LATE DANCING Is
MADE POPULAR BY
ENGLISH ROYALTY
London, January 27.-rhe popu-

London. January 27.-The popu-
larity of the sabaret and the evening
dances in Londons fashionable West
End restaurants Is returning, and
the reason therefore seems to be in
in no small measure due to the
Prince of Wales and his brothers.
Immediately after his return from
the Far East the prince appeared
at several well known restaurants
for the last supper and dance, ac-
companied generally by the Duke of
York or Prince Henry, and a party
of friends. Also since the return of
the prince from Scotland he has been
seen at several of these dances, and
so have his two brothers.
The royal visitors applaud heartily
the entertainment and music but emily
occasionally take part in the dancing.
The mere fact that they are present,
however, is enough for the West
Ender, and the places are crowded
nightly in the hope that some mem
Der of the royal family will be pres

Buick Again Occupies Position
of. Honor on Strength
of Business
Done

CHICAGO, ILL.,, Jan. 27.-The second
of the two big national automobile
shows opened here today in the his
toric Coliseum and Seventh Regiment
armory, with a repetition of the con-
gession that characterized the open
ing at New York.
Buick again occupied the position
Of honor, on the strength of leading
all others in business done, and the
other manufacturers exhibits were in
the same relatively advantageous
space as at New York.
Chicago, in the 23 years that the
Automobile Chamber of Commerce
has been putting on these exhibitions,
has always been a better selling
show than New York, but it is the
consensus of opinion that it will have
a hard time maintaining it's SUI
premacy this year.
An exhibit that attracted great at
ton here today, as it did at New
York, was the Buick revolving
chassis. This remarkable cutout
chassis, which is constantly in ac-
ton whether revolving or not, seems
to fascinate spectators. some of
whom stand for hours watching its
operation. Never before has so much
of an automobile chassis been re-
vealed to the eye at one time. So
important is it regarded as a sales
aid that the Buick people have had a
moving picture taken of it for the
use of dealers in communities where
the chassis itself cannot be seen.
General Sales Manager E. T. Strong
of the Buick said today regarding
this revolving chassis: 1.-THE deep
interest taken in this exhibit proves
that nearly every buyer nowadays is
intelligently concerning himself with
the mechanism of cars. He wants
style, comfort and eonveniences, to
be sure. but those things count only
when they are mounted on an eff
cient chassis. Stand around for
awhile and you will find that most
of the questions asked by those who
look this chassis over are based upon
pretty clear conception of automo-
tive mechanics. The development in
general knowledge is more apparent
every year"

FRANKLIN WARNS
AGAINST INFERIOR.
SP A R K P | j c 8.
Instruction Book Tells Car
Owners Why They Should
Use Champions
Only

Many motorists persist in regard
ing spark plugs as a minor Access
sorry instead of vital part of the
ignition system.
Because of this attitude on the
part of car owners the Franklin
Motor Car company, in its instruc
ton book for owners, very carefully
warns them of the necessity of using
Champion spark plugs, which are
regular equipment on Franklin cars.
The instruction book says:
THE use of cheap and inferior
plugs should be avoided as they will
cause the motor to perform poorly
and produce other troubles"
The selection of Champions spark
plugs by the Franklin was a distinct
tribute to the quality of the plug.
Before adopting Champion, the
Franklin engineers, who are among
the most thorough in the automotive
industry conducted series of ex-
haustive tests which led them with
out hesitation TO indorse Champion
superiority.

Peoria, ILL.,, Jan. 27.-The National
Federation of Music clubs, which
began the year with an affiliated
membership of 1907 clubs, has added
$50 clubs to its roster in the first
nine months of 1922, according to
reports compiled by Mrs. Helen Har-
rison Mills, director and editor of
the federations publicity bureau.
Affiliations were notably large in
many of the southern states, Texas
topping the list with 20, Georgia
with % and North Carolina with 20.
the report shows.
Local music clubs have been pio-
neers in constructive work for the
appreciation of good music" declares
Mrs. Mills, quoting report of Mrs
W. A. Fisher of Boston, first vice
president If the National Federation
of Music clubs. I'VE have under
taken a survey of the activities Of
the various musical clubs. Question
naires have been sent the various
clubs covering their activities during
a 10-year period the information
received to be used as a basis for
future work.
Not only have the local music
clubs established nearly three-f curths
of the concert courses in communi-
ties outside the great music centets,
but they have taken artists to the
undeveloped localities, and have been
the dominant force in educating au-
diences to listen to recital offerings"
said Mrs. Fisher.
In attempting the survey the Ma
tional Federation has as its out
standing object the coordination Of
all the forces in whatever tends to
the making of a musical nation, said
Mrs. Mills.

