Appreciating the constantly in-

the Ford Motor Company has given
to this fea-

The distributor is located in a
readily accessible position on top
of the engine.
Centrifugal water pump, large
radiator and airplane propeller-type
fan provide a cooling system which
makes the car very difficult to ov-
erheat, except from abuse, such as
running without enough oil, or dry
radiator.
From 20 to 30 miles to a gallon
of gasoline, depending upon driv-
ing speed, is the gasoline consump-
tion announced. Feed to carbure-
tor is by gravity.
The oiling system, also a distinc-
tive Ford design, is a combination
of pump, splash and gravity feed.
The new transmission is of the se-
lective sliding gear type, with stan-
dard shift, three speeds forward
and one reverse. The main shaft
runs on ball bearings, the counter-
shaft on roller bearings and the re-
verse idler on bronze bearings, a
power-saving design unusual on
light cars. Shifting of gears is
noiselessly and easily accomplished,
at the pressure of a finger.
Multiple dry-disc clutch, rear
axle of three-quarter floating type
housed in electrically welded steel,
and spiral bevel gear drive are in-
teresting features. The axle shafts
carry none of the weight of the
car, the wheels running on roller
bearings on the housing. Newly de-
veloped springs of the transverse
semi-elliptic type and hydraulic
shock-absorbers prevent excessive
up-and-down movement and remove
side sway.
Irreversible steering gear, which
prevents shocks from being trans-
mitted back to the hands of the
driver, makes handling exceptional-
ly easy. Maximum steering safety
is further provided by a gear hous-
ing of welded steel forgings, and a
steel tube steering column welded
into the housing, making a sturdy

A BIG STEEL GIRDER
FELL ON TOP OF AUTO
J. Barr Spangler, president of
Marietta Borough Council, had a
narrow escape from being killed or
probably seriously injured when his
automobile was struck by a heavy
steel girder which fell on the car.
Mr. Spangler was on his way to
Columbia and when he reached the
bridge at Chickies he stopped his
car, and alighted from it until one
of the trucks were through the
bridge. Just as he was about to
get back into his automobile a
heavy steel girder which the men
of Contractor Sherrick were low-
ering, fell across the front of the
car, completely demolishing it.
