The Endeavour couldn’t take it. - Chasing a Rainbow has ever proved futile. : The endeavors. of the Endeavour were without avail. As a rule when you chase something you make it go faster. “The Endeavour should have known - better, in the first place, than trying to chase a Rainbow.

In proposals the understanding is that the lowest bidder gets the job, but when the! bids are identical, there is automatically no lowest bidder and the bids should be re- submitted as a matter of fairness, instead of resorting to a cheap form of casting the | die to decide a «winner.

This action of the city council is just | and fair, if carried out impartially, pro- | vided the assessments are eorrect and just. | An effort to make it so is apparent in the | instructions given the tax collector that be- | fore issuing a license he is to require of the | person applying for such license to file un- | der oath a statement of the value of the} property or the amount of the capital | stock. The license fee is to be based on a| proper valuation of the stock, capacity of production or other contingency. How-} ever, it is going to be a difficult matter to} base the amount of the license on these stipulations as the capacity of production, if determinable, is not a criterion on which | to base a license and the word contingency | takes in a lot of territory. But there is no doubt that if differ- ences arisé they will be’ smoothed out to thé satisfattion of those concerned. A Suggestion has been made in which 1 The Citizen concurs heartily that those persons or firms to whom the city is not in debted be the first required to pay their ; licenses. It also appears business-like that | j the city first pay its own obligations be-j j fore threatening to fine or incarcerate | those persons to whom it is indebted, or at } least credit the account with the amount ! of license due. coliascamaaay MOTOR FUEL SAVING The pocketbook of every motorist in America will be benefited by changes be- ing made in automobile engines, according | to Charles B. Bohn, president of the Bohn | Aluminum and Brass Corporation, quoted in a recent periodical. “With mines! changes in present engimes.we have . ob- tained a tremendously greater output with superior fuel economy, says Mr. Bohn. “The improvements lie in better combus- tion chamber design permitting higher compression without spark or gas knock, and higher engine speeds permitted by. opening up the entire breathing system of aluminum cylinder heads and proper com- bustion chamber design. “These improvements during the next two years will result in the saving of mi lions of dollars annually to the motoris' of America. We have combustion cham- ber forms perfected which permit of higher | compression without using anything but i standard gasolines of good quality.” The average person does not realize t that one- third of the fuel value in the gaso- | line tank is {renerally thrown away through | théradiator. Although'this cannot be eli- minated, a ‘more scientific arrangement of | the cooling, particularly of the cylinder | head, and by higher compressions and i more complete combustion, can control it | in '‘a’manneg to reduce heat losses. Technical details are of interest only | | to engineers, but the results are of vital | | importance they | materially to every car affect hi owner, as pocketbook.
