him with q cIamOrous desire to

1t was all an unexpected mys-

his mind. She was Disguised with
herself because she felt lowered

The amazing thought ran
through his head that Marian

that her emotions were usual.

duce the prosperity of the nation
In sense, America, almost uncon-
sciously, has become a single huge
mechanism in which agriculture,
manufacture, transportation, public
utilities, mining, banking, insurance
and other divisions work together
with a degree of harmony for the
welfare of the whole.
In such a great interdependent
mechanism, injury to any one part
is harmful to all other parts and the
actual failure of an important divi-
sion endangers the security of the
whole.
Among all the divisions of the
American industrial machine, few
can compare in magnitude of oper-
ations, in direct effect upon other
divisions and in importance to the
welfare of the entire population
with that vast and little understood
enterprise-the growing and manu-

The State of Delaware has made

University of Delaware, shis work is
to be accomplished by Helen V. Nc

In a circular letter she issued this

I'm THE Spring of 1925 Dodge
Brothers undertook an important
and gigantic task - which is now
complete.
Since its inception in 1914 Dodge
Brothers had specialized exclusively in
a four-cylinder product. During thir-
teen years more than two million units
of that product were sold to America
and to the world.
1t is unnecessary here to comment on
the singular merits Ofthat famous Four.
1t was honored on the battlefelds of
war, and achieved equal distinction on
the highways and byways of peace.
Its long life and complete depend
ability had become an adage.
Meanwhile, however, times were
changing and tastes were changing
with them.
While still as important as ever, de-
pendability alone was no longer
sufficient.
Greater speed and comfort, more style
and luxury were the growing PrePOs-
sessions of the hour.
Two years ago Dodge Brothers APP
praised its task and embarked upon
a program designed to place it and its
Dealer Organization in position on
January 1, 1923, second to none in
the industry.
The astonishing results of this great
achievement are now known to the
world.
