dnrdized automobile maintenance,
has made all roads easy for the
J tH'ii tourist army.
Thousands of motorists arc
heading into llu dim distances and
enjoying tin; tfiealest of all hitfh
way vacation seasons as never be
fore, thanks to this development,
to standard .service tools and to
better service education, according
to Nash Motors company engineers
M ho have completed a mid-summer
survey of the national conven
iences offered motor pilgrims In
every nook and corner of the coun
try. The survey shows that Nash
maintenance has reached tho
height of its development following
years of intensive study and con
stant improvement, insisted on by
('. W. Nash as one of the founda
tions of his highly successful man
ufacturing policy. Kor years it 1ms
been an axiom with Mr. Nash that
courteous attention to the needs of
the car owner is as vital after he
lias pin-chased his car as it is when
he is a sa les prospect.
One Can Do .Much Harm
"One dissatisfied owner can
' cause more harm to an organiza
tion of any kind than a hundred
satisfied owners can mend," he has
told Nash distributors, dealers, and
their working forces during scores
of personal Inspection trips. Service
facilities are always a point of par
ticular interest fur the industrial
leader, and he makes It

Every "trouble prevention" and

it so easy and economical for own
ers to enjoy their cars to the limit
without any of the Inconveniences,
delays and road repairs which
marked the early days of motoring. ,
A series of rcicfllar inspections j
each witli its nominal standard j
price keeps the cars in perfect
condition for the thousands or
drivers who have learned to take
full advantage of the famous Nash
maintenance system. This regular
attention, the survey shows, pre

bills that might result from neglect

SPEeI) ARMY
TANK TRAVELS
AT FAST CLIP
With the joining of practically
all nations in a pact for universal
peaee. there is little likelihood of ,
another catastrophe Hkv the World
War. It is well and wise to be j
prepared. Imwever, say statesmen I
of the nation.
Sharing in this opinion is J. j
Walter Christie, one of the auto-j
motive industry's foremost end- (
neeis. who has just perfected an !
eight ton armored tank capable oi ;
a speed of nearly 7 rulfes an houi.
According to a message received
by Mr. I'eterson, local Dura tit. deal
er, from Norman de Vatix, head
or the Western' Dimwit factory, a
Duratit Six Sixty-six sedan, with
tmir fdi-ward speeds, paced the new
enmne .( destitu tion over a meas
uied mile course at ! i miles an
hour, duiiug an official army test.

Skill Plays Bi
Part In Solving
Traffic Problems
The motorists' comfort and safe
ty on streets and highways would
be impossible today without" the
-engineering genius built into the
n nnint I modern automobile, according to
I.. ( Smith, local dealer for Dodge
Brothers niolor cars.
"If the millions of cars on the
roads today were operating with
tho mechanical equipment offered
on the cars of 1 fi years ao, the
public, would have a real traffic
menace." said Mr. Smith, "Hut
automotive manufacturers are
building cars with more flexibility
and greater braking facilities 'th.it
in reality enable more cars to be
on the street with swifter move
ment of traffic than was ever
dreamed a Jew years ago.
"The Ne,v Dodge Itndhers Six
c-onipared to the first Dodge car ol
i:U-J presents a fair comparison to
prove the point. Just as the latest
Dodge creations offer startling de
velopments in motor car appear
ance and performance, so the 11)14
Dodge was a leader in Its day.
Each was built lo fill the current
dema nds of automotive transpor
tation. "Four wheel hydarulie internal
expanding brakes, powerful six
cylinder engines with maximum
flexibility, finger tip steering, and
simplified controls that are. to a
great degree automatic, have made
present day driving the easiest and
safest possible.
"Hiding qualities have also come
in for their part In the evolution
of the motor car. Fifteen years
ago. a drive of lafl miles was a
.day's work. Now uoo to 4(H) miles
and more is an accepted day's
ourney, and the driver arrives at
his destination with little fatigue,
l-'orm fitting cushions, flexible
springs, hyduaiilic shock absorbers,
balloon tires and improved roads
have brought about this transfor
mation. "In dependability and economy
of operation, such striking ad
vancements have been made that
the owner of a nuudern car can
plan a trip with the cerlalnty of
train schedules, with the cost far
below aiy other period lu the his
tory of the motor car 'travel'." .

"Why were you driving so fast
this morning?"
"Well, the judge fined me five
dollars for speeding yesterday, and
he couldn't change my- ten-dollar
bill; so he told me to go out ana

On a hot summer morning the
task of rolling and cutting cookies
becomes wearisome, ao why not
ma ke drop cookies?
As an accompaniment for iced
lea or coffee with an Ice or mousse
cookies, seem, nunc suitable than
cake. They are easier to handle at
informal affairs, and have a firm
ness of texture that contrasts well
with u beverage.
I'lain drop cookies perhaps are
more desirable for children, but
those w it h nuts and raisins will
bo liked by grown-ups and impart
a rather fastive air lo any occa
sion. Chocolate drop cookies will
be liked by grown-ups and impart
quite so good with iced tea or cof
fee. Vanilla Ice cream and orange lee
are particularity good with choco
late cookies.
Here's Dclieate C-niifeeilon
The little drop cook led made
with egg whites are delicate con
fections. Nuts, cocoanut or candied
frulls are added as the cook pre
fers. Keek in mind 'that a slower
oven Is needed for tho cookies
made with the whiles of eggs than
for other varieties.
llran, or rolled oats often are
used with wnlte flour to make drop
cookies. A small amount of white
flour is used to keep tho cookie
from crumbling after baking. Al
most any cookie rule can be turned
used .Only enough flour is needed
to make tho dough of "drop" con
sistency. Since cookies keep much better
than cake they can bo mado lu
largo quantities and stored to use
an wanted. A stone covered jar or
tin covered box will keep cookies
either moist or crisp as one prefers
them.

TOl.l'DO, O.. Aug. 24 Produc
tion of Ihe Willys-Knight Clreal
Six lias now reached the stage ol
I'&OU units per month, a large vol
ume for a car in its price class.
The incorporation of certain addi
tional features in tills style leader
.subsequent to the preliminary
showing at the National Automo
bile Show accounts for delays In
reaching present volume. Now,
according to company officials, Ihe
Great Six Model stands in a front
line position among IUH0 typo mo
tor earn.
The Willys-Overln nd company
for a number of years past has
relied upon models in the price
class of the Great Six as important
factors in earning power, and the
lack of such a model during tin
earlier months this year has nat
urally deferred a considerable pro-
tit. Now, with production having
fully swung into tin; anticipated
volume to meet waiting orders, It
is expected that sales within this
range will have a very helpful ef
fect upon tho company's 1'lnuucial
showing for the last half.
