THEY BE OVERHEARD.
Ito catch what is being said The

Overheard at Theater.
Recently in theater such con-
EverSation was forced upon me. A
couple back of me We're discussing
ultimate affairs of their mutual ac-
|Auaintances. They had not the slight

out pet names have way of clinging
o persons, and ], too, knew the
ames, both the pet ones and the
$irst names mentioned. Those con-
SversinG had the good manners not to
speak of these people by their last
Bnames. However, l knew the things
about which they were so glibly talk
ing. While the things were not in
Ithe least detrimental to any one, they
were intimately personal. Though

Sign of Good Breeding.
Conversation in public has to be
guarded. Not only does etiquette stress
this, but caution prescribes it. The
much-traveled person appreciates it's
value. The well bred person follows
!, the dictates. 1t is the person who
would like to have those about inn
pressed by the fact that something
rice has happened Cor is going to
happen) who disregards the admoni
ton. There is a youthful bubbling
up of spirits that often efferVeSces in
too loud talk in public, without the
slightest appreciation of those out
side of the group, and who are about
them. 1t was to such exuberant and
excellent young people that the prin
|cipal gave the words of admonition.

100000 SAVED
FOR AUTO BUYERS

"Chrysler motor car buyers will b.
saved S5,000,000 during the first year
of the operation of the Chrysler Plan,
said Frank Hagan of the Guarantee
Motor Car Company, in explaining
the new plan which reduces finance
charges and lowers insurance rates.
The Chrysler Plan is the result
of long study on the part of Chrys-
Ter executives how to reduce the de-
ferred payment delivery price Of
Chrysler cars. The Chrysler Corpora
ton concluded that a first step would
be TO take advantage of its mass pur-
chase power and TO arrange for the
lowest finance charges, such charges TO
be uniform throughout the United
States.
obviously no company is going to
finance the sale of n car on defer
red payment basis unless that car is
insured against loss from fire or theft.
So once again the ChrySler Corpora
ton took advantage of its mass pur,
chase power and arranged for insur.
ance on all Chrysler cars. the same TO
take effect at the time of delivery t.
purchaser.
THE Chrysler Corporation today
provides for minimum finance charges
on cars sold on the deferred payment
basis.
The Chrysler Corporation sells nil
Of its cars insured against loss from
fire and theft for one year"

TRIP TO DETROIT
FROM Los ANGELES

Los Angeles TO Detroit at a total

insurance men who recently made the
trip of 3104 miles at an expense OF
$44.40 for gasoline, oil and food or
seven-tcnths of a cent per man per
mile, according 10 the Smith Motor

The Chevrolet used was a sedan

1925 CAR SALE
NEAR PEAK
Of 1928
Walter Chrysler Predicts
Healthy Condition for
Industry in 1926.

Walter P. Chrysler, president
Chrysler Sales Corporation, is enthus.
iastic about prospects for the motor
industry for the last half of 1925
In a statement printed by the Wall
Street Journal during the past week,
he said: "AutOmobile sales for 1928
will very closely approach those of
1923 the record year. Production
viii probably run % per cent of 1923
and with general tendency all along
the line of holding down dealers stocks
to current sales demand, the industry
should go into 1926 in q very healthy
condition, reports the Guarantee Mo-
tor Car company.
"The recent price reductions should
be looked at as very constructive
thing. The same number of cars that
cost the public S2,000,000,00 at the
old prices will now cost the public
81, 80, 100000 at the new prices.
These lower costs mean in turn that
about S150,000.000 less credit will
be required to handle the financing.
This virtually means an addition of
$50, 100000 to the fund available for
motor cars and should be
reflected in sales during the coming
six months.
In figuring future demand for
motors few people nowadays take con-
sideration of the greater mileage got
ten out of cars. Where a few years
ago the man who ran his car 5000
miles a year was the exception, now
a man who does not run 10000 miles
a year is the exception. Motor trans
portation has got to be figured on the
mileage basis-not how many years
the car lasts-and while cost per mile
has been going steadily downward,
the number of miles per month or
year for every driver has been going
steadily upward. And it will continue
50 long as the public road system is
being extended. Competition is also
finding its expression in other direc-
tons than price,
