BARGAIN HUNTERS TROUBLES.
Motor Car Dealer SAYS Second-han nd
"Buys" Are Expensive.

Those who go bargain hunting and
buy secondhand automobiles very often
fail to figure into the cost Of such bar
gains the expense Of replacing the shoes
with new ones" remarked a well-in-
formed motor car dealer, who has fol-
lowed the business for many years.
More likely than not all four tires
have to be shifted shortly after the new
owner begins to make use of his bar
gain. The expense is anywhere from 800
up for such an item, but the buyer, as
cribing this to the general cost of MAIN
tanning his car. forgets that he should
rather charge 1t against the first cost
of the automobile.
There are other small things that
very often make the buying of used
car not so great a saving. after all For
instance, should the car come without
complete equipment and be shy top.
speedometer, and other matters, as well
as spare tire. the new owner may
spend $500 or 500 extra before he has run
the machine much, and at that on
things he must have.
But he will always say that he bough
his car for the price he paid for thu
machine alone, not realizing that in most
cases with a brand-new car he would
certainly have got four new tires and
all needed equipment"

The competition committee at its hrst
meeting adopted as a tentative pro-

change, as conferences will be held with
leading men In the trade and their
views incorporated into the programme
1t is planned to start the motorcycle
events at II q. m. instead OF p. m as
previously, thus allowing the conclusion
of these events before the time for the
beginning OF the automobile events, and
ohviating any cutting down of distances
as was necessary last year through lack
of time to run them. This will allow
the starting of the automobile races at
2:30 o. m, in ample time for their con-
clusion before p. m.

Style and her latest Partisan creation
are about to introduce some important
automobile innovations.
The writer Of the letter is a well-known
woman motor enthusiast. who prefers to
do her own driving rather than employ
chauffeur, and who chooses open cars
rather than the coupe. Part Of her letter
Is as follows:
The Bulgarian blouse bids fair to call
for some changes in motor car body de-
sign. Since the advent Of this conceit In
woman's attire, there have been COM
plants coming from women who drive
open cars because OF the lack of protec
ton from the wind. The blouses. you
know. are loose about the bottom. and
the wearer finds the wind set up by the
motion Of the machine uncomfortable.
Then, too, the full bottom Of the blouse
is prone to fly up about the arms and
hands, interfering with the steering.
THE best remedy for this situation that
can see now Is to make the dash and
foredoors of open cars higher, and this
further protect women drivers from the
wind This or some other expedient will
have to be employed, for the Bulga<ian
blouse remains in favor, and 1t Is gener-
ally we'll known that the woman will de-
mand changes in the cars they drive, or
even put up with many discomforts.
rather than be out of style. So 1t seems
to me that the manufacturers will have
to prove their gallantry by providing
deeper bodies in order that women Gus
toners may drive fashionably clad and
still in comfort"

strength might be well saved and the
feet rested by taking the pressure on

One way to save the dishes is to use
a damp cloth and dry one in the
dining-room to wipe dishes that are
used for foods which dare not be much
soiled
If you scorch dish OF food when
cooking, scrape It out and add a little
soda, with a pint or less of cold wa

food can be removed without scratch
ing the dish.
When an obstinate spot of scorched

This scrapes without injuring the sur

There Is no economy in using old
or worn-out tools or utensils A
leaky pail, which leaves its trail wher-
ever it is carried, is worse than poor
economy.
DO not bang or gouge the hands and
fingers using the stove iron or
piece of wood for a hammer
Have a small egg beater which will
beat an egg in cup. Get good small
wooden spoons for stirring and mix

never get hot when used in the dishes

Have soap shaker for dish-wash-
ing; in this every scrap of laundry

Good sharp knives for pairing and

THE SUPERIOR FOLK
BY BERTON BRALEY.

Let's get together and tell ourselves
How superfine we are.
Let's perch way up on our lofty shelves
And gaze on lofe from afar.
Let's look with scorn on the common
herd
Who toll at a useful job.
Let's speak OF art as "A magic word
And sheer at the busy mob.
Let's speak Of faith as an outworn
thing,
OF love as a creed that's dead.
At everything simple and plain well
fling
barb with a poisoned head:
Let's jest at honor and sheer at law
And ChOrtle at truth as rot
Till people murmur I'VE never saw
Such a liberal-minded lot"
And while we jabber and sneer and
Smirk
And our words OF wisdom fall
The world will trudge To its daily work
And never Will care at all!

Is 1T TRUE?

The so-called citizens movement is
ostensibly based on the hypothesis
that South Bend is a corrupt commu-
nifty; that its people are more wicked
than those Of any other city; that it's
officials are grafters; that it's atmos-
phere is so poisoned with the exuda-
tons OF vice that il is dangerous for
the young to breathe it.
The promoters OF this movement
would have Us believe that South Bend
has Sodom and Gomorrah faded for
immortality. RIGHTEOUSNESS. extrava-
gance sinful unrest, the pursuit Of
folly. the skeleton in the family closet
and the debauchery Of the young.
They would have US believe that un-
less the so-called citizens ticket is
elected South Bend cannot be saved
from a rain Of FIRE and ashes. and that
the few moral. upright people they
seem 20 think we have will be obliged
TO leave TO save themselves.

Ask yourself the question. good citi-
zen. and answer it for yourself.
Remember the many moral infiu-
ences that are thrown about the young
in South Bend. remember the hundred
churches that are not large enough TO

associations. the numerous societies
for religious and mental culture, the
unsurpassed school system. the thous-
ands OF attractive and happy homes,
