But Messner is going them one bet ter. To lend a little zest to the affair he is going to have guessing contest wherein every man, woman and child in the city will have an opportunity to win $50 or at least $25. One guess per person will be allowed on the number of miles the car runs in the seven days. The fifty fish will be handed to the person who guesses the closest and the twenty-five will go to that individual who makes the second best guess.
 Tn order to make a guess it will be necessary to go to Messners place at 401 West Adams and there fill in a printed ticket which will be placed in a receptacle for that purpose.
 Three shifts of drivers will pilot tho Sedan. They will take turns each sit- ting behind the wheel for eight hours. The drivers have not been named aS yet. but they will be from the Mess ner organization.
 In order that interested guessers may not jump on the running board and take a look at the e-Bedometer that instrument of record will be painted with a deep impenesCable coat of black
 There will be no regular itinerary for the ear on it's weeks run. It will 1 be on the down town streets most of the time, but just to make the guess ing more interesting an occasional run will be made out North Central or on some other frequented highway. The car is to be illuminated in order that everyone will know just exactly what it is and so that those who possess the sporting instinct may wander down to Messner's and make a guess on the number of miles run.
 A careful record of the gas and oil consumed will be kept and the figures published at the end of the run.

you had a pain without telling him where and asked him to diagnose your i'll, he would be no worse off than am in trying to guess at your cars trouble. However, if the knock is in the motor it may be caused by looseness of some part. The bearing ends may be flat tened so that the cranNshaft moves back and forth. There may be play in the driving unit, allowing the clutch to slip. The flywheel may be loose. If you will write me and give me spe- cific details I will be glad to try and help you.

Foundation work is well under way for three additional furnaces. making a to- tai of five, contemplated to complete the group at the Ford Rouge plant These furnaces will all be of the most modern design and will be numbered among the works $ largest The con- sumption of iron and steel for Ford cars is estimated to be approximately 5000 tons every 24 hours.
 The ceremony which marked the firing up of the huge smelter carried Henry Ford one step nearer to a real ization of a dream he has had for years-to see his own ships carrying the materials from the source of sup ply and to see these raw materials proceed through the various stages to the finished product, his automobile and tractor.
 Ore for the furnaces will come down the lakes from Minnesota and the Up per Peninsula of Michigan and be dumped into giant concrete bins built on the bank of the River Rouge. From the bin it is run directi- into the top of the furnace on an elevator called the skip hoist" Limestone also is to come in by boat. Vast quantities of limestone and ore already have been stored up for the furnace
 The charge which was touched off had been in the furnace for months, gradually being heated to the point where the blowing" could take place.

OWNERS SERVICE DEPAR TMENT
 .Q.-Will you please explain 10 me what "gear ratio" means? I am T new car owner and I want 70 know what the various terms mean.
 A.-The gear ratio in which you are interested means the speed of the crankshaft in relation to wheel speed on high gear. If the gear is expressed as four to one it means that the motor turns over four times to each reNo.r- ton of the wheels on dlreeG.
 Q.-Can I use the magneto of my Ford car to charge the storage battery, the car being equipped with dry cells for ignition? Would this process be liable to injure the magneto?
 Alt is impossible to use the mag ncto of the Ford car to charge d sror- age battery without placing a rectifier in the circuit. The storage battery can only be charged with direct cur rent, whereas the Ford magneto pro- duces alternating current. If the rec tifying unit is used no harm would re- suit to the magneto.
 QI have a car with an old motor, a Chalmers 1912 or 1913, I believe. friend suggestes porting the cylinders, which he has done on his Ford car with success. Do you think it would work out in my case2
 A.-Porting would probably help. I think you will find, however, that by fitting larger exhaust valves and cams that will hold the valves open a little longer you will obtain the de- sired resuts at less expense and trouble.
 Q.-Is a rotary valve engine the same thing as a revolving cylinder engine2 Please settle a bet
 A.-The rotary valve engine. is not the same as the revolving cylinder en- zine, which is usually referred to as a rotary engine. In the rortary valve motor the valves are in the form of cylindrical rods, which revolve in oper- ation and give that name to the type. In the revolving cylinder or rotary motor on the other hand. the crank shaft remains stationary and the cylinders turn around. The Gnome airplane engine is an example of this type.
