accumulating her energy for the
open highway. On the road to
Alexandria the car hummed into
activity. A curling highway, steep,
then low, enticed the car to great
er exhilaration. Scenes of a fresh
country rushed by. The soft hum,
or pleasant growl II you will,
sounded from under the digaified
hood of the engine like some chal-
lenge to the powerful hills.
Alexandria was entered and
passed at the junction of King
and Alfred streets. A straight
highway of strong macadam lay
ahead. The Wills rushed on. On
this stretch the party learned that
the .engine of the Wills was
modelled after the Hispano-Suiza
airplane motor. It was agreed
that the engine Of the car upheld
the reputation Of Hispano-Suiza-
Sixty-seven horsepower and eight
cylinders of perfect function swept
the Wills on to newer victories.
What a drive! What a motorI The
vibration Of the car was noticeably
marked with ease. When the car
raced at swift speed. the motor
failed to shake its occupants. This
feat in itself was remarkable. the
party agreed. Numerous motors. II
was thought, have a pronounced vi
bration of the "shimmy" type when
racing over the highway under
seventy-five miles an hour.
Makes Worthy Record.
Eleven seconds to reach fifty
miles an houri Twenty-Five seconds
to make seventy miles an hour!
What an enviable record for the
Wills. Motorists will agree that
such a feat for the Wills claims at
tention in the automobile world.
The car rushed through Accotink.
They were fourteen and five-tenths
miles from Washington. No lethar-
gle traffic slowed its way over
crowded streets. 1t was such a re-
lief. the party declared. to drive
through a sleepy little town after
experiencing the traffic Headache"
of Washington.
Just before reaching Oecoquan. a
colony where washington's naughty
sojourn, a long iron bridge was
crossed. The State of Virginia is
backward in road improvements,
bridge structures and road marke ers
the party thought. This particular
bridge was shabby and its structure
boasted of little modernity.
Waters, who operated the car to
Fredericksburg. drove after the
typical manner of an expert. The
same can be said of Hartman, who
drove the car homeward 1t was In

In every city there are certain In

cinating to the average high school
pupil, studying chemistry or physics.
A systematic inspection Of each
city's industrial plants would not
only make the students better ac-
quainted with their city's industries.
but would also show the practical
application of the theories they
study. and in this way ix them in
their impressionable minds.
For instance, how the science Of
the adaptation and use of metals
has been applied in the fullest de-
gree to the perfection of the motor
car was explained in considerable
detail to members Of the senior
chemistry class. Of Northwestern
High School, Detroit. when they
visited the laboratories OF the Hupp
Motor Car Corporation In Detroit
recently.
The students who arAmaking a
study of practical work in the lab

Hupp Motor Car Corporation as be-
ing representative of all that is
foremost in that department of au-
tomobile manufacturing.
Routine work in the laboratory
was delayed somewhat on the day

PUSH BALL, LATEST
GAME FOR MOTOR
WITH STRONG BODY
Six Cars Make Up Oppos-
ing Teams in Thrill
ing Contest.

~Push ball" with six Buick cars
making up the opposing teams.
may well be imagined TO furnish
more thrills to the minute than
polo ever could. II is about as
thrilling and exciting a pastime as
can be devised.
The cars used in the game are
four-cylinder Bucks with wind
shields and tops removed. Three
cars fly white pennants and three
fly pennants Of black and white.
The giant push ball Is placed In
the center of the field. The six
cars are lined up at one side OF
the field. the men at the other. Al
a signal the men make a dash for
their cars, get them under way
and begin the battle. II is an ex-
citing one. As the inflated bag
is showed to and fro between the
gos1 posts the alert drivers must
know how to steer small" how
to twist and turn like coursing
hounds, how to stop in a hands
breadth and how to change direc-
tion instantly. There is enough
danger in the sport to endear Il to
the average American. though with
Buick cars, flexible, easily con-
troIIed and fitted with reliable
brakes the danger is more ap-
parent than real.
Practically the same rules as
those governing horse polo are
folIowedl Up to date, they have
not burst the push ball open, but
the strain on IL must be terrible,
with six powerful cars pushing IL,
three in one direction and three
in another.

the center for civil war story tellers.
The party had just entered this
town when two young men ap-
preached the car and in true Vir-
ginian hospitality offered to direct
an investigation of the grounds.
These two young men did not know
that the civil war was at close.
Their entire lives. the party no.
ticed. was wrapt in the sanguinarN
tale of the North and the South.
They talked and the party listened.
No historians could depict the tales
they told. Their fathers. their un-
cles. their grandfathers and their
cousins were in the civil war. They
had handed down them the true
version of the war. 1t was inter-
ssting. Their stories caught and
held the party.
and Char les streets there stood the
home of Mary Washington. the
mother of George Washington. 1t
was built in the year 1772. The
grandeur of the Wills stood in
marked contrast with this ancient
dwelling. The car suggested all
that is brimful Of the latest in
A merican ingenuity. while the
house spoke of a past day when
horses were the only means of
transportation.
Then the party inspected the
cemetery of Fredericksburg. On
one stone the date of 1854 caught
the attention of the party. This
was before the time of Columbus.
The party was perplexed. 1884?
Well. maybe Columbus did not dis
cover this country after all But
the party thought better of that.
Anyway. this country was discov-
cred and we are all happy, the
party thought. Why ra'se a new
fuss over the discoverer of
America.
Fredericksburg. you will recall,
was the boyhood home of George
Washington, who went to school
there and was later made a Ma
son in the local lodge. This town
also claims John Paul Jones as one
of its past citizens. Matthew Fon-
taine Maury. pathfinder of the
seas, whose genius made possible
the laying Of the Atlantic cable.
also resided in this town.
The tourists were in a town of
past great men. They inspected
each spot of interest where trod
many of the nations greatest men.
1t was interesting, this tour. For
while they lived in the past.

All this was pleasant retrospec-

Then the trip homeward came.

MASTERED AIR CURRENTS

Drifting for miles in free bal
loon might seem to offer little pros.
pect for a landing again on your
own doorstep. But an accommo-
dating air current and a little head
work turned this trick for Julius P.
Smith Of the army air service at
Langley field, Virginia. His expe-
rience is unique in lighter-than-air
work. Carried off in one direction
by the wind, the aeronaut assembled
until he struck a calm. Figuring
that the calm was caused by two
strong air currents moving in oppo-
site directions, he threw out ballast,
rose above the calm, caught the cur
rent moving swiftly in the direction
from which he had come.
After riding at his pleasure in that
direction he descended and caught
the first current again and returned
to the exact spot on the field from
which he had arisen.

REFORM THAT CAME SLOWLY
mueh-Needed Change to Standard
Time System Only Brought About
With Much Difficulty.

Railroads of this country had
about seventy standard times back
IN 1870. BY 1880 the number was
reduced to SO, yet these interested
and interlocked each other and were
an abomination and nuisance, gov
erned by no principle which would
enable a person familiar with one
locality to judge them in another.
When the present standard time
system was put into effect Novem-
Der Is, 1883, not only did the 49,
600 miles of railroad lines have to
be brought into uniformity, but all
the many communities had to be
persuaded to change their clocks.
1t was recognized that this inn
proved condition required a time
that would be both uniform and
accurate and recourse was hac 90

at Washington. Standard clocks
kept in conformity with this trans
mitted time were placed at division
headquarters, but an allowance of
five minutes had to be made for the
variations in individual watches.
This regulation was later done away
with and rigid inspection Of
watches was started; but these
changes were not accomplished
without much friction.
