Mrs. VIM. JOHNSON, Box 1855, Park

children as they grow older.

KEEPING SPARK PLUGS CLEAN
Grease and Mineral Dirt Accumulate
on Exterior and Interior Of
the Porcelain.

Many car owners do not realize the
Importance of keeping the spark plugs
clean. The points of the plug seldom
need cleaning, but grease and mineral
dirt do accumulate on the exterior
and Interior of the porcelain, so that
the current passes that way instead
of jumping the gap as Intended. The
plugs should be kept clean or Ignition
troubles will result.

COAST TO COAST
AUTO ROAD PLAN
Lee Highway viii Be AlI-Year
Paved Route, Washington,
D. c., to San Diego.
ROUTE THROUGH CHATTANOOGA
Road Is or Primary Importance to
Each State and Its Completion
Will Be Big Factor in
Further Development.

Despite The fact that this is the
motor age, that the automobile has
been universally adopted as the high
way vehicle. and that federal, state
and county agencies have for several
years accelerated road building, actual
touring experience shows hat there
has not been developed a single trans
continental road, making an automo-
bile trip from coast to coast a pos
sibility at all times. In order to make
such a trip possible throughout the
year a program is now taking shape
under the auspices of the Lee High
way association assisted by the Amer
ican Automobile association.
Most Feasible Route.
AS a result of this cooperation, the
federal government, through the
United States bureau of public roads,
and the states of Virginia, Tennessee,
Arkansas, Oklahoma, Texas, New
Mexico, Arizona and California,
through their state road departments,
are now engaged in the selection of
the most direct feasible route from
Washington, d. c., to San Diego. Cal.
Subsequently effort is to be 'concen-
trated for the speedy completion of
all unfinished sections, and for the
systematic maintenance and the wild
ening and strengthening of the pave
ment as required by the volume and
character of the traffic the pavement
will be required to carry.
Already the route has been selected
from Washington in a southwest dag
onal down the valleys of Virginia and
Tennessee through Roanoke, Bristol
and knoxville to Chattanooga. The
next step Is to fix the route from
Chattanooga to San Diego.
Statement by johnson.
In a statement relating to h Lee
highway. Director General Johnson
says: From practically every county
seat In the series of counties between
the national capital and San Diego
the city pavement extends a consider
able distance in either direction, and
In many sections the pavement is
continuous for a hundred miles or
more. This series OF pavement is now
TO be connected. The road Is of pri-
mary Importance to each state. and
its completion viii be n main factor
In the further development Of the
state. 1t Is a road of great local I'M
portance to n series of towns and
cities stretching across the continent,
and the connecting of these various
sections Of pavement will be a prime
trctor In the further development of
the nation. since II will facilitate In
terstate travel and promote the free
commlngling OF the people of the
East and the West. II will probably
be shorter than any other Southern
transcontinental highway and can
therefore he completed more quickly.
Within the next three years, and pos
sibly sooner. there Is every reason to
anticipate n modern motorway be
tween the capital city Of the nation
and southern California"
The Lee Highway association is one
of the youngest of such organizations,
having begun Its work only 20
months ago. G. ii. Huston, assistant
secretary of commerce. Is president of
the organization.

