then remove Oil pan and clean with

per hour the first 1000 miles, as engine
is stiff and bearings must be worn In
slowly; otherwise a noisy engine VIII

frequently until the varnish has hard

Polishing.

The last two or three years have
brought a very remarkable develop
ment in American body building. The
mechanism Of the modern motor car
has reached an approximate degree
OF perfection, leaving the manufac-
turers free to devote more time to In
creasing the attractiveness Of the
vehicle. The present day American
car as it leaves the factory is really
thing of beauty with the highly
polished surfaces and shiny metal.
Naturally this has induced the owner
to take more pride In keeping up the
appearance Of the gasoline steed. The
result Is that cleaning methods and
equipment have greatly advanced over
those Of few years back.
Easy to Keep Clean.
The present day owner using mod
ern methods may keep his car looking
new all the time, nor will he have to
spend more than few moments day
to accomplish this end. For instance,
there are now on the market num-
Der Of liquid and wax polishes which
will give admirable results II they are
used as directed.
In the use of wax polishes the first
step is to clean the body Of the car
thoroughly. The polish Is applied to
the surface with a piece OF cheese
cloth and then another clean cloth Is
used to distribute the wax evenly all
over the surface Car owners COM
monty make the mistake of thinking
that the more wax applied the better.
As matter of fact very thin film Is
all that Is needed.
Washing the car is not the casual
Job some owners seem to imagine. To
begin with, the car should be washed
Immediately after it has been dirty. II
mud is allowed to remain on the var
nished surface more than day 1t Is
difficult to eradicate it. For the wash
ing plain water should be used, neither
too hot nor to cold, about so degrees
Fahrenheit being the proper tempera-
ture. A large sponge soaked in clear
water and then sopped against the sur
face so that the water trickles down
Is best. Never turn stream of water
at high pressure on the body. .s..-
Use Channels for Drying.
In drying the body clean chamofs
skin should be used, rubbing being done
in straight lines. II spots Of tar or
road oil are found on the body It is
best to treat them with salt butter or
kerosene. The butter softens The de-
posit so that it may be wiped Of easily.
Kerosene should be applied locally and
wiped off within minute.
To keep pace with the improved ap-
pearance Of the body it Is necessary
to give some attention to the top and
the upholstery. A weekly brushing Of
the top, inside and out, will aid ma
terially In Its life. Fabric tops should
never be cleaned with gasoline, kero-
sene, or other oils, as they tend to de
stroy the rubber in the top. CASTLE
soap and water applied with Q stiff
brush is the best cleansing medium for
che top.

Every time there is fire on farm
1t takes away value that never can
be replaced Either the owner must
be deprived Of what may have been
the fruits Of 20 Of the best years Of
his life, or the insurance company
will be called upon for check, which
has to come out Of the premiums paid
by himself and other property owners.
# there are many f1res the insur-
-ance rates increase. In mutual COM
panies, which carry large proportion
of farm insurance, the increase Is Inn
mediately felt In recent year there
were more than $1,000 farm fires In
the United States, entailing loss OF
more than $18,000000, Of which 33 per
cent was held to have been prevent
able,
Strive to Prevent Fires
Prevention OF fires was made q
special subject of consideration In
churches, schools, public gatherings,
and farm organizations for an entire
week this October. The farmer, with
the accumulation Of many years tied
up in his buildings, may well make
every week fre-prevention week.
According to the United States De.
partment Of Agriculture, practically
every fire is preventable, except those
caused by lightning or Of incendiary
origin. Even when the best preven-
tive measures fail and fires break out.
preparatory measures will put the
farmer and his neighbors in better
shape to subdue them.
Every fire must have an initial
fame. whether It be from a carelessly
Nosion Of kerosene or gasoline, an
explosion Of grain dust in thrash
ing machine, or sparks from sooty
chimney or passing engine.
Matches never should be left loose
or within the reach of children. Put
them In noncombustible containers
and have pocket match safe. Better
yet use safety matches, which can be
scratched only on the box.
Smoking never should be permitted
around the barn or in the vicinity Of
inf1ammable matter. Matches, cigar or
cigarette stubs never should be
thrown where they can do harm.
Kerosene and gasoline are useful
servants. but destructive when let
loose.
They should be rigidly confined and
never allowed to mix or change places.

