or two of the Michigan companies
which have not had most prosperous

the following excerpt from a warning
editorial in the Autocar. published in
England and on the continent as an
authority on motoring matters. The
editorial says, in part:
What we have to bear in mind all

the war. Europe has done comparatively

markets, not to mention those beyond
the seas, it must keep in mind that one
of its valuable assets has been that it
has led in designing; and although the
makers may imagine that the 1914
models which they had when the war
began are good enough to sell again
when 1t ends will find themselves
hopelessly outdistanced by the Ameri-

"The electrical system, which has
given such splendid satisfaction on
many Of the highest priced cars dur
ing the past three seasons, is a sep
arate unit system embracing a gem
orator for charging the battery. and a
motor for cranking the engine. High
er electrical efficiency is obtained
from each Of the units by building
them separately and a higher crank
ing speed Of the engine Is developed.
Better mechanical construction IS
also possible by using the separate
motor than can be embodied in the
combined type.
The power is transmitted from the
starter, to the engine by means of a
silent roller chain running In an oil
bath and driving an overrunning
clutch mounted on the crank shaft
sThis clutch is very similar to the
coaster brake clutch on an ordinary
bicycle. When the engine Is being
cranked the transmission Of power
from the starter to the engine Is the
same as that from the pedals to the
rear wheel OF the bicycle. After the
engine has picked up the action is
exactly the same as that OF coasting
on a bicycle.

OUR BAsEBALL TEAM

HARRISBURG is now represented
in the International Baseball
League, apparently by a team
well worthy of all the support the
fans can give it. 1t is hardly to be ex-
pected that daily attendance will be
as large as that of yesterday, but it
must be consistently large. if the team
is to remain in this city. Newark lost
the club and whatever advertising
value it carries with it because the
people would not patronize the game.
1t takes money and lots of it to run
a club in the International League.
The quality of baseball is next to that
of the major leagues and it remains
to be seen whether Harrisburg is in
terested sufficiently in that kind of
sport to make the gate receipts pay
salaries.
The Telegraph believes that 1t is.
The outlook is bright and 1t is to be
hoped after so many Harrisburg peo-
pie have put up their money and

N ing ungrateful and forgetful
Dou htlessi the United States
counts if brought to book for the
shameful manner in which the nation
has neglected many of its distin-
guished citizens. But it is not always
so. To-day. for instance, 135 years
after he led his command to victory
over General Corvallis redcoats at
Guilford Court House, n national
monument was unveiled on that bat
tleheld in honor of the memory of
General Nathaniel Green, the heroic
figure in command of the Colonial
forces in the South during the stirring
of the American Revolution. Green
it was who broke the backbone of the
CORVALLIS offensive and sent him
hurrying for shelter to Wilmington,
n. c.
Greene played a conspicuous and a
from the colonies of Rhode Island,
Delaware, Maryland, Virginia. North
Carolina and South Carolina took part
in the battle Both State and Federal
troops participated, among them the
Kentish Guards, of Greenwich, r. l.,
of which General Greene was a char
ter member.
The monument was erected with
funds appropriated by Congress in
February, 1911, and its dedication is
the elimination of a movement begun
more than 90 years ago to honor this
Revolutionary hero. The bill for the
appropriation first was introduced in
Congress more than a score of years
ago and was re-introduced at every
subsequent session until it's final pas
sage.
Some historians have declared Gem
eral Greene the ablest soldier of the
Revolution next to Washington. Dur
ing the latter part of the American
colonies struggle for independence
General Greene won many victories
over the British forces in the Carolinas
with the aid of Generals Marion,
Sumter and Pickens. 1t was after
these reverses that CORVALLIS decided
to transfer his activities to Virginia
The result was his surrender at York
town on October 10, 1871, which
virtually ended the war.
