NO LIMIT TO CYLINDERS?
When Is Increase in Number
Going to Stop? Asks Engineer.

With the gradual increase from time
to time in the number of cylinders
in the automobile power plant one Of
the questions occasionally heard IS:
"Where is it going TO stop"
Automobile history records the step
from the one cylinder to two; from
two to four; from four to six, and
from six to eight, the latter being
represented by the latest Cadillac pro-
duction.
Writing on this subject in the Auto
car Imperial Year Book, published in
London, w. G.. Aston, an English en-
gineer, comments in these words:
ut may now be asked why not con
tinue to multiply cylinders and gam
an ever better result. The an
swer to this is very simple. Eight
cylinders are only two more than SIX,
and the Improvements which they pro-
duce are very marked. Now the next
size of engine would be twelve
cylinder. or half again as many
cylinders, which would not possibly
give 80 per cent. better result, and so
on.
A glance at the tongue curves will
show that as the cylinders are in
creased the difference in the charac-
teristics of the curves tends TO be-
come less marked Drawn to the same
scale. the curves of a sixteen-cylinder
engine would hardly be distinguish
able from the twelve, and twelve
scarcely distinguishablc from those Of
the eight. For ordinary purposes,
therefore, the eight may be considered
10 be the ideal as well as the practical
maximum, for motor car work at all
events"

Nowhere il his voice more felt than

placed just where they can be used
nd will do the most good.
As for self-starters and electric light
ing-they all have 'em. Driving with
1915 model is merely a matter of
steering, shifting gears and touching
buttons. For 1u.tOU starts the car,
a button lights this and that and every
other lamp. a button shrieks a warn
ing 10 the pedestrian. And If shifting
gears is too great eXertion the motorist
can have a car in which even that is
controlled by buttons. Perhaps in time
buttons will be educated to handle the
wheel.
To the motorist who recalls shows
for some years back. one Of the strik-
ing features this year has been the
desire of manufacturers to get into
the low or medIum-p priced classes.
With hardly any exceptions, the high
priced cars of two or three years ago,
and even of last year, have smaller
brothers differing only in size from
the expensive type. II marks con-
cession to the trend Of the times and
to the compulsion of stiff competi-
tion. As a result, IT is possible TO
buy cars Of old established makes at
prices that were out Of the question
under the old order, and to enjoy in
them the same measure Of comfort
and steadiuess and freedom from trou-
bic that made the various makes
famous.
Apart from the cars, the show is a
veritable wonderland for the man IN
terested in automobile detail. There
are hundreds Of booths displaying
everything from spark plugs TO mo-
tors, from wheels to tops, and from
motoring gloves to fur coats, also for
use i'm the car There is also sec
ton devoted 70 motorcycles. ard II
was significant that ti.e interest in
the two-wheelers served TO keep this
part Of the exhibition almost as
crowded as were those devoted to mo-
tor cars.

GERMANS FLANK RUSSIANS
Kalser's cavalrymen Move Around
Right Of Cars Men on Baltic
Coast.

London.-A sensation has come from
the east, where It is announced that
German cavalry, which apparently got
around the extreme right Of the Rus
SLAMS, had invaded the Russian Baltic
provinces. There has been no indica-
ton in what force the Germans are
operating, but It is presumed here that
tie cavalry is simply looking over the
ground to find out what opposition
force landed at Polangen, in the prov
ince OF Courland. would meet with. In
mllltery circles here It is asserted that
this cavalry, however, can interfere
with the Russian communications and
give the famous Russian Cossacks
something to do.
At the other end OF the Russian line
the Russians are reported to be con
tinuing slow progress in the Uzsok
Pass, and to be repulsing Austrian at
tacks on their flank In the direction OF
stry.
In reply to the Zeppelin visit to the
county OF Suffolk, England, allied air
men have visited Belgium and bonn

Nothing Of importance has occurred

Germans claim sim to hold bridge
heads on the User canal at Het Sas

all the official reports, are on the Of

report repeatedly refers to the repulse
Of allied attacks.
