THE RED CROSS
IS REAL SERVICE

The work of the Red Cross Is not
confined to our boys on battlefield or
In hospital nor amidst The ruins Of Bel
gium and other portions Of devastated
Europe. One of Its great activities is
any necessary aid to the dependents OF
members of Americas military forces.
On the battlefield the Red Cross pre-
sents an heroic figure. In America,
removed from destruction and death,
the Red Cross steps silently to the
side Of the father and mother whose
boy Is "over there" and who need c0un-
sci and aid

Yellow Fever Mastered.

Reports from Ecuador Indicate that
Doctor N0guchl, the famous japanese
scientist, who is at present In that
country. has Isolated the bacillus
which causes yellow fever. and has
prepared an anti-serum comforting i'm.
munity on those exposed to the disease.
The discovery is being tried out on
Ecuadoran troops In the fevery in
terror.
The conquest Of yellow fever is one
of the important achievements. In the
Canal zone the first steps were taken !;
the fever was banished by sanitation.
But proper sanitation is an extensive
process and is impracticable in sparse
ly settled regions. So Doctor No
guchi's discovery comes to give need
full coup de grace to the old villain,

What Is a Boiling Point?

A boiling point is the temperature at which
liquid will begin to boil or vaporize.
In distilling given quantity Of gasoline the
rchner ascertains at what point each 10 per
cent will boil, until the entire quantity is evap-
grated or distilled. In this way he determines
what is known as the initial boiling point, as
well as all intervening boiling points in the
chain, up to the maximum, high boiling point.

The Gravity Test Discarded

The Governments Committee on Standard
cation of Petroleum Specifications stated in its
report: 1T will be noted that there are no grav-
ity limitations in the specifications for aviation
gasoline, nor in the specifications for motor
gasoline which are given later, for it has been
found that gravity is of little or no value in de-
tcrmining the quality of gasoline" The stand
ards adopted by the United States Government
are based on boiling points.

Boiling Points Tell the Story

Boiling points determine the vaporizing and
combustive 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 a con-
tinuous, uniform chain. There must not be too
many low boiling points, otherwise the loss in

Boiling Points the Real Test

Gasoline is known to the refner as one men,
ber of the petroleum family He distinguishes
each member of the family, not by gravity, but
by boiling points. Gravity is a feeting stand
ard of test, but boiling points are unchanging
in their value and always determine the quality
of the product. Knowing them the reiner can
keep his product uniform and reliable.

The United States Government
Standard Specifications
for Gasoline

The United States Government standard
specifications for gasoline are based on boiling
points-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.

storage by evaporation would be great. There
must be just enough low boiling points to va
porize freely and give easy starting. The higher
boiling points are necessary for quick accelera-
ton, high power and long mileage.
As combustion starts with the lowest boiling
points and flashes on through the gas, the con-
tinuous chain of boiling points-from the low
to the high is necessary for instantaneous,
full-powered combustion. Only straight-dis-
titled, all-reinery gasoline can have the contin-
uous, uniform chain of boiling points.
