tappets, valves or other delicate tit
tie parts. There is no carbon to be
ground out--for carbon only gives
the sleeves 4 glasshard surface and
reduces friction to an absolute min
imum.
Its Superiority.
Superiority OF the sleeve-valve
over the poppet-valve type, involv-
ing in four cylinder Knight engine
qualities surprising even the six
cylinder engine OF the poppct-valve
type has been we'll established.
"Now, the principles of the Silent
Knight are blended into Mighty
Knight with a six-cylinder power
plant which has a smooth flow Of
power and fiexibility unsurpassed.
Better than ordinary engines
when first it runs, each 1000 miles
of road travel adds materially to the
power, fexibility and efficiency Of
the R. & v. Knight Six.
Worthy Of Motor.
ut must not be thought that all
attention has been given to the new
motor in the R. 4 v. Knight.
Beauty, comfort and elegance have
had the same careful consideration
that has produced Americas Exclu-
sive Knight Six engine.
"In minutest details the r. & V.
Knight fulhlls every desire of the
automobile owner for luxurious ap-
pointments and comfort. Built low
upon its 127-inch wheelbase. there
is beautiful sweep from the front
OF the radiator throughout the whole
length. Unqusstionably it is ex-
quisitcly designed.
Marshall Ventilated springs in
upholstery Nare used throughout.
Show Spirit Of Builders.
"And in the same spirit, the
chassis also makes the nearest pos
sible approach to perfection. Perfect
balance of the car and installation
of roller bearings in the steering

LICHTNESST THE
GREAT Problem
OF AUTO EXPERTS
To Reduce Weight Without
Weakening Car Achieved by
Casting Motor From
Ignite.

How much can you tighten . mo-
tor car without weakening il!
10 iightness . good thing, provid-
ing you can obtain Il without sac
rihcing strength
These questions have been upper
most with engineers from the be-
ginning Of the automobile industry.
1t has been learned, through years
OF experience, that excessive weight
in motor car runs up the cost Of
maintenance, makes driving harder,
and detracts from the life OF the
car.
II is also obvious that the more
weight you build into a car the more
horsepower it takes to propel the
car itself; and there is nothing that
costs the manufactures 80 much as
producing the single factor Of horse
power. Besides, it is good engineer
ing to save all the horse power you
can for carrying live passenger
weight and to require as little as
possible for carrying dead, mechan-
ical weight.
Problem Not Easy.
All of which argues plainly that
the real job of the engineer 10 to
tighten his car just as much % he
can without weakening it.
The problem, however, 10 not 20
easy.
Until science found how to put
tensile strength into aluminium with
out materially increasing its specific
gravity, all that engineers could do
was to use smaller dimensions made
possible by finer steel. This latter
plan held out no hope for material
ly decreasing motor car weight Be-
sides there are many points In =
motor car where the use of steel is
not feasible.
With the development of a sturdy
aluminium alloy wherein is combined
both strength and lightness, the en-
gineering fraternity began to see
daylight.
Ignite, strong aluminium al
10y, is the basis of Premier con-
struction.
Reduce Motor 500 Pounds.
By casting our cylinder block and
crank case from Ignite, and by using
it at every mechanically feasible
point, we have reduced the weight
ofiour motor alone by 500 pounds.
Furthermore, our experience
with aluminium has enabled us to
satisfactorily handle the expansive
tendencies of aluminum-this single
stubborn problem having been
solved through our own patented
method of lining the cylinders with
a depountable gray iron sleeve,
completely surrounded by active
water circulation.
Another thing to remember is the
fact that we take the weight out of
the chassis at the most vital point
namely, from under the hood it.
self. Built-in motor weight 10 like
fat around the heart, it strikes at
the very life of the whole mechan-
ism. BY cutting 500 pounds out Of
the Premier engine, we obtain that
sprightliness and spirited throttle
response which can never be found
in any cast iron job.
