To the Automobile Editor.
I have a runabout and about every
fifty miles the water is entirely
evaporated, there being no leak what
soever The spark adjustment seems
to be correct as It sparks at about
or 10 degrees past center when
spark is retarded The pump seems
to throw the water in jerks instead
of a continuous flow into the radiator
The car is always driven on advanced
spark
Hoping to receive an answer in
your next issue ] am.-F F.
Answer-You say that there are no
water leaks Of any kind. II such is
the case. then the water must evapor-
ate. This can take place only by
motor overhcating and steaming. From
what you say about the action of the
water pump It would appear that the
propeller II the pump IS loose on
shaft. This would prevent circulation
The propeller is usually keyed to the
shaft. and it is possible that this key
has been sheared Would suggest that
YOU open the water pump and make
thorough inspection. Also note the
condition Of hose connections. often
times these will close up and prevent
circulation

The club, which is named "The Guy Invincibles,' was organized only ore month ago, but it has rapidly grown to become the largest in mem- bership in Arkansas, Mr. Williams said. The club decided recently to put on community fair at Guy this fall, and meeting of the fathers of the club members was held, at which the heartiest cooperation was unani- mously pledged to the youngsters.

PROSECUTION OF
SHEEP SHIPPERS
IS DENIED HERE.

Anxious to take advantage of tech.
nical law which would impose a pen
atty on the sheepmen OF this state
who were forced to ship their flocks
out OF the state in 1918 and return
them the following year, the state
board of sheep commissioners tried to
pervnil upon county authorities here
to institute proceedings against the
wool men who did not comply with
state regulations governing the i'm
portation of sheep.
The desired action was based on a
decision rendered by William B. Wall,
state attorney general who held thai
the sheep which were returned to the
Wyoming ranges were really imported
animals.
NJ. W. Purcell, county attorney, re.
fused TO take action against Natrona
county wool men TO establish n pre-
ccdent on tho case or force the case
to n decision IN the supreme court be
cause he held hat in n event Il
would work a hardship on the already
ovortaxed stock interests and that
the imposition of a penalty of any
kind would be an injustice to sheep
men who were only technically guilty
of law violations and this offense
transpired before there was a legal
ruling on the law.
Standing pat on this decision Mr..
Purcell so informed the board Of sheep
commissioners and today his office
was informed that his decision had
been accepted by tho state beard and
that no action was contemplated IN
cases where the offense Hntedated h
legal decision of Mr.. Wall.
