NASH "SIX" FIRST
CAR TO BE USED IN
CANTON, CHINA

Here is an interesting story and 1t
comes from the Pacific Motor com
pany of Hong Kong, China:
A Nash six. has just been pur-
chased from this firm by q high Of
fetal of the Chinese government for
use in Canton. China. II will be the
first motor car used in this famous
Old Chinese city of Il million and a
quarter people.
In the entire Canton district there is
only one road which would serve for
motoring, and it is but three miles in
length All hauling and delivering is
done by coolies who are glad to work
for from five to ten cents day
Thousands of these coolies swarm
everywhere; carrying loads of every
conceivable kind. There are no streets
as We know them in Canton, but in
stead narrow alleys between the
buildings twisting in and out in an
endless maize.
Outside the walls of the city itself
there are huge burying grounds, which
are carefully kept in order by the ma
tives The native Chinese worships
his ancestors, and it would be looked
upon as sacriligious to disturb any of
these thousands of graves which en-

pose of road building. Then, too, the
wealthy, or welI-to-du class in Can
ton, is very small, and they can well
afford to hire their hauling and de-
liyering done by the capable and
easily satisfied coolie.
This condition, however, does not
exist in the treaty ports of Hong
Kong, Shanghai. Tienstin and Han
kOW, where the large EurOuean and
American colonies have built up
modern sections for themselves, and
have created a demand for every
modern convenience.
The Far East is rapidly developing
into a good market not only for pas
senger cars, but for trucks and COM
mercial cars as well. Two Nash Quads
have recently been purchased by the
Chinese government for service at the
Kiangnan arsenal. These orders were
placed after a visit to the plant at
Kenosha, Wis., by the Chinese gov

recall the days when people lined up,
money in hand, to buy their favored
car" says s. NJ. How, general sales
manager of The Haynes Automobile
company, Kokomo. Ind. tThis proved
that the automobile was wanted and
needed, A great percentage of poo
pie, it is true. bought cars at first
mostly for social and pleasure pur-
poses, in just the same manner as they
bought the telephone, electric light
system and the many other modern
conVenienceS for their homes and
their own personal requirements. But
the desire was a natural one, and the
evident means of proving the agrees
siveness of the American buying pub
lie. 1t also paved the way in showing
them the unlimited uses to which they
could put their cars to increase their
wealth, happiness and health
with such q natural demand for
automobiles inherently examplified,
there should he no question about the
future of the automobile industry,
The outlook points to big business
ahead. Today the industry ranks
near the top of Americas list of pros
porous and important manufacturing
institutions. Its business principles
are sound and as its mission is one to
fill the needs, there is cvcry reason
to believe that the automobile mdds-

KEEP THE OUTSIDE OF
MACHINE CLEAN AS
INTERIOR MECHANISM

Experienced motorists are as care
full to keep the exterior of their en-
gines clean as they are to remove car
bon from the inside of the cylinders.
An engine cools better when 1t Is
clean. Dirt and mud act as insulators,
preventing the metal from throwing
off its surplus heat into the air.
Cleanliness applies also to other
parts, such as rear axle, brake mech
anism, etc. Mud is apt to collect on
brake rod clevises and such parts and
when it dries soaks uo the oil intend
ed to lubricate the joints. The result
is that the parts become dry and
wear. All these chassis parts should
be cleaned at regular intervals and
fresh oil applied. Dust and dirt when
it mixes with the oil makes a sort Of
grinding paste and wears down the
bearings. Many owners make leather
boots to fit over steering joints, brake
connections. etc, and these not only
serve to keep the lubricant in. but
mud, dust and water are denied
entry.

MOTOR TRUCKS SAVE
VICTIMS OF TURKS
FROM STARVATION

Motor trucks were a great aid to
the American committee for relief in
supplies to the destitute and starving
people Of Asia Minor, victims of Tur-
kish lust and brutality. This com
mittee, with characteristic American
spirit, has fed thousands of these I'M
fortunate refugees and saved them
from starvation There was only one
source of help-America-a Amer
lea, as has always been her wont. Of
fered aims and continues to do so as
the need for help is still urgent.
Without these powerful trucks for
transport work. death and suffering
would have been greater, Before the
advent of the trucks practically all of
the transporting was done on mems
backs and by donkeys.

SPLENDID TRIBUTE
PAID TO FORD CAR
AFTER BIG BATTLE

One of the strongest tributes which
has ever been paid to the strength,
fleXibility and endurance Of the Ford
car comes from the pen of the COM
mander of the First Anglo-Siberian
Field Hospital during the awful flight
of the defeated Serbian army. When
she led her entire unit safely through
icy torrents and over capped
mountains terrible trek of 500
miles to the outskirts of Belgrade.
There was only one thing to be
DONE" she says, "if the whole hos
pital was not to be taken by the en-
envy. The staff, who usually rode in
the motors, must walk; the worst
wounded must go in the motors. those

The road was abominable, with
mud and holes and narrow and brok-
en- bridges. We were continually. all

cars-performed acrobatic feats in

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
6,140 MOTOR CARS
NOW IN SWITZERLAND

At the end of 1917 there was 6,14O
motor vehicles in Switzerland. of
which number 4,934 were touring cars
and 1,206 motor lorries. OF the total
1855 motor cars were of Swiss origin
and 3,575 were imported vehicles.
According to these statistics, for
which the Automobile club of Switzer-
land is responsible, there were fifteen
motorcar firms in the Helvetic confed-
Grafton. The number of Foreign makes
represented in that country is forty
three.
The foreign firm having the largest
number of cars in service in Switzer-
land is the Fiat, with 2S3 touring cars
and fifteen motor lorries. Although it
is an italian firm which heads the list
with a big margin, France is first
in the list of nations, with Germany
second, America third, Ibly fourth
and Belgium fifth. British built cars
are not listed separately.

