DAVENPORT, Jr., Manager Good looks, plenty of comfort and convenience and ample room for five adults make the Maxwell Touring model the ideal car for family use. The popularity of this pleasure car alone, during the past five seasons, would have enahled the Maxwell Motor Company to attain a volume production such as few motor car companies achieve with an entire line. Five years of intensive manufacture have developed the Maxwell chassis remarkably, and the efforts of the past year to enhance the car's appearance have borne good fruit. The Touring Car appears this season with a new body. It is just a little more roomy than its predecessors more space in the tonneau and more clearance and leg room in the driving compartment. This naturally followed as a result of lengthening the chassis several inches. A FULL LINE OF UNITED STATES TIRES IN STOCK L. E.

GLASS SLAPS Americans Who Join Croak ers and QuibUers Not Worthy of Name. attlaxztfell B Secretary of the Treasury Carter Glass hit out straight from the shoul der today at those "Americans" who. now that the guns are coolm. are uuwillins to pay for Amernan victory. He said: "The coming issue of government bonds has heeu designated the victory lioerty loan and it seems to me it might well be termed the thanksgiv ing loan, for if ever a people had cause for thanksgiving we are that people. Could Stand It. "Consider if the war had lasted an other year what would have been our state. Instead of sixty thousand dead we likely would have had hundreds of thousands. In time we miuht have equaled the record of France, with her two million slain. And yet some of us grumble because the government must spend further money to main tain the comfort and brinn home in safety those boys whose lives were spared. "Conpress is writing off the books fifteen billions of dollars, expenditure of which had been authorized and which would have had to be expended, with billions of other dollars, had the war gone on another year. We all are glad, of course, that it is not neces sary to spend these additional Ml lions, but had It been necessary the speiuliUK of then, still would not have brought the nation down to ruin. "We Btill would have been far be hind France In the amount of our debt, compared to wealth and popu lation. With our man power practi cally Intact, with our towns and fac tories and farms undamaged, should we be cowed by a monetary obliga tion lighter far than the one France faces unafraid? "Those Americans who today have joined the carpers and the quibble are not worthy of the name. They are not worthy the boys they sent forth to make, If need be, the su preme sacrifice that liberty might live. Dollartaand Sons. "It Is incomprehensible to me that any of the men who gave their Rons so gladly and so proudly to their country in Its hour of peril should turn so quickly to cold and caleulat ing contemplation of the dollar. Had the war gone on they would, with e.ual pride, have offered other sons and would have continued to give of their wealth ungrudgingly. Now that the coming of peace has restored their sons to them, will they tighten up their purse-strings and adopt nn attitude which would seem to say: 'Let the go -eminent go hang?' "1 think the number of croakers relatively is very small, but their wail ings and lamentations travel far and tend to discourage others who are not stout of heart. Plain Patriots. "1 do not believe that the plain people of America either are fearful of the future or distrustful of their government. When the. next loan is offered I have every confidence they will understand its nocesslty and will gladly meet its requirements. "Plain fathers and mothers through out the land have not so soon ceased to be thankful that the ending of the war has restored their sons to them." IS WAY BACK TO NORMAL 8 Carl Pieh.i. Professor of Finance. University of California O! course the war upset b is?ness It incrrwsed ;ome lines such as war munitions but decreased common, everyday peac lines. The only pos sible way back to norma' is to build up common butiness. To get back to normal means that we hae to g"t capital back into those lines f bislness which have fallen behind. If an individual has met a great loss the only way he can make himself whole aain is by saving, by strict economy. A country is only a lot of individuals. We have, collec tively, to meet the cost of the war, an economic loss, although a moral gain. We can meet it only by sav ing. The government is coming to us next month with the Victory Uberty Loan the last of the Liberty Loans. There are sound financial and eco nomic reasons why the Victory Loan should be brought again to the peo ple. The government could make us save by heavy taxes light now, but it prefeis the less harsh and wiser course of borrowing our savings now and taxing on the Installment plan, a little each year. Leave Banks Free. Now if the people take the loan, s they must, the banks will be left free to lend to the fanner, the manu facturer, the grocer, the butcher, and the baker so they can get busy again. Then production and business will grow and, by the formula, prices will come to normal. Then we shall all know "where we are at" and get straightened out again. If we "leave It to the banks," they will have "no funds" left for business, big or little. We, ourselves, will not lie saving and the day of our redemp tion will only be postponed. There will result inevitable inflation and the continuance of high and abnormally fluctuating p.'ices. The Victory Loan Is part of the war job Just as much as any other Lib erty Ioan. We can not afford to "let lieorge do It," because, if we do we shall be turning our hands from the plow before the end of the furrow is reached, and leaving a big crop of weeds to spring up.

Australia has made war bond buying compulsory. F.very one of the Hritish countries Is still buy ing, and France France with hr Industries laid waste, her farms dev astated, her land shell blown, and her homes destroyed France Is buying short term bonds at de creased rate of interest In small amounts but great numbers. 1 Director of War Savings Alters Original Plan of Hing ing Uwo S::urities , Victory Liberty Loan quotas will not J be affected by Thrift Stamp sales as planned by the Treasury Department the tlri-t of the year. It was announced last January by Lewis II. Franklin, i director of war savings, that wherever Thrift Stamp quotas were exceeded the amount of oversubscription would 1 be taken from the coining loan quota and that if the Thrift Stamp quotas ' were not reached the deficiency would , be added to the loan quota, i Governor J:;;!ies K. Lynch of the I Federal Kesene Hank has just 1 received a telegram from Washington advising that the plan to adjust Vic tory Loan quotas in accordance with the sale of War Savings Stamps has j been abandoned. The reason given 1 was that some of tho Federal Reserve Districts wore not reapportioning ' Thrift Stamp quotas. viTWawrniri wn i. mm B Jf III I Make Your Home More Attractive Y.ii can ensily transform slmb'n- In i nit ore, or woo.

No Counterfeit for Pigskin Probably you have some time other in your life bought a pair of I pltskin leggings or putties. How do I you know they are pigskin? As a tnntter of fact there Is no leather in j the world Just like pigskin In wearing i quality. A saddle, a holster, or a pair j of putties made of this homely mate- ! rial will come pretty near proving In- i destructible. There Is one easy way by which you can always tell pigskin. Examine It closely and you will find that the lit tle black spots on the outside of the hide are always located in groups of three. The whole surface will look speckled, but these specks will be there In groups of three, always and with out fail, In any hide once worn by a porker. Another part of the test Is to look at the grain side of the hide. Tou will find here that there ore holes all the way through. As a matter of fact, the bristles of the hog grow entirely through the skin, and are nourished not by the skin Itself but by the fatty tissues of the animal. i m nr JVB'- V . r r. .
