Where Do You Live?" anti "Chocolate Soldier" fame, and adopted ; the latent Parisian rage— that of paint- i Ing- her dog to match her gowns. Not | only her dog, but her automobile n« well, tftie says, should be In harmony. While in Atlanta last week she promenaded through the atreeta with her dog painted in black and white stripes and wearing a dress of the same pattern. Manager Smith of the Oakland com pany in Atlanta, seeing and remember ing her, asked the lady to take a ride In an OaklaixS. “What are you trying to do, Miss Drew"" asked Smith. "What’s the idea?” "Why, this is the very latest fad,” replied Alma. "Heretofore we have gone out to walk or drive without the slightest attempt to dross appropriate ly. Now. Imagine the awful contrast of colors between a green dre»s, a brown dog and a yellow motor car. "The proper way for any one with an artistic eye ie to make the colors of the three blend in pleasing harmony. Now, take this Oakland car for In stance. It just happens to tit tn with my costume, because it is black with nickel trimmings. My dog and gown are black and white, so don't you see the reasoning’’ "If the car were green, my gown should be green and the dog painted In some color that will harmonize, not necessarily green, but an effect that ■will not be in contrast. I am much happier and my rides are more enjoy able when I am not guilty of commit- Inga color crime " Miss Drew is shown posing with her dog and Oakland car. ENGLAND'S ROADS ARE PERFECT. SAYS FORD MOTOR MAN Nowhere are there roads better than on the British Isles, according to P. L D. Perry, manager of the Manchester fac tory of the Ford Motor Company, who hns been spending a few weeks at the Detroit factory "The good roads of England and Scot land are famed the world over," declared Mr. Perry ’’ln Ireland the roads are not •o good, but there they are better than those in the United States. "Through long and persistent work the unexcelled roads on the isles have been laid. Each separate community Is re sponsible for Its own roads and each takes pride in their condition "A recent help to good road main tenance is the spending of the entire au tomobile tax on the roads. The taxes on the care are high, too It costs the owner of a Ford S3O per year There also is a tax of .06 per gallon on gasoline With the money collected from these taxes and some additional appropriations there never is a deficiency in the fad Improvement treasury "The tax is levied on the theory that automobiles are the hardest on the roads and therefore should pay the most t< ward their upkeep "English roads are practically dustless 1 and have been ao for several years As rapidly as possible tarred macadam sm - i facing is being laid You can travel all day on one of these roads without look ' Ing like a helper in a flour mill when you I finish your journey.” KEEP AWAY FROM EDOt It is well known that bj far the great Mt number of u< , id« ntn have < ■ curved I akidding or slumping on higi eml ui>f merits, the <ar overturning .<nd pinnlnr its <><<upui<U< underneath This Is due usually to two causea, akldditig on << wet narrow road, or a slumping bunk under 1 the wheels, In attempting to turn out It 1 must be kept In mind that each wheel oi j the averag< touting car cart b a a load of from l.Ouo to 1 Mio pound* iherefort <t.n led with sul< J * ppi «a< I ' » edge 1 a hgh itankeu mad winat in *<< oi Ur * i wia<l.M.

That the woman of the family decides the purchase of three out of every four automobiles sold in this city was the statement made by J. YV. Goldsmith, Jr., the Hudacn dealer, today. "The history of three out of four of our sales is about as follows,” said Mr. Goldsmith. "The man in the household narrows down the choice to two or three automobiles, which he believes to be me chanically right. Almost invariably, at this point the woman of the household is brought into the prospective purchase, by reason of her good judgment relative to automobile beauty, comfort and con venience. "Women like beauty in connection with a car, and more thoroughly appreciate that beauty when it is achieved in a sim ple manner. This is one of the points for which the Hudson has considerable reputation, for the simplicity of its lines is worthy of the attention they have attracted. "The long, beautiful, harmonious lines of the new Hudson 37 have aroused such enthusiasm on the part of women that, in a number of instances, the Hudson's beauty has been the deciding factor in the purchase. "Another point that is particularly at j tractive to women is the easy riding qual l ities of the car, and in this connection the L2-inch Turkish type upholstery of the Hudson has decided purchases in this car’s favor. “Thousands of women are driving Hudsons in all sections of the United States, because of the extraordinary re sponsiveness of the car. "A woman's judgment in selecting an automobile —one that she will be proud to ride in—is usually sound, and I feel that the male head of the house Is wont to take her advice.” isl SWk /"'4l .
