Did 1t Pay :?

One hundred and thirty-6ve deer hunt
ers have been killed and one hundred ant
forty Others have been injured, several
probably fatally, in twenty-one states
this fall, according to press tabulat'on
| Wisconsin was the chief sufferer with a
total OF twenty-nine dead and twenty
seven injured. Michigan came next with
twenty eight dead and sixteen injured,
New York was third with nineteen dead
and one injured, and thirteen persons
lost their lives in Maine, New Hampshire
and Vermont.
The chief cause of death was the care
less handling of weapons. The man who
shoots every time he sees a movement IN
the bushes was held responsible for seven
teen deaths and ten injuries. The care
less travelling companion was charged
with responsibility for twenty-tour
deaths and nineteen injuries. Thirty
seven persons lost their lives at their own
hands. Twenty-four others wounded
themselves. Sixteen were drowned while
searching Tor game.
In addition to the thirteen persons kill
ed in New England. seventy-two Others
were injured in the hunt that resulted in
the killing of $50 deer. No one was
killed during the open week on deer in
Massachusetts but four hunters were
wounded slightly. One was shot while
bringing deer out of the woods on his
shoulders.
Maine, as usual, leads the norther
New England States in the number of
deer hunting fatalities. Of the eleven per-
sons killed in that State four were mis-
taken for deer and shot by other hunters
six were killed in an accidental discharge
of their own weapons and a little girl
was accidently shot by an older brother
who was cleaning rifle. More than six
ty were wounded in cunning accidents.
The New Hampshire and Vermont hunt
ing seasons were accompanied by one
fatality each. Four persons were wound
ed in New Hampshire and two in YER
mont.-Massachusetts Exchange.

thing handmade is sure to be superior
to what is made by machinery"

generally plays something in the way of
a standard composition. But when any

TA7E were puzzled about the chill

ten minutes before he had been spied
out of doors disappearing with his
pack. He was dressed, as in other
years, in red with white trimmings and
seemed to be dropping bits of red and

The children could scarcely wait to
be bundled inc their outer garments
and set off after elusive Sanity in high
glee. 1t would be useless to tell the
many strange places to which they
were led by his paper trail and where
gifts were eXcavated. The huyloft, hOl-
low tree trunks. even the mouth Of a
muskrat's hole yielded strange packets.
At length all sacks were well filed,
and Santa Claus was overtaken just
in time to prevent his concealment Of

Standardization of Auto.

That STANDARDIZATION is going to play
an even greater part in the automobile
industry than it has in the past. is the
opinion of some Of the closest students
Of motor car manufacture with whom !
talked. In speaking of Standardization
and its future effect on the automobile
industry, Homer Mckee, one of the best
posted men in the motor game in the
Hoosier city. said:
There is no question but that the
future growth of the automobile industry
will largely be determined by the readi-
ness with which the public accepts stand
ardization as an actual fact There are
two distinct tendencies in manufacturing
among automobile makers. the European
method and the American. The European
maker relies on hand work; the Ameri-
can maker on automatic machinery, de-
preston of overhead charges and the
adoption of standardized construction.
"As result of the American method
of manufacture, the American dealer can
sell an exceedingly good car at an ex-
ceedingly reasonable price. The success
full American invasion of the European
continent is made possible by this adop-
ton of standardization. It has been re-
sponsible for the cognizance which the
European manufacturer has taken of our
automobile industry.

Advantage to Users.

1.-THE general impression hitherto has
been that there were only two types of
motor car built in America, and that
these types were the manufactured and
assembled. Any car all the parts OF
which are built in a single factory has
come to be distinguished as the manu-
featured type. The car which Is assem-
bled in a single factory, after its parts
have been built elsewhere. has come to
be distinguished as the assembled car.
The crux of the whole situation, however.
is that there is no such thing as a car
all parts of which are built in single
factory, and it is equally true that the
so-called assembled-type car is rapidly
going out of existence.
1.-The advantages Of standardization
accrue not only to the manufacturer,
but the dealer and user as well. After a
man has driven standardized car he
will find that his opportunities for OBJ
tanning service on tour are vastly in
creased If the parts Of his car are made
by well-established accessory and parts
manufacturers. The large parts makers
who contribute to the construction of the
truly standardized car maintain elaborate
service branches at every town OF i'm
portance throughout the entire country
and these are accessible to the user at
all times"

Requires Much Intelligence.

