AUTOMOBILES MUST BE BUILT
WITH HIGH PURPOSES

Two things determine the true
value Of a motor carr, says Burton
Troxell, sales manager of the Cap
ital Motors Corporation, local deal
ers in Chevrolet passenger and COM
mercial cars.
"One is the purpose for which it
is designed The other is the manner
n which it is built to fit that purpose.
Power, speed, comfort, appear
1nce and equipment are needs which
automobiles generally are designed
to meet. Their value is judged on
points.
IAN automobile must have all the
essential qualities that fulfill these
requirements. But its object must
be greater than any of them. 1t
should be based on the need for the
automobile as utility for the many.
There is only one way to fill this
need. That is, to afford economical
transportation for the great majority,
This is the dominant purpose be-
hind the medium weight car. All
the intrinsic qualities of these cars
of today are the result of it. The
policy of future constructions is based
upon it.
This purpose controls the design
and every operation that enter into
their manufacture. To insure its
fulfillment two fundamental princi-
pies are adhered EQUALITY and
quantity.
Economy in the long run is based
upon quality at the outset. II the
lgreat majority are to enjoy it, guam
tity is necessary. Tho manner in
which the two are combined in the
medium weight car proves, in re-
markable way, that one insures the
other"

AmeliCaniZatiOn Work.

The American Legion is being

sensible plan along the line of Ameri
canization that has yet been advanced
In Olympia a most active Ameri-
canization committee is at work
under the leadership of Mrs. r.
White, and at the last meeting of
this post of the American Legion if
was voted to lend all assistance Dos
sible to the above committee.
The plan under consideration is
that of coming into direct friendly
contact with all those who are seek
ing admission to citizenship and Civ
ing them the benefit of our knowledge
of the plan of our government both
before and after admission. The
Legion has taken upon itself the task
of becoming acquainted with all ap-
plicants who will take the next ex-
amdna nou for admission and will
endeavor to arrange series of meet
ings at which these applicants can
appear and bone" for the exam
nation. 1t is anticipated that the
meetings will prove of mutual inter-
est to both the instructed and the
instructors. However, if it is pos
sible to clear up some point which
