Reaping Reward Real Threat.

p EAPING REWARD is considered
the stables real threat, however,
ranking only a notch below Pompoon
and Brooklyn in the future books at
10 to /. This son of Sickle won only
5 of his Is starts as a 2year-old,
but wound up the year with two
victories that stamped him as route
running horse.
He whipped Pompoon by nose
in the mile and 70 yards Of the New
England Futurity and then came back
a week later to take the mile Of the
Kentucky Jockey Club Stakes at the
Downs. These two victories, together
with triumph in the United States
Hotel Stakes at Saratoga, figured
largely in his total earnings of S56,965.

Judge Bentley
Sorority

That 95 per cent Of the cases
brought before the Juvenile
Court of the District of Co
lumbia were for nonsupport was
stated by Judge Fay Bentley in
an address before the Washing
ton Alumnae Group of Delta
Gamma, international sorority,
at its annual dinner meeting last
night in the clubhouse of the
American Association of Univer.
Sity Women, 1884 / st. N. w.
Dealing with nonsupport in
the case Of mothers whose chill
dren are born out Of wedlock,
Judge Bentley emphasized that
the Juvenile Court is the only
court in the District of Colum-
bia where a mother Of an illegiti-
mate child may seek help and
gain support for the child from
its father.
THOROUGH EXAMINATIONS
Stressing the poignant increase
in the courts work, Judge Bent
ley pointed out that 1895 new
cases involving parental heart
break were brought before the
court last year and that of these
approximately 500 were cases of
children whose mothers were
forced to abandon them.
Disclosing how deeply the
courts investigators delve into
the background OF children ar.
raigned before her, the Judge
pointed out that when a case is
brought before her she knows
pSychia trio examination has
been made; that the child's
physical condition has been ex-
amined thoroughly, and that its
entire background has been com.
pletely explored.
AS q result CT this inveStiRa-
ton, she also revealed that one
fourth Of the children get psy-
chiatric examinations and that
one-half Of them need this ex-
pert service.
LAUDS JUDGE
In introducing Judge Bentley.
Mrs. Gerald Flood, president
said she was proud to present
a woman who gained che Of the
highest posts her sex could hope
to attain without benefit of DO
Htical patronage. Mrs. Flood
added: Women are proud Of
another woman who can achieve
high positions on the basis of
her own ability. We are proud
of Judge Bentley who so clearly
gained her appointment on the
basis Of education, experience
and complete fitness for the
jcb."
Looking extremely smart and
svelte, Judge Bentley was attired
in q black crepe, Street-length
frock, with high military neck

Improvements and refinementS
in both bodies and chassis, smooth
performance by the V-8 motor Of
125 horsepower, refinement Of
lines and a new development in
gear shifting feature the cars.
Leading this list Of advances Is
the new gear shift, the lever Of
which has been moved from the
floor to the steering column. A
chief advantage Of the application
is said to be that it involves no
problem Of "relearning to shift. :"
Although the sheet metal is en-.
tirely new for the five LaSalle
bodieS-two-paSsenger coupe, con-
vertible coupe, five-paSSenger tour
ing coupe, five.passenger sedan
and convertible Sedan-the prin-
cipal revision noticeable to the
eye will be at the front, with the
more massive grille, wider, higher
catwalkS between the hood and
tenders and the new location for
the air-Streamed headlampS.
The bodies proper, from the
trunks to the headroom, are of
generous proportions.
The hood is Of the alligator
type" hinged parallel with the
windshield. It is raised by lifting
the radiator ornament. The wider
grille not alone lends itself to the
style motif Of the hood but also
increases the radiator cooling area
by 10 square inches.
The 322 cubic inch V.type, eight
cylinder motor Is continued with
numerous refinements.
Hydraulic brakes. self f-Iubricating
rear spring inserts, the unisteel
bodies are again specified. Carbu-
retion has been improved by an air.
conditioned metering jet. Genera.
tor drive belts have been given in
creased durability by larger pulleys
while at the same time the driven
(camshaft) timing sprocket now
has stub teeth to reduce chain
wear.
Minor changes in LaSalle frames
add to rigidity. Crosstype steering
Is continued along with the indi-
vidual suspension Of front wheels.
The hypoid rear axle that proved
so successful on the 1897 models
will be continued.

