NATIONAL PHAETON
ATTRACTS ATTENTION

Snartness. speed and comfort for four
characterize the National Newport q
phaeton. 1t is essentially a custom built
Job.
The finish is special throughout The
color combination of lustrous ivory jet
black, with brilliant vermillion under
gear, Is distinctive without being gar
fish. Rich Spanish hand buffed leather
Is used for the upholstery. A special
khaki top with natural wood bows and
nickel sockets gives this model an un-
usually attractive appearance. The
standard National 22 chassis is used,
which should underwrite the mechanical
performance to the most critical buy
ers.
The advanced and original method Of
body mounting introduced by the Ma
tional three years ago is used in the
phaeton. National 32 bodies. instead OF
being set on top of the chassis frame, as
is common practice. are suspended on
brackets set several inches below the
chassis frames upper edge. AS re-
suit the car has the low, road hugging
appearance Of the best European models,
yet this lowness has been achieved with
out sacrifice Of road clearance.

VIEW UNRESTRICTED
nv CLOSED MARMONS

The Marmon booth at the Automobile
Show has had repeated requests from
visitors, who have been instantly i'm
pressed by the windshield design Of the
closed cars for permission to put this inn
preston to a test by sitting In the
drivers seat
In every case their first impressions
have been more than emphasized They
have been struck by the absence of the
usual annoying and heavy supporting
pillars. The slant of the Windshield and
the permanent side windows assure q
perfect view. This feeling OF an un-
limited vision is strengthened by the
wide doors and windows, which mean
that the driver may look to all sides as
well as to the front without the slightest
restriction OF vision
There are added conveniences for the
driver, such as the sun shade and the
automatic windshield cleaner and the
microscope. While none are OF para
mount Importance in themselves, they,
In combination with the design OF the
windshield, serve to care for the driver
in the new Marmon closed cars In a
most unusual manner.

MANY CHANGES IN
AUTOS AT SHOW
Not SO Startling as in Early
Days, but Important
Nevertheless.

slthough the automobile mas come TO
% more or less OF standard affair in
stead of a mechanical wonder which
changed marvelously every season, the
present automobile show at the Grand
central Palace Is not by any means a
cut and dried exhibition of unchanged
ears.
The changes which may be seen. OF
course, are not so great as those which
marked the first years OF the motor car,
but they are notifications and improve
inents of real moment nevertheless.
This year the automobile has not only
changed physically but it has changed
decidedly In price during the last year.
Tor almost all manufacturers have
worked hard since the last show to cut
down the costs, while keeping up the
standard of their cars. This movement
for economical production has been ac-
rompanied by a movement for econom-
cal operation. and as result many of
the models shown have special devices
for securing the last bit of mileage and
power in the gasoline and others have
been improved in the matter of car
buretor design.
For those not interested in the sew
enty-nine makes of cars previously ex
hibited at the show there are no less
than thirteen new machines, including
the Rickenbacker, produced by COM
pahy in which the ace of aces is an inn
portant member. and the Bournonville. a
rotary valve motored affair which has
been subjected to some hard tests and
came through triumphantly despite it's
radical departure from the Knight and
tappet valve types OF engines.

HANSON LIGHT SIX
MAKES COW AT SHOW

The Hanson Six. which is manufac-
tured at Atlanta, Ca. and is best known
throughout the territory below the
Mason and Dixon line, Is henceforth to
be as we'll known throughout the re-
mainder of the United States.
Z. Il. Parraclx, factory representative
of the Hanson Motor Company. an
nounced yesterday rhat the w. Fl. Ash
Automobile Company or 200 Central
Park South has taken over the distribu-
ton of the Hanson car in the metropoli-
tan territory. A full line of the cars is
20 be seen at the show room.
The merits OF the Hanson Six are per-
haps too generally known to require
description, but the latest model of the
company. little brother of the big,
powerful car, called the Hanson Light
Six. is now making its bow in the motor
world. This car. despite the fact that
it is made in the same careful fashion
and OF the same fine materials as the
larger car. Is priced at s995. In this
machine beauty, power and silence have
been combined with economy. The Light
Six appears at the automobile show for
the first time this year.

MAXWELL-CHALMERS TO
HAVE OWN QUIET SHOW

Harry J. De Bear. president and gem
eral manager of the metropolitan Max
well-Chalmers branch, has originated 4
new plan OF automobile retailing service
for the thousands OF men and women
who visit the big exposition in the
Grand Central Palace.
This is the closer study exposition
carried out in the Observation-Disclosures
salesrooms at Broadway and Fifty-ninth
street and The Bronx branch at 10th
street and the Grand Concourse.
In the quieter atmosphere OF the
branch salesrooms the intending buyer
who finds his interest whetted at the
Palace displays but his quest for full
information unanswered because of the
crowds has ample opportunity for mi
mute scrutiny Of any model his interest
centers In. Men in attendance are pre-
pared to give any asked for informa-
ton however technical it may be.

