SCOTCH FISHERMEN
IN RELIGIOUS WAVE
Heavenly Visions in Sky Pos,
sess Tars to Worship
Great Skipper"

LONDON, Jan. 21.-Fishermen
who believe they have seen heaven
" visions while hauling in their nets,
and who tell stories Of ships crews
falling down on the decks of their
crafts and worshipping the Great
Skipper" are leading a remarkable
religious revival on the northern and
eastern seaboards of Scotland.
The revival possesses all the fer
vor, emotion and rough rhetoric of
the famous religious outbursts of
Wales, but it is made the more pic
turesque by the fact that the revi-
valists use innumerable sea terms
in their soul-saving metaphors.
The Almighty is the Great Skip
per" the congregations are urged TO
drop their anchor in the faith and
hang out the riding lights and be
saved.
Meetings which are held in all the
towns and villages are packed with
fervent crowds, and, sometimes, the
praying, singing and preaching ex-
tend all night and far into the morn
ing.
All Churches Thrown Open.
Churches have everywhere been
thrown open 10 the revivahsts. who
are followed by enthusiastic converts
and shepherds, fishermen, work
men. their wives and children, who

merchants are also flocking 10 the
meetings.

TOY MISSION AIDS
PITTSBURG NEEDY
Children Who Could Not
Share Joys of PlaythingS
Are Helped by Scheme.

PITTSBURG. Pa, Jan. q. 49,
Among the several unusual institu-
tons IN this city is the Toy Mission.
It was started % or 80 years ago
and has fourished ever since.
In the long ago a citizen conceived
the idea that each year there were
thousands of toys cast aside by rich
children after they had played with
them for awhile. So this man pro-
ceeded 10 round up these discarded
toys. Another prominent citizen
furnished a storeroom, and here the
toys were gathered. A handy crafts
man put on a leg here and touch
OF paint there. and presto! the toys
were as good as new.
Then the aid of the newspapers
was enlisted to ask citizens 10 turn
in the names Of little boys and girls
who were too poor TO share in Yule-
tide joys and who would not likely
receive any toys.
/ Was there any response? There
was and by the hundreds and thou
sands. It was surprising to know
how many poor, toyless kids there
were in this city
! The first year the stock Of rejuve-
mated toys was not particularly
I large, but the toys were taken
I Christmas morning to a lot OF little
boys and girls about the city who
Y otherwise would have had nOthins
to play with on Christmas day. The
cheer these playthings brought . TO
/ lonely kids cannot be estimated. II
was a wonderful idea.
/ Civic Leaders Support
Came the next Christmas. and the
newspapers gave UP columns OF
/ space boosting the toy mission and
/ explaining its needs and what it
could do. Dollies Of every size,
color and description poured in
/ That was not all. Steam engines,
games and every gimcrack known &c
/ the toy world were donated. And
everyone found a sad but lonely an,
waiting kid.
/ SO the years passed. More and
more influential citizens were enlist
ed in this cause. Some bought lots
of brand new toys, others contribu-
ted generous sums of cash 10 pur-
chase these playthings.
The Toy Mission OF PittSburg has
grown TO great proportions. Two
weeks before Christmas each year
may be seen hundreds of poor
mothers. with from one to a dozen
kids, picking out the treasures which
/ they think their little ones will be
/ pleased with. One, two or three
toys are allotted 70 each child. Some
are taken home by these poor
parents, others are delivered Christ
mas morning.
Last Christmas, according to re-.
cent figures. 10000 down-and- out
kids in PittSburc were made happy
BY the work OF the Toy Mission.
Two weeks before Christmas so
ciety girls OF aristocratic Grafton a
lsurburb. came 10 the mission 20 con
duct a regular embarrassing cam

It's not such a bad old world, after

the cylinder walls. not very deep
ones. however. Could this be the
cause OF the loss OF power? Would
1t DO an expensive JOB to have them
removed? s. o.
Evidently most OF your power has
leaked out there. but there may
have been leakage elsewhere, as
through the valves, around spark
plugs. etc. The grooves may have
been caused by pieces Of the rings
breaking off and being TANNED IN
between the cylinder walls and the
piston. or the engine may have run
dry at some time. II the grooves are
shallow the cylinders may be re-
ground and new pistons and rings

HELPFUL HINTS.


some time IT Is advisable TO drain
float chamber OF carburetor in order
10 get rid Of any sediment or water.
Dirt or a few drops of water IN the
carburetor viii cause the motor to
misfire badly.
In most every gas line there is a
dirt trap, either in the line itself or
at the base Of the carburetor. You
should think TO clean this occasion
ally before trouble is encountered.
The present day fuel contains more
or less waste matter. and trouble
with the carouretor can be reduced
by cleaning this trap occasionally.
II gasoline runs out Of the car
buretor after the engine stops il
shows that the air entering the car
buretor is not hot enough TO vapor-
ize the present grade Of fuel. The
gasoline accumulates and runs out
as soon as the suction stops. Look
over the hot air pipe around the eX-
haust manifold for leaks or have
such a pipe installed if mono is
used.
It requires more gasoline to drive
around IN contested streets than to
run straight on open roads. Closing
the throttle during the greater part
of a hill descent will not only be
safer, but viii save gasoline. Fuel
economy means a healthier engine.
u IS essential to have the engine
thoroughly warmed up before start
ing 20 adjust the carburetor. Plenty
of time should be taken doing II SO
that the engine Is hot when the fin
ishing touches are given. An engine
adjusted while cold will not develop
( full power, and an entirely different
adjustment will be necessary after il
+ heats mp, resulting in an increase OF
/ power and gasoline economy.
