COAL GAS PROPELS
 CARS IN ENGLAND

In England the gasoline situation is so acute that coal gas-the sort that is burned for illumination-is now being used for propelling many automobiles.
 Imagine a Ford car equipped with four uprights supporting a platform, or top, carrying a flexible gas holder twelve feet long; the diameter, when fully inflated, five feet, and filled with 200 feet of gas, costing 12 cents, suffi- ficient to run the car With five passen- gers seventeen miles over give-and take roads. Our Ford friend In its latest design somewhat resembles a miniature Yep"
 The busses, so characteristic of Eng fish transportation, are reflecting the influence of the 'Zeppelins," and more particularly the shortage of gasoline
 The Great Grimsby Street Tramways company has fitted some of it's fleet with flexible gas holders, holding 500 cubic feet and requiring twelve and one-half minutes to fill. These cars are of the Daimler make with 40-horse- power motors. No alteration to the carburetor was necessary, beyond fit ting butterfly valve in the air intake pipe in order to enable the driver to regulate the air supply as required and it was found that the best results are obtained with the valve nearly closed.
 Among the advantages in favor of gas which strongly appeal to the Grimsby officials, are the following CD the engine keeps cleaner than with petrol and the valves do not require grinding so frequently: CD choked jets, punctured floats and other carburetor troubles are eliminated; t5) the lubri- eating oil in the engine keeps in better condition and lasts longer.

Lines that carry more of beauty while yet retaining those hall marks which long have distinguished Pack ard cars are the first appeal of the new series Twin Six. In both open and en- closed carriages of the new model the long and low effect is strikingly ap- parent.
 The top of the higher. narrower ra- diator breaks crisply into the bevelled shoulders familiar in Packard radiator design. The free flowing fuselage line of the new car follows the plane of the narrowing bevels, merging gradually into the cap molding of the car A form fitting windshield intersects at smart angle.
 First cars of the new series will be shown soon by McArthur Brothers. Each of these first cars has been fin ished in derby red. Those who have seen a typical car of the new line speak of it as new creation.
 It is stated that the practical per- fa~tior If me Twln Siv rnotcr demon strated in the service of 1S,O00 owners has a bearing on the new lines; for with engine perfection secure, the tall ent of Packard designers and engineers could be concentrated on the qualities of style.
 'hauRes ir tho twin siv motor are re- finements of detail. The full power, smooth action and economical per- formance of the twin six have estab lished the 12-cylinder engine in the favor of the motoring public. In the new series, the channefing of the gas passages in the cylinder head has been improved, to insure an ever better dis tribution of fuel to the cylinders and thus to attain to even more marked economy, especially in handling low gravity gasoline. The new motor is notable for it's clean design.
 i The control has been simplified 4 clean steering column is achieved by removal of the control board and plac- ing of ignition, lighting and fuel mix ture controls in a convenient setting on the instrument board. The gear , shift lever is in the central position The wheelbase of the 3-35 is l36 inches and that of the 3-25 is 12S inches

M 'ALEER WILL
 BE CONNECTED
 WITH M ARTHUR

The many friends of Joe McAler are elated over the announcement that he will be connected with McArthur Brothers in the interest of thelr statc- wide wholesale business.
 One million dollars in wholesale busi- ness alone is the mark set by McAr- thur Brothers for .ne coming year, which is not any too nigh, acoo. ul... those familiar with taade conditions in Arizona.
 McAtrhur Brothers will have the marketing right in Arizona of the new Nash Six about which there has been so much speculation, inasmuch as it is said to be C. w. Nash's ideal car after 20 years of activity in "arriace "~" motor car building. In addition to this car McArthur Brothers sell Dodge Brothers and Packard lines and also the "Delco-Light" the electric plants for ranchers, etc, all of which MT, McAleer handle in a wholesale way.
 McArthur Brothers feel that the wholesale business in the state of Ari- zona can be developed to such a point that it will be a big factor in the blsi- ness of this organization, which from small beginning a few years ago, is now recognized all over the state.
 MT. McAleer is well known through his former connection with the Oliver Typewriter company and later with a local automobile concern and with his ability, backed with such line of mer- chandise as sold by McArthur Brothers, his success is assured.

 1t appears that the remaining 55O,000 shares of the escrow pool were never returned to the office of the commits sion, and Pogue, through his attorneys, petitioned the commission to enter an order demanding the return of the bal ance of the escrow pool to the office of the Arizona coiporation commission

MILLER METHOD IF VULCAN|Z|NG
 $ SUCCESSFUL

Take piece of ordinary cotton string. Tie one end to a chair and then pull it tight.
 Now, hold lighted match nine inches below it, being careful not to char the string or burn it, and await results.
 Soon the. string will break right where the heat (not the flame) was applied And here is the reason.
 Every minute particle of fibre mak- ing up the strands of a string contains a definite amount of native vegetable wax and oil. This is what enables it to stand a strain. Too much heat car bonizes this wax and oil, leaving the fibre dead, brittle, and lfeless
 What happens to the string occurs in the tire factory when too much heat is used to vulcanize a tire. The life-giving wax and oil are burned out resulting in a tire literally killed be- fore it's time.

POPULAR HUDSON
 SUPER-S|X PRICE
 REMAINS STEADY

Cal Messner, the local Hudson dealer has received word from the Hudson factory that the price of the Hudson super-six limousine and town car will be increased SAYS each ef- fective September l. The increase, the Hudson factory states, is based upon the increase of materials and labor.
 Tt is gratifying to know that the prices on the standard seven -passen- ger phaeton and the Hudson Speedster have not advanced" says Messner No doubt there will be an increase on these models in the near future, but it will not be as great as the increase on the Limousine and the town car.
 Few buyers of cars consider the re- sale value of their purchase. It is fact that Hudsons bring a higher sec ond-hard price than any other make of car.
 Think what this means at the pres ent price increase of other cars. All Hudsons bought now at old prices will command a higher resale value later when all Hudsons, too, have advanced in cost
 'Fifty-on makers have already in creased their prices-the cars that cost S200 to $500 less than Hudsons now sell for as much as the super-six."

Interiors of enclosed car riages are tailored in soft textures, patterns of which may be selected from a wide variety of weaves Lus- trous finish and perfect appointments give the final touch of elegance to the new series cars.
