on comfortably, for then the gasoline
and gasoline vapor in contact with the
surfaces separate into the vapor most
readily burned when 1t reaches the
cylinders. Any owner of a car can
add to the earburetor a heater that
will supply an abundance of warmth
and result in economical operation.
with added advantage that the car
can be throttled down to n lower speed.
The body of the heater Is sheet iron
formed to a pattern as indicated. and
secured with clamps to the exhaust
pipe. The connection with carbure-
tor Is by means of a pipe rounded TO
shape over the mandrel, and bent
wherever necessary to bring it in line
with the ca%rburetor. This connecting
pipe Is fitted with an adjustable open
ing that can be arranged in any con-
yenient way for use.
AS a preliminary To forming these
heaters, a pattern should be made of
heavy paper and fitted In place. When
the pattern is correctly fitted, the
metal is her cut from the paper pat
tern. The immediate effect of the
added heat will be noted In the car

duction as n half turn of the needle
valve is obtainable after operating the

SAFE STOP DEPENDS
ON DRIVER OF AUTO
In Tests Sc Feet Has Been
Fixed as Minimum Distance. !
Takes One-Half Of Second for Ex-
perienced Man to Sense an
Emergency Before He Begins
to Apply His Brakes.

What Is the shortest distance re-
CURED to stop your car going at a
certain speed In an emergency?
The answer to this, in the opinion
of E. w. Weaver, Cleveland engineer.
depends on two things:
First-Condition of brakes and the
road surface.
Second-Time required for the
driver to sense an emergency before
applying the brakes.
OF these conditions the second is
most important, says Weaver. Tests
have set certain minimum distances
for stopping, based on knowledge OF
brakes and road surfaces, in relation
TO the various speeds of the motor
car.
For instance, SO feet has been fixed
as the minimum distance required to
stop. a car with good brakes, going 80
miles an hour on a dry level oad
With poor brakes on a slippery road.
the distance is 258 feet.
But the human element must also
be considered, says Weaver. He fig
ures ii takes one-half a second for an
experienced driver to sense an emer-
gency before he begins 20 apply the
brakes. In this one-half second OF
tipe, at a speed of 80 miles al hour,
the car will have gone % feet.
Therefore, in stopping an automo-
bile from a speed of 80 miles an
hour. for example, the total distance
required would be 10S feet. with good
brakes and a dry, level road; $50
feet. with poor brakes and a slippery
read.
other distances can be judged with
the aid of the chart Weaver has pre-
pared, dependent on the cars speed
and the drivers own alertness in
sensing the emergency.

DEFECTIVE TUBE RUINS TIRE
Owner Has Greater Assurance of Full
and Satisfactory Service From
Good Casing.

A defective tube will ruin the best
tire. Just as it's the heart that keeps
the body going. so it's the tube that
keeps the casing up. A man would
certainly not select a weak heart be-
cause 1t vas cheap. but would want
the best. So the motorlst should pur-
chase the tube that will best prolong
the life of the casing. The better the
tube one buys, the greater assurance
he has of full and satisfactory service
from his casing. A good casing Is ter
ribly handicapped with a defective or
worn-out tube.

Unrestrained Passions of Religious Intolerance

racial and religious. 1t Is seeking TO establish the u-Amerlean idea that
We can improve the conditions in the state by turning the relns OF govern

regulate the individual.
In The South and in the Far West it has committed many crimes up
on the individual, and only recently has invaded this state, which bulded
strongly upon respect for law and order, and has given us the shocking
exhibition at Liberal, Kans, of taking the mayor of the town by violence,
carrying him to a secluded place and whipping HIM because he refused '

II has introduced in Kansas the greatest curse that can come to any
civilized people-the curse that arises out oil the unrsuaneo passions Oh

