til his country called him to the col
ors. He entered the service on July
%, 1918, going to Camp Grant. For
two weeks he was in the depot bri-
gade, and then was transferred to the
342 infantry, unit of the famous
Black Hawk Division, and in this reg
iment was two weeks in training,
when he was transferred to Camp Up
ton, N. Y.
With his regiment he landed in
England on Sept. a. and was on the
island a week. He was then taken to
LaMans, France, for intensive train
ing, and then his regiment was used
for replacement purposes, and he was
placed in the seth infantry and with
this regiment went into action. He
was shot by a German machine gun
in the act Of going over the top" on
Nov. 10, at the battle of Preny Ridge.
His death is said to have been instan-

was much beloved by his officers and
comrades.

OH. CRAHK-PINS
OF AUTO ENGINE
Chief Reason Why Bearings Wear
Fast is That They Are Not
fabricated Properly.
GOOD SYSTEM IS DESCRIBED
Has Given Excellent Results and Elm
mated Most of Connecting-Rod
Bearing TroubIe-Study In
terror of Engine.

The adjustment of the connecting
rod bearings is one of the most COM
mon repair jobs on an automobile en-
CINE. Probably the chief reason why
these bearings wear faster than the
others Is that they are not fabricated
properly under all conditions. The
system described below has given very
good results and has almost elimi-
mated connecting-rod bearing trouble.
Most of the oil delivered to the main
bearings escapes the ends and flows
along the crank webs, and is finally
thrown off by centrifugal force. If
small scuppers are placed at the ends
of the crank-pins this oil will be
caught and may be carried through
the pin to the bearing.
In the right-hand illustration one
throw of the crankshaft is shown
with the scupper in place. The oil
leads are indicated by dotted lines.
The rad.al hole should be drilled first,
and should extend to the center of the
pin. Then a hole should be drilled
through the center of the pin until

to most crank-shafts. Sketch A shows
the layout or pattern, B shows a side
view and c an end view. Sheet brass
or copper should be used. The end of
the shaft should be smoothed slightly,
and then the scupper riveted or
brazed in place. The crank-shafts are
carefully balanced in high-speed
motors, so care should be used not to
change the balance any more than
necessary.
Before installing such a system a
careful inspection should be made, to
make sure that there is room for the
scuppers at all places as the shaft re-
wolves. Great care should be exer-
cised in laying out this work, as the
crank-shaft could easily be damaged,
and in job Of this sort mistakes are
very costly, usually necessitating the
purchase of new parts. A study of
the engines interior is essential to
every amateur motorists. E. Gibbs

Lonesome Work.
"On trip of several hundred miles
you may be making speeds which
would be terrific in an autO-140 miles
an hour. But at the height of smile
or more you have no realization of
speed, and sitting up there in the wind
and noise is lonesome work. The
stunts are more exciting, of course
but there is no competition, no audi
ence, no applause. Hurdling over the
ground at DaytOna Beach in a racing
car at two and one-half miles per min
ute, with 50-foot leaps from the
ground, or whirling around the Indian
apolis Motor Speedway track in the
5OO-mile race, with competitors con-
testing every lap-thats very different
stuff! Every minute has its problem
and its thrill. prefer to be down on
the ground, smelling the gas, eating

Ralph De Palma thinks there are
more thrills in auto racing than in fly
ing in an airplane. One day last fall,
While De Palma was serving as direc-
tor of flying at McCOok field, near Day
ION, o., an aviation officer invited him
10 take a trip in his plane. The motor
star accepted. He was somewhat new
ut flying then, ann also dubious. But a
director of flying is supposed to fly.
'Want to do Il few stunts?" asked
the officer, when De Palma was safely
strapped in. "a nice question !" COM
mented De Palma, afterward. "There
was only one ansWer-we did them 7"
Service Was Brief.
De Palma's service in aviation was
brief, as he enlisted a couple of months
before the war ended. But it lasted
long enough to give him a well-rounded
experience in flying, both in the stunts
which might be compared to the thrills
Of the speedway, and long distance
flying, which is comparable to the long
grind of automobile road racing. And

SUCCESS OF RURAL ROUTES
important Factors Which Must Be
Given Consideration in Motor
Transportation.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
There are four important factors
which must be given consideration by
the beginner in the field Of rural mo-
tor transportation. These four fac
tors are: CD The volume of farm
products produced along the contem-
plated route; (2) the volume of mis-
cellaneous hauling which could be Sc
cured to supplement regular loads; (3)
competition from other carriers which
would be encountered; (4) the charac-
ter of the highways over which the
trucks must run. 1t may safely be
said that the features mentioned
above will ultimately determine the
success or failure of any rural route.
