PEACE COMES
TO ROCK ISLAND
AS BENEDICTION
Some Attempted Celebration, But
Minority Accepted Last Word
With SOlemnity.

Peace came to Rock Islanders
Saturday night and Sunday as a
benediction after a sermon.
Celebrations, which were pre-
dicted, were not seen. A few per-
sons made a half-hearted attempt
to start a parade Saturday after
noon and a bonfire was set by some
that night on the river front.
The news of the signing was not
unexpected. 1t had been looked
forward to for some time, and al
though the first report brought
many people to their feet with
shouts, the majority heard the an
nouncement as a last word in a
solemn ceremony.
Ministers Speak OF It
Ministers spoke of peace Sun
day in their sermons; and it was a
subject which seemed to benefit
their words better than those of
the soap box patriot and platform
performer.

A LETTER received last week from one
L \ who signs himself Constant User
asks why the Standard Oil Company
Qndiana) insists that the gravity test for
gasoline is fallacy.
Not having his address we are answering
the inquiry here.
When the Standard Oil Company CIndiana)
began manufacturing gasoline the sureSt,
safest most practical method known for
determining the quality of the product was
by testing it with hydrometer.
In those days all of the crude oil used came
from single locality. It was of the same
base always and the products refined from
it were uniform
AS the industry grew and oil wells were
found In widely separated localities It was
discovered that the crude varied so greatly
even when taken from wells m the same
Locality that the hydrometer no longer
could be depended upon to indicate the
quality Of the refined product with satisfac-
tory exactneSS.
Some other system of measurement had to
be used.
The chemical engineers employed by the
Standard Oil Company Indiana) who were
asked to solve the problem, suggested that
the boiling points of the several fractions,
which go to make gasoline. would give the
desired result. They would be constant
and the usefulness of the product would not
vary so long as the range of boiling point
fractions remained unchanged.
The practical usefulness of the suggestion
was instantly recognized and the Standard
Oil Company Qndiana) Immediately adopted
it as the basis of their manufacturing practice.
By making its product conform to the
boiling point standard, it was possible to
guarantee uniform results at all times, even
though the hydrometer might show varia-
ton in gravity.
We know uniformity is of the most vital
importance to the ultimate consumer. That
is why we insist that gravity is of no value
in determining the value of gasoline as a fuel,
because it can not indicate the gaps.
The Standard Oil Company Qndiana) is
steadfast In its endeavorto render the greatest
service possible to the motoring public and
it is constantly trying to so improve the fuel
and oils it sells as to give to its patrons a
greater value for the money they spend
with it.

AIR EXPRESS TO
SAIL WEDNESDAY
TO ROCK ISLAND

Rock Island will be visited by
the worlds first aeroplane express
next Wednesday when Lieutenant
David L. Behncke brings a ship
ment of Society Brand clothes from
Chicago to Mosenfelder & Sons.
Behncke flies a Curtiss bi-plane
and will land on a 40 acre field To-
Gated at Milan near Rock Island
Southern station, where he is
scheduled to arrive at lao O'Clock.
He will be met by a special COM
mittee of welcome, headed by May
or H. NJ. Schriver
An auto truck will rush the mer-
chandise from the field to the store.
Ample time will be given to inspect
the plane and meet the aviator.
Wednesdays fight calls for stops
at Mendoza and Kewanee prior to
the plane arriving here. Behncke
leaves Chicago at $50 a'clock and
is due in Mendoza at 1920. He re-
mains there As minutes and will
arrive in Kewanee at - O'Clock
with a shipment for Frank Hyman.
The plane will leave Kewanee at
1 O'Clock and will be here 40 min
utes later.
Arrangements are being made for
welcoming Lieutenant Behncke and
as this city is the terminal for the
days flight, the plane will remain
on the grounds the greater part OF
the afternoon. The general public
will have an opportunity to meet
Behncke and inspect the plane be
fore it returns to Chicago at night.
On his trip from Chicago to Rock
Island, Aviator Behncke will carry
a long range camera as he is an
experienced aero photographer
The Curtiss planes will be distin-
guishable at a great height because
Of their checker-board wings. They
are capable Of a speed Of rs miles
an hour.
Ninety-five per cent of the Amer
lean and Canadian aviators were
trained in this model.
The Society Brand aero express
service is a permanent innovation
and additional planes will be pur-
chased as needed. The present
schedule is based on a flying radius
OF 500 miles from Chicago and an
average of nine towns a week will
be visited.

j TO CONVENTION
Interest Manifested as to Candi.
dates for Illinois COnsti-
tutiOnaI Convention.

With the primary to come in
September, and the election in No
yember, to select representative to
sit in the Illinois constitutional
convention in Springfield, which
begins Jan 5. possible candidates
FOR this district are being dis
cussed.
In Rock Island N. M. Sturgeon
/ is backed by a strong following
for the honor, and if he enters the
contest, he is certain to be sup
ported by a political force of
strength. Other likely candidates
from this city mentioned are C. ].
Searle and Judge r. W. Olmsted.
In Moline, Cyrus E. Dietz, Frank G.
Allen and Burton F. Peek are re-
Igarded as available in the selec-
ton of delegates.
So far these have not been
avowed candidates for the honor,
but it is believed that no one will
decline the opportunity to be
named a delegate if the chances for
election appear bright. This dis
trict, including the counties of
Rock Island, Mercer and Hender-
son, will be entitled to two mem
bers in the convention, and it is
hardly possible that Rock Island
county will be conceded both. AS
the situation now stands, however,
Mercer is not making any strong
preparations to elect one of its
own.
In such an event, it may be pos
sible for Rock Island and Moline
to name both delegates, one from
the end towards which Rock Island
will work unless noise is heard
from Mercer and Henderson.
The primary will be Sept. 10 and
the election Nov. 4.
When Senator Martin R. Carlson
was in Rock Island last week. he
discussed the coming convention
which will be an historical event
kDf great importance.
Want Best Brains.
Speaking of the coming event.
the senator said it looks as If the
best brains in the state will have
a hand in framing the new consti-
tuition. The strongest minds in the
state will be attracted because of
the opportunity afforded to take
part in leaving impressions that
will be felt through the life of the
and into that of the
next, the senator declared.
Compensation of delegates was
fixed at 81 900 in order that brainy
men of small means could afford
to undertake the task, while the
mere politician would not be at
tracted by the amount Of the re-

You may put me down as an
other Bloomington man who will
always have a good word for Tan
lac, for the medicine has relieved
me entirely of a case of stomach
trouble and kidney complaint from
which l had suffered for years,
said R l. Johnson, the well known
North Center street, Bloomington.
Ill. while discussing the premier
preparation recently.
Mr. Johnson is not only a pop
ular figure in business circles, but
is also a well known citizen and
prominent IN social affairs.
Il have been bothered more or

for this reason, l had to decline in

1 would twist and squirm about in
my chair trying to find some way
to sit so that the pain in my back
would ease up. And at night this
pain with my nervousness would

sible for me to get a good nights
rest. l would get up mornings all

my condition had reached the