Heat treatment, defined according to
modern practice, consists of subjecting
the material-steel in this case-to thermal
manipulation-that is, to alternate pro-
cesses of heating and cooling-conducted
in such a manner as to effect the useful
physical properties Of the material. Cen
orally the physical properties of the metal
are increased in value, and heat treatment
may increase all or part of the prop
critics independently of each other. or 1t
may increase some at the expense of
others. The processes of heat treatment
may be subdivided into the following spe-
cialized operations: Annealing. hardening
or tempering, drawing or drawing the
temper and case carbonzing.
The one important thing in a heat
treatment, ! learned, is that a high de-
gree Of judgment and intelligence and an
absolute knowledge of steel are required
to apply satisfactorily heat treatment
methods to the most advantage. This
has not arrived at such excellence as at
work and much time and experience. 1t
has resulted in the improvement Of the
strength and toughness Of steels and pre-
vents cry stal1ization.
It has made possible the use Of the best
materials available developing the maxi
mum physical properties Of these ma
terials, and has greatly increased the eff
cheney OF the present steel parts used In
automobile construction. A number Of
the large automobile manufacturers are
now equipped with heat-treating plants.
which always prove of interest to the Wis
itor when making a tour Of a modern
motor car plant.
Ever since its inception little more
than year ago the Hoosier Motor Club
OF indianapolis has been very active in all
things that affect the interests Of the car
owner. 1t has also given due thought to
the stranger within thy gates.

Testing Out Chassis.

/ had occasion to witness a novel
method for testing out the chassis Of I'M
finished cars which has been introduced
byaseveral Of the manufacturers In this
section. After the first assembly the
chassis are sent to the testing room, fr
which are located series of large wood
en- drums These drums are really pull
leys which revolve under the rear wheels
Of the chassis The front wheels are
placed against two solid uprights which
hold the car steady. From the rear to
the front underneath the floor, there is a
belt which drives an exhaust fan throw
ing a current of air through a funnel and
into the radiator. A heavy brake is car
ried on the drums SO that the chassis
may be run at any speed and. under any
load Instruments are used for meas
uring the horsepower thrown into the
rear wheels.
All cars must develop a certain horse
power, and all adjustments are made by
the testers doing the tests After the in
side test the cars are given a strenuous
road test.
After being tested ON the drums and in
connection with the road drag. the cars
are sent without load on a run Of from
100 to 200 miles, after which they are
finally assembled and given the final al
justment With the strenuous tests be-
fore. the cars are assembled, the work
necessary after the final assembly is re-
duced to a minimum.

Marked Main Highways.

The first season of the club was marked
by many weekend tours over the state
and by the marking OF more than 600
miles of the main highways. within a
radius of 100 miles from Indianapolis.
Tour Committee Chairman f. l. Willis.
Secretary w. 8. Gilbreath and President
James L. Gavin are busy on a plan to
mark all the main roads from border to
border of the Hoosier state.
The plan OF marking is very simple.
Permits have been obtained from the tele-
phone companies and a. white band six
inches in width is placed six feet above
the crown Of the road on every tenth
pole. Thus the tourists crossing the state
need only to know the direction they wish
to travel and the rest is easy. Only the
roads that are main arteries are marked
in this fashion, and all roads lead to and
from Indianapolis.
The crossroads and other highways
that do not lead to the capital city are
being marked with different color. All
danger points. such as railroad crossings.
hairpin turns. steep grades. etc, are
marked with two white bands. The sim
pie method Of marking has excited much
comment among the tourists that have
visited the state. 49,
