the Atlantic to the Pr.clfic.
It meets a condition lonR known
to every engineer and mont motor car
wnero the rapid decline in the
gr.id- of gasoline.
It takes a low grade gas and makes
high power out of It by two rather
Ingenious dcvlco3 known ns n "hot
plnte" and a "ram's horn" manifold.
Aloo It overcomes In a marked
measure the trouble one often expe
riences In starting an engine on a
old day.
The Chalmers engine starts In a
Jiffy in sero weather r.nd runs in a
lew seconds with almost mldBUtumer
moothness.
"I have already had quit? a lew
f these current Chalmers contain
ing the great engine," said Ed Hary
of Lowry & Henry, local dealers, "and
the contentions made by the manu
lacturers are rather modest In com
parison with the wonderful resnlts I
bave observed.
"I understand there are more than
1,000 Chalmers containing this great
nglne now In service ( and I am also
informed that It was with thlB engine
that Joe Dawson made his famous
24-hmir record at Sheepsbead Bay,
when he traveled 1898 miles In 24
hours, which was farther and faster
in a day than man has ever travelled
on lnnd. nlr or nou.
To take a look at the great Chal
mers engine, you would be tempted
to believe it was Ju3t exactly like any
other enrine you ever lain eyes on
It is simple, compact, and looks like
the work of a master mina.
"However, in two little devices
both of which are visible to the eye,
lurks the great secret of the great
nitine.
"Everyone who knows r.nything
bout an engine knows that the main
problem Is to get the gaB In Just ex
actly the right point of vaporisation
In the combUBtlon chamber at the
moment of explosion. In my mind,
this Chalmers engine reaches very
oinHe to 100 nor cent nerfectlon in
this respect.
"After the gas leaves the carbure
tor It moves up to the throat of the
manifold where it hits the 'hot plate
at an e.nple. Is heated and "cracked
op' into very minute molecules, and
is then passed into the famous 'ram'n
horn 'manifold, which, by means of
its easy curves, or what the engi
neers call 'easy air bends' permits the
gas to pass on to the combustion
chamber without the sllghter.t handi
cap of any sort.
"In many engines of the present
day the Intake manifold is cast in the
lorm of a tunnel right in the engine
block. The Interior naturally Is
rough, which causes a clogging up
and condensation of gas before the
gas reaches the combustion chamber.
The result Is that a great deal of
raw gas passes the cylinders Into the
crank case, diluting the lubricating
Oil and sometimes causing a burned
bearing or two. But, of course, this
Is not nearly so Important as the
great wastage In the gas.
"The great Chalmers engine wastes

lightly. "He's got a gas mask on,
they salft. "That's why be looks so
funny, but when we see it his blood

Washington, D. C. The kissing
bug is abroad among the postmasters
of the land, and this strange insect
is responsible for fifteen official ca
reers being cot short during the last
two weeks.
A postmaster In a northern Ohio
county Is the latest victim, in an
unguarded moment he kissed his
pretty 18-year-old cousin, who was
employed as a clerk in the post office.
She ran home to her mother and
"peached" on the postmaster, who
straightway became involved in diffi
culties with Uncle Sam.
The Incident at once became the
subject of much official palaver. The
poBtofflce department sent out an m-
spector to Investigate, and he wrote
an elaborate report on the oscnlatory
incident. A vast amount of red tape
has been wound and unwound over
this affair during the last few days,
and Senator Fomerone's office be
came Interested to the extent of try
ing to save the postmaster's official
scalp.
The senator's secretary was ad
vised today, however, that the kiss
ing postmaster will be dismissed from
the service. First Assistant Post
master General John C. Koons ad
mitted that the punishment may
seem a little harsh.
"If this were the only case of the
kind we might deal with the post
master more gently," he said, "but
these things come in waves. We
have had fifteen complaints of this
character during the last two weeks
and we are dismissing all of the post
masters. Any punishment short of
dismissal would leave a bad impres
sion in the community and bring the
postal service Into disrepute."
All of which means that kissing
postmasters should have a care.
