from Dayton that the altitude record
Of 5000 feet, accomplished by Major
Schroeder some time since, was made
possible BY a supercharger and a
special fuel constituent.
The fuel component is special
compound of the aniline series and is
added to the gasoline. Its purpose il
to remove the tendency to detonate
and to permit the high compression
ratios provided by the supercharger.
Ordinarily an airplane loses about
so per cent Of its power at $4,000 feet,
due to lack of oxygen. With the super
charger the Liberty engine developed
practically its full horsepower at the
nigh altitude and only lost climbing
speed because of the atmospheric pres
sure drop.
While it does not appear likely that
supercharger can be applied salts
tactorily to the automobile engine be-
cause Of the fact that such devices
have been found to reduce the fuel
economy, there is reason to believe
that the invention of fuel constituent
which will prevent detonating may
lead to important developments with
regard to the handling of low grade
fuels.

A.. c. Koeppen of this city has re-
cei' ed some Pilgrim Tercentenary
half dollars that are of much inter-
est. ON one side Of The coin is pie
ture of the Mayflower and on he
other side bust of a Pilgrim father.
Mr.. Koeppen secured the coins from
Boston. He is informed that the CEN
tenary association nets something over
100000 from the sale of these coins
and is wondering If the same plan
could not be worked in connection
with the electrical exposition to be
held in Portland in 1925. Mr.. Koep-
pens idea is that the Portland expo
sition use one half the coin and that
the other side be devoted to Round

AD MAN TRAVELS FROM
COAST TO COAST IN CAR

Conducting a coast to coast business
with headquarters in Chicago is no
task when one has a dependable car,
says H. p. Wilson of Chicago, who
controls his own advertising business
in the principal cities and travels eN-
clusively by automobile.
Mr. Wilson is justly proud of the
performance of his car, an H-SiN-45
Buick, which still has its original spark
plugs and has been in use constantly
since its purcahse, on cross country
trips over roads of all descriptions.
Il haven't even had the valves

like charm. on it sescond trip to
Seattle. we averaged over two humid
red miles day, and throughout the

feature that one of the tires contains
some of the Seattle air with which il
was filled last September when we left
Seattle for Chicago. Since then we
have visited Cleveland Detroit and

Same Firm Name in
Bath, Eng, and Bath, Me.
(Bath, Me. TimeS)

In a recent issue of the London,
England. Illustrated News was no
ticed an advertisement of William H.
Smith & Son and the similarity of
the names caused the paper to- be
sent to Edward 3. Smith, of the Bath
firm of William HI. Smith & Sons.
The Bath business house was
founded away back in 1912 in a lit
tie store that was located at Front
and Commerce streets by the late
William H. Smith, who resided on
Middle street in a 2 liz story house
that was on the site of the present
residence of Edward B. Smith at 920
Middle street. Mr.. Smith, the senior
member of the firm, married one of
the handsome Winslow girls for
whose father, North end ship
builder, Winslow's Rocks were
named. The original store of VIII
liam III. Smith was a grocery and
sailors Quitting store and as the
business grew, Mr.. Smith moved
across the street into u large store
that was underneath old Columbian
hall where he continued to conduct
u general grocery with an extensive
sideline of explosives, chiefly pow
der, in the old days, and he built
the first powder house Of brick on
a ledge near what is now Kelley
field.
The original business in the small
Front and Commerce street store
was established in 1912 and the pres
ent firm name was established when
the seniors oldest son, the late Con-
verse Lily Owen Smith. was admitted
to the business as partner in 1882
This store under Columbian hall
was about where the Edward Pep
per store now is and on the site of
the Commerce street corner shop is
now Liberty theatre. Under the Co.
lumbar hall where now stands the
Y. M. c. A. block, neighbors of Will
liam III. Smith in the old days were
Charles Russell, who ran market,
John H. Mcclellan, grocer and Proc
tor, who had q market, later owned
by Henry M. Sanford. Frost was q
grocer about where the candy store
of the Spears is now.
The w. H. Smith store in the old
days was faGorite resort of retired
ship owners and deep sea command
ers. Oliver Moses was an habitue
of the store and Capt. Charley owen.
one of the most famous of the old
time deep-sea commanders. There
were always near the stove in the
center of the store two easy chairs
and these were always occupied by
two of the magnates of the town.
The grocery here was continued DUR
ing the lifetime of the senior MEM
Der of the firm.
When the business was moved To
its present location in the Sagada-
hook block, the groceries were
dropped in favor OF novelty goods
and the line of sporting goods. guns
and fishing gear was made q spe-
cialty. 1t has been run under the
management of the present owner
Edward B. Smith, for a score or
more years as novelty goods emuo-
rum. with large line Of cutlery and
sporting goods.
