Oil distribution is effected by dippers on the lower

The 1921 Dodge engine uses a special type of con-
stant clearance, aluminum alloy piston. The chief
factor for consideration from a lubrication standpoint
is, that they result in much lower piston head tem-
peratures. thus minimising carbon formations and ta
turn, the knocking or "pinging" tendency of mi engine.
For this reason. Gargoyle Mobilonl "A" of a richer
lubricating character than Gargoyle Mobiloll Arctic,
can be used in these engines to advantage during
summer. This change in pleton design counteracts
the conditions which in the previous models mads
the engine sensitive to carbon formation.
During summer Gargoyle M obi lot 1 “A" should be
used in the 1988 models: In all earlier models Gargoyle
Mobiloll Arctic should be used.
A moving picture company in
the United States proposed to
film the hunt, turning loose a
band of feathered Ctee Indians
to bring down the buffalo with
bow and arrow. The government
refused, pointing out that with
present-day Indians the arrow
is no longer a sure weapon of
death and that the buffaloes
would suffer cruelly from their
wounds.
