FAMOUS CHALMERS HUT SPOT MAKES
 STARTING RECORD

A gas explosion in five seconds; a perfect start in seventeen seconds; and
 standing exposed over fifteen hours in temperature that averaged eight de- grees above zero; is the brief sum- mary of the latest cold weather start ing achievement of the remarkable Chalmers hot-spot.
 Choosing one of the coldest Decem-
 Der nights in recent years when over land trains were snowed-in for hours. ships were hurricaned to shelter and city traffic was demoralized; an or dnary five passenger Chalmers was left standing at the curbing of the De-
 troit Athletic club, one of the coldest corners in the factory city.
 At half past nine in the morning, after the uncovered hood and radiator had been licked all night by a sting
 ing wind, the starting test was begun
 under the supervision of J. F.. Schipper,
 technical representative of Motor Age,
 in the presence of the following auto
 mobile editors of New York newspa
 pers: Allan, Telegram; Doneker, Herald; King, Times; Severn, Globe; Burkett Telegraph; and Art Winter,
 well known motorist of Detroit. Before the observers, huddled and
 shivering in heavy winter coats, had
 realized the test was fairly under way,
 the engine had warmed up and witkin
 three and one-half minutes from the
 time of first depressing the starting lever. carburetion was perfect, that is,
 the car was accelerating as well as though if had been running all day
 Outside of the many features at
 tached to the wonderful start. and the equally sensational cold weather ac- celration an added item of great sig nificance to the automobile owner is
 the fact that the gasoline used in the test was even inferior to the average low grade gasoline of the present day. The gas used had an end point of ASA degrees-that is, on analysis by the Detroit testing laboratory showed it did not all evaporate until if had ob- tained a temperature of ASA degrees The end point adopted as standard by the city of Detroit is 450 degrees that is 34 degrees lower, so that the labora . tory test showed the gasoline used was | much poorer than average fuel and contained a heavy run of common keroSene.
 Though Schiper, chief observer, testi- | fled that tfe car was carbureting per | fectly at the end of three and one-hali minutes, the motometer gauge had not l begun to rise and the water in the | radiator had not warmed to an appre- | ciable degree. thus denying the engine ] customery warmth.
 Despite this apparent handicap, the | Chalmers hot-spot and ramshorn mani | fold were functioning properly and set | ting at defiance the rule of the ordin- | ary engine which demands thorough I warmth before perfect carburetion is i possible.
 Thus again the Chalmers has estab- ] iished itself as the greatest answer to present day low grade gasoline. For

COMMERCIAL CARS
 MAKE LONG TOURS

It is apparent from activities to be observed around Dodge Brothers Works in Detroit that neither dealers nor the general public are losing time in their drive on the commercial car department. Nearly every one of the long and constant processions of pas senger cars which leave the factory gates for cross country runs to the homes of dealers is headed by one or more of the trim appearing commer- cial cars on which delivery began only a few weeks ago. The fleets of cars in this respect are not unlike the great troop trains of trucks which are almost invariably preceded by a Dodge Brothers touring car or roadster when the motor system of transportation was introduced in the American army on the Mexican border
 Drivers usually are eager to be as signed to the commercial car, for, in the snow and blustery winds, it's warm curtain enclosure is a comfort not to be scorned. At any rate an emphatic remark to this effect was made by q party of Georgians a few days ago when their arrival from the warm sun ny south was heralded by the first snow storm of the winter. Owing to the difficulties of freight car trans pOrtation many dealers from all sec tions of the country are meeting the demand for cars by going to the fac tory and driving them through to their destinations. This method will be fol- lowed the entire winter ragerdless of Waether conditions.
 Commercial cars already have been driven to such far distant points as Lawrence, Kas., Atlanta, Ga, Hannibal, Mo, Paris, Tenn, Cincinnati. O., Wat erloo Ia. Davenport, la, Johnstown. Pa, an dTerre Haute, Ind. The first commercial cvar went to the Dashiell Motor Company, Chicago.
 Commenting on the immediate de- mand which greeted this car, Charles McArthur of McArthur Brothers, said:
 Almost since the day Dodge Broth CTS began building motor cars, business men have asked why a commercial car Was not added to the line, as the standard passenger car obviously pos sessed rugged. dependable character istics which could easily be made to serve a more general purpose. In fact, hundreds of owners who had eXperi- enced with the passenger car bought

