A Dodge Brothers Motor Car ... A speeding truck
racing down hill and out of control... A collision .. .
Take one look at this photograph. It is
not pretty, to be sore, but it will convince
any sensible man that all steel construc
tion is the only safe construction for a
motor car body.
That is why Dodge Brothers introduced
the all steel body more than eleven years
ago, and this year greatly improved and
perfected it.
In fact, Dodge Brothers art convinced
that the day is not far off when wooden
motor car bodies will be a curiosity.
People will shudder at the thought of
having ridden in them and will thank
Dodge Brothers for the greater safety,
durability?and beauty, tco?of all steel
construction.
A steel body will otuaJ up under impacts
that would crush the average body to bits.
Steel cannot splinter. Steel cannot bum.
Steel is an armor of protection on the
crowded, hurrying highway.

Outwardly, nearly all types of bodies ap

most of them are simply frames cf vrsct!

CUP FIRE GIRLS
As soon as the Boy Scouts bad been
organized the people wanted the girls
to grow up to be helpful and kind j
so a movement was started to orga
nize the girls Into bands, with the
same purpose In mind as the Boy
Scouts.
In the fall of 1911, the Camp Fire
Girls came into being. Their leader
was known as the "Guardian of the
Fire."
Some of the clubs have camping
places in the woods where their mem
bers dress in Indian clothes while
many others stay at home.
One of the clubs were started in the I
city of New York around three can
dles which were named "Work."
"Health" and "Love." The ideals ?C
the Camp Firs Girls are as follows:
Seek beauty, give service, pursue
knowledge, be trustworthy, hold on
to health, glorify work, be happy.
The founders of the organisation
have grouped together the ambitions
and Ideals of their order about the
camp Are. Fire stands for horns and
the love of mankind. Ever since it
baa been organised it has meant com
fort. good cheer, service and worship.
The order of camp fire Includes
three degrees: The first Is that of the
wood gatherer. The second degree is
that of the fire maker. The third Is
that of the torch bearer; her de
sire is: That light which has been
given to me I desire to pass undimmed
to others. She is a leader, a guide
going before and lighting the way and
making it easier for ethers.
The Camp Fire Girls dedicate their
lives to work, health and love. All
girls who read the Camp Fire Girls
book and like the work and think
health is a blessing and that love is
the greatest thing in the world should
try to live the life of the Camp Fire
Girls

! The hearing held this week on the
