Back OF the increased cost Of
labor and materials, which has been
set forth as the prime reason for many
price advances in the last year, is a
! wide and deep sea of real truth in
the automobile industry. II for moth

1t is in this way that Don l.. Wat
son, assistant general manager of the
Haynes Automobile company, sums
up the motor car manufacturing as
pect of the coming year. In his sew
enteen years of continuous service for
the Haynes company, Mr. Watson has
learned the automobile manufacturing
game as it has developed from puny
industrial infant TO the commercial
prodigy OF modern times.
ITO be specific about material
prices says Mr.. Watson, ut is only
necessary to mention the open hearth
steel, used in automobile drop forg-
ings, which has gone up from $50 per
cent to 800 per cent. Next to open

FRANKLIN MAKER
PIONEER OF GAME
John Wilkinson Designed and
Manufactured His First
Car in 1898.
FRANKLIN SALES INCREASE

When we recall that the automobile
industry is only eighteen or twenty
years old and consider what was
called an automobile back in the
early days, it is easy to appreciate
the enormous growth Of the country's
greatest industry for its age Look
ing at the modern car, the problems
OF the pioneers seem insignificant.
But there was vast ignorance with
regard to the internal combustion en-
CINE, the characteristics of which diff
fcred so widely from those OF the
steam engine in common use. Many
OF the features of present-day de-
sign were undreamed Of then.
Among the pioneers OF the indus
try, probably no man had more adj
vanced ideas than John Wilkinson. In
1893 he built his first "car," crudely
and simply to be sure, but embody-
ing all OF the fundamental principles,
such as air-cooled engine, wood chas-
sis frame and full-elliptic springs,
that characterize the Franklin car to-
day. In addition the engine had four
cylinders, compressed air starter, sur
face carburetor and jump spark ig-
milton. The need OF transmission
was appreciated, but the knowledge
regarding it was so vague that it
was dispensed with, the machine be-
ing built with only one speed for.
ward and no reverse. Since this "car"
had the first four-cylinder engine built
in America, lack of experience in both
ignition and carburetion had to be
contended with. The correct appli-
cation Of high-tcnsion ignition was
developed only after painful pro-
cess OF experimentation. Short ex-
hibition runs we're then made quite
successfully.
Profting by experience with this
first model, second was built in
the spring OF 1900, which made Eek
tended" country runs as high as
eighty miles on one trip. In the
meantime compressed air starting was
abandoned as too heavy and cumber-
some and the surface carburetor gave
way to the hoat-fecd type Of today.
A two-speed transmission was then
designed and third car built in the
fall Of 1901. This was the model
after which the eleven cars sold in
1902 were built and had a valye-in-
the-head four-cylinder, air-eooled en-
CINE, wood stills, full elliptic springs,
fioat-feed carburetor. throttle con-
troll, single high-tension coil ignition,
planetary transmission and chain
drive.
First -Four and Six.
1t is interesting to note that the
Franklin car claims the distinction of
being the first in America to have
a four-cylinder engine (io02), the
first in America to have a six-cylin-
der engine (l905), the first to use the
valve in-the head construction and the
first to adopt the hoat-feed carbure-
tor. throttle control, automatic lubri-
cation and drive through the springs.
The present Franklin embodies all Of
these features.
Light weight construction was
mentioned as Franklin principle in
the first catalog issued in 1902; the
Omaha daily bee. (Omaha [Neb.]) 187?-1922, 1917-02-25

accounts for the fact that it now seems
understood for its passenger.
The miniature is an exact duplicate
of the larger car 1t is equipped with
electric lights and an electric horn.
The builder put noise-making device
under the hood and it is operated off
the drive shaft of the larger car. Mug
gins gets all the fun of pleasurable
motoring that goes with the looks of
a motor car.
The lights are connected with those
on the larger car and operate stimuli
taneously. 1t is next to impossible
to induce the dog to leave his seat
when the car is in motion, and it is a
dangerous task for stranger to at
tempt liberties when Mrs. Caster is
not about and Muggins is monarch of
all he SURVEYS,

Los Angeles Canine
Has Baby Auto that
Is All His Very Own

Perhaps the only dog on record that
owns a motor car exclusively its own
is Muggins, the canine friend OF Mrs.
c. c. Caster OF Los Angeles. 1t is a
miniature car attached to the battery
box on the running board of his own
er's Hupmobile.r 1t was built for Mug
gins when he was several months
younger and the man who built it did
not allow for the dogs growth, which

heaviest car in the Franklin, line for
1917 weighs 2,620 pounds, the light
est weighing 2,l6O pounds.
Franklin production grew gradually
from eleven cars in 1902 up to a
few more than 1000 in 1912. Then
in 1918 the company decided to build
one chassis only, to which all body
types were adapted Such a step
made possible more efficient produc-
ton and increased volume, with a
material saving in the manufacturing
cost and selling price Of. the car. The
success of this move is best shown
by the increase in sales from 200 in
1912 to about 1000 in 1915 and
projected production of 10000 cars
for the twelve months from July,
1916, to July, 1917

INTERPRETATION OF MUSIC
OF HAWAIIAN ISLANDS
MAKES HIM SORE

Atlanta, Ga, March .5.-.All the Ha-
.waiian music YOU hear in the vaude-
vile shows and the glec clubs and the
parlor concerts bears approximately
the same relation to the real island
music as negro melody by a Yankee
black-face comedian, who has never
seen negro outside Of Boston. bears
to the inimitable songs and soft-strig-
ed instruments of the darkies OF the
South.
At least, that's the way its doped
out by H. F. Hendricks, a former At
lagtian who has spent twenty years
and made a fortune in the Hawaiian
Islands, and who is back here on
visit
If there's one thing in the line Of
theatrical entertainment that Mr..
Hendricks avoids, it's the Hawaiian
music. Not because it makes him
home-sicll for the islands, where he
expects to spend the balance OF his
life, but because it makes him sore.
