He refers to the Overland Country Club as a fitting example of the modern utility car. "Scarcely a day passes," said Mr. Hanson, "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.

COUNCIL HOLDS CONFERENCE The city commissioners at n in formal conference late yesterday in the council chamber discussed the question of holding the annual con vention of the League of Cities of the Third Class in Harrisburg on August 28, 29 and 30 without reaching a de cision. The heavy expense connected with holding the convention in Har risburg is all that is delaying the commissioners' decision to bring the convention here. The matter will be decided at the council meeting on Tuesday. i 'for his wife,' he added. When I 1 asked him what was wrong with the 1 car that he bought for his wife a! 1 couple of months ago. he smiled,; locked just little bit sheepish and j replied that his wife hadn't had her j , hands on the steering wheel since; I the first week—he had been using j 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 I 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 lit- j tie Liberty garden out in the sub-1 urbs; to take a little run out to the j golf links late in the afternoon, now j 1 and then; and to see from one to five prospects in the evenihg. I ac complish more in a day now th&h 11 I : did in a day and a half when I had I to depend on street cars. That is why | \ my wife hasn't had a chance to use | j the car. I've ben keeping it going i nfearly every; minute.' j 'That man was an insurance || agent. are hundreds of other | ■ men in the same business, who would testify just as enthusiastical- j sly" concerning the utility advantages' of the motorcar. Then there are the ' doctors, the real estate men, the lawyers, the merchants and, in fact, j men in every line of endeavor who, [ having once owned an automobile, | find that they cannot get along with- j > out one. "The Country Club model Js espe-1 - cially adaptable for the average t man's use, because it is unusually! i attractive in design, light and there- 1 ■ fore economical in upkeep, and be- ] t cause it seats four passengers com -1 fortably—a feature which is too fre- | 1 quently found to lie unique in small j - cars of this type."

Fetterman, drivihg a Peer less Eight (Special), not only won distinction when ho broke the pro fessional track record Jn the 112% mile Invitation Dealers' race on the Uniontown Speedway July 4 with a time of 1:13:40, but Tie appears to have shattered all records in Deal ers' raclns' events in the live con tests which he has entered on that track during the spring and sum mer. The total mileage of the five Uniontown contests, in which Fet terman has driven the Peerless Eight amounted to 414% miles. The first was BO miles, the next three were 112% miles. The first BO miles, the next three were 112% miles and the fifth was the Australian pur suit race of 27 miles. The whole 414% miles of terrllic driving made without a single stop for me chanical assistance; without a cylin der missing and without the power ful motor ever becoming over-heat ed. Furthermore, the last race of 112% miles was run on seven gal lons of gasoline, an average of ap proximately 16 miles to the gallon— a remarkable record for a heavy car. In telling of his Uniontown Speed way experiences at the Peerless fac tory the other day, Fetterman said: "During all of my racing career, I have never heard of any per formance in a series of Dealers' . events which will equal that ef the Peerless Eight. I firmly believe that the car can run all day at an aver age of 90 miles an hour without any mechanical difficulty." He then re ferred to the statements made in the foregoing paragraph. A feature of the car, for which Fetterman attributes a great deal of his success, is its unusual balance in construction, which enabled him to operate it without extraordinary strain on the mechanical parts. As an example of the perfect balance, he said that he had noticed that in driving around the Uniontown track he always found himself on the turns within six Inches of the same spot where he had made the turns on previous trips around the oval. "Perfect balance in the construc tion of heavy racing cars is a feature of construction which all racing men look for and pray for," said Fetter man. "That a special stock car j would embody this feature, to the ex tent that the Peerless Eight does, is certainly remarkable." The total cash winnings for the Peerless Eight at Uniontown on July 4 were $1,4;i0. The dealers' race bropght Fetterman $750, the track title gave him SSOO more and he won S2OO in the Australian Pursuit Race.

Arthur won this title at the Lincoln, Nebraska track, at the Neb raska semi-centennial celebration, held June 12. He hung up a new rec- Drd for the twenty-ftve-mile distance on a dirt track by completing the rourse in 30 minutes, 47 seconds. Klein clipped a flat two minutes from the previous figures made by Bill Endicott. Both drivers have been using Dixon's graphite automobile lubri cants regularly. When records are broken It's generally a case of a Dlx sn-lubrlcttted car, for the great ma jority of the noted speed boys use Dixon's and the winners are almost ilways Dixon disciples. Dixon's give friction no quarter and, when a car Is Dlxon-lubricated, the man who Irlves it can dismiss friction from his worry department.