+ YOU STORE
 YOUR JAR USE
 WISE ME ETHODS

Personally, 1 drive my car the year round, said Frank C. Millhoff, general sales manager of the Miller Rubber company of Akron, Ohio. There are many, however. who store their cars for the winter, and if I were one of them I should, in keeping with the na tional spirit of economy, take at least one vital precaution. That is, remov- ing each tire and allowing the car to stand on jacks instead of on the tires with irreparable injury resulting.
 "Next I would cleanse the outside of the castings with ordinary soap and water. The object in this is to re- move all traces of oil which, as is well known, operates detrimentally to the life of the tire. Then I would examine both the inside and the outside of each tire for bruises or injuries; make what repairs are needed and finally wrap the tire carefully in a clean cloth-or pre- ferably black paper-and lay it flat in a cool dar kroom
 "The inner tube would not be neg lected either, as it generally is. Inci- dentally. how many recognize that after all, the mileage, that is expected of tires can come only from team mate service of the inner tube? A leal1y faulty tube simply shortens the life of the tire by thousands of miles.
 Tn any event, I would not allow the tube to remain in the casing, no mat ter how good or how poor it was. would carefully clean off each one then lay it flat in a cool dark place as in the case of the tires.
 "A cool dark place is recommended because the chemists in the Miller factory informed me that the actiniC rays of light are injurious to rubber, and special emphasis should be put on the importance of storing the tires away from the light.
 If I did not want to remove the tires, the very least I should do, would be to jack up the car enough to take the weigh off the tires and leave just enough air in them to keep them tight and in shape.
 "The spirit of conservation calls fol simple precautions as these but from the 'chasis alone and built special com mercial bodies for use in their busi- ness.
 This car is Dodge Brothers response to that demand. While the body is of 1 a type that will answer most general purposes, it is a simple matter to meet the precise requirements of any merch- ant by building a body to order. We can obtain the hcassis alone for this purpose. Department stores, funera directors, grocers. meat merchants contractors, dairymen, plumbers, anC | in fact everyone who needs a com mercial car in his business will fine 1 it interesting, at least, to study the ] economy phase of the commercial cal eupCeStioO "

CONSERVATION
 OF RAILROADS
 IS NECESSARY

One Of thc marNels of the automo- bile industry is the manner in which t has solved Snotty problems and found lolutions Co so many seemingly un- surmountablo difficulties" says Mr. Keeler of the Ferguson -Keeler com pany local distributors of Oldsmobiles. 'It has always had to wrestle with new md unknown conditions and has all Nays found a way out.
 Being new industry. there ofttimes we're no prccedents for it to follow and it has been repeatedly obliged to de- Nlse ways and means to meet new con- ditions. Moreover, the demand for it's product thrust the industry at once Into quantity production and made necessary quick action and quick deci- sion. That is one of the reasons why everybody has taken such an interest m the automobile business-they like Co watch the fellows that do things.
 The transportation problem has all ways been full of veXatious situations and there seems to be no end to them. liut at no time have they been as serf- ous as at present and traffic managers of automobile concerns are straining every resource 10 move their product.
 The rarcst visitor to automobile plants these days is the automobile freight car that was built especially to handle automobiles. They have been diverted to move government supplies and the country's food products. Small box cars, flat cars and similar equip ment are being used, but there is not enough of them.
 Who would ever think of loading ahi1ae rtrffh fh.fy d. sticking up in the air? Yet that is just what the Oldsmobile traffic de- partment is doing. They take a flat car and build a heavy frame work around it about six feet high of 6x6 tlmbers. There are heavy cross mem bcrs at the top of this frame into which the front wheels of the automo- bile rest while the hind wheels rest on the floor and carry most of the weight.
 "The Oldsmobile is then loaded un- der it's own power, being driven into place, the car rests at an angle of about 33 degrees. It is then securely anchored and covered with heavy can vas. When the loading is completed, it looks something like four circus ele- plants standing with their forelegs on one another's backs.
 Obviously, a car must have power and stamina, and brakes must be abso- lutely dependable to load them in this manner. Labor is scarce and this operation takes four times as long to load a machine as ordinary loading, The material and lumber expense is considerable. But it enables four ma chimes to be shipped in the space form crly occupied by two Certainly no in- dustry is doing more to conserve rail- road equipment"

