The piirpone of thin wuter plant in to keep the engine cooled to a temperature that wiii make it efficient in operation. ff it were not for thin, the cylinder walln would heroine overheated ami the pintoim refuse to operate. Tiie cooling HyHtem of the new Ford in particularly interesting because it in mo simple ami reliable. When the radiator in full of wafer, the engine of the new Ford will not overheat under the hardeHt driving. Yet the water in ho regulated that it will not impair engine operation by running too cohl in winter. The cooling surface of the Ford rudiator in large, with four rows of tubes set in Htaggcred position ho that each receives the full benefit of the incoming air. The fan is of the airplane propeller type and draws air through the radiator at the rapid rate of 850 cubic fee? per minute at 1000 _ revolutions per minute of the motor. I The hot water around the cylinder lieud is drawn to the rudiator to he cooled by a centrifugal water pump of new design. The entire cooling system of the new Ford ia ao aimple in deaign and ao carefully mude that it requires very little attention. The radiator ahould he kept full, of course, and drained once each month ao that sediment will not collect and returd the free passage of water. In cold weather, n reliable anti-freeze solution should he udded. As owner and manager of this important water plant you should ulso see that the water pump and fan shaft are properly lubricated and the packing around the pump shaft kept in adjustment. II ose connections may also need replacement after long service. For those little adjustments, it puys to call on the Ford dealer. lie works under close factory supervision and he has been specially trained and equipped to do a thorough,competent job at a fair price.

NAVY AVIATOR GETS^ REVENGE ON ARMY OutstunU Record Holder in Other Branch. Washington.?Lieut. Alford J. NVH Hums, navy aviator and tpoed recon holder, has gained revenge for lilt bruoch of tin* aervlco over Us frlemll) eneiuy, the army. Hack In llTja. Lieut. James II. l>oo little of the army ultlxed pontoon# U his land plane, entered the Behneldei international seaplane race and Hrw uwuy with first pluce lu the record time of 282 miles an hour. Then, on May 23, 1027. ho performed the un precedeuted i?ut of turning an "out Hide'1 loop, and chalked up anotlrei mark for the army. The honors are even now. IJouten ant Williams hug not only duplicated DoolllUe's feut, but created a stum new to aerial acrobutlea ?ait outsldt loop from un upside-down i>oHltlon. It addition to shuttering un army record ho uaed an army type lund piano. How He Did It. At u height of 8,000 feet, the navy pilot's plane described u horizontal ligure eight, 000 feet high, the llr^i loop mudo'on the Doollttle pattern, and the second starting ufter a hall roii, \nIhI? uylng upside down. In a nortiiul loop the aviator putt the nose of the machine down sllgntly to obtain maximum speed, then, pull lng back on the control stick, rises slowly at tirsl and then more rapidly as the top of the loop Is made. Just after the top la reached, lie shuts ofl Ills motor and lets the machine fall through the last half of the loop which looks like the letter ' E Ir script. Tim "outside" loop begins and It completed with the ulrman's head on the outside Instead of on the Inside us In the conventional loop. The new maneuver begins and ends with the pilot Hying upside down. In u normal loop the pilot feels he is glued to ids seat. In the "outside'1 a force seems to pull him out of the cockpit. "Everything seemed to rush to my head," Lieutenant Williams said, "and for a moment I was blinded." Crisis Comes at Half Circle. The crises of both loops were reached when they were half through he added, and there was a strong temptation to believe they had been completed. He admitted his Hying senses deceived him, and he concluded he wag through with the circle when in reality ho had gone but halfway around. Filers estimate that the centrifugal force exerts a pressure of eight to one, making It necessary for the seat of the plane to be able to support a weight of 1,200 pounds. The difficulty experienced by the pilot In maintain lng his own position with reference to the controls, with the blood rush lng to his head, was well known i<> the pilots at the naval air station at Anacosta, who witnessed William^ flight amid gasps of amazement.

He breathed his j last during a howling northeast snow* t storm, which must have reminded f him, since he was conscious to the last, more of his beloved Russia than of the French Riviera, where sued > fierce storms are almost unknown. The collapse of the heart of the J old warrior, sudden and irrevocable, came when his condition was showing . an improvement in his valiant Inst . battle against pneump/iiu. The grand duchess, Prince Andrew of Russia, Princess Battenberg, the Grand Duke Peter of Rufeia und his , wife and the Duke of Leuchtenberg , were present when the end came. ( There were also some of his old re| tainers and faithful supporters, who had followed him in his exile. The grand duke came here from , Paris lust November to seek u moie I temperate winter.

V EN T11. ATION 1M PO RT A NT ( Public Health Service (jives Sonic Pointers to Householders . With the cold weather of fall and winter comes a decided increase in i colds and other respiratory diseases. According to the U. S. Public Health Service this is due to several factors. , We live principally indoors and are I brought in more intimate contact with one another, thus allowing for the spread of infections. -Secondly, outside weather conditions with the resultant exposure to cold and damp: ness are thought to play a definite part in causing these diseases. And ^ last but not least, is the poor venti, lation which so frequently take? in the home, factory and office. It has been established that the 1 most comfortable and most healthful [ r<>om temperature is between 68 to70 degrees. There should - be a slight i amount of air motion in the room at all times. This may be produced by a small window opening. The.proper way to ventilate for health is to keep an accurate thermometer in each living room, keep the windows open slightly and keep the heating system regulated to keep the room temperature aiounu os degrees. \ entilation of the bedroom is a dif. ferent problem altogether. When bedding enough ' > keep the sleeper warm is available it is beneficial to have the windows wide open and the full outdoor air circulating through the room. To cut down drafts do not close the windows entirely but open them only slightly. The health service's advice is: keep the house heated comfortably warm, but do not bake yourself i and family.?The Pathfinder.
