SATURDAY EVENING,
Prosperity Evident in
Motor Car Industry
If ther« was any doubt as to the
oontlnued or return of prosperity—
whichever you prefer to call It—a
visit to Lapsing, and especially to that
part of the Michigan city which de
pend* for its sustenance on the big
Reo automobile plants, would dispel
It
The Reo plants already cover 26
[ acres of ground, and thought addl
[ tions are being made on all side* of
that SS aero*. As a matter of fact they
are being made on three aides— the
other aide of the street fronting on
the main thoroughfare.
Those who have passed through
Lansing on the Michigan Central will
remember the familiar testing track
between the Reo main building and
the railroad. That track was at one
time one of the show features of the
city, but the system of testing automo
biles has changed, and during tho past
two years It has been used mostly for
a baseball park. On that piece of
ground Is now being greeted an Im
portant addition to the Reo machine
shop.
At the other end of the Reo factory,
and fronting In the same street, still
another big addition is being built,
this time to add to the assembling de
partment, body building, body trim
ming, painting, etc. For as every
one knows (having read In Reo ads),
Reo builds every part of their auto
mobile, from the raw materials to the
last touch of equipment.
And If this Is not sufficient to prove
the wonderfully prosperous condition
that exists and the wonderful growth
of the Reo, a tour around the factory
to the rear discloses still greater oper
ations under way.
Here a tract of 4 H acres—not floor
sf>ace, but ground space mind you—
shows a feverish activity. A great
gang of men busy breaking ground
and starting foundations for a mam
moth plant that will cover thlß 4H
acres, which will be utilized for the
manufacture of Reo Motor trucks.
That the motor truck has finally come
Into its own with a vengeance Is borne
in upon one when he looks upon this
vast expanse of ground and the gangs
of men that are rushing work on this
big plant.
"We are more than 200 trucks be
hind orders at this moment," saysi
Sales Manager Rueshcaw, "and while
that does not sound big when speak
ing of touring cars. It does seem so
[when applied to trucks.

Fifty per cent, oversise in all vital parts and no skimping

\ im(I A ——
] Unexcelled roads, attractive scenery,
i the old memories that still permeate
l the Interesting towns, along the route,
I and last, but not least, the thoroughly
| satisfactory hotel accommodations,
I combine to render a trip over Cape
l Cod one of the most enjoyable that
I could be taken. Our route covers less
| than 300 miles from Providence, the
j suggested starting point, to the finish
| of the trip at Boston,
j Having made the pleasant citv of
i Providence. R. 1., the logical night's
stopping place, an early start is sug
; gested in order to reach Fairhaven for
lunch. We cross over to East Provi
dence. the route passing through
Sekonk. Barneyvllle and Swansea Cen
ter and crossing the long bridge over
the Taunton river to Fall river
The exit from Fall river leads along
the causeway across Watuppa Pond to
vVestport Factory and New Bedford,
and over the bridge to Fairhaven. a
handsome residential town thirty-five
IS v. Prov l<lence, and notable as
{ the birthplace of the late H. H. Rogers.
I During his lifetime, Mr. Rogers pre
[ sented several beautiful buildings to
I his home town, including the very fine
| Unitarian Church.
For the next twenty miles the route
follows the famous Buzzards Bay coast
and affords many engaging glimpses
of the water and some splendid marine
views across the Bay. Marlon is only
one of the many charming and allur
ing summer resorts we pass through as
we circle the bay to the town of Buz
zards Bay, from which the new Cape
Cod Canal cuts across the Isthmus to
Sagamore.
Crossing the canal by the fine, new
bridge, the route passes near "Gray
Gables," the seaside home of the late
President Cleveland, and runs south
the coast through Monument
Beach and North Falmouth to Fal
mouth. This spot, thirty-nine miles
from Fairhaven and seventy-four miles
from Providence, is an ideal stopping
place and the center for several de
lightful short trips and excursions.
Eastward from Falmouth the route
follows closely the southern coast of
the Cape and passes in turn the queerly
named villages. Waquolt, Quashnet and
Santult. whence a pretty run may be
made to Cotuit and back by Bay View
Road to Marston's Mills. Ostervllle,
Centerville. a pleasant resort, and
Craigvllle are passed to Hyannis and
the road traverses a succession of in
teresting seaside villages and open
hreezy country to Chatham, the most
easterly Doint on the route.
Hereafter the road runs north by
Pleasant Pay to Orleans, whence the
narrow, last strip of the Cape is tra
versed over a perfect road through
Eastham and Brook Village to Well
fleet. near which is erected one of the
most powerful "wireless" stations in
Uie world. A mileage of sixty-one from
Falmouth suggests this snot as the
night's stop, leaving for the next day
a run of twenty-nine miles to the most
"ortherly point on tho Cape, throurh
the rural villages of Truro and North
Truro, arriving in time for lunch at
historic ProvlncetowTi
The afternoon- may be pleasantlv
spent wandering over this quaint old
town, which was the first landing plac»
of the Pilgrim fathers on this conti
nent. A wonderful view of the Cape is
to be had from the top of the Pilgrim
Tower, which was erected a few vears
ago to commemorate the slenlng of the
j compact on board the "Mayflower/*
which provided the form of govern
ment for the new colony.
The gray-haired gua'rdian of the
! tower, with a reverence one might ex
> pect of the attendants at one of the
great cathedrals In Europe, points out
the places of Interest as the landscape
t Is spread like a may before one's eyes.
Leaving Provlncetown, return to
i Wellfleet and thence to Orleans where
| a right turn leads along the north
' coast of the Cape. The road, rlrclinp
; the southern shore of the splendid bay
| runs through East Brewster. Brewster
and Dennis, finely located on the bluffs
! overlooking the broad waters of Cape
. Cod Bay. to Yarmouth. Cumniaouid and
j Barnstable. After passing Sandwich
; the canal Is crossed In a northerly di
rection at Sacamore and the road con
] tin ues through Manomet to that city of
historic memories. Plymouth, sixty-five
| miles from Wellfleet.
. After the run over Cape Cod, Ply
, mouth would provide a pleasant resting
J place for several days with much of
Interest to see, including Plymouth
Rock, should the motorist have suf
j ficent time at his command.
After leaving Plymouth, the route
(traverses Kingston. Duxbury, Marsh-'
! field and Scltuate Center. At Cohasset,
a pleasant side run may be made to
j Nantasket and along the narrow isth
j mus to Hull, returning to the main
( route at Hingham. From Hlngham the
| picturesque south shore of Boston Bay
|is followed and the city entered
through Its suburbs. Qulncy, East Mil

