His friends will nresent at the great military review at Longchamps on July 14. Willing masculine hands prevented a fire disaster a short time ago in the little town of Le Puy, where was sit uated the convent of the Clarist Sis ters, one of the most rigorously closed orders in France. Despite the associa tion law, which dissolved the organ lzation, a few aged nuns were per mitted to remain at their old home. The aged sisters, rather than break their rule which expressly forbids that a man should set foot within their walls, would have allowed themselves to die a horrible death rather than summon masculine help. When fire broke out in the convent the sisters fought it desperately; then, hot wishing to solicit masculine assist ance, took refuge in the dormitory, the door of which they barricaded. The fire made rapid headway, and ln a few min utes their refuge would have inevitably burned unless a policeman, aided by courageous townspeople, had broken POWER AND SILENCE Model 43 Five Passenger Touring Car The Buick has always been known as a car of great power. This power, or to be more exact, ECONOMY OF PO WER, has been for seven years the central idea in the construction of Buick Cars. During; that time stability of frame arid parts. to support this power with steadiness and silence, has been the object of endeavor at the great mncK plant. , : This has been accomplished the Buick today, besides being a car of giant power, oper ates as smoothly and silently as it is possible for a motor to run. To bring about the perfect workmanship and adjustirient that makes this possible all parts except magnetos, carburetors, coils, lamps and tires are manufactured at the Buick plant. No essential parts of running gear of motor, chassis or body are entrusted to outside makers. .bvery Buick is a harmonious piece of machinery from rear axle to radiator, designed and built under one engineering and constructive supervision. j Five Models, priced according to power and size $850, $1,000, $1075, $1250, $1800.

' The packing-case manufacturers of aris have jetitioned the government to take, some step to stop the growing practice by French exporters of im porting packing cases from the United States.
