AMUSING THE OLD MAN
William Allen White in Judge.

William Allen White in Judge.
 It's hard lines for the old man In the front office. Just because he has an overstuffed limousine, and wife with the same trouble. people think he has the world pretty soft. But if ever a man rowed his full weight in the boat, if ever man gave America value received for all that he took out of America, the Ameri- can business man is that man.
 Business Is our natural talent. What sculpture and philosophy was to the Greeks, religion was to the Jews, law to the Romans; what poetry, fighting and philandering were to the Elizabethans, what witch-burning was to our own noble ancestors. business is to America to- day. It is our gift from the gods With it We are doing our part in the world, putting forth the gospel of business faith, called credit, form of Christian good will, found most highly developed among Chris tian civilizations, and making this old earth one small community of merchants whose goods are sold upon one market and whose prices are fixed by the wants of the world.
 A whacking job that! Until 1t Is done the business of bringing the world into a common brotherhood will have to pause. For commerce is the carpet upon which men shall walk to their millennium; and the

 BUSIEST MEN HAVE TIME.

Forbes Magazine.
 Md you read that dispatch from Paris a month or so ago which told of blind veteran who stepped up to a passing pedestrian as he tapped his way along the sidewalk, and asked ::
 Excuse me, am I near the Wound- ed Soldiers institute? I've only been there twice and I'm not quite sure of the way"
 '"You are close to it now: let me take you" came the reply.
 Arriving at the door the guide said to the janitor, Kindly take this man to the section for the biind.'
 Take him yourself" growled the janitor. Under the archway on the other side of the courtyard"
 The civilian did SO, but on the way out addressed the janitor again.
 Could not you be a little more ob- liging to the blinu?" he asked gently.
 There are too many and I haven't the time.' was the surly response.
 Tt seems ome it is your duty to help them" said the civilian .I can find time-and I am Marshal Foai,."
 All of which illustrates once more that the big busy men are the ones who have time to help others be- cause they have the desire to help others.

Representatives of tho state li- brary and members of the organiz l. tion known as Native Sons are tour ing California In automobile car avans for the purpose of marking the scenes where early history of the state was made and preserving these sites for future generations.
 Because of the wild and rugged character of the country in certain structions, the steep grades and dan gerous conditions of the roads, com paratiyely few persons have at- tempted the trips in any but the larger and heavier makes of cars.
 A newspaperman. however, who has just returned from a 400 mile tour through the Southern Miles and along the Mother Lode in an Over land, says the performance of this light car under the most trying con ditions proved a revelation to the ca tire party.
 Though the roads were narrow and slippery from recent storm, he continued. and some of the grades as steep as 25 per cent, we found 1t unnecessary to use low gear except when some car in front was slow in making the grade or to in- sure safety over some particularly dangerous piece of road.

Intelligent fabrication

in . motor car, which information. obviously, would have an extremely important bearing upon the lubrica- ton result because while the heat factors cannot be greatly altered. the the resistance of the lubricant to such heat Is a decisive point in the preservation of parts and smooth, en- during operation.
 The investigators found that the lubricant must be capable of per forming its full function efficiently. resisting heat factors which amount to from 1000 to 1000 degrees Fahren- heit in the combustion chamber; to 400 to 900 degrees Fahrenheit at the piston heads: 200 to 450 degrees Fahrenheit at the piston walls; 135 to 275 degrees at the bearings and even 80 to 225 degrees Fahrenheit in tho crank case. These heat factors, 1t was demonstrated, arc the clements that break down a motor oil and even though the volume of oil be present the oil pressure gauge with which most automobiles are equipped, may show full operation, there may be little or no actual fabrication taking place. Such conditions aggravate the condition of heat by intensifying 1t and developing a more rapid wear and destruction of the working parts.
 The very fact that proper lubrica- ton means 80 great a sum In serv- ice replacement alone. 1t Is urged by fabrication engineers. ought to be sufficient evidence that good motor oil is actually not an expense but an important saving in prolonged sffi- ciency.

Service of motor equipment can be doubled by more intelligent lubricn- ton as shown by tests conducted over Q period of years by lubricating en- glneers of the Pure Oil company and which have just reached a conciu- sive stage. It Is estimated this would amount to a saving in replacement of motor cars, trucks and tractors of more than A billion dollars annually
 This figure does not take into ao- count the huge amount saved in re- pair and parts replacement expense. It represents the replacement of worn equipment with now equipment only. The Investigations show that such replaceuents are because of a greatly reduced efficiency in used automo- biles and do not necessarily involve the Junking of such cars. The sum estimated merely covers the cost of buying back and replacing in serv- ice the greater efficiency destroyed in a period that represents only s5 to 50 per cent of the time such equip ment should render maximum effi- ciency.
 It was found that very little of this loss of efficiency was due to the de- sign or factory practice of the build CTS of cars. trucks or tractors. Some of it could be traced to carelessness or negligence in handling and main taining equipment but even in such instances 1t was hard to disconnect this matter entirely from the matter of fabrication.

on the increase since and no doubt it has
become a recognized fact, that rubber
tires and high speed are expensive, and
require well built and smooth roads 70
save excessive wear and tear. It IS
therefore obvious that if St. CroiX is to
be kept in sugar cultivation, that we
need better constructed roads for the fu-
ture. and it would seem that we should try
our best to own and opera at least one
road roller to help put our roads in the
desired and much needed shape to stand
the changed method OF road traffic. I'm
fortunately our present conditions are
the reverse of those in Porto Rico, here
we see fine sugar estates being turned
out and a general decay taking place,
no market for anything, in fact at pres
ent one can hardly sell a pig at a living
profit. Production is decreasing and
expenses increasing what is the reason
the answer is written all over the island
and can be easily read by those who de
sire to do so. Porto Rico has the adVan-
tage over US by having a diversity OF
crops and an abundance Of labor, also a
market both local and foreign for all
they can produce, and every one there
including the laborers seem keen on
keeping up the production OF he island
to a high state of effic eney; II a rabbit
had to live on the grass and weeds to pc
found in their cultivated fields he would

In conclusion permit me to say, that l
still have a strong hope that local condl-
tons WILL so shape themselves tor the
better, that in the near future we may
see our little island increasing its pro-
ducti0n. decreasing the cost. and become
such a desirable place to live in, that
some of our wealthy Americans who
wish to escape the cold winter months
and enjoy a fine climate will choose this
island for that purpose.
