dustry. The worst feature is the intermittent employment, which prevents miners from earning living wage, no matter how high the scale may be. Activity in the coal mines IS followed by a period of idleness, often pro longed. In the meantime, how is coal miner to support himself and his family? The only trade he knows is closed to him and this en- forced fdleness breeds unrest and dssatisfac tion. On the other hand, operators are not going to produce coal when there is no de- mand for it.
 The present coal strike is due to the desire of the miners union to hold the operators to the wage scale determined in what is known as the central competitive field while the oper- ators want to make wage agreements for their respective districts. Naturally, such an ar engagement would lessen the power of the United Mine Workers of America But th;s quarrel is not the main issue before the Amer ican people. The coal industry itself is the problem. There will always be strikes and demoralization from which the public will have to suffer until the production of coal is sys- tematized and the haphazard way in which the business is conducted now is abandoned.

AT ITCi.lM TNilATEIt.

This is the first season, since 1919, that Thayer X Sacks revue. now pre- senting Junior l1ollies. of 1922 at the l.yceum, has played at popular prices. The company, for the past three sea sons, with the same cast oi princi- pals, and most of the chorus, played the Klaw and Erlanger circuit, as a complete production.
 Thus it is that the revue is mak- ing such a strong hit With the Ly- oeum patrons. For genuine, whole some laughter, it is doubtful whether anything could be more effective than the ,ravesty band in which Messrs. Sacks and. Murray are the leading figures
 Wherever Sacks has played, he has made friends, and his name is well known in most Of the theaters of New England. He is a comedian whose powers of amusement are counted as uneXcelled, by some critics.
 Besides the California Peach chorus whose fame is noted, there are Bob Alexander, q weIlmannered comedian, and Ruth Elmore, a com edienne who is not only gifted with the power to make folks laugh, but is singularly blessed with comeIiness of person. Marie Gerard, French acrobatic dancer presents a speciality of a high order. The management feels that here is a show which is far superior to the usual s2 attrac- ton.

 She wasted no time in giving it.
 "Of course, we'll go, Katie" she said cheerily, and there was that in her voice which told me the proposed expedition promised something def- nitely valuable to her. "Just tell us when you want us and we'll slip off with you"
 Katie began to pleat her apron, a sure sign of embarrassment with her.

after a long period of testing and

GIVING GREATER
FUEL ECONOMY

S. E. Lannis, president of Motor
Sales company, explains why the new
ESQ Mitchell, now being shown IN
Phoenix gives greater mileage per
gallon of gas and oil.
"One of the essentials of an ef-
ficient motor is economy of opera
tion. In the new F-50 this is attained
through several channels, chief
among which is perfect combustion
due to the newly designed carbura-
ton system, which insures an equal
distribution of highly vaporized gas
to each cylinder at all speeds.
"The second reason is that the
method OF laying out the block of
the ESQ insures an equal thickness
of the cylinder walls, which are uni
formly cooled by perfect water cir
culation that flows freely about the
exhaust valves, and in connection
with the Fulton Sylphon thermo-
static valve prevents extremes in
motor temperature.
Economy in oil consumption is
provided by the use Of an extra
piston ring just below the wrist pin
This ring serves as a wiper and pre-
vents pumping of oil to the COM
hustion chamber, thereby insuring an
undiIuted supply of lubricant.
1T is therefore common occur
renee when a Mitchell owner derives
from 900 TO 1000 miles per gallon of
OIL"
mfr. Lannis' further states that the
internal friction loss in this engine
is very low because of perfect align
ment and dynamic balance, and the
dinlinution of heat distortion.
This feature alone contributes to a
great extent toward the economical
operation of the new ESQ.
