ANTI-FREEZE AGENTS
FAVORED FOR WINTER
Most Motor Makers Recommend
Alcohol and Glycerin.
Three Substances In General Use
Which Can Be Prepared by Owner
Without Consulting Any Pro-
fessional Mechanic.

This is the open season for anti
freezing solutions. and car owners will
save themselves much annoyance and
considerable expense If they will but
heed this warning and take ordinary
precautions.
There are three substances In gen.
eral use for making anti-freeze solu-
tions, each of which can be prepared
by the owner himself and used with
out having to consult the professional
mechanic. Alcohol Is probably the
most popular Of all anti-freeze agents.
Glycerin has proved very effective, but
Its cost during the war made its use
almost prohibitIve to the ordinary own
err. Calcium chloride Is perhaps the
most easily prepared solution of all
and, for that reason, is widely used,
but 1t is a dangerous solution to use.
The commercial product, sold in solid
form or In aqueous solutions as an anti
freeze mixture, Is highly injurious be-
cause Of the action on the cOmponents
Of the cooling system. Such alkaline
solutions are productive Of an cleo
trical action wherever two dissimllar
metals are utilized, such as the brass
tubing Of radiator and the solder
used at the joints, the iron water jack
cts and the brass or copper plates.
A summary Of the opinions Of motor
car manufacturers as to the value Of
various anti-freeze solutions shows a
decided preference for alcohol and
glycerin. Neutral alcohol does not act
on metal or on the rubber connections.
But the alcohol In the solution will
evaporate more rapidly than the wa.
ter.

CARE FOR TIRES IN WINTER
They Should Be Partially Debated II
Car 10 Used occasionaIly-Re.
pair Any Cuts.

II an automobile Is used occasion
ally during the winter, 1t will not be
necessary to remove the tires, but
they should be partially Debated. ac-
cording to the department of agri-
cultural engineering Of the University
of Nebraska. The wheels should be
supported by jacks.
Tires should not be left standing on
greasy or wet floors. Grease is in
furious to the rubber and moisture to
the fabric.
If the car is stored for the win
ter, 1t should be lacked up and the
tires removed. If there are any cuts
in the rubber they should be re.
paired so that the moisture may not
enter the fabric.
During the winter, after the castings
have been wrapped in paper or bur-
lap to keep them as dry as possible
and to protect them from the sun
light, they should be placed III dry
room with temperature ranging be-
tween 40 and 85 degrees. Inner tubes
should be removed and either be de-
fiated or rolled loosely with slight
air pressure left In them. The tubes
should then be given the same care
as the castings. Carefully avoid any
c0...act with oil.

An Explanation

Editor Sentinel:
 In justice to Mrs. I. c. Bjorge wish to state that her name was placed on the Independent Ballot without her knowledge. After the Independent ballots had been printed and circulated Mrs. Bjorge came to me and stated that she was not seeking a position on the school board. and had not known of her nomination at the caucus until the next day. However, at the request of friends she signed her acceptance, filing same with the town clerk in order that her name could be placed on the official ballot.
 Inasmuch as Mrs. Bjorge had given her written consent for her name to go on the official ballot 1t never occurred to me that there could be anything wrong in giv- ing her the additional advantage of having her name appear on both tickets. However, the lady questioned the propriety of hay ing her name appear on more than one ticket. I therefore re. gret that l did not consult her be- forehand as l most certainly nev. CT intended to do anything that would place her in the light of trying to carry water on two shoulders as may be claimed by her opponents.

The act also provides that the properties so declared to be public nuisances may be conhscated by the government and sold at pub lie auction. The bill is largely along the abatement law of 1910.

Halibut Schooner ZilaMayWrecked
 at Strait Island
Was Bound for Prince Ru- pert With 10000 Pounds of Halibut When She Struck the Reef on Which the III Fated Mariposa Went Down Over Three Years Ago.

The captain and crew of the halibut schooner, Silla May, which was wrecked on Strait Island last Thursday night at about ten o'clock. arrived in Wrangell late Saturday evening. The boat was en route from Point Le Banc to Prince Rupert with 20, 900 pounds of halibut when she struck the reef on which the ill-fated Mari posa went down over three years ago. It was showing at the time and the man at the wheel evil dently miscalculated the distance to the light on the reef.
 The engines continued to run for about l5 minutes after the boat struck and the men re- mained on board for time, after which two dories were launched, one after another, both being lost owing to the high wind and sea. Two men got into the third dory and it, too, broke away. They were unable to get back to the boat and landed on Strait Island.
 The eleven men who were still aboard the Silla May launched the fourth dOry and lostit, also. They remained on the wrecked boat until she showed signs of break ing up when they all got away in the fifth, and last, of the dories and reached the island in safety. The men found a hut that afford ed them shelter of sort and the captain succeeded in obtaining some provisions and utensils from a fox farmer on the island whose ideas of hospitality were some what vague, according to reports. In order to attract assistance, they rowed out into the straits after spending the two nights on the island and were picked up at Point Baker Saturday noon by the gas-boat, Marie. and brought to Wrangell.
 The men remained here until late Sunday afternoon when they were taken to Steamer Point by the Vivian June to be picked up by the Alameda, southbound.
 The Silla May was 90 feet in length and had a capacity of 5l tons net. She was insured for S9,000. She was built about p years ago, and was at present being used by the Pacific Net and Twine company. Captain Arvold owned a half interest in her. The cabin was washed away the morning after she struck the reef and no attempt will be made to raise her, although it is expected by the captain that the engine can be salvaged.
 Beside Captain Aarvold, the crew consisted of F. Semen, Mag nus Larson, c. Brett, Henry Onil, Philip Yeo, T. Christensen. Tom Olsen, James Muir, L. o. Voge, Oscar Storknes, J. M. Christen- sen and Bernard Kipperberg.
