The offi ! cers of the State government are re quested to specify and purchase at all j times "the products of the United ! States of America" and local govem j ments, school heads and public and private institutions and individuals i to do the same. | The resolution also requests news- J papers to encourage buying of Amer ican products. I The measure was laid over for print- See the Chassis of \ KISSEL | KAR at the Auto Show in Kelker St Its mechanical perfeotion will apeal to everv judge of motor ! car value. Built in a thoroughly modern factory by an efficient or ganization that is sound as Gibraltar. It manufactures its own motors, axles, clutches, bodies and many other of the parts that i enter into the construction of Kissel Kars. The all-year Kissel Kar with the attachable sedan top is attractive in design and includes every late improvement, every article of equipment and point of refinement. To the buyer who wants in his car personality as well as beauty I individuality as well as convenience, exclusiveness as well as com fort. In fact, if he seeks at a price below the average a car of better I ban the average quality, the Kisse! Kars fill the bill. We believe that a visit to the show and an unbiased comparison will make these facts obvious. Tlie line consists of three pleasure ear models—BO "Six* at $3150: "Six" at 92350: 30 "Four" at $1450.

Hi was fined $23. Another milk case that is scheduled is the prosecution against Harvey S. Bomberger and a Palmyra farmer, John Funk. Funk's farm, it is charg ed, had been quarantined by the State for foot and mouth disease and a re quirement of the regulations is that nothing shall be taken off the farm. The farmer, however, through the urg ing of Bomberger, it is alleged, sent soine of the milk from his dairy to Dr. George R. Moffitt, city bacteriolo gist, to be tested. The milk was foun-3 to be pure but the fact th'at the pro duct had been taken from a quarantin ed farm caused the arrest of Bom berger and Funk. Dodge Brothers Had Every Confidence in the Future Back of the Interesting manner in which Dodge Brothers introduced their new car to the public and entered the lists as full-fledged automobile manu facturers, Is a story of unlimited l'aith In the future of the automobile indus try that has seldom had a parallel. Just ten years ago Dodge Brothers received an order from one of the pioneer Detroit companies, then tast ing Its first measure of success, for 3,000 transmission sets, including gears completely assembled. This was the first really large order placed with a parts manufacturer in the his tory of the industry. The factory of these two master-mechanics of that daj was ,a one-story affair covering less than an acre of floor space, and 200 men were employed. With the profits from this and other orders of rapidly increasing sire, the small parts manufacturers decided to expand. More room was required and larger quarters were secured. In 1918 Dodge Brothers' factory consisted of Hose to twenty acres of floor space, and the vital parts for over 200,000 motor cars were turned out within twelve months. And the business grew to a point where it involved contracts amounting to a mil lion and a half dollars per month. To abandon a profitable enterprise of these proportions to embark as manu facturers of an automobile to be sold under their own name, called for con fidence and a belief in the future of the automobile industry that has sel dom been equalled in any line of en deavor. Before any part of the pub lic were acquainted with their inten tions, Dodge Brothers issued orders for a building 1,000 feet long and four stories high. They knew that to suc cessfully market a new motor-car pro duction in quantities was absolutely necessary. So a building was erected, big enough, as one architect described 1 it, "to assemble all the motor cars made in America." The next year of additional floor space for further parts production, was needed. Again the architects were called in. orders were issued, and another building, 400 feet long, 77 feet wide, and four stories high, is now nearing completion. Here then is an investment close to two millions in buildings alone, made before a single car was turned out. Another half million dollars' worth of machinery has been added without disturbing the work-a-day functions of the organisation. Seen and Overheard at Arena Auto Show William C. Robinson & Son Co. have a complete exhibit of oils in the various grades required for automo bile purposes. This exhibit is in charge of Don Miller, assisted by T. C. W. Hobbs. The City Auto Supply Company Is showing a Ford cowl dash, Stewart horn .sHalladay shock-absorbers, San ford tire pumps that apply to Buick, Maxwell, Overland, Dodge Brothers and Ford motor care. An exhibition of Swiss ivory nov elties is of interest because of the beautiful and delicately carved ar ticles that can be made from ivory. Pennsylvania Woman Suffrage As sociation believe in advertising their cause, as is evidenced by the abund ance of literature that is there for the enlightenment of those who are undecided or indifferent regarding the right of women to vote. Frank B. Bosch is there as usual with arguments and facts innumer able regarding the merits of Miller's. These tires are there to back up his assertions and a varied assortment of Miller tire sundries and other useful small articles for the motorist. Re treads from the Sterling Auto Tire Company are shown as examples of tire repairing. The Keystone Grease in the trans mission case is another familiar fea ture of local shows. E. C. Huhn is in charge, assisted by J. H. Wade. The first sale of the show was report ed by Jlr. Huhn, not a can, but a whole barrel of greaae. The "One-in-One" compression proof piston rings are being demon strated by J. G. Haas, of the Square Deal Auto Supply. Three separate rings are so constructed and ground that they may expand or contract and be replaced separately. The Saxon door prize was all primped up with silk ribbons and is inspected and admired by all who pass down the aisle. Wonderful little mechanical con traptions that add to the efficiency of the car or convenience of those who ride are objects of interest at almost every exhibit. H. H. Beeman, factory representa tive for the Overland Company, is at the Redmond exhibit, and Albert W. Straub is assisting in the demonstra tion of the Overland and Chandler models. "It's Insurance" Essick and his Aetna is again on the job reminding the motorist as to the advisability of preparing for posible emergency. The exhibit is In charge of W. S. Hoover, assisted by Joseph B. Met/.gar and Oscar Cohen. You can't miss the Herff-Brooks exhibit. All you have to do is to look for the cars in the gayest of colors. A six-cylinder roadster in a beautiful red and a six touring in light green is a magnet for all who are not color-blind. Will they sell? James Kipp says that, not only these, but several others of the same kind arc sold now. A lot of people prefer to get something different from the usual standard colors. The chassis of the new "25" just being introduced as a new model Is featured at this display. Seeing the wheels go round. There is a certain fascination in seeing something moving steadily and quiet ly. The Hudson Six operated by elec tric motor attracts the attention be cause of this feature as well as be-: cause of its beauty of body lines. Mr. Dill has two checks as evidence suffi cient that two Republic trucks are among the sales recorded. The Cadillac cut-out chassis is the attraction at the Crispen Motor Car Company display. This chassis, with Its white enamel plate ghiss and elec tric lights, has been Inspected !by hundreds of thousands of people in various sections of the country. W. H. Lar«e. Jr., and C. B. Chandler came here from Boston to demonstrate the mechanical workings of the new Eight, and from here the chassis will no doubt be returned to the factory, as this Is the last show on their sched ule to date. Union Sales Company has an inter esting demonstration of the efficiency of the Union self-sealing inner tube. The same tire that was stabbed on Thanksgiving Day and went through that run without becoming flat is being used. Two hundred and fifty holes were In the tire before being placed on exhibit at this show. A large steel awl is driven Into the tire every few moments to show how the air escapes for a few seconds and then stops as the puncture becomes scaled. The one guessing the nearest to the number of punctures made during the show will be awarded one of the self-sealing inner tubes on the closing night of the show. Think of the comfort! You can do your work fire, you do not need to waste your strength, and you can get done in half the usual time, no matter what the work, washing, scrubbing or housecleaning. You need it—you'll like it. Ffcls-Soap Powdlcr. The newest and best.
