TOTTENVILLE, August 1S.-The
residents in the vicinity of Sprague
avenue are much wrought up because
of the fact that within the past ten
days a nonresident real estate firm
has brought great quantities of lum-
Der and other building materials to
land which it owns on the avenue and
has started the erection of a dozen or
more, small, one story houses. The
lumber mas been taken from some
army camp in New Jersey and he
houses in course of erection are any

people feel that it is a great pity that
some of the better Tottenville streets

type of speculative building.

F0rinstance. A fellow was driving
sweetly along one day when his en-
CINE was seized with a fit Of cough

coma.
An informal diagnosis showed the

insisted the driver. A mechanic went
with him, cranked her a time or two,
added the wires, monkeyed with the
distributor and said, ''She needs a
new coil, I'd better tow her in"
But Mr.. Driver had a coil rushed
down from where they sold them,

Towing Her to Life

Sometimes a balky engine can be
started by having another car pull
it q half block with the gears in sec
ond speed.
The battery may be down, the en-
CINE cold and cranking too slow to
get an explosion. Or there may be a
faulty connection in the ignition sys-
tenn which prevents a strong enough
spark reaching the gasoline charge
to overcome the resistance of a dead
engine.
There may be current enough to
run on once the engine is started.
There's where the friendly tow does
the work.
But trace down the origin of your
trouble at the first convenient stop.

BrIckmakeTs Should Aid
the Build Now Program

Speaking before the Congress of
the American Face Brick Association
and acknowledging his election to
head that organization during the re-
building of after-the-war business. f.
w. Butterworth outlined the pro-
gram for the coming year succinctly
in the following words:
ION looking over the situation and
cutting out all bunk 1t seems to me
that this association. for the year
1919, has two detectives. The first
is to so arrange the face brick in
dustry that upon a resumption OF
normal business the industry will Sc
cure it's proper proportional part 81
the business that there is. This Is
objective No. /. The second, 1t seems
to me, Is that this association Is Ia
do everything in its power in a legi-
innate and legal way to prevent
price generalization until that oc-
ours"
Obviously, the Build Now move
| ment which is being urged the coun-
try over will bring the building busi-
ness back to normal long before Mr.
utterworth anticipated 1t when he
made the above statement early II
the year.
1t is to the interest of brick man
