Gallant War Services.
During the recent war, notwith-
standing the use Of telephones, wire
less and all the methods of communl-
cation which modern genius has In
vented, pigeons played an invaluable
and gallant part.
In the United States there is prob
ably not a city which cannot boast OF
racing-pigeon fanciers, while clubs and
associations for the advancement and
enjoyment of the facinating sport OF
racing the birds are being constantly
formed in Eastern, Western, and to
some extent in Southern cities. Lofts
Of homing pigeons are maintained by
the United States Department Of Agri-
culture at the government poultry
farm at Beltsville. Nd. and the de-
partment holds a membership In the
Washington Racing Pigeon club. a
branch OF the American Racing Pigeon
union. Many Of the Washington club
races flown during the past summer
and fall have been won by Department
of Agriculture birds, which number
about $50.
Just what faculty enables the HON
ing pigeon to return to Its loft many
miles away Is a point Of dispute
among eminent homing-pigeon breed
ers. Some attribute II to remarkable
instinct. Others maintain that this
bird has sight so brilliant and power
full that II Is able to see much farther
than any other species, while there are
some who claim that II Is the ex

STEADY INCREASE
OVER LAST YEAR

An Akron, Ohio, dispatch of re-

industry had swung back toward

dent of the Goodyear Tire and
Rubber company, stated this week
that Notwithstanding the fact that

period in the companys history,
there had been more tires sold dur

CUT DEEP INTO
AUTO PRICES IS
PACKARD PLAN

Adoption Of the packard Plan
by manufacturers Of this section, as
a means of relieving the winter
employment situation was advocat-
ed today following the application
of the idea in one of Detroits larg-
est automobile factories. Mr.. Sauer,
head of the Roland Sauer and COM
pany, has received from President
Macauley, of the Packard company,
a brief outline Of the movement.
THE soundness of the packard
Plan" commends it to every man
ufacturing employer" says Mr..
Sauer. 1t is just this: Cut deep
into the price of the most popular
product in your line. Thereby you
will enlarge existing markets. The
public demand for your goods will
create a proportionate increase of
employment for the workers.
Buying is stimulated, and the
effects of the movement benefit
every line Of business, every house
hold and every individual in the
community.
president Macauley was moved
to this action by the desire of him.
self and other Packard executives
to give employment to the largest
possible number of workmen dur
ing months that, even in ordinary
years, reflects a seasonal slowing
up operations. He selected one of
the Packard products, the one of
widest appeal, and lowered the
price on it to a point permitting of
the operation of this succession of
influences.
"Such a plan needs only the con-
sideration of every manufacturer
in this district to insure its success.
In every factory where several
products are manufa ctured, one of
these units can be reduced in price
land so made attractive to the pub
lie demand, thereby keeping the
wheels of industry turning and
majority of the workers provided
with jobs.
Zone of the most valuable fea-
ures of Mr.. Macauley's suggestion
is that no elaborate machinery Is
needed to work this plan. No ma
tional. state or municipal organiza-
tons are required. 1t can be in
stituted by any manufacturer. The
welfare of the community certain
" warrants it's consideration.
MANY foresighted business men
and economists believe that the
general acceptance of the packard
Plan" will do more than any meas
ure so far brought forth to combat
successfully the widespread unem-
ployment in prospect this winter. :

THE WILLARD COMPANY
TESTING BATTERIES
WITH HYDR0METER

"How can that little glass
do-flitter" tell whether q battery
is fully charged or not?" obviously
queries some fair lady motorist
during the days work at the aver
age battery service station. And
many a man would like to know
more about the same subject, but
he does not like to confess his ig-
norance-his curiosity is not quite
so keen.
The explanation is simple, in
deed, and very reasonable when
one gives 1t sufficient considera-
ton. 1t happens that the sulphuric
acid used in a battery solution is
heavier than water alone, and the
hydrometer used for battery test
ing merely indicates the relative
weight of the solution when COM
pared with the weight of pure wa
ter.
When a battery is fully charged,
a great amount of the acid in the
battery solution has combined with
the lead compounds in the plates.
Naturally the solution is weak in

BIG REDUCTION MADE
In ESSEX MODELS

"Keen interest is awakened in
the new prices just announced by
Essex Motors" says Mr.. Lauder
baugh. (which mark an extreme
reduction Of 5000 on open models
since September, 1920, and Of $3.50
since last June.
1.-The new prices the company
makes known, reflect advantages
taken of the present and of antici-
pated market conditions for next
year. On open models the present
price is $3.50 lower than the Essex
has ever sold for. Total reduc-
tions of as much as sos occur on
some closed models.
"Of added interest to the buyer
Is that these new lower prices APP
ply to a new and improved Essex.
The new car contains all of the
advantages of its forerunner. In
many ways it has been enhanced
in qualities that count for smooth
err operation, greater reliability
and freedom from service atten-
ton.
1.-THE original appeal Of the Es-
sex was to those who wanted large
car performance and reliability
with small car operating economy
at a moderate cost. In that direc-
ton it pioneered a new field and
gained great popularity. More than

that that the company regards with
