The first and fourth quarters of the

quarters are the arms of the de la

The "meriettes'. are legless and

fo the martin. Appearing in threes,
they were in days of old considered
symbolic of the Trinity and had a holy
significance. The birds. black against
a gold background, denote wisdom,
riches and cleverness of mind.

There IL "a great shortage Of enclos-
cd cars during the ls2o season. ac-
cording to R. &. Durant, vice president
and sales manager OF the Chevrolet
Motor co. Of California, The reason
OF this predicted shortage is the great
increase In the demand OF enclosed
cars and the shortage of material, es-
pecially glass OF the proper quality
This shortage will continue, Durant
SAYS, until the glass manufacturing
plants OF Belgium are again in opera
ton.
Before the glass factories of Bel
gium were sacrificed to Germany's
war ambitions, approximately ninety
per cent Of the glass used in the manu-
facture OF enclosed American anto-
mobiles came from king Albert 5
realm.
There was a large stock on hand in
this country which was adequate To
supply the demands of the motor car
makers for a time. This supply was
augmented by a small amount of high
grade glass made in America, but soon
the demand for enclosed cars became
so great that with no glass coming
from Belgium. and only q small per-
centage Of the glass necessary being
made here. it Is impossible to supply
the manufa cturers.
Durant states that many companies
has intended to put out five per cent
of the entire years output in enctes-
ed types. hut this viii be impossible

tion OF enclosed cars by American

We have not surveyed the field to dis,

we have watched other makers with 'in>

influence us. We have started from a
logical beginning, planning car which
should bear the Peerless name proudly,
selecting the particular type of skilled

would produce it, letting these costs de.
termine the price. :
Those who appreciated such car and
could afford this price bought it-because
they knew it would be true to them.
This was the method which arrived at

SPRINGFIELD, Mass, Feb.
The entire police detective depalts

run down the slayer of Virginia Walk
er, II yearold, who was found dead
in shed a few hundred yards from.
her home shortly after midnight. The
child had been cl'iminally assaulted
and had been dead several hours. She
had been sent to the Creamery at 1880
p. M, to get cream and her failure
to return led to the institution of the
search which revealed the body.
An autopsy will be held to deter
mine the cause of death but the body
bore marks of stlangulation. Where
the body was found is but few yards
from the main building of the Som
ers Creamery Co. Employees of the
company questioned by the police to-
day said they heard no outcry A
possible clue is that of Mrs. Frank

cried for help and her brothers came
to her aid. The young man fled.