Police Captains Rule
By Rod Ends Bonires
Parents Apply Switch Kept at
Newark Station for Juven-
lie Offenders

For two months there has not been
a bonfire in the Second Police Precinct.
Newark. Captain Ebert says that there
won't be any SO long as two switches
which he placed there hang in prom
inent positions sbehind the lieutenant's
desk.
When Captain Ebert took command
of the precinct the chief amusement. of
boys in the neighborhood was to build
bonfires in the street and in vacant lots.
Several children had been severely
burned and some had died from burns
received.
Finding two boys who had built a
bonfire, Captain Ebert took them to the
police station, summoned their parents
and displayed the switches. The boys
ought to be punished, he said; if they
weren't punished by their parents it
would be police court matter, and
that would mean a $40 fine.
The boys parents agreed that n
switch in time saves $40, and eacn
father took a boy across his knee and
piled a switch Justify. Captain Ebert,
meantime, had turned or all The lights
and raised the shades to give the iuve-
nile audience outside good view of the
proceedings. There were two or three
more such incidents, and then the boys
lost all interest in bonfrcs.

Climax of Gunman Feud

Murder and Scatter as

Frank Lorello, Grand Street gangster,
gunman and ex-convict, sat alone in
an automobile in front of 100 Chrystie
Street at $3.50 o'clock yesterday after
noon, putting a cigarette and eying
the hurrying sidewalk throng with his
accustomed complacency. He had been
sitting there about five minutes when
a small, wizened faced man began to
pick his way through the sidewalk Jam
toward the automobile.
The little man worked his way slow
~ and cautiously, and suddenly bobbed
up alongside 4 the automobile, some
thing fasting in his hand Lorello
started al ne sight of the mans face
and attempted TO rise.
A bullet strucs; Lorello in the chest,
but lie rose. lie icaped from the car
to the a;uewalk, AS he struck the
ground his assailant, changing his posi-
ton but slightly, leveled his revolver
again and fired four shots in rapid
succession. each shot taking effect.
Lorello, with bullets in his throat,
chest, arm and heart, fell dead on the
sidewalk. The murderer tucked his
revolver away in an inside pocket and
darted eel-like through the crowd, wrig-
SilHe anu squliHllnR uhtll II" Had
reached hallway forty feet away. He
ran into the hallway and was not seen
again.
The murder had been witnessed by
scores of pedestrians, and several men
and women tried to clutch Lorello's az
sailant as he ran through the crowd.
Patrolman Miller, of the Clinton
Street station, took the body of Lorello
to Gouverneur Hospital, where it was
said that he had been killed instantly.
Detectives were assigned to the case
and were soon convinced that Lorello
was a victim of gang feud, probably
one Of long standing.
Lorello, the police say, has prowled
the East Side districts for many years,
and since 1906 has been arrested for
burglary. assault, violation Of the drug
law, lettering and various other
charges. In 1918 he was sent to Sing
Sing to serve two years and nine
months on burglary charge. In 1917
he was arrested for having illicit drugs
in his possession, and as late as April
of this year he was taken into custody
for carrying a revolver.
He is known to have frequented the
haunts of Grand Street gangstcrs of
several years back and is said to have
been leader in the gang fights that
were once waged with unfailing regu-
larity along the length of Grand Street.
The police say he had no visible occu-
patton and that he lived somewhere in
Delaney Street.
Fifteen minutes before he was killed
he was seen in bootblack shop at 106
Christie Street, eating a sandwich and
drinking cup of coffee. When he left
the shop he headed for the automobile,
took a seat and lighted cigarette. 1t
was after he had seated himself in the
machine, the police say, that his assail-
ant caught sight of him and decided
that he would settle old scores then
and there.
