Waste Auto Oil to Help Solve

may soon be a means of helping solve
the fuel question, in the opinion of ex-
perta. Already gnnige owners in an east
ern city are mixing thia worn-out lubri
cant with fuel oil and burning it to heat
their establishments. Experiments are
now under way to determine the possi
bility of using this refuse in oil burner»
for dwellings. In one state alone, it is
estimated fifteen million quarts of this
sulistance, equivalent to 15,000 tons of
coal, are thrown away yearly. Gaso

Tom Kendall could do well. One
was to shave his father on Sunday
mornings and holidays; the other
to press the old man’s trousers once
a month. Tom’s father, John, was
a back woodsman in the hills out
side of Lynchburg, Va. His mother
and sister had been burned to
death In a forest fire. Ho was
scarred and partially crippled In
tho same flames.
In 1904 when Tom.was 15, his
father was killed. Tom made his
way on foot to Richmond where
he secured employment as a talley
boy In the freight yards of the
Southern Railway. He was paid
$5 a week and was allowed to
sleep in the rear of a locomotive
shop. Two years later with (i»tl
he had saved from his scanty earn
ings he laid in a stock of candy,
cigars, magazines, fans and gum
and was permitted to sell them on
passenger trains. Trainmen taught
him to read and write and by the
time ho was twenty-one he had
educated himself, equivalent to the
first year in high school. Inci-
dcnnlly he had saved (1,425.
With this money he went to New
York. He opened a small tailor
shop on Broadway. In one year he
built up a trade that encouraged
him to open a larger shop.
Just before the world war he
moved to Montreal where he opened
a still larger tailor shop. On tho
