Starting System


Studebaker was one of the first to use an
electric starting and lighting system. Stude-
bakerWagner equipment was used from the
very first, the only change being made after
the first year when the two-unit system now
in use was adopted instead of the less eff
cient single-unit system of the first year.
Again Studebaker superiority is proved by
the comparative percentages:
Two-unit systems -. $40.
Single-unit systems ..,.,.,. .,a. .49.0%
Still more convincing is the use in Stude-
baker cars of the six-volt system Expe-
rience has shown that this type is most eff
cient and consequently it is used by Stude-
baker. There are other voltages used, but
the six-volt predominates.

Cylinders En- Bloc

Studebaker was the first manufacturer to
cast successfully six cylinder motors in one
block. Advanced ideas in engineering and
factory practice put Studebaker in the lead
Today 1851 of all manufacturers are follow
ing Studebaker's example.

Fours and Skies

The popular demand has centered on cars
of four and six cylinders, hence Studebaker
confines itself to these two types. The wis
dom of this policy is shown when the classih-
cation of all cars shows that Fours and Skies
together constitute 85.8g of the 43e models.
The division is as follows:

Springs i

Popular favor has been sought after BY
the advocates of cantilever springs. Stude-
baker always held to the superiority of the
three-quarter elliptic spring for rear suspen-
sion, and now, after three years vigorous
campaigning, the advantages of the latter
type, in spite of its higher cost, make it tho
ruling favorite. A singular point in eonnec-
ton with the use of the three-quarter elliptic
springs by Studebaker is the fact that this
type is used almost exclusively on all higher
priced cars.

Uncle Sam has been playing host
for over $50 years to one of the most
menacing pests the country has ever
known. 1t has cost him enormous
sums. Its damage has been so great
that the farmers in some localities
have given up the growing of the crop
it thrives on until II dies out But it
likes the treatment accorded here and
seems disposed to hang on. 1t cares
nothing that ii has out-lived its well

year, and season after season taking
the profits of our labor in the wheat
fields
What are you doing to stop the Hes
sian Fly? Your cooperation with your
neighbor means as much to you as to
him, and even II 1t didn't you owe a
duty to your community to help in
this eradication.
Remember these three things-sow
late, prepare the ground well, and add
available plant food to your soil Give
the young plants a late start to be
free from the fly, but also give them
a chance to obtain food by applying
at least 200 pounds of fertilizer con.

Other 'EadS Than Ours
COSTLY EDUCATION

Two years ago American business
men voluntarily went to Washington
to give the president and congress the
benefit of their knowledge and exper-
fence upon matters which were the
subject of proposed legislation. Pres
ident Wilson denounced them as an
''insidious lobby" and drove them from
the capital. In his message to con
gress a few days ago the president in
dicated his intention to call business
men into conference upon important
government problems. Two years. ago
he wanted to hang some of them
higher than Hannah" After putting
the American business man through
an experience little better than hang
ing, MI. Wilson realizes that after all,
practical business knowledge is OF
great value and that even a college
professor can learn from business
men. But what a pity it is that Mr..
Wilson took two years to find out his
error, What a pity that American in
dustry paid so dearly for Mr.. Wilson's
education, = Tulsa (Okla.) World.

Student Loyalty

Can loyalty to the state university
by the student body be questioned
We would answer in the affirmative
judging by the number present last
evening at the debate between Con
zaga University and the University OF
Idaho various members of the fac
ulty were conspicuous by their alb
~sence.)
What constitutes loyalty to ones
alma mater? Attendance at a dance.
a football game, or a track meet!
These, and other social functions
have their place, but the dignity and
standard of our institution cannot
be maintained by these alone.
While we do not think compulsory
attendance at debates and assemblies
of a similar nature feasible or ad-
viSable, yet we, by Jul presence,
might encourage our fellow students
who participate in these affairs, there
by giving our support to those who
are endeavoring to raise the stand
ard Of our university and to main
tain her prestige.

a lawyer and entered a plea of mot

The lawyer believed in the boys
innocence and spoke very eloquently
on the injustice Of the arrest, dwelling
particularly on what it would mean to
the boy in future life if he were sent
to prison. The court dismissed the

Immediately after, the boy asked
