CHAPTER XVIII
The TRANSMISSION

Strange thoughts ran through
John Daring's mind as he waited
in the ante room to the hospital
laboratory.
Was it to be given him to redeem
his wife by the gift of his own
blood? He had not seen her yet but
the serious faces Of the doctors and
nurses told him that joys fear was
well founded. She had gone in to
her mothers bedside leaving him
here to wait the finding of the speci.
men of blood they had taken from
his arm.
While he sat waiting young DR..
Mcdonald came by.
Are you Mr.. Daring?" he asked
"Your wife has very good chance
of living if we can give her the
TRANSMISSION at once" said the doctor
Il hope your specimen is the right
type. Otherwise l shall be obligei
to buy quart of blood from one oil
the donors on our regular lists"
Buy a quart of blood?" there was
surprise and some horror in Johr
Daring's tone
1T is often difficult in an emer
gency like this to find some mem

doctors and nurses and their types
We can call on them when we neet

eye would not dare give of my
blood to her if am not the right
type?" he asked.
DR.. Mcdonald shook his head. at
would be fatal" he said. There are
four types of blood" he explained.
ITO introduce any but the same type
would cause the death of the patient.
AS it is. the system kills off the
strange blood as soon as new blood
can be manufactured by the sick per-
son. Here comes the report"
Both men rose to await the word
of a white clad laboratory technician
who came toward them holding a
test tube and a report card.
Mr.. Daring is of the same type
as the patient, Mrs. Martin said
the girl.
Joys father did not notice the
strange name by which his wife had
been called and i)r. Mcdonald felt
relieved. He wanted nothing now to
interfere with the success of his at
tempt to save this woman's life.
John Daring followed the doctor
down long corridor and into a bare
surgery. Here he removed his coat
and was given a surgical gown to
wear. Presently wheeled stretcher
entered the room. BY it's side walked
Joyce. Under it's white sheet lay
Agnes Daring.
At a gesture from his daughter
John Daring moved to his wife's
side.
Her white wan face looked like
death. q Her eyes were closed under
their wax-like lids. She was barely
breathing. He touched her hand and
she opened her eyes and looked at
him, family, like a puzzled child.
DR.. Mcdonald motioned him back.
Don't disturb her." he said gently.
>"She is only partially conscious
now"
He was pulling rubber gloves on
over immaculate scrubbed hands. A
nurse barred John Daring's arm and
sponged a spot above the elbow with
alcohol.
Now DR.. Mcdonald was standing
over him. joys face Wavered before

NEW FACTORY FOR
DODGE COMPLETED
Higher Priced Car to Be
Built in Structure.

The immense new factory in
which Dodge Brothers new line of
higher-priced motor cars will be built
is now completed and installation of
the machinery is being rushed, ac-
cording to a report received this
week by f. L. Sanford, local Dodge
dealer.
One of the most modern. in the
automobile industry and said to be
the longest in the world used for
motor car production, the building is
a one-story structure planned on the
latest principles of factory construc-
ton for maximum efficiency in man
ufacturlng and assembling opera
tions. The new building adds over
100000 square feet of floor space to
the large manufacturing facilities of
the plant.
Two lines OF railroad track enter
the factory at one end and extend al
most its entire length, accommodate
ing seventy standard freight cars at
one time. Wide concrete loading
platforms dJ lllS ISNSl VI Liz tdl
floors facilitate quick unloading of
materials and loading of the new
motor cars as soon as they have
passed the final test.
A one-mile concrete test track
with a roadway eighteen feet wide
and turns banked for safe speed of
forty miles per hour on the outer
outer edge, is along the side of the
building.

