your car; and for some reason,
which science has yet been unable
to discover, knocking takes place
when this compression ratio
reaches certain point.
Ethyl takes out the knock.
The result is more pep, more
revolutions per minute.

ing to information quoted in an
article by Norman S. Hall in this
weeks Liberty. "At that time"
Hall explains, Green was serving
soda water and ice cream, but
always separately.
Having obtained a permit to
dispense these delicacies at an ex.
position conducted by the Franklin
Institute of Philadelphia" the
writer continues, ''he looked about
for some novelty to attract
patrons to his booth. Why not
thought he, mix the ice cream
with the charged water and
flavoring?'
He did, and ice-cream soda, the
American national drink was

and shortly thereafter Fred San
ders, of Detroit, adopted the prac-
tice, advertising it widely, and is
credited with having done even
more than Mr.. Green to establish
