a valve that opens and closes as the
liquid in the thermostat expands and
contracts. When the water is cold
this valve is closed, and the result is
that the water in the radiator is cut
oft from that in the jackets surround
ing the cylinders.
The main advantage of the thermos
tat in cold weather is that, the quan
tity of water surrounding the cylin
ders being comparatively small, the
motor is warmed and reaches run
ning efficiency in a much shorter
time than ordinarly. Without th«
thermostat all the water in the cooling
system would have to be neated be
fore the engine would run well,
whereas with the thermostat, only a
small quantity has to be warmed at
the outset, and the thermostat valve
admits the water into the radiator
slowly, as the temperature rises in the
fluid surrounding the cylinders and
opens the valve gradua ly.
In the Cadillac Eight a thermostat
and valve are provided for each
block of cylinders. The device is
wholly automatic in its action.
ELECTRIC SYSTEM FOR SAXON
Compact, Powerful System May Be
Had as Extra Equipment
Announcement is made that Saxon
cars may now be provided on order
with electric starting and lighting sys
tem as extra equipment.
The new starter combines the Im
portant virtues of silence, power and
lightness in weight. It is a single unit
system, designed especially for Saxon
cars and manufactured in Detroit ex
clusively for use on the Saxon.
When in operation this system be
comes a combined starting, lighting
and ignition system, as the ignition
is taken from the battery instead of
from dry cells. Connection from the
motor generator to the gasoline mo
tor is by means of a silent chain to a
Bpecial gear on the flywheel.
The starter is absolutely noiseless
when it is cranking the car and makes
no appreciable noise when the car is
running, even at high speed.
Though very powerful, the Saxon
starter Is compact and light. This Is
claimed to be an important point,
since many of the starting systems
used in some light cars are designed
to operate much larger cars and con
sequently they add a great deal of
dead weight to the light cars, cutting
down power considerably.
An Exide battery, one of the best
types purchasable on the market to
day, is employed in connection with
the Saxon starter.
The list price of the Saxon starting
and lighting system is S7O, when or
dered as extra equipment on a new
car.
BROKEN RAIL DISCOVERED

Thursday morning a broken rail on the
west-bound passenger track at the end
of Cove mountain, near the signal

HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH
CUR GOES 28.7 MILES
ON GALLON OF FUEL
Jeffery Chesterfield Six It Given
Series of Tests by C. A.
C. Committee
A letter received by the Bentz-
Landls Auto Company from C. G. Sin
sabaugh, of Chicago, tells of a recent
remarkable performance of the new
Jeffery Chesterfield as follows:
"Surprising results were obtained
yesterday afternoon when a Jeffery
Chesterfield six of the vintage of 1915
covered 28.7 miles on one gallon of
gasoline in a series of teats conducted
for the Stromberg Motor Devices Com
pany of this city by the technical com
mittee of the Chicago Automobile
Club, with Chairman F. E. Edwards
and Harry A. Tarantous officiating.
The tests were made to demonstrate
the fuel economy, acceleration, flexi
bility and hill climbing ability of the
Stromberg carburetor, and in each and
every one of the series the result was
out of the ordinary. The fuel test was
over the boulevards, startir/j from
Garfield and South Western avenue
boulevards and running to Oak Park,
thence to the north side, the gallon of
Red Crown gasoline, which was of 5 8
test, being exhausted in Lincoln Park.
All through this trip the clutch was
not slipped, except when traffic con
gestion made It necessary. The dash
adjustment on the carburetor was dis
connected, and in order that the best
be a fair one the fan was in operation
throughout the run, says Edwards.
Acceleration Test Given
"Next came the acceleration test.
With the carburetor adjustment the
same as during the economy run. the
Jeffery was driven from a standing
start to thirty miles an hour in 12 0-5
seconds. The flexibility test saw the
car run at four miles an jhour, then
speeded up to forty-four. Because of
the road conditions greater speed was
impossible.
'•Then Edwards had the car driven
to Hubbard's hill. Coming south and
starting from the cross walk at the
bottom, the Jeffery, from a standing
start and after the driver had gone
through the gears, attained a speed of
fifteen miles an hour in high gear at
the finish. flying start, the car
showing eleven miles an hour, the Jef
fery then went up In high gear, at
taining a speed of eighteen miles per
hour at the top of the hill.
Our Weighed 4,100 Pounds
"The Jeffery six motor is one of 3
by 5-lncli bore and stroke and the
car with its occupants welshed 4,100
pounds, thus giving a ton mileage of
58.8 ton miles on the gallon of gaso
line. Silvertown cord tires were used
in the demonstration, while the mile
age was recorded by a Stewart speed
ometer."
BEST MONTH FOR HUPPS
More llupmobiles Sold In October
Tlian Any Month of Year
"Every man Is apt to estimate busi
ness conditions by the results in his
own field," said President J. Walter
Drake, of the Hupp Motor Car Com
pany. „
"From the flying start that we have
made In the past two months on our
1915 output, I should judge that the
outlook for the year's automobile busi
ness among the cars of popular de
mand and reputation was more than
encouraging.
"Deeplte the war and other condi
tions that seem to have had a more
or less depressing effect on business
confidence, it will probably surprise
you to know that the month of Octo
ber, in volume of business throughout
the United States, surpassed any
month of the previous season. Dur
ing this period we shipped and sold
for cash 1,382 cars. To be sure, in
the month of April last, we shipped a
larger total of cars, but these included
some 250 that went to foreign ports.
"Notwithstanding the fact that
Hupmobile business has more than
doubled during the past month of
September and October over the same
two months of any previous year in
the history of our organization, we
arc still behind in our orders, and
weather conditions —as well as the en
thusiastic demand for the new model,
indicate that a steady demand for
these cars will continue for some time
to come and It will be unusually late
in the season before we are caught up
with our standing orders.
"The Middle West, the Northwest
and the Pacific Coast have taken most
of the cars, although the demand'is by
no means dead in any section of the
countrv. Even the States in the cot
ton belt, despite the unfavorable busl- >
'ness conditions, have taken a fair
share of their quota during the past
two months and report an immediate
outlook for better business conditions.
"Of course In the 1915 Hupmobile
we know that we have a better mer
chandising proposition than we have
ever before given our dealers, but I
must confess that It was an agreeable
surprise to find that the United States
has already not only taken Us own
quota, but lias abcorbed the defiicit
in our foreign trade, which, as you
mav know, has for the past two years
amounted to nearly 25 per cent, of our
total business."

