A large number of some of Eng.

recently been acquired in this coun-

through old models is a fascinating
art.
Among the celebrated models
recently brought to the United
States is that of H. H. s.. Corona
ton, built IN Portsmouth in 1885 by
Isaac Belts. The vessel was of
1856 tons, carried ninety guns and
was the flagship Of Sir Ralph
Deleval, defeated in connection with
the Dutch by the French in the bat
tie Of Beachy Head, June 80, 1890.
The model was formerly the prop.

who subsequently became James II
Of England.
The model is a veritable gem of

I 800 Dimes SAVED
BY WOMAN IN YEAR

CEDAR RAPIDS, July 10. "A
year ago one Of the local national
banks made an appeal TO its de-
positors to save their dimes. 1t
stressed the point that thousands
of dimes were foolishly spQnt each
year because a dime was such a
small coin and seemingly valueless.
1t urged its depositors to make
ninety cents do the work Of every
dollar and deposit the other dime
in a savings account.
The idea took" Scores of saw.
ings accounts were started and
thin" dimes became as popular AZ
hard dollars. Now the bank is tell.
ing of the success of the plan.

which she saved in one year from
dimes, money she ordinarily would
have spent and thought nothing
about it nor considered herself any
poorer.

WALTER P CHRYSLER'S  TALKS
STOP BEFORE CROSSING RAIL
 ROAD TRACKS

Motor cars should be compelled to stop before crossing railroad tracks. In some states laws requiring cars to stop have been attacked on the ground that the motorist loses time. What of it? The loss of minute may save a life.
 Examinaticn of drivers is all right but those who do the examining should be examined also. Examination is of little value unless the examining is in competent hands.
 If necessary states should increase the salaries of those who do the ex- amining to make sure that competent personnel is employed.
 Traffic relief has to do not only with the convenience of city dwellers but also with their safety Is any other reason needed why care should be taken always by both pedestrian and motor ist?
 LESSON FOR TRUCK OWNERS
 In certain city last year one person was killed for every 110 heavy trucks used one for every 1000 motor cars usd for the transportation of passen- gers. Which teaches the lesson that owners of trucks should exercise every care to entrust their heavy trucks to experienced drivers only. After all the owner of the truck is legally responsible for his drivers actions

A NEW SERVICE FOR WOODLAWN AydalOtt Motor Service To Open On 58th
 Street

A new and sure to be appreciated service will soon be available for Wood lawn motorists, when the additions to the large Go-Zip filling station at Fifty-eighth street and First avenue are ready. This will be in few days and announcement of the formal opening will be made shortly.
 The new service will be operated by the Aydalott Motor Service company, which is allied with the Alemite Lu- bricator company. This concern will provide, in addition to gasoline, Ale mite fabrication, washing, doping, tires and accessories. Other stations in vari- ous parts of the city are contemplating plans for which are already underway. The new station will be of the most modern type, two pits are being in- stalled and every other facility for prompt service. Thus there will be a service for motorists in the eastern part of town that will be sure to prove a great convenience and which will be further recommended by the moderate charges made and efficient, expert service rendered.

WARM WEATHER
 HELPING TRADE
Will Prove A Wonderful Business Stimulant
 Thinks Pryor |.

"This warm weather means every- thing to business.
 What we need is a million dollar stretch of good warm days. One week of summery weather would easily be worth fortune to the Birmingham motor trade"
 This is the opinion of A. R. Pryor, Hudson-Essex distributor. In the six months since January 1, Birmingham has done business in an amazing vol tune, but he declares that warm weath- CT will prove a wonderful further stimu- Jus.
 Our own concern would be benefited indirectly rather than directly" said Pryor, because with our great propor- tion of enclosed Hudson and Essex sell just about as good one season as an other.
 But we know that many of our Iogi- cal customers-merchants, wholesalers and business men of all sort-have been under an unusual strain this spring be- cause the weather has kept them from their usual fine trade. Give these men a week or ten days of fine eather. and you'll have the shelves empty. and an unprecedented rush of business. And having money, these business men will

speed in comfort and safety? The auto mobile, in it's turn, must be made stable.
 In ''stabilators," differing entirely in principle from anything previously de- vised, science maintains the equilibrium of the automobile under all widely dif- ferent road conditions.
 "Stabilators" accomplish this by a new way of applying the braking prin- ciple. They are brakes which control the recol of the car springs after they have been compressed by a bump OF hole.
 This wider use has brought costs down to a point where almost any own- CT can now have his car "stabilated." The makers recently publicly announced a reduction in prices from $64 to $4S. Very small cars can be "stabilated" for even as little as $25. In the same an- nouncement, the public was assured that "in no detail or particular has the quail ity, design or construction of 'stabi- lators' been changed" They are sold in by Woodward Battery com- Dany

STERILIZATION TO

A New Word In Language Of The Motor

The steamship, the railroad, the air plane, have at some points in their evo- lution gone through exactly the same stages as the automobile. There was the era of motion. The wonder then was that the ship. the train, the plane actually moved. Came the era of style the moving ship and train were made attractive and inviting. The confidence of mastery brought the era of speed. And, as ever, the extreme was followed by a return to moderation. Economy, safety and comfort were sought-the ship, the train and plane were made stable.
 And now the automobile has entered the same era of "stabilization." Motion and efficiency of operation, luxurious style, speed-those eras have been passed. How to use that power and

yCAMPAIGN FOR
 NEW MEMBERS
Prizes Given For Getting. Members. Meeting In
 Selma

A novel means of enlisting in it's allied interest in Alabama is being un- dertaken by the membership committee of the Alabama Automotive Trades as- sociation of which R. M. Wikle of Talla- dega, is chairman. Under the super vision of Secretary Jim Farley of Bir- mingham, salesmen of all of the job ping interests of the state are actively campaigning to enroll their customers in the association, dues for which have been set at the nominal figure of SIP per year for automobile dealers and $7.50 per year for allied interests.
 In the membership campaign as worked out, the various jobber sales men will be offered attractive articles of merchandise as prizes for securing memberships. In addition they will be serving as the contact men for the ex- change of ideas and in the development of the association's various educational programs. Some 60 such statesmen are already actively at. work in this campaign and it is hoped that fully 90 per cent of the automobile dealers of the state will be enrolled in the association by the time of the regu- lar midsummer meeting in Selma on July 21 and 9.
 Pointing towards this midsummer meeting the various committees of the association are actively engaged in formulating their programs of activity and the program committee is plan ming interesting and instructive features during the two days.
 Congressman Lister Hill of Mont gomery, former attorney for the body and now active in automobile legisla- tive matters in Washington, will be the chief speaker at the two-day meet ing as well as many men of national importance in the automotive industry. In addition there will be an exhibit of automotive merchandise by the jobber membership of the association, as well as exchange of merchandising ideas. President Ted Brownell of BirminR- ham, expects the Selma meeting to be one of the most instructive and re- sultful gatherings of automobile men ever held in the state and is bending every effort towards that mark. A record attendance is expected and plans are being made for two days of unusual entertainment.

spend it, so that business will loosen up all along the line.
 Because we have had a quiet spring, we should all have good business right along into July and August. There is a great deal of accumulated buying to do.
 "We have just received the interest ing news from the Hudson Motor Car company that despite bad weather and all they have sold already nearly as many Essex cars as in all of 1924. This is right on schedule, as it had been the Hudson program this year to produce and sell twice as many Essex cars this year as last. The public has stepped right in and taken them. Certainly the Essex Six has been one of the real sensations of the year.
 With the political conventions clear ed away, the business public will have much healthier sentiment, too"