its notoriety has been derived, not only through it's ability to start in weather far below the freezing point and to pick up speed in cold weather with re- markable alacrity, but just as import ant is it's rare economy in develop ing exceptional pulling and climbing power from inferior gas, out of which can be extracted a considerable quan- tity of kerosene. This latter feature appeals strongly to the owner in the mildest climate who is nevertheless seriously elected by poor fuel.
 During the latest hot-spot test, which has attracted unusual interest, thermometers were suspended at the radiator and hourly readings were .ac- curately checked by two observers, the average of which showed eight degrees for the period of the experiment.

BRAKE ADJUSTMENT

When the car owner has installed on his vehicle winter body of any type, he should remember that he has added considerable weight to the ve- hicle. For this reason it is necessary that he carefully adjust the brakes to care for the added burden. Neglect Of this obvious precaution causes many minor rear end collisions in city driving and may contribute to serious accident.

COLON FOR AUTO TIRES

One of the most important materials that enters into the manufacture of automobile tires is cotton. The foun- dation or carcass" of the tire is built up by placing layer upon layer of cot ton. During the fiscal year of the Goodyear Tire and Rubber company just ended, 42,000,000 yards of cotton fabric were used in that company products. Tbis is nearly equal to 25,O0C miles, enough to belt the earth

HIS WIFE RECOMMENDS HIM.

The telegraph tells a pathetic story
under a Saint Louis date line. The
way things look now, Neb Wilkinson
of Palmer, Mo-, will have to don
suit of khaki and shoulder a rifle.
But Neb is still wondering why the
draft board of Washington County,
sitting at Potosi, rejected his plea
for exemption.
When he was drafted last week, he
passed the physical examination, be-
ing found sound in wind and limb,
Except that his heels showed fresh
stone bruises, acquired from hiking
over Ozark hills, he looked able to
carry rifle
But he evidently didn't want to
fight, and his eyes continually sought
the far blue hills, as he told of his
patch and his wife and family of
seven children dependent upon him
for support.
The chairman of the board told
him he must have letter from his
wife stating the condition at home.
The next day Neb hove in sight over
the hill road bearing a missive writ
ten on wrapping paper with lead
pencil. The chairman called his col
leagues about him. This is what, they
read:
"Dear United States Army: My
husband asst me to rite you reck-
mend that he supports his family. He
can't read, so don't tell him. Just take
him. He amt no good to. me.
"He amt done nuthin' but drink
lemmin essense an play the fiddle

| gotta feed seven kids of hissen.
Maybe you kin git him to carry a
gun.
"He's good on squirrels and eatin'.
Fake him and welcum. need his
grub and bed for his kids.
"Don't tell him this, but take him.

WE HEARD HIM, TOO

tor stood in the rear of the room
where the Kentucky Press Associa-

papers desiring to publish it. This
man grunted out a vicious protest
and in an undertone began to curse

hypocrites, etc. Several newspaper
men near him heard what he said and
some of them showed their resent
ment. The writer was one of these.
The Louisville man was stricken with