VAUXHALL SHOWN FOR

tablshed a branch of the works at 1sS
King street West, Toronto, exhibit three
models OF their car at the show Al
though this is the first occasion upon
which this car has been exhibited in the
United States its performance is al
ready familiar 10 many members of the
a. u. f., since the greater proportion OF
ears employed on staff work with British
units were supplied by this firm.
The lessons learned from the rough
usage to which these wv. -. models
were subjected during the four years of
war are incorporated in the present
chassis, which, while it has the rugged
construction necessary to Withstand the
toughest kind OF road conditions, is fin

the trend OF European design in the
production OF cars combining speed, fin

The motor is a four cylinder Mono block,

Chemists and scientists claim that
storage battery plates can not be made
from one composition and automatically
become positive and negative under
charge, but Thomas Lavier. Jr.. has dis
covered that it can be done. To prove
1t, his company, the Ray Battery Conn
pany Of Ypsilanti, Mich, are producing
daily thousands of batteries containing
the Lavier formula plates.
Added TO this revolutionary manufac-
turing method is the fact that the plates
produced are OF high porosity and yet
are so hard and stonelike that they
will not wash down or disintegrate.
This is the reason that the Ray Bat
terry Company can safely guarantee
every battery they produce. uncondition-
ally, for a two year period.

jnand and In accordance with the
times
Mr.. Trask claims that simplicity in
design and ease Of operation and con-
troll characterize the car. Practically all
operations are automatic. Lack Of VIZ
bration IS another outstanding feature
that will mark the popularity Of the new
car officials claim.

A SWITCH IMPROVEMENT.

Modern engineering development and
pronounced reduction in manufacturing
costs now make it possible for the owner
Of the medium priced car TO have at COM
mand various advanced features in de-
sign heretofore available only in the
high priced cars. One of the novel i'm
provements attracting the attention OF
women visitors at the show, is the posi-

Exceedingly interesting was the an
nouncement from London last week OF
the engagement and marriage of Miss
Natalie Magruder daughter Of Mr.. John
Holmes Magruder of Washington, to
Capt. Guy Campbell Of London. grand
son of Sir Guy Campbell and Lady
Campbell, in London. Lady Campbell
is the daughter of the Irish patriot,
Lord Edward Fitzgerald. and grand
daughter of the Duke of Leinster. Capt.
Campbell is also a cousin of Viscountess
Gray of Falloden. AS ancient as is the
family Of the bridegroom. it is not more
ancient than that of the bride. 1t Is
said that the Magruders are Mac
Ciregors and that Alexander MacGregor,
who shook the dust of the Highlands
from his feet and located in Calvert
county, Md, in 1862. discarded the name
Of MacGregor and took over another
version of it. Magruder. 1t is historic
fact that the British parliament sup
pressed the great name of the Mac
Gregor clan, so that the American set
tier was prompted by motives Of pru-
dence as well as by enmity to other
members who had deserted the cause
of the Stuarts. From Calvert county.
Md. the Magruders moved to George
town and it's members have figured
honorably in it's history ever since:
William B. Magruder was appointed
postmaster of Georgetown in 1776 and
held the post and that of mayor all
during the revolutionary war. Presi-
dent Washington signed his commission
as permanent postmaster in 1890. Alex
ander c. Magruder. the son of William
B. Magruder. was admitted to the bar
of the District of Columbia in 1901 and
was among the first thus honored.
= The bride was born in Washington
and has spent her life here. living
abroad a good deal in these latter years.
The Countess Garcia Frederique
Festetics de Tolna. who has arrived in
winter at Hotel Vanderbilt. with occa-
sional visits to Washington. is the
Youngest of the three daughters of
Prince Festetics de Tolna and his wife,
who was Lady Mary Hamilton. the di-
vorced wife of the late Prince of Mo-
naco. Countess Garcia is a prominent
type of the bachelor maid of European
sefn-royalty and for several years has
maintained an extensive establishment
in Paris and belongs to an advanced
philosophical cult and to many Bo-
hemian clubs. Her eldest sister, Count
ess Alexandra Olga. was recently mar
ried to Prince Erwin Francois, the
brother of that Prince Alfred Constan-
tin Hohenlohe e-Schilingfurst whose
wife was Miss Catherine Britton of this
city. Countess Garcia is attracted to
New York for intellectual reasons. but
she will take little dip into the So
ciety of Gotham and Of all the larger
cities on the Atlantic seaboard. Her
visit to Washington will call forth
amenities from almost every European
embassy and legation, as she is promi-
nently identified with the British nobil-
ity through her uncle. the Duke Of
Hamilton. and to all the great families

permit foreign travel and even a matri-
monial alliance with non believers. The
maharajah belongs to the Sesodia regime
and has enlightened views. especially
in regard to agriculture. His present
visit is principally to see the newest
models of implements in actual use and
his New York guides are taking him
