CARE |S EXE ERC|SED. IN THE bU|LD|N OF
 PEERLESS \ U l OS
All Units Are RigidIy Inspect
 ed At Every Step of

The exhaustive tests to which q high quality motor car Is subject before being finally approved are well illustrated in a statement of the car exercised by the Peerless Motor Car cmpany in It's efforts to turn out a car as nearly perfect as it Is possible to build.
 All units entering each Peerless, as engine, cooling system. axels, transmission, universal and body, proved at every step as they are made. The engina, for instance, must pass the block test before 1t can be approved in it's entirety.
 But building automobiles of parts individually correct does not neces- sarily mean that they are correct as a whole. Parts wholly perfect in themselves may not mean that they are correct as whole. Parts wholly perfect in themselves may not coordinate perfectly with every part in practice. And 1t Is to make rectly of itself and with every other part that Peerless conducts mum erous tests to make sure that this CO., ordination actually takes place.
 Though each part of the Peerless chassis has passed its various in- dividual inspections before 1t ever approaches the chassis assembly stage, the chassis must be approved in theory in it's entirety when com pleted and before any running tests are made. Testers then are permit ted to start the motor and the chas sis is run under it's own power for some time in a further inspection.
 But that Is not all. The chassis passes from this running inspection to q more rigorous dynamometer test. where every moving part must pass an operating inspection under L1f frf hat- building of that car can be started. Every moving part must here pass Peerless specifications of endurance. smoothness of operation and general efficiency before the chassis can be approved. The men who are in charge of the Peerless dynamometer fest are among the most expert craftmen In the entire industry.
 only after each car has passed the severe dynomometer test, which al so serves to break in the moving parts more completely, is 1t ready to have the body fitted to it.
 When the body has been fitted, the entire car is again inspected. Then another test is made on the testing track, during which every car Is run at least 10 miles in low informed late and high gears at various speeds to make sure that the entire car Is operating smoothly, quietly and in coordination with all other parts Checkings if individuals test CTS work are frequently made by executive officers.
 Peerless appreciates that some of these steps are not necessary for the great majority of its cars, since it holds it's craftmen to unusually close limits of accuracy and previous inspectfons are severe. It is for the purpose of eliminating imperfections of all sorts, no matter how slight, that every car is compelled to pass every one these tests.

CLOTHES FOR TRAVEL

CHICAGO, Ray 1s-For women who plan automobile jaunts this summer, Miss Florence Greene, teacher of dress designing, of fered some valuable hits in talk to club women here.
 My suggestions" said Miss Greene, "are mainly for women who propose to do certain amount of roughins it on their summer trip and who will stop overnight at little hostoleries along the way or camp out.
 For this sort of trip. khaki knickers are ideal. But if she is averse to such mannish costume, jersey sports suit or suit of tweed is equally serviceable. Corduroy is a trifle heavy for summer wear. Colors that are proof against dust and soil spots are tan, brown, taupe and gray. A low neck will make for coolness. The skirt should end above the ankles.

 Such costume, supplemented with a change or two carried along in suitcase for what may be called dress occasions, will admirably serve for a motor journey of the rough and-ready sort. Thus attired, the motorist will be ready for sun, wind and weather and any kind of fortune the red gods chance to bestow. She will be personable and comforta ble and can devote herself to pure en- joyment with a mind free from all worrY about her toilet.'

OPEN CAR BECOMING | MORE OF A LUXURY AS | CLOSED JOB POPULAR
Folks Tired Of Driving Open Cars Says Jordan
 President

That the open car Is daily becom- ing more of a luxury while the en- closed car Is becoming more of a necessity is the claim of Edward S.. Jordan, president of the Jordan Motor Car company.
 People who have grown tired of driving open cars under unpleasant weather conditions are now entering the closed car field by the thousands through the purchase of low priced two-door enclosed cars" says MT. Jordan, "and once having experi- enced the greater comfort and con venienee that the average closed car offers over the average open car they will continue to want that type.
 But there is already marked tendency toward a more convenient, compact. four-door enclosed car vehicle a combination of the small two-do type and the larger. more cumbersome sedan.
 "The Jordan factory Is now run ring so per cent of it's production on closed cars, with the new four-door brougham scheduled at the rate of 6aN'

