: j. s. CARS
Chief Engineer Jack, of oIds
Co., Returns From Abroad
With Data on Trade.

The coming European market for
automobiles will call for a light six
cylinder car of small bore selling al
about $50 pounds sterling, accord
ing to r. K Jack, chief engineer of
the Olds Motor Works, Lansing,
Mich, who has just returned from
q two months tour of the continent
as a member of a party of General
Motors engineers. This type car, he
said, will meet the demands of the
middle class, which at present is de-
spairing of ever owning an automo-
bile having more than four cyl
tnders.
European countries tax automo-
biles according to horsepower, COM
puted on the basis of size of CYL
inder," said Jack. For that reason
q large bore and an tovereng1ned' car
carries tax which is practically
prohibitive to the greater number OF
potential automobile owners,
in foreign countries the head OF
the average family has to provide
for greater number of children by
far than is the case in the United
States. Add to this the fact that
8lI1C0 the Wal OuSAIACSS
have been generally bad, it can read
lily be seen that many in Europe
never expect to own a car.
AT this time several manufac-
turers are beginning to market a
car for about $50 pounds sterling;
and this is meeting with favor from
the middle classes. It will be the
big market of the future, especially
in England. The makers there, how
ever, can never hope to equal the
number of cars produced by the
American companies, due to the re-
stricted market.
while four-cylinder cars arc the
most popular today in foreign coun-
tries, the demand is swinging 10 the
six; and q car such rs the Oldsmo-
bile six, property equipped for ex-
port use, should meet with favor,
due to its small cylinder bore and
resultant low tax rate.

What the fabrication specialist
has to know in selecting an oil for
a particular engine is the approx
mate average working temperature.
usually around $50 degrees. It is
quite impossible merely to look at
two samples of oil and decide which
is the right body. Nobody can do
it unless it be a chemist so expert
enced that his eye alone will pre-
dict for him what will happen to
that oil when heated.
Crude oil is made up Of great
mixture of things, all having
family resemblance, but of all sorts
of different chemical sizes. Imag-
inc a heap of coal containing coal
dust, little Jumps, middle-s z d
Jumps and finally huge masses, and
you have a fairly clear picture of
a supply of crude oil. Now we
could take the coal heap and screen
it first through a very fine screen
which~would let only the dust pass.
Then we would have removed the
equivalent Of gasoline. Next very
slightly coarser screen would take

them viii stay In the still after the
boiling off process IL finished but
all kinds Of acids and other dele
ferrous matters come over with the
oils. Oil straight from the first
stage of separation from the crude
is a black and unattractive looking
liquid.
There are two main classes Of
crude oil, similar and yet charac.
teristically different in chemical
constitution. They are generally
known as the ''paraffin base and
the ''naphthenic base" crudes be-
cause one contains paraffin wax
and little or no solid naphthas or
asphalts, while the other contains
no wax; but does contain solids OF
made from the paraffin crudes
there is usually some wax In sOlu..
ton as It dissolves and IL not easy
to remove completely. In the oils
made from the other type Of crude
there should be no dissolved solids.
| The most important difference be-
tween the two types OF crude from
the motor oil producers viewpoint
is that they behave differently
when heated in successive stages.
A paraffin base crude when heated
can be readily split up into fuels
and light oils. If the process Is
stopped early there is left as a.
residue a thick heavy oil containing
variety of impurities dissolved IN
it. Further heating at higher tenn
peratures causes chemical change
and ordinarily would break the
heavy oil into fuel oils or even
gasolinee.
To make motor oils from paraffin
base crude the customary method
is to extract the light lubficating
oil and then to take the residue
without more heating, treat 1t 30
as to remove the impurities by
filtering or otherwise and then TO
! mix the resulting product with the
light oil in the different proportions
necessary to give motor oils OF the
various necessary bodies. The
residual heavy oil obtained by this
method has always g. deep emerald
green color and puts a sort Of
bloom on any mixture that is made
with it, SO an oil made in this way,
which is called compounded oil"
can always be recognized on sight.
From the paraffin crude there is
no commercial method Of getting
lubricating oils of middling con-
sistency except by mixing the
light oil obtained by 6istillation
with the heavy residual oil left
after distillation has ceased, but
this is not the case with the
napthenic or asphaltic crude. With
the latter the step by step boiling
off process will provide oils up to
the heaviest needed for automobile
engines without the addition Of
anything that has not thus been
boiled over. Such oils are called

Common Sense

The idea of postponing purchase Of good used car
until the spring is costly it is illogical You must
pay for the same in the spring than it
would cost to enjoy of it throughout the winter
Somebody has to pay for storage recondtioning in

UNUSED. If you wait until spring YOU pay.

A look of alarm spread itself over
Bream's face.

Sam opened the book very willingly.

Iuetly shot to pieces the spell which
had begun to fall on them at the be-
ginning of their conversation. Only
by reading poetry, it seemed to him,
could it be recovered. And when he
saw the passage at which the volume
had opened he realized that his luck
was in. Good old Tennyson He was
all right He had the stuff. You
could send him to hit in a pinch every
time with the comfortable knowledge
that he would not strike out.
He cleared his throat.

Let the sweet heavens endure,
Not close and darken above me

That there is one to love me. !"
This was absolutely topping. It was
like diving off springboard. He could
see the girl sitting with soft smile
on her face, her eyes. big and dreamy,
gazing out over the sunlit sea. He
laid down the book and took her hand.
