Service is the vital element of husi- ness that is conducted on a sound basis, says Charles B. Voorhs, vice president and general sales manager of the Nash Motors Company. Nothing else, in fact' matters quite so much in any business tEat is conducted with view to perma- rency.

During the winter they toured Florida, motoring down to Miami and then over to Tampa Now they are on their way back to Seattle and are stopping for awhile in Birmingham, because they happened to be going this way, liked the looks of the town and thought they'd stay awhile and get better acquainted.

They , will take the train at 80 o'clock. The Birmingham Automobile Club has sent out invitations to all of it's members to make the trip to Birmingport and take as many friends with them as they pos sibly can get into their machines.
 An effort is being made to declare a half holiday on Thursday so that every one interested in Birmingport and it's relative benefit to the city of Birming- ham might make the trip down there and see for themselves just what it means to this city. The city commission is behind the project and Governor Kilby has issued proclamation giving 1t his indorsement.

How'd you like to rig up motor car as the one pictured above and start out with no certain destination in view and no certain time set to reach it? Isn't it the ideal way to travel?

essential thing is to find a level spot so that the automobile will not stand on an incline. The rear door is opened two box spring couches let down. two hair mattresses drop into place, an extension is pulled out on each side, curtain dropped in the rear, and the apartment is ready for rne night. It works much after the fashion of Pullman berth, but is much larger and more roomy.
 Under the box couches are various compartments for the household goods, such as knives, forks dishes, foodstuffs and toilet articles. Two evtra tires can be carried in the center under the berths along with camp stools, a table and a tent. The tent is carried for the purpose of being pitched behind the car at night when the Schumachers have company. Thusly, with but slight difficu;.y guests can be taken care of for the
 night in handsome fashion.

to the United States children's bu-

The funds are administered by the

with local authorities. The latter
contribute sum equal to that grant
ed by the government. In comment
ing upon this work, DIR. Adison, Brit
ish minister of health, says:
"The development Of the services
throughout the country in nursing,
midwifery and other facilities, and
the combination OF the whole big eff
fort, has been able to reduce the in
fant mortality in 20 years from Isl
to 78 If we had had that figure
of rs during the last 10 years, it
would have meant the saving of
250,00O lives in that period"
