The present day auto far. though
not necessarily an auto owner, Is be-
coming more and more familiar with
the efficiency required Of modern
automobile. He may not have suffl-
Gent technical understanding TO know
e car from ''tail-light to radiator, but
It Is certain he no longer regards an
automobile as Q machine Of mystery
and intricacies.
Through widespread advertising. the
annual auto shows and discussions
with auto owners ON gasoline con.
sumption, tire mileage and the abiL
ity OF this or that car to take GER
tain hill, or move slowly through tfaf.
fic on high gear, the layman hes
become educated to the point where
he recognizes the advantages OF ac-
CELEBRATION and flexibility In an auto
mobile and the desirahility OF Hight
weight as factor Of economy In
operation.
EnuInes Powerful and Light
ITO quote o wen known trade
phrase: There's b reason for ideal
performance" says an auto expert.
This reason lies. IN the state OF per
lection OF the new automobile motor
as developed during the past few
years. To appreciate the high efficf
ency Of the latest product as regards
fuel economy, II Is only necessary 70
compare the mileage now obtained
with gallon Of gasoline to that OBJ.
tanned with previous cars.
The modern auto engine Is not only
q lightweight engine. delivering much
more horsepower for its weight, but
as Il is necessarily o high speed motor
Il is geared lower TO the driving
mechanism Of the ear and delivers It's
power more smoothly and with greater
flexibility.
I'm this manner It is seen that d
car with this new engine may slow
down to walk without the necessity
of moving the gear shift. lever out
OF high, and this also accounts for
the rapid, smooth acceleraticn u the
getaway.
Less Fuel Is used -
The light weight, high speed motor
IN attaining these desirable features,
differs materially IN construction from
the older type. The Improved desigi
has also brought about & high eff
cheney IN fuel consumption. The rea-
son for this can be pointed out In q
nontechnical explanation. Formerly.
automobile motors were constructed
with the cylinders Of such proportion
that the difference IN inches Of the
bore and stroke was slight
The modern motor, which has
proved superiority, has much longer
stroke than bore and we viii here
assume Ii making q comparison that
the cubic contents Of both types are
similar and that both use the same
quantity of fuel.
'.In explaining the greater efficiency
obtained with the long stroke motor.
II must be understood that the charge
OF gas drawn into the cylinders Of q
gas engine on the inspiration stroke
must be compressed on the up stroke,
or compression stroke, before being
limited. to get power from the ex.
plosion IN fact the greater the charge
Is compressed, the greater wiz be the
force delivered on the piston head
when ignited. a charge compressed
to 100 pounds pressure, gives consider.

ey 3. S. CANINE

In the mind Of more than one man
who owns and drives his own motor
car, the Sits cut IN the sides Of the
metal hood are purely fad Of the
automobile designer, and excuse their
existence by making q rakish lookin5
bonnet Judging from externais, it
might seem that this Is the case.
since In q number Of automobiles, the
hood openings, or louyres, have either
lost caste completely, or have been
so reduced IN number as to lose any
hint of significance.
The louvre, nevertheless, is rather
an important factor in keeping the
motor temperature at point that
permits the car to operate at its
greaest efficiency The air that has
warmed in passing over the engine
finds It's exit to the outer atmosphere
through these openings, and In this
way opens a path for constant
stream OF fresh, cool air above the
working parts.
The absence Of louvres, or the pres.
ence OF only q united number, means
back pressure OF warm air on the
radiator fan. On the contrary, II fol-
lows that the greater the number Of
louyres, the greater will be the velocity
OF the unwarmed air flowing under
the bonnet.
IN many parts CT the country, where
temperature conditions do not require
the utmost Of cooling systems, atten-
ton to this detail of cooling system
construction Is q matter Of little con-
sequence. However. In hot dry re-
gions, motor cars must travel on their
cooling systems as well as on their
fuel tanks, and every Item that points
the way TO . better radiator system
deserves at least . passing notice
from the motorist.

For driving harness neat's-foot

REGRETS DECLINE OF DRAMA
Writer in Atlantic Monthly Is Out. spoken in Conforming Taste of
 the Modern PIaygoer.

The drama7 We never had much of it, properly speaking, so far as orig inal work is concerned, but we did have great actors, and during the lat ter half of the nineteenth century our people loved good plays. admirably acted. Most of us can remember the time when the great cities had many theaters offering the nobest work and crowded to the doors. Now, in the last ten years. all Is changed. Good art has wholly passed except when a mas ter from England or France comes among us in his declining years to give those farewell performances" that mark his withdrawal from active life and the ending of great era of dramatic art. The taste of the tired business man Is now the standard and the directing cause of whatever is pro- duced; and whenever his fancy rises a degree above the silly and the hr- morously salacious it scars only into the dubious realm of pathology plus pornography. No catastrophe so con- plete, no debacle so humilating has ever been recorded in any art in so brief space of time.-From the At lantic Monthly.

HOW TO PLEASE THE MEN.

If all the year were playing holidays.
 To sport would be as tedious as to work.
 But when they seldom come they wished for some.
 And nothing pleaseth but rare accidents
 There's a man in almost every fam fly. If not there ought to be. Once in while. he is the household drudge. as 1t were, the plod who keeps the wheel of support going But more generally he is found to he the king of the home, the one person whom ev- cry member of the family is most anx- lous to please. There is nothing which has so much weight with either sons or daughters as for the mother to re- mark: Your father will not be pleased if you do this or that" It's a thread bare joke about families trying To please the young son of the household Even the young men who call come in for their share. If they are not pleased in the way they are enter tained, the girls know full well that they will not be likely to come again very soon. All of the girls future pros poets depend upon pleasing the men, The young woman who has a sarcastic tongue is told to curb it if she would make herself pleasing to the opposite sex. Even in her dressing, whether she will admit it or not. she cares q great deal as to whether her male friends are pleased with her appear nr rot | te .l women should like to appear most fair in masculine eyes.
 Nine family men out of ten will tell you they have no "say so" about the house. The truth is, everything around and about 1t Is for their pleasure. If the head of the house is not pleased with cOrned beef. no matter how much the girls may want il, 1t is tabooed from that table. If he has a sweet tooth and has never been able to get over the liking for the maple cake which his mother used to make, It is the greatest pleasure wife knows to go down to the kitchen and eoneoct with her own hands the sweet he likes. It is the ambition of working girls to be at their best in the eyes of the foreman. their fellow workers and em- ployers.
 Men do not realize to what extent they are really lords of creation If all the male inhabitants in the world were united in the one desire to please the women, what a wonderful world this would be. The trouble Is. men are wont to please themselves and let 1t go at that. It must be said to their credit that they are generally rational in their wants, likes and dislikes. They have no other wish than to be pleased with women. The girl who pleases them best. they court and we'd All the world turns upon the axle of pleasing. What a delightful existence it is, then, after all. when the princi- pal aim and object In life Is in making it pleasant for someone-and that someone's aim is in making 1t pleasant for us.
