KEPT WARM
FROM TAP ON POLE
Canadian Electric Light Company
Has Unusual Plan to Accommo-
date Autoists.

Although this is not the time of the
year to talk about keeping a radiator
warm. yet it is not too early to mention
very clever idea adoped by the cleo
tric light company of London, On
tario. Canada. Perhaps the plan
could be worked out by many of our
own cities. and now is the time to
bring it to their attention, suggests
Motor Life.
Current taps have been installed on
electric light poles at convenient
points throughout the Canadian city,
by means of which the radiators of
automobiles are kept warm while
standing outdoors in the cold of winter
Any one wishing to take advantage
of the electric current for heating the
radiator while his car is left stand
ing pays an annual fee to the electric
light company and receives a kew
which enables him to use the current
taps.
The customer also receives a license
number. which is tied to the connect
ing cord of his electric heater SO that
the inspector of the electric light
company can see whether or not au-
thorized parties are using the plugs.
The consumer. of course must Dro-
vide his own electric radiator heater
The idea is one which has great pos
sibilities, especially in localities
which undergo great cold in the win

Am | seeing things?" queried a
District motorist the other night as
he came out of local theater and
surveyed what had been his well
equipped car. but which looked then
as if hurricane had struck it,
During his brief stay in the theater
thieves had stripped the car OF prac-
tically everything that could be
taken off. These articles included
the spotlight, mirror, bulbs out of
the flashlights and dashlight covers.
clock, two tires and tools valuable
papers and goggles out of the pock-
cts of the car. The thief or thieves
had accommodatingly left him his
automobile which was something to
be grateful for.
This is by no means an uncommon
occurrence on the streets of Wash
should be taken by the motorists and
police department to put stop to it
once and for all
OF course, it is an unusually bold
thief who will take the time to strip
a car as completely as the aforemen-
toned, the majority of them being
content to thoroughly rifle the poc>
cts and letit go at that
Others Report LOSSES.
One motorist reports that he had
the pockets of his car completely
emptied while he was eating dinner
the other night. the car being in front
of his house the entire time, in
thickly- populated portion of the city.
Another tells of the loss of tire,
the tire being taken off one of the four
wheels on the ground. This enterpris-
ing thief had evidently come along in
another car, pulled up alongside, ad-
mired the brand new tire, lacked up the
car-and good bye tire.
If any one had questioned him he
would, undoubtedly, have said that he
was from some service station and had
been sent to get the tire, and if the real
owner had come out the thief would, of
course, have, .apologized and explained

that he had been sent to repair the same
make of car in that vicinity
Many of these unpleasant experiences
undergone by motorists are never re-
ported to the police, the owners of the
cars presumably deciding that, inasmuch
as nothing of any great value has been
taken. it was not worth the attention of
the police
But it is just this laxity on the part
of motorists that causes this kind of a
petty thief to thrive
Not Likely to Attract Attention.
How many men on the streets would
question man if they saw him going
through the pockets of car? Probably
not one in hundred unless they hap
pened to know the owner of the car in
question, and even they would hesitate
for fear that the owner might have
sent out for something in his car
OF course the average man does not
carry anything of much value in the
pockets. articles ranging from TOOLS
goggles, books. maps and papers be-
ing about all. but to lose these things
periodically is exasperating to a de-
gree.
Possibly the only solution of the
problem is to have small lock at
tached to each pocket. This can cas-
lily be accomplished by having a slit
made in the leather, which will fit
small lock can be fastened
1t does seem too bad that the mo-
torist. besides the constant dread Of
having the car itself stolen, no mat
ter what kind of locking device he
has used, has also to worry about all
the equipment on the car
1t may become a common thing in
the future to see headlights with
small chains on them. spotlights the
same, tires with enormous locks, and
even chains on the seat cushions
Thefts Should BE Reported.
Every case. big or small. should be
reported Immediately to the station of
the police precinct in which you live and
the sooner the better. While you NAV
not get back your stolen articles, the
constant reporting of cases will bring
the matter to attention of the police
and public, which will make the no
lice more active and may make the
thief little more wary

PRODUCES NEW IDEA
IN MOTOR BUILDING
Inventors Improvement May
Rev0Iuti0nize Combustion
Engine Industry.

