CLOSED CAR DEMAND
 REACHES HIGH MARK
M o un in g Percentage of Closed Car Production Re- ported by Makers.

Production schedules prepared by the motor car manufacturers for the coming year reflect accurately the constantly increasing desire of the public for closed car comfort.
 The strength of the closed car de- mand is illustrated by the fact that Dodge Brothers, Detroit manufactur- CTS, are planning to devote approxi- mately 35 per cent of their large pro- duction for the latter half of 1922 to construction of closed cars. The inn portance of this figure is emphasized by comparison with last years clos ed car percentage, which was approxi- mately 13 per cent.
 The productisn schedule shows that the closed car of today is distinctly not a luxury" car. It is in great demand because it will stand up under hard driving and pounding on bad roads just as sturdily as the open car-and at the same time offer clos ed car protection and comfort.
 The steel body construction which Dodge Brothers recently introduced in their Business Coupe and Business Sedan provides strength and resistance to strain which is possible only where the construction throughout is of steel. And prices of closed cars can by no means be thought of as prohibitive, as they might have been years ago. The prices of Dodge Brothers all-steel closed cars, for example, now exceed the prices of the open cars by narrow margins of $1O0 to $500.

Body Polish

The car owner who would rather produce all his own Ingredients" at home may be glad to know that an excellent body polish may be made from the following: One pint of tur- pentine, one pint of wood alchohol, one quart of distilled water and one quart of paraffine oil. The alchohol and turpentine should be mixed, after which the water and paraffine oil should be added. The best way of
 mixing the latter two is to place them in a bottle and shake them briskly. The solution should be ap- phed with the soft side of a canton flannel cloth and polished with a dry cloth.

GAS REPRODUCTION RECORD BROKEN
 MONTH OF JULY
More than Half Billion Gal Ions Produced - Big h. crease Shown Over Pre- vious Months.

Washington, D. C., Oct. All pre- vious records for monthly production of gasoline in the United States were broken in July, when 569,711,415 gal Ions were produced, according to fig ures compiled by the United States Bureau of Mines. The July output of gasoline represents an increase of A, ,000, ,OO0 gallons over the June pro- duction and 56,00o,Ooo gallons above the figures for May. The increase over July of last year is 150,000,000 gallons.

The fact that consumption fig ures showed a larger increase than the production figures accounts for a reduction of stocks of gasoline for the month, amounting to 52,000,000 gal Ions.

 A daily average of 1,593 ,000 barrels of oil was run through the stills of S05 refineries reported to the bureau of mines as operating during July. This shows an increase of 46,000 bar rels or 2.96 per cent in the amount of oil run and decrease of in the num- Der of operating refineries as com pared with June. Plans operating in July ran an average of s9.55 per cent of their daily indicated capacity. Imports of gasoline for July amounted to 4,840,09S gallons, exports were 5S,630, ,402 gallons, and shipments to insular possessions were 1,S66, ,7S9 gallons.
 Kerosene production in July amount ed to 192, 1924, APO gallons. Stocks of | kerosene on hand August 1, were 324,5S6,12s gallons, an increase of T. 100000 gallons during the month. Ex- ports of kerosene for July were 50,- 39S,000 gallons and shipments to in .sular possessions amounted to 419,- 900 gallons, showing jointly de- crease of 21,OO0,0O0 gallons form the June figures.
 The production of gas and fuel oils in July amounted to 959,028,518 gal Ions, an increase of 66y000, 900 gallons over the June output. Stocks of these oils August 1, were 1852, ,S7O,284 gal Ions, an increase of 32,000, 900 gallons during the month.
 Output of lubricating oils in July amounted to 91,714,9S7 gallons, an increase Of 11,577,000 gallons over June. Stocks of lubricating oils on hand August l, were 226,699,749 gal Ions, a reduction of 213,0O0 gallons from the beginning of the month.

GRINDING VALVES

When grinding valves be careful not to let particles of emery get into the cylinders. These particles are harder than cast iron, and if some of khe emery is caught between the cylinder walls and the piston they never stop grinding. When completing the job carefully wipe all the emery from the valve and set and finish with kero- sene or gasoline on a cloth as an extra precaution. ass

reason of the fact that one of
the trio, Kirby, formerly lived
in Fort Mill township. The three
men are under death sentence for
the murder i'll Lexington county
several months ago of William
Brazell, youthful transfer driver.
They now have less than one full
day left of life unless something
occurs within the next few hours
to prevent their electrocution.
Kirby is said to be the only one
of the men who shows signs of
restlessness as the time for their
execution approaches.
The first of the trio to die i'll

white man to thus pay the death
penalty since July IA, 1913, when
NJ. l.. Garner was put to death.
Only three white men have been
electrocuted since the establish

with 50 negroes.

Few Delinquent Tax Payers.

"The prospects are that within
the next week or ten days every
citizen of Fort Mi i subject to
the municipal street tax will have
paid up for the current year,
yesterday said N. NJ. McManus,
chief Of police. "When the time
closed with the end of May for
the payment of the tax without
penalty the list of delinquents,
about 80 in all, was turned over
to me by the town clerk. Now
all of these have paid up but six,
and there is some doubt about
three Of this number being sub
ject to the tax on account of
youth, but my instructions are to
collect the tax and notify the
young men that they may appeal
t. council for the return of the
money. If they are able to es-
tablish the claim that they are
less than 21 years of age, they
will be exempt from the tax and
their money will be returned to
