Ruskin's Voice About. ;.

. never met anyone in my life
whose personal appearance Hsap-

writes Frank Harris in Americas
Mercury. Until l saw him I had
always believed that man of great
ability showed his genius in some
feature or other, but could find no
hint in Ruskins face or figure that
suggested abnormal talent.
His appearance was not even pre-
possessing. He looked shriveled
up and shrunken, though he was
perhaps Ave feet seven in height {;
he was slight to frailty and
stopped; in spite of large nose,
his face was too small, bOny, thin,
and very wrinkled: the gray hair
that must once have been reddish

beard and whiskers were gray. too.
and struggling thin; the eyes were
bright, grayish-blue in color, quick
glancing now, now meditative
under the thick outjutting brows :
the high aquiline nose was matched
by a somewhat receding chin :
nothing in his face or figure was
impressive or arresting; his clothes
even were loose and ill-fitting; his
manner shy, self-conscious, unas-
sured; I was disappointed to doubt.

But as soon as he got excited IN
speaking noticed his voice, a thin
high tenor, irresistibly. pathetic; II
often walled and sometimes cursed
but was always intense. The soul
OF the man was in that singular
musical voice with its high rhetoric
and impassioned moral appeal.

TREMENDOUS
DEMAND FOR
CAR is SHOWN

The tremendous international de-
mand that the Chrysler Six has Gre
ated has resulted in an output OF
this widely heralded automobile
which has shattered all records ever
made by a motor car in its first six
months of production, it is announ-
ced in Detroit.
The 1O,OOOth Chrysler Six rolled
off the final assembly line of the
Chrysler Motor Corporations De-
troit plant before the middle of
June.
The record achieved by the or
ganization headed by Walter P.
Chrysler in producing 10000 motor
cars in less than six months fol-
lowing cars first announcement is
a record unapproached by the auto
mobile industry. It, is believed in
Detroit that no industrial enter
prise ever created has shown, with
in similar period, demand for
new product resulting in sales of
more than $15,0OO,000 worth of mer-
chandise.
"This achievement is even greater
than it sounds when the unusual
precautions taken to insure quality
are considered" Fred NJ. Zeder,
vice-president in charge of engi-
neering of the Maxwell and Chrys-
Ter motor corporations, said yester-
day. Mr.. Zeder and his organization
spent nearly four years designing
the car. "Only strict attention to
every detail of quality has kept
Chrysler production from being
much larger, for the demand for
cars has been overwhelming, with
production still behind demand. But
Mr.. Chrysler has issued unmistak-
able instructions that quality must
be the foremost consideration in
every operation"
Chryslcr production recently has
averaged slightly more than $50 cars
a day. Plant charges will soon en-
able this to be moved upward slight
ly. it is thought. Officials now es-
innate that $1,000 cars will have
| been produced by or before August
L.,
Incidentally, this would seem to
indicate that business conditions
throughout the country are funda-
mentally sound, and that continued
good business is in prospect.
Many nationally prominent mer
and women are already Chrysler Sin
owners-high government and state
officialG, corporation executives,
bank presidents, artists, actors ane
actresses, railroad executives ant
publishers. These INCLUDE Rear Ad
