Movie Actors Use Motor Cars For Light Projectors Night motion photography in the ' most inaccessible places, those places where artificial light has heretofore been unknown, has been made pos laible by means of an independent. ] traveling powor plant, the fruit of the fertile brain of Romaine Fielding, erstwhile Lubin star and now feature director of the Lubin Arizona Com pany. with headquarters in Phoenix. Aril That this portable plant made out of one of Fielding's big Mitchell mo tor cars, will be found invaluable for field work where It is impracticable to run wires for miles in order to get night photography, is the belief of I Mr. Fielding. Not only that, but he has completed arrangements to trans port his entire company and a host of "properties" to Norther*! Arizona, where this Fall he expects to stage pictures in the Grand Canyon, and by j means of the light from his portable plant, to delve Into the depths of the 1 caverns of the great crevass and to • utilize for his purpose the dark re cesses, caves and trails. It will be ' the first time where the canyon has actually been employed a» a stage for | the pictured drama. The outfit, besides providing equip i ment for running wires, is also equip ped with a powerful twelve-Inch navy searchlight of the projector type. This jis mounted on the seat beside the driver and may be operated either while the car is moving or standing ! still. The capacity of the searchlight ' is 4,500,000 candlepowfr and when in ; operation requires 25 per cent, of the full power of the engine. The first big picture in which the plant will be thoroughly tested will 'be "The Great Divide." This will be one of the biggest features ever at tempted. A part of it will be taken 1 in and around I'hoenix and the re mainder in the neighborhood of the j Grand Canyon, using that wonderful i place for backgrounds. It will be a | twelve-reel drama with Henry Miller i and Margaret Anglin in the leading , roles. Frances Starr. Blanche Bates, ' Billy Burke. Frances McHenry, Adelc ' Blood, Lillian Kemble and others are j on the list of notables to appear in the I Fielding Lubin pictures, i The entire fleet is composed of Mit | chell Touring Cars and in addition i Mr. F.'o'ding whiles away his sparo | hours at the wheel of a Mitchell Six. King Eight Goes 800 Miles on High Gear I For the second time within a fort night an eight-cylinder King has ne gotiaed over 800 miles in California ] "on the Hi." With the gear box seal | ed by Mayor Sebastian of Los Angeles. Cal., a King eight swept from the Mexican boundary on the south to the shadows of the historic Santa Bar bara mission on the north, the waves of Venice by the sea on the west to the heights of Mount Arrowhead on the east. The tour was held under the auspices of the Automobile Club of Southern California, covered SOO miles going over such famous mountain passes as the Torrev Pines Grade. Conejo Grade, Arrowhead Mountain. Mount Rubi doux. Lookout Mountain and the Poway Grade. The previous tour was held in Northern California, a distance of 900 miles around San Francisco. The Southern California tour abso lutely demonstrated the advancement in motor car design to-day proving conclusively flexibility, power and re liability in the eight-cylinder produc tion of motor cars. Not only did the car have to tra\ „>1 over steep mountain grades and through sands, but It also had to plough through some rough road detours due to highway improvements. It also had to pass through city traffic in Los Angeles and the fair crowds at the San Piego Exposition. Every pre , caution was taken to have the tour ! properly conducted. The city and country sealers of weights and tneas ; ures inspected the seals at the start : and finish. In some cases where the car had to back up It had to be pushed i backwards because the reverse gear was of no use. there being no shifting : lever in the control set. The official report shows that the i King on this test consumed 14 5-14 I miles to a gallon of gasolene. A good ly portion of the trip was conducted at an average speed of forty miles an I hour, when the going was good. The i feature was held by C. A. English, of the English Motor Car Company, Los Angeles, Southern California King dis tributors. Prominent Automobile Engineer to Speak in City Through the courtesy of the Pack- I ard Motor Car Company of Detroit, j the services of their Chief Engineer, ! Mr. O. E. Hunt, has been secured to i give an illustrated lecture on the sub i iect "How Many Cylinders" before the i Engineers' Society of Pennsylvania on Friday, October 15th. The Engineers' Society has invited \ the Motor Club of Harrisburg and ' many prominent men of this vicinity as guests for the evening. Mr. Hunt is very well known in the automobile business and has selected a subject which at the present time is : of unusual interest to all automobile owners, particularly In view of the ; fact that his latest efforts have been ; directed in deslamlng the new type of automohile motor, namelv, the "Twin Six." | | Automobiles 5 See Howry's for auto truck S £ bodies; we build them to please ? / you.

