Of the country will cover both the
anu VI NAt
Dixie Highway between the Ohio

place Of dedication will be selected
by them.
Leading motor clubs along the
highway are showing their interest
in the opening Of the Dixie Highway
by starting preparations for their
participation in the dedication. Plans
of the Chicago Motor Club are prob
ably further advanced than any other
organization. The dedication has
been indorsed by the membership Of
the club, by the Chicago Boosters
Club and Mayor Thompson Of Chi
cago. Over 200 cars from the Chi
cago city have been pledged to make
the run to the point Of dedication.

IS MODERN
IN MAXWELL FACTORY

Perfection in materials and caro-
does not only apply to the high price
cars in this age Of efficiency To last
with every increasing competition and
TO create n reputation for reliability
and aaulity. the low and medium pric-
ed car must be able to stand the clos
est scrutiny.
The builders Of the Maxwell car
have recognized these principles and
each particle of the machines turned
out by them has to pass the most
rigorous examination and come up to
the highest standards.
The most modern machinery and
the most scientific methods of pro-
duction are used in the Maxwell fac
tories, Each important part of a
Maxwell is made right at the Max
well factory. which gives this concern
a decided advantage over those who
depend on outside companies to pro-
duce the vital parts of their car.
The rear axle is manufactured in
Il the Oakland avenue plant of the or
ganization. The ring gear. or drive
gear, probably the most important
part of the axle. takes thirty-one ope-
ratfons. not including the various in
spections, before it can qualify as
'l-1000 OF an inch fine.
The inspection of the gear is pep-
faps the most important part of the
work in the machine shop. Gauges
from Switzerland are used for this
purpose. The tool and Inspection de-
partments carefully set these instru-
ments to the desired point and then
seal them with wax so that no work
man can change or disturb them. If
the gears pass this inspection and
there is still any question about them
they are taken to the silent room"
! for the final inspection.
The silent room" is built of heavy
timber. heavy felt and paper lining,
so that all sound is excluded. The
gears are set on bevel gear test ma
chimes, meshed with a master pinion
and the power is applied A twenty
ton brake is attached so that the
greatest possible strain Is placed on
the gears during the test. II the
gears work silently and pass gear

Some of the furnaces are used to ear

COMFORT IDEA CARRIED
OUT IN HUPP BUILDING

Ever since the conception of the
Comfort car in 1909, the Hupmo-
bile has ranked well in the lead as
an easy-riding car. Its long springs
and evenly balanced chassis con-
struction take the Hupmobile over the
toughest kinds of roads with min
imum Of jolting.
"The Hupmobile comfort idea Is
also carried out in the interior of the
car. Every Hupmobile turned out OF
the factory Is designed to make mo-
toring a pleasure for the driver and
passengers of the car. And not only
Is this true of limousine and coupe
models, but it is equally the same with
roadsters and turing cars" according
to A. A. Frentzel of the Frentzel-
WALES Auto Co., distributors here for
the Hupmobile.
"Only in recent years has the auto
motive industry as a whole turned 70
making automobiles things of COM
fort as well as of safety and speed.
The Hupmobile factory has been years
ahead OF tho rest of the field in this
matter.
The idea of making a car a com
Portable thing to drive has been car
ried out in the Hupmobile to every
part Of its operating mechanism"

HAYNES NAN DECLARES
AUTOS ARE NECESSITY.

THE best way to judge the trend
of thought regarding automobiles, is
to study the buyers and users of the
motor cars says w. c. E. Pruitt,

pany, Haynes distributors here.
Every year I have felt that the
public could not possibly show any
greater interest in mortor cars. but
each succeeding year has seen thou
sands thronging to the shows eager
to inepect the different offerings.

yond the possibility OF question Is
that the automobile has now become
firmly entrenched as a necessity. To-

Brain SUCCESS
By GEORGE B. WATERS,

~. y. A. Stau Correspondent
Baltimore, Md.-Dr. Walter E.
Dandy, young surgeon of Johns
Hopkins hospital, has planted the
flag Of American achievement in the
center of the human brain!
The brain, center Of human &C
tivity and the most delicate and
sensitive organ of the body, has
presented science with the most
battling problems in the past. Or
binary brain operations have been
made simple but to reach the very
center OF the mass, the third ven
tricle, without killing the patient
was impossible until DR.. Dandy
after three years experiment on
lower animals-monkeys mostly
found the way.
What does it mean?
1t means that epileptics can be
cured and that many an insane man
can be brought back from the asy.
lum. It means that paralytics car
be given the use Of their bodies
These ills are often the cause Of