Florida and TIE venezuelan coast. We have made one-tbe Panama
canal-through the other strip connecting the two continents
The routes from the Atlantic to the Pacific not only pass through the
canal which we have made, but also through the many nature has made
The real control of these routes does not depend upon the Panama caral
cut through at one of these strips, but also upon the many canals cut
by nature through the other.
Furthermore, the possession Of these islands by powers other than
ourselves not only gives them partial control of these routes. but what is
more, gives them the bases from which to operate against these roptoso and
also against the Panama canal.
Also the map plainly illustrates that between the Atlantic and Gulf
ports OF the United States and the canal there is a fence of foreign pos
sessions through which our ships must pass. In the same way. but to a
lesser extent, various islands in the Pacific, of which the Galapagos are the
chief ones, furnish bases for attack against the best routes leading to
the canal and the canal itself The Galapagos islands belong to Ecuador.
Holland, France, and Great Britain divide with the three republics of
Cuba, Eati, and Dominica the West Indies.
As long as we are friendly with the present possessors of these islands
they are Of no value TO them. If the present friendly relations should
cease, the possession Of these islands by us could not menace England,
France, or Holland. On the other hand, the possession of these islands
by them would distinctly menace us.

Only Safe Solution to the tumble Is a Uniform
Marriage and Divorce Law
By eENEvIEyE %rARKHuRsr. in the Pietoria Rsvisw.

For some years, now, men and women of intellectual and social en-
deayor have talked and exhorted the public to action, the lawmakers TO
legislation. A few feeble efforts have been made to put through some sort
Of national law by which the marriage and divorce laws of the different
states could be adjusted. But they have fallen by the wayide Of commit
Tee dilatoriness or have entirely failed Of consideration.
Some states have adequate laws, but their wisdom can bear only partial
harvest if they do not receive the recognition of other states For in a
nation still in the making, and where there is such vast territory to be set
tied and cultivated as there is in this country, population naturally shifts
from mo nlace to another and If one states law is to become another
states crime, confusion must be the eyentuahty, and is
Looking all these facts squmely in the face, the only safe and sane
solution to the tumble, therefore, isl uniform marriage and divorce law
and one that will do justice to every citizen, rich or poor, male OF female,
young or old. and. above all, to the children, who re the most important
constituents of true marriage and of paramount concern in our national
integrity.

HAWAIIAN VOLCANO
 IS DUE TO ERUPT, 7 ACCORDING SCIENTISTS

HONOLULU, Jan. 9.-Mauna Loa, the Vesuvius of the Hawaiian Islands, is due for another great eruption.
 Such was the prediction of l.. w. de Vis-Norton, celebrated on the islands as local geologist, based on native tradition as handed down by Princess Kohanumokua.
 Mauna Loa, famed in song and story, will erupt next spring, prognos- ticates de Vis-Norton.
 De Vis-Norton founds his prophecy on the nine-year theory of the erup- tion of Mokuaweoweo, the boiling pit on the summit of Mauna Loa.
 That great cauldron, the second largest active volcano in the world, has belched forth molten lava every nine years since science was first at tracted to this famous volcanic zone
 Professor Thomas A. Jaggar, vol canologist, who is now at the Vol cano House on the big island, sup ports the theory.
 Mauna Loa erupted last in Septem- Der, 1916. The eruption was followed by the periodical lava flow in 1919. The theory is that the lava breaks

or would be be required to deal with different individual operators?
 If we should handle such a party you can see that it would be necessary for us to reserve accommodations on the steamer for the party northbound and then on some other later steamer for the party returning southbound which might mean loss of the use of space on those two steamers, as against handling round-trip business, which would not go into the Interior and, therefore, if the party matrial- izes we will also try to work up an other party of about the same size to make the trip at an earlier or later ocean on the steamer on which the party would be returning, so that we could use the berth accommodations on this steamer to better advantage. This would also give the railroad and the stage line more business, and we would try to work it out so that the stages would handle the two parties on a round-trip, handling one party in one direction from Fairbanks to Val dez or Chitina, and the other party on the return trip. In such case would there be any difference in the auto- mobile rates?
 I think this will give you a fairly good idea as to what information IS required in order to fix up an itinerary and arrange to handle such party and I am sure you will be glad to get for me, or put me in touch with people who will be able to furnish the particulars.
 While writing, I might also men, tion, which you have undoubtedly al ready learned, that we are building a new passenger steamer which we think will be ready to go into service by the middle of June, with which by operating three steamers, we Will De able to maintain weekly sailings from Seattle.

