SPARK PLUGS
Old Habit of Throwing Them

EXPERT EXPLAINS USE
Gives Useful Hints to Motor
Owners for Preservation
of Vital Units in Car

1t used to be quite a common
thing for the motorist to change
spark plugs whenever the engine
misfired or acted queerly. Those
days have happily passed, thanks to
the aggressiveness of the n1anufac
turers of plugs. These vital units
which permit a high voltage spark
to explode the gasoline mixture now
are made so well that 1t Is not un'
common to find them operating for
as many as 10000 miles without re
Quiring replacement.
There are over 100 different de-
signs of spark plugs on the market
but only about ten are seriously con,
sidered by motorists, writes II. A.
Tarantous in Cosmopolitan. A great
number of spark plug manufacture
ers seem to think that the motorist
wants a queer design of plug more

lily and that will last a long time
before the electrodes burn away.
The large manufacturers and some
of the smaller ones have worked
hard to develop insulating material
and electrode metal that will work
satisfactorily for long periods.
The spark plug is simply a con,
venient means Of introducing into
the combustion chamber two cur.
rent-carrying wires which have a
gap between them. We designate
the plug types by the means used
TO insulate one of these wires. There
are two distinct classes of insulators

The current passes through the

Government Wins Case
Before Supreme Court

WASHINGTON, April 1S.-The
government has won a decision in
the case brought by the United Shoe
Machinery Corporation for setting
aside the restraining order prohibit
ing them from using certain leases in
contracts for rental of patented ma.
chinery.
The extent to which manufactur-
ers OF patented machinery can re-
strict its use by those to whom it is
rented was involved in the proceed
ings under the Clayton Act. The
case was twice orally argued before
the court.
There was a material conflict in
the statement of essential facts. The
government rested its case largely
upon the assertion that the leases
had the effect of requiring shoe
manufacturers exclusively to use the
corporations machines, the corpora
ton replying to the exclusive use
was matter Of choice.

Here After First of Next
Fiscal Year.

Beginning with the first of the next
fiscal year-July Federal bureaus
whose activities are centered in Al
aska heretofore making their head
quarters in Seattle or other cities
on the Pacific Coast will be trans
ferred to Alaska with Juneau as
headquarters, according to informa-
tion received here from reliable
sources. This move is in accord
with a policy of the present Ad-
ministration which was announced
sometime ago.
The main bureau to make such
transfer will be the Bureau of Edu-
cation, under Supt. w. T. Lopp,
whose organization headquarters are
now maintained in Seattle. Mr.. Lopp,
it is stated, is in favor of the move
and believes IT will work out ad-
vantageously in the prosecution OF
the bureaus work in the Territory.
Efforts to have a separate district

DR.. A. E. Winship, editor of the

clared here before the Kentucky Edu-

Babe Ruth has a larger salary

he makes as many home runs as in
1921 he will have 100000 more than
the President of the United States.
The remuneration is not the result OF
trick work, is not made at the dis
advantage of anybody, not due to
striking oil, and not due to politics
nor business combination. 1t is pure
intensified brain power such as no
other American equals.
