R. Bowman, manager of General Pe troleum Corporation in Oregon. I "This Introduction took place In : Seattle in December, 123. As a 'result, the sales of General gaso line Increased in leaps and bounds, even beyond expectations of the ex ecutives themselves." i Mr. Bowman lays this phenom enal growth directly to the qual ity of their gasoline, and also to the manner of distribution ex clusively through independent I dealers. He stales that it was only after much patience and ex perimenting that they hit upon a gasoline that would meet the nec essary requirements under all con ditions, and one that bad the pro per balance to Insure 'quality.' I "In commenting on the necessi ty of having a gasoline well bal anced, he says: "When a gasoline turns Into power. It is vaporized and mixed with air in the carbure tor and in this explosive form fed In the firing chamber of the motor cylinder. The upward stroke 'of the piston compresses the 'gas' tight ly whereupon the spark Jumps from pole to pole of the spark plug, firing the mixture. The ex nloslon takes but 1-300111 of a Bec loud, and turns into gas that which has been vaporized iiquia. -inis gas, at a temperature of 3,000 de grees Fahrenheit, has instantan eous expansion which must find an immediate outlet. So the piston Is driven downward to communicate the motion through the crank shaft and transmission to the driving wheels. If the gasoline Is not pro perly balanced, there will be an uneven spark, which not only tends to cut down the power very noticeably, but also adds much to the wear and tear of the engine by causing Jtrky explosions. "We were confident of the quality of our product and there fore felt perfectly safe in offering it to the public under our slogan of allowing the engine to decide. Our distribution has increased and expanded until the motorist now finds knights of the green-and-white sign in all of western Wash ington, western Oregon and the San Francisco Bay territory."

AMERICAN LEGION ENDOWMENT FUND (Continued worn page 1.) neglect to a life of vice, pauper ism or crime. Every needy child saved to healthy maturity In body and sound development in charac ter saves thousands of dollars to society, which carries the heavy burden or criminality, pauperism, vtciouBness. Ninety-three per cent of criminals have a record of neglected childhood. The American Legion Endow ment is a sound investment. Days of exposure in snow, rain, mud and mire, hours of soffoca- tion by poison gas, the weeks of the Influenza epidemic, all con tributed to tho ghastly herituge of tuberculosis which has struck down service mm of the VYyrld War by thousands. They huve gone down slowly, reluctantly, fighting against the dread of abandoning families to want even where government offered free hospitalization and the chance of cure. Every day that dread pro blem in faced In many a home of an American veteran. What will the wife do? What will become of the babies? As neighbors to every swh a home there are the homes of Lo glonalres. As the friend of every sufferer there is the h gion post of his home town. Unfettered by red tape, equipped with a com radeship of understanding, the Le gion holds out its hand to help over those spot which even the best organized government relief machinery cannot touch. No hard and fast act of law limits the power of the Legion to hHp when and where and how the help is most needed. The Legion wor kers, the Auxiliary worker, re quire no paper report forms, no red tape, no legal opinions, no higher authority. They are there. Tbey go. They carry, not charity, but comradeship, friendship, and relief. The limit of their service is not to follow Leglonalre,, but to all who were tn their country's service. Pack of army of service stand tho national rehabilitation service and the national child wel- 1 fare Qrvke. They stand ready with nospltal service, with the children's billets, with medical di- 1 rectloo, will. co-ortiluatU. coo Remember This: GENERAL Gasoline assures you Easy Starting, Clean Com bustion. Maximum Power, Full Mileage I The Sign of Unchanging Gasoline Quality! Why has there been no change in the quality of GENERAL Gasoline since its introduction to motorists?, Because GENERAL was right in the first place I kept faith by unfailing adherence to grade! Scientifically and honestly made according to carefully worked-out plans, refined by the most modern method known and balanced (in the re fining) so as to give as nearly perfect results as human agency can achieve, GENERAL came to motorists as a revelation.

Costing relatively little in annual expense, they form the dynamic center, Inspiration and direction for the nation-wide dis charge of our obligation to the war's disabled and the orphans, Their six-year fight against tuber culosis is but one of many factors in this campaign. This central dynamo of service In binding up the wounds of a nation's battle cannot he allowed to atop, nor to slow down. Its operation must not be left to chance. ' The great life work of The Am erican Legion for the disabled and the children, for whirh it re quires and endowment hacking of five million dollars, would be nec essary, right and Just if it were to cost five hundred million. If it is neglected it will throw back upon th government or upou public or private resources a vusi ly greater task and a vastly grea ter cost. The Legion, with iis especial duty to its comrades, would do the job at any cost. Finding it practical to sustain tli is nation-wide program on the income of a relatively small en dowment. It asks for the prompt provision of that endowment dur ing the coming few months. It feels confident that it need not beg for this need, but that it can ask it knowing that all who give will do so gladly and proudly, thankful for the privilege of fchar ing this responsibility to thoe whose sacrifice to their country was beyond money and beyond price. "We desire to help the child own mother if that I possible," says National Commander Jan. A. Drain, of the Legion. "We s-ek to supplement hr earning powr so that she may make a hom-e for her family. "If this cannot be don, w iek a foster home of the high-! character for the child. We make a careful investigation ixfore ? allow the child to bo adopted.

A series of Legion Hiiletn oh the 'cottage plan' Is being estab lished In various parts of the country. Otter Lake In the first of these. A second is under con struction on a HK8-acre farm near Independence, Kansas. Another has opened In New Jersey and the others will soon be built In T n nosee and California. "What Is a billet?

The billets are to be as nearly like your home and my home as it is humanly posslblo to make them." Many of the cases of children who neod BK.iHtance are doubly distressing. Often tho father, dis abled. Is una tile to support his family. Care and cure of tho men who returned from the war mere wrecks of what they were, have always been the first con slderatinn of the Legion. And tn rehabilitation ca tho Legion has found, almo.st always, a pro blem of child care rlosoly related to the father's problem. The two interlock. There was Uoy Hunter. He had cone overseas early in the war. Owe day ierman gas clawed his throat. It was a little thing, Ju-t a touch.

Consider one class of disabled only, sufferers from neuro-psychi-'atric d I nouses who have been po- pularly known as the 'shell-shoe-j ked". The Legion has taken the position that not ono of these men ; chouid be given up to a hopeless j future of confinement and domlctl- ary cam. Every day meq are go ing forth cured who, but for the Umit, insistent fight waged by the Legion, would have gone to hos pitals for the insane for life. To carry on this program of i work for the disabled and for the 1 orphan of the war and to Insure Its permanence, the American Le gion Is now seeking an endow ment fund of $5,000,000. Presi dent Coolldge has himself accept ed the national honorary leader ship in the movement for this en dowment, an unusual procedure by the chief executive. He and other statesmen and leaders are anxious to support a movement that assures a fair opportunity and a square deal In life to the two great consequences of the World War, orphans and disabled.