An Italian inventor of the name of
Severe Campofregoso is credited with an
improvement in automobile engines
which may revolutionize the combustion
engine industry The motor has been
patented by the inventor in the United
States, Great Britain, France and other
countries, and was examined by a COM
pany of British engineers, who Judged it
most highly and wished to acquire the
patent rights for it in all countries, ac-
cording to advices just received at the
Department of Commerce
The motor is built without valves and
cam shafts; has power four times as
has complete absence of vibrations, fuel
as economy and may be produced at low
cost.
Its chief feature appears to be the pc
cullar manner in which the explosion of
the motor and the resulting stroke of
the pistonS is used to actuate the intake
of compressed mixture and the exhaust
of the exploded gases. The motor dis
penses with carburetor and the flow of
the mixture is regulated by the operator
through intake openings in the cylinder
heads below the highest point reached
by the piston. AS the piston is depress-
ed on the firing stroke the pressure
takes in the mixture through a number
of ports in the cylinder walls and the
onrushing new mixture dispels the ex-
faust gases through ports higher up in
the cylinder walls
A big advantage claimed for the mo-
tor in view of the present world short
age of gasoline and it's almost prohibit
tive cost in Europe is the fact that the
motor will run well on minimum charge
of the mixture. There is no carbonization
possible, and the claim is made that a
four-cylinder motor with ordinary size
pistons will develop 1.500horsepower.

VALVES FIRST GRINDING.
Machine Likely to Be Less Fuss,
After Run of 1900 Miles.

Because most motor car manufac-
turers advise using generous
amount of oil in the new engine for
the first 500 miles, or until the new
power plant has chance to get well
run. in" the chances are that the
owner will need to grind the valves
of his new engine oftener than he
steady operating basis, says Motor
Life.
Don't think that because the valves
get pretty dirty at first and require
attention that the motor is going
to be so fussy always. Give it
chance to get accustomed to it's life
work before criticising it. Every
body knows that car which has
been run about 1900 miles is a better
car than one which is brand-new and
has never been off the salesroom

DIXON VISITS

Republican CANDIDATE for Gov
ernor Talks to Small House
at Orpheum Last Week.
Dixon Was Accompanied
By Nelson Story, Jr., Can
didate for Lieut.. Governor.
DlXON'S RECORD
BAD HANDICAP

Senator Dixon visited Plentywood
last week and delivered his usual IT,
rade and slander about the farmers
of North Dakota. His audience was
very small, made up of the business
element of the town and few
leaguers, making a crowd of about a
hundred. The audience received him
with very little enthusiasm, as it
seems that most Of the rabid anti
leaguers are suspicious of him be-
cause Of his past record and his ef-
forts to get the Nonpartisan League
endorsement last spring.
Sen. Dixon was accompanied by
Nelson Story, Jr., the man who was
convicted and removed from the Of
fee Of County Commissioner of Gal
latin county for stealing county funds
by means Of collecting illegal fees,
who is the Republican candidate for
Lieut.. Governor. Mr.: Story made a
few remarks about the awful farm
ers, whom he called bosheviki and a
lot Of other terrible sounding names
and lowed that the state would 90
.to~t the.4 hsM M.ax0aNs unless. bossa and lhis
band are elected. ET
From here the candidates went to
Scobey, where they held another
meeting, and from there went to Av-
ondale where the farmers heckled
Dixon on Montana taxes until the
Senator quit talking and pulled out
for Glasgow.

grown tired Of the abuses piled upon
them by their state government in
thwarting their expressed will. They
had had their pockets picked for fif-
ty years, the government assisting.
I'll explain it. The North Dakota
farmers used to sell their wheat to
the grain elevator men and in check
ing up they found that five times as
r.uch No. / wheat went out Of the
elevators as went in. The clevarf r
ownela were simply cheating the
farmers in the grading of their wheat.
So the farmers asked the State gov
ernment to build elevators so that
they could get a square deal in the
wheat grading business. They put
the proposed law on the ballot by the
same initiative as you have in your
state, the people adopted it, and then
the legislature refused to appropri-
ate the funds for the project which
the people themselves had declared
for. And l know what / am talking

they were told to "GO HOME AND

The present non-partisan move
ment in North Dakota grew out Of
such conditions as tnat. Don't blame
