THE WORTH OF A CAR is THE
WORTH OF THE MOTOR.

at is the motor that makes an auto
mobile from the standpoint of util-
ity," says o. NJ. Barr, local dealer in
Chevrolet passenger and commercial
cars.
Hundreds Of dollars may be spent
on body comfort and appearance, but
in the end, the enjoyment of q car is
limited to the worth of the motor.
"Just as the heart is the center of
life in a human being, so the motor is
the heart of the automobile. 1t makes
it go.
: "If man has a strong heart he Is
generally capable of doing big physi-
cal things. The ordinary tests of
everyday do not tax him at all, they
do not wear him out He has endur-
ance. He lives long and is fit and
vigorous in his old age.
"In Just the same manner the ca
pacity of car for hard service and
the length of that service depend on
the character of its motor.
ut is because so many people fail
to grasp this important point that
they make SO many costly experiments
before finding real motoring satisfac-
ton. Ii Is because of this that so
many makes of automobiles are per-
mitted to flourish on the sole strength
of attractive surface features before
public opinion snuffs them out.
"On the other hand the most sue
cessful cars of today are those whose
motors have stood up to the tests of
time. They are the kind in which
the motor has been the first consid-
GRAFTON. Then the rest of the car las
been built to fit the power of the
motor.
"ln such cars the motor is not over
taxed by unnecessary weight. Strength
and flexibility have taken the place
of bulk. And the result is greater rid
ing comfort. endurance, freedom from
repairs and far more power at far
less cost for fucl.' Ills II

WAR CASUALTIES IN
RUSSIA AND AUSTRIA

1t is said that, Notwithstanding the
fact that Russia ceased to be an ac-
tive belligerent about two years be-
fore the signing of the armistice, her
war casualties reached the huge to-
tai of 9,150,OOe of which number
approximately 100000 were fatal.
Altho Austria was in the very
center of the struggle, during the en-
tire war, and was, during much Of
the time, fighting on her eastern as
well as her southern and western
fronts, her total casualties up to the
end of May, 1918, are reported as
only about 4,00O,000-or less than
half Of those of Russia.

SALT MAKES EFFICIENT
CLEANSER FOR CHININEYS

Common salt will remove SCOT and
tar from the heating surface, flues,
smoke pipes and chimneys of domes-
tic heating plants, according to Fuel
Administrator Fred ]. Holmes. To
apply, spread two or three handfuls
CT salt on the hottest part of the fire
at time when the fuel bed is bright
or incandescent, then close the door
and open the drafts. The furnace
will become filled with dense, white
fumes which will penetrate thru the
pipes and clean the sooty surfaces.
An application of salt treatment
occasionally will keep the heating
surfaces in efficient condition. The
chemical action will not be detrimen
tai to the heating plant.

''YANKS" ONLY NICKNAME
TO STICK TO AMERICANS

Now that American soldiers are
known as Yanks everywhere in Eu-
rope, says the Red Cross Magazine.
1t seems strange that anybody ever
tried to fasten other names on them.
Yet there were many shortllved
movements to disprove in this case
the old axiom that lasting nick
name must be spontaneous, not arti-
ficial. The Red Cross Magazine has
received from Haywood Broun, long
a correspondent with our men at the
front, the following account of those
futile efforts.
When the first division of the A.
e. f. set sail for France, 1t forgot
to pack a name with the rest of the
equipment. The omission was not
discovered until the troop ships were
three days out. Major General VIII
liam L. Sibert posted the following
notice:
The English soldier is called
Tommy the French soldier is called
Poilu.' We would like suggestions
for fitting name for the American
soldier"
Suggestions came fast enough, but
they were scattering. Some of the
names, such as "Gringo," evidently
originated along the Mexican border.
Others seemed pure inventions-for
instance RED Avengers" Sammy"
was not mentioned and only on man
in the whole division took the trouble
to suggest "doughboy." The men
were using his word as a matter of
course and never thought of 1t as a
nickname.
Nothing on the list of suggestions
appealed to the general or his staff
and they decided to let the French
name the Americans The first COM
pany had Just swing into step up
one of the main streets OF the land
ing port when an excited Frenchman
cried, give les Teddies!" The French
public seized upon the name eagerly
and 1t was as "Teddies' that the
troops were hailed when they
marched in Paris on the Fourth of
July. But before the name was we'll
established General Pershing told
some of the newspaper men that he
didn't think 1t quite suited the need. |
He suggested that they think up
something on their own account, and
Henri Bazin Of the Philadelphia Pub
lie Ledger asked How about Sam
mics. from Uncle Sam?"
The general thought that might do,
and the combined press forces of
America undertook to put this name
