John Siminowicz was little more than
"a boy when he enlisted in Captain Day

burned with desire to get right into
the thick Of the fighting. He wanted
to go to France right away and every
day he went to the captain with the
same question When are we going to
France?' One day the young soldier dis
appeared from the camp on the island
and he was listed as d desertef.
Police officers went to Chicago and
found him waiting at. a recruiting sta
ton there seeking to get into q unit
which was to be sent at once to France.
He was brought beck to Kendsha sid
when it was discovered that it was his
zeal for service that led him to seek
service in another company, his record
was cleared. Letters from the young
man received only a few days ago show
ed that he had been doing his full share
in the great fight on the western front.
SininoWicz is the second member Of
Company M to be listed in the casualty
list. The other member Of the company
to fall was Corporal Arthur Junker,
who lost his life when the transport

Escape Injury While Motoring to
Salem on Sunday Morning.

His automobile was smashed to
smithereens as Ralph Englehardt and
his father, John Englehardt, were go

near the bridge on the Salem road an
other auto came along and both auto

same time. The Englehardt auto was
turned aside to avoid colliding with the
other auto and crashed into the pier of
the bridge. The automobile was so
badly damaged that it was necessary
to telephone into Kenosha for horse
and buggy to bring the occupants to the
city. The occupants were not injured.

.DIST|LLAT|ON TESTS
.F|NDPURE GASOLINE

The purity of gssolene is discovered
through a d'stillation test, which con
sists OF boiling the fluid until it
reaches a temperature OF 800 degrees
Fahrenheit. This is the vaporizing or
Classifying point for gasolene. A
chemically pure gasolene brought to
that temperature should leave no
residue in the distillation tube. Chem
lists have made these gasolene tests
for the past i've years with the fol
lowing results:
1870 per cent OF the gasolene
evaporated at 800 degrees Fahrenheit
1851 per cent OF the gasolene
evaporated at 800 degrees Fahrenheit.
1916-S5 per cent of the gasolene
evaporated at 800 degrees Fahrenheit
1e17-so per cent Of the gasolene
evaporated at 300 degrees Fahrenheit
191s-64 per cent of the gasolene
evaporated at 300 degrees Fahrenheit
Chemical analyses OF the residue Of
the above tests show that the 1914
and 1915 commercial gasolene con-
sisted of approximately 90 per cent
gasolene and 10 per cent kerosene.
The amount of kerosene has steadily
increased until at the present time
the commercial automobile fuel con-
tains 80 per cent kerosene.
