The Franklin people this year lay
much stress on their air-cooling system,
With reference to this, the company
makes this boast, no doubt pardonable:
SfThe simplicity and efficiency of this
new cooling system are indeed wonder
full. The engine cylinders have vertical
hangcs. Around each cylinder close to
the flanges is a sheet metal air Jacket
open at the top and bottom. These
jackets with their extended base form
with the engine boot an air-tight com
partment. At the rear Of this com
partment is the suction fan engine hv
wheel-a new invention Ms fly wheel
fan draws the -.r in large volume
through 't.o air jackets, down around
compartment. The air that passes one
cylinder does not pass any other cylin-
der. Each cylinder is individually
cooled, and each has an equal and large
supply of fresh air. The front fan for
merly used is dispensed with so that
the cooling system is absolutely free of
working parts or complications of any
sort -

conditions generally. Mr.. Calder says

The general manager, Mr. Odell. not
long ago toured Europe in Franklin,
and declared that the total cost of re-
pairs on the continent was so low that
people would not believe him if he
were to tell them that it was only $1.50.
The Franklin was also run through from
New York TO Salt Lake in fast time,
and withstood the trying test without
falter.
Altogether, the display of the Con-
solidated should attract much atten-
ton
