MAGNETIC IMPORTANT FACTOR.

Long before the automobile became
practicable. the magnetic which Is the

ment The first magnetos were OF "a
low-tension variety and were used Ia
connection with a make and break
device designed by Daimler, the
pioneer builder OF gas engine motors
for vehicles
From that time on the development
OF the magnetic was rapid and this
form OF ignition came into general
use among automobile builders early
in the present century Practically
all the existing types today are based
on the fundamental principles inCor.

CARBURETOR. ON AUTO,

The primary function OF the car
buretor, as every owner or user oil
an automobile knows. is 10 regulate
the flow OF gasoline. in the process oil

the requirements II a motor were
TO run at constant speed and power
IL would not be necessary to use a
carburetor az all as the gasoline
would then be required at constant
rate OF flow, and this could be accom-
phshed by the simple method or ad'
justing a valve so that the now
under certain head would limit
the flow OF the liquid 70 that de
manded by the influx OF air at con
slant rate
But, owing to the constant change
in the speed of motor. this simple
method Is not practicable. The power
demanded also varies according TO
the condition of the road and other
conditions. So the use of a car
buretor has come 10 be quite essen

.AEROPLANES TO Be

Plans Practically Complete for Estao'

Mediate Future.

Since the memorable experience OF
Darius Green with his dying machine,
the world has been interested III

whose father owns woodshed or a
barn has AT one time or another ex'
perienced an overwhelming desire TO
emulate the birds by flying from the
roof with parachute OF his own

with disastrous results.
But these misfortunes have by no
means crushed the yearning, out

10 more persistent effort The lure
OF the air is irresistible, and the first
decade OF the twentieth century mas
witnessed some feats never dreamed
OF In the widest imaginings OF the
writer OF weird fiction.
Within the past two years the Eng
lish channel has been trayersed by an
aeroplane on two occasions. Inc
Alps have been conquered though
the daring aviator lost his life In the
effort, a penalty paid by many a
brave man whose love for the game
overcame his discretion in some in

great possibilities. possibilities per
haps that even the most sanguine
have not yet dreamed OF. and there
are great things in store for the com
ing generation in this field OF human
endeavor.
Detroit. as the center OF the auto
mobile business, has naturally at
tracted the attention OF aeroplane
makers, now that the manufacture
of aeroplanes has reached the pro-
portions OF an industry. and il is
learned that preparations are now
practically completed for the estab-
lishment OF an aeroplane factory
here. A company has already been

duct OF this department OF different
paint works in the city has shown an
increase of about 500 per cent in the

W. L DOUGLAS TRUST PLAN
Manufacturer Thinks Government,
Should Obtain Publicity by
License System.

Large business organizations have
come to stay. We cannot go back to
old conditions We must meet world
competition. Large concerns can pro
duce goods at lower cost than small
ones. Germany favors large CORPORA.
tions. The method of the present ma.
tienal administration is to dissolve
the great organizations and make
them smaller. which is a backward
step. There should be no limit to a
corporation doing a large and legiti.
mate business. such as would be pos.
sible under the licensing plan which
FAVOR. writes w. L. Douglas, former
governor OF Massachusetts. In the
Boston Herald.
Prejudices against corporations
merely because they are big. perhaps
must be done away with They give
labor better returns. They cheapen
product and thus benefit the consum.
er They give opportunities to small
investors who get returns otherwise
unattainable. They employ able
young men who have no capital at
all, but who receive handsome sal
aries for their ability and service.
In place of the Sherman law it ia
my opinion there should be depart.
ment at Washington to grant licenses
to all manufacturers and corporations
in this country who do an interstate
commerce business.
The law should be made so clear
plain and definite that 1t could not be
misunderstood 1t should require all

statements should be given to the
public end certified by a public ac
