AT THE PASTINfE.

George Barr McCutcheOn has fur
nished Peggy Hyland of the William
Fox forces, with one of the best stories
she has picturized this year. The
production is titled "COwardice
Court" and was shown for the first
time yesterday at the Pastime theater.
1t is a most excellent summer enter
tainment, with plenty of good comedy
and a liberal admiXture of thrills. The
scenes are largely out-of doors, in the
Adirondacks.
Miss Hyland plays the part of an
English girl who falls in love with a
rich young American with whom the
members of her own family are at
war. Her performance is one of the
most satisfactory of her career, ana
the picture as a whole probably the
most pleasing in which she has been
seen here. The young woman is driven
FROM home at night into a severe
storm, and some very convincing work
has been done in this scene by both
the star and the photographer. The
picture was made under the direction
of William G.. Dowlan and the cast
includes Katherine Adams, Burton
Law, Harry Lounsdale, Jack Living
ston and Arthur Hoyt,
The comedy reel THE Slave" with
| Billy West is also being repeated.

EXPORT AUTOMOBILES
United States Reputation for Guam
tity Production Brings Big
Sales in Foreign Countries

The United States has the reputa-
ton of quantity production" with
rough surface finish and appearance
but with better value and wearing
qualities, as compared with similar
productions of othercountries. .
This particularly holds good in
10 IoHnq uS!oIoJ oq4 4oG 'sIpo Ioloui
an American car often gets a better
car than the American purchaser Of
the samemodel. For practically all
cars that are equipped with battery
ignition for the American market
are equipped with the superior mag
neto ignition for export.
Why? Because the foreign motor
list will not accept substitute that
may save him few dollars in ini-
tial cost but deprives him of the ul-
innate economy, greater power, in
creased flexibility, and lower gas con-
sumption, that invariably go with
magnetic ignition.
The reason is that the magnetic is
self-contained, independent source
of ignition current. 1t has nothing to
do but furnish the spark for ignition,
and it does this better than any other
known means.
A battery is very fine and neces-
sary part of an automobile; without
it there would be no electric starting.
But the battery wears out; hence 1t
cannot be relied upon to furnish the
vital spark for ignition.
The magnetic, on the other hand,
outwears the car itself. For starting
and lighting, by all means have bat
terry, but for ignition the wise motor
ist has magnetic, not only on his
car, but also on his truck, tractor,
motorcycle, motor boat, or stationary
gas engine.
Tibet foreigner knows how to get
the best from the American manu-
facturers, and the well-informed AM
crican motorists will insist on the
same superior equipment and sa will
lingly pay the slightly increased in
itial cost-it's a highly profitable IN
Vestment.

NEWS ABOUT TIRES
Solid Tires Increase in Popularity
Motorists Like Tires That Are
interchangeable

Tire dealers in small towns are
showing an increasing tendency to
put in a line of solid truck tires.
This is largely due to the impetus
given to the motor truck industry
during the war period, and the de-
mand even in small towns for solid
tire service facilities. The most eX-
pensive part of the installation of the
line is the purchase of press, but
the opportunity for good business is
overcoming this difficulty.
Car owners appreciate a type Of
tire tread which makes it possible to
use the tire on either front or back
wheels. There come times when it IS
desirable to change the tires about,
and the owner regards it as import
ant to be able to make the change
without changing all round. Another
advantage is that it is necessary to
carry only one spare.
"The largest rubber plantations in
the world are now owned by the

gracious about running them.

HUNTING FOR BARGAINS
The result of the discussion was
that he and his neighbor decided to
pool their resources and do joint
buying. AS they both owned Fords,
the matter of buying on this side of
the town or that was of little concern
to them. They exchanged information
about bargains here and there, and,
as one of them was in the wholesale
line, he was in position to get deal
of inside information about the
state of the market and where to go
for this or that. In every city there
are Wholesale houses and even
manufacturers not supposed to do
any retailing, which have a back door
open for the lowly consumer who
comes in with cash in his fist, Be-
sides, there is an unwritten law of
courtesy, very widely, if not univer-
sally accepted, whereby an accredited
attache of wholesale house may
secure from any other, in almost any
line, retail purchase at a wholesale
price.
The two neighbors established reg
ular connections of this kind in GER
tain food stuffs, shoes, clothing, and
even went so far as to buy perishable
goods, especially during the canning
season, in this way.
In dealing with farmers, our cor
respondent says that he has had no
success. The city dealer always came
down in price when he demanded it,
but the farmer refused to do so. Then
too, ne found that the farmer often
charged more for his wares than the
same quality and kind of stock was
selling for in the city. So he came
to the conclusion that the farmer can
not be skinned" We venture to
say that he went out into the country
with the old fashioned idea that the
simple tiller of the soil was no match
for the city man and was surprised to
find the farmer as keen a business
man as himself. Many people have
had very good luck in dealing with
farmers. However, the writer recalls
a certain village in Wisconsin where
the storekepr used to send to Milwau-
kee for his strictly fresh eggs.
The object of this article is to
exploit the idea of opportune buying
rs means of making your Ford pay
part of its upkeep expense. 1t is a
good idea, and though there are
many kinks in it which must be work
ed out by the consumer, it will not
only be made to pay in the long run,
but will add business objective to
pleasure trips which will make more
interesting both business and pleas
ure.

