It should be remembered that it la necessary to prima the vacuum tank before the carburetion System will function strain. Thia la eserally done by removing the plus. on top ot the vacuum tank and filling the tank wtin gusoltne. Tha easle method, however, la after replenishing- the supply of gasoline In the feed tank, to close the choke on the dash, retard the aiuirk and advance the (Baolln throttle lever. Then thro on the switch and run the motor on the Marler for about a half a. minute; throw off the switch and after walllne for about three minutes. Mart the mo tor in the uaual way. Turning the motor over "with the choke dewed for half a minute form a vacuum in the system, and atarta the luunllne siphoning from the supply tank to the vacuum tank. It is neces sary to wait three minute in order to allow sufficient time for the vacuum Unit to fill Jtaeir. This procedure not jen only saves time, but also makes the filling more convenient If through aome unusual circum stance a valve spring; ahould break, flrit-aid" relief may be had by cut ting a waaher out of aome atiff ma teria) with a hole in the center large noufh for the valve etem to enter. Place thia washer between the two laaru of the broken valve spring. This Will prevent the broken spring from twisting together and will enable driv ing the car until a new spring can be Installed. It la always advisable to use tire chains whenever pavement and roads are In such condition as to make skid dink likely td happen In turning corn era, stopping and starting. But, the driver ahould bear in mind that chains should be removed as soon as it Is safe to drive without them. Ia putting chains on the rear tires, they should be fixed to the wheels with the hooks to the rear so that the for ward motion of the wheels will have a tendency to pull the chains tighter In the locks. It at sny time it is neces sary to reverse the wheels in order to (et out of a bad hole, the chains should be inspected to make certain that they have not become unhooked by the backward motion of the wheels. Small wire wrapped around the hook locks will often prevent chain: from loosening and becoming lost. Company U Local Distributor jih.ttheaccwlesarejurtaslmport- , t I ant as "the car themselves.

The short end projecting through can then be heated in the flame of a blow torch until It becomes red hot. . When this has been permitted to cool, It will be found that the temper has been drawn from the end of the saw, and It will be possible to drill a new hole in order to fasten the saw in the frame again. The potato protects the covered part of the saw from the action of the heat, nd in this way preserves the temper mobile accessory shop in.

Today a whirlwind campaign Is taking place in Upper Silesia between German and Polish partisans. It is accompanied by murder, corruption funds, used on a huge scale and band itry. Human life la bought and sold. The price for a grown man is 60,000 marks 7t in American money. European opinion is sharply divid ed on the question. Among the Allied nations there are grave differences of opinion on the justice and advisabil ity of depriving Germany of the rich coal resources of Upper Silesia. Cur tailment of German coal supplies now secured from this region, would serl ously cripple Germany's ability to pay indemnity. Broadly speaking there are three distinct viewpoints -in Europe regard- I ing Upper Silesia: Poland, with French support, is do ing everything in her power to cap ture the region. The Warsaw gov ernment for two years has conducted a world propaganda campaign en deavoring to show that while Ger many money and Industrial genius de veloped Upper Silesia today controll ing the economic wealth of the pro vince, the population, on the other hand. Is preponderatingly Polish. Fur ther, the Poles declare that without coal from Upper Silesia their country cannot prosper; cannot recover from In order to weaken the gigantic enemy across the Rhine that ravished Nor thern Franco during the great war. and that Imposed a crushing treaty on France in 1870, at tha same time wresting Alsace-Lorraine from, French control. Germany's viewpoint is briefly ex plained. Every German views with alarm the French move for partition of the Fatherland, and, in the case of Upper Silesia, giving a rich province to- Poland, a country of low cultural development. By a provision of the Versailles, treaty, Germany is permit ted to assist former Upper Silesians, now living in Germany, back to their native land for the forthcoming elec tion. Some 200.000 of these "emi grants" will vote obviously - against Poland. ' - Liberal opinion in England views with alarm the separation of Upper Silesia from- Germany. They see in such a move an Impoverishment of Germany that will absolutely forbid payment of war Indemnity. . Further they see a dangerous continuation of the present collapse of Europe. Europe," the liberals declare, is like an egg; it cannot be partly good and partly rotten." Today the indus trial collapse of Europe has reacted disadvantageous on England, being largely the cause of 1,500,000 unem ployed in the British Isles and one of worst trade depressions in all his tory. . The world can recover only as a unit France cannot prosper by the impoverishment of Germany," the British liberals declare. "Dismem berment of Germany; the separation of Upper Silesia and the lopping off of Bavaria and the Ruhr district, all three of which France Is, working, would be the crowning disaster. It would mean the complete disintegra tion of Europe." Thoylv AH N'on-refUlablo ,Kow.