He Said He Under
stood Women
BY FRANK II. WILLIAMS

Ben Underwood realized that all the
neighborhood was Interested in his
courtship of pretty Alice Menefee. He
knew that the folks near Alice's home
and. In fact, all the folks In the Lake
side section of Brampton, where Alice
resided, were wondering whether he
would win Alice's hand or whether she
would bestow it ON his rival, Howard
Brahm.
And Ben, realizing all this, tilted his
chair still farther back and smiled at
his good friend, old Mrs. Ferguson,
through the smoke from his cigarette.
Mrs. Ferguson had been Ben's nurse
when he was Il baby. Now hat her
husband had become wealthy, she, too,
resided in the Lakeside section of
Brampton, but she had not outgrown
her affection for Ben, and still moth
cred him, having no children OF her
own.
You ought to be up and doing" de-
clared Mrs. Ferguson, with asperity,
evidently irritated by Ben's cun1posure.
"Brahm will be running away with
the girl you ought to marry, before
you know it, If you don't look out"
Shell never marry him ~ declared
Ben positively.
Again he pulled %contentedly on his
cigarette. He could see, too, that in
spite of Mrs. Ferguson's irritation his
calm assertion had made quite an i'm
preston On her.
Nov, why do you say thatf" she
demanded.
Because | understand women" de-
clared Ben easily.
Because you understand women -
Mrs. Ferguson exploded. "A lot you
know about women YOull see, you'll
see!'
"Well, ! understand this one woman
Alice, in particular" asserted Ben,
bringing his chair down on all Tours.
And | tell you she'll never marry
Brahm. I'm as sure of it as-as-as
anything at all
But look at what he's doing for
her" Ben's old nurse cried.
Hes always taking her out in that
big automobile of his. And then look
at that big house he's putting up. My,
but its n big onel And all the folks
are saying he's putting 1t up for her.
You ought to be putting up an ever
better one. You can afford IT."
81 know | can afford It," said Ben,
but I'm not going to do 1t. 1 tell you
l understand women and l know what
they want. Now, don't you worry"
He stood up and patted Mrs. Fer
guson reassuringly on her ample shout
der.
Mrs. Ferguson smiled n bit at this
and caught his big, brown hand il
hers.
81 hope you're right, I do hope you're
right. Ben" she said. 81 want you to
have everything you al And !
know you want Alice"
YES" said Ben, as a wistful look
came into his eyes. 81 want Alice
bad"
For n m he said nothing, his
glance distracted. Then he patted
Mrs. Ferguson's shoulder once again.
But I've got to work things out In
my own way" he said. I'm sure I'm
right. I'm not going to sit by quietly
and let Brahm walk right over me.
I'm going to do something, all right.
But I'm afraid you'd not approve of
IT.
What Is it," demanded Mrs. Fer
guson.
THAT'S n secret" Ben smiled. "rn

Says He Will Knock Out
Tender Inside Of
That
TENDLER FEELS
QUITE CONFIDENT
Great Pugilistic Encounter
Will Be Staged This
Evening

New York, July 27.--The second
"'battle of the century at Boyles'
Thirty Acres in Jersey City---this time
with the lightweight championship at
stake--will take place tonight when
Benny Leonard defends his title
against Lew Tender, Philadelphia
challenger, in l2-round contest.
Both boxers pronounced themselves
At and confident on the eve OF match
perhaps unparalleled in interest in the
history Of the lightweight ranks and
rvalling as fstic attraction the
memorable encounter year ago on
the same battle-ground when Jack
Dempsey successfully defended his
heavyweight crown against Georges
Carpenter.
Old timers recalled the Joe Cans
Battling Nelson battle at Goldfield
some years ago and contrasted it with
to-night's bout.
Leonard finished his training with
the fiat declaration that he would twin
by a knockout within seven rounds"
Tender was no less confident of his
ability to land decisive blow. Both
men must weigh in at or under the
lightweight limit--l35 pounds 2
o'clock this afternoon and have post
ed forfeits of $4,000 as guarantees.
Under the New Jersey boxing laws
no decision can be given If the bout
goes the limit. Thus Tenders only
chance to displace Leonard as cham
pion is by scoring knockout or by
a foul.
Tex Richard has estimated the at
tendance at $4,000 and the gate re-
ceipts at between 100000 and $780,
900. The bout is insured against rain
and in addition Richard insured each
of the principals for $4,000 against
accident or inability to perform.
Under the terms Of the contract for |
the battle, the principals will box on
a percentage, basis. According to |
Richard, they will get 62h per cent
of the gross receipts, Leonard's share
being 42Ea and Tenders 20 per cent.
The contest will mark the first time
Leonard and Tender have ever met in
the ring. They were signed several |
months ago for contest in Philadel- !,
phia but it was called off when Leon
ard injured his hand training
The rivals are radically different in
their styles of fighting. The Philadel-
phian swings his best blows from the
portside and has won most of his
bouts with body attacks. The title
holders favorite punch is right cross
to the jaw.
Leonard won the title from Freddy
Welsh, the Englishman, in 1917, at
the Manhattan casino. with knock
out in the ninth round of ten-round
match. He had fought Welsh four
times previously.
Since then Leonard has been one Of
the most active titleholders. In the