Dickson, gen | oral manager of the National Motor ■ Vehicle Company. ! "With all the fond relatives ready to suggest names for the baby. It often requires clever parental diplomacy to choose the name that will suit every one best. At the National factory everyone who lias had a directing hand . in producing the new model Is asked •to offer suggestions for a name, the i idea being to get a name that will tit I the car. and. if possible, describe some i particular quality that makes the new ! model different. It certainly was an i apt idea when our six and twelve-cylln- I der cars were named Highway. No I name could better describe their physl ! cal attributes nor be more suitable to I be associated with the high prestige that the name National has eetablish i ed." Asked whether he thought a name had any Importance as a selling asset, 1 Mr. Dickson replied: "It all depends ,on the car. The name Highway cer tainly is proving a big asset for us in making sales of these new twelve and six-cylinder cars. As one recent pur chaser remarked, "Highway perfectly describes that quality I always knew j National cars had but which 1 never ! could And words to express." They | surely are the cars of the national Highways." continued Dickson, "the cars you think of as able for the task iof crossing the continent at a mo l ment's notice yet, even blase city I motorists, whose touring requirements I seldom exceed a jaunt, to some nearby I country club, are equally as enthusi i astic about National Highway Twelves, and since as are those who buy a car for all they possibly can get out of it." I According to Mr. Dickson. National s sales are very near the high water mark at the present moment, which he believes Indicates that to-day, more than any time before discriminating j buyers want good cars that Insure them something more than a car of average ' reputation can give. Prices on Hupmobiles Will Not Be Increased "Hupmoblle prices will not be in creased above our original announce ! nent for the 1916 selling season." ac- I cording to a statement just made by ! President J. Walter Drake, of the Hupp Moto Car Co. | "A. fhough the cost of the raw ma ' terial has greatly increased and the demand for motor cars Is greater than the supply, the Hupp company will | keep faith with the public and keep [ to our advertised prices. ( "We might readily take advantage of , the situation and increase our prices inasmuch as we are over 2,000 cars be j hind orders right now, a situation which has been created without any | pressure by our sales department. So , great is the demand for our Model 'N' that an increase of $150,000 or $200,000 I would make no material difference in . our sales. I "But above everything else we will | maintain Hupmoblle reputation. The Hupp Motor Car Co. was founded and I has grown by the aid of that Hupmo- I bile reputation and we pride in it more I than money which might be made by ! taking advantage of a peculiar trade | opposition. We have been advised by many to Increase our prices but. rumors to the contrary, I wish to state that no change is to be made. Our 1916 selling: season prices were made and publicly announced and it would be unfair to the public to increase them even in fact of the wonderful demand. "We sincerely believe that we have the best four-cylinder car ever produced for anywhere near the SI,OOO class and we know it is to be better than many of the sixes selling: at higher prices to day. "EtKhts and especially twelves are still in the experimental stage and manufacturers cannot always determine the material and the price. "The present situation has proven beyond a doubt that for the average owner the four is the most logical car. even if other types may please the more luxurious." Cadillac's Largest Enclosed Car Year That the enclosed type of motor car is steadily gaining each year in public favor is demonstrated in the Fall busi ness of the Cadillac Motor Car Com pany. Last year this company shipped a greater number of its closed body cars than ever before, and orders now on hand indicate that this season's business will eclipse all past records by a substantial margin. Among the reasons attributed by | Sales Manager Howard for the heavy increase is the fact that people are coming to appreciate more and more , the great comfort to be derived from ; a type of car that is especially adapted for service every day in the year. He said further, that the eight cylinder engine was also responsible to some extent because it runs so smoothly that the dull, heavy rumble associated with enclosed types of cars becomes a negligible factor in the Cadillac. The Cadillac line includes four en closed body types the standard limousine and the Berlin, each of seven-passenger capacity: the victoria, which accommodates three, and the brougham, seating seven. The brougham is a particularly in teresting model. It has one compart ment with two doors on each side, in stead of the usual single entrance that characterizes the one-compartment type in general. The Individual front seats have a passageway between, so that passengers may exchange seats without leaving the car. Having four doors, entrance and exit to and from the car is facilitated for all the pas sengers. The auxiliary seats fold into I the backs of the front seats when not in use, leaving the rear part of the car unobstructed. In the victoria, the top. which is of long-grain, bright-finish leather, can be laid back, and the window sashes lowered into the door panels, con verting the car into a smart roadster. Overland Establishes New Shipping Record A new shipping record was estab lished by The Willys-Overland Com pany on September 29 when 627 cars left the factory. Never before In the history of the big Toledo concern has it been able to reach this high water mark In daily production. During the r>ast four months the production of the Overland factory has grown tremendously. In June the shipments average*! 