LIBERTY FUEL TEST
New Fuel Gums Motors-Made

thalene, and Some Solids as
Yet Undetermined.

The United States fuel administra-
ton, which reports many requests for
information concerning q gasoline sub
stitute called Liberty fuel" made
public recently information about it,
including the results of various inves-
legations covering it's composition, the
available supply of ingredients, and Its
efficiency, in a press bulletin issued
from Washington
TESTS made in the aeronautic labor
atories of the United States army and
placed at the disposal of the fuel adj
ministration resulted in information
that the fuel was made of approx
mately SIS per cent. of benzol; rs to
80 per cent. of Kerosene, and the re-
mainder of a small percentage Of

small quantities of dissolved solids.

1919 INDIANAPOLIS RACES
\ ATTRACTING ATTENTION
AS BEFORE THE WAR

The vitality of the motor car indus-
try, and its ability to assimilate pun-
ishment and come back smiling. has
never been more strikingly demon
strated than by the interest which race
manifesting in the 500 mile interna-
tional sweepstakes to be held on the
indianapolis motor speedway, May 81.

industry was hardest hit by the war.
Not only was the industry denied the
privilege Of keeping up even a small

and drill press. All of which was
agreeable to the automobile industry
for no one can question the whole
hearted devotion and patriotism of the
men Of motordom as revealed under
fire.
The big question now before the
sporting public is what part Eddie
Rickenbacher, the ace of American
aces, will play in this approaching
race. VIII he be an entrant? Will he
exhibit to the gathered thousands of
his countrymen his prowess as flyer
Or will be merely an inconspicuous
spectator?
Another question: Will the Euro
pean maker be sufficiently recovered
from the war to participate in the big
American sporting event to any con-
siderable extent? This latter question
seems pretty well answered by the an
nouncement that Jules Gaux has al
ready signed an entry blank and the

Christians and Chassagne driving. and
by the assurance of the speedway man.

best to throw himself in front of the
car 1t could not be done. Children
at play may suddenly break from the
group and run at top speed into the
path of a car and the motorist should
always keep this in mind. Expect the
unexpected and you'll be safe.
There are a lot Of rules that the
children can observe that will decrease
the number of accidents. but the mo-
torist must never feel that the re-
sponsibility is at all with the child as
Icing as the boy or girl is in sight"
The rules follow:
Look in both directions before
stepping off the sidewalk. The left
is most important because all trif-
fic should be coming from that d.
rection.
2-Never walk behind street car
without looking carefully for auto
mobiles or other street cars COM
ing from tho other direction. II is
much better to walk little farther
to the corner before crossing. j.
3-When possible always 60 to the
corner where the traffic policeman
is on duty. He is your friend.
4-When more than one child is
crossing the street hold hands
tightly, don't run, and DON'T
SEPARATE. Tho driver can miss
you If you stay together, but il you
separate one of you is almost sure
| to be struck.
| 5-If car is standing at the corner
or moving slowly some distance
away LOOK THE DRIVER IN
THE EYE to make sure that he
sees you and learn what he is go
| inu to do. Don't look at tho front
Of tho car. LOOK AT THE DRl-
YER.
6--When the streets are slippery
doR't take a chance in crossing
just because car is moving slow
| iy. A quick step is impossible for
the car and your action may cause
the car to skid and become unman-
ageable, thus endansering many
| lives, including your own.
j7-Don't read letters or books whom
/ crossing the street. Don't talk to
your friend, but keep your mind on
the fact that you are crossing
street where there is danger and
you must be alert.
e-ln playing ball or tennis it the
ball goes into the street don't run
after it without stopping first at
the curb to make sure that there
are no cars approaching.

The steering system OF the motor
truck should be thoroughly inspected
at least once every month. from post
to wheels, and fabrication should be
attended to every day. The Joints at
the ends Of the drag link should be
cleaned. adjusted and packed once
month. The oil cups at the ends OF
the rod and on the steering knuckle
should be filled every day. The post
case should be refilled with grease. A
general overhauling OF the system
should be made at least every six
months. The truck owner must learn
the lesson that enough time must be
allowed to perform these necessary
maintenance operations or the whole
service will suffer.

CRATER. IlhkiENSE IN SIZE
Extinct Volcano Of HaIeakaIa, in Ha.
waiian Islands, Is One Of the
Worries Wonders.

The Hawaiian islands possess ar
extinct volcano so immense that 6
large city could be set down inside
the crater. 1t Is ninety-seven miles
around the face of Haleakala, twenty
miles around the crater walls, and
10000 feet to the top. The crest was
ages ago blasted out to a depth OF
5000 feet, and flung aside in a series
of eruptions. strewing the mountain
with powders, lava and ash.
Within the crater thus formed, a
great cone and number of smaller
ones can be seen. It is so far down to
the floor of the crater that bowler
pushed in seems to fall In empty
space. The crash Of it's landing is
never heard.
The view from the crater of Mt.
Haleakala is accounted one Of the
most wonderful in the world. The
green fields of the island and the blue
Pacific are spread out before the OBJ
server like mighty map.
At 10000 feet above sea level natur-
al phenomena seem strangely differ
ent. The stars look larger and bright
er; the moons path is more clearly
defined, and it's rays give a stronger
light than they do at low altitude.
At dawn a procession Of clouds rolls
swiftly past like a foaming river tor
rent thousands of feet below. Then
the rising sun tints clouds and crater
with steadily deepening colors until
It is broad daylight~and the clouds
fade into mist.
Standing by the crater Of Haleakala
at sunrise you perhaps recall the old
Hawaiian myth which goes back to
the beginning of things. At that time,
says the story, the god Maui fmprison-
ed the sun in the hollow Of the vol
cano and made him promise to give
light and heat to the islands. From
this ancient myth comes the name OF
the volcano, Haleakala, house Of the
sun.

ANSWER TO OLD C0NUNDRUM
At Last Is Explanation Made as to
"Why Does Hen Cross
the RoadW

Now that savant has given serious
thought to the behavior and motive
Of hen crossing a road, an ancient
conundrum, one Of the best known In
the world, receives plausible solution.
Whoever has closely observed a hen
must have noticed that her eyes are
so placed that she looks on both sides
but does not look straight ahead. Her
left eye, for example, sees an ap-
preaching automobile, and her quick
decision is to run away from it. But
she cannot take her eye off the dan
gerous object. Instead of fleeing to
the right, which would take her off the
road, she runs to the left, constantly
watching the automobile, and so.
crosses the road directly in front OF it.
The savant approaches the conundrum
from point Of view different from
that Of the waglJo Miller, who is said
to have invented it, but the conclusion
seems to be much the same. The hen
wishes to cross the road, although It
might be added that her desire de-
ponds very MUCH on her way Of look
Ing at things. Christian Science Mon