Columbia May Lose Its
 Sally Loop Franchise

COLUMBIA, S. C., June 29.-The Columbia team of the South Atlantic association will be a team without a home" unless something is done before Saturday night. President Walsh of the league, in an ultima tum' delivered today to Columbia baseball packers, stated that the team would be permanently re- moved from Columbia unless some thing was done by that time to if nance it
 The team would be operated by the league as a road team for present at least, it was understood here. and the other five clubs would bear their pro rata share of the expense of it's upkeep.
 The Columbia franchise was turned back to the league early this week when it became apparent that the owners could not meet the first June pay roll, then days overdue. This action was taken in order that the players might be held together as within a few hours their contracts would have been invalidated and since that time the team has been operated by the leaeFe. At present Tne team is in Augusta.

 Walker Hits Stride.
 Dixie" then hit his stride for true. He not only pitched remarkable ball from then to the end, but he made the Barons look like a gang of simps, so frequently did he pick them off the bases. He picked Stump Clarke off second and off first and picked Moore and Goebel off first His sniping was an outstanding fea- ture of the contest and the longer the game went on the better he looked.
 Southpaw Moore could not go on walking men forever without getting himself in trouble, and in the Peli- cans ninth, the locals up for their last stand in the face of a to l de- feat, Moore put his foot in it when he walked Schick, first up Bob Dowie was sent in to hit for Fucker who had found Moore's southpawing bewildering. Bob came through in fine style when he nearly knocked the hands off Third Baseman Danny Clark. Schick took second Foss grounded to Hartford and the ball rolled through Hartford's legs, filling the bases. Ewoldt smashed d hot srounder which stewart barely man aged to get his hands on at second, and Schick scored, leaving the bases still full. Henry drew a pass, forcing ip Dowie, and also calling for the lifting of Moore from the game in favor of Walter Stewart, another southpaw.

 Mitze fouled out to the catcher but Walker scratched an infield hit which scored Foss with the tieing run. Stewart knocked down Walkers high bounding grounder, but Hart ford was unable to field it in time to make the putout.

 anne From The Fire

NEW ORLEANS June 29.-Either slipup ill the signal system or a Tack of pep by Eddie Matteson on the third base coaching line cost the Pelicans and "DiXie" Walker a vie tory over the Birmingham Barons this afternoon at Heinemann park
 In the tenth inning, after the Peli- cans already had scored three runs in a cyclonic ninth inning rally, and had tied the score, Cotton naupr was on second base. and "Deeby' Foss smashed a hit through Seconc Baseman Stewards legs. knaupp with d long lead, rounded third and easily would have scored. But he mistook Mattesons matter of fact wave Of the arm to mean stop, and he nearly broke an ankle putting on the breaks and getting back to third baSe. Then he stood there and watched the throw to the plate from right--a throw he could have beaten in a hand gallop.
 That was why Dixie Walker had to go eleven innings until darkness prompted Umpire Bill Brennan to call the game with the score stand ing at to 4.
 Barons Yell "No: No!'
 The Barons, from their bench, had yelled No. No" to Knaupp, but Mattcson easily could have drowned them out and convinced Knaupp the coast was clear, had he waved his arm with a little energy and had he used his voice to shout. Matteson said he told him to come on. knaupp said he told him to stop. It was a e 1d joke on the Pelicans, and as a ult they will have to play dou- -header Saturday and Sunday with ti Barons.

 He continued wild-walked Foss twice more and walked Mitze four times in all--but he was poison so far as allowing safe hits. a fact to which Edward Bogart will testify Edward whiffed the air three times. Time and again the Pelicans put men on bases via the complimentary route Moore kept on walking 'em, but just when it would look as if the Pilcans would walk to a victory. Moore would start putting them over and at times the Pelicans looked pitt full trying to connect.
 Walker began to pitch well, but took things too easy in Birmingham s fifth after striking out Stewart for the second man down. and grew wild. He walked Neun, who stole second and went to third on a wild pitch
