Boiling Points Tell the Story

Boiling points determine the vaporizing and
conbustive qualities of gasoline. They decide
the action of the gas developed from gasoline.
They are the only true measure Of gasoline
value.
An ideal gasoline has boiling points in con-
tnuous, uniform chain. There must not be too
many low boiling points, otherwise the loss in

The United States Government
Standard Specifications
for Gasoline

The United States Government standard
specifications for gasoline are based on boiling
ponts-not gravity. Drafted as they were by
impartial Government experts they are gener-
ally considered, in the light of conditions today,
as the most practical standard for gasoline.
They insure an efficient and satisfactory gaso-
line and at the same time have due regard for
the best utilization of our petroleum resources,
and the maintenance Of reasonable prices to the
consumer.

Boiling Points the Real Test

Gasoline is known to the refiner as one mem
Der of the petroleum family. He distinguishes
each member of the family, not by gravity, but
by boiling points. Gravity is heeting stand
ard of test, but boiling points are unchanging
in their value and always determine the quality
of the product Knowing them the rehner can
keep his product uniform and reliable.

CTS he had, to my way Of thinking, was his greatest achievement, and showed his real generaliship. There is not 8 single player on his staff who has not
 shown marked improvement over last
 year. Moran handled his men in clever manner, and l do not think there is single one who has been overworked, 'or who is not going into the world s cham pionshik primed and confident of emerg- ing victorious.
 Cincinnati is a good hitting club, has shown itself to be all the season, and in
 that respect is better than the Boston club was in 1914 It also has more Speed on the bases than we had. We had more effective pitchers in Rudolph, James and Tyler, and 1 am sure we played smart CT baseball. We had a superior organ ization in concentrating our efforts and for that reason could produce more runs in the pinches than the Reds can to- day.
 T am not trying to deprive Moran and his men of any credit. They are entitled to all they can get, and any team that can come from behind and make three or more runs and win games as the Reds have done this season is deserving of recognition and is not to be held cheaply The Reds have been doing just this thing all the season and that is why l expect them to continue in the worlds series.
 "while Moran is getting all the credit for what the Reds have done this year, the work of Larry Kopf at short does not want to be overlooked I think he Is entitled to as much of the glory as is Moran or any other member of the team. I believe Cincinnatis success in getting him for shortstop finished off the infield defense of the team and put it where it could make effective pitching count for something.
 "As to the White Sox pitchers, l think Eddie Cicotte will be stumbling block for the Reds. /He is more like Dick Rudolph than any pitcher I know. mixing his assortment so that the batters can not get a toehold Like Rudolph he has a peculiar delivery which will probably bother the Reds as Rudolph did all this season. Yet one does not want to place too much faith in Cicotte. I have seen the Reds rally and hit Rudy hard in spots. and because they have the punch may do the same to Cicotte in the world series. They are troubled by left handlers and Williams, I believe, is of the type who can hope to stop the Reds"

GEORGE STALL|NGS
 PICKS CINCINNATI
Original Miracle Man Says Splendid Morale of Reds
 Must Triumph
By OSCAR c. REICHow

Here is the unbiased opinion of man who was first called the Miracle Man of baseball, who led the Boston Braves to the National league pennant in 1914 and then set new record by piloting his team to victory in four games con secutively over the Athletics in the worlds series. He is 9 deep student of the game, knows the merits of ball play ers and is probably as keen judge Of strength of ball teams as any manager in the game. Listen to what George T. Stallngs has to say about the Gin cinnati Reds chances in the worlds series:
 Those Reds have the same fire, snap and confidence which the Braves had in 1914, and I expect them to go through and win the worlds championship from the White Sox.
 ssWhen any ball team gets the idea that it is the greatest ball team on earth, and when it comes from behind, takes the lead and holds it, as has the Cincin- uati club. it is next to impossible to stop it. The clubs in the National league could not stop it, and they certainly tried as hard as they could to do so.
 Few baseball critics gave the Reds ehancse when the season started Ii was the same with the Braves in 1914 l believe that most managers in the league realized there were some good hitters on the Cincinnati team, but at that time 1t did not look as if Pat Moran had pitching staff, and 1t was 8 question whether he could get them together to play tight, concerted baseball.
 'Moran's effort in producing good working pitching staff out of what pitch
