! Grand Forks citizens are to have
an opportunity to learn all the de-
tails of the operation Of the modern
telephone system within a short time.
according to A. A. Purchase, local
manager of the Northwestern Tele-
phone company.
A demonstration board, sent out
from the division headquarters of the.
corporation, is to be stationed at
Grand Forks. The board shows in de-
tail the exact manner in which tele-
phone calls are handled ( from the
time the speaker lifts the receiver to
put in a cal until the call is finished.
The plan is to give demonstrations
with the board before the Rotary.
Kiwanis, Lions and Commercial
clubs, women's clubs and other CIVIC
organizations in Grand Forks, de-
clared the manager.

The board will not be retained in

{. G. +. Girl IS
FAMILIAR WITH
Scene FCRIME;
Miss Theodore Briggs Lived
For Two Years In New
Brunswick.

| A . ... a.-.4a.- rsr@ o.. .S..... H...'..
Miss Theodore Briggs, daughter OF
Mr.. and Mrs. A. N. Briggs, Az North
Fourth street, East Grand Forks,
who lived in New. Brunswick, N. j..
the scene of. the Hall-Wills murder
for two years, expressed the opinion
this morning that Mrs. Hall, wife Of
Rev. Edward j. Hall, m Of the vic
Tins, was in no way connected with
the crime. Miss Briggs lived across
the street from the church Of which
Mr.. Hall was pastor. n knew both
him and his wife very we'll. She
however did not know Mrs. Mills, the
other murder victim, or her husband,
James Mills, she said.
Miss Briggs has been a teacher in
the New Jersey Women's college for
two years. and returned to her home
in East Grand Forks at the close OF
the school term in June.
MRS. Hall was a daughter Of one
Of the most wealthy and exclusive
families in New Brunswick" Miss
Briggs said. "She was a cultured
woman, and a friend and helper of
many of the college girls. knew
church on several occasions. At no
time during my stay in that COM
munity> did I hear any gossip con-
corning the family. and it Is hard for
me to believe that there was any
scandal c%onnected' with the double
murder" rs
Miss Briggs was Of the opinion that
1t was not likely that the Hall and
the Mills family were on intimate So
cial terms. as Mrs. Hall moved In the
most exclusive set In a town, that
had iron-clad social barriers, that
made it extremely difficult for an out
slider, or a person with a position
such as Mr.. Mills Che was a janitor)
to associate with the people in this
set. Most of the "elite" in New
Brunswick attended st. Johns
church of which Mr.. Hall was pas"
tor.
New Brunswick has a very, unsav-
DRY reputation as a center for Grim
tnals, according to Miss Briggs. and
it was said hat at least one murder
is committed every week. AS New
Brunswick is a manufacturing center
the population is largely foreign and
iliiterate. and this Miss Briggs said
may account for the. prevalence OF
crime. 1t also has a large percentage
of "sub-normals" and negroes.
New Brunswick has a population OF
some yer 10000 but is less cosmo.
politan in appearance than Grand
Forks according to Miss Briggs.

TEMPERATURE is IMPORTANT
Point Below Boiling Point Of Water
Prevents Condensation and
Excessive Wear.

To get the greatest efficiency from
motor and at the same time with
maximum economy, 1t should be op-
Grated at temperature point little
below the boiling point of water. This
prevents condensation of gasoline, bad
results from cold oil. and excessive
wear to motor parts, not only because
of poor fabrication. but also because
motor parts have not had the oppor-
tunity to expand properly. In other
words, hot motor parts fit. And the
motor should reach the proper tenn
perature point as quickly as possible.
For this reason radiator shutters and
motormeter are standard equipment
on some cars. They insure long life

How to Fry Potato Chips.
The best results are obtained when
the sliced potato chips are washed In
running cold water under faucet for
at least an hour and soaked in cold
water several hours longer. The wa.
ter in the pans should be changed until
the last wash water is practically free
of starch. The slices need not be
dried before immersion, but as much
water as possible should be shaken Off
When the oil reaches 210 degrees G..
(410 degrees F.) basket Of raw
sliced potatoes is lowered into the
fat. and stirred constantly with long
handled spoon. The object of the hot
water bath sometimes recommended is
chiefly to coagulate the protein In the
potatoes, and this result can be OBJ
tained equally well by heating the fat

the frying basket is raised and
drained, and the chips spread on
brown paper to dry. While still warm
they should be sprinkled lightly with
salt. Chips prepared in this way
should keep sweet for weeks in mod
crate temperatures.
The oil should be reheated to 410
degrees F. after each batch Of chips
is removed The best way to deter
mine the temperature is by means OF
a thermometer. II chips are made fre-

