 Probably no one ever feels more like going on a strike than the wife of a no-account husband and mother is she is about the last one who ever does, for the foolish reason there are so many dependent on her keeping on the job
 No, Clarence, even if you buy your bride ready-towear clothing, it will not make it possible for her to get ready on time. Learn patience, brother. you'll need lots of it.
 Just because girl enjoys going to the theater and a big feed afrer. ward with young man is no sign she would enjoy going through life with him.

HOW WE CAN HELP,

Percy H. Johnston, President of the Chemical N, tional Bank Of New York. who has just returne from visit to Europe, thinks the United States an Great Britain and American and British business me should aid in the rehabilitation of Europe In statement issued and circulated by his bank NJ Johnston, says:
 Except in the case of England, the situa- tion with the belligerent nations is not un- like that of American company whose creditors discover that have been met and that the company is indebted for than it pay
 The commonsense procedure under such circumstance and the only one followed by sensible business is for the creditors to meet, to agree'to extension of the debts or in bad case to effect composition settle ment. always arranging the settlement where possible tc let the business continue.
 The European situation later will require composition settlement. and at that time the external and internal debts together with currency imitation. will all have to be taken into account.
 If Europe would agree to a sound pro- gram of debt readjusment and the eliminat- ing of worthless currencies, both America and England could well afford to agree to

HIGH PRAISE FOR
 THE PAIGE CAR

Paige officials are very proud of the high praise given their 6-66 model by P. II. Everett. Phoenix, ArIz. Many other Paige owners have placed themselves on record with complimentary remarks about the 6-66, but thea Paige executives are especially pleased with MT. Everetts enthusiastic comment because he Is senior highway engineer of the United States bureau of public roads. department of agriculture. The ne- cessities of his profession require him to do a great deal of driving and in the last few years he has owned many automobiles. In letter to the Paige, MT. Everett said in part;
 Although I have owned In the past years five different makes of cars which are much higher In price and which have all been the heavier type of car classed as the best manufac tured, I consider that the Paige IS the most practical and economical car u at have ever consistently op- erated.
 "The mileage now shown on my car Is past the 2,600 mark and there has never been one minute that me- chanical attention was needed, other than ordinary oiling and sreasing. Gasoline consumption shows an av- craze of Is miles. per gallon, which is much better mileage than I have ever obtained with previous cars that I have experienced.
 For a motor car of perfect satis- faction. excellence of performance and ease of riding and handling, I would not hesitate to recommend the purchase of Paige car. The Paige is everything you have claimed for it. Never once have I found any discrepancy in either workmanship or materials"

LOW GRADE GAS
 PROBLEM SOLVED
Ingenuity of Automotlve Engi- neerS 0VerGomes Motor
 ing Bugbear

During ths past several years the motoring public has been confronted with A decreasing quality of Easo- line at an increasing price.
 Realizing that the tremendous and constantly increasing consumption Af gasoline for motor use placed the problem squareiy up to them. auto motive engineers of America. with the resourcefulness and ingenuity which has always been an outstand- ing characteristic of the industry have steadily produced engines with increased ability to consume low grade fuel efficiently.
 With the announcement of it's now Series 10 motor recently, the Frank lin Automobile company introduced a device for promoting efficient con sumption of low grade gasoline which has excited unusual comment, both with the motoring public and in automotlve engineering circles.
 This new device, which Is known as fuel transformer, is situated be- tween the carburetor and the in- take manifold and prevents entry of raw gasoline Into the cylinders The device is so arranged that va~ porixed gas passes into the intake manifold without hindranoe. Unva-
The Birmingham age-herald., 1922-09-17

porized gasoline, however, is check ed and returned through two pass ages into the main channel, where 1t Is drawn upward by suction across corrugated surfaces, which are heated to high temperature by exhaust gases.
 It Is possible to send tho heavy ends." gas that does not easily va- porize, around this circuit several times if necessary in order to break it up.
 The fuel transformer is not only of great value in producing greater mileage and more power from a given quantity of gasoline, but pre- vents the entry of raw gasoline into tho cylinders from where 1t passes down into the crankcase and causes ''crankcase soup" mixing with the oil and robbing 1t of much of its lubricating qualities.
 Operation of the fuel transformer is simplicity Itself, and 1t requires absolutely no attention.
 Tests have shown that the tenn perature of the mixture passing through the fuel transformer to the inlet manifold Is very nearly uni- form at all times, ranging from 156 to 1ee degrees Fahrenheit when the driving speed Is above 15 miles an hour
 It is said to be the only device of it's kind used by passenger car man. ufacturers.
 The fuel transformer was origi- mated and perfected by Franklin en- gineers and patent applications cov- ering 1t have been made by tho com- pany.

FRANK PAPE|S
 SETTING PACE Seven Cars Delivered in Sin gle Day Was Record Made
 on Friday

The batting honors for the week go to Frank Pape of Birmingham Motor company with seven rour-ply, clouts over the fence in one day. Of these, four were new Bucks and the other three second hand cars. The four deliveries of new cars were to the following: Ray Fies bought Buick six roadster, Dan Dimick six cylinder touring sedan, MT. Keith of Marshall. Jordan & Keith, seven- passenger Buick sedan, and the Du- pont Powder company bought six cylinder open car.
 Frank had to go all the way to Atlanta to get these cars for de- l.veries and he was an exceedingly busy young man on Friday getting them all out.
