AUTO CHURCH oN WHEELS.

A motor pulling a church on wheels is one of the most recent de- velopments Of the Velie Motor Vehi- sc1e Co, of Moline; Illinois. This un- iuue vehicle was built for the Catho- lie Church Society and was the re- suit of the combined ideas of practf- cal engineers and designers. The mo- tor power is furnished by a VeIie 45 horse power roadster.
 The chapel portion is lightly but strongly built, and is equipped with regulation automobile axles and wheels. Pneumatic tires being fitted for both the chapel car and the road ster. The construction of the chapel car is such that the end may be op- ened, steps let down and the of11ciat- ing priest may hold church wherever the chapel car stops. The altar and all the paraphernalia used in worship are inside the car. The worsf1ippers may be seated upon the ground or upon benches at the rear of the car. The front half of the chapel car con- tains a room with two windows. a sacristy and sleeping chamber and a room is also found for the driver.
 This church on wheels has been shipped to Brownsville, Texas, and the designers say that there is no place in Texas or Mexico where the unique car will be driven but what it can make the roads with east.

NO NEW MoDE.

tRumors have been persistent of late that we were getting ready to launch for fall trade a, Mo1ine-Knight selling for several hundred dollars less dent W. H. Van Dervoort of the Mo- line Automobile Company.
 This rumor like most others which spring from some unknown source, is not only absolutely false but ridic- uIous.
 .Instead of worrying ourselves about another model we are focusing our entire attention on the fifty horse power car and making every effort to keep abreast with the ever increasing orders.
 ssTo bring out another model would be suicidal. It would disorganize our production and if a plant ever need ed to keep it's working force organiz- ed it is the Moline Automobile Com pany in view of the instantaneous de- mand for the Moline-Knight, follow ing it's record breaking 337 hour run on the testing block of the Automo- bile Club of America.
 seThe only goal which we are striv- ing for is to, make the present model as near perfect dependable and sat- Aisfactory as human brains, energy and automatic machinery are capable of =
 While the Moline-Knight emotor presents a number Of unusual feat
 
 of special interest, due principally, to the fact that 1t is the only Knight having the thermo-syphon system.
 Mo1ine-Knight designers . have made a special effort to assure ade- Quate cooling. In the Moline Knight the cylinder heads are covered by a removable plate over the four cylin- der head an unusually ample water space. The cylinder head is a cone shaped cap with spark plug in it's center and which sets into the cylin- der to a depth of several inches.
 The space between the center and sides of the cap are in the water circuit so that the upper end of the two reciprocating sleeves have water circulation on both sides and the up- per half of the spherical combustion chamber is surrounded by water jacket.
 The reciprocating sleeves through their entire length, except at the ports and at their extreme lower ends. are surrounded by water.
 The cylinder cover plate forms the upper water manifold through which water passes to the radiator. The lower connection from the radiator has two branches, one leading to the forward end and the other to the rear end of the lower edge of the cylinder block. By this means an equal flow of water is assured to each cylinder.

GATN IN PACKARDs.

Shipments of Packard motor car riages and trucks during. the first four months of 1914 exceed the to- tai of any four corresponding months since the company started in Business. The total shipments of motor. car riages to customers was 21 per cent. greater than during the same period of 1918.
 The entire output of "2 3S'' cars for spring and early summer has been sold and customers already are placing options for cars for fall de- livery. A number of ss4-48" touring cars will be available for several weeks.
 The company's record March was followed by a big April. The record week ended April II with 160 motor carriage sales Tn one day specifica.- tions were received for B cars, the value of which exceeded $30O,O0O.
 Last month was also the most pros porous April ever experienced by the Packard truck organization. The sales of heavy duty vehicles showed an increase Of 60 per cent. over the same period of 1913. One of the quantity orders Acame from the New York State Highway Commission which purchased battery of dump trucks for use in reconstructing the state roads.

THE ESSENTIAL QUALIFICATIONS

tsForesfght, correct Judgment and se1f-control are essential oualihca- should attain said Geo. Fl. Peck of The Peck & Lines Co, distributors for the Haynes, Americas first car, in this territory.
 eff you feel that you lack self confidence it is we'll to have some one teach you to drive step. by step. In the first place, don't expect or even try to learn everything at once. Have your instructor take the car to some unfrequented street and then, while he controls the throttle. learn to steer while moving along slowly in high gear
 Hold the wheel firmly but snot too tight Don't try to go in an abso- lus ely straight line; turn the wheel slightly and see for yourself how sen sitive it is by trying to dodge small objects in the road. By practicfng in this manner for some time you will wear off the nervous feeling and will be surprised at-tiae ease with which a big. powerful car may pe steered.
 The next step is learning to ma nipulate the clutch and the gears. Shut off the motor and with the car standing still go through the opera tions of changing gears time and time again, just as though the carN were running. Then, after starting the motor, throw out the clutch pedal, Sn1It t40 nS1l10 lever 1nLO 1TSL speed position and release the ciutchA pedal very slowly while your instructor op- crates the throttle. Repeat this ov- CT and over again, see how slowly you can start and stop the car be- fore ever attempting to go into the higher speeds.
 Always exercise great care in shifting gears with a. hand shift lev CT. Be sure that the clutch pedel is in it's downmost position before nov ing the lever. On the other hand, when going from one speed to an other don't wait too long as the car will lose its momentum.
 With the Vulcan electric gear shift this is taken care of n1echani- cal1y, that is to say. the gear cannot be shifted until the clutch has become disengaged.
 sOn the Hoynes cars equipped with this device. .ftt is merely necessary to touch a button on the steering wheel corresponding to the desired speed. and then, when you wish to make the change, 1t is only necessary to de- press the clutch pedal. Suppose you are moving along in high; the next change will be to second: you merely press button No. 2 and the car con- tfnues to move along in high until you are ready to make the change, 1t be- ing necessary to operate the clutch pedal only at that time.
 Drive slowly and cautiously when learning. Keep the hand throttle set for a slow speed and practice using

A GASOLINE RECORD.

