AUTOMOBILE HAILED
AS A TIME SAVER
StatiStician Points Out That
More Than HaIf-BiHion
Dollars Was Saved in 1914.

One of the big newspapers of the
country recently made rhe editorial
statement that the average physician
with a scattered practice saves time
worth so each day he uses his automo-
bile.
The editor in question went on to
prove that motorists having great
financial interests will show an average
saving far higher than he professional
man. but. for the sake OF argument,
credited an average saving of 81 a
day in time to the 1880 900 American
cars now in use. This means that
more than $50. 600 coo will thus be saved
TO Americans in 1914
Astonishing figures remarked an
automobile maker Of prominence. but
who VIII venture to dispute them?
What car owner will deny that his
time is worth so little that his car
doesn't save a dollars worth OF It a
dav. no matter how little ne Tides?''
In carrying this line of thought to
its logical conclusion. the editor in
question pointed out that on the esti-
mated investment in American auto
mobiles Of 8, 90. 90. 900. a return of 3 l-5
per cent is shown. And he asks, What
other investment OF this magnitude
gives such q return
An automobile manufacturer recently
made q careful inquiry to learn what
percentage Of his cars were used to
material extent in the owners business.
II was learned that 81 per cent were
thus employed, and most OF the re-
naming l9 per cent were admittedly
used to carry their owners to and from
business.
There is a maxim" said this maker,
that time is money. How much
more than this saving of time-which is
money-the automobile means to mod
ern civilization is incalculable. II in
creases the value of prosperity by an
NH lating distance. il Is a wonderful
tonic and preserver Of health, and II
employs, directly and indirectly. a ire
mendous army Of workers.
There are $50 automobile msnufac-
turers in this country. employing nun
dreds OF thousands Of men, mostly
skilled mechanics. There are upward
Of L. 90 local dealers. and another 5000
10 1000 garagemen, who do not sell
cars There are hundreds of makers Of
automobile accessories. representing
thousands upon thousands of workers.
The metal, lumber, leather. glass. rub
Der. oil. and other industries owe
very large share OF their prosperity 10

alone there are eO.OGO chaufteurs.
The modern automobile Is decidedly
not a plaything-nOt A luxury. II is

GAMBLER,
KILLED BY A FALL
Slipped on Steps of Subway
Station Thursday and Frac-
tured His Skull.
MRS. CHAMP CLARK.

NEW YORK, Dec. E.-Richard A.
Garfield. for years the bss.-known
gambling resort proprietor in this coun-
try, is dead at his home, SOS Madison
avenue, from a fractured skull received
when he slipped and fell on the steps
of the Fourteenth street subway sta
ton Thursday. Death occurred last
night.
Canfeld, who was fifty-nine years
old. and an art connoisseur, and almost
his entire time during recent years
was spent in collecting and studying
paintings. and in looking after the
manufacturing interests which he
owned.
Garfield was born in Providence, r
l., OF Scotch-Presbyter1an stock He
was first heard of as a clerk in summer
resort hotels. and while in this occu-
patton he acquired a passion for gam
bling that never left him. even after
he became the proprietor OF gambling
houses. In 1879 he opened his first gam
bling house in Providence. and for half
a dozen years he was successful. but
in lSS0 the authorities came down on
him. His house was raided. he pleaded
guilty to being common gambler, and
served six months in the CranSton jail.
Upon his release Garfield came to
New York, and then his real glory be-
gan. In 1897 he bought the old Sara
toga Club reopened II. and Saratoga
rapidly became the Monte Carlo OF
America other resorts were opened
in Newport and Boston. and all of them
tiourished till 1892. when District Attor-
ney jerome began war on them. In
1897 he retired from all gambling con-
nections.
Garfield acquired a wide reputation
as an art connoisseur. his Judgment
in ceramics and paintings being recog-
nized everywhere. His collection of an
cient vases, bas-reliefS, and potter
OF all kinds attracted attention wher-
ever II was exhibited. He made the
second largest collection of Whistler
paintings in America II was sold 10

price IN the neighborhood of S3OOOOn.

IGNITION TROUBLE
WORRIES MOTORISTS
Automobiles Seem to Forget
That Spark Will Not lump
Large Gaps.

In testing for ignition troubles many
motorists forget that a spark will not
jump as large a gap under compression
as il will in the open air, according 10

mobile schools OF the country.
"A few days ago" remarked the in
s'ructor. 81 found a man who could
not make his motor run lie was GER

he had tested that very thoroughly, he
said. II developed that he had taken
the spark plugs out and had then
cranked the motor over rapidly.
A fat looking spark appeared, so he
decided the ignition was right He then
spent half an hour with the carburetor
AS matter of fact. the trouble was all
in the ignition. This man did not take
into account the matter of compression.
Many experiments have proven that
a spark will not jump as large a gap
under compression as it Will in the open
air. When you take out your spark
