Benefit Of FIsxibiIity.

In a series Of experiments which have
been made recently. an advantage
which has not been fully realized here
tofore by automobiiists has been prov
ed for the flexible attachment of the
mechanism Of motor car 10 the
frame.
This form of construction. originally
devised by J. Frank Duryea, has, nat
uraily, been most highly developed
in the Stevens-Duryea car. In which
II was first used and IL il with the
Stevns- Duryea that the tests referred
20 have been made. The advantages
with which ''three-point support has
always been credited are that II pre-
serves the alignment OF the driving
mechanism. no matter how the chassis
may be thrown out Of level ny road
inequalities. and thus saves wear and
tear on the whole car, including the
tires. and makes riding easier.
1, seems. from the Investigations Of
the stevens Duryea people. that ease
of riding In more affected by the
method Of attaching the engine and
It's connections to the frame than has
been realized. II In easy to see that
with rigid attachment. II the car
iurches because one side of the run
ming gear II suddenly raised higher
than the other in rough going. the
lurch Ia aggravated by the weight OF
the engine, which Ia thrown violently
I'm the direction in which the car tips.
With flexible attachment, while the
engine moves with the chassis. or
course, II swings in Its three-point
support almost with the motion OF ii
hammock, 30 that stress and Joiting
are avoided and AZ 1t swings back
when the car rights, the weight of
the engines helps preserve the balance.
This gradual movement. instead OF the
sudden action caused by displacing
heavy weight. increases materially the
smoothness OF running and ease Of
riding
