Mrs. Carl Immediately followed.
Cling believes that the probable mo-
tive for the murder was the desire to
obtain insurance and property.
It was while the wife OF Gibson that
the woman came to Greenfield about
nine years ago. Gibson is said to have
had several thousand dollars insur-
ance and small tract of land near
Greenfield.
Upon arrest, Mrs. Carl exhibited
calm behavior and has persistently
said nothing concerning the case. Lit
tie is known concerning the woman
previous to her coming to Greenfield.
A search of the house she occupied
is said to have revealed nothing of an
discriminating nature.

While most commodities used by
past decade, automobile tires are a
notable exception.
Figures just compiled bring out the
significant fact that tire prices have a
steady downward trend since the year
1910, with only comparatively small
increase during the war and after-war
days.
Tires of standard make can now be
bought at lower prices than before the
war, and indeed lower than at any
time since 1910.
And this has been done without
sacrifice of quality. for every tire user
knows that he is getting twice the
average mileage from his tires that
he was getting few years ago.
This unusual result has been ac-
complished through the tremendously
increased demand and use, which per-
mitted quantity production, and In
larger part by means of the successive
improvements in manufacturing proc
esses, which brought quality up and
costs down.

Try the Crank.

If an engine is not running well and
a compression loss is suspected, the
simplest way to detect it is to use the
crank and turn the engine over by
hand, and thus feel the compression
on each individual cylinder. You will
nearly always find that some pistons
will go over compression much easier
than others, and this means that some

The number of miles which car
should run without having the valves
reground varies greatly, depending on
oiling and other engine conditions.
With the average car under normal
running conditions, however, 1t is
probably wise to have the valves
ground at least once every 5000 to
10000 miles, depending on the operat-
ing condition of the motor.

MOTORISTS LOSE
GALLONS OF GAS
inefficient Working of Automobile
Engine Is Cause of Leakage
of Costly Fuel.
FAULTY COMPRESSION BLAMED
Disarranged Motor May Appear to
Run Fairly Well, but Trouble Oc-
ours When Car Is Being Run
at Moderately Low Speed.

Thousands of gallons of gasoline are
wasted every day by motorists be-
cause Of the inefficient operation Of
their engines.
An important detail to watch to
keep the engine running efficiently is
the compression. A motor with faulty
compression may appear to run fairly
well when driving the car at reason
able speed or when 1t is working hard.
Lost compression shows up when the
car Is being driven at comparatively
low speed.
How to Tell IL.
Under either of these conditions the
engine will run with an irregularity
that makes the car jerk or jump In
stead of running steadily, as 1t should.
This indicates that there is consider
able loss of power and that much
more gasoline has to be burned than
when the engine Is developing its full
power.
In fact, gasoline mileage may be cut
dearly In half through compression
