WHEELING BABIES
 BACKWARD GIVE 'EIM
 WRONG VIEW IF LIFE

It is all due to babies facing the rear when riding in perambulators, says q noted savant in explaining why some children are backward
 The expert opinion is offered by Professor Hamilton of the Flagstaff observatory, who asserts that infants get their view of life from a recedin 2 base as their carriage rolls along and forever after have the wrong slant on things in general.
 why are so many children back ward?"
 That question: which has been asked so often, is easily answered, according to Professor Hamilton of the Flagstaff observatory scientists who. ordinarily, are busy studying the canals on Mars.
 For once, however, in the ease of Prof. Hamilton, they have digressed to consider a matter much nearer than Mars, and infinitely closer 70 the l hearts of all mothers
 It is a mistake, says Professor Ham l ilton, for mothers to push baby car riages in which their little dears sit facing them. Mothers should draw the buggies behind them as the buggies
 of ante automobile days used to be drawn by faithful family horses. i Babies who sit facing their fond | mothers as the latter parade with them in neat little vicl1e--work ve-

hicles get a wrong perspective on lie
 Professor Hamilton is an OXford man and an expert mathematclan. Hence, when he says he has figured this out, the statement is to be treated with more than ordinary attention. He received his college education at Cam bridge, took d course at OXtor iafer, and at years of age was d proficient chess player.
 Alienists and neurologists through out the country are said to be giving close attention to the theory of the development of brain power and per ceptice faculties in children just pro- pounded by Professor Hamilton.
 s.Iave you noticed Professor Ham iltOn inquires. that the mother, father, nursemaid, colored help. or whoever happens to be wheeling the baby in the perambulator. invariably pushes the vehicle along instead of pulling it, and generally has the infant facing in a direction opposite to that in which 1t Is traveling2
 "I mean to say the child is really ~olng backwards, if you understand
 what I mean. Everything within the ~mau range Of it's notice comes to it from a receding base. My word! ! ou l now this is all wrong. It means, or course that the intellectual centers are receiving their early stimulation from ] quences cannot fail to be nationally l disastrous.
 All pedagogy concurs in the view i that the sense impressions received at ! the perambulatory stage Of child life
 are the most lasting-in fact. indelible and not to be afterward effaced. ] "If this mistake is not checked i'm mediately I look to see the next gen. eration of Americans entirely deficient ! in that forward reaching ambition which is the boast of the nation at the present time and we shall have a race

 ! "I mean to say that they are being
 started backwards, a good deal like the 1 Chinese. if you get what I mean. say l it does mean a bit unfair to these i ungsters-what?"
 While the professor did not make
 any further dire predictions his con- clusions appeared to warrant the fur | ther one that the next generation may ! be sadly lacking in foresight, whatevel
 may be said of hindsight.

HEASONING as transportation
 ( engineers, the Packard Com 4 NA pany has believed for years that the arbitrary factory ''ton rating" system was bound to become obSo- lete as soon as sufficient facts on transportation could be known.
 These facts are now at hand made available through more than 1000 Monthly National Standard Truck Cost System Reports, cover ing a period of two years.
 These reports confirm what Pack ard has so iong foreseen-the fallacy of rating a truck simply on the ton mage capacity of the chassis and engine under normal conditions.

Briscoe 1920 Sedan
With New Features
Is a Show Feature
Four Models on Same Chas.
sis Are Exhibited as the
Latest Thing for Tour
ing Cars and Roadsters

The feature Of the Briscoe exhibit is
the 1920 Sedan, which has been await
ed with great deal Of interest, owing
to the fact that it was expected to in
clude many features heretofore COL Id
cred exclusive to the higher priced cars.
The car itself fully lives up to it's
advance notices. The body, of massive
straight-line design, is finished in 8
special shade which has been christened
Briscoe True-Blue.
The interior is upholstered in at
tractive mohair velvet with the excep-
ton Of the drivers seat, which is fin
ished in lcathertex to conserve wear.
An exceptional amount of passenger
room Is provided, and there are four
doors, each fitted with lever-operated
disappearing window. A successful at
tempt apparently has been made to
carry out the inclosed-car builders
ideal-the perfect car for all seasons
and all weathers.
The touring car carries out the same
body lines as the sedan. An added
feature in cars of this type is four
weather-proof curtains opening with
the doors. Another is the attractive
instrument board. which contains, In
addition to the usual switches for igni-
ton and for operating the lights, a
pressure OIL gauge, gasoline gauge
and an ammeter. No-glare headlight
lenses are regular equipment on ali
models.
The Briscoe unit power-plant motor
is used, with fcur-point flexible sus-
pension, and there is three-bearing,
scientifically counterbalanced crank
shaft Of unusually heavy design, thus
providing unusual pickup and get
away. The drive is of the genuine
Hotchkiss type, through the rear
springs.

