EASY STARTING
Matter OF OIL

Discovered-the secret of easy
starting and flexible operation
during the winter months.
So claims e. e. Wyatt, local
manager Of the Standard Oil com
pany.
"And it really isn't a secret
after ALL" he says, "it's merely a
matter of using an oil that stays
fluid in cold weather."
Wyatt, who is thoroughly post
ed on matters pertaining to the
correct fabrication of the modern
automobile, says that motorists
are finally beginning to appreci-
ate the Importance Of using a
low cold test oil in winter.
The cold test of an oil is the
temperature at which an oil con-
geals and ceases to flow.
''If the cold test isn't sufficient t.
ly low, the oil will not remain in
a fluid condition during the cold
weather." says Wyatt.
I'VE recommend Zerolene No.
l.. 3 or 5 for winter motoring" I"
concludes Wyatt, "it has the low
est cold test Of any oil we have
discovered. 1t flows freely in freez
ing weather, and safeguards the
engine under all conditions"

LOCAL STORE IS
HOST TO SANTA

A child's dream of paradise
and fancies, the yearnings of a
child's heart, have sprung into
reality by the arrival of Santa
Claus at the Peoples Cash store.
Hundreds and hundreds of little
children were there to meet him
yesterday. He told them weird
and mysterious stories of the land
from which he came and gleeful-
ly entertained them with comics
and life like dolls and toys. The
numerous little visitors who
flocked to see him with their
Christmas messages and their
bright, happy eyes filled with JOY
GUS expectations were more than
delighted with their reception.
This is the first visit of Santa
Claus to Salem. He heard that Sa-
lem had grown up; had become
metropolitan, and so he came,
just as he has been coming at
holiday time to the big cities like
New York and Chicago and San
Francisco and Portland. He likes
Salem.
So he is going to stay till Christ

The policy of Salem police Of

of Police Moffitt said this after

must listen TO them as TO oracles when

A famous moving picture director SAID
the other day that a woman must pos
sess both beauty and intelligence in
order to become a successful film star,
but that she mustn't look intelligent
She must have brains, but she must
keep them under her hat, as the phrase
goes.
That is pretty much the specification
for the successful woman everywhere
else, as we'll as on the silver screen.
Why the world has this prejudice
against feminine intelligence no one
knows. 1t merely exists, and is blind
force with which the prudent and dis
Greet do not stop TO argue. Hence, the
first thing every really clever woman dis
covers Is the advisability o. not letting
anyone find out how clever she is. That
is why few women are as big fools as
they appear.
4 woman who has beauty may make
the most Of it, and fiaunt il in our faces
and we applaud her for it, and admire
her: The minute, however, woman
begins displaying her superior quality
of grey matter before us, we turn ouI
thumbs down, and she is finished.
Hence the woman with good, hard,
horse sense, and the desire to arrive at
her goal, puts the DINNER on her bril-
lance, and fluffs her hair down over
her tall, knobby forehead till we never
even suspect that she is highbrow.
Yet while we sternly discourage 9
woman from showing that she has more
than barely human intelligence, We
secretly demand the results Of brain:
from her.
We want her to be educated, well read
good talker, and an intelligent listener
competent to do whatever work she ha!
in hand. But she must do all Of thes,
