yesterday in an explosion on United
States submarine chaser No. EOS. The
explosion occurred near Key West, Fla,

until early afternoon.
Undue air upressure or leaking gaso-

explosion. Clofer, machinist's mate,
and Frank c. Lenke of Urbana, ILL.,,

Clofer enlisted in the navy two years

Excelsior where he went through the

est in athletics, especially basket ball,
and was a member of several navy

ceived by his mother. Interment is
expected to take place at Excelsior but
arrangements have not yet been made.
Clofer is survived only by his mother.

In order to introduce the wonderful
combination carburetor lock, l will
place it on your car for $3.50. This
price will not continue long, as it
costs more to manufacture it.
l am now ready to take orders. You
can get the combination in three diff
ferent styles-A. B. and C. The
A style is made as close as to a sixty
fourth of an inch. The B style is
about one-eight of an inch and the
c style about one half an inch. The
A style no one has been able to open
without knowing the combination,
no matter how long they may try it..
Style c possibly can be opened If you
have lots of time and patience. Now
thief would hesitate to spend a long
time figuring out combination on a
car standing on the street, in a gar
age or anywhere in the country.
1t is a proven fact that If an auto
mobile thief cannot start a car at
once he will let it alone.
Another point is the stoppage >of
leaking. All loss of gasoline by leak
ing can be prevented by placing one
of the combination carburetor locks
on your carburetor. That will stop
the leak provided you close the COM
| bination.