little, II at all. Thus, II such work
should be carried on by public officials
tho efficiency Of the movement might
be greatly impaired by the changes that
would occur from time to time. There
tore,. we suggest that public officials
should cooperate with an organization
Of this kind rather than take the lead,
although the league is perfectly willing
TO do the cooperating and permit others
TO take the lead if they cannot see
through the leagues eyes,
The league was organized originally
as local institution, but has been ex-
tended into Connecticut and Pennsyl-
vania. There are now on file in the
league headquarters letters from promi-
nent motorists in practically every
state in the Union, one of the latest
being from Harry &. Mock, secretary
and business manager of the National
Automobile Dealers Association, with
headquarters at St. Louis, which indi-
Gates that within reasonable length
of time the league will be firmly in
trenched as national organization,
and it was for this reason the name
was changed to the National Motorists
Protective League.

Pierce Arrow Ignition
and Transmission as
Well; Gain in Efficiency

Because Of the fame gained through
the performance Of the engine tho i'm
proved Pierce-Arrow dual-valve six
promises to command great interest at
the Automobile Show at the Grand
Central Palace this week.
ut is an engine that answers every
whim Of the driver" says Clarence w.
Cady, passenger car executive Of the
Arrow distributors. "It can crawl
along at four miles an hour and sud
denly squirt to racing speed; it can
hold steadily to the road at seventy
four miles an hour with top and wind
shield up.
Because there are two exhaust and
two intake valves for each cylinder,
the breathing capacity of each cyl
inder is increased enormously. Dead
gases are exhausted perfectly. Like
wise, full charge Of fresh vapor is
assured. through the double intake
valves"
The dual-valys engine Is more eco
nomical in gasoline consumption. The
saving amounts to IL per cent in the
48-horsepower model, and Is per cent
in the 38-horsepower size. The identi-
fication of Pierce-Arrow cars as SO or
4S-horsepower models gives no con-
ceptlon OF the force actually generated.
The actual horsepower developed is
enormously greater than that indicated.
Pierce-Arrow engineers have bet
tered the ignition system. Instead of
the Electromagnetic system, difficult to
synchronize, special dual ignition
system has been perfected by Pierce
Arrow and Delco engineers. This sys-
tenn uses two sets Of spark plugs, two
distributors and two timers, working
INDEPENDENTLY, yet in exact unison.
Gear shifting now is accomplished
with an ease not possible formerly. A
shift can be made noiselessly and
quickly from fourth speed to third
while the car is speeding at rate of
fifty miles an hour.
Two exhibits are offered by the
Pierce-Arrow company. One is at the
Grand Central Palace. A supplement-
airy exhibition is being held in the
showrooms Of the New York City
Pierce-Arrow distributors, the Har-
rolds Motor Car Company, 1893 to 239

and the Towncar. Flush panel con-
struction employed throughout elimi-
mates the overhanging Of the super
structure and eliminates permanently
many Of the inherent limitations of in
closed car use. Automatic window reg
ulators are used throughout, and the
glass panels so installed that they may
be dropped down into the lower body
pane's and the car thrown almost
completely open for summer driving.
"The Sportsedan is four-door. four
passenger model. in which the rear
quarter sections are solid and
have octagonal windows. The Sport
osine combines the features Of a
toy limousine with those Of a
diminutive sedan. 1t is distinctly
a sport car, and the adjustable glass
partition between the front and rear
compartments is an addition. 1t has a
seating capacity of six. The Sport
coupe has space for four passengers.
The Tourosine is essentially chauf-
feur-driven car. The partition between
the front and rear Compartments in
