largely responsible for this evolution
ary reform
The Cole eight is to-day in a better
state of final development than any
new four or six motor that has ever
gone into Cole car and Cole cars
have undeniably been famous for their
good motors. The carburetion of an
eight cylinder depends largely upon
the design of the manifold, and its
relation to the general construction of
the motor. The scissor type connec-
ton rod employed in the Cole eight
permits of maximum bearing surface,
which is far in excess of the bearing
surface in positively successful skies
and fours of equal piston displace-
ment.
THE extreme simplicity of the oil
ing system in the Cole eight motor
makes it permanently positive and eff
cient. The continuous flow of power
in the eight makes it possible to gen.
crate vastly more horsepower with
greatly reduced weight, which from
an engineering standpoint means that
the eight is headed in the right direc-
ton.

also produces considerable saving in
fuel over past designs of equal piston
displacement. The eight practically
eliminates gear shifting and any prac-
tical motorist knows that gear shifting
eats up fuel. In a recent 400-mile
gruellng test of the Cole eight from
rain to zero weather. under the oh
servation of prominent accessory men,
with five people up, baggage, two
spares, skid chains on all around, top,
windshield, and all curtains up, driv-
ing at an average speed of thirty miles
an hour, fifty-five miles of which was
done at the rate of forty miles an
hour-no gear shifting was made on
the entire trip and more mileage per
gallon was obtained by this car than
any four or six of equal displacement
has ever obtained under anything like
similar con ditions.
The public should bear in mind
that what they want. the engineers
will be able to produce. The Cole
eight is an example,.
Thomas b. Lyter will assist Mr..
Myers in the demonstration and sale
