him your rabbit?'

suggested:
"Td rather give him father!"

TRIANGLE STARS IN
 EXCELLENT FEATURE
 AT 0RPHEUM THEATRE
Norma Talnaadge and Fully Marshall Play Again This Evening in "The Devils Needle" at Popular House.

In The Devils Needle Triangle drama to be seen again at the Orphe- um theatre, Norma Talmadge and Fully Marshall are co-starred, and the latter is seen in the kind Of part in which he achieved his greatest fame on the speaking stage-that of nor phine fiend.
 It was in Clyde Fitch's last play. "The City" produced on Broadwoy several months after his death, that Marshall appeared as victim of the devils needle" and gave such mar velous impersonation that on the op- ening night several women tainted and had to be carried from the audi ence. His individual work was more largely responsible for the success of 'The City" than any other one feat ure of the play.
 In ''The Devils Needle" written by Chester Withey and Roy Somerville, Marshall makes his first appearance on the screen in the role of d dope victim. He appears as David Stanley, an artist of note. Rene, his favorite model, played by Miss Taimadge, is child of poverty, and through evil associations in her early girlhood has acquired the morphine habit. This is one thing she has never told Stanley, the other being her love for him.

girl, visits Stanley's studio with her fiance, Hugh Gordon. She falls in love
 with the artist, breaks her engage ment to Gordon, and marries him. Rene, controlled by evil impulses when she finds the artist in love with
 another woman, induces him to try the needle" as spur to his artistic inspiration. The habit fastened upon him. Stanley sinks lower and lower after his marriage, until his career is ruined and his wife's heart broken. z Seeking to rescue her husband from an opium dive, the girl is kidnapped and in peril of her life, wien Rene, realizing the horror she has wrought, comes to the rescue and succeeds in
 saving the wife from her peril and the husband from the deadly habit, which she herself has overcome after witnessing its frighriul effects on the man to whom she has communicated

Lightweight Farm Tractor.

The Allis- Chalmers Manufacturing
company. Milwaukee, claims for its
tractor that 1t can work in any ground
that can be cultivated by horses. This
is because Of its comparatively light
weight and broad-drive wheels cou-
pied with a two-cylinder opposed en-
gine with cylinders having a bore 5A
inches and stroke of seven inches.
Weighing but 4,s00 pounds. this To-
1S-horsepower tractor, as 1t Is styled.
is of sturdy construction and yet is
one of the lightest farm tractors
made. Construction Is simple and all
parts are easily accessible, the whole
tractor being so designed as to min
imize the operators labor.
In plowing, this tractor has the
power Of six horses and will operate
either two or three plows. according
to the condition of the soil being
plowed. The frame is a one-piece
steel casting so there are no joints or
rivets. The greatest length of the
tractor, overall Is eleven feet, eight
inches, height six feet, three inches.
Power is transmitted to the drive
wheels thru enclosed gears running
In oil. Eigh-tension magnetic ignition
Is used and cooling is by centrifugal
pump. The clutch Is a two-shoe ex-
panding type.-Motor Age.

Watch Your Engine Valves.

II your engine Is losing power look
to the condition of the valves.
II the engine back fires they open
too early.
II the engine Is sluggish and over
heats they open too late.
After repeated grinding valves be-
come lowered in their seats and the
clearance between the lower end Of
the stems and tappets must be ad-
justed accordingly. Too much clear
ance will make the valves noisy and
open too late and there will be no
snappy action to the engine.
To pick out the noisy valves make
tool out Of brass, feathering one
end. With engine running slip the
tool between the valve stem end and
tappet, adjusting screw, and II the
noise ceases obviously that valve has
too much clearance.

All vessels of the service have been

"have In the past, by unselfish devo-

always been done, their willingness
demonstrated throughout the service

statement written by Samuel Comp

THE organized labor movement"
said the statement, has always been
fundamentally opposed to compulsion.
THE labor movement stands firmly
by the voluntary principles. We de-
clare that at no time,has a voluntary
institution been given a real effec-
tive and conclusive test. Until such
a test shall have been given there is
no good reason for abandoning the
principle which was born of the
spirit Of 1TT6. and which has enabled
us to establish the ideals and the ira
ditions that have given this Republic
meaning as country, free. efficient.
and capable of meeting any conditions
or emergencies"
