Yet perhaps even greater was the
genius which Washington showed in
surviving defeats that the political
anarchy of the colonies made inev-
liable, and keeping together an army
under conditions in which any other
chieftian must have given way to des-
pair.
Soul of the Revolution
Even with Washington to guide, the
revolution came within hairs
breadth of defeat. Without his lead
ership. it must have failed altogether.
Doubtless the struggle would have
been renewed at more opportune time,
but the loss would have been terrific,
not only to America, but to the world.
More than one British historian has
seen and said that in resisting the
encroaching tyranny of George III,
Americans were maintaining English
liberties as we'll as their own.
7 In making a new nation out of the
jarring states, Washington's political
sagacity was as vital as his military
skill in the war. He was as great an
administrator as he had been q sold
ier; and in the beginning he was the
one man whom all factions trusted.
When he took office, the country was
bankrupt, chaotic, torn by sectional
clashes, destitute Of any authority
which could be asserted against de-
termined opposition. When he retir-
ed to private life, eight years later,
the nations credit was high, section
al differences had begin to die away,
an attempt at rebellion had been
crushed, the new government was q
going concern. One may doubt if
anyone save Washington could have
accomplished such results.

WILL YOUR CAR
 MAKE THE GRADE
Chandler With Pike Peak Motor
 Does It Easily. Says McCartY

Can you make the grade in high?' asks T. F McCarty of McCarty- Greene Motor company, Birmingham Chanrled dealers. The things you have always wished you could do, you can do with the Chandler" he says and to bear out this assertion he will tell you something like this:
 The Pikes Peak motor has dem onstrated it's outstanding perform ance ability on SS famous hills in the United States.
 Tt has gained official recognition by winning the Mt. Diablo hill climb trophies. For the first time a six. the Chandler, holds both these cups -one open only to cars of four and six cylinders, the other open to eights and twelves as well. Never before was the latter trophy won by any car other than an eight or a twelve.
 This power plant was developed to meet the ideal of the Chandler engineers--to perfect an engine that would perform normally. without heating, knocking, or laboring, throughout the ascent of Pikes Peak, the higest motor highway in the world.
 "The ideal was attained

|. H. PENNINGTON IS
 BACK FROM DETROIT
Visits Paige-Jewett Factories-Sees Tests Which Insure Performance

The road test of the Paige 6-70 re- minded me strangely of my impres- sions, gained in the early school days, of the Spanish In1uisition," says MT. L. H. Pennington of Detroit Motor company, telling of a recent trip to the Paige factory in Detroit.
 The road tester must take the new chassis on the road and submit it to g quiz which includes some 70 odd items" he says. These are listed on card carried by the road man. Every i'll that a motor car mechanism is heir to could be found on that list. The 17 items listed under the head of motor for instance left nothing whatever to the imagination In the way of engine trouble. Glancing at the card and following on down the list I doubted whether any human being, with two to three hours driv- ing of a car over the road. could pos sbly catch all of the major and minor faults which occurred in the fertile brain of the chief inspector who made up the card.
 But lets get into 1nquisition' and let the tester get out onto the road. While I have been looking at the card the tester has walked three times around the chassis with a wrench and a rair of pliers.
 AS he stepped into the test body seat, the tester told me that he had made preliminary adjustments of the spark and carburetor, had inspected the front wheels and spindles and tagged gas line, which was bent and out of proper line.
 My glance turned toward the chassis but as my eyes picked up the gas line. off moved the car, the road tester has started out on his grind. I would have liked to have gone with him but had been told by MT. H. M. Jewett, president of the Paige com pany, when he sent me out In the plant, that this was impossible. Every tester must go alone, in order

