iWvice, the Maxwell company is glad
to do the work, though the business is
one which they inherited, rather than
originate.
The strange comlitinu " prevails
through the fact that, some time ago,
the Maxwell organization absorbed into
its manufacturing system the old Uris
cue Manufacturing company plant on
Woodward avenue, Detroit.
The Hriseoe plant had, for years,
built all the Maxwell radiators. It hail
been a pioneer in automobile radiator
construction from the earliest days of
the industry. At one time, no less than
78 manufacturers of cars were custom
ers of the plant.
Since its connection with the Maxwell
company, the famous obi plant has been,
to a great extent, reorganized anil en
larged in scope. It nw builds not only
radiators but all pressed metal parts for
the Maxwell car, the list including fend
ers, hoods, skirt shields, robe rails,
tanks, pans, name plates, hub caps anil
multitude of small parts. The work
for other manufacturers done by this
plant is necessarily limited and the!
clients supplied are exclusively manu
facturers of high-priced cars. A veter
an manufacturer in the highpriiie, high
Iinwer field buys all his rudiutors, for
10th passenger -curs and trucks from
this source. Another heavy buyer of
Maxwell-made parts is the world's bug

and the same workmen prevail.
Though the plant adjoins the Mich
igan Central tracks, but a small part
of its product is shipped by rail, the
'great bulk being moved by motor
trucks. A steady stream of these vehi
cles plies between the radiator plant
and the Oakland avenue Maxwell plant,
where final assembly is made.
Many of the processes in vogue in
this Maxwell plant have been originul
with its rtaff; some of them have ac
cepted by the industry as well nigh
revolutionary. A recent example is the
heurt shaped radiator crown which the
plant is making for Maxwell cars. Its
manufacture implied a problem of press
and die work never before successfully
solved.
ENCLOSED CARS GROW

Detroit Electric Doubles Output to
Meet Increased Demand.
Builders of enclosed Ci-s throughout
the country have all remarked a notice- j
able Wicri'use in the call for inside-driven
automobiles. The Anderson Klectric!
Cur company builders of Detroit Klec
tries who are the world's largest
manufacturers of enclosed cars, have
been forced to extend their production
plans for this coming season to provide
for more than twice as many cars as
they built in' It'll).
V. C. Anderson, president of the
Anderson Klectric Cur company, manu
facturers of the Detroit Klectric. car,
says, "It is my belief from having care
fully watched tho automobile business'
through its various development during
the oast 10 years, that there are two
very evident reasons for the growing
favor the enclosed car is finding among
practical motor car buyers. First, be
cause of its construction, the enclosed
car provides nil equipage which can be
used with the greatest efficiency and
comfort every day the year 'round. So
when a man buys an enclosed car he
eliminates the expense of an extra body
for winter driving which a touring car
owner is forced to meet unless he puts
his cur up for the winter and so loses
four or five months of nutomobiling
each year. The second important reas
on, as I see it, Is that the custom of
long tours by automobile is rapidly dy
ing out. Htutistics of which I have
knowledge prove conclusively that 118
jut cent of till automobile trips taken
fall within a rudius of 00 to 80 miles.

This decrease in touring simply moans
that the open touring car is becoming
less and less n factor among automo
biles. Detroit Klectric holds its su
premacy among enclosed cars because it
offers not only the general advantuges
of the inside-driven automobile, but
also the many further features of com
fort, economy, silence and smoothness
which are only possible with electric
power. Our deulers in' every part of
the country report a most gratifying
situation for this coming season.
Although a few years ago electric
cars in the main were looked upon as
only town cars, this feeling has disap
peared entirely from the minds of those
who huve kept in touch with the mar
velous advances in electric car con

The invasion of the "jitney" in the

in a motion' to dismrss filed in the cir
cuit court today in the case of the Town
of l.inntou ugaiiist the Itailruud coin
mission as defendant n nil the United
Kail ways company as intet'Teaer. The
suit was dismissed by un order of Judge
unllnway without prejudice und without
judgment for costs. The town of l.inn
tou brought suit against the then rail
road commission when this body grant
ed an increase of the rates for pas
sengers from l'ortlund to I.innton from
five cents to 10 cents each way. The
town of I.innton maintained that in
consideration of the fact thut the coun
ty court vacated a county road and
allowed the railroad company to build
its trucks thereon that the railroad
company agreed to cnarge a maximum
passenger rate of five cents. The rail
road company found that this line,
which was over a distance of nine miles,
would not pay at five cents and peti
tioned for no increase which the com
mission grunted. The county court then
ordered the railroad to vacate the coun
ty road with its tracks and the com
pany had steadily lost money on this
line so it tore up its tracks' and the
jitney now carries the residents to and
from l'ortlund but the jitney charges 10
cents.

Resignation As Captain
(Continued from Page One.1
When seen )n regard to tho matter
Captain Gerlhar said:
" I believe that in serving ten yenrs
without pay in tho National Guard I
have discharged my obligations to the
stnte and nation as a soldier in time of
peace. However should the necessity
arise, I am ready to offer my services
in such capacity as the country might
need me. Long service in the Guard
is a great sacrifice and as it is usually
performed by those who face tho every
day problem of making a living, I be
lieve that proper compensation should
te provided, at least sufficient to do
fray the ordinary actual cash outlay
iiirecuy connected with the perform
ance of military duties. The associa
Hons in the service hnve been pleasant
as the most energetic and ambitious
young men in the community are found
in tne ttuard, because their patriotism
prompts them to servo their country.
iThe first night in the old armory that
I. as a "rookie'' was issued a uniform
and an old Springfield musket I
thought that, some day I would be a
eaptnin. That has always been the
height nf my military ambition. I
have now amply fulfilled that as well
: as discharged my obligation to my
n . ' ' n
country m time of pence. I hope the
time will come when everv able bodied
man will feel it his patriotic duty to
train himself for three years for the
National defense. Wo have too many
who think they are pntrotic if they
present themselves for service in time
of war, only to become a considerable
burden to the government in spending
time in training this man the elemen
tary principles of soldioring during the
time when we ought to be repelling the
enemy. It requires true patriotism to
train ones self and others in time of
peace, when there is no reward for such
service, when no one stnnds bv to ap
plaud, and when the npprecintion of
the public is usually lacking."

ever-changing arjpect of the lake, caus
ed by the cross currents of air rushing
down through the gorges. This is con
stantly playing havoc with the tracks
of tho boats on the water and sending
the ripples in a thousand directions.
In spots tho deep blue of the water
shades into gTeon and yellow, the result
of the rock boncath shining through.
One absorbing sight ia the reflection of
the rocky sparsely-wooded sides of the
crater, in tho lake.
The members of the party not only
went down to the water 's edge, but
spent a day rowing on tho lake itself.
An oddity of the place is tho formation
of a small crater within the large one,
on what is known aa Wizard's island.
Here, amid boulders and gravel, the
s'.aimch little bleeding , hearts were
found. And r.loitg tho cliffs at the
edge of tho lake were huckleberries and
currants; but nono with the flavor of
those in tho Willamette valley. For
diversion, there w.-.n good fishing, Mrs.
I orter catching tt goodly number of
trout herself.
"There is but one Crater lake," said
Mrs. Porter, "and it has given us
sonietning to think about the entire
winter."
