CLOSED CAR
DEMAND HIGH
Mounting Percentage ofclosed
Car Production Reported
by Makers

Production schedules prepared by
the motor car manufacturers for the
coming year reflect accurately the
constantly increasing desire of the
public for closed car comfort.
The strength of the closed car de-
mand is illustrated by the fact that
Dodge Bros, Detroit manufacturers.
are planning to devote approximate
ly IS per cent of their large produce
ton for the latter half of 1922 to
construction of closed cars. The i'm
portance of this figure is emphasized
by comparison with last years closed
car percentage, which was approx
mately 8 per cent.
The production schedule shows that
the closed car of today Is distinctly
not luxury" car. 1t is in grea
demand because it will stand up un-
der hard driving and pounding on
bad roads just as sturdily as the
open car--and at the same time offer
closed car protection and comfort
The steel body construction which
Dodge Bros, recently introduced m
their business coupe and business
sedan provides strength and resist
ance to strain which is possible only
where the construction throughout is
of steel. And prices of closed cars
can by no means be thought of as
prohibitive, as they might have been
years ago. The price of Dodge Bros,
all-steel closed cars for example,
now exceed the prices of the open
cars by narrow margins of 500 to
$500
In the northern and eastern states,
where from five to seven months of
the year are too cold for comfort
able driving In nopen car, the
popularity of the closed car is grow
ing by leaps and bounds. Even in
the south. the buying public appreci-
ates the instant protection against
rain or Indictment weather which this
type affords.
The rapidly mounting percentage
of closed car production shows how
we'll the motor car public is taking
to this type of car.

SOME UNKNOWN ANIMAL

Marine City June 28.-Resi-
dents of this city are excited over
the presence of an unknown ami
NAL which skaters the stiffness
of the night with bull-like below
ings. 1t is making its hunting
grounds in the vicinity of the Les
ter farm, one-half mile north of
the Broadway avenue bridge. At
tempts to capture the creature
have failed.
The strange amphibian was
first noticed two nights ago.
When residents of the vicinity at
tempted to discover what sort of
beast it might be it plunged
heavily into Belle river and made
its escape. The creature is
thought to be a sea lion which
escaped from Belle Isle park in
the Detroit river.
Later-The sea lion is captured.
1t turns out to be frog, of some
size, and a "bull-like" voice.
