Some Airplane Gas Is Pink.

There is a difference between auto. mobile gasoline and airplanc gasoline. For aircraft the gas must be lighter and more volatile, that is, evaporaft more readily, than ordinary gas. This causes it to work bet CT at great altl tudeS There are three grades of gas oline for our airpIanes one for traln ing planes. better grade of gasoline for bombing planes and the very heS' grade for the fighting planes 'FiGht
 ing gas" as it is called, is ro'oret pink This is to distinguish it from other grades so that inexperienced men working at the aviation fields will not use this valuable gasoline for other purposes. This pink gas is as pure as it can be produced refined and doubly refined and strained or filtered until there are no impurities left in it.-American Boy.
