curves, leading In un unbroken lino from
the radlntor to tho full belled tonneau

Slnsle Body DeslB.ii.
As the model Id offered only In the

smooth. There are large leather pockets

Cadillac Eight Has
Big Winter Advantage
A device on the new Cadillac Eight that
will bo particularly appreciated during
cold weather is the thermostat that con
trols the temperature of the water In
the cooling system. Tha object of the
device is to maintain as nearly as possi
ble a constant temperature of the water
while the engine Is running.. '.
In connection with the thermostat la a
valve that opens and closes as the liquid
In the thermostat .expands or contracts.'
When the water Is cold this valve ta
closed, and the result Is that th water
in the radiator is cut off vfrom that In
the jackets, surrounding th cylinders.
The main advantage .of the thermostat
In cold weather Is that the quantity of
water surrounding the cylinders being
comparatively . small, ' the motor is
warmed and reaches running efficiency
In a much shorter time than ordinarily.
Without the thermostut all the water in
the cooling system would have to be
. heated before the engine would run well,
whereas, with the. thermostat, only a
email quantity has to be warmed at the
outset, and the thermostat' valve admits
the water Into the radiator slowly, as
the temperature rises In the fluid sur
rounding (the cylinders and opens the
valve gradually.
In the Cadillac Eight a thermostat and
valve are provided for each block of cyl
inders. The devtco Is wholly automatic
in its action.

George Reim demonstrates with his
Hupmobile how easy It Is to climb hills
when the car Is r ght. Reim does not
pick out smooth roads when ha la show

has several tough spots which cannot
help but impress the prospect that the
car Is right.

October is Best
Business Month
for Hupmobiles
"Every man is apt to estimate business
conditions by the results in his own field,"
said President J. Walter Drake of the
Hupp Motor Car company.
"From the flying start that we have
made in the last two months on our 1915
output, I should judge that the outlook
for the year's automobile business among
the cars of popular demand and reputa
tion was more than encouraging."
"Despite the war and other conditions
that seem to have had a more or less
depressing effect on business confidence.
It will probably surprise you to know that
the mopth of October in volume of busi
ness throughout the United Rates sur
passed any month of tho previous sea
son. During this period we shipped and
sold for cash 1,33 cars. To be sure, In the
month of April last we shipped a larger
ttal of cars, but these included some i!n0
that went to foreign ports."
"Notwithstanding the fact that Hup
mobile business has more ban doubled
during the lastf month of September and
October over the same two months of any
previous year in the history of our or
ganization, we are still . behind in our
orders and weather conditions as well as
the enthusiastic deand for the now model
Indicate that a steady demand for these
cars will continue for sojno time to come
and It will be unusually late In the sea
son before we are caught up with our
standing orders." .. i: .j

New Ford Coiipelet Has Arrived
HOOD OF CADILLAC EIGHT
SHORT AS ORDINARY FOUR
Now that the Cadillac Eight is on dis
play at many points throughout the coun-
try," the general Idea regarding the op-.1
pearance of the ear has been revised.
When It was announced that the new
Cadillac would be an elght-cyllnde car1
many people guined the impression that
the cylinders would be sot in line, one
after unother, according to the usual
practice, with a multiple cylinder motor.
Thls( of course, would have necessitated
a hdod of abnormal length. j
As a matter of fact, tho Cadillac cylln-1
ders are arranged In "V" form four on
the right side and four on the left, at an
ansle of DO degrees to each other. The re
sult Is that the total length of the motor
is no greater than that of the average
four-cylinder enclne, and the hood of the
new Cadillac Klght Is no longer than that
of last year's Cadillac. Thus perfect pro
portions ure maintained between body and
hood.

STREAM LINE IS TAKEN
FROM MARINE DESIGNS
"The term, 'stream line' as applied to
automobile bodies has been taken from
marine designs," declares C. J. Corkhill
of the Nebraska Ilaynes Auto Sales com
i sr- ,;uvU) '". 'ti -'s ter- tor' for the
Haynes, America's first car. "A boat
must have 'stream lines' to offer as little
resistance to the motion of the boat as
possible. In order to reduce the friction
between tho water and tho surface of the
boat hull such curves and lines must be
embodied in the boat as would be con
tinuous from the Vw to the stern. If
there is the ellshtest curve outward in the
reverse clrection from the general curva
ture, there is the tendency to set up lit
tle whirlpools and eddies."
AUTO MANUACTURERS
GET ALL NEEDED SUPPLIES
The rackard Motor Car company re
ports that It is able to buy all its acces
sary materials In America, and that tho
European war has not interfered In the
lightest degree with Its access to sup
plies. Ivan Macnulry. vice president and
general manager, attributes this favor
able condition to the effect of the pro
tective tariff, which, enabled American In
dustries allied with motor car manufac
ture to iiiuw from infancy to l.elthy
.maturity In the face of Kurofeati compe
tition. '
