IN lie Journey OF more than $3.50
miles the gasoline economy worked
cut 10 14.5 miles per gallon, IN spite
OF the fact that all the journey west
60 Chicago was made in heavy mud.
The oil consumption figures showed
that $50 miles were run to every gal
Ion Of fabrication used. At 500 miles
the tires showed little wear.
Perhaps the chief interest Of the
trip TO the average motorist was the
fact that Mrs. Williams. who accom-
panied her husband drove a great
deal Of the distance, though she had
never before handled q large car
'She now feels q greater security with
the MarmOn "a than with the small
car she used to drive and prefers It
because OF the ease OF operation and
the fact that the large breaking sur

Paige-Detroit Motor Com

Scdans Are Popular.

AS soon as automobile manuIac-

I fected its operation, they turned to
the further development OF the en-
: closed car; and the advance made In
this type OF vehicle Is now the out
standing feature OF the industry
says Harry NJ Jewett, president of
the Paige-Detroit Motor Car company
Gas a matter Of fact there is strong
evidence to lead US to believe that
the car OF the sedan type Will prob
ably be the ultimate choice Of the
The popularity Of the sedan and
the probability that il may dominate
the field is due to the com oinat1On OF
utility, comfort and luxury which the
better cars Of this type now offer.
With the development and perfection
Of the convertible type Of body, Of
fering q permanent top with glass
sides that can be in place or instantly
lowered out Of sight according to
temperature and weather, the sedan IS
really an all the year around car,
good for winter or summer driving.
Il offers the maximum OF comfort,

The present tendency in designing
enclosed cars Is 10 Increase comfort

enter here to the extent that it does
in the palmer touring car. Makers OF
enclosed cars are endeavOring 70 pro-

ALCOHOL MAY Be
A SUBSTITUTE
Denatured Alcohol for Fuel
Offers Many Possible
ties to Motorists.

The possibilities offered by the use
OF denatured alcohol as fuel for In
ternal combustion motors furnished
today one OF the most increasing in
dustrial problems and opens a line OF
Investigation IN which governments
and motor owners are equally inter-
ested. says a writer in q recent issue
Of American Motorist.
The most important result OF IN
vesigations carried on by the United
States geological survey IS contained
in evidence that properly designed in
ternai combustion motors using al
cohol or gasoline will consume about
the equal volume OF fuel per unit OF
power. The averages OF the mini
NUNS OF consumption vaIues give
like figure OF $40 OF a pint per hour
per brake horsepower for gasoline
as well as for alcohol. In this com
parison 10 IS OF decided interest that
the thermal value of alcohol is only
about One-half that OF gasoline OF
present day Standard fact which
explains the persistence OF the ex-
perimenters better than anything else.
The manufacture Of Industrial al
cohol Itself presents no difficulty.
The obsta cles in the way OF a more
general adoption OF alcOnOl as motor
fuel lie IN the difficulty to find a raw
material that can be procured sufffi-
GENTLY cheap TO render the making OF
denatured alcohol for fuel use profit
able At the present time most
Of the materials that have furnished
denatured alcohol heretofore, such as
grains, potatoes. melons. beets- etc
find a ready sale In the food market
at prices too high 10 permit their use
as q basis for alcohol
The question then, is 70 discover =
substitute so cheap as 10 make the
cheap enough to compete with the
fuels now existing.
The department OF agriculture has
taken a commendable interest fin the
question BY instructinE the public In
methods Of manufacturing alcohol out
Of corncohs, refuse from canning fac
torres. cactus. sawdust. etc
When the government regulations
are made so liberal that denatured
alcohol can be manufactured and sold
as are most other commodities a
great point VIII have been gained by
those in favor Of this DEVELOPMENT.
From the foregoing it should not be
assumed, however. that alcohol may
be used advantageous in the auto
mobile engine OF present design. AL
cohol requires a special carburetor for
its Importation. and the fuel must
be pre-heated. On the other hand. 10
IS also true that by utilizing alcohol
vapor under higher compressIons
than are customary for gasoline en-
gines, alcohol viii give the same or
greater efficiency than gasoline.
