MANY CARS TO RACE UP
BIG HILL ON LONG ISLAND

According to George E. Darling, Sec
retary of the Automobile club Of Port
Jefferson, l.. l., entries for the hill
climb to be held there on Saturday,
June 25, are coming in at a rate that
augurs we'll for the success of the
clubs initial affair. Dealers and pri-
vate owners are displaying keen in
terest in the events for which their
cars are entered, and now that the
course is nearly finished many have
taken the opportunity of trying out
the hill.
A number of car owners have asked
the management to add an event in
which cars of 231 to 300 cubic inches
piston displacement can compete, and
in all probability one will be added to
the list of the fifteen events already
listed.
The Port jefferson hill will be well
policed under the supervision of
Charles v. Platt, sheriff of Suffolk
county who has devised a plan that
will keep the spectators at safe dis
tance from interfering with the con-
testants. During the past few years
several hill climbs have been robbed
of success by the swarming on the
course by spectators. The Automobile
club of Port Jefferson is doing every
thing possible to eliminate all danger
to contestants and spectators.

The most efficient conditions under
which n gas engine can be run is
when the cylinder walls have a con-
grees Fahrenheit.
The so-called gas" as It comes
from the carburetor. is not a true gas,
but is simply very small globules of
gasoline held in suspension in the air,
much in the same manner as one sees
the fine particles from an atomizer.
Gasoline is a very complex sub
stance, but for all practical purposes
may be considered as hexane &C H14,
and the chemical reaction in a gas
engine is about &C H14 Il 9.5O2 equals
6Co1 : TH2O. That is, when ignit-
ed, atoms of carbon from the gaso-
line unites with II atoms of oxygen
from the air forming molecules of
carbon doxide, and the hydrogen re-
manning from the gasoline unites with
more of the oxygen forming watery
vapor
To get this union. and get it quick,
the gasoline must be in molecular
form. If in small drops, only the MOLE
culeS on the outside of the drop can
be reached by the oxygen at once, and
those on the inside must wait until
the outer ones have been burned off
before they can get their turn at the
oxygen. This means q slow burning
mixture, and q great waste of gaso-
line, because there isn't time for those
molecules at the center of the drop
to get in position where the oxygen
can reach them before they pass out
the exhaust.
This loss occurs, more or less In all
gasoline engines, but varies much in
different types
Warm gasoline vaporizes much more
readily than cold, and it has been de-
termined that with a cylinder wall
temperature Of about 375 degrees these
drops" of gasoline which are taken
Into the cylinder from the carburetor
are split up, by the heat on the COM
preston stroke, into a more nearly
molecular condition, bringing each
molecule of gasoline in closer contact
with its atoms of oxygen. necessary
for combustion.
The temperature of the so-called EEK
plosion" goes to 5000 degrees or more
with a full throttle and good compref
sion. OF course this is for an instant
only but If no provision was made
for taking care of this excessive tenn
perature the engine would soon become
overheated.
OF the total heat generated. consid-
cradle amount passes out the exhaust,
but a good portion is taken up by the
cylinder walls, and this latter must be
taken care of by radiation to the air.
All engines pass this heat to the air,
whether they be air cooled or water
cooled, the former directly and the lat

AUXILIARY EXHAUST NEW
DEVICE FOR AIR COOLING

In the cooling system of the Frank
lin automobile engine. a device is uti-
lized which contributes to an unusual
degree to the efficiency af the system
of air cooling. From the time of their
first motor car the makers of the
Franklin have been consistent advo-
Gates of air cooling In connection with
this each cylinder is provided with an
auxiliary exhaust valve, which does
nearly three -fourths of the work which
is done by the main, or single, exhaust
of most automobile engines.
This auxiliary exhaust is so placed
that it opens at the base of the COM
bustion chamber at the completion of
the power stroke. Through this valve
is discharged Immediately II per cent
of the hot, dead gases, leaving only 20
per cent to go up through the cylinder
and out through the main exhaust in

ASSESSOR MALLON.

