Yancy's prediction for out of door
life in the last few years has been
greatly augmented BY his use OF g.
motor car. Always man of the open,
he formerly resorted to wagon and
team of horses to convey him
through the wilderness or from town
to town on camping trips of pro-
tracted nature. Naturally. these trips
were limited as to territory, for horses
can be relied on only for 80 or perhaps
40 miles day at most. Since press
ing g. motor car into service Yancy now
tours up and down the entire coast, east
and west from county to county, town
to town, and in fact expects to spend
the entire winter in this way.
Yancy's car is well equipped with
camping utensils, including a set Of
bed springs that look to be even better
than fir browse or air mattresses on

The remarkable development in the
automobile industry in the last few
years has brought the keenest engi-
neering ability in the world to bear on
the task of making the modern auto
mobile as effective piece Of mechan-
ism as, possible.
The struggle for greater efnciency
and tor the knowledge OF the value Of
the products that go into the auto
mobile makeup has been carried on to
great extent by the Society OF Auto
mobile Engineers.
One OF the remarkable discoveries
that the society has made Is the fact
that red second growth hickory and not
the white variety is the toughest ana
most resilient and hence the most valu-
able for automobile spokes. This dis
covery upsets the tradition of buggy
and carriage makers. who had always
taken it for granted that the white
hickory was the more desirable and
had used ii to the exclusion OF the
other for years
The automobile engineers discovered
that the specific gravity determined to
a great extent the resiliency of the
wood and that the red was Of the
higher specific gravity. The result OF
the discovery of these engineers has
been that wheel makers now charge Tor
wheels according to weight.
This investigation in reference Ito
second growth hickory is an Indication
Of the great demand the automobile
industry has made upon the skill OF
men and the wonderful influence the
automobile industry is welding in the
mechanical world today.

MOTOR TRUCKS IN aMoyIEsv

There are very few lines of business
that can not find use for motor trucks.
The moving picture business is one OF
the newest fields to be invaded.
The Thanhouser Film company OF
New Rochelle, N. Y, recently purchased
a one ton Kelly. A passenger bus body
has been mounted on the chassis and
the truck is used to carry actors and
actresses to the scene of the thrilling,
but silent. scenes which are sold by
the yard.
Villains and heroes, deadly enemies
and steadfast friends are carried to
the scene of their reward or punish
ment by the Kelly. When scene in
the wilds has been photographed, all
of the actors-the dead and the living
are loaded into. the Kelly and carried
to the scene of the next pictures. And
SO it goes on for miles and miles of
film.

mobile Tire company, at 53S Van Ness
avenue, has taken over the local

BANK OF ENGLAND
RAISES THE RATE

LONDON. Oct, 2.-After prolonged
discussion the directors of the Bank of
England today decided TO raise the bank
rate from Az to per cent as a pre-
cautionary measure to protect the
bank 5 reserve, which had been depleted
by over s10.000,000 this week by exports
10 Egypt. The weekly cousignments OF
gold from South Africa have been alb
sorbed by the continent, where the
scramble for gold continues.
The discount market hardly expected
the advance today in view OF the firm
er New York exchange, but IT was rec.
oguzed that some protective measure
would be necessary in the near future IN
order TO enable the Bank of England
to get the gold arriving from Sourb
Africa and build up its reserve, which
has fallen much below that of last year
The higher rnte, it is expected, will
serve as warning to other quarters to
check their prospective gold demands.
