NEW BUICK
SALESROOM
is NOW OPEN
Charles E. SiIsby Has Taken
Entire Building On
Eastern Avenue

The spacious two story building
on Eastern Avenue which was the
home Of the Morning Caledonian and
their printing plant, is now occupied
as salesroom for the popular Buick
cars and Charles E. Silsby, the gen-
eral distributing agent i'll this section
is certainly to be congratulated upon
securing such Il central and desirable
location. Through the summer
months the building was entirely rem
ovatcd and all the partitions in both
the basement and the first floor taken
out that there. might be plenty of
space for. the cars. The basement
will be used for the storage of sec
ond hand cars, and when the fire
station is moved there will be good
roadway from Eastern avenue to the
basement floor.
The ground floor is entered by a
fine concrete runway and the whole
Of the room, which is 80 by 60 feet
is given up to the display Of 1920
models. Just now Mr.. Silsby is show
ing the following popular types: a
three passenger roadster, five pas
senger touring car, seven passenger
touring car, and a four passenger
touring coupe. These provide enough
models to enable the purchaser to
select the car that is exactly equip
ped to serve him for the utmost linn
it of his demands for utility,
The Buick valve-in-head 1920 mo-
dels represent nearly 20 years of
constant improvements until pro-
duct has been created that combines
comfort with service to remarkable
degree. That Mr.. Silsby's fine dis
play has already brought results is
attested by the fact that he has just
sold Buick cars to Stephen c. Car
pentcr,, H. J. Johnson of McIndoes
and A. z. Craig of West Burke.
Mr.. Silsby will use the Eastern
avenue building solely for storage
and sales of cars and keep his 9th
er large establishment at No. II
Railroad street where all kinds of
repairs will be made and accessories
carried.
Besides handling the Buick cars,
which enjoy such wide popularity
in this section, Mr.. Silsby is agent
for the famous G. NJ. c. truck, the
car that was so generally used over
seas in the great war. These trucks
are made in five different capacities
from three-foulths Of a ton to fivd
tons and Mr.. Silsby has one of the
two ton capacity, known to the trade
as Model Al.

HENRY FORD
MADE YEAR TEST
ON OWN CAR
Starting and Lighting Sys-
TEN Was First Begun
In 1911

Henry Ford tested the Ford Start
ing and lighting System on his own
car for one year.
Ten months ago the Ford Motor
Company was not manufacturing
Electric Starters; today the output
of its Starter Department is greater
than that of any other manufacturer
of electric starting devices in the
world. It's nearest competitor makes
one thousand day, whereas the
| Ford Company's output is fast APP
preaching the three thousand mark,
two thousand eight hundred and
eighty one already having been man
ufactured in one day.
The Ford starte1--and generator,
for it is really two separate units
is not the result of a new idea or Of
a sudden decision More than eight
years ago Henry Ford's vision saw
the need, and his electrical engineers
were Instructed to begin expert
menting. After seven years of con-
slant research, which took into CON
sideration the many different eli
mates III which the Ford car is used,
together with the factors of size and
weight and an adaptability to guam
tity production, % trial jobs were
built. These were tested in ma ny
different ways. Mr.. Ford himself
used one on his car for year. Still
the engineers continued their exper-
iments and Improvements.
Then came the order from the
Government for $4,000 three-ton
tanks, each one of which was to be
equipped with two synchronized Ford
motors. A starter was essential, so
the one now being installed on Ford
cars was evolved. But, only one
starter and generator was used to
turn over the two Ford motors in
each tank. January /, 1919 the Ford
Motor Company began equipping en-
closed cars with this new starting
and lighting system. Ford engineers
say that although the entire system,
Starter and Generator, weighs only
81 pounds, it produces a higher tor
que output Constant rotary motion)
pound for pound, than any other sys-
tenn on the market.
When the department for building
the Starting and Lighting Systems
first began production, 80 hours la
Dor was charged to each unit, but
now that machinery and equipment
have been installed, the time per unit
is four hours. Two huge armature
impregnating ovens have been in
stalled, each with a capacity of 1900
every eight hours. In these ovens
the armatures are dried, soaked in
varnish and dried again. Eight hours
time is required for this one opera
ton.
The power from the starter to the
motor is applied through the we'll
known Bendix drive, which automa-
tically engages the starter and then,
once the motor is started, the start

War Originates
MNew Service Plan

st. Louis automobile dealers are
still finding. it profitable to make use
of one feature of their business
WHICH resulted from war conditions
AS result of the governmental re-
quest for the elimination Of night
and holiday service to release men to
motor transport service, the St.
Louis Automobile Manufacturers and
Dealers Association selected the St.
Louis Motor Service Co. to handle
all work of this nature.
Not only did they discover that
it made possible the release of a
large number of men, but that it en-
abled them to reduce their expenses

at a time when the manufacturers
were finding it difficult to deliver
them cars in adequate numbers.
After the signature Of the armis-
tice, most of the dealers continued to
keep their places closed nights, Sun
days and holidays, and consequently
most of the road trouble coming at
these times is taken care of by this
healthily growing war baby.
At the outset, the new company
installed four Dodge Brothers motor
cars which they put to use as service
cars. So satisfactory is their re-
Spouse to the trying demands made
upon them, that the officials of the
company have expressed their inten-
ton to add to their fleet as the occa-
sion demands.

No Smallpox In
Newport Station

A small sized panic was started
few days ago by a rumor that some
one was quarantined at the detention
house used by the U. s. immigration
officers in Newport for small pox.
The rumor was entirely unfounded,
and when sifted down, was found to
be case of chicken poX, which the
local examining physician had pro
nounced not entirely cured, and
mother and child were returned to

came.

Within another. 80 days or six

LEGISLATURE NEWS
|ROTAN BILLS GO
TO GOVERNOR
Only One Vote in Opposition
to the Much Discussed
Measures

The Philadelphia District Attor-
ney bills, which were the subject or
lively Senate hearing last MONTH
were passed finally in the House
with one vote in opposition. They
are the first of the much discussed
Philadelphia bills to pass. They
give the District Attorney his own
detective force of sixteen men under
a chief county detective; add four
assistant district attorneys to the
staff, and establish fees.
Reconsideration of the defeat of
the bill enlarging the Allegheny
county board of tax revision was
accomplished after long debate be-
tween Allegheny county members
and verifcation of the roll. The
vote was 10S to ~. When recon-
sidered, the bill was put on the post
poned calendar. Messrs. Martin,
Vickerman, McVicar and Marcus
assailed the bill as a useless increase
of places and it was defended by
Mr.. Simpson.
The West bill to increase salaries
of legislators was recalled from the
Governor for amendment for the
second time amid considerable
laughter. The bill was amended af-
ter having been recalled some time
ago.
Resolutions calling on Congress
to enact pensions for Spanish War
veterans were adopted on motion of
MIR. Reber, SchuyIkill.
The Senate bill reorganizing the
force of the State Insurance Depart
ment was passed and resolutions of
sympathy with Mr.. Sprowls, Wash
lngton, on the death of his father.
RESOLUTIONS calling upon the
united States Government to pro-
test against massacres and Ill treat
ment of Jews in Poland were adopt
ed IN the House. the rules recurring
that resolutions be printed being
waived. The first resolution came
from Mr.. Glass, Philadelphia. who
provided that the matter be brought
10 attention of Congress. The sec
ond was introduced by Mr.. Colder.
Philadelphia, and asked that the
American peace delegates be re-
quested to act.
