FARMERS CAR
Dodge Brothers design
ed this car early in the
war with a definite pur
pose. They sought, primarily,
sure, steady, consistent
performance, freedom
from repair, and a very
low haulage cost.
Dodge Brothers have no
hesitation in saying to the
. farmers of America that
they can buy this car with
absolute assurance of the
outcome. " ,
It will prove a long-time
steady paying investment
to any individual or cor
poration who requires
swift and safe transportation.
It will pay you to visit us and examine this car

mutters ao large to settle that no man
can feel that his mlud can compass

"I think ono would go crnssy if he
did not believe in providoiiej. It would
be a mazo without a cine. Unless thero
were some supremo evidoncc we would
despair the result of human counsel.
So that It is with genuine sympathy
that 1 acknowledge the spirit and
thank you for the 'generosity of your
address. ''

son to present this address and I have
been delighted and stimulated to find
the growing and prevailing interest in
the subject of the league of nations,
not only a growing interest merely, but
a growing purpose which I am suro
will prevail, and it is delightful that
members of the government, which
brought this nation into the war be
cause of the moral obligations based
upon troaty should be among those who
have brought mo this paper, because
on the other sido of tho water wo have
greatly admired tho motives and sub
scribe to tho principle which tuat-
od tho government of Great B.itain
in olioying that normal dictate. You
have shown what we must oruiiizo,
namely, that same force and sense or
obligation and unless wo organize it,
tho tiling that wo d.o now will not
stand. I feel that so strong that it is
particularly cheering to know just how
strong and imperative tho idea has be
come.
Felt it Privilege
"I thank you very much, indeed. It
has been a privilege to see you person
ally. 1 was just guying to Lord Grey
that we had indirect knowledge of each
other anil that 1 urn glad to identify
him. 1 feel as if 1 had mot him long
ago, and d had tho pleasure of match
ing minds with Mr. Asquith yesterday.'
in meeting toe various il .'legations
at tho American embassy, the prosi-
lent received assurance from Arthur
Henderson, Viscount Grey, Herbert
Asquith, Viscount Bryce, the Arch
bishop of Canterbury and others that
they would support his peace program.
" Ytour words have touched our
hearts; freedom of the world is near"
said Urey. ,
"('ailing upon the moral influence
of the world, you have summoned the
most powerful of all weapons, the
archbishop said.
A memorial from rivo million work
ers, presented to tho president, said:
"Vou have spoken the thoughts and
principles of the silent masses every
where. We support your views, which
have fortified the will and clarified
the vision of organised democracies.
In accepting a memorial from tho
Trades Union council, presented by Ar
thur Henderson, the president said:
"My whole heart is in this matter
and 1 will do everything to attain the
objects we all seek.
