Cole Aero-Eight Gas : d
Supply Is Always to y
Be Depended Upon

II motor is to function properly
under the varying road conditions,
under severe pulls and change Of
speeds the carburetor must be sup
piled with the correct amount of
gasoline to take care of.its demands.
This is accomplished in the Cole
Eight models by the triple
capacity vacuum gasoline feed tank.
The tank is placed on all Cole
models directly under the hood, in
side of the dash. 1t is easily acces-
siblc and is generally recognized as
the most dependable system of its
kind in use. With it the Aero
Eight motor may be expected to op-
crate perfectly whether on a long
hill, under hard pull or at ex-
oeedingly high speeds. The large
reserve supply Of fuel always ac-
commodatcd within the vacuum
tark reservoir answers the require
ments OF the motor at all times, and
the tanks size eliminates all pos
sibility of its running dry under Sc
we're pulls or at high speeds.

when General Pershing took him by

spoke few personal words Of ap-

Later in the summer, | spent
month and half with the American
sailors as' they came>on their three
or hve-day leaves to Paris. During
July and August, $1,000 of them
came. My part of this work was
purely social, as we found we must
keep these boys busy every minute
sightseeing. dancing or going
somewhere. They wanted to make
the most of their short stay.
A Typical Day.
"In September, I was sent TO
Gievres, which had been the larg-
est supply base of the A. E. F. At
that time il was chiefly a German
prison camp, and we worked with
the boys who formed their escort.
We had to make all of Our own rec
reation, as there were no towns of
any size nearby, and we had little
transportation. A typical day,
meant the making of several hun
dred doughnuts, keeping the Hut
library Strengthened up, sewing in
all spare moments, perhaps singing
at a funeral If one of our "buddies"
had gone West. going later to the
hospital for a sing around the piano,
with the boys who were well enough
TO be up, and ending the day playing
for the movies which we always
had when there was no other enter
tainment.
During October and November,
back in Paris after Gievres was
turned over to the French, our work
was much the same. The boys who
were there were finishing up the
work in the various departments OF
the army and had to be fed and en-
tertained. AS many of them were
furnished with commutation Of ra-
tions, several hundred ate their reg
ular meals at the one big canteen
we had open. The problem OF the
homesick doughboy is much the
same, whether he is in a city or
lonely camp; and | am sure Afneri-
can girls felt it a privilege TO be
where they were so needed and so
much real work could be done"

Pierce-Arrow Tests
Engines With Most
Modern Of Devices

The Pierce-Arrow Motor Cav
company of Buffalo has just conf
pleted the installation Of perhaps the
most effective motor testing appa-
ratus employed by any automotive
plant in the country. Added proof
of the Pierce-Arrow company's de-
termination constantly to enhance
its quality standard is found in the
fact that every engine, whether truck
or passenger car, produced by the
company. is subjected to the rigid
test routine made possible by im-
proved electric dynamo-meter ap-
paratus.
Under the improved method Of
testing an engine passes through
three stages, 1t first is driven cleo
trically until the moving parts are
worn in, whereupon the engine IS
run for a number OF hours under its
own power at various speeds.
Throughout this entire period instru-
ments reveal accurately the internal
friction of the engine: its speed and
the horsepower developed by 1t.
The engine then is disassembled and
the parts inspected by experts, who
rebuild it after making adjustments
or corrections. :.
In the final stage, the engine is
coupled with dynanometer in ST.
lent room. At this stage OF the test
is recorded complete data as. to
power, gasoline consumption, inter
nal friction and other vital facts
Here, too, the tester adjusts ignition,
carburetion, valve action. etc, SO
that when the final ok is given a

Roos Finds Motorcycles
Are Hard to Procure Now

Manufacturers have their trbub-
les" says Victor H. Roos, local Har-
ley Davidson distributor, just re-
turned from an information trip to
the Harley-Davidson factory at Mil
waukee. Mr.. Roos finds that there
are reasons why the manufacturer
can't make prompt deliveries.
'Effccts Of the recent steel strike
are now being noticed" says Nj.
Roos. ".As steel is hard to procure,
ioundries have their labor troubles
owing partly to the fact that immi-
grafton OF foreigners has practically
ceased and because high wages in
their line makes the average Amer
lean reluctant to work in the mills.
Railroad conditions are also bad
thus making transportation prob
lem. 1t is question of obtaining
the goods at any price, and the enor-
nous demand both by foreign and
local buyers for their product has
put the Harley factory three months
behind in deliveries. when at this
time of the year they are usually
storing machines for spring delivery.

Motor Truck Great
Help in Keeping the
Price Of Meat Down

1T is due to the successful opera
ton of the motor truck as a live
stock carrier that small packing
centers are being established in diff
terent parts of the country" says
I. J. Dutton of the c. J. Dutton
Automobile company, local kissel
distributor.
Packing centers shorten the haul
to market, as the products do not
have to be hauled to distributing
centers before being sent out to the
ultimate market This, in turn, has
an important bearing on keeping
the cost Of meat down to a min
imum.
"lhe consumer i'll the vicinities OF
these packing centcrs is able to get
fresh meat at price lower than if
the meat had come a great dis
tance."

For the Good of
 the Community

CLOSING of the contract between the VI city and the Birmingham Railway, Light and Power Company for the use of by-product gas is the final chapter of an- other romance of industrial achievement.
 For generations the coal slept in it's bur- rows in Jones valley undisturbed. Then they dug it out and burned it crudely, un- suspecting the hidden riches rising in it's black and sulphurous fumes.
 A little later they discovered the art of coking this coal for use in foundries and in snelting pig iron Still the wealth-laden 2 fumes were allowed tranquilly to dissi- pate their riches.
 Then came the by-product oven. The ten thousand tar products contained in the former smoke ,wreaths that had black ened the face of the sky and offended the senses of men took the place of this waste and this annoyance. The coke comes cheaper to the furnace operator and the tar products afford additional revenue. Added to the proximity of raw material the by-product oven put the coal on the stability of southern pig iron,
 People generally thought little of the gas generated in the by-product process until they gradually learned it's uses. It is going under the boilers in the furnaces and steel mills and serving for operation of electrical machinery in mines and quarries. We had hay conception oi this gas being an idle product and one that the producers were practically throwing away We now realize that 1t is one of the stoutest links in the chain of by-product service.
 Not only do the producers of this gas 4 use it in their own behalf, but the surplus over and above their necessities is being taken by other industries who hitch on to this supply with pipe lines and bring the gas to their plants for industrial purposes. Thus by-product gas assumes position along with coal, oil and hydroelectricity as a stated source of heat light and power.
 The finishing touch to the courIe of by product gas was applied when through arrangement with the city and the utility, it was secured for the homes of the people of Birmingham; for light and heat for the individual. This is the ultimate of con- servation. It is achievement complete.
 By-product gas now serves its makers, it serves other industries and it serves each man, woman and child in the com munity. It has become veritable home product, manufactured at home of raw material nestling in our bosom and con- sumed athome in furtherance of economy in a basic industry and for the comfort and economy of the individual. That which does good from base to pyramid is a supreme benefaction.
 The contract is good for the city, for the people, for the utility and for the iron maker producing the gas. That is much hotto th an if if had haen good for but one
