Entered as second-class matter at

der act of Congress, March 1, 1879.

There is no mistaking the sentiment
of the American people and when the
President said he would meet force
with force until Germany was whip
ped, or words taken to mean the same
thing, he spoke the sentiments of the
people of the land. Americans did not
start this wnr, but they propose to do
the finishing.

It is announced that the disappoint
ments regarding the airplane program
while great, need not, be considered ir
reparable, and that it is hoped to have
substantial progress made by the mid
dle of the -summer. Americans are
not discouraged because someone fail
ed them in the matter of producing
airplanes, because they know they
have the men who can produce them,
but it is a little discouraging not to
have the incompetents responsible for
the failures promptly let out. Noth
ing is going to discourage the Ameri
can people, or shake their confidence
in llnal triumph, but they have a right
to demand that it all be accomplished
with the least possible expendituie ot
American blood, therefore they de
mand the selection of competent men
for all work.
It i evident that Secretary MnAdoo
does not believe in newspaper adver
tising, or even time-table publicity,
for getting passenger business. It is
admitted that the government needs
the business, and in face of the fact
that the railroads resorted to adver
tising for the purpose of convincing
people of the advisability of traveling
to certain resorts, such advertising is
ordered discontinued, in the interest of
economy. It will bo an opportunity of
observing the result of advertising on
! the passenger business of the railroads
! of the United States, and it may be
I that the cutting down of expenses may
lie accompanied by such a falling away
of revenue ns will result in a distinct
1 loss from a financial point of view.

gists, physicists, mechanical engineers
and civil engineers, in the Science and
Research Division, Aviation Section,

A Wonderful "Buy"
ONLY those who look somewhat closely into
comparative motor car values fully appre
ciate how niiii'i the CiRant Six gives
yet there are enough of these people to have
built the reputation of the Grant Six as "a
wonderful car for the money."
And there is no question that this is so.
The overhead-valve engine alone is enough to
make it a notable car. When the many other
mechanical features are considered, and also the
size, the beauty and the riding comfort are
added, the Grant Six looms up above any other
car of comparable price.
We believe it is the most economical six in
existence. Thousands of owners average 20 miles
to a gallon of gasoline, 1)00 miles to a gallon of oil
and over 7000 miles on standard makes of tires.
Right now while spring invites you
to outdoor life and the entire summer
is before you and you will make greatest
use of your Grant Six, place your
order and make sure of a car.
