SUPERIOR

The history of the development of
the smotor-car clutch is similar to that
of enany other mechanical devices.
The first idea, carefully thought out
in principle, was abandoned for sub
.sequent and more complicated ideas
before having been sufficiently deyel-
-oped in detail The subsequent ideas,
when put into practice, eliminated
some of the trouble; found in the first
designs, but developed other troubles
of their own even more serious. Find
ing this to be the case, designers re-
turned to their first idea and, develop
ing il more in detail, found in it the
best solution of the problem.
European motor-car designers be-
gan with the cone clutch, but many of
them abandoned it before developing
its utmost possibilities. Expanding
and contracting band clutches, and. Ia
ter, multiple disc clutches of many va
rieties were developed, but none of
these seems capable of furnishing the
ideal coupling between the power
unit and transmission. -.
During the past few years many of
them have returned to the original
cone idea and, after working it out
more in detail, have found it vastly SUI
perior to all other types, MI r..
American designers have, in a few
instances, followed identically this
line of experience Others have not
yet reached the last stage. Pierce-Ar-
ROW designers have never departed
from that first idea, and the Pierce
Arrow cone clutch is the outcome OF
twelve years experience and speciali-
cation. -. =.
The Pierce-Arrow cone clutch COM
bines all these necessary require
ments to a high degree. I'M ... ....
II was the difficulty of securing
smooth and easy engagement that first
decided engineers to try the multiple
disc clutch This smooth engagement
was secured, but only at the expense
of completely, weight, added cost, and
dragging" and lack. of facility to in
spect and repair. -.
Carefully selected and treated leath-
er, an oil ring so designed that a small
quantity of neat's-foot oil is held con-
Stantly in contact with the leather, to-
gether with flat springs beneath the
leather, give the Pierce-Arrow clutch
"a smoothness of engagement unsur-
passed by any disc clutch without any
of the drawbacks of the more complex
designs

specialized Pierce-Arrow cone clutch,

The supremacy oftthe Packard
Three of the new 1914 models have
already been delivered this year. and
another shipment is expected very
shortly. Business men from the main
land never hesitate to say that the
Packard and Cadillac agencies are
the most coveted ones in existence,
owing to the fact of their wonderful
popularity and easy selling qualities
and liberal policies. A few rebuilt
Paekards and Cadillacs are on sale
at the Won Hamm-Young Company's
large salesroom and are being offered
at very reasonable figures.
A great innovation in the truck line
will be sprung on the public in the
form of / "a ton truck. The Won
Hamm- Young Company will soon ex-
hibit and demonstrate something en-
tirely new, which will be great eye
opener to the merchants in Homo
lulu, and which will cause great stir
in automobile row. This will be some
thing new and very substantial and
at a very reasonable price. 1t is away
ahead of its time and is being manu-
featured and put on the market by
one of the largest concerns in exist
ence, and concern which has been
exceedingly successful in this line.
The public will not know of this sur
prise party until the. trucks are landed
here, but when the new "stuff" is
handed out, we will "sit up and take
notice"

Young Company this week consists of

Capt. J.. s. Parker of Schofield Bar
racks purchased one of the new model
81" Buick touring cars, which are
very. popular Just now This is the
second Buick which he has owned and
his selection of a car this year was
prompted by the wonderful record
which his previous car has made.
Mr.. c. o. Hotel purchased four

Business is humming as usual this
week at the Won Hamm-Y dung Com
pany's big plant, and in defiance Of
the times, sales are reported as on
Tie Increase. The various depart
ments are all holding their own and
giving the public the service which
goes with a modern, up-to-date estab,
lishment of this kind
The Won Hamm- Young Company is
paying particular attention TO the ga
raging Of cars, and, with the new i'm
proyements ana extensions under con.
atruction, will soon be in position to
stall many extra cars. The new ga.
rage building will soon be completed,
and his will enable the company to
take on new accounts and store many
more cars than previously. This will
relieve the usual congestion in the
old garage, and will permit gasoline
and oil to be served much more quick
ly than in the past and prompt ser.
vice will be had all around.
Another portion of the business
which has received attention of late
is the machine shop. Few people
realize that the Won Hamm- Young
company has one of the most COM
niete shops of which modern manu-
facturers can boast This welEap-
pointed department has received
many additions during the past year,
and is equipped with the most ad-
panced tools and appliances known to
modern science.
A reorganization Of this department
has lately been effected and a new
manager has been appointed. The
company has been exceptionally for
tunate in securing the services of
Mr. F. A. Gcble, formerly Of Wat.
sonyille and San Francisco, to take
charge of this department. Mr.. Goble
has the reputation of being one of
the most foremost machinist and gas
engine experts of the West, and, al
though still a young man, he has
many years of valuable experience
to his credit, having been associated
with some of the largest and most
extensive concerns in California. Mr..
Coolies hobby has always been me-
cLanies, and this has led him to make
a speciality and exhaustive study of
this advanced and most elevated of
all crafts.
Having such an extensive and well
conducted machine shop to back 1t
up, the automobile repair shop is
commanding a very large business of
late which has made it necessary for
the company to enlarge their forces
and import some new talent in that
line The automobile repair shop has
now numbered among its forces an
expert from most every one of the
most up-to-date and leading manufac-
turers.
A Packard expert is one of the lat.
est additions to this department, this
man having served eight years max
ing speciality of this make of car,
and many new stunts have been per.
formed which have brought the Pack
ard up to- greater efficiency than ever,
The Packard cars are gaining firmer

iarity which they are enjoying. They

PARCEL POST WILL
DIVERT $25.OOO.OOO
TO TREASURY
Cost Of Maintenance Much Less,
Says Lewis--First Weeks Es-
innate Of 100000 Packages
Too Small.
LOWER RATES DEMANDED

Washington, Jan. l2.-The parcel
post will divert approximately 81, 200,
OO0 OF the express monopoly revenue
into the treasury Of the Post office De-
partment during the irst year of its OPP
GRAFTON, according to an estimate to day
by Representative David J. Lewis, of
Maryland, the House author OF the par
eel post act. Mr.. Lewis took the postal
experts estimate of the number of
packages carried during the first week
OF the operation of the parcel post up
on which to base his assertion.
Officials at the Post.office Depart
ment have not compiled the total num-
Der of packages shipped during the
first seven days of the parcel post.
FROM the figures in fifty cities they es-
innate the first weeks shipment will
reach 100000 packages. The totals
for forty-nine cities given out yester-
day were not for the forty-nine largest
cities in the country, but for the largest
cities in each State and for Washing
ton. 1t is believed the fifty largest
cities in the nation will show a BUSH
ness of 100000 packages during the
first week.
The total number of packages
should have exceeded 100000 during
the first week." said Mr.. Lewis.
''There is only one reason that it did
not, and that is because the rates, as L
have said before, are too high and
must be reduced. Rates should be es.
tabished that will bring to the postal
service for transmission all packages
under eleven pounds. Taking the 9, 200,
600 packages to estimate as a basis,
the revenue of the express monopoly
will be cut during the coming year
about 1875, c00,0 900. This money will 90
into the treasury of the United States
for the operation of the postal service
without any expenditure nearly APP
preaching that sum. The total revenue
from the express companies shipping
business is about sl67, 100000, and you
can see that the parcel post will cut
into the receipts Of the monopoly even
under the present rates.
"Of course, no one yet knows how
much Of the parcel post traffic is new,
that is, traffic which has been created
by the new postal service"
