The operator Of a tractor who
wishes to get the most work out of
his machine and at the same time pro-
long its life should give particular
attention to the matter of correct lu-
Lrication. The Stanard Oil Company
is doing splendid work in educating
tractor operators to the use of the
correct grade of Zerolene for each
particular engine and also in the best
method Of taking care Of the lubri-
eating system. The company has a
Board of fabrication Engineers
whose business it is to solve lubricat.
ing troubles and to give advice re-
garding correct fabrication. The
company's salesmen are always glad
to help out and are constantly in
touch with the operators Of tractors.
In addition to this, literature has
been prepared giving detail lubricat-
ing instructions for every make OF
tractor In this way the company is
trying to help operators get the
greatest efficiency out of their equip

Many operators who have taker
advantage Of this valuable service
have found that they can now gel

Armour says he bought his first
pair of new shoes in three years last
week.
Rosenwald, whose company owns
a shoe factory or two, hasn't taken

All of which hasn't anything to do
with limousines. You can bet your
bottom dollar that Armour and the
rest of them "half-sole" their limou-
sines too.
Men with money always refuse to

CALL FOR FORMER N. F. A.
 WARRIORS TO HELP ELEVEN

Coach Mckay has succeeded in ar ranging a game for Tuesday, Oct. 2S. with a super football eleven explained by Horace CoyIe. we'll known to local football fans in several states.
 The idea in arranging this game is to prepare the Academy men for the big Bulkeley game at New London, Nov. l, by putting so powerful a team 'aganst them that Bulkeley will appear tame in comparison.
 The Alumni are doing this for their Alma Mater and will receive no rec ompense except the happiness derived from the knowledge of having served their school.
 Out<ide of the Bulkeley game this should be the biggest drawing card of the season for the Alumni win have in their ranks several former college stars and few dark horses who will undoubtedly spring a surprise on the spectators.
 Captain Coyle will use Eddie Mur- ray at half back. Eddie was half back on the Trinity team when Trinity was knocking them all dead. Chick Stan ley will be a fulIback or at left. half.
