If yon should compare the vintage of 1912 with the pre sent day type of motor car, there's as much difference as, day and night. Bat who has been largely responsible for this evolution of improvement In the motor car as a unit . at transportation T" asks the Cleveland Six salesman. ' 'Arenot the women drivers of yesterday to be credited with the high standard of refinement which Is built into the motor ear of to- 'You, no doubt, recall years ago when motor cars -"were used largely by the male contingent of the nation. Cranking the car by hand was in vogue then, but soon the ladleswanted to experience the thrill of driving. They tried it and liked it and because the average car had to be cranked, manufacturers immediately sensed the need for the self starter to meet the demand of the women. "Next came the electric horn, then the electrically controlled head lamps instead of the gas tank type of former days. Ease of steering was Improved as the gen eral ease of manipulation of the car. "As time went on. women in sisted on greater beauty being built into the different l body Btyles. More striking color finish es were adopted. The interiors of all underwent a period of refine ment, especially closed models. Improved ventilating features were incorporated, together with deep lounge-like comfort of the seats and other cozy advantages appealing to the feminine taste. "In this trend to satisfy the de sires of the women who now make up a large part of the-buyers of motor .cars, has also come the need for less mental annoyance as far as driving the car and its up keep are' concerned. Four wheel brakes reduced to a large extent the mental hazard of uncertain braking and the "One Shot" auto matic chassis lubrication system, Introduced and adopted by the Cleveland Six, is leading the trend t4 deducing upkeep annoyances xnd inconveniences. "To women drivers thfs means much as it not only increases the car's working efficiency but elim inates annoying delays Incident to stop overs for greasing and oiling the car, and for repairs often times caused through the lack of proper ' lubrication. "The One Shot lubrication sys tem is one of the -last Improve ments of note to be Incorporated on the motor car as a result of the women's influence, yet if the past can be considered any criter ion, women 'as a group will still continue to dictate advantages in design for the car of tomorrow as has proved true with the car of yesterday. GENEVA, March 11. (By As sociated Press.) Protests by Swe den that the great powers, partic ularly Great Britain were trying tp bully her into agreeing to en largement of - the league council formed a ' sensational climax to the unsuccessful negotiations to day to settle the league ot nations international crisis.

"The Kids" of Yew Park liad a jTree ride last week in about the niftiest car that ever hit the roads of Oregon. Walter Crosby, of Se attle northwest agent for the Gar fbrd company brought up from San Francisco one of their latest 30-pasenger roadster buses on its way to Seattle. Mr. and Mrs. Crosby, old-time friends of Mr. and Mrs. Charles J J Lisle of 1041 South Thirteenth, picked up a ca pacity load of childrren foe aJxial f the new "boat., The Crosbys inade 30 miles an hour up from San Francisco, driving in a degree bf comfort that most private autos never could approach, either for ease of driving 4 or comfortable riding. The car is built for a speed of 65 miles an hour, and despite Its huge bulk it travels seven miles for every gallon of gas. It is built on a 4x6 motor, lis equipped with air brakes on all four wheels, and it turns in a 50 foot street. ' I Fadeout Clinch Gaining j Official Favor in Japan i - - TOKYO. Not bo long ago the Japanese motion picture censors permitted no picture to be shown ;in which there was a kissing epi sode. ! - ' "The osculatory scenes were re : moved bodily because in this coun try kissing has always been con sidered extremely immoral. Ol late months, however, the censors influenced by the public, have be come more-liberal. Now the hero and heroine are permitted to clinch In the western fashion and a brief kiss is allowable. But it must be brief for if the scene be comes too ardent the censors will start using their scissors. Home office figures show that "love motive" in moving pictures is gaining in popularity among the Japanese fans. A report dis closes that last year more of the 'heart Interest" .pictures were imported into Japan, than ever before. More ; than 60 per cent of the moving pictures used in Japan are imported from Europe and Amer ica, the remaining 40 per cent be ing o domestic production.

'"When .English sparrows bring to their nest 500 destructive caterpillars in one day as one pair did they are entitled to consideration as a most useful bird, declares Professor AG. Rug- gles, Minnesota agricultural col lege entomologist. A second pair brought 500 in sects of various kinds to their young in one hour. Besides, Professor Ruggles estimates many insects were eaten by the adult birds. The birds frequently con sume insect eggs equivalent to one-half of their own weight.

"You are unnecessarily extrava gant with a most essential com modity, are signs of the times that confront motorists who are vitally interested at the present time in the supply and price of rubber as manufactured into auto tires," is a warning note sounded by George O. Brandenburg, general manager of the, Oregon State Motor associa tion. . "Such signs of the times are as conspicuous as signboards throughout the city and paved highways, but there is little re gard .paid them by those most vit ally effected by the waste of so essential an article as rubber. "These signs," according to Mr. Brandenburg, "are scrawled all over the pavements of all hard surfaced streets and highways. Wherever brakes are applied with sufficient severity to slide the wheels of an auto, long black lines are drawn out on the pavement for the entire distance traveled by the locked wheels. These lines are nothing more or less than rubber ground into the pavement as though the tires had been applied to an emery wheel. Such constant unneces sary wear on tires naturally re sults in tire replacements long be fore the tire should be changed if given a chance to deliver its max imum mileage. "When tires have advanced in prices by leaps and bounds, and when an attempt is being made to break the British monopoly on rubber that is responsible for the advances in prices, motorists should be extremely careful in the operation of cars with a view of conserving rubber if not savin)? themselves material costs in their operations of automobiles. Sud den starting as well as sudden stopping are practices that unnec essarily wear the rubber tread from tires, "Care should be used also in parking as much damage is done the side walls of tires when they are squeezed or chafed against curbs.
