Golf Far From Being
Game for Poor Man

This idea that golf is simple. in
expensive game. which is especially
adapted for persons of moderate means,
is good deal of a fallacy," remarked
a devotee Of that sport Just take my
own experience, for instance. l belong
to a country club some ten miles from
the city and the railroad fare and coach
hire necessary to get there take the
best part of dollar. Then 1 generally
have to buy couple of golf balls, which
cost Is cents apiece. and the caddies
have to be tipped generously to insure
any sort of decent service. After the
game there is usually a round of drinks,
and the appetite excited by the exercise
in the open makes q good dinner a
necessity. BY the time have had
another drink or two and have returned
to the city there is little, If anything left
of a five-dollar bill. Some of these
trimmings could be cut out by a tee
totaler, but you can see that for the or
dinary person the game is no cheap

Chinese Composing
Room Not Like Ours

1t requires a large compartment like
a library room filled with pigeonhole
cases to equip a printing shop in China.
They have no letters but use a block
for every word. Fancy a separate block
for each word in one of our unabridged
dictionaries and the blocks placed in
separate pigeonholes in cases that line
the walls, and you have Chinese COM
posing room.
The blocks are so arranged that the
printer can find the common ones with
out much trouble, but when he comes 10
an unusual word he has to search high
and low, walking back and forth to get
the block that means that word.
Perhaps the word is scientific and
technical and the man has little or
nothing to guide him in his search.
For this and other reasons there is
now great activity in China learning
English and trying to find out how TO
print with letters instead of word blocks
The simple difference between the two
methods will produce great revolu-
ton.

Saws a well-known trade journal
with reference TO the functions or the
carburetor:
Under the circumstances II Is
necessary to regulate the dow OF Haso-
line to accord with the requirements
and in nearly every make OF carbure-
ter this is accomplished by means OF
a float in a receiving bowl, into which
the gasoline enters just as II Is re-
ouired. il being the case that the foat,
having the properly called buoyance,

drawn out by the action OF the mo-
tor. The force which acts TO draw
gasoline out of the fiat bowl OF the
carbureter is called suction; In
other words, the piston, as II recedes
on the suction strike creates
vacuum, and il is this vacuum that
causes a depression around the nozzle
| OF the carbureter, and the hftng
! power OF the depression Is sufficient
TO lift the gasoline up out OF the ori-

When gasoline is sucked out oil

process that brings about the change

MAGNETIC IMPORTANT FACTOR
Its Development Began Long Before
Advent Of the Auto

Long before the automobile became
practicable, the magnetic, which is the
most important part OF the ignition
system OF every gasoline-driven motor
car, was in the process or develop
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-
poraced in the first types by Robert
Bosch, a German inventor.
In the last few years several mag
neto factories have been established
i'm the United States and the growth
Of this branch for the industry has
\ been proportionate 10 that OF the
automobile itself.
While the principle is substantially
the same i'm all magnetos, there is an
endless variety in styles and models.
/ One OF the larger concerns manufaC-
I lures and carries in stock more than
! $50 magnetic models In the lars. r
cities, like New York and Chicago,
