real feeling in the matter TO 90 on
record for all time:-
If It lUas neUer proven before, ue
firmly believe the last three years
have demonstrated, beyone the
possibility of doubt, that, regard
less Of price, the Cadillac is the
best car in the uorld.
Day after day, throughout these
three years fierce competition
with the worlds best IN the worlds
var travelling side by side with
the very flower Of French, English,
Italian, and American manufacture
here at home, month after month
in tens of thousands Of hands
the Cadillac has proven that money
cannot build Or buy q better Car.
We who build the Cadillac have
never wavered for moment in this
conviction.
We share it now, with our friends,
because we are sure that they, too,
will derive from this unparalleled
European tribute, at least little of
the deep satisfaction which It brings
to US.
It will be our pleasure 70 quote
further from European comments
on the Cadillac in subsequent an
nouncements, and to give you some
of the reasons for the faith that is
In US.

ing the former servicemen a treat.
All invited
The plans which the American Lee
gion had advanced for the day were
brought before the Chamber of
Commerce by Herbert M. Israel,
who asked that all Lee county veter-
ans be invited to the city on Novem-
Der IL. The Lee county men will be
entertained at street and hall dances
and large banquet in the several
fraternal halls of the city, under the
plan laid before the Chamber of Com
merce. A street parade in which
every world war veteran will partici-
pate, is also secluded, and every, ex-
soldier will be asked to don his uni
form and march along.

This remarkable tribute from
nation which never lightly bestows
approval, but in spirit of sports
n1anship always admits and admires
superior achievement, releases us,
we feel, from reticence which has
always governed our references to
the Cadillac.
The truth of the matter is that we
have never expressed to the Ameri-
can people our own deep and inner
most convictions concerning the
Cadillac.
We have refrained, from sense Of
decent restraint, and because we
have always felt that the Cadillac
was its own most eloquent exponent.
But we feel, now, that we owe it to
more than a hundred thousand
American owners of the present
type Of Cadillac, to share this tribute
set down, once and for all, an honest
belief concerning it, which we are
certain they share with us.
Heretofore, we may have seemed to
consent, by our silence, at least, to
tie suggestion that car equaling
the Cadillac might possibly be
bought at considerably higher
price.
Resting on the generous admission
of our English friends, we want our

The Possible Result,

Wise old heads of the league
have ventured to predict there will
be q revival Of the old Central as
ISOLATION next winter and that Ev-
ansville, Terre Haute and Cedar
Rapids might be cut from the
Three Eye league to remedy pres
ent conditions. The loss Of Evans
Vile would be the most severe loss
to the Three-Eye, and possibly 1t
could be arranged for the Evas to
remain in the league next year un-
der the splendid management OF Al
Bashang.
Something must be done to elm
mate jumps like that Of the Is
| landers last Thursday morning. A
minor league team that could take
trip like that and win a ball
game on the same afternoon should
be handed the pennant without q
struggle.

FIELDING.
LOOKING 'EM OVER.

Looking over the Rox at Kish-
waukee park on Wednesday con-
WINGED me that the success of the
team in keeping hold on third
place has been the sensational
fielding of Manager Harry Brant,
the heavy hitting of Brant, Rigsby,
Pearce and Hauk, and the Iron
man" pitching of Ollie Voigt, the 49,
year-old phenom.
The club is batting .249 against
.242 by its opponents. proving re-
sourcefulness when hits mean runs,
The Rox and their opponents are
only one point apart in fielding, al
though neither the batting nor
fielding averages indicate the true
merits Of the games played.
! The Rox have played in good
luck all season, getting the best of
the breaks against second division
I clubs. On paper, the Islanders
have outplayed them almost to /
against the first division clubs. The
Islanders have wrought their
greatest havoc against the league
leaders--one. two, three and four.
1t will be recalled that most of their
reserves were against the cellar
| tenants.
Rockford, however, has corking
good ball club. It's poor policy to
say they have been lucky, and let
it 60 at that. A ball club is ell
titled to whatever it can get, with
or without the breaks.

St. Paul. "a; Louisville, 5.
Toledo. IA: Kansas City, 6.

The so-called barrel game Is no
respecter of persons. The Island
ers got their plenty here Wednes-
day. the score being 14-2. But look
at what st. Paul did to Louisville:
and the Soaring Saints rang up II
runs in the first inning, and all ~
in the first four.
When a team goes to pieces like
the islanders did Wednesday, and
the Louisville Colonies yesterday,
only a ball and chain will hold
them. Those who have seen dam
burst or a food on a rampage will
realize how helpless ball club Is
to stop an avalanche of runs.
