No car gves greater value for the money. ' J The good motor car manufacturer must build better than the demands of ordinary use require. In theVelie the pur chaser is assured of this margin of quality this reserve store of power and performance that is always ready when the need arises or when ordinary performance falls short. I The fact that every unit of Velie construction is built bet ter than is necessary for ordinary motoring assures the pur chaser of a car that will be ready for any emergency. Salem Velie Go.

Honey's letter; '"I am in a city foyer engaged for the morning in book-binding and fa m out of binding paper, and am writing while I wait. We so to the foyers daily to see if all is well; we talk to the poilus and then seek for sup plies. These are difficult to pro cure' because of transportation dif ficulties. Our nearest railway sta tion serving us is several miles dis tant and we have to get an' auto when it can be (pared in order to bring the freight over. Then, too. tho materials do not arrive from Parts. Pari riiwa nnt have them! they have been carried elsewhere by mistake, etc. , There is do end to trouble connected with foyer work. The Y. M. C.

After lunch an American artist went with mto the foyer and is to -lecorate It. It has a little stage, the wings of which are to be covered by a land scape scene, seven windows of which are also to" be adorned to represent art glass of an early period!. Any way, the color will add a good deal to the brightness of the hall. "Tomorrow night there is io De a concert and the poilus will be there in -vociferating crowds.
