It would seem that much could be
done in the way of improving con

fans Of the airplane propeller type
and gearing them TO operate at
their most efficient speeds below a
car speed OF 10 miles an hour. The
most efficient speed for this type Of
fan is in the neigh borhOod OF 1900
revolutions a minute depending. OF

LONG DRIVEWAY
F0RTIFIES DEALER WITH
SALES ENTHUSIASM

We've noticed a decided increase
in dealer enthusiasm. since our deal
ers have had TO drive their cars
away from the factory instead OF
shipping by rail" said r. G. Ewell,
sales manager Of the Allen Motor
Co. of Columbus. Q.
When first the shortage in ship
ping facilities was felt motor car
workers worried about the lack.
They have found, however. that
there is no better kind of introduce
ton between the product and the
dealer, than the long Driveway ex-
perience.
If the car is a good performer,
the trip home from the factory will
fortify the dealer with selling en-
thusiasm such as he could not pos
sibly get from the short test rides
ordinarily made close 10 his sales
room.

The fan is a most important ele-
ment In the cooling system Of any
car truck or tractor engine-yet IT.
Is an element that has received but
scant attention on the part of the
designer and the manufacture. a
simple experiment which any car
owner can indulge in with little or
no trouble and In a few moments

instance. that under certain condi-
tions the fan. instead OF promoting
air circulation through the air pass

must be borne in mind by owners
who have converted Ford cars in

any one of the several conversion
units available for that purpose. II

mother point in connection with the
fan arrangement which is found on
many present-day cars, and which
negatively in the matter of provid-
ing proper cooling. is shown by
sketches in figure and 4. In fig
ure the full line drawing Of the
fan illustrates a common method Of
loca ting the fan inside a sheet
metal housing. the theory being
that the air at the extreme edges
of the radiator will he detected to
the fan by the suction. as indicated
by the arrows. so that the full
radiating surface of the radiator is
available. II stands 10 reason that
if this theory were correct, if a small
hole were punched through the
housing at a point marked in
figure 3. the reduced pressure in
side the housing should tend TO pull
the air through this hole.
