'STONEMEN'
WAGE WAR TO WIN
WHOLE CITY TO COD
By Kenneth w. PAYNE

PHILADELPHIA Pa, Nov. i7.-Way back in the
grammar grades We learned that the name Philadelphia
meant The City of Brotherly Love" have just
learned that the name not only means this, but TIL
CITY ACTUALLY IS IT.
The broherly love which William Penn had in
mind when he founded Philadelphia was practically the
same religious emotion which animateS the wonderful
religious revival here Can il be than coincidence
that the community established as the City OF Broherly
Love has become the birthplace OF organization pro-
tossing Just such Christian Fellowship and proms-
ing perhaps TO WIN MEN THRUOUT THE WORLD
OVER TO THE CHURCH?

If Proper Springs Are Built un-
der a Car 1t Makes 1t
Ride Easy.
BY D. SCOTT THOMPSON,
OF the Thompson Garage Company.

-. I. .f.. RI GLEl 2 af..'
The springs under a motor car are
n Of its most important units, but
1T Is doubtful whether the average
automobile purchaser gives the spring
question the thought that is really es-
Bential to his comfort and welfare and
that Of his passengers when making
q purchase. There is far more differ
ence in the quality Of various makes
Of springs on the market than in any
other important detail Of the cars
construction. Yet people know very
little about springs that is the aver
age buyer-so springs are generally
passed over without much consldera-
ton. At least that is the report which
! receive.
The King Motor Car Company has
given to the spring suspension ques-
ton much thought and consideration.
First because we were the original
users of the cantilever type Of spring
suspension in this country; second
because 1t is one of the best assets
OF the King product producing COM
fort and safety for the passengers.
Riding qualities Of the King are one
Of our big sales advantages.
Vibration and shock have been two
problems that automobile engineers
have given much Thought. Noises
were disagreeable to passengers
shocks caused nervousness. Springs
Of improved construction today makes
riding n pleasure. While there are sew
eral types of springs there seems to
be no question but that the two most
important types will be the cantilevcr

Automobile Experts.

foremost motor car magazine of the
address on the eight cylinder engine,
delivered by Charles S. Crwaford,
chief engineer of the Cole Motor Car
Company, before a meeting of the In

sible for the purchase of one Of the

with regard to the extracts from

COLE EIGHT AUTO
WILL BE SHOWN in
LONDONVERY SOON

to be on view at 6, Great Marlborough
street, W., about the first OF Febrll-
airy. MFR. Rothermel will be glad to
show the car to any Of our readers
who are interested in eight cylinder
construction"
Though Mr.. Crawford's paper caused
widespread comment in this country,
its acceptance in England was astound-
ing. Request after request came to
him from foreign writers and engi-
neers for copies Of It. II was quoted
from at length in numerous publica-
tons. The Motor devoted a large
part of two issues to 1t, and many dis
cussions Of the paper by foreign ex-
perts were printed. i5
AS an example Of eight cylinder
production, the Cole eight" holds the
field. 1t was one Of the first two eight
cylinder cars built in this country and
its remarkable road work at once
stamped It as one OF the most power
full and efficient cars that had ever
been produced in America.
So eager were the motorists OF this
country to test It out and see Just
what it could do-how nearly it'could

substantiate the claims made for 1t
that it was subjected to tests that
would have been practically impos-
sible for any other car. 1t was driv-
en- to the top Of Lookout mountain,
at Denver, in high gear, without re-
ducing the water level in the radiator
one half an inch. 1t was forced to
meet many Of the fastest passenger
trains in the country in extended
brushes. i.a
1t was entered as the official pilot
car Of the Dixie highway inaugural
tour, and was one of the three cars
which, alone, were able to complete the
trip on their own power.
In every case, the Cole Eight"
came through with flying colors, and
received the praise of experts every
where.
I'VE attribute the success Of our
product Y said D. Scott Thompson, OF
the Thompson garage, local dealers
for the Cole Motor Car Company, ITO
our process Of standardized motor car
buildings system which is now pre-
dominant in the industry. We were
the first to employ it, and in the seven
years that the Cole company has de-
voted to the building Of quality cars,
lit has meant a steady growth and Inn
provement in u business, both from
the standpoint of sales and produc-
ton.
"And another thing-by standardiz-
ing our product we have been able to
place within fie means Of many 9 car