Overland in An Overland
in Place of on a Broncho
William F. Cody, known the world
. over as "Buffalo Bill," has deserted
the broncho for the automobile. He re
cently purchased an Overland touring
car and is now seldom seen except
at the wheel of his favorite machine.
He frequently uses the car for
jumps from town to town when
traveling- with the Wild West Show,
of whtch he is the leader.
In referring to his love for motor
ing, the famous scout draws an in
teresting comparison between the
Overland "Six" and the old overland
stage, which is now one of the proper
ties of his show, and which was fin
ished in 1865 and put in service be
tween Dodge City, Kansas, and St.
Joe, Missouri.
"Fifty years ago," he states, "I
acted as sort of advance scout for this
stage. My duty was to keep a sharp
look-out for the Indians and bad men
of that time. The best speed we ever
made was seven miles a.n hour and
our total Journey in a day's travel
never exceeded 60 miles.
"Today," he continued, "I can hop
into my Overland car and with good
roads ahead and the speed officers out
of sight, I'll cover the distance in an
hour. Times certainly have changed,
l»Jt they have changed for better
things."
New Shock Absorbers
Featured For Ford Cars
The Hassler shock absorber Is being
Introduced in this territory by L. M.
Barrett, who has opened headquarters
at the Central Garage, 334 Chestnut
street. The main advantages claimed
for this shock absorber, among other
things, are four springs, larger than
on other devices, for Ford cars, yet
have softness and ease of action. The
double-acting lever construction keeps
down the "toss" or "upthrow" and pre
vents the "whipping about" and side
sway of the car on an undulating road.
These absorbers may be applied in a
few hours by anyone familiar with
automobiles. They ar" so constructed
that no cutting or drilling is neces
sary.
Despite excessive war duties, motor
cars are enjoying a record sale In
Canada, according to W. S. Smith,
of the Automobile & Supply Com
pany, Toronto dealers for Dodge
Brothers. "American automobiles
wer assessed 35 per cent, duty pre
vious to the European war," saya Mr.
Smith, "but Canadian buyers are now
required to pay 42 1 ,4 per cent. duty.
In the face of this tremendous excess
cost, our sales have actually Increased
since the start of the war. Dodge
Brothers' cars at $l,lOO In Canada
have ten buyers for every single car
that we can secure. Dealers In every
section of the Dominion report the
same excellent condition of business.
The prosperity Is due in great meas
ure to the large war orders placed
with Canadian firms, but crops have
also been heavy this year, and the
farmer is again proving our one best
customer."
