speech, so he thought.
Being shy of information this orator

from the papers which told of how We

Center taps ball off about two
feet forward and about three feet
to the right. The right forward
comes in fast, gets the ball while in
the air, tips it back over his head
and out toward the side line (not
too far out); the right guard comes
up wide, gets the bali on the first
bounce and dribbles through to the
basket.
The left forward has drawn his
man up to the center of the floor
with him. If the forwards have
done their part, the floor will be
clear for him and an easy goal
should be scored. The center does
not go through on this play, but
should drop back to position left

The doughboy has been uniformly
successful in the ring and only
rarely have the British officers been
able to take the measure of their
American cousins at polo. The Yanks
on the Rhineland also have competed
frequently in allied tennis and golt
matches and aquatic meets. Before
going to the Rhine they had not the

English correspondents, but their
sporting instincts came to the fore
and they mastered both games. with
the result that they have defeated

them at rugby.
His moderation in victory and
his manliness in defeat have con-
tributed to the esteem in which the

DRIVING ADVICE FOR
CAREFUL MOTORIST
Gasoline Tank Should Be Cleaned
Out Every Month.
Expensive Matter to Fit New Bearings
and They Should Be Treated
carefully-Do Not Let Spare
Cover Up License Plate.

Make it your practice at least once
a month to remove the strainer in the
gasoline line and clean out all foreign
matter that has lodged there, says Mo
tor Travel, the Automobile club of
America monthly. In spite of the best
care some dirt Is constantly getting
into the gasoline tank and it always
stops at the strainer. This will event
ually clog it, shutting off the gasoline
and stopping the engine. AS this is
a troublesome occurrence it is best to
avoid IT by cleaning the strainer oc-
casionally. There is one where the
feed pipe enters the vacuum tank and
sometimes another one where the gas
oline enters the carburetor.
When going up a steep hill do not
crowd the engine to see If you can
possibly get to the top without shift

plosion, acting against the resistance
of the slow-moving crank-shaft, tend
to f1atten out the bearings, shortening
their life, wearing them out, and max
ing the engine knock long before 1t
should under proper use. AS 1t is
an expensive matter to fit new bear
ings, this is an important detail to at
tend to.
A relief cock with a handle that is
up when the valve Is closed is apt TO
work open II the plug loosens through
wear or the spring breaks. The best
remedy for such a trouble is to buy
new one with the hole set in the prop
er direction, so that 1t is closed when
the handle is pointing downward. An
other method is to fill the hole in the
plug with a piece of brass carefully
fitted and to drill new hole In such
position that the handle will be point
ing downward when the hole is closed.
Be careful that the spare does not
hide all or part of the rear license
plate. Recently the police of some
of the towns and cities have paid
more attention TO this matter. so ii
may save you fine to adjust matters
correctly in advance.
: They are also becoming more par
ticular about the rear plate being suf-
ficiently lighted at night. This plate
should be Illuminated by white light
making it legible at so feet. If this is
NOT done the driver is subject not only
to great delay but there is every pos
slbility Of fine.