that, IL manufactured otherwise, would

that, IL manufactured otherwise, would
be the privilege Of only a few.
II was interested to note q few
days ago in a copy Of the Pictorial
Review an article by Or. Frank Crane
on "The -Four Real Medicines" in
which the motor a was mentioned
as one Of them. And among other
things, DR.. Crane stated:
"The Standardization Of parts is
bringing the price Of automobiles
within the reach Of an increasing
number of persons Of moderate means.
And the more the ~congested towns
empty their blood into the arteries of
the country lanes, the better will that
blood return to them, aerated, puri-
fed, enriched by Gods great santa
rium-outdoors.
"That's the secret in a nutshell. The
system Of Standardization not only
insures a perfect car. Itiplaces that
car where It belongs on the price scale
within the reach Of the average
man.
"Inamanufacturing the Cole Eight,
we have devised d. last the all around
car-the eventual car. It answers
every requirement. It's debility and
ease off, control make 1t q delight for
the woman motorist. Its silence, It's
reliability, Its utmost comfort, find
for 1t a new place among motor cars"

AMERICAN
Tourists Can Now Take Their
Cars into Canada with
out Paying.

American tourists travelling in Can
ada will be permitted to stay ten days
without giving bond for the re-expor-
tation Of their care. The limit for
merly was seven days. The new rul-
ing went into effect November 8.
The new regulation is a recogni-
ton Of the Importance of automobile
tourist travel from the United States
into Canada. The collector OF customs
at Windsor believes that the change
will tend to Offset the effect Of in
creased license fees which went into
effect at the beginning of 1915 and
which had a depressing influence on
American tourist travel. The new IL
cense fee, based on horse power, re-
suited in a decrease in the number of
licenses issued to incomers by the
customs officer at Windsor from 5000
in 1914 to 1900 for the current year.
II was estimated by the Canadian gov
eminent, after an investigation as to
the cost Of this decrease to the coun-
try, that the daily expense Of each
passenger in a a was ISL making
the approximate daily amount spent
by American tourists entering Can
ada by way of Windsor in 1914 $4,000.

prevent ducking. In the rear Of the
car by using a long semi-elllptic
spring a soft ride can be obtained.
AS a general rule automobile en-
gineers find that the three-quarter ell
liptic spring is not good on account
Of other collateral construction, lin
lting the length of the scroll or upper
part. This Is because DETECTION or
softness in spring action varies In
directly as the square of the length
must be cut down to conform to body
construction. The trouble as a result
of making three-quarter elliptic springs
so they conform to body design Is so
undesirable that many automobile en-
ginecrs look to this type OF spring
suspension as passing out. The three
quarter elliptic is being replaced by
the long semi-elliptic because 1t Is
more adaptable and cheaper.
The full elliptic has had Its day.
Spring manufacturers do not like to
talk 1t with their customers. 1t Is

design necessitating greater curva-
lures it has greater rebound. With
the public demanding cars being built
closer to the ground the full elliptic
spring is a handicap.
In the platform type Of construc-
ton which generally Is found on high
DriCed ears the same general riding
qualities as in the c%antllever spring is
obtained. While it Is a expensive
type of suspension and performs the
best OF functions, due to its being diff
Hcult to suspend the gasoline tank on
the rear and carry tire saddles, 1t is a
type of spring suspension that is only
adapted to certain motor vehicles.
In the cantilever spring suspension
the maximum softness for the length
of the spring is obtained. On the
King we used a forty-eight inch spring
The Sunday telegram. [volume] (Clarksburg, W. Va.) 1914-1927, 1916-01-30

and all cantllever spring users are
employing long springs. When the
cantilever spring is made long the ac-
ton becomes slower or sluggish and
less rebound is caused, making rid
ing ideal and saving car shocks. There
is more steel in the cantilever spring
than in the s%emi-elliptic that Of course
makes the cost higher to the manufac-
turer but the results obtained are
claimed to fully justify the extra ex-
pense.
There seems to be 10 doubt but
what the popular type Of rear spring
suspension among automobile manu-
facturers will be the cantilever and
the semi-elliptic.

spring and the semi-elliptic for the
real spring suspension on motor cars.
For pleasure cars the type of rear
springs used have been the semi-el-
liptic, the three-quarters elliptic, the
full elliptic. platform and cantilever
type.
In nearly all cases, except for the
very light and small cars it is gener-
ally conceded that the semi-elliptic
type of spring for the front springs
are the most satisfactory. The reason
for this being the fact that the front
end Of a motor car does not want
what spring engineers term q soft
ride. There must be something steady
there to hold the car On the road and