lines. A combination caution signal and tail lamp is mounted rigidly on the license plate bracket and con forms with the requirements of all states having lighting regulations.
 Brake pedal pads are larger and of design which makes for greater ease and safety, The hand brake lever, like the shifting lever, is moved forward, giving more leg room and making 1t easier to get in and out. A Yale lock Is built into the trans mission. making 1t possibleto double lock the car when idle.
 The steering wheel Is materially improved in appearance and all cleo trical connections are inside the steering column.
 The front springs are increased in length and from IA to 2 inches in width and built of more leaves of a thinner stock. The rear springs, in addition to being longer, are now semi-elliptic and flat.
 The front axle Is of a design un- usually strong. The camber, or in tilt of the front wheels Is increased, making steering easier. new gear ratio of the rear axle gives in creased flexibility and adds to the ability of Dodge Brothers cars as hil! climbers.
 In the Type A sedan, the upholstery Is the finest grade moha1r velvet, and all interior hardware is of dis tinctive Dodge Brothers design. The business coupe and business sedan are finished in attractive Spanish blue leather.
 The fiscal year ending July 1 was the most successful in the history Of Dodge Brothers, their dealers hav- ing marketed approximately 200, ,000 cars. With the Improvements now put into effect. obviously making the car better and more attractive in every way, though still retaining the essential attributes to which the car owes it's great popularity, 1t seems quite evident that this company has not yet reached the maximum of it's potentialities, despite the tremendous record of the year just closed

Birmingham Chevrolet Dealer Celebrates Seventh Anni-
 Versary This Week

Seven years ago this month the Edwards Motor company was or sanized by W. Sterling Edwards, Jr., and began business in a modest building at 21o Twenty-first street, south. He offered to the Birming- ham public the Chevrolet car and has continued to handle only this car for the past seven years. The first homo of tho Edwards Motor company, a little one-story building. was only a 30-foot front by 90 feet in depth. MT. Edwards states that he began business with the policy of giving the public a square deal in every detail and the best service possible. That his faith in such policy and In the Chevrolet car was Justified and has lead to a splendid success Is shown by tho fact that today tho Edwards Motor company ranks among the larger organizations in tho Birming- ham automobile trade. and it's now selling more cars in month than were sold in the first year of busi- ness.
 The present quarters of tho Ed wards organization Is at 1920 Third avenue, north, where five-story building with moro than 2l,OOo feet of floor space Is occupied ana more than 30 persons are employed. Here Chevrolet cars are sold and serV1ced and every facility for giving. satis- faction to Chevrolet owners Is pro- vided. A modern painting depart ment Is maintained. as well as parts department and an accessory department.
 MT. Edwards has just cause to pc, proud of his achievement In bullor ing up such splendid business ano Is heinz congratulated by hundreds of friends and patrons upon fhls seventh anniversary.

NEW DODGE SHOWN BY BROWNELL AUTOCO.
New Features Are Added And
 Many Improvements Noted

Marked improvement in appearance and comfort is apparent in the new line of Dodge Brothers motor cars, in the production of which the fac tory has been gathering momentum since July 1. Hundreds of dealers are now supplied with display cars of the new type, and from every source the factory Is receiving reports of enthusiastic approval by the public.
 While the basic characteristics of the familiar Dodge Brothers cars of recent days are still present. there is an air of distinctiveness that sur passes all previous efforts of this concern to build a moderately priced car of commendable appearance as we'll as quality.
 The wheelbase is a trifle longer, the body is lower and the rear type are under-slung. and increased from 45 to 55 inches In length.
 All the features so popular with the public today are embodied in the design of the complete line. which includes a touring car, roadster, coupe, two types of sedan, and screen side and panel side commercial cars as first introduced by Dodge Brothers in their open passenger cars several years ago-are now used for all types.
 The effect of the longer and lower body and longer wheelbase, combined with the new lines and lower seats is very fine. According to dealers and others who have driven the new cars, the improvement in riding qual- ities Is no less pronounced than the improvement in general design. The reduction of body height lowers the center of gravity and thereby reduces sidesway, while rebound shocks are effectively dissipated by the i'm proved front and rear springs. The car holds the road easily and grace. fully and affords real riding com fort.
 Another distinct new feature :s the louvers or ventilator slits in the sides of the hood panels. This change increases the flow of air through the radiator and reduces the flow of hot air to the floor boards, making sum- mer driving most comfortable.
 The rear seat and all upholstery of the touring car are removable, affording a large space for loading luggage or other articles. Seats in all types are deeper and lower. add ing to comfort and leg room.
 The instrument board Is greatly. improved In appearance, with instru- ments grouped on a raised panel and with longer lighting switch lever, facilitating control of the lights while driving. to. harmonize with the new body

Pulling out his card, he began check ing over the parts of the motor car that were markell on his list. His actions were the same though, as I had seen the nearly score of other testers go through on coming into the plant.
 Whats the trouble7 I asked him. My curiosity had been thoroughly aroused.
