FLOOD CAR GIVEN TEST
Three-Day Bath in San Antonio
Flood Gives Real Proof of
Motor Car Construction

With the excitement and tur-
moil of the recent San Antonio
flood at its height, D. B. Spillar,
of the Exchange Sawmills Sales
Co., recalled that he had left his
Dodge Brothers car in a storage
garage-and they had placed it
in the basement only the night
before. AS the flood grew worse
and the car had been submerged
for three days, Spillar made up
his mind that there was nothing
left for him to do except smile
stoically and bid his roadster
a fond farewell.
A sorry-looking sight, soaked
with grease and mud as we'll as
water, the car was finely drag
ged out into the light of day. A.:
he found the expense of cleaning
and reassembling the car was
comparatively small, however, the
owner took the chance. To his
surprise, after a thorough clean
ing the enamel was as good as
before the flood, and the roadster
ran like a new car.
Of 40 or so cars stored IN the
basement, the Dodge Brothers
car was the only one which did
not requiring repainting AS Mr.
Spillar says, he feels that he
now has "a car that has stood the
acid test"

WILMINGTON. DEL. July .
The Du Pont Company has developed
and perfected formula cor the
manufacture Of straight dynamite
which results In that explosive being
proof against freezing even in zero
temperatures. AS a consequence Of
this development. the company has
determined to discontinue the manu-
facture OF it's former straight dyna-
mite and hereafter all this Kind OF
explosive will be made by the new
lowfrcezinG method.
TIL" perfection of tho formula is the
result Of years of experimentation in
the laboratory and in the field. ind
marks one of the greatest advances
in the art OF explosives manufacture.
Straight dynamite has for years been
the standard of the world in nearly
every kind OF open work. tut dis
advantage has been its liability to
freeze at temperatures below 80 de-
grcs Fahrnhcit.
AS any dynamite loses some part.
IL not all. of its efficiency when
chilled or frozen. many attempts have
been made to make il low-freczing
The perfection of the new powder

possible tofuse straight dynamite the

tcnGant dangers, has practically been
eliminated.
The new explosive has been fully
tested and proved and the formula for
making il has Eccn made standard in
