STOP THIEVES FROM
STEALINGYOUR CAR
Man Suggests Putting Name
and Serial Number in Wind- i
shield; Could Not
Change This. ,
According to Secretary C. (.'. K'il
liur jof the Toledo Automobile club,
all of the makers, sellers and buyers
of motor cars, together with the
country's chemists ami sellers of
windshield glass, must combine
against the auto thief if motor car
thievery is to be abolished.
At the American Automobile asso
ciation annual' meeting Mr. Kilbury
addressed the assemblage on the ever
live and hard-to-be-met problem of
stamping out car thievery and pre
sented a suggestion that calls for nation-wide
co-operation on the part
of every person interested in elim
inating the car thief.
Mr. Kilbury's idea is to place, by
chemical process, the serial number of
the car and the name of the owner's
home town upon the windshield
and that each owner should
a card hearing Ins name, al
and the serial number of his'

The Elephant Test
"John" and "Jim," two of the larg
fst Kingling elephants, failed to ob
serve the proverbial "whoa" the other
day when, they were hitched to a
35xSM Goodrich Brown tube. 'They
might have had visions of dragging
:ach other arpund the Ringling'circus
lot-in Akron, but if they did, they
oon proved the contrary, for when
they had stretched the tube almost
Iwenty-four feet the chains by which
it was coupled to their harness cut
:he tough rubber until the tube 'Met
?o." Jim heaved a painful grunt as the
end of the tube containing the valve
stem struck him. This was the first
stretch.
Overfilling Battery as
Bad as Not Filling at All
"Overfilling your battery with
water is as bad as not filling it at
all," says Mr. Koscngren. the Willard
expert. "When the cells are too full,
rough riding or the rapid charging of
the battery which comes from long
sustained or rapid driving, forces the
electrolyte to overflow and run into
the bottom of the battery box. And
it is only a short time before the acid
electrolyte has eaten out the bottom
of the box."
In filling the battery, cover the top
of the plates with about onehalf inch
of water. More than this is unneces
sary. Export of Canadian

A BIG TOURING CAR FOR FIVE PEOPLE
25.5 Miles
Per Gal. of Gas
234 stock piodel Saxon "Sixes" travel
70,200 miles July 18 and set grand
' average of 25.5 miles per gal. of gas.
Our Entry Averaged 23 5-10 Miles Per Pal.
To give a national demonstration of the
remarkable gasoline economy of Saxon
"Six," 234 Saxan dealers joined in a
300-mile drive; July 18. A grand average
of 25.5 miles per gallon of gasoline was
registered for the 70,200 miles of travel.
Consider that this run took place in 234
different parts of the country, under
234 different sets of conditions, over
234 different kinds of roads.
Consider that these 234 cars were stock
model Saxon "Sixes", not "tuned up"
special cars, not cars with "doped" gaso
line. That proves that this 25.5 miles per gal
lon of gasoline Is , the ordinary, the
average performance of 234 Saxon
"Sixes taken right ouj of stock.
And it proves, as nothing else would
prove, the gasoline economy your
-Saxon "Six" will give you. No other car
in its class can match this record.
Furthermore, these 234 Saxon "Sixes"
averaged 175 miles per quart of oil.
And not a single instance of mechanical
trouble occurred throughout the entire
70,200 miles.
.Ther is the proof that Saxon "Six" is
your kind of a car. Price, f. o. b. De

'"Watch Your Autos,"
The Elephants Are Coming
"Watch your auto, the circus is
coming," is the caution given out by
Chief of Pobce Dunn. "It used to
be that circuses had shooters who
wouul tell spectators to watch their
horses, the elephants are coming,"
but now things are different.
The chief said that after every cir
cus a large .number of persons re
ported the loss of their cars.
There will be an extra detail of
police and plain clothes men who will
circulate among the crowd at the cir

Flower Flag at Hanscom
Park is Torn Up by Roots
v Commissioner Hummel is consider
ably exercised over the work of some
vandal in Hanscom park who tore
out the stars in the large waving or
namental flower bed which resem
bled a.i American flag.
"The man or persons who dese
crated the flag should be given life,"
the commissioi er stated.
Beside uprooting the stars, a num
ber of the stripes were spoiled by the
flowers being torn out by the roots.
The ornamental flower flag was one
of the beauty spots at the park.
Built on absolutely original lines, a
motor sled has been tried out in the
snows of Michigan and found to be
an unqualified success inspite of its
startling appearance, says C. W.
Francis of the C. W. Francis Truck
company, Instead of being propelled
by some type of wheel with chain or
roughened surface to grip the ice and
snow, this vehicle is driven by four
motor-operated drums or cylinders,
which taper at the front and are
equipped with a number of spiral
flanges. These cylinders revolve, but
their course is at right angles to the
direcfion taken by the sled, and the
screW-like action of the spiral run
ners sends the machine forward with
remarkable speed and tractive power.
Mixed Flour,Food to .
Be Called "Liberty Bread"
Washington, July 28. Liberty
bread is the term to be encouraged
by the food administration as ap
plied to substitutes for wheat flour
rather than the phrase "war bread"
used in other warring countries.
"The name 'war bread' gives the
impression that there is something in
ferior about the breads made of sub
stitutes for wheat," says an announce
ment. The fact is that breads made
from wheat substitutes are healthful,
and just as tasty as those made from
wheat."
Use of substitutes will be encour
aged at the food training camps to be
held in connection with fairs and ex
positions in the near future.
