For the last several days one of the
professors of the State University has
been occupying the columns of the
Journal with lengthy effusions in op
position to the Pittman Land Bill.
The professor attacks the bill from
a statistical standpoint and wakes
rather lengthy in his figures.
But perhaps the most pertinent fea

the university has plenty of money
and needs no more. II this be true

MOTOR PROBLEMS

Motoring department-The lights in
my car are not as strong and bright as
formerly. l can find no cause for this
except that in running the motor,
thereby charging the batteries, all the
cells in the batteries bubble and gas
freely, except one which does not gas
at all and which indicates to me that
this cell needs replenishing. Do you
think this cell is the cause of the lights
being dim and if so, how can l re-
store it to a healthy condition? An
answer through the motoring page win
oblige. T. H. M.
Although you do not state so, we
assume that you keep the defective cell
filled with water. Otherwise your
trouble would be due to a leaky CELL 1t
is possible that the plates are short
circuited. This would reduce the cur
rent and make the lights burn dimly
Would be advisable to have the battery
inspected and repaired without delay.
Motoring observation-disclosures answer
the following in your motorist column:
l have a 1916 Ford car, also an auto
mobile equipped with generator and
battery, and desire to equip my Ford
with q storage battery for lighting.
Could ! charge the battery for the Ford
from the other car? Also, could these
batteries be changed from one car to
the other? l will appreciate your
advice and information. w. ]. S.
The battery on the Ford car could be
charged by the other system, but it
would not be economical to run the en-
CINE just to charge the other battery
You would best proceed as follows: Get
a battery of the same capacity as the
one with your starting and lighting
system-a duplicate of it II possible,
as it will then fit into the same space
on the car. Use one of these batteries
on the charging system until it Is
charged and then exchange with the
one on the Ford car This will be found
to work out very successfully in prac-
tice.

a Ford car is lacked up behind and
thrown in low gear the left rea- wheel
only will spin, and likewise in reverse
the right wheel will remain stationary,
while the left will spin, but in high

HORSE IS DRIVEN
FROM THE Scene
Maxwell Company Has De-
mand for Light CONNER
cial Chassis.

This Is a golden age for horses.
There's nothing for them to do. Not
only that their usefulness in the social
sphere become a thing of the past, but
now they are being crowded from in
dustrial activity. Look around the city
streets and you can't fail to observe
the scarcity of horses in delivery work.
The commercial motor vehicle is rapid
ly coming into its own and with it's
ascendancy, horses are becoming a
negative quantity in the great Whirl
of city traffic.
Business firms and corporations hav-
ing a great amount of light delivery
work are coming more and more to
the realization that tho light delivery
car furnishes the solution to their
transportation problems. Not only
private corporations. but great NUM-
cipal, state and federal departments,
are introducing into their work and it
has been found universally serviceable,
economical and dependable.
MAxWELLS AND UNCLE SAM.
An ever-increasing demand for the
Maxwell chassis for light delivery pur-
poses is reported by the Maxwell Mo-
tor Company, Inc, of Detroit. This de-
mand has increased correspondingly
with the great increase in the demand
for the standard Maxwell passenger
car models.
Recently four commercial vehicles,
the bodies all mounted on Maxwell
chassis. were installed in the postoffice
department in Mobile, Ala. These cars
are used particularly for the handling
of the United States mails to and from
trains and steamers and also in the
handling of the parcel post delivery
service
Although these cars have been in
the government service but a short
time, it has been amply demonstrated
how they expedite the service. The
postal authorities at Mobile are well
pleased with the increased service that
followed the installation of the Max
we'll fleet.
Low PRICE ATTRACTS.
The bodies are artistic and service
able. Every piece is mortised and the
wire screens are adjusted so they fit
perfectly. Built on the Maxwell chas-
sis, each car weighs about 1900 pounds.
The low price of the Maxwell chassis
is made possible by the immense pro-
duction at the Maxwell factories. The
chassis comes all wired and ready for
a body to suit all light delivery re-
quirements