1926 AUTO TAXES
NEAR 100000
Motor Car Registration Ex-
Ceeded 1925.

More than S75O,OOO,OO was paid
out by American motorists in the
form Of Federal, State and municipal
taxes last year, reports the Depart
ment of Agriculture. showing an in
crease Of $S9,OOO,OOO over total of
taxes paid in 1925.
The total motor vehicle regis
tration' in 1926 was 22,001, 1888
vehicles which included 19,237,171
passenger cars. These figures show
an increase of more than 10 per
cent over registrations.
Included in the total taxes paid
are $2SS,2S2,352 in receipts from
registration fees, licenses and other
State annual taxes. Gasoline taxes
brought in $1S7, 603,231, and Federal
excise taxes on passenger cars and
trucks vehicles for hire and on parts,
tires and accessories were estimated
at S155, 100000.
Most Of the money derived from
this source is put back into public

Will Be Awarded Driver Who
Keeps Up 60-MiIe Pace
"a Hours at Speedway.

The Stephens trophy. loving cup
donated by Samuel Stephens of
Rome. y. Y, has been accepted by
the indianapolis Speedway Associ-
alton and put up for competition.
The trophy is to become the prop
erty of the first manufactures whose
| stock automobile, as sold to the pub
| lie, completes a twentyfour-hour
run on the local speedway at an
average of more than sixty miles
an hour, and thereby covers a dis
lance Of at least lao miles or SIS
laps of the track during the twenty
four-hour period.
Each test shall be held under the
direct supervision of a board of
three engineers, members Of the So
ciety of Automotive Engineers, to be
selected by the indianapolis Motor
Speedway, who will be permitted to
make any examination of any de-
tail of the stock carr entered" says
the official announcement.
"All cars entered must be of stock
chassis, of which the manufacturer
has made at least 1000 similar cars,
and equipped with a standard closed
body of which at least ten have been
sold at regular stock prices on the
market.
Each car must have standard
valve tappet clearance used on reg
ular factory output, with stock PTS
tons and piston clearance.
Fuels used on the test will be
standard gasoline purchased by the
technical board for the test and
every other precaution will be taken
to insure the fact that the cars en-
tered for the tests are absolutely of
stock similar to those for sale to the
public.
Manufacturers wishing to make
the tests shall notify the Ipdianapo-
lis Motor Speedway at least ten days
before the date desired for the test,
depositing the entrance fee cover
ing costs Of the actual test, and win
ners of the trophy are required to
deposit a bond covering the time
they hold the trophy. After the
trophy is won by any manufacturer.
it may be transferred to any other
manufacturer establishing new
record for the distance during the
24-hour period.
The Z trials when held auto
matteally will come under the
sanction of the American Automobile
Association which will work in CO.
operation with the Society of Auto
motive Engineers. A number of en-
traes' have beer received and will be
announced at an early date. Tests

FALCON KNIGHT
MAKES DEBUT
ON AUTO ROW
New Sleeve Valve Motor In
terestS Trade at Initial
Showing.

The new six-cylindered Knight
motored car, the Falcon-Knight, is
being presented to the local public
this week by Murphy Motor Com
pany, Inc, 4S6 N. Capitol Ave. This
new six is the first Knight-motored
engine to be built in the $1,000 class,
made possible by concentration upon
quantity production Of an engine of
the knight sleeve valve type. Sales
organization headquarters and gen.
eral executive offices are in Detroit,
while the manufacturing plant is at
Elyria, Ohio.
Initial production of the Falcon
Knight shows three body types,
four-door sedan, twodoor sedan
and a roadster, all marked by a, low
swung appearance, accentuateh by
the length of the hood and the low
swinging Of the body on the frame.
The motor develops 45-horsepower
at it's point of maximum efficiency,
and the crankshaft is suspended in
seven bearings following the most
advanced engineering practice in
this type of construction. Lubrica-
ton is by a full pressure force feed
system, the oil being automatically
controlled in volume to correspond
with the requirements of the motor
at varying speeds.
The enclosed medols will reach
sixty miles an hour at top speed and
will accelerate from five to twenty
five in eight seconds. The turning
radius is forty feet, permitting the
car to turn in narrow streets. The
power "build-up" in the motor at
normal engine speeds is rapid, due
partly to the high compression ratio
in the motor, which is stated as be-
ing 25 per cent greater than that of
the average motor of the siX-cylinder
tVpe.
