A new manifold, termed "The Rams
horn, has been constructed of simple pip
ing. 1t is on the exterior Of the engine. 1t
is a manifold Of easy curves so that there
are no sharp corners for the raw gas to lodge
against and be pushed into the cylinders.
The next Development was to give the
gas the proper amount of heat after it came
from the carburetor.
What is termed hot plate" is built in
at the top Of the throat of the carburetor SO
thatthe gas coming straight up from the car
buretor hits the hot plate the dimensions
Of which have. been worked out very scien-
utlcally, and then passes around the easy
curves of the smooth manifold in perfect
state of mixture and at the proper tempcra-
ture TO each Of the cylinders.
The case of this Chalmers engine has
been proved.
T.. On August 1 and 2, Toe Dawson
drove Chalmers. equipped with this same
engine 1898 miles in "a hours-faster and
farther than anyone ever before had travelled
on land, sea or air.,
If there's a flaw in pattexn, or part, a
solid dayof bitter, brutal speed will find it.
~ 2. There are over 1000 Chalmers
containing this engine now in use. They
check UP past all expectations.
Therefore, the Maxwell Motor Com
pany, which has leased The Chalmers Motor
Company, has put it's O. K. on this engine,
and accordingly on the Chalmers car.
90 per cent of any automobile is the
engine; and no car can be bit better than
its engine.
So you are safe in writing your check
for Chalmers.

1t Makes High Poa0er Out of LozO Craze Gas

Men who drive cars are face to face with
a condition that becomes more and more
serious each day.
That condition is the constantly dc
Ginning grade of gasoline.
Nearly every engineer has said goodby
forever to high-gradc gas.
For the moment, and possibly for all
time, multi-cylindcrs, counter balanced
crankshafts, and little tricks with valves
give way in engineers discussions to the
gas problem
Every alert engineer is bending his
utmost to make lone drop Of gas now do
the work of two.
Just as great situations produce great
men, SO out of this condition has come "a
great engine.
1t is a Chalmers
1t makes high power out Of low grade
Compared with other engines of the.
same size or therca bouts, it shows:
More boUe, More rapid accsle,-atte,
Greater ecoaomy Greater length efhte !.
Create, smo0thness
find an amasing ability 10 start Qutckiy o.,
a cold day, and 10 "t0arm TIP . qcithout delay
The Chalmers engine is simple one.
That is one reason why it is SO good.
In many engines of the moment the gas
passes on its way from the car uretor to Che"
cylinder through tunnel, which runs all
the way through the engine block.
Before the gas gets TO the cylinder it is
forced to turn many sharp angles and does
not become completely mixed with the air.
This results in raw gas running into not
only one but all the cylinders, particularly
when the car is cold, and especially when
running for the first five or ten miles.
In the case Of the Chalmers engine this

ONE FISH Is SOLD FOR 1929
Return of Sturgeon to Delaware River
Surprising as II Was Thought to
Have Been Exterminated.

Sturgeon fishing In the Delaware
river and bay has showed surprising
Improvement over past years in the
number of catches and size of the fish.
the Philadelphia Record states. Old
river men are mystitied by the return
OF the sturgeon, as it was thought these
big fish had been about exterminated.
Recently a number of exceptionally big
fish We're caught, some averaging well
above 200 pounds and a few 300 pound
sturgeon have also been caught.
The COW sturgeon are just now filled
with roe and some of the big ones yield
from 90 TO 100 pounds, selling at $2.75
pound at the wharves. One fisher
man who brought in a 300-pound stur-
geon last week was paid 1905 for the
roe and $24 for the fish, his, catch net
ting him 1920.
Harry A. Dalbow of Pennsgrove,
who has been buying caviar here for
many years, says that this is one of
the best sturgeon seasons in the bay
he has seen for long time. There
Is big demand for the roe this year.
MS importations of caviar from Russia,
where sturgeon are caught extensively,
have been cut off by the war. 4

PERSONAL LIBERTY.

What Is to become Of the funda.
mental doctrine of personal liberty;
that man may eat and drink what he
pleases? What is to become of the
theory that the development of stand
ard and sterling qualities in man can
only be accomplished by stress and
strain and temptation? These are Sc
rious questions that go to the root of
human progress.
The right Of the individual to eat
and drink what he pleases and wear
the clothes that he likes is restricted
by the fundamental principle that a
mans actions shall not threaten evil
to society at large. If one insists on
eating poisoned food and giving it to
his family, he threatens the existence
of the state. If one should choose to
walk the streets naked, he would Of
fend the rights Of other people, and
thus threaten society. Doctor Mary
Walker found that woman's clothes
hampered her activities as war
nurse. She had, however, to get an
act of congress to permit her to wear
a mans garb undisturbed. This may
seem silly thing. In so far as 1 can
see, a woman does not threaten So
ciety in any way by wearing mans
garb. She only threatens convention,
and yet the law regulates wearing ap-
parel in the interests Of decency, pro-
priety, and good morals. The drink
ing Of intoxicating beverages is
threat not only to the man who drinks,
but to society at large, and thus, with
out interfering with the fundamental
rights Of the individual or restricting
% proper personal liberty, the state
may say, 'Thou shalt not drink"

HOW ABOUT THE REvENuEa

"Upon one occasion when was en-
gagged In prohibition campaign In
Canada" says Prof, John A. Nichols
of Boston, "there came into the county
seat gOod-natured Irishman, the pos
SCISSOR of farm in an adjoining town.
One of the would-be liquor sellers met
him and at once proceeded to pour
forth his tale of woe. Pat said he,
i hear that you are going to vote to
continue this prohibition law. Now,
that means the ruin Of the county !;
grass will grow in the streets, and
business will be ruined. You have a
farm over in Melbourne, and you will
not be able to sell your butter, your
eggs, or your turkeys With woe-be-
gone countenance he described the
scene, and told OF the awful calamities
that would befall the county unless
licenses were granted to men to sell
liquor.
''Pat listened to the story with pc.
culiar expression upon his face, then,
with comical twist of his eye, with
one question, he punctured the bubble.
'Bedad,' said he, and would they take
away the mouth of you, them? The de-
mand for food would still continue
and Pat felt that his farm was safe.
"Grass will grow in the streets, say
the liquor advocates, and the schools
will be closed, unless whisky can be
sold upon the street corners. Well,
If it is grass or whisky, am in favor
of grass. A COW will eat grass, give
milk, and keep someone alive, but a
saloon cannot run and do business
without debasing someone and adding
to the sum of human misery and sor-
row."
