at NIL makers Of poppet valve motors,
regardless of price, horsepower or cy-
Under displacement, to place their mo-

OF the Moline-Knight.

During the Coliseum show in Chi

Determined to 'unearth' some MAX

facturer's written consent to allow his
motor to be tested.

Is on a moro sound financial basis and
In better condition than ever before.
True, there have been number of
failures, but in nearly every instance
the firms affected have been those with
out sufficient working capital or whose
manufacturing methods have not al
lowed them to meet the keen compe-
tition which is part Of this industry.

the instructions of the Metropolitan
Chapter to establish a mixed choir,

year Father Konen had got together
sixteen men and fifty children and
had commenced his big work For
twenty-five years he remained at the
head of the choir Pastor Johannes
Schultz, head of the choir for the past
two years, has done great work to-
