CURTAIL DANCE CRAZE.

Berlin.-Berlin has too many dance
halls and too few apartments, it was
decided recently by the municipal au-
thorities, and drastic measures were
taken to bring about a change.
Certain fox trot places of amusement
have been ordered closed, and the
rooms are to be made over into quar-
tiers where people may live. Since the
dancing craze struck the German cap
ital there has been great demand for
rooms of most any kind, particularly
in the downtown districts. These
were quickly furnished and advertised
as dance halls with most pretentious
names. In one instance a ''dance hall''
was brought into being in less than
two days. The furnishing consisted
chiefly of putting down some linoleum,
hanging a few fancy trimmings from
the ceiling, crowding tables and chairs
into every available place, sticking the
jazz band off into one corner, and then
permitting the walters to take charge.
The crowd did the rest.
The craze reached such stage re-
Gently that officials estimated the city
had more places of entertainment and
amusement than ever before in history.
But the new order has put many of the
smaller establishments out of business
and now, where jazz music once had
full sway after dark, there are entire
families slumbering peacefully.

Ulrich A. Won VALID
Dies Monday Night

Ulrich A. Won Valid, aged As years,

friends knew him as "Bill" Won Valid,
died early Monday evening from a COM
phcation of diseases. He had first been
taken i'll following an ice fishing trip

oped complications which had proven

New Engine to Cut
Cost of Power
eBy Associated Press. }

Stockholm r. Automobile owners in
Sweden are interested in the state
ment that a motor has been invented
and tried out here which brings down
the cost of power to one-fifth of the
present figure.
The new motor is light, compact,
has very few parts, can be operated
by any one, and is the invention of
Arthur Wennerby, Swedish engineer.
1t burns crude oil and develops speeds
ranging all the way from 70 to 1900
revolutions per minute. This is re-
markable accomplishment, in view of
the fact that ordinary crude oil mo-
tors develop only 100000 revolutions.
The new motor is fre-proof, and,
since it uses no carburetor, backfres
are impossible.
The experiments are being made
with 40-horse-power, two-cylinder,
two-cycle engine, which is no longer
than an ordinary seven-horse- power
crude oil engine. The cylinders are
water-cooled outside, and air-cooled
inside and, in spite of the high speed,
no overheating takes place. A feature
of the machine is the simplicity of
construction, the complicated devices
one usually sees on motors Having
been eliminated. The engine is prim-
ed with gasoline.

KEINOSHA GIRL
HAS WANDERLJIST
Miss Agnes BoIdt to Start
Walking Tour Across
Continent Again.
WISCONSIN TOO COLD

Miss Agnes Boldt, the pretty eight
een-year-old- Kenosha girl who last
year gained recognition by walking to
Los Angeles and back has been at
tackled by the wanderlust again. She
has again come to the Office of Chief
of Police Thad Logan and asked for a
letter of introduction which will start
her on her travels across the CONT
nent. The first time-1ess than a year
ago-she started from Kenosha alone
in the early spring to walk all the way
to the home of relative in Califor-
MIA. She succeeded and liked the ex-
perience so we'll that after a short
visit she hiked back to this city. With
her on the return trip came a girl
friend whom she had met in Califor-
MIA
Miss Boldt showed that she was not
foolhardy when she informed Chief
Logan that she did not intend to start
olt in zero weather to walk cross
country. This time she has planned
to take a train as far as Jefferson
City, Missouri, where she will meet
another girl of her age and the two
will start on the long hike from that
city to Los Angeles.
Since returning OF Kenosha Miss
Boldt has gained employment here and
has made many friends in the city but
she cannot withstand the ''lure of the
open road" and with the coming of
spring she hopes to be we'll on her
way to the Golden Gate again.

Soft Coal viii
Produce Gasoline

Pittsburgh, Pa.-The waning petro-
leun supply of the country may be
supplemented to great extent, according
to Charles R. Fettke, Associate Profess
sor of Geology and Mineralogy at Car
negie Institute of Technology, by TAX
ing the enormous quantities of btu
minous coal, now being burned in the
raw state for steam-rasing purposes
and domestic use, and subjecting it to
low-temperature carbonization. Pro
fessor Fettke set forth this idea in the
course of an address to the institute
students.
This process, he said, will produce a
fuel that is in many respects superior
to raw coal; the smoke nuisance of
cities will be abated, and valuable BY
products will be recovered which will
aid greatly in effecting a petroleum
supply that is being rapidly depleted.
Professor Fettke emphasized the
warning that the known reserves of
petroleum are being so rapidly reduced
that one of the problems to be faced
within the next decade or two will be
to find substitutes, in continually
growing amounts, for the products now
obtained from them.
"The distillation of oils from oil
shares, another important source OF
supply, will be restricted to those re-
gions where enormous quantities of
the shales are found" said Professor
Fettke. Where bituminous coal is
found in larger quantities than shale.
it will be more economical to confne
the business of oil distillation to coal
with the growing shortage of natu
raj gas and anthracite coal and their
consequent increase in price, Other
sources of domestic fuel must com,
more ond mare into use. One of thesr
undoubtedly will be low-temperatur,
coke. The low-temperature carboniza
ton of coal in this respect will hav,
the advantage of the oil shale indus
try. 1t will yield a valuable fuel as
residue, while the spent lhale from tn,
LATTER not only has little or no eco
nomic value, but means will have to b,
provided for its disposal"
