MOTO.METER WIDELY USED.
Now Standard Equipment on 1875
Makes of Cars.

Ono OF the most remarkable stories of
growth and development in the Access
sorry business is that OF the Motto Meter
Company Of Long Island City. y. y.
Three years aeo the motometer was
standard equipment on only FIVE cars.
To-day it il used as standard equipment
by l25 manufacturers. No other COM
pany or accessory can boast of n record
Ike that, not even the speedometer.
The motometer was invented by IIar-
rison II. Royce. now general manager
of the Moto-Meter Company. as an in
strument to indicate the temperature OF
the motor and to call the attention OF
the driver to any sudden changes. The
instrument was so obviously disable and
at the Same time 80 simple II would
not get out OF order that II was ac-
cepted by automobile engineers as neces-
sary. Not only did II act az q safe
guard against damaging engine defects
but It was designed and made UP 30
realty that II added a touch OF beauty TO
the lines OF the car.
The motometer will be found IN use
to-day on more than a million cars The
sales according to a statement OF off,
cloLs OF the company. are now proceed
ing at the rate of 5000 day. There Is
a model made for every type OF motor

far as cars Of the better class arc con-
cerned.
Visitors at the Automobile Chow will
discover at once that Disteel wheels are
a wide departure from the usual types
of motor car wheels and have an Inn
portant bearing on both the appearance
and the utility OF the car. They are
spokeless steel discs with self contained
rims and replace entirely the wood and
wire spoked wheels. What this means
in revolutionary effect on the distinctive
appearance of the car can only be ap-
preciated when one sees car OF the
better class equipped with D!steel wheels
While this Is a radical departure for
America. in Europe the acceptance Of
spokeless wheels is virtually universal,
automobile authorities report.
THE extraordinary favor with which
the Disteel wheel has been received, al
though 1t was unknown "a year ago Is
due to certain we'll defined features out

nance the beauty and individual distinc-
ton of the car" says Howard A. Coffin,

there are no squeaks. and tho wheels are

zone of tho worst features of those
chaotic days surrounding the birth of the
automobile was the tendency of builders
to completely change their models every
year" said Harry $. Houpt. This
policy caused great loss To owners
who fcsJud themselves possessed each
season of out of date cars unless they
purchased new ones, while the resale
value of their old cars declined almost
to the vanishing point.
zone of the nsest potent factors In
changing this condition was the policy
OF Standardization adopted by the Hud-
son Company years ago. A Hudson car
five years old Is still modern and up to
date In appearance and compares favor
ably with cars produced to-day in per-
formapce. Since the introduction OF the
super six three years ago only refine
ments in design have been made. as the
accomplishments of the car in the hands
of more than 10000 owners left nothing
to he desired.
"As one result OF this policy useu
Hudson cars command the highest
prices and are always in great demand.

prestige of the Hudson Company Is a

CADILLAC GENIUS
SEEN IN WAR WORK
Eight Cylinder Engine Proved
Astonishing in Artillery
Tractor Work.

Tie adaptation of the "club method"
M that 1t could be practically used for
celebrating or measuring the power OF
Liberty motors was a product of Cadll-
lac genius, and IL proved to be indis-
nensable in accurately determining the
horsepower 1t takes precedence over
the old torque stand and the electric
dvnamometer which were the only pre-
yious methods. the latter being very ex-
pensive to usa.
The problem Of keeping tho cylinders
cool when welding on the shoulders was
vnlouely solved by L. w. Kaufman of
the Cadillac Company, and was ex-
trenely valuable in speeding UP the Lib
ertv engine production at the time when
,here was crying need for them.
Early In January, 1915, Howard L.
Coffin, then head OF the Aircraft Board.
Amounted committee consisting of
three eminent engineers to act in an
advisory capacity in regard to the i'm
provenents to be made in future series
OF motor production, instructing them to
make tests for the Liberty engine and
recommendations for changes which they
considered necessary to overcome exist
,rc defects. d. Mccall White, vice.
president Of the Cadillac Motor Car Com
many. was named by Mr. Coffin to serve
on this committee.

tor Of tho track laying" type was de-
signed for Government use To negotiate

Rather than experiment with a new
engine, il was found that the standard
Cadillac eight cylinder type engine,
with some slight changes. was not only
capable Of doing the work, but that 1t
further demonstrated the most remarks
able ability In several astonishing tests.
In ora Of the tests the tractor was tied
fast and under the power OF the engine
the caterpillar tracks were made to slip
on a rough concrete base. The Cadillac
company was turning out large quanu-
ties Of engines for this tractor before
the armistice was signed.
The Cadillac company was chosen by
the Government for the delicate task of
designing and manufacturing the various
gauges for the Government inspection or
Class B military trucks. known as Lib
.rtv trucks Special accuracy was re-
CURED in these gauges. The Govern
ment paid n high tribute to Cadillac en-
cheering genius and the craftsmanship
in leaving the limits Of measurement
entirely to the judgment of Cadillac en-
Rineers and designers. More than 1900
% these gauges were made as soon as
they had demonstrated their merit after
passing a most critical inspection by the
Government Bureau of Standards.

