Magnetic Ignition Proves Its
Superiority in Big Race

1t is seldom that the accessories in
a big automobile race are given credit
for the way In which they withstand
the excessive strains, but the average
motorist can readily imagine the ad-
verse conditions under which an
ignition system. for instance. perform
its functions, especially when fitted to
the high speed racing cars such as took
part in the 5OO-mile Sweepstakes at
Indianapolis on May 81;
The small capacity, high speed en-
gines which are coming more and more
into popularity are putting a greater
strain upon the ignition system than
formerly applied because, among other
things. the engines are being called
upon to turn over at much higher
speeds. In addition to this, the ter
rife external heat and excessive vi
bration are extremely trying to the
vital parts of the magnetic. for they
are called upon to perform mechanical
operations at higher speeds even than
that at which the crank shaft of the
Knowing well these conditions, rae
ing drivers are now unit in their
selection of the ignition equipment
and for the 500-mile race, the Bosch
Magnetic was selected in every in
stance. making the third big race run
this year in which this type of ignition
has been selected by every driver to en-
ter the race. That the selection of
Bosch was wise one was proven by
the fact that the race was completed
without one driver complaining about
his ignition system, while the fact that
a few worlds record was established,
tnearly ninety miles an hour for 500
miles continuous running) proves
without doubt, the efficiency of the
Bosch Magnetic; for there can be no
question as to the Importance the
spark plays in the ultimate result. A
weak thin spark would not fire the
mixture as effectively as the fat, arc
like, penetrating spark produced by a
high tension magnetic.

To PLACE DETENTION
HOUSE AT ALMSHOUSE
County Commissioners Considering
Site on Poor Farm For Pro-
posed Juvenile Quarters

Dauphin. countys new house of de-
tention may be erected after all on
site on the almshouse farm.
Announcement to this effect was
made at the office of the County
Commissioners to-day in connection
with the final determination of the
authorities to provide adequate quar-
ters for housing the court juveniles.
Furthermore, it is quite probable that
the new place of detention will be
built for the purpose and that no
uarters will be rented. Provisions
for school instruction will be provided
and the city will be asked to join
in the maintenance of the house by
providing teachers in return for the
keep of the school truants.
The County Commissioners finally
agreed to erect new house after a.
conference yesterday with the Dau-
phin county court. The Civic Club
had been the prime mover in this
plan to obtain these quarters and
committees have frequently waited on
the commissioners to urge this. A
conference on the subject will be held
Wednesday with the clubs commits
tee and the chances are that the COM
missioners will be taken round to
view several talked-of sites.

Villa through his representatives that
he was favorable to the President S

General Carranza's reply, it was
said, was being prepared by Jesus
Urutia. constitutionalist foreign min
lister, and would be delivered to John

ably by Monday. The reply, the ad-
vices said, would be "appreciative,
friendly and serene" in tone. Carran-

to assume ascendency in Mexico and
most likely to receive recognition by

OVERLAND SPRINGS
GREAT SURPRISE
Model SO, Formerly SLOTS, I'm
proved and Reduced to $3.50,
Features Announcement

The biggest sensation in automobile
circles so far this year is the cut of
1925 in the price of the Overland.
The largest four-cylinder Overland
produced this year will sell for $3.50.
Specifications show that better in many
particulars 1t is otherwise practically
the famous Overland Model 80 which
last season sold for $1.O75. 1t is lighter
in weight, has more power. an improved
starting and lighting system, one-man
top, head light DINNER and divan up
holstery.
The remarkably low price is directly
in line with the Overland policy of Civ
ing the consumer the benefit of the saw
ing accomplished by the wonderful ia =
cilities of the big Toledo factory. SiA
years of preparation and development
of these facilities have brought the
Overland Company to the point where
they can offer a real family car, COM
bining road comfort and economical op-
Grafton for this low price.
John \. WHY'S president of the COM
pany. stated few weeks ago that the
big additions at the Overland plant
make possible a daily output of 500
cars, or double that which gave his
company first place in the records Of the
AUTOMOBILE Chamber of Commerce.
Overland officials declare that 1t is only
the economies of such a tremendous
so revolutionary.
Model So. as the new Overland is
known, is a large touring car. with a
body roomy enough to seat five grown
persons comfortably. In power, finish,
comfort, equipment and construction,
II is fully the equal of its predecessor.
The thirty-fve-hor motor is
exactly the same as that of last season S
large Overland four. and in view OF
the cars lighter weight the surplus OF
power is even greater. Its cylinders
have a bore of ~ inches and a stroke %
OF Az inches. Experiences of Over
land owners during the past year have
shown the proportion of power to
weight to be ample for all purposes.
The body also is like that of last
seasons Model so. conforming to the
very latest notions in streamline de-
sign. AS in the former model the shell
is of single stamping which Joins SIS
curve without a break in lines to the
slope of the engine hood. The exterior
of the car is entirely smooth. Frame,
runnin- board brackets and battery
box are concealed by the running board
shield. and crowned tenders of heavy
gauge steel add materially to the an
pearance of the car. Concealed door
hinges and inside handles carry out the
smooth effect.

which Lord Northcliffe, believed by
many newspaper men to be the great
est publisher in the world, is the
owner. The charge is made in con-
nection with a statement printed some
time ago about the French army.
1t is held that the statement gave
information to the enemy However.
the prosecution is considered result
of the fight Lord Northciiffe's news
papers have made on Lord Kitchener,
war minister Repeatedly the Times
and the Daily Mail have charged that
the British army in France was not
supplied with sufficient ammunition
and that battles and men were lost be-
cause of this. The charges, with those
made by Lord Fisher against Winston
Churchill led to the reorganization of
the British cabinet Kitchener held
his place. But 1t was considered by
many that the Times charges were
admitted by the government when 1t
took from Kitchener the control of the
supply of munitions Of war and made
