COAL GAS TAKES

In England the EasOlene situation

are of the Daimler make. with 40
horsepower motors. No alteration to
the carbureter was necessary, beyond
fitting a butterfly valve in the air

driver to regulate the air supply as
required. and it was found that the
best results are obtained with the
valve nearly half closed.

Mr.. White, OF the above company,
according to the London Commercial
Motor, states that 1.-THE Daimler en-
CINE runs very smoothly on gas, ac-
celebrating with the same ease as

and its pulling powers with a full

are the same as when on petrol"
Experience with this vehicle has
shown a reduction in fuel cost per
mile run from cents to : cents,
with petrol at 81 cents per gallon and
gas at So cents ner I .OO0 cubic feet.
Among the advantages in favor OF

Grimsby officials, are the following:

STANLEY STEAMER
TOBE DISTRIBUTED
BY {. c. HELGESEN

The coming to Washington Of the
Stanley Steamer marks a significant
hour for local motordom. The new
distributor. E. c.. Helgesen, son OF the
late Congressman from North Da-
kota, has opened his salesrOoms at
the former home OF the Selby Com
pany, 1905 Fourteenth street.
The firm will be known as the
Washington Stanley Sales Company.
The Stanley. though not rerresented
here for years, is not without cham
plons and enthusiasts. But those who
recall the old steamer which bore this
name have q establishments waiting
them when they see the 1917 model.

Kerosene As Fuel.

The Barry Motor Company,
N at Fourteenth Street, has
been appointed distributor for
the Hupmobile in the District
of Columbia and vicinity.

The new distributor has inauguated a
broad scheme of service, on scale which
Washington has never before known. The
new plan includes bringing to Hupmobile
owners a service for them only. This plan
could only be made effective and successful
by bringing here man who has supervised
this important work in the factory of the
Hupmobile.
Every effort to make more gratifying the
relations between the new distributor and
Hupmobile owners will be furthered by the
Hupp Motor Car Corporation.
