| Dodge Brothers automobiles have
been sold and serviced in Bismarck
during the past eight years exclu
sively by the NJ. B. Gilman company.
Until last summer the company was
located at 212 Main street, but real
izing the great necessity of having
more space the company. had erected
at the corner of Broadway and Sec

now devoted entirely and exclusive
ly to the sales and servicing Of
Dodge Brothers motor cars and

industry.
The building is 5Ox140 feet in size,

that more stories may be added when
necessity arises. At the northeast
corner of the building is spacious
and weN-lighted display room, ca
pable of holding at least five cars
and of showing them to the best pos

main display room is a smaller dis
play room for used automobiles.
Both rooms are arranged with the
comfort of the prospective pur.

Adjoining the display room is Mr..
Gilman's private office: which is we'll

trative work at the Oakland Motor
Car company to produce the Oakland
and Pontiac Skies is gradually being
augmented. A. j. Brandt, vicc-prcsi-
dent in charge of operations, states
that within the next two months this
force will be increased by approx
mate1y 600, bringing the number Of
employees up to the highest peak in
the history of the company-cqualled
only in the boom year of 1919.
That this number Of employees can
build the number Of Gags of both
lines scheduled for this year illus
tratcs. according to Mr.. Brandt. the
great strides that have been made in
production efficiency.
Manufacturing equipment is be-
ing improved so rapidly that it has
the practical effect Of increasing the
potential capacity of every motor car
plant by significant percentage
each year." he states. Every time
a factory set-up is laid out for a
new model. it is found that consider
ably less space is required for the
same sequence Of operations than for
cars built in former years.
"The removal of all bodybuilding
activities to the Fisher Body corpora
ton plant within few blocks from
the factory has given much space in
the Oakland plants. Conveyor sys-
tens, more efficient arrangement of
production machinery and more eff
fective use of man power has en-
abled us to turn out more autOmO-
biles in a given space than ever be-
fore.
"Separate departments and sepa-
rate assembly lines for the Oakland
Skies and Pontiac Skies are so ar
ranged as to utilize our factory space
most economically. The production

1.-THE HOME MAKER"
 AT THE LIBERTY

Life, just as it is lived by the aver age American family, with it's many yicissitudes, some of them small in reality but mountainous to those dir ectly concerned, is laid bare in dra- matic style in "The Home Maker" Universal-Jewel King Baggot produc- tion playing tonight at the Liberty theatre. Alice Joyce and Give Brook are being featured in this grip ping picture of everyday interest.
 3'The Home Maker" which was dir ected by King Baggot, pictures story the living scenes of which are daily being enacted in countless homes throughout, the land. It gets over it's lesson without having the heavy appearance of attempting to do so for the Knapp family, the subject of this dramatic study, is well known type, easily recognized among our own friends and neighbors.
 It is different too in that the pie ture offered the temptation of work ing into it the thread-bare eternal triangle for Eva Knapp could have been given a sweetheart when Lester, her husband, became an apparently hopeless cripple. This was sidestepped much to the betterment of the pie ture and to the pleasure of the au- dience. ~
 Universal and King Baggott, who directed the making of the picture. al so side-stepped another pitfall in that the prosaid movie ending which was avoided and a climax different and daring from the usual run of picture play endings, brought down the cur tain on this big screen play. It is not a sad ending nor sordid ending but one that gives those who see the pie ture something to think about on the way home. Miss Joyce as Eva Knapp and Brook as Lester Knapp, her hus- band, present picture of a husbands and wife that might be found in any neighborhood. sr
 4 The players supporting Miss Joyce and Brook are George Fawcett, Frank Newberg, Margaret Campbell, Martha Mattox, Lloyd Whitlock, Billy Schaef. fer, Maurice Murphy, Jacqueline Wells, Alfred Fisher, Alice Flowers Virginia Boardman, Elaine Ellis and Mary Gordon. esTs

Black is an important note in the fall day mode. This color, banished so long in favor of more brilliant hues, is revived for both street en- semblcs and afternoon frocks. It is used alone or, if a more brilliant effect is desired with gold or silver trimming. Smart, practical and youthful, the black satin frock shown in the sketch today successfully solves the problem of an autumn afternoon dress. Its silhouette is the straight, slender contour that has proven so generally becoming, and its trim ming is striking without being un- duly elaborate.
 It is a one-piece model with a long waisted bodice and a short skirt made with inverted pleats across the front section. This fea- ture breaks the rigid silhouette, giv- ing ease and freedom in walking.
 More important even than the graceful lines is the decorative trimming consisting of silver stitch ing in band at the hips, in an ornamental scroll pattern on the sleeves, and in a narrow border at the neck-line.
 The hat is black velvet with a high crown crushed down on one side.
 Black combined with silver makes chic and practical afternoon cos tune. The hat is black velvet. Copyright, 1926 (EFS)

Katie Analyzes the Episode of
 Veritzen's Flowers


 At Katherines protest that I had left no roses for my own room. Lil- lian looked up quickly.
 "shs doesn't need anything in there" she said. This is her work room and these creamy yellow half opened buds sare her favrites."
 There was 8 trace of confusion in Katherlne's usually perfectly poised manner. and I knew that she was resretting her impetuous speech, and that she as well as Lillian un- derstood that I would not risk in- tensitying Dicks almost certain dis pleasure at Philip Veritzen's tribute, by appropriating any of the blos- sons for my own room. She recov- cred herself quickly. however. and smiled quizzically at me.
 But you've sighted another per- son who does need them, or will think she does" she said in low voice.
 "Katie!" I whispered, for I did not wish to have my little maid feel that I had forgotten her. "I'n have to be an Indian Giver, girls I went on. Give me one of each of yours, and I'll take one from mine and one from Marys. Then we'll have to rummage for receptacles for these"
 With the four exquisite roses in my hands I went out to the kitchen, to be received by Katie with squeals of rapture when I told her that the roses were for her.
 Were dey come from?" she asked with impotence as characteristic as itwas unintentional.
 "Mr. Veritzen Sent Them"
 "Mr. Veritzen sent them to well come Mary Harrison home" I ex- plained, for in Dickys parlance, it is no use to high-hat Katie" She does not understand snubbing, and I long ago discovered that I either must humor her idiosyncrasies. take her "as is," or let her go for good, an alternative I never have been able to face with equanimity.
 ''Meester Veritzen!" she repeated, her face and eyes alight with inter- est. Dot swell old guy vot feexed dot fresh taxi mans goot and plenty dot day I first coon from farm?"
 Yes" I answered. warned by a speculative and curious look in my littel maids eyes to escape from her
