ON Sunday night the Capitol thea
ter will reopen with Anne Nichols
successful comedy, "Abie's Irish

The story of "Abies Irish Rose,

types are such as to keep the fun ar
the boiling point throughout the

This attraction has captured thea
tergoers in all the cities where it

+" USICAL jazz writers are next
I'M to Svengah.
I'll That guy" is the hypnotic
individual who made Trilby a great
singer.
According to all accounts, Sven
gall had eyes of hot Goals. Can you
imagine the jazz writers passing up
this idea so long?
So the writer's of jazz tunes have
placed the hot eyes of Svengah in
a new tune called Red Hot
Mamma"
During the vocal part Of this new
Victor record, you learn that the
mamma in question had hotter eyes
than old man SvengaI and that she
could make a bald headed man part
| his hair in the middle.
This may not be art, but it IS the
jazz language of the day. This
mamma" record is played by Coon
Sanders Original Night Hawk Or
chestra. on the other side in
Night Hawk Blues" which speaks
Of the radio as an instrument Of
jazz music.
The Mamma" record is about as
hot" as it's title. It's a corking
good dance record, a fox trot.
] The other day 1 introduced my
( self to Marek Weber and his or
chestra on an Odeon record made
/ by the OKeh people. The two mum
/ hers on this record includes Greet
ing of JOY" and Sunset on the ST
Lawrence.
| These two numbers are a pleasing
relief from the flood of jazz music.
/ These tunes are nearly old-fashioned
in theme and treatment. Understand
that in Europe Weber and his or
chestra belongs to the better class of
/ organizations. This record proves
/ it.
These records are importations.
They are recorded in Europe and
manufactured in the United States.
/ Rather think your record library will
take on new importance if you in
clude some records by Weber's or
chestra.

THE average man, paying for staple
commodities by the, month, fails to
consider the wide Auctuation in
prices, while noting quickly the smallest
change in the price of gasoline, which
he buys at frequent intervals and for
which he pays cash.
Bureau of Labor, and Department of
Commerce, statistics indicate that gaSo-
line prices huctuate less than the price of
most staple commodities.
In 1922, the price of eggs Auctuated Us
points; potatoes 210 points; sugar 81
points, as against only Is points in the
price of gasoline.
In 1923, the price of eggs Auctuated 10
points; potatoes ia points; sugar 50
points; milk 40 points, as against At
points for gasoline.
The reason for the wide Auctuation in
the price of gasoline during 1923 was the
opening Of new fields, which flooded the
market with crude oil rich in gasoline.
The Standard Oil Company (Indiana)
bases its price for gasoline fundamentally
on the varying price of crude, which in
turn is regulated by supply and demand.
To equalize supply with demand, the
Standard Oil Company (ndiana) has
erected and maintains storage depotS
of tremendous capacity. 1t has located
these depots at strategic points through
out its territory. These huge tanks are
filled to capacity, in the of-season, to
supply the insistent demand during the
season of heavy motoring and agricul-
tural activities.
This Company has Systematically passed
on to consumers, in the way of price re-
auctions, the benefits derived from inn
proved methods of refining petroleum.
1t has blazed the trail in originating
improved technique, improved equip
ment and more efficient processes of
refining and distribution, thereby aiding
the industry to keep abreast of con-
finally expanding needs for petroleum
products.
The service of the Standard Oil Com
pany Qndiana) tends to hold gasoline
prices down-and to modify Auctuation
by increasing the supply in proportion
to demand-and by equalizing distribu-
ton, so as to bring gasoline prices into
seasonal and sectional harmony.

If the lining appears to be bear
ing on the drum equally all around,
notice if the rivets are properly
countersunk. The heads must be
below the top of the lining. If the
rivets come up level with the top of
the lining, they will cut the brake
drum and certainly cause squeals
and squeaks. In any case if you
find that the lining is worn so badly
that the rivets come up to the top of
the lining, it is better to have the
brakes refined. This is a job that
should be done by a mechanic. If
the lining is put on either too loose
or too tight, the brakes will not act
properly. A good mechanic can do
the job very quickly and at a small
cost.
If. however, the rivets are well
countersunk. and the lining appears
to be bearing equally all around,
then you still have a lot of life left
in the band, and the noise is proba-
bly, due to dirt or grit on the surface
of the lining. If the brakes are oper-
ated in a very harsh manner, the
lining may be slightly burned or
