probably originated from Limousin,
the name of an old province in cen
trail France. Today il is applied to

PHILADELPHIA, April 25.-Presi-
dent Wilson's attitude on the Fiume
situation has so aroused Italians in this
city that they probably will not hold
their Victory Liberty Loan parade
scheduled for May 4, according to
Frank Syracuse Falanga, grand master
of the Independent Sons of Italy.
Italians in Philadelphia subscribed
to $5,o0o,000 worth of bonds in the
fourth Liberty Loan. Leaders here fear
the attitude of the Italians toward
President Wilson, taken together with
the fact that many of those who sub
scribed to the war issues are planning
to return to their native land, will re
suit in cutting down their subscriptions
to the Victory Loan.

1he employment service in refusing to

On the other hand, the shipbuilding

men to any industry in which there
was a strike.

WASHINGTON, April 25.-Placating
W. c. Roberts, representing Samuel

Of Labor with "may' in place of a
SHALL, the employment service con-
ference found common ground day
and unanimously adopted the draft Of
an outline of a bin that contains its
ideas of what Congress should do to
assist In solving the problem of un-
employment.
MIR. Roberts maintained that the eff
fort to get into the organization an
advisory board to be appointed by the
President was an insidious attempt to
undermine the present control of the
service and an insult to Secretary Of
Labor Wilson. When the advisory
board feature was made permissive IN
stead of mandatory and he was as
sured that in any event Secretary Viii
son would undoubtedly name the di-
rector general Of the service as we'll as
the members OF the advisory board,
Mr.. Roberts decided to join the har-
monY camp.
Secretary Wilson himself appeared
before the conference and indorsed the
general scheme Of cooperative public
service that would be national, state

Theda Bara, however, stood up on a

The crowd could not resist that plea,
of course. The sight of the famous
"vamp," whom they were accustomed
to see always warm and gorgeous in
ermlne and limousines, standing there
in thin blue serge suit and even the
tip Of her nose blue with the cold was
too much for the chivalrous New

overcoats and sweaters and found all
