S, The town of Westerly and the New New Haven & Hartford Rail- oompany are on the friendliest possible, under the circumstances, the change has been made and a working week of five days has been inaugu- rated. In reducing the force, the married men were favored and as many of them were retained as possible. Nearly all the unmarried men have been laid off indefinitely, in order that they would be free to secure employment else- where. When business becomes nor- mal again, former employes will be given preference in flilling places in the several departments of the big plant. as demonstrated by the action of the board of trade in passing comas w in, appreciation of concessions by the rallroad company since the mew train schedule became effec- itive. Frank W. Coy, chatrman of the 1gommittes on transportation of the Mabel Brown er!ell Mrs. Daniel Brown of has been granted a decree of divorce from Oscar Martell, of Pawcatuck, on the ground of desertion. They were married about two vears ago, but their companionship as husband and wife was of only three days’ duration.

Since then Mr. and Mrs. Martell have been as _strangers. Over a year ago Mrs. Martell took up her residence with a relative in Crosby, Minnesota, and having attain- ed the age of 18, the legal age In that state, she instituted divorce proceed- ings in her own name, and through the law firm of Shawl & Brown. Al- though there was no desertion on the part of Mr, Martell. he was not op- posed to the divorce provided Mrs. Martell signed agreement that she would release all claim she might have against him. Mr. Martell placed his case with Attorney Herbert W. Rath- bun. The agreement was secured, Mr. Martell did not.contest, and the de- cree of divorce was granted on the grounds of desertion. ;be instructed to tAJu passengers be- i :M e the -wltcher 1s put 'hnck at work in e will be gl to run round tfl of mlcs in phco nn ‘business.

Limousine $3450. \Some of the “Whys” of the Eight-Cylinder Cadillac The superior steadiness of the Eight-Cylinder Cadillac has its source in several causes, each and every one of them This superlative smoothness, in other words, is not left to chance, but is the positive result of positive principles. And these positive principles exert secondary influences, each of which, in turn, contributes to the same desired Translated into the simplest language, eight cylinders in the generation of power. The greater the degree of continuity, the greater the the vibration, of course. primary source of that steadi- ness which makes you forget that an engine is at work carrying the car forward. The power impulses are not “almost” continuous, but continuous, so that you are assured that the riding qualities of the car are as scien- tifically smooth as they can practically be made. And then there are added to the main principle, the sup- plementary advantages which accrue from the very nature of the V-type engine—every one of them tend- ing, again, to lessen vibration. . The crankshaft in the Cadillac V-type eight-cylinder en- gine, for instance, is about 267 inches long, between the outer ends of its rear and forward bearings. Experienced motorists, familiar with the periodi¢ vibra- ton or “thrashng” whch is characteristic in engines requiring a long crankshaft, will recognize immediately the beneficial effect of the lesser length. The cam shaft, which is driven by a silent chain from the crankshaft is likewise shorter, and another tendency toward periodic vibration is thus removed. All of the reciprocating parts, including pistons, connect- ing rods, valves, eic., are very much lighter, a fact STYLES AND PRICES Standard Seven passenger and Five passenger cars, Four passenger Salon and'Roadster, $1975.

SWAN CO., Norwich and New London which in itself contributes very largely to smoothness and absence of vibration. Again, the “smashing” force with which the power im- pulses are ordinarily applied, is eliminated in this Cadil- lac Eight-Cylinder engine because the application of power is distributed over eight pistons—an impulse every quarter turn of the fly-wheel—another element contributing to smoothness. . The impulses overlap so completely that they melt and merge, as we have said before, one into another. When one power impulse is but half way on its stroke, another i{ngz]se begins and the impact on each is relatively gl No severe shock or jar is communicated in these explo- sions. The process is not a succession of hammering blows, but rather like the touch of light.and expert fingers sweeping the key board of a piano with almost incred:isle speed. i The net results is that unique sensation which tends ¢ make you forget the presence of the engine—that sense of buoyance and of being borne forward by some means other than mechanical. The basic power principle would not, of course, exercise its highest efficiency if it were not supplemented and supported by that painstaking construction in every other part of the chassis which is charactenstxc of Cadillac execution. The car is not merely “a” car with a V-type eight cylin- der engine, but an Eight-Gylinder Cadillac with each and every part and function in tune and harmony. We are serenely confident that after the first ride, your ewn expressions of delight will go far beyond anything we may have said in these announcements, or any enthusiasm that may be expressed Ly the Cadillac dealer. i Harry Holmes of Providence were the guests of their parents, Mr. and Mrs. William K.
