Saxon cars will be sold in New Trier township by the Weihe Motor Sales company of Wilmette. This an- nouncement was made the first of the week by Edward H. Weihe, who added that the decision to handle Saxon cars was made only after careful investiga- tion into the merits of the different medium priced cars on the market. The Weihe Motor Sales company is a progressive concern and will exert every effort in promoting the sale of Saxons, as well as of the Haynes, in this territory. Mr. Weihe anticipates a consistent demand and has made ar- rangements for delivery accordingly. "I have been driving cars for years, and this spring, as I needed a good light car, I bought a iSaxon 'Six.' In three months I drove nine thousand miles and can truly say that out of these nine thousand miles I have had more enjoyment and pleasure than I thought possible to derive from a mo- tor car," is the statement of one Saxon purchaser. "I have not made any ad- Justments, not even the brake rods, and have not had a spark plug out in the last seven thousand miles. The way the finish on the body stood up is remarkable; it looks just like new."

A device which he claims has shown a saving of from 20 to 40 per cent in gasoline has been invented by Dr. Os- car Hayes, formerly health commis- sioner of Denver and now an acting as- sistant surgeon in the United States Navy. This is a moisture carburetor connected with the water intake and exhaust manifolds in such a way as to deliver the greatest possible amount of heat to the carburetor. The water trav- els along a tiny groove, half way around the curved surface of a rotary valve, where it meets the heated air and produces the desired moist air for the increased power. The water inlet és regulated by a needle valve which is connected with a foot control on Fords and a dash control on other cars. Water is turned on after the engine is started and must be shut off as soon as the engine is stopped. The moisture does not go through the regular carburetor, but meets the gas mixture in the intake manifold, thus tending toward perfect combustion. |-0. 0.0.0.

In August last a stock Hupmobile, 5-passenger car, left Washington, D. C. Four months later, in January, it returned, world famous. The car with its four passengers had visited the capital of every state in the Union. For four months of continuous driv- ing the Hupmobile motor received a perfect mixture of fuel and air to the cylinders for the carburetor, which has no adjustments, varying the quan- tity automatically and with absolute precision, to meet the motor's every changing needs. Whether idling noise- lessly, laboring through hub-deep mud, or roaring along at full speed, the motor responded instantly to every demand for power, speed and economy. Twenty thousand, miles--the very best of roads, the very worst, no roads at all. Mile on mile of burning sand and pitiless sun, weeks of drenching downpour, fogs, bottomless muckholes and ruts; jagged, frozen roads, bliz- zards, fender-high snow, arctic cold-- humidity and altitude, with good gaso- line and bad, the motor never failed the man at the wheel. To the Hupmobile's fame for sim- plicity must now be added this incom- parable record for endurance. This car was on exhibition at the Chicago Automobile Show in the Hup- mobile booth. 0-0 0%. THE ROAD TO HAPPINESS By Walt Mason. Before 1 bought my handsome "Haynes," I was the loneliest of swains. I wearied of the single life; I wished to have a loving wife, with her to walk along the years, to mingle hopes and smiles and tears, with her to work and rest and sup--but all the damsels passed me up. I'd ask the girls to take a walk, with me around a village bloek, or ramble | down a country lane, and such re- quests gave them a pain. Their win- ning smiles they promptly lost; they said that walking was a frost, and only tinhorn sports would think of things so badly on the blink. When I felt rich I'd hire a hoss and rig that was a total loss, invite a girl to take a ride, and then ask her to | be my bride. Alas, she always turned me down, and said, with cold, forbid- ding frown, that she would never wed a skate who wasn't strictly up to date. "You shouldn't try a girl to spark, with this old plug from Noah's ark," | the girl would say, with burning cheek: "You ought to know your rig's a freak." When thirty maids had talked that way, I said, "I'll palsied be and gray, the seams of age will score my brow, | betore I lariat a frau, unless new | methods I adopt--the old time plans | are herewith dropped. I have a bundle | I saved it for a rainy day, | but rainy weather is afar--I'll take my | roll and buy a car." The banker told me I had brains. | "Just take your wad and buy a] 'Haynes', " the banker said, "and life | will be a thing that fairly reeks with glee." | I bought a Haynes and now the girls, those lovely maids with sunny | curls, look on me with admiring eyes, and half a score of them will rise, when I lift up my hand and say, "Who wants to go with me today?" And when I pop the question next, | I do not think that I'll be vexed, by maiden saying in my ear, "I'll always | be your sister, dear." : EE Re Ee TO HOLD BOY SCOUT INSTITUTE | Plans for a Boy Scout institute in | Chicago, May 26, 27 and 29, were made | Saturday in the Hotel La Salle by: the Boy Scout executives and Lorne | Webster Barclay, director of the na- tional department of education.

BURNING UP YELLOWSTONE New Ford Car Sets Record in Run from Twin Cities to Aberdeen; 337 Miles with 16 Gallons of Gas. A new record has recently been made for the distance from Minne- apolis-to Aberdeen, S. D., 337 miles, over the new 'Yellowstone Trail. Eleven hours and thirty minutes was the running time. It seems that Ned Spaulding, of the Spaulding Auto Co., Aberdeen, S. D., had sold a Ford Sedan to J. P. Han- ley, local agent of the Great Northern R. R. The car was delivered to the buyer in Minneapolis, from the local Ford assembly plant, and it was ar- ranged that Mr. Spaulding should drive his customer home. The average speed for the entire trip was 2914 miles per hour, and six- teen gallons of gasoline were used, an average of 21 miles to the gallon. At one town enroute the travelers ran two miles off their course. Anyway, it was the fastest time which has been made by a motor car between the two cities, and is evidence that the vital Ford quality of perform- ance is just as active in the handsome, comfortably fitted sedan as it is in the more numerous open models. Inci- dentally, this record-making run was made without the least mechanical trouble. hE Ee NEW FEATURE OF OVERLAND Willys-Overland cars this year have the .gasoline tank at the rear, made possible through the vacuum feed sys- tem. Besides giving better distribu- tion of weight, there is the added ad- vantage of convenience in filling. Pas- sengers need never be disturbed to permit filling of the tank, nor sub- jected to the annoyance of gasoline fumes. 2 0-0-0 §. DRIVER GETS ELBOW ROOM Down the street the other day there bhreezed one of the winter top type of cars in which the driver had neatly solved the problem of getting room for his left arm. If he had kept the glass pane in it, woudn't have left room for him to use his left arm at all. So he took half the pane out and substituted for it a soft leather panel. He could poke his elbow into this and have plenty of leeway. = EE Ee Spelling contests are being held in many places, but it is not reported that any college students took prizes.
