When Gasoline Runs Low,

In Farm and Fireside is an ingenious
suggestion for autoists whose gasoline
has run so low that they have trouble
in hill climbing.
One sometimes is caught out with a
low supply of gasolitie through having
to make long detours to avoid bad
roads or from other causes. The sup
ply can be made to stretch over this
emergency by adding denatured alco-
hol or kerosene. Occasionally there Is
sufficient gasoline for the ordinary lev
ell road. but not enough for an unex-
pected hill.
In this case the principle of pressure
feed can be applied. Screw the cap
down tight on the gasoline tank and
then sharpen match to ft the venti-
lating hole In the cap. Blow into this
hole as hard as possible and immedi-
ately plug with sharpened match.
Usually this will enable the driver to
make the hill without further trouble.
But if not he can turn the car around
and back uphill.

The Girl Who Drove

A Story For St. Valentines
Day
By SARAH BAXTER

"Grandpa, won't you tell us q valen-
tine storyT' said a miss of fourteen.
:.You told us story for Christmas,
and l think you might do the same
now that st. Valentines day has come
around"
The old gentleman cleared his throat,
the children gathered about him. and
he acceded to their request.
"St. Valentines day has changed
from what it was when l was q young
ster. 1t is now day for little chill
dren to send and receive valentines.
Il see no reason why the sending of
valentines when they are in good taste
should not be observed today among
those of the mating age. The only
objection is the abuse of the CUSTOM
but 1 admit that it is serious objec-
ton. There are special cases where
a valentine may bring two persons
together in a happy marriage. For in
stance, suppose young man admires
a. girl he does not know and has no
means Of knowing"
"Never mind all that, grandpa. We
want the story"
Il would not consider all that es-
sential had it not been for the change
that has come over the custom Of
sending valentines, warping it from its
original purity. However, l have no
more to say by way of preface and
will begin:
There was once upon a time a
young fellow-we'll call him jim
who lived in the country. He had
never had anything to do with girls
and knew nothing about them. He
was red headed and freckled, and
when he looked in the glass it seemed
to him he was SO homely that he
would have to live all his life without
a wife or children to love him. for no
girl would have him. So he said to
himself, I'll always keep away from
girls, because might fall In love with
one Of them, and in that case 1 might
die of q broken heart It seemed
hardly necessary to make such q reso.
luton, for Jim was never thrown in
with girls. and If he had been he was
too bashful to become at all eompan-
ionable with any Of them.
what was Jim's surprise one day
to receive valentine. It came in an
envelope same as you children
use now-covered with Cupids and ar
rows piercing hearts and was address.
ed to him in a girls handwriting. He
stared at the outside, for q time not
realizing that it was for him and won.
derfng It there was not some mistake
about it. Since he did not know a
girl how could girl send him val
entine? But there was his name writ
ten out In full, with his usual address
at the village, a mile away from the
farm. Still doubling, he opened the
envelope and took ont the prettiest
valentine you ever saw. In its center
was colored picture of a young man
and girl sitting In a bower, and the
very sight Of it made Jim's finger tips
Jingle. In each of the four corners
was a Cupid with bow and arrow,
and every arrow was aimed at the
couple In the bower. Jim has seen
many . valentine since, but they have
no such effect as this first and only
valentine he ever received when he
was young and was conscious that
with all his red hair and freckles and
unxain1y farm walk there was girl
n the world who thought enough Of
him to send him Z valentine. Today
valentines are to him nothing more
than cheap stamped piscss e paper

dent Monroe put this feeling In words.
Reduced to simple language the mes
sage was promise TO European
powers that we would keep our hands
off foreign territory and that we would
expect all European and Asiatic
nations to keep their hands off Ameri-
can territory-both in North and
South America. That in brief is the
Monroe Doctrine.
why did President Monroe choose
that particular time to send his mes
sage to e lgress and to warn the
foreign cns?" asked Joe.
"Becausc it was rumored that the
Holy Alliance was about to help Spain

colonies"

England" replied Uncle Harry

Uncle Harry Explains The Monroe Doctrine

they misunderstood the American
government in pronouncing the Mon
roe Doctrine. They became sus-
picious of the United States because
they feared that this country wanted
to keep the European. countries out
of Central and South America in order
that the United States, itself, might
expand southwards and send colonists
and perhaps by military and naval
power place those countries under its
control"
did the United States ever have
any such intention?' asked Jimmy.
Uncle Harry laughed. Certainly
not" he answered. THE United States
regards all the American republics as
a great family of nations whose in
terests are the same. II would be bad
for all of us if some great foreign
power got a foothold on the American
continent and used that foOthold as a
means to expand and grow more
powerful in the western hemisphere.
Such move of course would doubt
less result in war
"The United States is really then
the big brother in the family Of Amer.
ican nations, isn't it, said joe
yes" answered Uncle Harry, "and
the other nations are beginning more
and more to regard it as their big
brother. The United States has tried
not to do anything to make the ether
countries fear it and several of our
statesmen have visited the South
American nations and made speeches
and shown them that the United States
{ is sincere in its wish for their wei
fare"

"Twenty-one, altogether. Several OF
