By Cyril SnntW
We had th opportunity to nJoy
& few glencea of aa English oar one
day last week. It waa a email throe
or four paaaenger coupe from Alberta.
Canada and It only helped to further
convince us that Brltlah cars. In our
eyes, are the cheapest looking cars
we have ever seen. We pawed thla
car on the street and so of course
we didn't have much of a chance to
really get a good look at It and de
cide what kind It was. However, after
looking through all of the English
pamphlets wc have, we finally de
cided that it was a car probably from
the B. &. A. factory in England. Thla
factory li a mnall arms manufactur

the actual name or the concern If
that should Interna you. The car Is
about the size of the American Aus
tin and much worse looking. It la
equipped with wire wheels and tlrea
not much larger than are found on
modern bicycles. But, even though
the oar probably Isn't much to look
at. we suppose It does have Its .ad
vantages. For Instance It wouldn't
be st all unusual for It to get 39 or
40 mlies to the (tallon of gas nd
even maybe more. Then too. It could
be really appreciated If one lived In
a city where parking was a real prob
lem this ear could little doubt he
put In a spare only about half as
large is would be required by the or
dlnary oar. However, even though it
does have these advantages, we are
quite certain that moat Americans
would be quite satlnfied to continue
own Ing os rs as they are made by
American manufacUirers.
We hare recently received more lit
erature on another foreign car whleh
we think will be Interesting to our
readers. Tt Is known as the Aro 30
Horsepower model. Judging from the
lllURtrations, we would any that It
is about the same sire as most of our
low priced cars but It la only about
half as high (that la over-all height.)
phaeton of extremely sporty lines
praeton of extremely sporty ltnes.
This car with the windshield folded
down as It Is shown in all of the 11
luatrstlons Is evidently only about
three feet high! Thet Is conaldersblv
lower than any ear we have seen or
heard about for a long time. How
ever, even though the car Is ex
tremely low It still has ample clear
ance, and In the ckwed models there
Appears to be a good deel more than
ample head rcom. This car is to com
pletely different In many of Its re
spect from American csrs that It la
almost Impossible to try a comparl-
2 j n we- shall only try to describe
some of Its novel features. First of
all the oar does not have an eight.
six. or four cylinder engine, but It
haa a .two-cylinder engine) At the
mention of this you may say that
It Is In the motorcycle rank then, but
some of the best little cars In Eu
rope have only two cylinders. A big
argument which Is given for this
two-stroke motor is that It has only
B moving parts, while the four cylin
der engine of comparable power has
35! Furthermore the engine clutch.
stArter. dynamo, gearbox and differ
ential are all built Into one unit.
This is made possible by the car's
front drive. The car has the conven
tional three forward speed gearbox
which Is easy and silent to change ac
cording to the Information. There la
also something else about the lubrl
cation of thla motor which to our
knowledge has never before been ap
plied to automobile motors though
tt Is used In motor boats, That Is
the engine Is lubricated by oil whl'-h
la mixed dirertly with the gasoline!
This supposedly gives a very effective
and simple lubrication. The next
thing we shall try to explain Is the
frame. It is the simplest frame we
have ever seen and probably Is as
simple ss any frame could ever be
made. It consist of two frame mem
bers on each side of the car which
are Joined at the front and back by
cross members. This forms a box sec
tion frame. However, thla differs from
the box frame as It Is known In
America In that It does not have cross
membera sny place but at the front
and rear. This frame Is somewhat
strengthened, though, by a solid steel
floor that Is welded to the frame at
all points It can best be Illustrated
by afiylng that It corresponds to the
bottou of a shoe box, while the frame
members correspond with the sides
of the box this floor Is alao dust
proof. That Is a point which should
be very noticeable If one doe any or
much traveling over dirt roada. Then

Many Children Accident Victims
Out of the total of 86,000 persons
killed last year In automobile acci
dents In this country, nearly 1,500
of the victims were under Ave years
of age and around 3,800 others who
met death were between the ages of
Br and fourteen, according to fig
ures on the results of automobile ac
cidents compiled by the Travelers
Insurance Company,
Nearly 80 per cent of all the chil
dren killed under the age of Are
were on the streets as pedestrians,
the total of such casualties amount
ed to almost 1,200. Slightly more
than 75 per cent of the children be
tween the ages of five and fourteen
who were killed, or almost 2,900,
were also on the streets aa pedes
trians. Although many children are killed
because of playing in streets, the rec
ords for last year show that out of
a total of approximately 5,300 child
deaths there were only 1,800 that
resulted from playing In the streets.
More than 30,000 children under
the age of Are were Injured non
fatally In automobile accidents last
year, and 143,000 between the ages
of five and fourteen were also hurt
Around 25,000, or 64 per cent of the
child victims under the age of five,
were Injured while on the streets aa
pedestrians, and 93,000, or 65 per
cent of the children between the
ages of Are and fourteen also In
jured, may be classed as pedestrians.
.Altogether the automobile cas
ualty record last year in this coun
try Included the deaths of 5,290 chil
dren under the age of fifteen and the
Injuring of 182.210. While children
should be taught to take cars of
themselves, the large number of
child victims of automobile acci
dents does not speak any too well
of the manner In which many per
sons drive their cars. "Drive Care
fully, We Love Our Children" Is a
safety message which ought to be
always uppermost In the minds of
all motorists.
MEETINGS SLATED
Home Extension Unit members or

their guide patterns or make new
ones have been very well please a
with the project. At these meetings

construction lines are found to be
correct, a paper pattern la made
which can be used as a foundation
pattern for the Individual. The pro
ject Is not complete unless the cloth
pattern has been checked and a pa

Mr. Leveret t says: "Conditions in
the middle west are greatly im
proved. They told us at the factory
that they are not able to turn out
Chrysler airflows fast enough to
supply the present demand. There
were dozens of new owners taking
delivery of airflows at the factory
the day we were there.
Mr. and Mrs. Chllders averaged
16.6 miles to the gallon of gas on
the return trip in their new Chrysler
Airflow Imperial coupe. They visit

Grand Canyon and Flagstagg, Ariz.
They also drove through Texas, New
Mexico and Oklahoma.
Mr. Chllders says: "We drove
through all kinds of traffic in Chi
cago and over all kinds of roads
on the return trip and, the Chrysler
airflow performed perfectly. The
Chrysler overdrive Is the finest Im
provement ever made to an auto
mobile. The airflow Is the nearest
thing to an airplane ride.'

there are the Independently sprung
wheels, front and rear. In this par
ticular car a single transverse spring
la used In front and two trsnsverae
springs mounted side by aide in the
rer. This supposedly - gives a very
"soft" ride and greatly facilitates
high speed travel . This we bel leve
covers most of the engineering fea
tures pretty well but one would have
to really see an Illustration of the
chassis before they could understind
It at all.
Our first impression on oeeing the
Illustration of said chassis was "where
la the engine?" We wonder if anyone
else would hsve the same Impression.
The only feat urea of interest on the
interior of the oar are the front scats
and the ventilating system. The front
seat are merely inch-thick cushions
mounted on or around a steel tubing
frame this rimy be very comfortable
but we sre sure' we would prefer the I
more amply upholstered nests found
on American csra. The ventilating
system Is very remarkably similar to
that found on Oeneral Motors cars
which everyone knows.
