MOTOR SCHOOL
OPENS SECOND
COURSE MONDAY
semmes Company Arranges
interesting Program to Start
New Service Class.

The semmes Motor Company has
arranged q very interesting pro-
gram Of events for Monday even
ing, the opening night OF the
second course of the Owners Serv-
Ice School for Dodge Brothers
cars.
The outstanding feature of the
evening will be a private showing
of the motion picture film ''Endur-
Ance," which shows the operation
OF a Dodge Brothers car In the
oil fields OF Texas and Louisiana.
Other features will include an
Institutional film showing, the con-
struction and operation of the
North East Electrical system on
the Dodge Brothers car. a short
address by Raphael Semmes, and
last, but not least, an explanation
and demonstration of the science
Of trouble shooting on the road.
This is by far the most important
mechanical knowlede that the car
owner can have, and j. b. Hav-
Hand, the director, makes 1t easily
understood.
The first course which terminates
the same evening has been run
ming for the past twelve weeks, and
ts termed q great success by both
the staff of the school and the
owners.
Both deserve a great measure OF
credit. as the instructors have served
cheerfully three nights a week with
out any compensation, which, added
TO the facilities possessed by the
Sernmes Motor Company, has enab-
led this course to be furnished the
students absolutely free of charge.
The student owners deserve an
equal measure of credit, as the at.
tendance has been very consistent
despite the sultry weather, and the
fact that the course covered the very
middle of vacation time.
An outstanding feature of the
school was the attendance of women
divers who made up fully a third
Of the student personnel.
Mr.. Haviland says that the present
intention is to have classes on Mon
day evening only during the second
session. However, II the number Of
applicants require 1t. he is prepared
to run classes on as many additional
evenings as are necessary.

and flexibility, durability. comfort
safety. convenience. ease and care
easy riding. beauty, style.
1T would be a safe plan II these
points were studied In the order
named.
Economy heads the list because
It is the important question Of the
times.
Power is the next important es.
sential TO be considered. You do not
want to be bound by any limitation
in this respect. You desire to be
able to go anywhere and at any
time, and for this reason you want
power in your automobile.
AN asset which we all seek In
buying a motor car Is durability.
When one considers the amount in
volved in the investment, this is very
important. This feature Of a car de-
pends upon the character Of its
maker: his honesty. his wholesome
ideals, his standards, his long expert
ence, and his successes in the auto
mobile, industry. His car is usually
as durable as his record.
Convenience and comforts must
not be passed by lightly. Purchase
a car which affords those little con
veniences which make motoring
really enjoyable and free from care
Follow these rules Of selection
and the car you eventually purchase
will be just a real good one for your
purposes"

These templates serve as convenient

We have all noticed on most cars

To overcome this I got a discarded