Twenty-four and four tenth miles to one gallon of gasoline is the rec ord just made in Chicago by a Chan dler Six equipped with Rayt1eld car buretor.
 This ins itself is sufficient to give both the car and carburetor a record far in advance of any similar perfor- nance by "a water cooled motor, on the ground of economy alone. But the most remarkable part of this Chandler Rayfield feat lies in the fact that on the same afternoon, with the carburetor adjustments all soldered fast, the same car followed it's record breaking economy test by showing a speed of over forty-fve miles per hour. by climbing the famous Hub bard's Hill on high gear from a standing start and showing speed of twenty miles per hour at the tops and finally by thrott1ing down so low on high gear that for stretch of sew slowly that the speedometer could not register. The speed was less than three miles per hour.
 The car, d stock Chandler Six, used for some time as a demonstrator by the Thos Js Hay Co, and in no way specially prepared for the test, was fitted with a Rayfield new model car buretor It carried full equipment including windshield and spare tire, and was occupied during the test by four passengers. Tires were S4x4. rims demountable Thee ar weighed without passengers s0s0 pounds, with passengers 3700 pounds. At the start the carburetor adjustments were sol- dered and even the dash adjustment was removed. A special one gallon tank was filled with ordinary gaso- line, showing in the cold temperature a specific gravity of 50 degrees. The day happened to be decidedly unfa- vorable for such a record. The wind was strong from the northeast and the temperature but 52 degrees at the start and only 50 degrees at the nn- ish,
 The one gallon of gasoline carried the car 24.4 miles during a period of one hour and 15 minutes, with an av- craze speed of 20 miles per hour
 After the economy test had been scomplefed, the fuel was rep1enished and, without any adjustment. the power, speed, and .-throttIing down on high gear performances followed in quick succession.

Is my judgment that most executives

ton.
Foot ball is, of course the popular
form of athletics at the present time. al
though track also has a large number
of devoteeS. The fine weather recently
has meant outdoor practice under the
best conditions. 1t has also proved a
lure for those who are not engaged in
these forms of sport, and large numbers
of Washington school boys and girls
have taken walks.

morrow morning. Because OF a double

Sested conditions, the hours are to be

Surgeon Galloway's Suggestions.

Suggestions to overcome the danger,
actual and potential. of similar condi-
,ions as obtained aboard this ship are
made by Surgeon Galloway. He recon-
mends:
The medicine chests of these vessels
should be required to contain a speci-
fled desirable minimum of drugs and
dressings before clearance is granted
Fishing vessels should not be ex-
cmpted from 'slop chest requirements,
us at present.
1T might be we'll to make available
TO masters of such vessels a pamphlet
of simple instructions for the care of
ordinary injuries and ailments. as Is
done now for officers of the revenue
cutter service
Other means failing to compel i'm
provement, this might properly be
made the subject of a circular letter,
,alling attention of masters and own
ers to the necessity of lettering these
conditions and the means therefor,
particularly as a matter of good bust
ness policy"

ORDERS TO BEGIN WORK
ON RIVERS AND HARB0RS
Projects Already Begun to Be Con-
tinued Under the Appropria-
ton Bill.

Following the signature yesterday
by President Wilson of the river and
harbor bill, Gen. Kingman. chief of
continuation of work on about ITO
parts of the country, for which he has
sought the approval of the Secretary
of War. Gen. Kingman is very desir-
Gus Of preventing any deterioration of
these public works, some of which are
of vast Importance. and therefore ap-
pealed to Gen. Wotherspoon, who is
acting Secretary of War, to approve
the expenditure of the $4,000 900 ap-
propriated by the river and harbor act
in accordance with the direction of
Congress.
Authorized by Secretary Garrison.
Gen. wotherspoon referred the sub
5ect by telegraph to Secretary Garrison.
who is in New York, and the Secretary
has replied authorizing the chief of
engineers to proceed with the work
upon such projects as it is absolutely
necessary to pursue to avoid heavy
loss by deterioration, leaving the allot-
ments under the appropriation to be
passed upon by himself when he re-
| turns to Washington next Monday.
Gen. Kingman has accordingly sent
Geographic instructions to fourteen of
the army engineers in charge of river
and harbor work to proceed with the
| absolutely urgent projects in their
care.
Points Probably Included.
| The War Department has not made
public the list of works selected for
prosecution, but these instructions were
sent to the following named officers
| Col. Black, at New York city; Maj.
ioungberg, Charleston. n. c.; Maj.
Sickle, Wilmington, \. c.; Col. Gimm,
Philadelphia; Col. Eangitt, Savannah;
Maj. Ladue. Jacksonville; Col. Keller.

and Col. Potter. St. Paul
Although Gen. Kingman will give no
details of the allotments recommended
by him there is sound reason for the
! belief that the projects for the i'm
provement Of the Potomac and Anacos-
tia rivers at Washington are provided
