TRIED TO DRAIN AIR.
Driver Fooled by Mechanism of the
Franklin Car.
By III. II. FRANKLIN,
President Franklin Auto IL

The folly OF looking for radiator on
an air-cooled car was realized few
days ago by an automobile garage en-
pioye in Faribault MINI. He spent
about three hours one cold night trying
TO drain the radiator OF a Franklin car.
The automobile is question is owned by

Company Of Minneapolis. He had busi-

PTichard left for a hotel. where a no;

But the garage man, although he worked
about three hours trying TO find the stop
cock in order to drain the aforesaid ra-
diator, was unsuccessful.
When Mr.. Prichard went for his car
the following morning the garage EN-
ploye was awaiting him, and admitted
that the joke was on him. Mr. Prichard
believes that his friend will not endeayor

chaser of a Baker electric gets mod
ern car Its bevel gear shaft drive is
no experiment. as many makers OF chain
drive cars lead you to suppose. Years
ago the Baker company fOresaw that
shaft drive would be the ultimate trans
mission, and for the past eight years they
have been building shaft drive as well
as chain drive, until two years ago. when
they discovered the means Of transmit
ting more power from the motor to the
wheel through shaft than by chain and
therefore they have discontinued the MAX
ing of chain-driven cars entirely. The
purchaser of a chain-driven car today will
have All obsolete machine next year. Chain
drive will not last and has been discarded
entirely in gasoline machines
A writer in the Literary Digest pays
this tribute to the Baker electric:
Another Tribute.
There is no motor car like an electric
for pleasing woman and no electric
like the Baker. It has beauty Of de-
sign and contour which no chain-driven
car can possess. And it is noiseless. A
highly refined mechanism and shaft drive
render it the quietest Of all motor cars,
and the most efficient. Its recent record
of 244ls miles on a single charge with
Edison batteries (the worlds record) is
unapproached by any other electric"

SOLID TIRES IN FAVOR.
Manufacturers Plan to Expedite De-

A movement is rapidly gaining ground
among truck makers to do away with de-

as this usually happens when the motor
truck is needed most, it inconvenience
the delivery Of goods.
In order to do away with these delays.

Automobile Club of London.
Selected at Random.

A committee of mechanical experts
appointed by the club selected three
Cadillac cars at random from the London
storeroom These cars were driven to
Brooklands speed course and as pre-
liminary were run twenty-five miles on
the track. The three cars were then en-
tirely dismantled, even to the removing
bf every nut, bolt and screw, and the
parts were mixed in conglomerate heap
To add to the severity of the test. eighty
nine parts in which extreme accuracy
was most essential were discarded and
locked up at the clubhouse. Duplicates
were taken from the stock of spares and
mixed unfortunately with the others.
Next three sets Of parts were selected
from the heap to reconstruct three cars
regardless of the cars from which the
parts were originally taken. The mechan-
les, still under the eyes of the technical
committee, set about reassembling and
were allowed the use of only spanners
and screwdrivers. No files or even
emery cloth were permitted yet every in
dividual piece fitted into it's place as per-
fectly as in the original car. After the
reassembling was completed two cars

ROAD RACE PLANNED
Contest in California to Be
Blue Ribbon Event.
AUTO RECORDS MAY FALL
Famous Drivers Will Pilot Cars In
Oakland Panama-Pacifc
Speed Meet.

Preparations are rapidly nearing COM
pletion for an automobile road race over
the Alameda county boulevard February
-. which promises to take rank with the
blue ribbon events of the country. While
the east is buried in snow and thou
sands of cars are laid up for the winter.
the California drivers are tuning up their
machines for this great contest. Nearly
a score of cars will compete in this race,
which will be divided into three separate
contests Arrangements are being made
for the closing of the roads over which
the race will be held and for the policing
OF the highway on the day of the event
by state troops
The course over which this race will be
held is composed of the finest stretch
of boulevard in California. 1t consists
Of an irregular parallelogram along the
valley and foothills of Alameda county
between San Leandro and Hayward. One
circuit of the course is about 1919 miles
The road throughout most of the course
Is wide and the turns for the most part
are long and easy. With the exception
Of four turns that are almost right an
giles the entire course can be covered
al nearly top speed. Although the course
Is fast, it's general topography is such
as to test the skill of drivers and the
endurance of the cars. Part of the route
lies along the undulating foothills of the
coast range mountains but the grades
are nowhere serious

Jesus


The students of Fargo college were
entertained by Dr. Beard this morn
ing, in chapel by a, lecture on The
Personal characteristics Of Jesus.
In powerful language he described
the characteristics of the master mind
of all time %EIis intellectually, His
originality, His university. His beauti-
full and simple style have endeared
Him In the hearts of all humanity
said DR.. Beard. His originality has
perpetually established the christian
religion and His universal style APP
peals to every man, regardless of ma
tionality. regardless of creed and posi-
ton in life"
In conclusion the speaker declared,
Jesus is the master mind and soul
Of the planet. His name has place
far above all names. Let us give
Him His just place In our life and
hearts,"
This concludes the series of lectures
on the characteristics of Christ, de-
livered by DIR. Beard.

Tho study Of EnaIIah.

Chicago Record Herald: It is a la
mentable fact that ability to use the
English language correctly, idiomatic-
ally and gracefully is seldom found
among young people who have passed
through the high schools. The forma-
ton Of the National Council Of Teach
ers OF English is an attempt to remedy
this deficiency. and every man or wom-
an whose ear has been offended by the
barbarisms of common speech will hope
II may lead to better methods Of teach
ing. Yet the fact remains that young
and old are more Influenced by the
language used in daily life and In print
ed matter not OF the textbook sort
than by rules and examples. however
carefully studied.
The general use Of good English by
adults would make it vastly easier for
the young to learn to speak and write
well. Responsibility for existing con-
ditiOns cannot be placed wholly on the
teachers, though modern education Is
undoubtedly diffueive and concentra-
ton Ii needed. Americans Of foreign
birth who learn English from books
and contact with cultivated persons
usually speak more correctly than the
native born college graduate. This Is
partly because they are more ambt-
tious for excellence In the language.
Their children. however. may easily fall
into our elipshod use of English. Why
not cultivate the intelligent foreigners
attitude toward English?
