The Dividing Line. | Advocating the painting of 2 white line along the center of all paved highways throughout Indiana as a method of teaching drivers of vehicles to keep to the right at al Itimes, the Hoosier State Auto association the state wide association of automobile owners, has issued a statement in which it is asserted that several states are already adopting such safety lines with excellent results. : ;

- “It has been found that a broad white stripe down the center of a concrete or asphalt road just natural ly keeps the drivers to the right of it,”the auto association states. *‘At night this is especially valuable to motorists who have to pass other cars with bright headlights. The dri vers can always see the white line and each knows that if they keep well to.the right of it they can pass each other safely. Such a line is also valuable in passing another vehicle proceeding in the same direction.” ,

780 STUDEBAKERS ARE SHIPPED Big Plants at South Bend and Detroit Bending Every Effort to Meet ~ County Wide Demand ‘ When the whistles of the mammoth Studebaker plants at South Bend and Detroit sounded on the evening of May 29 and 20,000 Studebaker employes started homeward a new record for a single day’s production and shipments had been made, for on that day 780 Studebaker cars were forwarded to Studebaker dealers through out the country. Of the total 18% were driven overland. :

This record represents a single day’s production and was achieved without pérmitting cars to accumulate purposely to establish a new mark. The only extra incentive involved was an effort to more adequately meet the insistent demand from every section of the countty for more Studebakers but this is a daily endeavor because of the thousands of unfilled orders on hand for immediate shipment.

While the production of 780 cars in one ‘day establishes a record for Studebaker, the total is only a little above . regular, daily shipments since the additional facilities provided by seven new Studebaker factory units completed and tooled and manned early this Spring, reached capacity production. Although Studebaker’s preset output is 15,000 cars a month or at the rate of 180,000 cars annually, the demangd is far in excess of produc: tion and additional factory facilities, begun thsi Spring and to cost $5,000,000. are being rushed to completion, ;

~ Btudebaker manufactures six-cylin der cars exclusively i nthree models the big six, the Special Six and the Light Six which are offered in twelve body types. 780 cars in one day there fore represents the biggest day’s ship-: ‘ment of six-cylinder cars ever made by any manufacturer. i { The increasing popularity of Stude ‘bakerc ars which is a subject of com‘mon conversation even outside of the ‘automobile itdustry, is attested by the yearly record of production and sales. In 1918 Studebaker sold 23,864 cars. 'The following year sales increased fto ‘a total of 39,356 cars. In 1920 sales mounted to 51,474 cars. : 1921, the year of general business ‘depression was the biggest in Stude ‘baker’s history (up to 1922) when sales reached a total of 66,6443 cars. Stated otherwise ‘the sales. of Stude‘baker cars in, 1921 were 29 per cent greater than in 1920 notwithstanding the fact that the total number of cars sold of all other makes, except Ford ‘was 40 per cent less than 1920. Studebaker again established a new, record in 1922 with the sale of 110,269 cars. ‘This year will see still another Studebaker record established, Up to July 1 Studebaker will have preduced and sold about 80,000 cars or an in crease of 50. per cent over the same period of 1922. | " “There are a number of reasons for the universal popularity of Studebaker cars.” according to H. C. Erwin, local Studebaker dealer. {
