Between 150 and 200 women soon will be driving military motor cars behind the front in France. Women have tried since the begin- ning of the war to enlist in the auto- mobile service. The Club Feminin Automobile was the center of this group, and it had secured the signa- tures of several hundred of the thou- sand women in Paris who hold licenses to drive motor cars. The passive resistance of the different war bureaus held them back until now. The women are obliged to enlist for three months and to agree to sub- mit scrupulously to military rules and discipline. They will in the be- ginning replace motor ambulance drivers in the foreign sanitary sec- tions who are transferred to other services. Later on they may re- place men in other automobile sec- tions. EE Ey TENTOBED FEATURED AT WINNETKA MOTOR ROOMS The Winnetka Motor company is featuring the Tentobed at their local salesrooms this week. The Tento- bed is a tent and a bed complete in itself, for tourists, campers, or for any purpose where it is necessary or desirable to sleep out of doors. No stakes, ropes nor poles are re- quired, and the makers guarantee it as positively mosquito and insect proof. The outfit folds up so com- pactly that two could easily be placed on the running board of any auto- mobile, giving the motorist complete independence of hotels.

An interesting and profitable tip that every motorist should take, but very few think of, is a trip under the car to see the conditions of things there. Inspect brake connections to see if there are any which do not get attention when the car is oiled. See if they are wearing out or weaken- ing. Sometimes one finds grease cups that have been neglected for a long time. Also inspect the universal joint to see if it is'loosening up or needs grease.

W. Seiglaff, local Willys-Overland deal- er, is the fact that the medium priced motor car comes under the classifica- tion of utilities, instead of luxuries. He refers to the Overland Country Club as a fitting example of the mod- ern utility car. "Scarcely a day passes," said Mr. Seiglaff, "that some new owner does not come in and tell us of the busi- ness advantages of a car, which he never dreamed existed until he had driven his own automobile. "A couple of months ago I sold a Country Club model to a man who said he was buying the car principal- ly for his wife. She wanted a light car, one which was easy to handle and which had a lot of style. Per- sonally, he didn't care much what it was like, as long as it suited her. Yes- terday, he came in and placed an or- der for another one--'for his wife, he added. When I 'asked him what was wrong with the car that he bought for his wife a couple of months ago, he smiled, looked just a little bit sheepish and replied that his wife hadn't had her hands on the steering wheel since the first week-- he had been using it all of the time himself. "'Why, say," he exclaimed, 'that car proved itself to be the best hired man I ever had. It has not only saved about a couple of hours a day for me, in going to and coming from my office, but it has enabled me to personally take care of the best little Liberty garden out in the suburbs; to take a little run out to the golf links late in the afternoon, now and then; and to see from one to five prospects more in a day now than I did in a day and half when I had to depend on street cars. That is why my wife hasn't had a chance to use the car. I've been keeping it going nearly every minute. "That man was an insurance agent. There are hundreds of ether men in the same business who would testify just as enthusiastically concerning the utility advantages of the motor car. Then there are the doctors, the real estate men, the lawyers, the merchants and, in fact, men in every line of endeavor who, having once owned an automobile, find that they cannot get along without one."
