BURGLARS ARE woRKMEN
Gang Captured As 1t Ja RemOvinl
 Wall Of Pawn Shop

One of the exhibits in the storehouse of the New York police is a workman's scaffold used by gang of burglars who rented rooms in a building adjoin- ing the rear of a pawnshop in the Bow cry, says the New York Times.
 They went up on the roof, hung the scaffold, and proceeded to remove part of the wall of the pawnshop. Casual passers-by thought they were workmen on a legitimate job until a policeman became suspicious. The result was a sensational capture. The gang had $1O00 worth of tools. ~
 Faro layouts, obscene literat ture and dangerous weapons taken by the police are ferried out to sea and tossed over board, except where they are required for evidence. Last year 5000 revoIv-' CTS and shotguns were thus destroyed, most of them having been taken from prisoners. Property and money are held for six months if they are await ing identification. Then the merchan- disc is put up at auction and sold. PawnbrOkers and secondhand dealers from all parts of the city attend the sales. The receipts go to the police pension fund. which last year was en-, riched by $4,6OO in unclaimed cash and $11,000 from auction sales.
 The vaults in which the valuables are kept contain everything from a. huge can of nickels to an envelope holding more than $1O0,OO0 in gold bonds. The bonds were taken from a prisoner they are held because the police must have a court order before knowing whether to turn them over to the orig inal owners or to the insurance com panies. ".

Some Preaeh---While Others Practice
 Some of the first, to yell Safety First" are the last to put it into prac- tice.
 Last March we followed driver down a side street in a snowstorm. He was about hundred feet in advance. He yeered slowly over toward the right hand curb, seemingly with the intention of stopping in front of a residence.
 Then suddenly, without the slightest warning, he pulled sharply to the left, attempting to skid his rear wheels 50 he wouldn't be compelled to use the reverse gear in turning his car.
 Not a sign of warning to anyone in the rear--no signal-no thought--no nothing. By the grace of an all-wise Provi- dence and the skin of our teeth, we managed to swerve quickly enough to avoid a smash. And got roundly cussed for our carelessness.
 Not wishing to add catastrophe to indignation (he outweighted us by about 30 pounds)-Me employed the better part of valor and withdrew from the prospective arena.
 But with our going, we permitted ourselves the satisfaction of heartily damning those who can't understand that safety first begins At home.

A SPEAKING PART

The girl who had been promoted from the chorhs to small part was greatly pleased with herself. But not so the rest of the chorus, who were, of course, consumed with jealousy.
 At the rehearsal the producer said good" after she had spoken her lines, and after that there was no holding her.

HUPP DISPLAYS
 SHOW MATERIALS
Now Being Shown By Dealers
 Throughout The Country

In the educational Hupmobile parts display, now being shown by its dis tributors and dealers to motorists throughout the country, is we'll illus- trated the sweeping improvements, the automobile industry has contributed to- ward better steels. The industry chiefly responsible for the high grade nickel, chrome, molybdenum and other steel alloys now extensively used in the bet ter motorN cars, as well as in other fine machinery.
 "A parts 'board takes the mystery out of the motor car," says R. A. Bailey, Jr, vice president of the Motor Sales Corporation.
 Tt gives you the facts that count. Buying a car with knowledge of what is in it is the sound, business-like way. And finding out what is in these vital parts is liberal education in what makes motor car value. The whole question of price and value, money S worth and satisfaction, is bound up in these immensely important exhibits.
 You don't have to be an expert on fine motor car practice. Every part is plainly labeled. You can see it all for youi seii. Alcre iS Luc hluu OA prOol yOu are justified in demanding from any car.
 "The parts board our dealers are dis playing shows not only Hupmobile ma terial. It shows our engineering design and manufacturing-wha trained me- chanics and modern precision machinery have accomplished. This is we'll worth seeing itself.
 For the first time in motor car an- nals, Hupmobile has shown the way to get at facts that count. It has shown why a couple of hundred dollars more is not extravaganza, but real economy"

:ACCO NEW NAME .i OF MOTOR FUEL
Acme Oil Go. Changes Its Name But Maintains
 High Standard

As a settlement of a dispute be- tween the Acme Oil company of Bir- mingham, and the Aero Oil company of Cincinnati, the benzol blended motor fuel, formerly marketed under the name of Aero will in the future be known as "Acco"
 However, the change will be in name only as the same high grade blend, as has always been sold under the name of Aero will be obtained if you call for "Acco' and will be sold at the Acme stations as heretofore.
 It is said that the Cincinnati con- cern wished to compromise the situa- tion and allow the Birmingham firm to continue the use of the name Aero which had been unwittingly adopted, provided the. Acme company would agree to use gasoline sold by the Ohio firm. This was declined by the Acme management, who did not hesitate to declare that it would continue to fur nish Birmingham motorists with the same high grade fuel but under new name

SHE KNEW SHEEP

A young city woman went forth to teach countEs school. The class in arithmetic was before her. She said "Now, children, if there are ten sheep on one side of a wall and one jumps over, how many sheep will be leftr' Then up piped a little tow-headed daughter of farmer:
 No sheep, teacher; no sheep"
 "Oh! oh!" cried the young city wom- an, responsibility. You are not 80 stupid as thatl Think again. If there were ten sheep on one side of the wall and one sheep jumped over, nine sheep would be left. Don't you see that?"
 "No! mol mo-" persisted the child. "H one sheep jumped over all the others would jump after. My father keeps sheep"

 The trouble Is undoubtedly due to bad compression losses and these may be due to piston rings that fit badly, to cylinders that are not true. If the en- zine carbonizes quickly and the plugs are wet you have what we call an oil bumper (bad ring fit or bad cylinders.)

Do not let it stand for several hours under the direct rays of the sun until the paint has properly set. for the inten- sity of the heat is likely to soften the yarnish and cause it to collect dust which will become embedded in the surface.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

Dear Barney Oldfield:
 Will you please tell me how to take scratches and rusty spots out of my sedan?
 W. K. Body scratches, ifsbelow the varnish coat, cannot be removed. If the var nish coat is but slightly scratched, I suggest that you use wax polish which. will fill in the scratch marks. Rusty spots on enameled parts should be rubbed with kerosene, dried, and scraped clean.

 By all means use the 31x4 in front also. It will not steer hard and with oversize tires all around you can re- duce the tire pressure and get easier riding. There will be no bad effects from the change, only good ones..
