If this situation develops the only possible way for the allies to prevent a weary and disheartening winter campaign, it is argued here, will be a successful assault on the German communica- tfons. Such an assault, it is admitted by the allies. will not be an easy mat. ter. The Belgian army, in marrying the invader, prevents the dispatch of any great part of the German army now occupying Belgium to reinforce their countryrnen in France; but the Belgian forces are not strong enough to interfere seriously with communi- cations while the allies must break through some part Of the line or turn the German right before they can eff fecttvely threaten the communications Of the invaders.

CAUSES OF CARBON DEPOSIT
Explanation of Troubles Which at
Some Time or other Have Puz-
zIed Most Auto Drivers.

II there were enough air in the
cylinder at the time Of explosion to
consume all the carbon in the cylin-
der there would be no carbon deposit
There are two agents which contain
carbon, and which are present in the
cylinder at the time Of explosion.
These are: Cd mixture of gasoline
and air, and CD a quantity of lubri-
eating OIL Both these are sources Of
carbon trouble and both are neces-
sary; therefore, it is the object of the
operator Of the car so to make his ad-
justments and other arrangements
that the carbon troubles will be kept
to minimum. First, let US consider
the question of carbon deposit from
the fuel-that is, the gasoline and air.
Theoretically, it would take about
eight parts of air to one of gasoline
to make a mixture that would burn
without leaving any residue. Prac-
tically, we are using on the average.

thirteen parts of air to one of gaso-

centage of unused air.

MEET CALL FOR CHAUFFEURS
Thousands of Men in Eastern States
Are Licensed to Drive Au-
tomobiles.

The extreme to which automobiles
have brought new calling appears In
the fact that there are approximately
SO 900 chauffeurs in New York state.
During the last eight months more
than 10000 automobiles have been
registered in that state, gain of 3d.
900 over the corresponding period in
1912. Receipts from registrations and
from chauffeurs' licenses now reach
a total of $1,235,O00, an amount equal
to the aggregate receipts of 1910 and
1911. Turning to Pennsylvania, it ap-
pears that the number of licenses
there has risen to 10000. as against
25,200 issued in 1908. 1t is claimed
that this makes that state rank fourth
in the number of its automobile IL
censes. New York being first, Cali
fornia second, with over $4,000, and
Ohio third, with $4,000.

1t has a coldly neat but obviously la

glass. Cretonne covers are service
