Enthusiasm of Fifth Avenue

Fifth avenue the world’s most critical street expetrienced a new and happy sensation at the annual automobile ‘salon’ held at the Hotel Commodore New York. Color was the keynote of the exhibits by builders of fine motor coach work., Twelve bodies produced by America’s foremost designers and exhibited on the Lincoln chasais attracted especially keen interest because of the fact that the colorings and color combinations of rare birds were duplicated. The enthusiasm of Fifth Avenue was reflected in the newspapers of the city. The New York Times commenting on the salon said: “A striking exhibit in' respective colors is that of the Lincoln cars. The rich color combinations have been adopted from the plumage of rare American and tropical birds.” The: New York Sum was equally enthusiastic saying: , “The sensational feature of this salon i sthe brilliant color effects found in the many. care exhibited. This {8 particularly so in the case of the group of twelve Lincolns each of which has been painted in strikin'g and contrasting colors of a bird selected for its beautiful plumage. The idea underlying thig method of color selection {8 novel and the effects secured are almost beyond description.”

Chrysler Six Motor Car. The Chrysler Six motor can be proved to excell in efficiency any automobile motor ever built. _ ’ That's a broad statement-—but here is the proof. _ The new Chysler Six motor has a 3%” bore and 3%"” stroke. - Now just stop to consider what this motor does— Under brake test it develops 68 horse power. It gives maximum speed capacity of over 70 miles per hour. These are provable results, so you may check them if you thing I exaggerate in my enthusiasm. . - And you know motors well enough to appreciate .that those two facts alone prove the Chrysler the best motor ever bulilt. ; But they are just a start: : That motor will take you from 5 to 28 miles per hour ir 7 seconds. So you Bsee it is more than a wonderful motor it has lugging power and acceleration to meet even the most extraordinary requirements. | And best of all it gives in combina-{ tion with such tremendous performance very often an average of 20 miles per gallon of gas. Now, please get this point— There are motors that show as much horse power; some that develop even greater speed a few that equal Chryslr acceleration, and m«ybe there is a six that gives equal gas economyl But—did you ever hear of any other mrotor that combines all thosa abilitiea? Thers isn’t another car at any price or of any size that even dares claim

them-—llet alone one able to prove them. : : - ‘ The answer to these results is in Chrysler engineering. I can’t show you, unless you are a mechanical engineer all of Chrysler’s scientific superiorities-—but results count and I can show you a combination of results that no other car on earth can even approach. Right now, you are probably thinking, “If Chrysler can do this others certainly can.” That is a reasonable thought but this is the fact. Walter Chrysler spent several years while he was actively the head of some of the biggest companies in the country seeking out the best engineer ing brains in the motor car industry. - Then he worked with them 3 years in overcoming the things which had always been wrong with other cars.} Those men had an absolutely free hand. They had all past experiefce to draw upon and years of other people’s mistakes to guide them. That’s how they engineered into the Chrysler old and tried scientific principles developed in a new engineering way.

The Chrysler car is sold in Ligonier by Ben Glaser. : Spots on the Sun I a spot of the sun is as large a 8 27,000 miles {n dlameter it can be seen without a telescope as a very minute black speck. Occasfonally spots are even larger than this, and 80,000 miles s a size not unknown. The largest sun spot on record was observed In 1838: it was nearly 150, - 000 miles in breadth and covered about 185 of the whole surface of the sun. Happy Endings Win Patrons of motion pictures in Aus tralia greatly prefer American films to the home product. The happy ending seems to get the money all the world around. Though the unhappy ending may be logical and artistic, ‘most human beings seeking In places of amusement a refuge from thq barsh realitles of every day do not care for them,

Salt Injures Soil The bureau of solls says that the applcation of rock salt upon driveway will Injure the soil for a radius of about three feet. If the roots of a Relghbor’s trees or ghrubs extend unmder the driveway, rock salt will be poison to them.

THE LIGONIER BANNER, LIGONIER, INDIANA.

Exide Radio Power Unit, Announcement was made a. short time ago by the Electric Storage Battery Company of a new product that would prove of exceptional interest to radio fans. It was described as the Exide Radio Power Unit—‘“the battery that is always charged” It was not until today however that a representative of this paper had an opportunity to inspect the new device which is on exhibition in the Blazed ‘Trail Garage the local Exide Dealer. :

The exide Radio Power Unit should provide just the source of filament current that thousands of fan's are clamoring for—a device that gives one all the advantages of the storage battery with practically no care or attention. It consists of a metal container very attractively finished in a rich mahogany color. With"in it, is a compact Exide Battery spe‘cially designed for the purpose, and a charging device directly connected to the battery. A length of wire running from the end of the unit is fitted with a plug which is intended to be screwed into any lamp socket or floor receptacle and kept connected at all times. On the end of the Power Unit are two binding posts marked “A” Battery Plus and “A Battery Minus’’ To these posts are fastened the “A” plus and minus connections of the ardio set. Just above these binding posts is ¢ small switch which is thrown uap or down according to whether the radio. set is in use or nbt. v | After antennae and ground or loop counections are made, and after the “B” batteries have been connected the set is ready for operation. | - The above mentioned switch on the end of the Power Unit is thrown up.‘l the. rheostats are turned on and the{ set is tuned in the usual 'manner;i

When one has finished listeng-in the rheostats are turned off and the switch on the end of the Power Unit is thrown down. This automatically places the battery on charge. Noting the small size of the battery contained in the Radio Power Unit, Mr. Thomas was asked whether it had sufficient: capacity ° for superheterodynes or other sets usiny a large number of tubes. It was explained that the battery had ample capacity to take care of any set regardless of the number of tubes that. were used. At the same time it was made clear that the battery could not be overcharged even though the set were not used for quite a time. This. it was explained is due to the fact that the current is fed at what is known as a trickle charge. It is a principle well understood by battery men and has been used for some time particularly in the charging of railway signal batteries. _ It is apparent that the Exide Radio Power Unit is a wonderful convenience inasmuch as it needs practically no care during its life. There are no moving parts to wear or get out of order and the only maintenance cost is the trifling amount of current used by the rectifying bulb. ‘ To the thousands who appreciate the superior (zu-alities of storage battery reception the new defise ig particularly welcome. It is made in two types one for sets using six volt tubes and the other for sets wusing four-volt tubes. > | In addition to the Radio Power Unit Blazed Trail Garage has the complete line of Exide “A” and “B” Storage Batteries in two four and six-volt sizes together with storage “B” batteries and rectifiers forj charging them. : ‘ e | Subscriber for the Banner.

Yet, with all the super-power necessary for such speed and such swift pick-up, you can get 25 miles to the gallon.

Any one of these exceptional abilities would be sufficient evidence of value for any manufacturer except Chrysler: the three of them clinch the assurance of Chrysler Four’s transcendent quality and worth.

We are eager to afford you the opportunity of proving the superiority of this favored Four. We ask you to ride in the car—drive it — see and feel for yourself, its speed, its swift ‘response, its pliability of power, its smooth operation, and even more particularly, its riding steadiness and comfort. Then, we believe, you will inevitably share in the enthusiasm of its tens of thousands of owners. '
