Unlike the design Of the majority OF

large enough for comfort in entering
and alighting.
Six wire wheels are regular equip

AUTO CHAIN PULL

This is device to give the car trac-
tion when the wheels are slipping in
mud or heavy sand. It consists OF two
steel pins which are sunk into the
ground and which have at their upper
ends an anchor plate for gripping the
end of an ordinary tire chain. An at
tachment secures the other end Of the
tire chain to the rear wheel. and causes
the wheel when revolved to mount the
chain and climb out of the mud. AS
the anchor plates the chains automati-
cally unhook.

All Europe is watching with intense
interest the next step toward dismem-
berment OF the German empire,
namely, an election that takes place
in mid March in Upper Silesia, to de-
termine whether this immensely rich
coal district remains German or be-
comes Polish.
Today a whirlwind campaign is
taking place in Upper Silesia between
German and Polish partisans. 1t is

European opinion is sharply divid-
ed on the question. Among the Allied
nations there are grave differences OF
opinion on the justice and advisable
ity of depriving Germany of the rich
coal resources of Upper Silesia. Cur
tailment of German coal supplies now
secured from this region. would seri-
ously cripple Germany's ability to pay

Broadly speaking there are three
distinct viewpoints in Europe regard

PUTTING NEW END
ON HACK-SAW BLADE

A simple way to put a new end on
a hack-saw blade would be to stick
the saw through a potato. The short
end projecting through can then be
heated in the flame Of blow torch
until it becomes red hot. When this
has been permitted to cool. it will be
found that the temper has been drawn
from the end Of the saw. and IL will
be possible to drill a new hole in order
70 fasten the saw in the frame again.
The potato protects the covered part
OF the saw from the action of the heat,
end in this way preserves the temper

II Is always advisable TO use tire
chains whenever pavement and roads
are In such condition as to make skid
dink likely 70 happen in turning corn
ers, stopping and starting. But, the
driver should bear in mind that chains
should be removed as soon as 1t is safe
TO drive without them.
In putting chains on the rear tires,
they should be fixed to the wheels with
the hooks TO the rear 80 that the for
ward motion Of the wheels will have a
tendency to pun the chains tighter in
the locks. IL at any time it is neces-
sary TO reverse the wheels in order to
set out OF bad hole. the chains should
be inspected 20 make certain that they
have not become unlocked by the
backward motion OF the wheels.
Small wire wrapped around the hook
locks will often prevent chains from
loosening and becoming lost.

BUICK GIVES HINTS ON
HOW TO Do IN PINCH

Nearly every motorist AZ some time
cr other has the peculiar experience Of
running out OF gasoline. Whenever
the supply tank has been completely
exhausted, II should be remembered
that Il N necessary TO prime the
vacuum tank before the carburetion
system will function again. This is
generally done by removing the plug
on top Of the vacuum tank and filling
the tank with gasoline.
The easIet method. however. Is after
replenishing the supply of gasoline in
the feed tank, TO close the choke on
the dash, retard the spark and advance
the gasoline throttle lever. Then throw
on the switch and run the motor on the
starter for about a half a minute;
throw off the switch and after waiting
for about three minutes. start the mo-
tor In the usual way.
Turning the motor over with the
choke closed for half'a minute forms a
vacuum in the system and starts the
gasoline siphoning from the supply
tank to the vacuum tank. II is neces-
sary to wait three minutes In order
70 allow sufficient time for the vacuum
tank to fill itself. This procedure not
only saves time, but also makes the
filling more convenient.

NITROGEN RESEARCH
 LABORATORY TRANcFERRED

Washington, July 1.--(Special) J. By an order of the President, the fixed nitrogen research laboratory in Washington. established for war pur- poses in 1919. has been transferred from the war department to the de- partment of agriculture. This means that the research work to discover methods of fixing nitrogen from the air and making it available Tor use will be continued, and the results Will be available for agricultural and chemical purposes.
 Dr. R. c. Holman, director of fixed nitrogen research will remain in the same position. The method of con trol of the research work under the department of agriculture has not been worked out in detail. The sum of S500,000 made available from funds in the control of the President is transferred for the maintenance or the work for the next two years
 The fixed nitrogen research labor atory was founded by an order or the Secretary of War dated March 2s, 1919 and has been operated with budget of $300.000 year.
 The main work of the laboratory has been to study the fixation or nitrogen by the cyanamide, the haper and the arc processes, and to study the methods of transforming the va rious forms of nitrogen containing products so as to make them most available for military, agrlcullurai or industrial uses.
 H'he cyanamide process is the one designed to be used at the Muscle Shoals plant in Alabama, and the Haber process in the smaller Shef1ield plant in the same state, while the arc process is regarded as one or the most important processes of nitrogen fixation from military point or view, since it can be most rapidly in- stalled in case of war, and since IL provides nitrogen at once in the ni- trate form without the necessity or any oxidation from the ammonia form. The government owns no arc plant, and for this reason less atten- tion has so far been given to this process than to the others.
 The cynamide process Is one or the best known and best established methods of fixing nitrogen, ana the laboratory has completed more work in connection with this process than with the other methods or nitrogen fixation The cyanamide process IS at present the only process by Wnlch nitrogen can be fixed in America in case of emergency. The work on cyanamide was originally undertaken at the specific direction Of the llAeu nitrogen administration.

 But Dick Calardin won his free- dom, which he wanted cut in Julian hastily.

For Good of
 the Community

y church where Christmas bells shall ring out this Yuletide."
 Why not? The chimes express the soul of the community. They stand for that Christian manfulness which has subdued continents, built cities, blazed the untrod paths of commerce, amassed the wealth that counts for spread of enlightenment and, when needs be, showed the world how to fight for what is right.
 All mans works come after the will to do There must be vision before the painting. None finds steel mills and ship yards in the heart of Africa None hears chimes there. Chimes and commerce issue from the same source; the structural in man that bids him create
 So, as the period of depression seems to be reaching the turn and men look into the vista seeing light ahead, it is good to read that, in answer to letters addressed to 1000 retail lumber dealers over the country, the American Lunberman of re- cent issue was enabled to say:
 A recent development in the build
 ing situation is the large number of
 churches begun within the last 60
 
 that has been virtually suspended in the past four years.
 This means that men have not lost faith; that they still believe God is good and that churches are worth while. It denial of every pessimistic thought that has stirred the bile of the human these passing months.
 The American Lumberman also de- clares that more hospitals, school build ings and state and institutional structures of one kind and another have been begun Tn the past two months than in the preced- ing two years.
 Home building continues to lead. Men must first have the roofs over their own heads; a shelter for their families Next they build for the worship of the Creator and then for the needs of the wards of the community and the advancement of the coming generation.
 The lumbermen of the country see a continuous increase in building opera tions ahead. They have reason to do so. Reports of the banks show greater savings than at this time last year. The people have had the money all during the period OI OOpI coOlOIl lHcy Have WdlCOu OIlly d fair proffer for value received
 The tower of Babel fell because foolish men were trying to scale the walls of heaven. The churches, dwellings of men, roads and schools and asylums shall not fall, because they stand for mans condi- tion here below and the facing of the duty which his mind and heart tell him lie be- fore.
 None of this went on either during the necessities of the war or during the mad period following. When men and boys were making more money out of the earth s wants than was healthful for them, they thought little of building homes churches, schools, roads and asylums. They were mad chasing the dollar.
 When extravaganza had put a crimp in its own career and waste had shown what waste was and whither it led, the simple things that made the pioneer came again to the fore. Men began to recoup love of the roof tree and to again regard the wants of their fellow man. Church and school plans came to head