COVERED EVERYTHING
EXCEPT SPEEDING

The legal regulations covering the
operation of automobiles in Switzer-
land, which were adopted in 1900,
read as follows: No automobile
should be put in service without hav-
ing first been examined by techni-
cal comrnittee, which has to pass on
the safety of the vehicle. The OPP
orator must also be in possession of
a certificate of competence. Each
vehicle must be furnished with two
lamps, one of which has a white
(colorless) glass and the other one a
green glass. Finally, each vehicle
must carry plate displaying clearly
and readable at distance, the name
and address of the proprietor"
It is somewhat surprising that the
regulations did not touch upon the
question of speed.

Light and Moderately Priced Nth Costly Car Qualities
Describe the Essex

Those who have seen and ridden in the
Essex understand why everyone is so enthu-
sastic over it.
There has been veritable burst of approval
for the Essex from motorists who have here
tofore confined their interest to one or the
other of the two general types of cars.
The user of the light cheap car sees in the
Essex a new standard of comfort and endur-
ance He recognizes that at moderate price
he at last can get economical motor car service
that is enduring He sees much in the Essex
to admire and be proud of instead of apollo
getic, for it has the beauty and refinement that
distinguishes many large and costly cars.

Have You Not Noticed It?

We have attempted no description of the
Essex. We have said it would speak for itself
and SO it has. People are talking about it. In
their descriptions they make comparisons.
They say it is light in weight like such and
such car, referring to cars of similar weight
and price.
But when they speak of Essex performance
or OF its appearance, comparisons are made to
larger and costlier cars. They say it is speedier
than this one, and that it rides as easy as
another, and that it pulls the hills like,
and stands up like -, always mentioning
cars that are distinguished in such particulars
and which cost great deal more to buy and
to operate.

THE UNION DRY GOODS COMPANY
FOSSIL FISH SCALES.
Have Distinctive Characteristics BY
Which They May Be Recognized.

A fossil NAV be of interest TO many
classes of people and for many different
reasons. To the casual observer il may
be only curio without special mean
ing, but the biologist may recognize it as
representing the ancestor of some living
form or one member of race that has
left no descendants, and the geologist
may find it useful because il occurs only
or chiefly in a particular bed of rock or
because ii helps to fix the date Of some
geologic event.
A complete animal or Slant is seldom
preserved as a fossil. The paleontolo-
gist NAV have TO interpret a single leaf,
tooth, or an isolated bone and to de-
scribe hitherto unreeognized species
of tree or a mammal OF reptile from a
small part of the organism.
A Ash scale seems an insignificant
thing, yet even fish scale, when atten-
lively studied, is found to have distinc-
tive characteristics by which families
and genera or perhaps species may be
recognized. Fish scales not only differ
in outline. but some of them have min
ute features of sculpture which are as
distinctive as the human finger prints
| It's pattern often suffests. Fish scales
are common fossils in many places where
complete fishes are not found, especially
in rocks of the Mesozoic and the follow
ing era--the middle and later ages of
geologic time In certain Cretaceous for
nations fish scales are so abundant that
specimen OF the rock seldom fails TO
show some Of them though the forma-
ton may contain few or no other fos-
sils except isolated fish bones. Collec-
tions of FISH scales from certain west
ern Cretaceous formations. assembled by
the United States geoloieal survey, de-
partment OF the interior, have been de-
scribed by r. ID. A. Cockerell, of the
University of Colorado in paper en-
titled "Some American Cretaceous fish
scales, with notes on the classification
and distribution of Cretaceou fishes"
published by the geological survey as
professional paper l20l, Five new gen
era and 90 new species arc described and
are illustrated by enlarged Photographic
figures.
This report is strictly technical, yet
ii will be of interest not only to those
who are studying the geologic history of
fishes, but to biologists who are studying
the western country in search for new
oil fields--not that the fishes were nee
essarily the source of the oil, but that
their scales afford a means of tracing
oil bearing strata from place to place

REAL MONEY TALKS.
A Manufacturer Makes An Ingenious
Display.

Realizing that interest tables are apt
to be dry stuff, and that people are
more easily interested in an Exhibit of
real money than by a display of figures,
manufacturer who seeks to promote
habits of thrift among his employees, ar
ranged an ingenious display in the cafe
terra of his factory.
Behind glass frame were sixteen quar-
tiers, dime and two pennies, under the
legend To-day" An arrow pointed from
this money to another legend, New
Years Day, 1924" with exactly sixteen
quarters, dime and two cents. Under
meath the first arrangement of coins
were sixteen thrift stamps, with dime
and two cents, then an equal mark, fol
lowed by war savings stamp, and an
arrow pointed to S. bill under the
coins on the opposite side.
This was indeed a graphic way" says
Mrs. F. L. Higginson, savings director for
New England, "of showing that $4.l2 in
itself would not grow at all during five
years, whereas invested in thrift stamps
it will earn nearly another dollar"
