certainly a source of great pleasure for me to knoW that your efforts are to be increased in such large proror- tions. - The opportunity for real service te the men in our camps today, both in this country and overseas, can hard ly be estimated, and it is 8 source of much qualification to me to feel that our American people are responding so literally to the call for funds.
 Believe me, with very sincere good wishes foc your success.
 Most sincerely.

M. c, A., are doing a work for the men and boys in the service which I believe cannot be- so we'll done by any other means. This work is furnishing in 8 broad spirit of serviee the things which help most to keep the men true to their ideals, their families and their country.

 Impress your members with the fact that the Knights of Columbus is not asking anything for the organization, but that together with the Y. M. c. A. and the Y. NJ. H. IA, it is, simply an agency through which the government is working. Difference of religious belief is not considered by men who are in the trenches and the folks at home Should have no difference of opinions but all should support this work according to their ability to do so.
 It should be the duty of your execu- tive committee to, see that no person in your territory is overlooked. Give contribute to this fund, and any man or woman in your district-regardles of whether that man or woman is rich or poor-who does not subscribe in this campaign to the limit of their ability is unmindful of the duty they owe to their country in this fight for liberty.
 Try. and see that the capains and the members of the various teams en- ter the campaign with deterrnina tion to succeed. If that spirit prevails, I shall loch forward. when the week of tho campaign is closed, to receiving the Iheartening information that your coun- cii. with the ca-operation of the good people of the community, has tgone over the top" in 8 manner that is in keeping with the traditions and pa trietisna of your historic city. r Sincerely and fraternally yours, WILLIAM !.

KEROSENE IN A CARBURET0R
Practical Device offered by Leading
Manufacturer-Tred Out In
Foreign Market.

Motorists have realized for some
time that a shortage of gasoline was
inevitable at some future time and
while the increasing price of gasoline
has not been serious drawback to
the use of pleasure cars, has been
an item of moment in the operating
expense Of commercial vehicles OF
various kinds. A practical Kerosene
carburetor has been recently offered
by leading manufacturer that has
been in process of development for
several years and which was thor
oughly tried out in the foreign mar
ket before 1t was introduced for do
nestle consumption, according to Sci
entific American. The carburetor will
handle Kerosene, benzol, distillate or
any hydrocarbon with final boiling
point below GOO degrees. 1t can be
utilized on either commercial cars or
pleasure autos because 1t permits Of
flexible engine operation by throttle
control.

A fringe of skunk fur set in between

UNGUARDED DITCH A MENACE
Causes Many Automobile Accidents,
Says American Highway Associa-
tion In Recent Report.

The unguarded ditch at the side of
the road is a growing menace to motor
travel, according to the American
Highway association. Formerly, says
a recent report, when roads were used
only by horse-drawn vehicles, the deep
side ditch and the high, narrow en-
bankment were not particularly dam
gerous. Between the driver and the
horse there was enough combined in
telligence to avoid accidents at such
places.
But with the advent of the aut9mo-
bile the conditions have changed. If
car is forced off the hard road way on
to soft shoulders even the most skillful
driver will sometimes lose control of it.
In such cases there is a real danger to
the occupants of the car.
A record compiled by state authori-
ties In Iowa showed that 1853 cars
turned turtle In period of three
months.

who find the Chinese collar unbecom-

One of the best bits Of strategy on
the part of the designer of this frock
appears in the narrow, fiat sash, made
of the satin, that is placed at the nor
NAL waistline. 1t encircles the waist
and is crossed in the back with the
ends brought round to the front and
Topped over. They reach below the
knees and are finished with long silk
tassels. The chances are that occa-
sional snap fasteners about the waist
line hold them in place always. There
