Like many another Detroit manufacturer, this cor-
poration has been to war.
It is a matter of pride to us that we were able to so
utilize our resources as to become one of the two largest
producers .ot. engines for Uncle Sam's famous Military
Class B trucks.
Now, with our government work virtually completed, we
are back to undertake the tasks of peace.

HEAVY DUTY II AUTOMOTIVE
ENGINES
are now available for installation in trucks and tractors.
We are continuing the production of the mighty Mill.
tary Class B Engine—the "Big Boss" of the Motor Trans.
port fleet.
And we have added two less massive engines--Models
HA and IIAA.
Both new models are on the Military Engine lines.
Their sturdy proportions, large bearing surfaces, and
generally advanced design are characteristic of their
breed. Ileavy Duty is their middle name.
Possession of this line enables us to completely cover
the field of trucks from 1 to 6 tons, and of tractors from
two to four plows and upward.

ZIONIST BAZAAR

Crowd of 8,000 to 9,000 Packs
Spacious Arena Auditorium—
$4,000 Realized for Palestine
Funds.

A Y Bank Statement
l i l ,
All attendance records at the Arena
Gardens were broken last Sunda)
night when the Zionist Ball and Ba-
zaar attracted a crowd that filled the
hall to its capacity, thus ma king this
the biggest Jewish event ever staged
in this city. The manager of the
Arena estimated the attendance at
between 8,000 and 9,000, claiming for
the Bazaar the record of the largest
crowd for his hall. A profit of over
$4,000 was realized, to be divided
equally between the Jewish Natiohal
Fund and Zionist Restoration Fund.
The most attractive booths at the
bazaar were the cake booth and the
fishing pond. The special costumes
worn by the workers in these booths!
acted as a special attraction to buy-
ers. The medical booth, in charge of
the lied Mogen Dovid, the Jewish
Red Cross, also drew the interest of
the audience. In addition to these
there were also candy, picture, litera-
ture, cigar and miscellaneous booths.
A special booth was also given the
fortune teller of the bazaar, Miss Rose
Cohn, of Highland I'ark.
The musical program arranged for
the event had to be canceled at the
last moment, due to the enormous
crowd that continually called for the
music to continue the da::cing. The
committee hopes to be able to pre-
sent this program at a future event.
The official auctioneers of the bazaar
were Mr. l'ereira, Ralph Paul, Daniel
Lewis, Mr. :Mandell. and Samuel Hey-
man. A complete list of committees
follows:

That. the Philomathic of today
possesses the same high standard of
membership as in the past and that
its meetings are just as full of pep,
spirit and enthusiasm as in former
years. was the opinion expressed by
Mr. Harry Slavin, an alumnus of the
organization, who was the principal
speaker at last Sunday evening's
meeting of the Philomathic Debating
Club. To permit the members to
attend the Zionist Ball and Bazaar at
the Arena, the meeting was adjourned
at an early hour, and the program
scheduled for the evening. a debate
on the question, "Resolved, that the
Natural Resources of the United
States Should Be Owned and Oper-
ated by the Government," was post-
poned until next Sunday's meeting.

For the three days starting Sunday,

is a fascinating tale of college days.
The adventures of Cuthbert Trot-

a lively associate at a dinner in honor
of a chorus lady and her friends, is
the basis of a plot that involves the
hero in some of the most amazing
adventures. He finally extricates him-
self by his fistic prowess and wins the
girl. Doris Lee is the girl.
For Wednesday and Thursday, Alice
Joyce in Charles Klein's masterpiece,
in picture fOrm is said to be better
than the stage production. A capable
cast has been selected to support Miss
Joyce in this feature.

Marsh, in her latest play, ''The Racing
Strain," is the magnet that will draw
her countless admirers. It is a tale
of Old Kentucky, with Miss Marsh