 Justice Stafford in written opin- ion refusing to dismiss the indict- ments, said with reference to the first indictment, which charges a general conspiracy, that it would not be necessary that the means of carrying out the conspiracy should be unlaw- full in themselves, conseqhently, he held that any number of the defend ants, but not less than two, might be convicted provided the evidence shows them to have been parties to the general conspiracy charged, all though ignorant of some of the means that were used and ignorant of any intention on the part of their co-conr spirators to use them"

(Continued from Page One.) that no incapacity existed as a result of the injury Compensation Com missioner George E. Beers, acting for Commissioner Frederic M. Williams, finds in a decision handed down this week that Taylor was an employe of the respondent and is entitled to com pensation.
 Taylor was injured on August 20 1920. His chief injury consisted of an aggravation of an old hernia. After his injury the old man continued to work until March 20, 1923 Since that date he has been partially incapaci- tated as result of the injury
 Taylor was paid $7 a week and given his lodgings, and the fact that the bookkeeper paid him the money and charged 1t to labor removed the claim of the respondent insurer that he was not an employe.
 Commissioner Beers found that Taylor was an employe, and as such was entitled to compensation allowed by the law. In his award he orders that Taylor be paid compensation at the rate of $3 week from March 20, 1923, to Aug. 20, 1923 The old man is also to be paid $5 which he spent for medicine and medical ser vices. And as a, further award, the respondent is ordered to furnish the claimant with a truss, necessary in his condition.

tractive" When prices were 50 per cent. higher many hardy investors were wont to characterize New Ha- verf bonds with the same term that you now use. Existing prices are attractive" also by comparison with the market quotations of few weeks ago and few days ago.
 The stock now outstanding has been so freely offered at reduced prices recently because the joint New England committees plan leaves the holder of this stock in a questionable position. The common stock could not come in line for dividends until regular dividend basis and until all accumulations were paid uy.
 Financiers who look upon the New Haven situation with an impartial eye profess to be exceedinly skeptical on the prospects of this plan being adopted 1t is maintained, in agree ment with the opinion held by the chairman of the stockholders com mittee, that the most effectual rem edy is not scaling down of obliga- tions but the adoption of measures to increase revenues. The New Ha- ven claims the right to a more equir- able distribution of revenues derived by the trunk lines on freight trans ferred to the New Haven lines. Here is the most hopeful source of in creased revenue for the New Haven Naturally the trunk lines will make a strenuous fight against~any propo- sal for change in the apportionment of revenues-en freight coming into and going out of the New England states.
 The direct answer to these two i'm vestors is that they should not go in for New Haven stock and bonds unless, after close study of the situation, they feel that they can af ford to speculate on all the unknown factors

Ideal" physically Natures Mas champion lady swimmer and aero batic diver, is booked to fill an en- gagement of the entire week at the Palace beginning Monday. In pre- senting IdeaI' the Palace is un- doubtedly bringing the most import ant attraction of this class for the en- tertainment of local theatre goers.
 The swimming and diving beauty has been given an entire weeks en- gagement at the Palace owing to her great importance as an attraction.
 The bill of vaudeville at the Palace for Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday includes besides "Ideal' an excep- tionally fine array of selected acts. Saying something Smooth as Silk" may be properly applied to Frank X. Silks line of comedy batter.
 Irving Colsar and Rhea Lusby have assembled a number of vaudeville bits and fashioned them into a pleasing role.
 Harris and Holly are blackfacers while on the stage although very white when off They have a real sense of humor and the finest of ideas in the art of displaying it..
 Francis and Dorothy Gouthier are two clever variety athletes whose work is far out of the ordinary.
 A very nicely produced comedy drama will be offered as the Palace screen feature for Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. Her Fatal Mil lions" is the title of the picture. Viola Dana is the star of this picture which of course adds to its import ance in the estimation of screen fol- lowers. .-..
 Supporting "Ideap' during the last three days of the week is an entirely new arrangement of vaudeville. These include Norman and Mack, known as "The Two Black Crows; James Doyle and Eileen Christie in "The Lobby; Gilmore and Lester in Have You Seen My Horse?" and little Eu- nice Keeler, the dainty dancer.
 Alice Brady in Pawn of the East" a Famous Players production, is the screen feature booked for the last three days of the week.

(COnt1nued from Page One down decision making permanent the injunction asked by MT. Daugh- erty 'in the name of the government against the striking railroad shopmen. So far as the decision goes 1t means nothing as long ago the strikers, the railroads and everyone interested had dropped the matter. So far has the strike been won that where the in- junction still has any meaning it doesn't amount to anything more than clearing the case off the court docket
 The strike is, of course, still on on the New Haven system but the faltering New Haven road had year ago secured a similar injunction against their own workers which aside from securing such a paper and the publicity that went with it, was about all the good it did the road. The strikers simply ignored it and went ahead with the peaceful conduct ofs the strike and there has been no trouble
 Therefore the added injunction will have no effect hereabouts.