300 c&in a day. Be for the end August this was increased to ">OO a day. During September the shipments of Overlands again showed a marked in crease, each week in the month beirur larger than any of those preceding. In the four days from September 27 to SO inclusive 2233 cars left the big Toledo plant. On the last Wednesday of the month 627 wore shipped, a new day's record for the Overland Companv. From April 21. when the shipments of new models first began to lmvr the factory up to SeDtemher 30, th<» Ovur land had shipped 49.977 cars. During the same production period, on last vear's models shipments amounted to 21.426 cars. This was considered a nhpnomenal record r I th» tl»»--p. 1915 shows an Increase of over 18S per cent. By shipping 027 cars on September 30, the factory not only broke all form er records hut it fulfilled the predic tion made by it* president, John N Willys, last Janua-v. At that time Mr. ■Willys made public the fact that he believed that the Overland Company would Jump its production up to «C 0 cars a dav before another year bad passed. Even his closest associates considered It a hazardous statement to make as the factory at that time was producing less than 200 cars a .Jay. However, they did not know of the stupendous building- operations that Mr. Willys had in view. The Toledo plant at that time contained a.i aggre gate of 'jixty acres of floor space. This has been Inci msnl to more than eighty acres and with the completion of build ings now under way the Overland plant will have 103 acres of floor space.

Since when was Omaha second to Council Bluffs? "Another one. this time from Kan sas City, the Middle Western Metro polis: 'Just informed on reliable au thority that Wichita has received demonstrator. Where do we get off at?' "Here's one from Chicago complain ing that we have favored Cleveland, and reminding us that Cleveland JS now only fifth city in the country. "Just to show you how eager Reo dealers are to get cars and how close ly they watch things, here's a tele gram that was occasioned by the peculiar incidence of the purchaser driving his car home from Northamp ton, Mass. He passed through Syra cuse. Here's the wire we received a few minutes later: 'New Reo Six Just passed through Syracuse going west. Must be plenty of them. Why don't we get ours?" "We are shipping more than our usual number for this season of the year." says Mr. Rueschaw, "but seems as if there was no satisfying the de mand. Sometimes I despair of ever supplying it, but at that It indicates a wonderful condition in the country, when people everywhere are crying for cars." Motor Car Sales Climbing Throughout Canada "Farmer and manufacturers alike are making more money in Canada, to-day, than ever before in their his tory,' says Louis Logie. Canadian dis trict manager for the Chalmers Motor Company, who has just returned from an extensive tour of the Dominion. "An impressive Increase In the sale of motor cars has naturally followed this wave of prosperity and sales are booming in all sections of Canada. The province of Ontario alone, has taken 7.000 more cars to date than were sold up to this time last year. In the maritime provinces, sales have been 50 per cent, greater than last vear. and the increase Is also noticed in the western provinces. "When the fact is considered that the extra war tax on cars going into Canada brings the total duty up to 42 p»>r cent., the showing Is indeed a re markable one. Canada has demon strated most clearly to me, the truth of the assertion that financial strin gency is nothing but a state of mind. Were it not for the constant recruit ing and drilling of the volunteers, no one would ever know there was war in the air. Business is going on with greater vigor than during the past five vears. Crop reports from the eastern and western sections alike, are the most favorable In some years and the farmer Is receiving war prices for everything he has to sell. "There is more money In Canadian savings banks to-day than ever before. While our Imports are perhaps cur-; tailed a trifle, this Is more than set I off bv our greatly increased exports. "Few families In Canada have failed I to contribute the services of at least | one member to the Canadian forces aiding the Allies in Furope. The troops are recruited alike from the poorest classes in the country and from the families of highest social rank. , OCTOBER 9, 1915.
