was an understanding that a reunion

was presented to the club on its or

last survivor should attend the ban- ;

to the vacant chairs of his departed i
comrades. f
This year only three were present
at the meeting, which was held in
Stillwater, Minn., on the anniversary
of the battle of Bull Run. Peter Hall, j
president of 'the club, declared during j
the meeting that the requirement* of |
the constitution would make the last I
occasion too sorrowful, and suggested '
another way to mark the passing of
the organization. He offered a plan
that the last two survivors should

The adjustment of rarbaretora by
analysis of exhaust gas Is based upon
the fact that the cartx»a dloxode In
the exhaust Is a direct Indication of
the air-fuel ratio and completeness of
combustion. In turn, the air-fuel
ratio and completeness of combus
tion tell whether the carburetor is
properly adjusted for maximum power
and gasoline economy.
Adjustment Usually Rich.
Other conditions being constant, the
mileage obtainable varies as the per
centage of carbon dioxide iu .tlie ex
haust gas and air-fuel ratio. This has
been little realized by most garage
men in the past. Usually tbe adjust
ment is far too rich for maximum
economy. There are, however, excep-