PONTIACS RETAIN
SILVER STREAK
STYLE FOR 1888
Many Refinements in
New Models

Changes and refinementS In ap'
pearance and body interiors mark
the 1888 Pontiac six and eight
now on display at the Auto Show
The new line Of SKIES and eights
retain the distinctive badge Of
"silver Streak" in refined form.
The Silver Streak chrome grille,
sweeping up over the radiator and
hood, has characterized every
model since the 1885 series.
The featured mechanical devel.
opment is the new remote gear
shift called the safety shift gear
control" It is optional on both
six and eight at slight extra cost
and is entirely mechanical in op'
Grafton.
SHORT SHIFT LEVER
The new unit consists Of a short
shift lever, located under the steer
ing wheel and parallel with the
steering column. Shift positions
are the same as though the con-
ventional shift lever were bent to
the right or the left and the trans
mission were laid on its side, ex-
cept that the horizontal shaft
through neutral becomes vertical.
Outstanding developments in
clude the restyled front end, en-
larged generator for every cleo
tricaI need, relocation Of the bat
terry beneath the hood for easier
accessibility, larger water pump,
addition Of q clutch helper spring,
improved silent syncro-mesh trans
mission and complete new body
interiors.
SAME BODY TYPES
The same body types are avail
able on both six and eight cylin-
der chassis: Three-paSsenger stand
ard coupe, fivepaSsenger sport
coupe and cabriolet, Six-passenger
two-door and fourdoor sedans,
two-door and four-door touring
sedans and convertible phaeton.
Curb weight Of the four-door sc.
dan is S,415 pounds on the six and
1855 on the eight.
With the six built on a 11Tinch
wheelbase and the eight on 122, the
two chassis are powered by motors
delivering as and 100 horsepower,
respectively.
Interiors are wholly new, as are
exterior colorS and combinations.
Upholstery hardware and instru-
ment panels are new. The roll on
the front seat back gives the i'm

LESSER CHANGES
Among lesser changes are the ad-
dition Of hardened7steel bushings
and dirt seals to the knee-action
unit, raised pitman arm for greater
road clearance, slight carburetor
changes to provide uniform &C
celeration throughout the speed
range, improved water pump, i'm
proved piStons on the six, new
trunk-door holdings, and new
bumper ornaments and guards. In
the accessory group, the heater,

3 new HUDSON
LUXURIOUS CARS

Three new Hudsons for 1888
said to be the roomiest and most
luxurious cars ever announced by
that company are on view at the
auto show.
The complete 1888 line consists
of an eight-cylinder car made on
both 129 and 122.inch wheelbases,
a six on 122-inch wheelbase, fea-
turing the new "Six Star" engine,
and the new Hudson Terraplane
on 1l7-inch wheelbase.
On these three chassis are
placed what company officials call
the roomiest bodies it has ever
built, continuing the 55-inch front
compartment width, a feature Of
1897, and adding two inches more
Of interior body length by a re-
design Of the front compartment.
These two inches are used to pro-
vide additional leg room in the
rear compartment while retaining
the same dimensions in the front
as previously.
with the exception Of the con-
vertible models, all are Of steel
construction-floor, sides, front,
back and roof-wfth body and
chassis united as q single solid
structure. -
An entirely new treatment Of the
front grille changes the appear
ance and lines Of all three new
types. In the skies and eightS, the
design gives accent to the hori-
zontal treatment OF the rounded
louvres, broadly edged in chrom.
ium, meeting a narrow center
vertical band of chrome EN-.
boSSing.
CHROME ON FRONTS
In the new Hudson TelTaplane,
both on the de luxe and super
models, the front end is dominated
by q broad, vertical center sweep
of solid chromium flaring at the
top and curving over the hood to
frame the name plate, the whole
spirit Of the design is vertical, re-
lieved, yet emphasized, by narrow
horizontal louvres.
Optional equipment on all mod
els, and proved by over billion
miles Of owner-driving, the new
selective automatic shift transmits
sion is even more completely au-
tomato than before. Gears auto
matically ''feel" their way into en-
gagement. An automatic clutch
circuit breaker causes gears to
shift at exactly the proper instant
when the clutch is disengaged,
providing a smoother shift and
automatically compensating for
any possible wear on the clutch
facing.

"What?" she exclaimed. mot yet

Just going to change, Rio. But
I'll not be with you at the feast.

hunt, might enjoy themselves
more if they were free from the
restraint imposed by feminine So
ciety.
But Rio must have OWNED this.

little sad to think that none OF
the Keith blood would ever oc-
cupy that chair again.
Cutting in on her reflections
came the long,, high whistle that
announced the approach of the
Maid expected in from Wrangell
this afternoon. Denny, as was her
custom, caught up the marine
glasses and ran out on the terrace
to watch Bourne make a landing.
AS usual he was bringing his
craft in at top speed, exhausts
shooting vapor, stern trailing a
boiling wake. She listed to the
pull of her hard-over rudder,
swung in a sharp half-circle, and
charged for the dock, showing
high bow wave. At the last mo-
ment, when it seemed as if she
must dash into the face of the
foamed to a shivering stop, her
guard rail not a hands breadth
from the wharf.
Bourne's spectacular handling
of his boat was of piece with his
indolent arrogance of bearing that
drew the eye to his every move
ment. "ExhibitioniSt! Mounte-
bank!" thought Denny. Yet, as
she went back into the house to
go upstairs, her smile had in it
both amusement and admiration.