T0DAY's AID TO BEAUTY

Hair is by far the most conspic-
uous thing about us and is proba-
bly, the most easily damaged by
bad or careless treatment. If we
are very careful in hair washing,
we will have virtually no hair
troubles. An especially fine sham
poo for this weather. one that
brings out all the natural beauty
of the hair; that dissolves and en-
tirely removes all dandruff, excess
oil and dirt; can easily be used at
trifling expense by simply dissolv-
ing a teaspoonful of canthrox
(Which you can get at any drug
gist's) in a cup of hot water. This
makes a full cup of shampoo
liquid-enough so it is easy to
apply it to all the hair instead of
just the top of the head. This
chemically dissolves all impurities
and creates a soothing, cooling lath-
err. Rinsing leaves the scalp spotless-
ly clean, soft and plant, while the
hair takes on the glossy richness of
natural color, also fluffiness which
makes it seem much heavier than it
is. After a canthrox shampoo, ar
the hair is pleasure.-Adv.

BY ADELAIDE KENNERLY,

Women, it is time we wake ur
and shake from our slouchy minds
the cobwebs of indifference which
have kept out the light of day!
The time was when it was con,
sidered cute for women TO be
ignorant. but the world now has
grown too serious-evolution has
caught us in her dragnet and is car
rying us on at rapid rate-meas-
ured by deeds and events, not by
hours and generations.
What mother, without shame, can
say she knows nothing about the
league of nations, when that league,
or that international council of a
half dozen men, may some time
have the right to hurl the sons OF
American women into wars in
which they have no interest? What
mother should not hunger for
knowledge on subjects which effect
her home and her childreno
Politics should no longer be per-
sonal fights between men. but the
business of the people, all the peo-
pie. men and women, because the
government of the United States
has to do with our homes, our FAM
lilies and the freedom Of every one
of us.
Now that women are voters
have the right to express their opin-
ions legally and with dignity, is it
not stain upon them to be ig-
norant of laws and lawmakers? Is
it not sin against children when
we women sit back and, for some
reason or other. do not go to the
poles? 1t takes no more energy
than it does to 60 to the picture
show or the market. We are in the
very same company, no more de-
grading and no more uplifting, at
the poles than at these other places.
But to go there ignorantly is dam
gerous.
Women found time to knit and
sew and roll bandages and drive
motor trucks and do all sorts of
work in addition to their home du-
ties during the war. Why? Be-
cause their sons, and the sons OF
other American mothers were fight
ing and dying on the battlehelds of
Europe.
But now that the war is over we
must look to another side of child
life. Another generation is growing
up and the laws under which they
live should be the very best that
can be made by Americans for
Americans.
If the people are to have voice
in the matter of law-making, that
means both men and women, for
they are both people. And if wom-
en- have the right to vote. they GER
tainly should vote for or against
what they deem to be better and
worse government.

1t Is Time We Women Shake From Our Souchy

before some 1000 persons Friday
night at the Auditorium:
II am one OF those who, If ! had
my way. would bring the power to
declare war closer to the people in
stead of taking it farther away.
IF | had my way | would write
! it into the constitution Of the United
States that no war excepting a war
of actual defense should ever be be-
gun without a referendum of the
American people. And yet they
have removed farther and farther
from thosc-who must pay the taxes
and fight and suffer and die, this
control of war.
"Our boys haven't any more
business in Russia tonight than
they have in Great Britain or
France.
They are there tonight in vio-
lationof the constitution OF the
United States, they are there with
out any vote of the only power to
declare war, the congress of the
United States. They are the VIC
Tins of the iinperialistic design of
Japan and they went there by unan-
imous vote.
The league of nations creates a
council composed of five or nine
men. You people can neither select,
elect or recall them. You haven't
any more power over those five or
nine men who will have the power
over the life and death of our peo-
pie should war come than you have
over your ambassador or your con-
suls in these nations.
Is there mother or wife or a
sister. or a woman for that matter,
who does not want the law making
brought nearer to the people who
must abide by them, rather than to
have it removed from them?
More and more sentiment grows
toward referendum votes on great
issues. If such issues are brought
to Referendum vote then every
woman who is able to walk or ride
to the poles, should express her
opinion of these issues by placing
her ballot in the box.
But first, last and always, she
should have more education. She
should be more thoroughly inform
ed as to what is going on in the
world. The fence around her mind
should not be the fence around her
yard. No matter how she enjoys
such limited knowledge she cannot
be thing apart from the whole any
more thar drop of water can be a
separate and distinct part of the
ocean.
Women, whether you are repub-
lican or democrat, whether you are
for the league of nations or against
it, whether you believed that women
should have suffrage or not, begin
today to prepare yourself for an in
telligent opinion when the big is
sues are brought forth and aired.
