Mrs. Dorward died at the home of

rose, and has a twin sister, who still
survives her and is living in Green
bay, Wis. Before coming to Wilson
ville about two years ago, Mrs. Dor
ward had resided for a number of
years in Milwaukee, Wis. She was a
woman of strong christian character
and had endeared herself to all with
whom she came in contact by her
cheerful, kindly disposition. She had
been sick about six months, after hav

been under a physician's care and all
was done to relieve her suffering.
The remains were taken to the Port

services were held in the chapel, a
minister of the Congregational church

mother of five children, all of whom
survive her. The floral offerings were

this noble woman was held by her

their pad bereavement.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 28. With un
friendly crowds jostling them, but
with eyes set straight ahead, the New
York to Washington band of suffra
gettes arrived here today and march
ed past the capitol to suffragette head
quarters. Bedraggled, tanned and
blistered, the marchers presented a
marchers was sadly disarranged, and
"Colonel'' Ida Crawft plodded wearily
along with her dress pinned nearly to
her knees.
A battery of moving picture men in
automobiles ran ahead of the "army",
photographing it as the marchers
wallowed through the streets. Near
the capitol building the streets were
packed with a laughing, jostling
throng, and the mounted police had
difficulty in clearing a pathway for
hikers.
After reaching suffragette headquar
ters the marchers dispersed to secure
fresh clothing and other necessities.
Near Bladenburg, Md., a band from
the negro reform school lined the
roadway and played a quick step,
while a number of young hikers left
the ranks and did a turkey trot in the
mud.
When the band reached Maryland
Avenue it was joined by a local con
tingent, with Miss Alice Paul, chair
man of the local suffrage headquar
ters, in the lead.
Of the original army of 16 who left
New York but 10 finished here today.
They are: Rosalie Jones, Ida Crawft,
Martha Klatscken, Elizabeth Aldrich,
Minerva Crowell, Miss Brown, Eliza
beth Deutsch, Constance Lepp, Mrs.
John Boldt and Mrs. George Wendt.
After the marchers had bathed and
otherwise refreshed themselves tey
were the guests at luncheon of Wash
ington suffragette leaders.
The formal presentation of the suf
fragette letter to President-elect Wil
son probably will cause a row.
"General" Jones is determined to
present it herself, but Miss Alice Paul
threatens to try to hand it ti Wilson.

A certain admiral upon coming on

"Well, that's the first time I ever saw

Three Quarter Floating Rear
Axel of Overland Model 69
The Overland Model 69 three-quarter floating
rear axel has a number of. important advantages over
the semi-floating rear axel design which is used in
, most cars of low or.medium price.
The semi-floatingvaxel consists of a rear axel hous
ing, the differential, and the two axel shafts, with
bearings between the housing and the shafts. The
weight of the car and its load is carried half and half
. on the axel shafts and on the housing. Consequent
ly, the axel shaft has to do double duty. It has to
Ccirry part of the load and also must turn the driving
wheels. The result is that the bearings are subjected
. to heavy stresses, that there is a great amount of fric
tion, and that any deformation of the axel housing
and any bending of the axel shafts, no matter how
slight, immediately effects the alignment of the bear
ings. It is entirelv different with the OVERLAID
THREE-QUARTER FLOATING REAR AXEL.
Here the load is carried by the axel housing which is
reinforced by an inner steel tube riveted and keyed
"to the housing proper.
The rear wheel roller 'bearings run on the hard
ened seamless steel tube which projects from the ax
el housing on either side. As a consequence the dif
ferential bearings and the wheel bearings do not conic
in contact with the axel drive shafts at all. Those
drive shafts, which are of special heat treated
chrome nickel steeL only have to turn the wheels.
The differential bearings, therefore, have to bear on
ly their own stresses and the broad, elastic HYATT
REAR WHEEL BEARINGS cai-y the rear load of
the car. The rear-wheel bearings njroover, are in
the vertical plane cf the spokes ; tUty receive the load
straight from above, and need no adjustment what
CAer. Side thrcst is taken up bv an adjustable ball
thrust bearing on either side of the differential.
The only difference there is between the full float
ing rear axel such as is used in the Overland Model
71 and the new O VERLAND THREE-QUARTER
FLOATING AXEL of Model 69 is that in the full
floating axel the rear wheel is fastened to the axel
bruising, while in the THREE-QUARTER FLOAT
ING type of Model 69 the wheel is fastened to the
axel shaft. But in the way they carry the load, and
in the independence and safetv of the bearings, the
THREE-QUARTER FLOATING AXEL and the
full-floating type are alike.
There are other points in favor of the new Over
land axel design. -
In the semi-floating rear axel considerable trou
ble is often caused by the differential lubricant leak
ing through the axel housing, past the axel shafts and
into the . brakes. In our THREE-QUARTER
FLOATING AXEL this is avoided by the use of
heavy felt washers which are pressed against the axel
tube by a spiral spring.
The brakes mounted on the new axel are worthy "
of particular attention. They also are of new design
and very large for a car of the size of the Model 69.
The diameter of the drums is 13 3-8 inches and their
width, 2 7-8 inches, with a brake band 2 1-4 inches
wide.
The brakes are of gradual yet powerful applica
tion. The more often used service brake is adjust
able in two ways, once at the adjustment sector, for
coarse adjustment, and again by shortening the ser
vice brake band levers, for fine adjustment.
Every part of Axel mechanism is easily and quick
ly reached. Thrust bearings, differential bearings
and the large bevel gear may be adjusted without
difficulty.
IrT distinction to many other cars, the Overland
combines the transmission and the differential me
chanism into one unit; in other words, the transmis
sion is "on the rear axel," instead of amidships. The
result is more rigid construction and a saving of much
engine power which in other Gai-g is wasted in pass
ing the power from the transmission td the differen
tial. In the Overland transmission the Shafts are
short and all gear changes are made with short find
quick movements of the gear-shifting lever in the
center of the car.
While the OVERLAND REAR AXEL is but a
sgle detaiLit is typical of the remainder of the
OVERLAND CONSTRUCTION and design. Ev
erything is as it should be and the whole car is an ex
pression of THE WILLIS-OVERLAND COM
PANY'S policy to see, first, how good a car thev can '
make ; second, how many of them they can build
which is only another way of saying QUALITY
FIRST, QUANTITY NEXT.
