plan is not to have an old straw hat

President Coolidge does not rec

the Mayfiower, the country is rich
enough to let the President enjoy the

whatever he can wisely use.
AS regards spending, the wise
mans plan is to buy what he needs
when he needs it, remembering that
a good appearance is wise invest

In Japan, if yoh raise your hand to
a little child, frowning and threaten

that you pretend. No one there ever
strikes a child. That's one reason
why the japanese fight SO well, when
they do fight. The Japanese spirit
is not broken in childhood.

were there catching a few catfish.
Now it is boom town, thanks to S.
Davies Warfield, president of the Sea

"when YOU put dollar into a

turns good profit for the investor,
It enables a neighbor to get home

So c. Clinton James told the Y.
M. c. A. real estate class Tuesday
night. James is an attorney and
first vice president of the United
States League Of Local Building and
Loan Associations.
Total assets Of the building and
loan associations in the District OF
Columbia are about $40. 900. 900.
James said. This is far below the
record In several other cities Of
equal size.

James stressed the fact that this

added:

in developing. It is really a double
waste, for the excess speed is not
only unnecessary but is the cause
of dissipating most Of the power
used in carrying the car such a
short distance.
The momentum of the car after
1t has been set in motion is natural
ly not equal to the power developed
by the engine when conditions ara
normal. A car could easily acquire
sufficient momentum as when
coasting free down a long steep
hilD to carry it up another. hill at
a speed which its own engine could
not impart to it, but under ordinary
circumstances the engine is the
greatest power of the two and may
be said to precede momentum in
that the engine must set the car in
motion before the force Of its own
weight and speed can be considered.
Since conditions are seldom SO
ideal that the motorist has but to
release the brakes in order to start
the car rolling the engine must be
called into play to start the machine
from rest. Thus IT'S momentum
does not normally develop until It
starts going. In other words the
car owner is obliged to pay for all
the momentum which the engine
imparts to the car which means
that the better use he makes of the
momentum the less power he will
have to ask OF the engine and the
more gas he will save. !.
Free Momentum.
The free momentum which is i'm
parted to the car because of a
down grade can be used frequently
to advantage, but 1t is not such an
important factor in economy as the
motorist might think offhand. Il
Invariably happens that when such
free momentum would reach its
highest peak as when descending a
steep hill the driver is obliged TO
The Washington times., 1925-04-29

moderate it. If he is a careful
operator he will shift into second
and use his engine to retard the
cars speed. Thus he virtually uses
engine power to kill the excess
momentum and it is, therefore, not
so valuable to him under these con-
ditions.
1t is in normal driving, particu-
larly over level ground, where
momentum can be used as the
basis of real fuel economy. AS
soon as the driver has reached
speed, consistent with traffic condi-
lions, at which the car has enough
momentum to roll of its own accord
for some distance, he is in posi-
ton to turn this force to profit by
dispensing with the engine as much
as possible. This is not necessarily
a suggestion to coast at every OPP
portunity, but mainly hint to
spare the brakes.
There are times when the driver
is taken unawares and must stop
for his own protection, but IN the
majority of instances where the
brakes are used it is because the
driver is going too fast or misjudges
distances and traffic conditions.
The usual thing to do when aDouI
to stop at the curb Is to use the
engines power straight up to the
time the brakes, are applied IN

Quarter Million Mark Has
Been Passed

The quarter million mark was
reached in Ford production in Eng.
land on Friday, April II, when CT.
number $50. 900 left the final assem-
bly, line in the plant at Manchester
according to cablegram received
by Edsel B. Ford from the English
company.
This is a production record for
the automobile industry in England
and is. significant also from the fact
that cars manufactured in Man
chester are absorbed in the British
Isles.
All Ford cars made in England
are built OF approximately 80 per
cent British materials. Further, the
policy of the English company res
quires that British labor only be
employed. And in accordance with
this policy those parts not made
in the Manchester plant are fabri.
Gated by other English industrial
manufacturers. All cylinder blocks
and many other parts are cast and
nlachined in the plant at Cork, Ire

With the ordinary touring family
in this country, there is quite
likely to come up the problem of
carrying along baby. Taking
babies on automobile jaunts always
has been difficult. Holding a baby
on the lap grows a trifle tiresome
after the first thousand miles.
Baby Carriers Tidy.
Today, it is possible to buy baby
carriers OF ingenious design, which
makes it comfortable, not only for
the infant. but for mother and
other passengers as well. These
carriers are built to absorb the
iolts of travel over the roads, so
that the baby rides smoothly, re-
gardless of the rest of the car.
So energetic have the nlanufac-
turers been in devising luggage
carrying equipment, that it is no
longer a question Of piling up the
car with baggage and then fitting
in the human cargo. Every family
can find exectly what it needs for
any trip it may take, whether
over the week end or across the

of selecting among great number

CADILLAC TOUR

NOVEL
M. &. Ferguson Tells of Trip
of Party from is Years to
80, Over 10000 Miles.

A jolly novel Of travel adven-
lures from the Atlantic seaboard,
across the continent, to and about
the Hawaiian Islands and return is
contained in motor Camping on
Western Trails, a new book by
Melville F. Ferguson, managing
editor Of an Eastern newspaper.
The book relates the experiences
Of the authors own family group
of eight persons, ranging in age
from sixteen to eighty who, with
two Cadillac cars and a trailer,
spent an entire twelve months on
wheels, journeying westward out
through the national parks Of the
northwest to the Pacific coast,
down almost to the Mexican border
for the winter and homeward in
the spring on the southerly trail
$4,000 miles of motor car travel in
addition to carrying the complete
caravan 1000 miles across the
Pacific for a visit to Honolulu and
to kilauea, the active volcano of
the Island of Hawaii.
The story is unusual in that none
of the party were trained by eX-
perience for the journey.
The author, as he states, had
been looking at brick walls, the
asphalt pavement, the hard narrow
canyons Of cut stone, for forty-eight
years.
He took with him his wife, three
daughters, a mother nearing four
score, and parents.in law, who well
remembered civil war days-eight

tine that is carelessly called solid

stead of depending upon momentum
to bring the car up to the stopping
point. When the engine is USED
up until the last moment 1t means
that the brakes are used to neu-
tralize not only the engines power
but the momentum of the car. II
also means that the brakes have
double task to perform and that
the whole mechanism is strained
unnecessarily. Such unsystematic
stopping simply means waste of the
engines power, the power 1t ex-
pended in imparting momentum to
the car and brake lining-a triple
waste.
Fuel Waste Great.
When a driver deliberately uses
his engine to impart excess
momentum to the car which he
knows he cannot possibly use, the
waste OF fuel is exactly the same
as though he drove the car with
the brakes half on. Many drivers
will proceed along with traffic,
making the engine roar with power,
only to stop at the next corner
with enough momentum to drive
the car two city blocks with the
engine shut off. They waste such
momentum perhaps two dozen times
in the course of driving home from
business, foolishly believing that
they are saving time by speeding
up in between stops.
Under such conditions, about one,
fourth of the power they ask of
their engines is uncalled for.
Putting it still another way, one
might say that they are buying %
per cent more gasoline than they
used.
One automobile manufacturer has
calculated that a car should coast
about one-third of the distance it
travels. Considering the amount OF
fuel, power and momentum which
can be saved by better judgment in
driving and the rs per cent saving
in your gasoline bill may be con-
servative. ALI motorists need in
this connection is a little "momen-
tum" for the idea itself Once
started it will keep rolling until
all drivers appreciate the extent to
which they are now wasting this
power, which automatically develops
the moment a car is set in motion.
