Government Took Entire Output Factory Has Been Enlarged One of the busiest spots In the au tomobile world is the plant of the Peerless Motor Car Company, of Cleveland, Ohio. The roar of machin ery as it turns out a greatly increas ed production of Peerless cars is ac companied by the hum and noise of hundreds of builders who are at work on extensive additions to the already large factory. With its pleasure car business enjoying a remarkable growth, the Peerless Company has just received another mammoth order for trucks for European war service. The order calls for 70 chassis a week and to produce the number required, the truck department will have to turn out 70 of them each week until well Into the Spring of 19.7. Since the fall of 1914, the Peerless truck department has been pushed to the limit on the production of war trucks. At the end of its first series of European orders, the United States government commandeered the en tire Peerless output. Now that the United States contract has been filled, the company is again busy on its for eign business. In spite of the tremendous war busi ness handled by the company, the Peerless officials caim that the truck departments are so efficiently organiz ed that the European trade does not interfere with the Increasing output of the Peerless Model 56-Elght-cylln der cars. The latter producUon has grown so rapidly that the concern has found it necessary to add more than a hundred thousand square feet of floor space to the factory to be used chiefly in the finishing of Model 56 cars. Three new buildings are now under process of erection. The three buildings will form a new factory group and are located at the south side of the Peerless railroad yard and within the quarter mile brick testing track. They represent the highest type of factory building con struction with special provision for light and air for the workmen. One building adjoining the present wood working building will be &3 by 162 feet in size and will have three floors. The frame is to be of concrete and ex panded metal with a wall of brick. Another of the new buildings will also have three floors, but it will be largei in floor area. The dimensions for this building are 60 feet by 270 feet. The third is to be used for chassis assem bling. It is of saw-tooth construction with a ground area of 40,000 square feet. These fine new buildings will be de voted entirely to the production of the Model 56 passenger cars and will con tain the following departments: Body building, body painting, upholstery, chassis painting, final assembly and fi nal inspection departments. It is ex pected that the new floor space will be in use before the first ,of next year. Expert Collecting Data on High School Locations For Committee's Use Interesting data on the cost and de sirability of various sites which have been under more or less tentative con sideration for the proposed new High school, is being gathered by realty experts for presentation Tuesday at a joint meeting of the High school com mittee of the school board and the citizens' committee from the Chamber of Commerce. While the recommendations that will be made to the board by the special committee are as yet not a matter for publication, it is under stood that the report of the commit tee consisting of President A. Carson Stamm and Dr. F. E. Downes, the city superintendent, will be practically adopted as It stands. This calls for the erection of a new girls' central High school, the enlarging of Tech nical High school for the accommo dation of the boys only, and the con struction of three junior High schools. The board yesterday accepted the resignation of William a. Pike, a Technical High school Janitor but his successor was not named. It was de cided tco that children who start to school this Fall will be admitted dur ing the first two weeks in October. ma l i Ensminger Motor Co. Third & Cumberland Sts.

