HOW DRIVER KNOWS WHEN
HE Is GOING STRAIGHT BACK.

When you have managed to get the
rear of your car in just the correct 20
sition for backing into tight place in
the garage, and the attendant has said,
"Now, straight backi" it usually il .
problem to know when the front wheels
are in II straight position. You cannot
see them from the drivers seat, 80 you
must trust to luck that you won't run
into one Of the cars next to you.
To simplify this work of backing,
simply set the wheels in straight po-
sition and then make small notch on
the under side Of the steering wheel
rim at position nearest to you. If,
then, when you are backing the notch
happens to be to one side or the other
you will know that the wheels are not
straight. A slight allowance in the po-
sition of the notch must be taken into
consideration according to the amount
of play in the steering wheel.

BRINGS HIGH pR1o1.

DE BEQUE, April e.-sale Of 1880
acres of oil-shale land at As an acre,
net to him, was announced Wednesday
by J. G. Hardison, proprietor Of the
Pioneer store in DeBeque. Mr.. Hardi-
son left for Denver Wednesday after
noon to sign the papers to bind the
deal and receive the first instalment Of
more than $4,000 on the purchase
price, which his attorney advised had
been deposited by the purchaser.
This sale tops the market in regard
to the acre price, it being the highest
price yet recorded, although many sales
involving larger sums for greater acre
ages have been made here. This is a
cash deal, the remainder of the pur-
chase price being due within 80 days.
The property is about twelve miles
from DeBeque, on Clear Creek, near
Roam. 1t faces Mt. Blaine and joins
the holdings of the Superior shale Oil
company, of Des Moines, Iowa, on the
north. The Superior holdings are some-
what more favorably situated - to
frontage, and were purchased just a
year ago for $3.50 an acre, SO the Har-
dixon sale indicates an increase OF 200
per cent. in the market price Of OIL
shale lands in one year.
The property was purchased by H.
Clarkson of New York for the United
Shale Corporation, strong organiza-
ton with plenty of backing behind it..
Arthur J. Hoskin, oil-shale engineer
of Denver, interested Mr.. Clarkson in
the possibilities Of DeBeque oil-shale
deposits several years ago, but the lat
ter's ill health prevented the carrying
out of the plans then formed.
1t is understood the United is imme-
diately to start the erection of plant
for the production of oil-shale and it's
by-products.

by the Sunday school and choir at the
Presbyterian church. The service was
conducted by Ethel Dismant, assistant
superintendent. The choir, consisting Of
members Of the high school and some Of
the young people of the town, under the
capable direction Of Miss Brush, sang
many beautiful songs appropriate for
the occasion. easter Dawn" sung
by Miss Brush, was pleasing number
of the program. The reading, "The
Easter Victory" by Miss Pierce, was
much enjoyed. Three high school stu
dents gave Bible readings. While Miss
Pierce and Miss Carlson sang, Vivian
Macauley gave a pantomime, "Jesus,
Lover of Ny Soul,' which tnded the
program of the evening.

and social time at the school house. A
committee of three boys had been ap-
pointed to provide for good time. The

verse containing the name of a city

in danger from them.''
"Oh, say, Uncle Ted, didn't you tell
US once that the United States was in
danger of being forced into world
club that would make us send our SOL
der to Europe 10 fight wars over there,
and that would give Europe the right
to settle quarrels ON this side of the
Atlantic OCEAN, Didn't the European
people try to get US into thatf' asked
Jack.
"Some of the foreigners wanted us
in and some didn't. Although L could
not prove it, 1 very strongly suspect
that there was lot of foreign influ-
ence exerted here under cover to get ls
to go into the league, or world club.
Then there has been lot Of foreign
propaganda to get the United States
to cancel about ten billions of debts
due this country from Europe. And l
am told that there is foreign propagan-
da intended to influence US in our mer-
chant ship policy, and in our naval
policy, and in our policy relative to
putting tax on foreign goods that
come into this country.
Now, maybe that man on the street
car was right. Possibly those foreign
people cause us q lot Of damage by try
ing to guide our policies for us, but,
as 1 haid before, think they are an
awful nuisance but not of any real
danger. OF course, we have TO keep
watch on what they are doing and pre-
vent them from misleading our own
people, and that may be a good thing
for the country. We take more inter
est in running our own affairs when we
see outsiders trying to run them for
us. Most of the leaders of the Social
lists, who want to transform our gov
ernment, are foreigners, but they are
not really dangers to the country, for
they work in the open and we can an
swer their arguments, or lock them up
if they advocate force Or unlawful
measures.
If our old historian, Whelpley, had
been writing in 1921, instead of 1903,
he would have written just about the
same, except when he asked what would
be the fate of an American propagan-
dist in London or Paris, he would have
added Berlin, Moscow, Warsaw, Cork
and Rome.
Here is the trouble-if you try to
shut off bad propaganda, you are likely
to prevent some good propaganda AS
well. 1t is better to meet the foreign
the best we can, and fight
all the harder for America when we see
foreigners here trying to make us see
things their way. And haven't any
doubt about the outcome. Yon remem-
Der, don It you, that when Mr.. Harding
