Its area of 45,126 square miles is larger than the combined New Eng- land states, except Maine, with New Jersey thrown in for good measure. Its name means “Penn’s Woodland" and was so named by King Charles II, who granted this territory to the Quaker, William Penn, and named it in commemoration of Penn’a father, who had been a distinguished admiral and on terms of peculiar friendship and intimacy with the royal family. This grant was made in Heu of £16,000, which the king owed Ad miral Penn. On this basis It originally cost about $2 a square mile. Pennsylvania has assumed such an important place among the states that it is often called the Keystone state. This term was probably derived originally because her name was carved on the keystone of the bridge over Rock creek, between Wash ington and Georgetown. Later on it was applied on account of the great importance of the state in national elections. Its delega tion to congress totals 38, sec ond only in size to that from New York, and Pennsylvania accordingly has 38 presidential electors. William Penn first came over to America in 1682. The follow ing year he laid out the city of Philadelphia, or "Brotherly Love,” which was named after a biblical city in Asia Minor. As Pennsylvania was the only col ony without a seacoast, Penn obtained from the duke of York the control of Delaware, and un til the Revolution these two provinces were under the same proprietary government. Quar rels with Maryland over bound aries caused a formal survey to be made by two surveyors, Mason and Dixon, and it was this which became famous dur ing the Civil war as the Mason and Dixon line, the dividing mark between the slave and the free states.

Article No. 1 THE PURPOSE OF OIL Machinery of any kind transmits power by movable members. These parts must slide in guides or bearings and they work most efficiently when their motion excites the least fric tional resistance. Their ground surfaces appear perfectly smooth to touch and sight, but un der the microscope show marked rid ges and irregularities. When two such surfaces come Into direct con tact at high speeds and under heavy pressure they grind and abrade each other like two pieces of sand paper. No machinery can long survive such wear and tear, To protect the finished surfaces, it is necessary to insert between them a film of oil. This oil cushion keeps apart the op posing minute ridges. When the parts move, they split the film into “tangential" layers which slip or flow upon each other with little re sistance. Thus the basic purpose of lubrication is accomplished by sub stituting the easy Internal friction of oil for the destructive sliding friction of metal. It Is more important to maintain this oil film between the bearing surfaces than to keep fuel in the gas oline tank. But If the oil is of un even or incorrect quality, contains impurities, or evaporates quickly, the delicate film is easily destroyed. Then the metals come into partial or complete contact, are scored, and sometimes even fused by the heat. Hermiston Auto Co UNDEN HORSE GOOD COMPANY