Clarag c Apperson Completes New Addition to Factory This Is "moving day" at the Apper son Brothers' Automobile company of Kokomo, Indiana. The machine shop Is being moved from Its old location in plant No. 1 to its new home in plant No. 2. Incidentally this very essen tial department of the factory, in which every machining operation on Apperson cars is done, Is being en larged to double Its former capacity. The finishing of the rtew machine shop marks the completion of a se ries of additions -which the Apperson Brothers Automobile company has been making to Its plant beginning In 1913. Since this expansion was started three large additions have been built to plant No. 2. The last one, which now houses the new machine shop, contains more than 90,000 square feet of manufacturing space. Every building in the group com prising plant No. 2 is modern in every detail. They are of flre-proof cement construction throughout, and are built on the plan of the latest and most Improved method of factory construc tion. There are windows galore, which combined with a system of sky lights, give the building a maximum supply of natural light. Additions to plant No. 2 already complete and occupied contain the paint shop, the finishing department, the final test department, and the traffic department. The section of the building which contains the traffic de partment runs parallel with the Penn sylvania railroad. There is a gigantic shipping platform built along here which is designed to be enUrely ade quate to accommodate the ever-in creasing demands of the sales depart ment that cars be rushed away to all parts of the United States and the for eign countries just as quickly as they are finished. These extensive improvements have been made necessary because of the rapidly increasing demand for Ap person cars in all motor car markets. When the Apperson Hoadaplane was announced recently a demand was In stantly created which left the Apper son plants Inadequate to supply. Something had to be done immediate ly to relieve this situation and that something could be nothing, but the construction of large additional man ufacturing space and the employment of a large force of skilled mechanics, who could readily be taught Apper son manufacturing methods by the men who have worked for many years In' the Apperson factory. Smart Bodies Mark the New Mitchell Cars The new Mitchell closed bodies for all four seasons are out and these new creations show all the coming trends as can be expected from John W. Bate, the famous Mitchell man. Every Mitchell body, closed or open, indeed represents the finest at tainable in that class of car. The lux ury models are lavish in their finish, design and appointments. The ablest craftman of them all have been con sulted and employed by John W. Bate in their construction. No limit as to cost could have entered into the build ing of the new smart bodies for they look their class and nowhere will be found more palatial town, theater or touring cars for all seasons. The trend certainly seems to be to wards fourseason types—cars for win ter and summer—for fair days and for storms. One Mitchell car of this type serves for all the year around. It is never too cold for it. never too stormy and never too warm. The Mitchell Sedan, which is the Springfield type, is finished, uphols tered and equipped like the finest lim ousine, but the seats are all inside, so anyone can drive it while sitting with the rest. The car has a dome light— the front seats divide and with the two extra seats the car comfortably carries seven. The plate glass sides in this car completely disappear when you want an open touring car and this change can be made in a moment. The Mitchell Cabriolet is another four-seson model. It is a three pas senger coupe with an auxiliary seat for still another passenger and chang es readily into a very smart roadster —the top drops back and the side windows drop down into the doors. The .Mitchell limousine is the fin est example of a luxury car. All wool whipcord upholstering with silk drop curtains, three electric lights, tele phone, loilet and vanity case, flower vases, smoking sets, Waltham clock— nrm rests and auxiliary seats that face either way, are only a few of the dainty touches that make this car stand out from the throng. The coupe seats four and is finish ed and upholstered like the limousine package compartments, disappearing plate glass windows and dainty touch es for theater goers are unsurpassed and the highest priced cars cannot offer in closed bodies more superb or finer appointed creations. For the present Mitchell touring car owner there is a wonderfully smart and well fitting demountable top such as has not been marketed heretofore and which ably rounds out a complete line of Mitchell closed bodies that are already finding a ready demand.

In a The fastest Electric Rallvrar In „ w ,. 108 Market Street SEPTEMBER 16, 1916, SALARY MATTERS TO BE ADJUSTED Dr. Schaeffer Makes Some Sug gestions to Teachers and Directors of State School directors and teachers are urged to settle differences over pay ment of salaries which have arisen because of the postponement of the date of opening of the schools due to the outbreak of infantile paralysis by Dr. Nathan C. Schaeffer, State sup erintendent of public instruction, in a circular issued to school authori ties. It appears that there have been many inquiries made for interpreta tion of the clause in the school code that districts shall be liable for salar ies when it is necessary to close schools unless otherwise provided in contracts. In some districts there are stipulations in contracts that teachers are to be paid only for the service rendered, but in others arrangements are different. "Directors and teachers should try to adjust their differences in the most amicable way possible," says Dr. Schaeffer in his letter. "An epidemic causing the closing of all the schools of the State was certainly not contem plated when the present school code was enacted nor a*e State revenues in sight by which the Legislature might reimburse districts for the financial loss due to the closing of the schools on account of infantile paralysis." A notice has also been issued to the effect that school districts "in which there are less than twenty minors be tween the ages of fourteen and six teen employed, need not open contin uation schools."
