TEA AND COFFEE
PLEASE MILLIONS
Sugar Also Adds to Their
Flavor

Millions Of adults enjoy the flavor
of coffee and tea as a beverage, and
yet there are some who, because
they do not add sugar, miss a great
part of the delicate taste that coffee
and tea should have.
Why do these people leave sugar
out of their coffee or tea? Perhaps
some do not know what they miss.
Perhaps others feel that they should
not enjoy any drink so much. There
are people, for example, who per-
sist in taking cold baths when
warm or tepid bath would be much
more beneficial. Do they feel that
they are benefting themselves by
the hardship of a cold bath? Do
people who leave sugar out of their
coffee or tea feel that they are
benefting themselves by missing
part of the enjoyment?
Just try sugar in your coffee and
tea if you haven't yet learned how
much it improves it. Learn to use
the amount that just suits your
taste. Sugar is the perfect flavor
developed by Nature. 1t makes
nearly all foods and beverages more
delightful to the taste.
Coffee and tea are Americas
popular beverages. Sugar enables
every cup to promote happiness by
affording individual flavor. The

DETOUR PROBLEM
FOUND IN CITIES
Repair of PavementS Causes
Recruiting of Traffic in
Spring Season.

All detours are not found in the
country. City streets blocked of for
repair work, particularly in the Spring
and early Summer. constitute hin
ORANGES that in many cases are more
costly and bothersome than rural de-
tours. according to E. E. Duffy, highway
educational writer.
Streets not designed for the heavy
volume of modern traffic are as neediui
of a Spring tonic as any pork-fed
voungster. Unfortunately, street surfaces
that do not stand up under an ordinary
winters strain can never be called
first class pavementS or termed eco
nomical pavements.
Practically every city Of any age Is
burdened with conspicuous mileage
of streets, laid a score or so OF years
ago. more with horse traffic In mind
than the automobile To keep such
streets In disable condition means an alb
normal absorption of city funds that
might better be applied for new street
surfacing.
GAINESVILLE, Wis, a short time ago ap-
piled simple arithmetic to the street
problem and found that 1t would be
cheaper to replace old pavements with
surfacing of permanent type. James
vile is now saving $4,000 yearly
through repaving.
Rural road detours for the most part
are made necessary by the construction
of permanent pavements that will eliml-
nate road worries for good many
wears. The far-sighted notorist has

HIGHWAY STYLES
$4,000 Miles of Rigid Pave

Room to Turn.

Automobiles got the Jump on i'm
proved roads about quarter century
ago. and have kept the lead ever since,
according to E. l.. Duffy. highway edu-
cational writer Early highway activi-
ties of Michigan. Maryland. Illinois.
New York and other States gave proof
that Ii was possible to extend side
walks" into the country.
From the first mile OF concrete rural
road laid near Detroit in 1909. has
sprung some $4,000 miles of rigid pave
ments. Yet If all the automobiles in
this country were to be placed on these
pavementS there would not be room for
them TO turn,
Automobiles have been responsible for
good many changes in American social
and commercial life: 1t is not Ear
amiss to attribute to the car the sensible
improvements in women's dress and the
sharpened appetite for outdoor life.
1t is natural that the physical factor
most directly concerned with the opera
ton of the automobile be also changed.
The highway is undergoing a revision
as definite as the improvement IN auto
mobiles themselves.
The highway must be looked upon In
q different light now than in years gone
by, when a blazed trail or rutted path
sufficed. The automobile Is one thing.
the horse and buggy quite another. Yet
horse and buggy ideas on road building
still persist to an uncomfortable degree.
Where transportation facilities have
been lacking progress has been checked.
The coming of steam transportation
stimulated the world as had no other
discovery. Now that the automobile has
placed the means of getting about rap
idly In the hands OF every fifth or sixth
person, a prosperity OF wealth and edu-
cation has been set up that is the

NEW MODELS HELD
PROBLEM IN SALES
Production Before Dealers
Move Older Types Brings
Criticism.

The Importance of new models IN
stimulating automobile sales cannot be
underestimate. according to B. II.
Cram. president Of Grams Automotive
Reports, Inc, industry authority.
However, several important problems
must be faced whenever radical changes
are made. Certain preparations for the
new cars should be made. Manufacturers
are criticized because they bring out
new models before the dealers, who may
have heavy stocks of the old models on
hand, are in a position to handle them
successfully.
1t Is difficult to state Just how this
problem can be solved. 1t should be a
matter worked out by each individual
manufacturer and co-operated in to the
fullest extent by the dealer. An intelli-
gent and far-sighted merchandising
program should permit the scientific re-
duction of manufacturers and dealers
stocks to minimum at the time Of the
new announcement.
Manufacturing programs and sched-
ules should be so arranged as to allow
all dealers to have enough cars to meet
the initial demand. And, last Of all,
dealers, knowing that new models are
coming should not relax their selling
efforts on the old models.
should also be considered. Actually
new cars or new models fulfill a con-
sumner demand inasmuch as line changes
are usually made to meet competitive
situation In spite of this dealers and.
| in some cases. manufacturers, feel hest
| tant about changes because OF the Ell
| feet they will have on consumers VINO
have recently bought the old models and
who will feel that their cars VIII de-
preciate substantially as soon as new
model Is brought out.
This, of course. is an unfortunate and
entirely unjust way OF looking at the
matter. Actually, new model has no
effect on the real value or an older car.
| The new line detracts not at all from
| the old cars mechanical qualities or its
| ability TO perform or Junction properly.
| STYLE may be affected. but the auton1o-
| bile industry will be in better position
when It cducates the public TO prize
mechanical perfection and performance
above style In other words, there Is
probably little gained in buying new
car each year, while great deal Is lost
| through the unused mileage that Is dis
carded.
If this matter of the proper arrange
ment of dealers stocks and the educa-
| ton of the public could be accomplished.
producers would be in position TO
work out costs Of operation and manu-
| featuring on such basis that two
yearly model announcements would De
customary instead of one. This. as We
have shown, would stimulate sales az
| the proper seasons, and even cut 70
sonae extent the weaker sales periods.

BALTIMORE. July THE Wash
ington- Baltimore boulevard will be
widened to 40 feet by adding i0-foot

was announced by the State roads
commission this week.
Work will be started next week on

finished by the middle of November.
The cost for widening the road the

tional units and the work will be
carried on as rapidly as possible.
While the two concrete strips are
being constructed. the center OF the
roadway will be OPEN to traffic
When the strips are completed traf-
fic will be diverted to them and the

Sale of u. S. Autos
To European Trade

More than go per cent OF the

last year we're handled on the in

partment of Commerce figures. In
q recent discussion Of the growth Of
this purchase plan F. B. Sears, in

ment:
THE success of installment SELL
ing abroad has been great boon to
American automotive exports. This
is clearly shown by the 500 per cent
increase of cur exports in the last
10 years. Although European meth
DDS of financing installment sales
are still open to improvement, their
present systems have given consid-
cradle impetus to buying demand for
every type of motor vehicle"