THE HAYNES LIGHT SIX CABRIOLET
"For winter and summer driving, In
rain or shine, for a Jaunt through the
country or a trip to the theater, the
cabriolet is the ideal car for general
utility," states George p. MacFariand,
of the Harrlsburg Auto Co., distribu
tors in this territory for the Haynes,
America's First Car.
"In response to the great demand
for a car of this type the Haynes com
pany has announced a light six cabrio
let.
"Because of Its many advantages
the cabriolet is destined to become
very popular. It may be converted
from a roadster to a coupe or vice
versa in less than a minute's time by
a person within the car.
"When used as a roadster the plate
glass windows are dropped into re-

An American Car of European
Beauty—at a Moderate Price
For years men have turned to makers across the water as the orig
inators of automobile styles. But this is changed now. For 1915 an
American car has set a high mark of beauty for men to judge all cars by.
And this car is the Chalmers "Master Six" Torpedo. Point by
point it is fully comparable with the most expensive European models.
Yet its price is $2400. It is a car so exclusively distinctive in beauty
and quality that it clearly defines a new period in American auto
mobile building.
Wherein It Excels
The body is of the "boat" type of design built lower than usual to
emphasize the "raciness" and smartness of the lines.
The front seats are divided by an aisle of ample space. All the
seats are sloped to give the greatest ease. There s but a single door
of extra width in the center of the body on either side. The uphol
stery is luxuriously deep and comfortable.
Mechanically This Car Leads All
For seven years the Chalmers Motor Company has been first to
introduce many of the most noted improvements in automobile
building.
In this seventh year success, the "Master Six" Torpedo, is embod
ied all that has been gained during these years. There is no unproved
part or principle of construction. It is a car of known quality.
In basic mechanical design the chassis is similar to that of the famous 1914
"Master Six" which thoroughly proved itself in the hands of thousands of owners
over every kind of roads.
And the automobile world knows no better. Yet there are several detailed ,
improvements and a number of 1915 Chalmers refinements which make it even
a greater "over value."
The Most We Can Say Is, 11 See This Car
#Much as we might say in praise of the "Master Six
Torpedo we could not hope to equal the impression created fir|Tj|H
by seeing this great car. So we urge you to come in at
once and see that what we say is not exaggerated by our
natural enthusiasm over this new "Master Six.

MAXWELL TOURING CAB RACES
Entered against a field of five larger
and higher priced cars, stripped for
racing, a Maxwell "25," 1915 model,
carried off tho .honors in a two-day
meet at Imperial. Nebraska.
The Chase county race course is one
of the best half mile tracks in the
country, but was in poor condition at
the time of the races, due to rains.
The Maxwell won two out of three,
five-mile events the first day, the best
time for the five miles being seven
minutes, fifteen seconds. The second
day the Maxwell won three out of four
events. The fastest time made was
7:10 for the five miles.
Automobile racing is becoming a
craze In the Middle West and next
year promises to see even greater en
thusiasm and more speed contests
scheduled.
cesses in the doors and the curtains
are kept in a carrying space built into
the back of the seat. The collapsible
top is made of leather and Is braced
in such a manner as to stretch out
all wrinkles when in the coupe posi
tion giving the smooth, even appear
ance of sheet metal.
"In the Haynes cabriolet a compart
ment is provided In the back of the
driver's seat, out of the way and yet
easily accessible, for carrying gloves
parcels, and other small articles, and
ample space Is provided at the rear
for carrying suitcases, grips, etc.
"The cabriolet will hejp solve the
problem of a great many people who
maintain two cars —one for summer
and one for winter use —Inasmuch as
it is comfortablfe for all seasons of the
year."
