SILENCE
The perfection of Studebaker manufacture is
responsible for the smooth running silence of
Studebaker gears and moving parts.
Correctness of design and the correct mater
ial for each vital part, together with the exactness
of manufacturing methods, has made it possible
to secure even greater standards of accuracy than
ever before.
In the Series 18 Studebaker Cars noticeable
vibration has been eliminated, and this because
the Studebaker Motor has been improved, refined,
perfected into one of the best automobile motors
on the market trday. The Studebaker is the most
powerful car on the market within hundreds of
dollars of its price.

Says Local Auto Dealer
"You hear a good deal of talk lately
about the quality of gasoline being sj1:1,'
said H. F. Goodpasture. .
"Unsatisfactory results with m-Hor
fuel arc due to the great number of mix
tures being offered the public in the
guise of gasoline.
Mixtures cannot be ns coo-1 motor fuel
as straight-run gasoline because mix
tures cannot have a continuous chain of
boiling points. Easy starting, (jui'-k and
smooth acceleration, power and mileage
all depend absolutely on th boiling
points of a gasoline. And s'oight distil
lation only can give gasoline the correct,
unbroken, gradually rising aeries of boil
ing points.
"Incidentally, gravity is a. worthless
test for gasoline. Gravity tells nothing
atall about boiling points."

Colonel Creed C. Hammond
Gives Up Bank Work to De
vote Time to Service.
Colonel Creed C. Humniond on Thurs
day resigned bis position as assistant
cashier of the Bank of Commerce. Col
onel Hammond has been an assistant
cashier of the bank ever since tt was
organized nearly six years ago. Col.
i Hammond is now devoting his entire
1 time to the work of commanding officer

tions for the calling of bis command into

Wednesday next,
The bank officials stated that for the
present there would be no one appointed
to take Mr. Hammond's position as as
sistant cashier.
When seen at the armory Friday Col
onel Hammond expressed surprise that
there had been more ready response
and more popular enthusiasm over pro
viding the local companies with a proper
mess fund. Ho says it is a peculiar con
dition of mind when a community will
contribute $40,000 to be handled outside
for the benefit of strangers, and do lit
tle or nothing directly for 200 or 250
of the boys of this community who are
going to the front.
