His words are truer and sink in deeper than she thinks. | When Letty arrives at her home she finds her cousin as lovable as ever, but his wife, a native Westerner is jealous of this pretty girl from ‘Virginia.

If the enâ€" gine does not go the car is quite useâ€" less. : Consequently, it i-w&:pomnt to select a car, equipped with an efâ€" ficient motor,. s oapd. id fWt of forms ranging from engine with four cylinders in a line to the twelve cylinders which is V shaped arrangement with six cylinders on each side of the V. Between these two extremes there is the engine with six cylinders in a line, the :::B cylinder with blocks of four placed in the V shaped and eight: eylinders in a straight line. Fam fls It is because of the smoother run= ning and great figxibility of ar enâ€" gine with a large number of cylinâ€" ders that pleasure cars employ no less than a fourâ€"cylinder engine. Because of the increasing popularity of the sixâ€"cylinder type of engine it appears that this type may be destined to be: the most | desirable in the future,: However, one can never tell what the inventive genius of this industry will produce. Those engines with six cy+â€" linders or more are usually, though ‘not always, more powerful than the fourâ€"cylinder machines. ts equipâ€" ped with the greater num} of cylinâ€" ders are easier to drive, ‘t’bnte less and provide a maximum comfort for long tours. . _ __g[ 8 ‘Four Cylinder Motor The fourâ€"cylinder engine, however, is comparatively simple. | It has. conâ€" siderable power, sufficient to take a car over any hill. . It is a good car for driving about town and for short yuns, Because the wheel base is usuâ€" ally short compared to (ars with enâ€" gines of more eylinders |it makes a particularly good car 4« ; driving in ‘congested traffic. H_ Mela 1 ds â€" hn ie teahs ie wotats As to the arrangement of the valves of an engine, some types hate both valves arranged on one side of the| eylinder, some have one in the top of the cylindér and one in the side, some have both valves in the top and a few have the inlet valve on side and the exhaust on the other, The arâ€" rangement of the valves has considâ€" erable to do with the iency of the engine, that is, the amount of power iwh.igh is extricated from the gasoline used. S t xmlp o o on Much of the heat generated by burning the gasoline is necessarily absorbed through the |water jacket which surrounds the cylinder. The engines with the valves in the head valve have a regular shaped combusâ€" tion chamber which reduces the water jacketed surface to a jinimum. Enâ€" gines with valves on he" gide of the eylinders have pockets that are‘offset from the cylinder proper which must be water jacketed. | nes with valves in the head mu employ more mechanism: for operat the: valves than those with the valyves in the side. Types of BA : The great majority of the engines ‘use valves of the ipet" type, L¢6. valves that are sha; like mushâ€" ‘t"ooms, are pushed open by a cam and are returned to their seat by a spring. The "Knight" engine does not use this type of valve but uses two movyâ€" \ able sleeves that fit imde of the cylinâ€" \ der and on the ins of which the piston. travels. ‘These ‘gleeves are opâ€"| erated by eccentrics, They have slots | An them that line up with the inlet| ‘ and exhaust ports at the proper times ‘to permit the inlet and outlet of the gas. These engines have the same efficiently shaped combustion chamâ€" ber as the "poppet" valved engines ‘i with overhead valves.. A large percentage of the automoâ€" bile motors are cooled by water the cylinders being gurrounded . by & jacket of water which absorbs the excess heat. The hot water is pumpâ€" ed to a radiator placed on the front ‘of a car wbich.rwl&el for the Rheat f Airâ€"Cooled Type 2y ‘â€" In the airâ€"cooled motor provision is made for bringing sufficient quantiâ€" ties of air directly into contact with the outside of mgmxn this o emakast y TIT To/R HIGHLAND PARK PRESS, HIGHLAND PARK, ILLINOIS way the excess heat is carried off diâ€" rectly-by‘tbe air.

The water cooling system has in the main proven very satisfactory under most cireumstances â€" and continues‘ to be most used. t t Every year finds a tendency toward standardization in automobile design.

OF RAVING SENATOR Public Averse to Harrlbon’s Atâ€" ~â€"_â€" tack on Dawes Under Circumstances The American public believes in fair play. It condemp$ unqualifiedly the hitting of a man when his hands are tied. This is exactly what was ‘done the other day in the senate when Pat Harrison of Mississippi, boy oraâ€" tor at the New York convention, took occasion to attack â€" Vice President lCh;rluiG. Dawes, a veteran of the World war who served while Basriu_in was safely ensconced in a seat in the senate or was spending his time in the wilds of Mississippl ty It is true that Harrison made his sp'eechinthoguheofuhummudil- sertation, but it is quite characterisâ€" tic of the distinguished, learned genâ€" tleman from: Mississippi to pursue just such tactics; so, if called to acâ€" count, he is in a position to take refâ€" uge in saying that his remarks were merely in a jocular vein, but, neverâ€" theless, in his speeches, and this is not the first one of this kind that Harâ€" rigon has delivered, there is an unâ€" dercurrent : of spite. Harrison has adopted these tactics in the senate beâ€" fore and, while he smiles when he deâ€" livers these bits of alleged wit and sarcasm, nevertheless there is appar> ent venom back of that grin. 4 | Whether or not one agrees with Viee Président Dawes in his desire wchanqthernlao!themm,m fact remains that the attack of Harâ€" rison was a. cowardly ‘one, for the rules of the senate do not permit the vice president to speak on the floor of the senate. \It was like tying a man in & chair and then‘ deliberately lt;iking ‘him across the face with a whip. â€" © kmonf those who complain of the nuisance of barking â€" dogs ‘are the burglar and bandit element. | A considerable number of people will be willing to clean up all their old bills now, provided someone will lend them the money. iectc k North Shore Gas Company Surplus Funds in J anuary January 1st has been termed as "National Pay Day" beâ€" cause more money changes handsâ€"more mortgages are. paid off, more notes fall due, more bonds maturé and more. interest is received on this day than on any other day of the entire year.