The County Board of Assessors,
after full investigation of the case
of Assessor Mallon, of Fort Lee Bor-
ough, has decided that it can do moth
ing in the matter The assessor was
believed incompetent, but the Board
could do nothing towards removing
him in the face of the present law.
Mr.. Mallon was charged with mixing
up the assessments in a portion of
Palisade property, but it was not
shown that there was any intent on
his part to commit wilful wrong
This is, no doubt, a sensible as we'll
as just way to look at it. 1t is un-
fortunate, however, that the assessor
was not more properly equipped for
so sincere a task 1t is vital to the
interests of every community that its
property be assessed on a basis of
absolute equalization, and no man
should offer for this task unless he
is absolutely sure of his fitness. Mr..
Mallon has many friends who hope
he will profit by the lesson which has
been taught him, so that the same
trouble may not occur again.

SURE ENOUGH SIGNS.

There are just enough signs of ac-
tivity at every point of the compass
around these parts to indicate that
old General Prosperity is again in the
saddle. All over town and around us
he is directing his forces. He is en-
trenching himself in the most prac-
teal way by building houses, laying
sidewalks, making the finest macadam
roads all through Palisade, from the
east front to the western slope, and
making things hum generally. That
is the way to do things SO let us all
forget our other troubles and help
the General along. We can do it in
no better way than by feeling good
and talking right about Palisade. Put
away your hammers unless you are
going to build house

a man alone in the great frozen
North, with all of his faculties alert,
should have been on the lookout for
exactly the things Cook and Peary
both saw Why had not other men
seen these same things? 1t is a fact
that the writings of other explorers
bear similarity in telling of things
seen UP to a certain latitude, but
none has ever told of the identical
phenomena that Cook and Peary
both saw. Herein lies the meat of
Governor Browns contention, and it
is reasonable as we'll as logical con
clusion. 1t is the one perfectly sound
analysis of the controversy that any
man with ample knowledge of the
subject has dared to put forth. He
does not deny that Peary visited the
pole, but he proves very strong case
in favor of Cooks having been there
ahead of him.

GOVERNOR FORTS SPEECH.

At the opening of the Union
League Club in Hackensack recently
Governor Fort made one of the not
able speeches of his career. Among
other things he said:
"As people of these United States
we have the greatest reason to be
vitality concerned about our public af-
fairs and to maintain deep interest
in public men. With a population
that will at the next census be oo,ooo,-
600, and soon be Ioo,ooo,ooo; and that
before thirty years more will be $780,
100000, you can see how important it
is that we as citizens should be deep
ly interested in all matters connected
with the advancement and upbuilding
of this vast country You can see the
necessity of helping by an intelligent
interest the men who are placed in
public places and must face great
problems"
The point the governor was max
ing was the necessity of organization
in order to prevent the perils of party
disunion. He believes in party pur-
ity, but advocates purging when nee
essary, holding that the great prin-
ciples of Republicanism will emerge
stronger than ever from any scourge.
Governor Fort comes more nearly be
ing political idealist than almost
any man in New Jersey, and his adj
ministration will undoubtedly go
down in the records as one Of the
most sagacious of the long line.

was a wise move A great many
cities throughout the country have
taken similar action, and smaller
communities everywhere are follow

not appeal to the small boy or to
many of the larger ones. Even the
grown-ups are fond of fireworks, and
nothing makes quicker appeal to
the imagination than a great pyro-
technic display. If it were not for the
danger to human life, of course, the
public would not cry out against the
ordinary fourth OF July fireworks

COOK AND PEARY AGAIN.

The Cook-Peary controversy has
again taken on renewed interest. Gov
ernor Joseph M. Brown, of Georgia,
appears to have given the subject some
little thought, and in a recent signed
statement puts forth a very able de
Tense of Cook, and says that if Cook
is fakir, Peary is a fraud Governor
Brown goes down into the core of the
subject, and draws very fine analogy
between the printed statements of both
explorers on emerging from the polar
regions. 1t is this almost startling
similarity of statement, their descrip-
tons of the physical conditions that
existed near and at the pole itself,
which make Governor Brown so
cock-sure that both explorers are to
be equally honored or equally de
nounced. There is no authentic rec
ord, insists Governor Brown, al
though the reports of all of the other
explorers who have gone to the
Arctic and Antarctic regions for a
period of over seventy-6ve years, of
anyone else ever having seen the
same things that were described by
both Cook and Peary with such fidel-
ity and such unparalleled similarity
He insists that without collision
these descriptions of the polar con
ditions could not have been a mere
coincidence. 1t looks reasonable that
