which was sunk by a German sub

was entertained as a guest on board
the U-boat, and over a glass of wine

The American captain said he was
bound home from London when his
ship was sunk. Not being armed, he

This Is a progressive age and the intelligent public are buying Dodge
cars. Why? Because they are made of the very best material to be had,
selected by experts, and every effort employed to make this the best car
on the market.
Economical when It comes to gas consumption Selected by the U.
S. Government on account of Its durable qualities, and the only car that
ever made the trip successfully across the Valley of Death in Southern
California.
Noiseless and sensitive, will glide over the hills on high like a rein