COOLING SYSTEM
MOST IMPORTANT
Many Motorists Experience Con-
siderable Trouble From Their
Engines 0verheating.
MEANS TO PREVENT TROUBLE
Aest Essential That There Be Free
Circulation Of Water, Freedom
From Scale and Strong Cur
rent Of Cooled Air.

Every automobile owner or driver
knows from experience that gas en-
gine becomes hot after running for
some time. This Is due to the explo-
sions or rapid burning of the gas in
side the cylinders.
large percentage of the heat de-
veloped in the cylinder goes to heat
up the cylinder walls and If these
cannot be cooled either by strong
blasts Of air or water circulation
around them, they will become so hot
that they will crack and break apart
or at least become warped out of
shape and become useless BY far
the greater number of cars use what
is known as the water7cooling system.
How Water ls Cooled.
The water flows around the cylinder
walls and then through piping and
ator where 1t is spread out in thin
sheets or small pipes which have an
immense amount of surface exposed
to the air. In this manner the water
is cooled and then flows back to the
engine in order to keep it, also, cooled
to the proper temperature.
If any part of the cooling system
fails to function properly, the cylin-
ders are not cooled and we say that
the engine overheats. Water, as we
know, cannot be heated above 212 de-
grees sF. without being placed under
pressure. Therefore, the water which
flows around the cylinder walls cannot
be heated above this temperature. If
the water Is not kept slightly below
this temperature, 1t will rapidly evap-
crate by boiling If the engine is run
without water in the water Jacket the
cylinder walls will be heated above
their normal temperature, with the re-
suit that the oil will be entirely
burned off the cylinder wall surface
and the piston will begin to cut small
slots lengthwise on the wall with the
result that often the engine will, In a
few minutes time, be seriously dam
aged.
Necessary Conditions.
In order that the cooling system
work properly, we must have the fol-
lowing conditions:
Plenty of water, free circulation of
water throughout the entire system,
freedom from scale in the radiator
and strong current of air passing
continuously through the radiator to
cool the water.
1t follows, that if the engine over
heats. some Of the previous conditions
are not being fulfilled. Usually we
look at the fan first, as this is where
the trouble most frequently occurs.
See that the far bearings are free and
that the belt is tight enough to drive
the fan with very little slipping, also
have the fan blades tipped at the
proper angle to draw the air through
the radiator.
While the fan belt must be tight
enough to turn the fan, care must be
taken not to tighten the belt so that
1t will be broken In few minutes Of
running. Next see that there is plenty
of water in the radiator; feel of the
rubber hose connections to see whether
they feel flabby. If they are soft, 1t is
very likely that the inner walls of the
hose have softened and perhaps en-
tirely filled the opening so that the
water cannot flow through.

You Auto Know

That one of the chief causes
of automobile fires, especially
during cool weather, Is "backfir-
Ing" which, in turn. is due to
the mixture not being sufficient
ly rich in gasoline. When the
backfire occurs sheet of flame
leaps from the air intake OF the
carburetor, and II 1t strikes
anything of an easily inflamma-
BILE nature, a serious explosion
or flame is likely to result.
The collection of gasoline upon
the drip-pan is one Of the prin-
cipal dangers In this connection.
for the gas vaporizes so rapidly
that. II the pan is not properly
drained or cleaned at regular
intervals, there is almost certain
to be sufficient mixture In the
vicinity Of the carburetor to
cause trouble from backfire and
the subsequent flame. The pre-
-vention Of this risk, of course.
lies in the frequent use Of the
choker in starting during cold
weather, and also in keeping the
drip-pan and the carburetor well
cleaned, although fires have also
been known to start from back
firing igniting pools Of oil or
