| “Penny” Not Official | ~ U. S. Coin Designation “Penny” is not the official designation of any coin minted by the United States. The application of “penny” to the cent, however, dates back to the beginning of our money system. Until after the Revolutionary war the Znglish penny circulated freely in this country. Although one-cent pieces had been previously coined by sevéral of the states, the word *“cent” did not appear officially in connection with a federal coin uatll 1786. August 8 of that year the Continental congress passed a law which preseribed “Cents: The highest copper piece, of which 100 shall be equal to the dunar.”' . October 16, 1786, it was ordained by congress, “That no foreign copper coin whatsoever shall after . the first day of September, 1787, be current within the United States of America.” This law removed the English penny - from circulation in this country, but the name “penny” was transferred to our cent in popular usage and it has tenaciously clung to it ever since. After the present Constitution was adopted the cent. was retained as part of our monetary system.’ April 2, 1792, congress passed an “act establishing a mint, and regulating the coins of the United States.” 'This act prescribed “Cents—each to be of the value of the one-hundredth part of a dollar, and to eontain eleven pennyweights of copper.” . : :

Ants by the Millions Used to Worry Beetles “Without Black Ants No Cocoa,” reads a sign posted at the entrance of a great plantation In Central Java. It does not go unheeded, either, for the natives hand in some 4,000,000 nests of these little creatures every year, and receive payment in return. These black ants live upon ftrees infested by the white cocoa louse. Neither the louse nor the ants injure the trees. The real enemy is a certain beetle whose name is Helopeltis, ‘which also attacks the -tea plant. It has been found that when the black ants are present the Helopeltis fails to injure the trees. Apparently this sap-sucking pest is disturbed by the activity of the ants, for the latter do not attack the beetle. This is: why the black ants are protected. Food is provided for them by picking the white cocoa louse from the sheils of the fruit. where they congrezate, and placing them on the cocoa trees to attract the ants and disturb the beetles.

People Must Reform

The people have revolted many times throughout 'their history, but have never vet revolted against their own worthlessness. : We can never have real reform until the people are somehow: made to realize that there ig but one reform: for the people themselves to reform; not to glorify their race or pastors, but to make themselves more comfortable. ' : : The one great thing to strive for is to render life as easy, comfortable and successful as possible: to modify savage nature. This can best be done by people behaving better; to help rather than fight each other.—E. ‘'W. Howe’s Monthly. e

- THE.CHEYROLET Chevrolet-Lincoln Sales Phone 145 Ligonier, Ind. The cold room of General .Motors 'Research Laboratories designed to put i(qax‘s through tests in freezing tem(peratures is one of the chief reasons for the heralded ability of the Chegvrol“et six to start easily and quickiy ,no matter how frigid the weather. The icold room was the first of its kind %in'the automobile industry and was ,originated - and. developed six years 'ago by General Motors engineers, since | which time it has been used as a pattern by other manufacturers. The obj—e(*t of the cold room, obviousily. is to furnish Chevrolet engineers an ;opportunity to study at intimate range gthe reaction of the Chevrolet car to the itemxiera!‘ures an aummo'bile must with istand in winter, whether left overnight gin an unfieated garage or parked ior %hours a,longside the curbing of a street. .It is, in short, an. indoor “proving ground” where = winter “weather” can be produced at will. Through the use of amonia gas, much lafter the manner in which it is emlployed in c¢old storage plants or in establishments devoted to the manufacture of ice, the thermometer readings can be raised or lowered by the engineers’ within a short space of time. For instance with the mercury at zerd the temperature can be dropped to 45 degrees below zero in three ‘hours. > :

The use of an electric dvnamometer, which is both moter and dynamo is a part o fthe program which follows when a Chevrolet car is owered on an elevator and rolled into the cold room. By means of the dynamometer it is possible to furnish a road torque for the car, when its rear wheels ape plac ed against a set of steel rollers set in the concrete floor of the ‘room. . The torque can be made to parallel the resistance the car would encounter when- driven outdoors on a highway in the same temperature. In other words, the car can be made to haul its load in the cold room. To add to the severity of the test, a blast of air is »(lirectf‘d against the radiator, to simulate the wind resistance which the car would have to conguer on t-)':_n'cl—-ing in the open. = o It is no easy road that a Cheyrolet car travels when it is being tested out in sub-zero weather by earnest but unfeeling - General Motors engineers. Even though it remains insi('lo of - four concrete walls fm' hours, when the test is completed the car knows that it has “been somewhere.” . :

Experiments in the cold room can be made singly—and are——with any unit of the car-—the manifold, the universal joint, {he action of the rear axle in low temperature, the performance of the fan, the starter, the carbureator, and so on. Likewise the engineers are able to make a detailed study of how the motor itself reacts to the frigid atmospherc -nd what effect 45 degrees below zero has on the lubricants and on the gasoline thio: gre in the. mavhine. Gr if thoy wish, the engineers can mak~> a Linket tcot of car as a whole uider ine cqme cir'('.umstances. Any cav in order o meet a thorough test, ‘must remain in the cold room for a period of five days. The “cast of characters” in the cold room consists of capable engineers garbed in aviator’s suits, even to helmets, patterned after the costumes worn hy round-the-world fliers, as the temperatures in which their work is done is on a par with the bitter cola which our tliers. are made to undergo at an altitude of 10,000 or 20,000 feet. Passers-by in the busy and more or less congested area of Detroit, where the General Motors liiboratories are located, are more oi less puzzled on a hot summer’s day, when they see these heavily clother young -men standing about taking the sun bath treatment. The engineers are merely enjoyving a respite from exireme cold, in order to get warm after having worked in “weather” that would do credit to a first class January blizzard in our nothern climes. = ' Chevrolet encincors are constantly Chevrolet ma;:ino;'{'s‘ are constantly engaged -upon oxperiments similar o the one outlined. Not ail of these, however are conducted in th» laboratory. General Motors proving ground is used summer and winter for. test purposes so that the car will be as nearly a perfect product as automotive sciénce can produce. -

r‘ Winning first and second place in ithe' recent Cor)enhagen.—Pap-is-(&,‘open-hagen 11440 niile race the Model A Ford car has again demonstrated to Europe its endurance speed and durability, Ml e . . Details of the performance of the two cars have just reached here. From ‘ihose accounts it - was learned that the car winning first place—a Tudor sedan not in any way outfitted for racing already had been driven 23,000 miles by the owner before the race. “My car is now as good as ever,” said the owner Paul Tholstrup of Ros kilde, Denmark, at the conclusion of the race. “lam ready to drive to Paris again without even giving it a onceover.” ; Eleven cars started the race. Six finished. The most formidable difficulties were .encoutitered. = Great stretches of road were deepiy rutted and for many miles impassable. For hours the cars had to be driven through fields. Dense fogs made the night driving extremely hazardpus. Many detours added to the difficulties. “We just went, that was all” Mr. Tholstrup said. ‘““No matter how deep the ruts, or whether, as in one instance, we had to go into the ficlds—in fact, we just flew over everyihing. And we did not have one single mishap, aside from a couple of pm.l(‘!,un-s.qn the e‘x‘xtire trin.? ; L The! contest was sponsored by the Danish Motor TUnion and the well kiown Danish newspaper “Politiken’. .
