The Long-Stroke Engine---
An Explanation

   The long stroke engine must economize in the use of gasoline, and we will try to make it plain--very plain--just why. You know whether you would prefer to fill a gallon crock or a quart measure (if you. had to pay for it). The gallon crock is the large bore, short-stroke motor--the tall quart .measure represents the medium bore, with the long stroke--both must be filled with gasoline in automobile work.

   Of course, the gallon crock has a greater capacity than the quart measure, but the greater capacity does not produce proportionately greater power. For example, you know that your revolver will not shoot so far nor penetrate so deeply as your rifle, using the same cartridge. In firearms we call it the length of barrel, and explain it by saying we get the benefit of the whole expansion of the gas. In automobiles it is the same thing, but we call it the length of stroke. In a rifle we get results because there is but one direction for the gas to expand--the length of the barrel--in automobiles, if there is but one direction in which to expand, and that dimension is sufficiently long, we get the full power.

White Motor Economical

   The above tells the whole story of the remarkable performance of White gasoline cars and trucks, from a standpoint both in power and fuel consumption.

   The four cylinders of the White motor are more nearly rifle barrels than any others, consequently less of the explosive medium is required to produce the high power rifle results. One other advantage follows: because White motors are not large and unwieldy. White cars are of moderate size and weight, consequently go over the roads more easily and are easier upon the tires and other items of maintenance.

COOPERS' CHIEF LAWYER SPEAKS.

Defence Fires Its 16-Inch Gun With
Telling Effect-Best Criminal
Attorney in Tennessee Assail
the Prosecution.

[Cooper v. State, Tenn. 1909]

   Nashville, Tenn., March 12.--The sixteen-inch gun of the defence's batteries was trained upon the State today with telling effect, when Judge James McFerran Anderson began his argument in the trial of Col. D.B. and Robin Cooper and John D. Sharp for the murder of former United States Senator E.W. Carmack. Judge Anderson, who is considered the ablest criminal lawyer in the State, is chief counsel for defence. Strangely enough he was a close personal friend and political supporter of Senator Carmack. Although in bad health and worn with the strain of ten weeks of active work his speech today, instead of dimming his reputation, has added only lustre to it.

   Anderson is not a dramatic orator. He adopts no theatrical devices. He does not speak in metaphors nor indulge in sentimental appeals. Only once did he refer to Col. Cooper as "the old soldier" and not once did he appeal to the sympathies of the jurors. He boldly disclaimed any idea of pleading that any editorial or speech could justify the slaying of Carmack and declared that his clients' case rested solidly and alone upon the first law implanted in all living beings--the law of self-preservation. Then he boldly plunged into a dissection of evidence and an application of law and startled his hearers by solemnly asserting that Robin would have been justified in killing Carmack before he did.

   He claimed that Col. Cooper, after having been assailed in print and upon the platform, had a right to seek out his defamer any place he might find him and demand that these assaults stop. He claimed further that Robin had a right to go with his father, and both of them had a right to go armed for their own protection if they believed that their protestations and demands would lead to an assault upon them.

   Judge Anderson declared that this was the law, that he quoted it merely to show how strongly the courts protect the right of self-defence, and to make manifest Robin Cooper's reluctance to shoot until he had himself been shot....
