a short treatment of any medicine
would so completely relieve my

Il had been affected mostly across

New Chevrolet Cars Given
T Enthusiastic Reception
Main Street Garage Has Line of
all Models on Floor-Longer
Wheel Base

Wildfire enthusiasm kindled
throughout the country last week
when the new Chevrolet line for
1928 went on display took partic-
ular account of the many mechan-
ical innovations embodied in the
new car.
Thousands who viewed the new,
models noted that the wheelbase
was increased and bodies made
roomier and more beautiful, also
that the mechanical features had
been developed to a measure here
tofore unknown in the low price
class.
Outstanding developments in
the engine and chassis that re-
ceived widespread endorsement
were the increased speed and pow
er OF the new car, easier steering,
four wheel brakes of new design,
shocks absorber springs marking
an advanced trend toward riding
comfort. and smoother engine per-
formance.
The last mentioned feature was
achieved by the use of constant
clearance alloy ''invar strut" pis-
tons which make for smoother.
more efficient motor performance.
Further contributions toward this
We're gained by raising the
compression ratio and by stepping
up the valve lifts. Through these
changes maximum power is de-
veloped.
Other changes in the engine are
the addition of breathing system
to eliminate the annoyance of en-
CINE fumes; a new two-port ex-
haust, and silencing engine en-
closure.
The four-wheel brakes are of
non-locking design-the product of
Chevrolet laboratories plus the
facilities of General Motors lab
oratories and proving grounds.
Front brakes are two-shoe unener-
g1zed Intervals, while the rear
brakes are the energized external,
self wrapping type. Front and
rear brakes have been proper.

ering logs and stumps of the last
generation, there would not be life
enough in the soil to sustain life in
the trunks and branches that grow
out of it.
"Humus" is what the mass of
dead but life giving material is
called and the story of humus was
the theme of DIR. Selman "A. Wake
man of the New Jersey agricul-
tural experiment station, who
spoke before the meeting of the
Geological Society of America
here.
The enriching processes of for
est soils are different from those
of garden and field soils. DIR.
Wakeman said. In the latter, the
bacteria largely attend to the task
of returning dead thing to the dust
whence they came, but in the for
est the work is done primarily by
the fungi. Bacteria play a small
part, and animals incects, MILL
peds, worms and microscopic
forms-also come in for their
share. The dark world of the hu-
mus beneath our feet is really a
seething complex of life.
The great task of the fungi is
to break down the compounds of
the dead leaveu and wood, indiges-
tible to the higher plants in their
present form, and render them
again available for use. Part of
the task, the resimplifcation of the
heterogeneous compounds, seems to
be relatively easy of accomplish
ment, and has been fairly well un-
derstood for a long time.
But the ret, the digestion of the
celluloses and other allied carbo-
hydrate compounds, is more COM
plicated business. 1t is not only
more difficult for the fungi to &C
complish-sometimes a log will lie
for centuries, defying complete de-
cay-but it has been more difficult
for tcientists to understand. 1t is
to the understanding of this latter
group of processes that DR.. Wake
man has dedicated his own special
research.

AMERICAN LEGION
Organize Legion for
Emergencies, is Aim

The Uegion's national emer-
gency program adopted by state
leaders on recommendation of Ma
tional Commander Edward E.
Spafford, will organize 1000 To-
cal Legion posts (including 500
in Minnesota) to promptly meet
possible disasters, rescuing, pro-
tecting and hospitalizing the in
jured, replenishing essential sup
plies, guarding property from van
dals, eliminating interference with
rescue work by morbid slghtseers,
etc.
Because 1927 catastrophes found
the Legion in the forefront in work
of this type, it's reputation for eff
ficient leadership in time of dis
aster is established, ana Com
mander Spafford, whose national
emergency plan divides America
into five districts, minnesota being
under National Vice Commander
j. M. Henry of Winona ;long
with the Dakotas, Michigan, Mon
tana, Wisconsin, Ohio, Indiana, IL
linois, Iowa and Kentucky.
Under District Commander Hen
ry will be each department COM
mander who in turn organizes a
state emergency staff, dividing his
territory into geographical and
transportation areas each with an
area mobilization officer, who will
cooperate with his chief in listing
post mobilization officers physi-
clans, hospitals, available automo-
biles, railroads, rivers, docks, food,
clothing, explosives, road maps,
etc. Emergency relief plans will
be sketched for each locality, so
that police, state and federal au-
thorities will be available.
Actual rescue work Immediately
following a catastrophe will be
started by the local post; but
without delay, surrounding Legion
aires will rush to the scene to aid
buddies, control sightseers, prevent
property destruction, do guard
duty, replenish supplies, etc. De-
tailed national emergency plans
are being placed in the hands of
every Legion post commander, the
national commander announces.

toned to prevent side drag or pull
Each brake has an individual ad-
justment at the wheels, while
"stops" have been provided to
make the adjustment procea1 es-
'pecially easy. Easy initial pedal
application throws the front
brakes into action. Further appli.
cation throws front brakes harder
into action and also brings the rear
brakes into full play, so that it is
poIible to slide the rear wheels
on dry pavement by using full
pressure but not the front wheels.
The effect of this, according to
Chevrolet engineers is to get uni
form wear on the brake lining.
The springs also are of extraor
binary interest. Realizing that all
uncomfortable spring action is the
result of rebound after striking a
bump, Chevrolet engineers SCI
about to increase the friction of
the springs and thus check the re-
bound.
This end was achieved by equip
ping the springs with special re-
bound checks. Two checks are on
each spring half way between the
center spring shackle and the
spring end. These rebound checks
are inverted bow shaped steel
leaves assembled under high pres
sure againet the top of the spring
leaf, the ends pressing against the
top of the leaf, increasing the re-
sistance.
So much has the spring friction
been increased by this new device
that the car is said to ride SO per
cent better than with old type
springs. The rebound checks also
offer greater resistance to bumps,
Greater ease of steering was
made possible by adopting a ball
bearing worm and gear steering
mechanism, including ball bearings
in the steering knuckles, and by
increasing the steering ratio from
8. to 9.5 to 1. The four inch in
crease in wheelbase contributes
greatly to the riding quality OF
the car, with less pitching and
better road holding ability.
The front axle has been en-.
larged and strengthened to accom-
oiate the new brake attachment
A fan shroud has been added fol
more efficient cooling, and host
of other details combine to make
the Chevrolet for 1928 the best
performing, most efficient and de-
pendable mechanical unit ever built
by the company.