C. Stevens Motor Company, t the auto show, fulfills the many new ex pectation to a new degree of -."iJ .'- men; ar.d satisfaction. Thia cir, It is decUtred, cno of the most, psr.'eot Jobs seen here. The long, sweeping, unbroken Iru of the llt-lnch chassis reflects tie nlmbleness and responsiveness of Its action and the unusual roadibility. The high, haughty hood com minds the road and heralds the inight power of the famoua Haynes mot r. Unlike the design of .the majority of cars, the Speedster ., has Indivld'ial fenders. Each front fender is equip ped with a special leather splash flap. The aluminum steps are also of the individual design, but yet are large enough for comfort in enterli.g and alighting. Six wire wheels are regular equip ment. Two of the wire wheels are carried f t the front one on each side. This method of carrying-and displaying the extra wheels. Is novel as well as being correct, according to the advanced mode. The wide, swing ing doors open to an inviting com partment, where the driving controls are conveniently arranged. The two- passenger seat Is soft and resilient, because of the use of flexible body conforming springs. There is also an arm rest at each side of the seat. Beautiful Spanish leather with its characteristic pattern Is used for the upholstery. The all-aluminum wind shield is rakiahly low and tilted. Shurelock wind deflectors, as stand ard equipment, add greatly to the driving comfort in many ways. Two rear vision mirrors signal both rider and driver, enablying the occupants to see to the rear at all times. In the rear deck of the Speedster there are two large carry in a spaces. Directly back of the seat in the rear deck is the smaller compartment with a door on each side. The main carrying space Is unusually large and will ac commodate traveling bags, and a great many other bulkier things which It has heretofore been Impossible to take on account of lack of room. As a finishing touch to the beauty of the Speedster, Haynes engineers have designed an attractive top made of khaki, that cosily shelters the riders. The Speedster, too, has the new metallic Instrument board, which is pne of the outstanding features of the new 1K1 cars. To start, the Speedster Vou simply depress the small left lever on the Instrument board, and the velvety-powered Haynes engine, with its . dependable force and strength In ' reserve. Is quickly in ' motion. - The Speedster, which Is mounted upon the Haynes chassis, is manufactured in both the six and twelve cylinder styles. There Is considerable disappoint ment among automobile fans of Pen dleton owing to the failure of the Kew Haynes Fifty to arrive on time for the auto show. However this new creation of the Haynes company will reach here by April 1. , : Dispatches from Ireland say ' hat lira. Muriel - MacSwiaoy i above), widow of tho late Ter rene MacSwlney lord mayor of Cork, is to wed Art O'Brien (below), secretary of the ptot SaU-DetermluaUao LeagM to the larger Haynes car, the new Haynes Fifty has a 121-Inch wheel base and Is built In only one body style the five passenger touring car. The power plant of this new Haynes car is the famous Haynes light six motor which assures plenty of speed and power under all conditions. The sturdy chassis Is characteristically Haynes with all the rugged xtrength that the name Implies. It will sell for 11985. At TO CIIA1X PULL This II a device to give the car trac tion when the wheels are slipping in mud or heavy sand. It consists of two steel pins which are sunk tnto the ground and which have at their upper ends an anchnr plate for gripping the end of an ordinary tire chain. An at tachment secures the other end of the tire chain to the rear wheel, and causes the wheel when revolved to mount the chain and climb out of the mud.