 Ponca City boasts the distinction of having more laborers who are golf fans than any other city in the world-the result of an oil million aires riches which have enabled him to realize an ambition to make others happy. The man is Ernest w. Mar land, head of the oil company that bears his name, and the golf playing laborers are his employees, who, with the general public, are invited to use his private course, recognized as one of the best and most beautiful ill the Southwest. It is no unusual sight to see a fOursome of bankers teeing off behind a group of men in jumpers and overalls.
 Marland's golf course is part of his estate Deciding to make Ponca City his permanent home in 1916, Marland selected a cornfield on the city's outskirts as the desired site. Today the southern part of the field has been transformed into the most elaborate garden in the Southwest, and by the side of the garden is his palatial residence, reputed to have cost approximately one million dol lars.
 At the opposite end of the estate is the golf course. This, too. has been landscaped and beautified. A small stream flows through the course and has been damned to form several small lakes. Clumps of trees and shrubs combine beauty with utility in providing hazards.
 Two years ago MT. Marland an- nounced that he would build an athletic park, which, like his golf course and his garden, should be open to the public. Twenty acres adjoining the Marland refining plant were purchased and work con- menced. The park was opened this spring. It is one of the most mod ern in the state, containing playing

RYDER CLAIMS ARE BONDED
 FOR $75,O0O

A late issue of the Hyder Miner contains the following regarding property in which Bernard M. Stone, a newspaper man, was half owner until last winter when he disposed of his interests:
 The Virginia group of four claims, and the Duff claim adjoining, have been bonded by A. G. Larson, who took options on them just before leaving for the south about three weeks ago. The bond is for $75,00O and calls for a five per cent cash payment, which was made last week. The balance of the payments are spread over period of three years.
 Active development of the property is to be prosecuted throughout the winter under the direct supervision of MT. Larson, who is expected to arrive next Sunday to start the work. Wm. Bunting, who negotiated the deal, went up to the property recently to make preliminary ar engagements for opening up the camp. The Salmon Valley wagon road runs across the eastern part of the Nlr- ginia and past the camp, and there is no transportation problem to solve. The property is Il miles from the ocean port of Hyder.
 The claims are near the lnterna- tional boundary line on the Alaskan side, and adjoin the Daily Alaska and Stoner groups on the northwest and west. They were located by Wm. Bunting, one of the disciverers Of the Premier for his wife, Margaret Duff Bunting. In 1921 B. M, Stone acquired a half interest, and last winter sold a quarter to Chas. E. Fin gel, now of Ketchikan, and w. J. Benson, of the firm of Bigham X Ben son, Hyder. The remaining quarter he sold to J. A, Hall, president or the Salmon River Bank.
 Three parallel mineral zones nave been definitely established on the Virginia by open cutting and strip ping, and this summer a tunnel was driven in over 40 feet on one Of them. showing a good grade of ore throughout.
 MT. Larson, who is one of the lead ing mining engineers of the North west and is consulting engineer of the Dalv Alaksa, made thorough examination of the Virginia on ms last trip here, resulting in his taking a bond on this and the Taurus group adjoining.
 MT. Larson also bonded the Taurus nronerty, consisting of one claim and a fraction, at the same time that he took over the Virginia. The Taurus adjoins the latter, and al thOugh not enough work has been done on it to demonstrate it's value as a mining prospect, it is well Wlth- in the mineral belt and it's position comments it as possibly a valuable adition to the adjoining ground. It was through Wm. Bunting that MT. Larson secured the Taurus.
