The Human Factors
In Good Service

There are three parties to every tele-
phone conversation party calling,
the trained operator. and the party who
answers. All three share alike the respon-
sibility for quick and accurate telephone
service.
The calling party should give the cor
rect number in distinct voice. speak
ing directly into the transn1itter, and
wait at the telephone until the party an
swers or the operator reports. The called
party should answer promptly.
Patience on the part of the telephone
user and the telephone operator is also es-
sential to good service

NEW EMPIRE TOURING
CAR HAS T-HEAD MOTOR

A new Empire four-cylinder. five-pas-
senger touring car. designated model So
is announced this week by the Woodruff
Motor Company. of Washington.
The model 30 is the successor Of the
model 45 four-cyllnder touring car which
has been built by the Empire Company,
for several years and is now discon-
tinued. Many changes, rehnements and
improvements are made in the new
model apparent both In the chassis and
body.
The radiator is higher and narrower
and with increased cooling surface; the
hood lines are higher and wider and the
front cowl Is raised. giving the car a
much smarter appearance. The wind
shield Is tilted. The instrument board
is Of solid walnut. There are hand pads
on all four doors. The center cowl Is
more refined and is much handsomer
than II was in the model 45. There is
a double texture "Neverbreak" cloth one
man top instead of the single texture
top used on the model Is. There is also
"a new and later type of headlamp.
In the chassis the Borg & Beck disc
clutch replaces the cone clutch formally
used and the rear axle is of different
make; being semi-flOating with a heavy
yoke on the third member. The new
model Is the only motor car on the
American market which has a motor Of
T-head design selling under $4,000. the
Teetor- Hartley motor still being used.

TO PROTECT CARS

seauentiy. have no one to care for their
cars while they visit the theater. I'm
questionably this condition deprives
many automobIiists. especially those liv-
ing in the suburbs, of considerable thea
ter-golng pleasure. and also robs your
box office OF many dollars.
Whether you agree with this latter
theory or not. the motor car today Is
enacting a chief role in our social and
economic activities, is Indispensable to
millions and its demands are being met
with altered. and more and more fav-
orable conditions by everything and
everybody upon the highway OF progress.
You have long been noted for your un-
falling courtesy to your patrons, and I
am quite sure that should you devise a
plan whereby you offer car protection to
your patrons-and let the fact be known
increased patrons will result, and you
will have sustained your reputation for
keeping abreast of the times"
Practically all the theater managers
have written that they will be glad to
attend the meeting and to discuss vari-
Gus means of protecting cars.

Women Conductors.

Manchester tramway passengers will
doubtless have noticed at least one agree
able result Of the employment OF women
conductors. There Is a great improve
ment in the manners OF the trolley boys.
Formerly their replies to all questions
addressed 10 them were exceedingly curt,
and they were often reproved by angry
passengers for their rudeness. Then they
were in such a hurry to restart the cars
that sometimes they would scarcely give
passengers time 70 get their feet firmly
planted on the lower step before giving
the starting signal. Now all Is changed.
The boys reply courteously TO the in
Quiries OF passengers. their requests 20
"strap-hangers" 10 move up 20 the top
aIe usually accompanied by the word
please" and uttered in a much more
gentle voice than Of old. and their pa
tience with passengers who are alighting
from or boarding the cars is quite touch
Ing. II must be the presence OF the
women conductors which has wrought
this pleasant change.-Manchester Guard

FINEST EQUIPMENT ON
1917 MARION-HANDLEY
~ w. y. HUAfMER.

Distributor of Marion -HandleyS.
The most important part of the cleo
trical system Of the Marion Handley Is
the new Westinghouse generator, which
automatically regulates the current II
supplies according to the demand on
the system The total weight OF the
generator Is about sixteen pounds. It
operates at pump shaft speed, no fric-
ton speed regulation device Is used.
An automatic cutout and switch closes
the circuit to the 6-volt so ampere
battery. when the generator speed is
such that IL can charge the battery
This switch automatically opens the
circuit when the speed drops TO such
a point that the battery tends to dis
charge.
The Westinghouse ignition unit is
one that has reached the highest state
of perfection. The unit Is self-contaIn-
ed in hat 1t has combined in one unit
the interrupter. the spark coil and con-
denseT and distributor. Three wires
lead from battery to igniter unit, so
that the poles are automatically
changed each time the ignition switch
is turned. Current for the ignition is
supplied from the battery.
The lighting system consists of the
Westinghouse generator and lighting
switch in connection with a 6-voIt so
ampere storage battery. A single pair
Of headlights are used with double
bulbs OF 2O-candle power for road driv-
ing. and small bulbs OF 4-candle power
for dimming.
The starting system consists OF a
motor and a simple foot-operated
switch in connection with an auto
matte pinion shift device. The start
ing motor is entirely inclosed and is
ample in size to crank the engine un-
der the most adverse weather condi-
tions, to overcome backiring Of the
engine. The motor is applied by gear
ing the teeth to the fly wheel

NATIONAL TWELVE HAS
EVEN FLOW OF POWER

National engineers. with their twelve
cylinder motor. have smoothed out the
power transmissions.
In a six-cylinder motor the crankshaft
received three Fropulsions every time It
turned over. Seemingly this was suf-
ncient for an even fow Of power. This
would be true but for one reason The
cylinders OF the six motor must be large
in order to generate a sufficient volume
Of power. When one Of these cylinders
gives the crankshaft a shove II Is an
ungentle, unmannerly shove.
With the twelve. the crankshaft re-
celves six propulsions with every rsVolu-
ton Thus the power stream Is un-
broken The individual cylinders are
srnaller-the explosions less brutal.
The National Twelve, most accessible
OF all v-type engines. carries the valves
outside the v. A single carbureter impair
tally supplies both sets OF cylinders, and.
nestled away snugly In the center OF the
v. high. dry and warm. It handles low
