CLOSED CAR DEMAND HIGH
Mounting Percentage of Closed Car
Production Reported by the
Makers.

Production schedules prepared by
the motor car manufacturers for
the coming year, reflect accurately
the constantly increasing desire. oil
Me public for closed car comfort.
The strength of the closed car de-
mand is illustrated by the fact that
Dodge Brothers, Detroit manufac-
tlirsrs, are planning to devote ap;
proximately IS per cent of their
large production for the latter halt
of 1922 to construction of closed
cars. The Importance of this figure
is emphasized by comparison with
last years closed car percentage,
which was approximately 10 per
cent.
The production schedule shows
that the closed car.of today is dis
tinet1y not luxury car. 1t is in
great demand because it, will stand
up under hard driving and pound
ing on bad roads just as sturdily as
the open car-and at the same time
offer closed car protection and COM
fort.
The steel body construction which
Dodge Brothers recently introduced
in their Business Coupe and Bust
ness Sedan provides strength and
resistance to strain which is posi-
BILE 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
prices of Dodge Brothers all-steei
closed cars, for example, now ex-
coed the prices of the open cars by
narrow margins of 800 to 5000.
In the northern and eastern
states, where from 5 to- Z months
of the year are too cold for comfort.
able driving in an open car, the
popularity of the closed car is grow
ing by leaps and bounds. Even in
the south the buying public appre-
ciates the instant protection against
rain or inclement weather which
this type affords.
The rapidly mounting percentage
of closed car production shows how
well the motor car public is taking
to this type of car.

Song Be- ple say that politeness
costs nothing. But is that entire
" true?
1t is possible that a chronic
crouch may at times assume a
certain degree of courtesy, but it
is invariably at the cost of a ire.
mendous effort.
His natural inclination is to
growl, and grunlble, and snarl,
and such people invariably follow
the bent of their inclinations. To
suddenly assume an attitude of
politeness is foreign to his nature.
1t requires an effort, and no eff.
fort is without its cost.
But the greater the cost the
more precious the jewel.
Give he polite crouch the
credit that's his due.