GEORGE WASHINGTON ON

ent letters expressed his hope that
the Constitution for League of thir-
teen states might be ratified; many
of his remarks are extraordinarily ap-
plicable in the present discussion of
our ratification of the Covenant for
the League of Nations. "The Consti-
tuition that is submitted, is not free
from imperfection, but there are as
few radical defects in it7as could well
be expected, considering the hetero-
geneous mass of which the Convenfg
ton was composed and the diversity

Considering the enjoyment one gets
out of a Ford, day by day, the cost
of the investment and the upkeep are
very small items.
There is the sort of person who is
of such mathematical and penurious
frame of mind that he will carry out
his cost system to the extreme limit
of "Well, it cost me three cents to
make that HILL but, as a general rule
the Ford owner is content to resolve
his costs into lump sums for lump
distances. Is it not true that very
meticulous cost accounting is apt to
take a good share of pleasure out of
the pleasure drive? Though this
may be the case with the owner of
some cars, every good Ford booster
will say that, in the case of the Ford,
cost accounting is pleasure, and
the more detailed it is the more
satisfaction one gets out of it.
The following are the results of
costs gathered from large number
of users of Ford cars and show what
may reasonably be expected.

MAKES FORD PAY ITS UPKEEP
A correspondent writes that not only
is he making his Ford pay its upkeep,
fuel, interest and depreciation charg-
es, but he figures that the whole prop
osition will in the end mean profits
for him. AS soon as his car wears
out, he figures on turning it in and
getting a newer model, but, even at
that, he still figures on baalncing his
expenses.
Strange to say, he does not use his
car in his business at all, for he is
bookkeeper at a stated salary. Per-
haps the fact that he is bookkeeper
enables him to conduct with profit the
system he has used, but the system
itself is very simple.
1t was through a neighbor that he

 Men Declare It Is made
 quate; Breaking of the Ice
Owners Say Advance Is Maximum Offer
Even Slight Increase Offered
 Would Make It Necessary
 To Raise Price of Coal Per Ton, Mine Owners Assert

WASHINGTON, Nov 2O.-Though operators and miners of central con- petitive fields remained hard locked all day today in their negotiation for a new wage scale contract, prospects for an agreement that would settle the coal strike were considered brighter tonight than at any time since the strike was called.
 The operators offered to the min CTS representatives flat increase of Is cents ton on coal mined. and 20 per cent increase for day workers. John L. Lewis, acting president Of the United Mine Workers of Amer ica, outwardly stamped the cOnces- sion as wholly inadequate. but both sides plainly took the offer as a breaking of the ice and an opening for trading tomorrow.
 Meanwhile the government contin- ued to hold hands off and Fuel Ad- ministrator Garfield took no steps openly to ration or restrict coal con sumption.
 President Lewis. of the miners. after the close of the session. said he considered that the operators proposal had contributed nothing to the settlement of the difficulties" but at the same time indicated that miners were preparing to come down a degree in their demands for a six hour day and a 50 per cent increase in wages.
 "The operators are proposing something they know cannot be ac- cepted," he said. "The increase they would give they simultaneously ar range to take back in increased charges to miners for supplies. Then they haven't talked the question of hours at all We have many of our men who work nine and ten hours a day under present conditions, be- cause the present eight hour day in many mines is merely basic theory, and not an actual fact"
 Thomas T. Brewster, chairman Of the operators scale committee. re- fused to discuss the proceedings. but the compromise offer made by the operators was outlined more fully by his associates.
 The proposed wage advances are the absolute maximum to be offered. w. T. Guthrie, member of the opera tors wage scale committee. repre- senting western Pennsylvania, and George B. Harrington of Illinois. spokesman for the operators, said tonight.
