One of the pretty houses recently built in Bellevue Park, the attractive residential district being developed
n the East End of the city by the Union Real Estate Investment Company.
Equip Old as Well
as New Homes With
Modern Conveniences
Many of the homes that are now'
being constructed for both sales and
rental purposes are being fitted with
fixtures, wiring, etc., for electric light
ing along with the other "modern con
veniences." Up until a few years ago a
house was considered pretty well pro
vided with "modern comforts" if it
contained furnace, gas, water, and the
range. Now provision is made for the
installation of electricity not only for
lighting but for connecting with the
electric range and so on.
Wh\le the electric idea is being fol
lowed In the newer houses, a similar
plan Is being carried out in many of
the older dwellings by means of a wir
ing campaign conducted by the Har
risburg Light and Power Company.
Certain inducements are being offered
by the electric light company whereby

Diagram Showing Power
Impulses of the Eights
Artemas Ward, Jr., president of the
i King Motor Car Co., has caused to b<
MAY 13, 1016.
copyrighted an Interesting; diagram
that shows the even and continuous
flow of power to the rear wheels of
the eight cylinder automobile in com
parison to the power impulses of the
four and six cylinder motors as trans
mitted to the rear wheels. The Idea
which is quite unique has caused a
big demand to be made on the King
Motor Car Company for one of these
diagrams which are being distributed
by application to the King factory in
Detroit.
Worked out by I. D. Hocap, tech
nical engineer ot the King Motor Car
Company, whil« he was lecturing on
the eight cylinder King chassis at the
automobile shows the idea is Bimple
and explains with a great, degree of
thoroughness the evenness of power
of tno eight cylinder motor.
The diagram, which ts in the hands
of the local King representative shows
the power impulses from the four, six
and eight cylinder motors as they
would register on the outside of the
tiro if that were practically possible to
obtain such an illustration. It ex
plains that the evenness of the power
impulses of the eight cylinder moto
car has no gaps to be bridged by mo
mentum. no high and low power per
iods, but a swift flowing stream of
energy, easy on tires, mechanism and
passengers.
