MOTORCYCLE TAXIS FOR NEW YORK
nil, New I'ork will be Indulging in
a new form nf taxi riding. In I'aris, [tome, nnd several other cltlei of Europe.
Americans, the pnsl summer, have enjoyed the novelty of the motorcycle tnxis,
which are. becoming common over there.
The side cars in which the passengers ride are ftlled up with all the com
forts of the moßi luxurious motor car.'-. Thore Is n new thrill to be had in rid
ing in one of these taxis. Besides the fare is much lower than in the motor
car affairs.
IfiOST EFFICIENT
AUTO OPERATIC:!
Saving of Gasoline Given Place of
Greatest Consideration
by Owner.
FUEL CONSUMED WHILE IDLE
Rapid Acceleraticn Is an Expensive
Luxury, Using More Gas Than
Gradual Speed Increases—
Other Little Economies.
Honest efforts to operate nn auto
mobile economically often fall be
fiuise the driver does not, In many
cases, understand the fundamental
practices most linportani to good re
suits. Although fuel is by no sn*-aiis
the largest Item of operating expense,
gasoline savings ore customarily
given the place of greatest considera
tion und consequently deserve flrsl
mciii lon.
The mosl flagrant Bource of gaßo
line wash' lies in idling the motor.
Many drivers believe gasoline con
sumption to be slight while idling
and that by avoiding use of the starter,
they arc saving the storage battery,
To be correct, the battery Is much
better off w hen used normally, not be
ing allowed to remain fully charged
and practically Inactive for long perl
ods of time. <>n the other hand, fuel
consumption while Idling Is surpris
ingly great because the vacuum In the
manifold is so low that a very rich
mixture is required In order that the
heavy fuel now In use may reach the
cylinders.
Harm Done by Idling.
When iilliiii:. excessive amounts of
gasoline colled In the manifold and
valve ports- excessive carbon is formed
the motor overheats and the raw
f. riiMiiiiu> dilutes the crankcase "il
Lubrication at this slow speed i* in
efficient because the splash from tin
connecting rods Is minimized.
Rnpld acceleration, although de
eirable In traffic, Is an expensive lux
ury, nsiiiLT much more gasoline than
gradual speed Increases. Unnecessary
and violent application of the speeds
iiiid brakes "ill wear the bands pre
maturely, strain every pnri of the
car and speed tin's toward the junk
pile. On long stretches of open road
the driver will obtain better results
by using the hand throttle Instead of
the fool accelerator, if one is Installed
in the car. This is true because the
uneven gas feed caused by the fool
fluttering up and down «'ii the fool
throttle is eliminated, the hand throttle
providing a steady flow of fuel t<> the
engine.
Many drivers labor under the im
pression thai if li economical to leave
Hi,, spark advanced to the limit and
run in high speed us long as the motor
will hang on, bul the spark should al
ways be retarded us sunn as the motor
begins to labor. A continually retarded
spark is equally harmful The spark
Betting should always be adapted to
the condition* under which the engine
is operating.
Some Simple Matters.
' Even simple matters, such as steer
ing are Important; the proper method
of turning corners and minimi)
switching back and forth when parking
arc Important tire, transmission, rear
axle and gasoline savers. The car will
run most efficiently within a certain
easily determined range of speeds. All
of these things enter Into this question
of economical driving, exerting appreci
able Influences upon operating ex
penses. They are the fundamentals
of skillful driving which the car owner
will do well to study, because they
result in smoother operation, sensible
motor maintenance and true operating
economy.

Homemade and Effective Hot-
Motor Alarm for Autos.
Any Man With a Little Mechanical

Main Tube of Thermostat

Below is an illustration that shows
n homemade and very effective hot
motor alarm. Any ear owner with B
little mechanical ability can easily
build one. The sketch shows a sec
tion of the radiator at the top of the
water chamber. The main tube of the
thermostat device is made oi' bakelite
or one of the impregnated bakelite
fillers that is water and steam proof,
The top of (his lube is threaded Into
a bracket which is in turn soldered
Into the neck of the radiator. The
lower end of the tube is also
threaded Into the mercury chamber
which is made of fiber. This chamber
is locked and made leak-proof with a
nut. At the upper end of the tube 1h
the contact which Is provided with an
extension contact of brass and which
is nlso led out through a brass ribbon
nnd soldered to the supporting brack

on the car.
After the device Is assembled the
copper tube is soldered In place and

HOW the cost of building quality tires has been brought down to the lowest
level in history was explained by H. S. Firestone, President of the Company,
to the stockholders at the annual meeting on December 15, 1921.

S. Selling oostß reduced 38%.
Mr. Firestone stated. "This reduction It, prices la made possible by our unusually
advantageous buying facilities, and the enthusiasm, loyalty and determination of our
00% stockholding organisation.
"Due credit must b« given to Firestone dealers who are selling Firestone tires on
a •mailer margin of profit. This brings every Firestone saving direct to the car*
