apace,-having reached the proportions
of over $1000, with a number of
pledges yet to hear from. Fraternal j
organizations locally which hare been
solicited to furnish Individual rooms
in the institution have been slow' to
respond, few if nny perfecting arrange

tentatively to contribute, providing
other orders sign up, the result being
that tho buck is simply passed from
one lodgo to another, nothing being
accomplished. With some tho pretext
is raised that they do not contribute
due to tho circumstance of not being

Gas
Non-
Detonating
ne-
do you use it in your car ?
Gasolines explode in two ways. One kind explodes in
stantaneouslydetonates. It has the effect of a sledge
hammer blow.
v It crashes against the piston head, forcing the stroke
by the single impulse.
It limits the compression because of its tendency to ex
plode prematurely, and thus reduces power and efficiency.
Detonation causes "knoeking." You notice it especially
on the hills. It increases vibration thus increasing wear
and tear.
The Prolonged Impulse
The other kind of explosion the more efficient kind
you get from Union Gasoline.
It is a prolonged explosion. The impulse is progressive
and sustained not crashing and instantaneous.
It thrusts the piston throughout the entire stroke.
So Union Gasoline permits increased compression in
your motor , for compression, as authorities agree, is limited
by J,he tendency of gasoline to detonate. And on maxi
mum compression is dependent maximum efficiency and
power.
More Power on Hills
Thus Union Non-Detonating Gasoline makes your car a better
hill climber. You find a new "lift." Your car is; in fact, being
pulled up by a steady, sustained impulse rather than by a series of
jerks. . .
Likewise you have new speed on the level and more snap 5n the
getaway both results of high compression.
You enjoy a smoother running car. It has less vibration, for the
power impulses are smooth and constant. It saves wear and tear.
And you obtain more miles per gallon because of increased
efficiency.
Union Gasoline is the product of progressive refining methods'
Its quality is governed by exhaustive tests. It is constantly being
improved by the research of able chemists who are aided by the
very finest equipment for studying refining processes. ' '
