THE TIME QUESTION.

Just thirty-three years ago the
United States congress FIRST officially
recognized the present system of
standard time by adopting 1t for the
District OF Columbia. The first to
propose that time should be govern
ed by meridians one hour apart 10
said to have been Charles F. Dowd.
principal Of young mans school at
Saratoga, N, Y, who sketched numer-
Gus schemes prior to 1882. The plan
taken up by the railroads the follow
ing year, however, was drawn by
William f. Allen, secretary of the
General Times convention Previous
ly there had been so many different
standards of time in the United
States that travellers watch had to
be reset about fifty times in trip
across the continent IL he desired
to be correct For years it had been
said the problem was past solution.
Today clocks all over the United
States are ticking OFF the seconds al
most in perfect unison, Some thirty
nations have followed the lead of the
United States by computing standard
time by meridians one hour apart. In
this country q score of time balls are
dropped precisely at noon in the prin-
cipal Atlantic, Pacific and Gulf ports
by electric signal from the United
States Naval Observatory at Wash
ington. where three standard sets are
regularly set by star sights and me-
ridian transit Instruments. The diff
ference in official clocks over 5000
miles apart is seldom more than two
tenths of second.

New Device Makes 1t
Safer to Learn DRIVING

several months of successful oper-
auon OF double steering wheel "a p
by Bishop, Mccormick & Bishop. of
brooklyn, have supplied the com
fortlng assurance that a day is com
ing when embryo motorists will
learn the art of driving with much
greater safety to themselves, to 9TH
lie.
The double steering wheel device
permits the instructor to retain CON
troll over the car at all times. even
though the pupil is doing the actual
driving and gear shifting This ar
rangement enables the pupil to trv
his hand almost immediately on
traffic-ridden streets, with the result
that he is far better euuipped 10
drive alone after one or two lessons
than the average raw motorist" is
after three or four. The instruction
car is not only equipped with two
steering wheels but with two sets of
brake and clutch pedals. "Automo-
bile Topics" says. Because of this
arrangement both instructor and
learner feel a confidence that can
not exist when there is a single con-
troll in unskilled hands. The nervous
strain that is eliminated can best be
appreciated by those who have been
through the experience"
The Brooklyn firm precedes this
instruction by series of lessons in
an anchored car" which is set on
platform in such way as to leave
the wheels free. In front of the car
is semaphore with which the in
structor flashes signals to the driver.
Sharp turn" steep hill" etc. di-
rect the pupil to manipulate his con
trolls accordingly. while a special
brake lever enables the instructor To
produce practically the same condi-
tions as would result on the road
Both the dual control and the an
chored car were originated by
Bishop, Mccormick & Bishop, and
patents are applied for on each.
Bishop, Mccormick & Bishop are the
Dodge Brothers dealers in Brook

Maxwell Breaks Record
in Long Canadian Run

The possibility of motor car be-
ing used as bearer of important
war dispatches has been demonstrat-
ed in Canada by Ray Mcnamara,
road engineer for the Maxwell Motor
Company, Inc. of Detroit, while he
was using a Maxwell touring car to
blaze a patch for Canadian motor
lists.
Mcnamara established a record
without parallel in the history of
Canadian motordom. He covered the
275 miles from Windsor to Toronto
in six hours and fifty minutes of
actual running time. The elapsed
time was seven hours and forty-four
minutes.
Heavy rains over seventy miles of
the course made the roads nearly
lmpassable. Travelling of any kind
was difficult
Putting things mildly this trip
was about the nearest thing to aero
planning that l have ever expert
enced, wired the road engineer to
the Maxwell Company.
AAe trip from Windsor to Toronto
was better by two hours than the
unofficial record.
So we'll had the Maxwell car per-
formed that Mcnamara and the two
passengers carried with him were
compelled to wait for the newspaper
men and Maxwell dealer to appear
on the ground. The trail blazer ar
rived in Toronto sixteen minutes
ahead of schedule time.
The record breaking time of the
Maxwell was accomplished, al
thought time was lost on two occa-
sions by tires being changed and
dirt getting III the gasoline line,
which was cleaned three times.
nf
leaving Windsor the night of July
26 the Maxwell made Ais miles Be
yond that point the motorists found
the roadway badly cut up and very
rough. After going sixty miles Nc
Namara changed the right tire which
had four-inch cut, caused by the
sharp rocks.
The roads were water soaked for
the next seventy miles. The. surface
had been washed off, leaving the
sharp bed rock exposed. A second
tire went to pieces at the end of $50
miles.
After leaving Hamilton it was
necessary to slow down to twenty
FIVE miles an hour speed on the high
way. Going over the rough roads
about forty-five miles an hour had
been made.
The slow time on the boulevard
was to remain within the speed linn
it, and to avoid the speed traps
hidden in bushes alongside the
roadway.
Before quitting Canada Mcnamara
will log route to Montreal and 9TH
er places.
Accompanying Mcnamara in the
Maxwell touring car were A. Drake,
of the Windsor Record; w. f. Addy-
man, traffic manager; w. b. Hast
ings, of the Canadian Motorist, rep
resented the Toronto newspapers
and checked the car in at Toronto.

S. Cook, president of the First Ma

Auto Tires Sold at
$500 Apiece in Sweden

American motorists should take
sweet satisfaction. now that their
country is involved in war;. in the
fact that the largest automobile tire
factories in the world are located
within the confines of the United
States, according to Count Richard
Hamilton. representing A. V. Holm,
of Stockholm, who looks after the
Peerless business in Sweden.
The Count was at the Peerless
factory in Cleveland the other day
and he said that about the most dis
tressing feature of the motor car
business in Sweden is the rubber tire
shortage.
"A friend of mine," said the Count,

sale just outside of Stockholm. lie
hurriedly bought them, at an eX-
orbitant price, and started home,
carrying the tires on his arm. lie
guarded them as a bank messenger
guards the money placed in ms
care. He had not proceeded on ms
way far, however, before several
persons were at his heels with offers
to buy the tires. The highest bid
was made when a man offered him
the equivalent of $500 in cash in
American money, for each of the
tires. Even at that price, the offer
was not accepted.
You Americans can thank your
stars that you are in no danger or
facing a rubber shortage. You have
the factories here, therefore you will
get the tires
Count Hamilton also mentioned
the fact that among the more prom

Sweden is Asia Nelson, the moving
picture favorite of that country. He
had recently completed trip of
los miles with her in eight hours.

Mr.. Coal Consumer:
Have you laid in your supply for

Or rather have you engaged your supply
from your dealer?
Coal dealers have hundreds of untitled orders on
their books and are patiently, should say i'm
patiently waiting for coal to fill them.
Since it is difficult for the dealer to secure an
adequate amount of coal during July and August
how can he take care of the demand in January and
February?
At the present time it is practically impossible to
get certain sizes and grades of coal.
Wholesale coal prices have been advancing each
month since April |. 1t will shortly be necessary to
change the retail prices because of the higher cost
You run fearful risk in delaying the filling of
your bins. Soon the coal dealer must refuse to ac-
cept orders until the old ones are filled
