WILLARD HAS
NEW BATTERY

The Willard Storage Battery Com
pany of Cleveland has just placed
on the market new battery for
auto starting and lighting which,
according to the Corwin Motor Co.,
local representative might be called
1.-The Sleeping Beauty"
IF you remember your fairy
tales" MIR. Corwin points out, "you
will recall how the Sleeping Beauty
slumbered for hundred years with
out physical change and came back
to HE when the kiss of the Fairy
Prince awakened her"
The new Sleeping Beauty Bat
terry" is like the girl in the fairy
story. 1t sleeps without physical
change until the kiss of the battery
solution wakes it to life.
1.-The secret. is in the plates and
insulation" he says. "Ihe plates
. are made according to a new Willard
process known SSto the trade as
Charged Bone Dry. The process in
dnces chemical change in them
during manufacture, which stays
put until the battery solution re-
leases it in the form of electrical
energy.
"The advantage of this new devel-
opment in battery manufacture is
evident The battery is full charged
in dry condition and looses none
of it's life on the dealers shelves,
waiting for purchaser, as wet bat
teries do. Thus the owner gets a
! brand new battery, full of life, none
of which is wasted in idleness.

Dodge Brothers
Shows Saving
For Users
Local Dealers Say Public APP.
preciates Significance
of Policy

1t is quite evident from the COM
rlents of buyers, according to NJ. Is.
Gilman, Dodge Brothers Dealers,
that the public appreciates the sig
nificance of the Dodge Brothers pol
icy of making constant improve
ments in their motor cars instead
of changing models every year.
Magazines, newspapers and bulle
tin boards everywhere are remind
ing the people this month that tins
policy continues to prevail and that
they may buy Dodge Brothers cars
without fear Of seeing new and
entirely different model put on the
market soon after they take pos
session of the present type car.
Coming just az this Tins" said
Mr.. Gilman, "when many manufac
turers are preparing to issue new
models, in Keeping with their an
nual custom, this advertisement IS
having striking effect. 1t serves
! as wholesome reinsurance to
prospective buyers. They dislike
the idea Of buying car today ana
finding month or so later that 1t
is an obsolete model. And it is oniy
natural that they should. The de-
! probation loss is out of proportion
, for q few months use. Moreover
most people like to be up-to date in
their motor equipment and il the!
wish to follow their desire in this
respect they must accept this SHARP
dc probation loss.
dodge Brothers Motor Car own
ers who buy new cars every year
and there are many of them-have
a big advantage here. A one-year-
cid Dodge Brothers car is modern
in appearance and mechanical de
| sign. That fact is one onceded by ev
eryone. Equally important to It's re
sale value, however, is the fact that il
is substantially the same car that
Dodge Brothers will manufacture
year later. In other words, there
is no danger that this one-ycar-ol'
car will suffer an undue deprecia
tion loss simply because an entirei!
different model is about to make it
appearance. We charge off only TO
the normal rate of depreciation TO
! one year. And the used car buye
in turn appreciates the fact tina
the price represents full value am
that he can buy the car with full
assurance OF many years of salts
factory service.

Ireland Again Resounds
 To Hounds in Full Swing

Dublin, Feb. ?.--One Of the first amusements 10 suffer from political disturbance in Ireland is always rid ing 10 hounds, and the refusal Of the people to allow the dogs and their mounted followers over their lands has been regarded as a demonstration of political opinion.
 Today hunting once again is in full swing and the numerous packs of hounds all over the country carry OH without interruption, a condition thought typical of the recent change. In Waterford the hounds are under the mastership of members Of the family Of the Marquis of Waterford. English visitors have not yet begun to come back in large numbers. but the outbreak of the foot and mouth disease among horses in England has acted as deterrent to the sport, and the Irish hunting packs are taking ad- vantage Of this circumstance to invite English sportsmen to come to Ire- land.

ANDERSON GETS
 TWO YEAR SENTENCE
Freed Under Stay of Execution
 Pending Certificate Of Doubt

New York, Feb. Civilian H. An derson, state superintendent of the Anti-Saloon league, yesterday was sentenced to two years in Sing Sing prison for third degree forgery.
 Mir. Anderson was permitted to retain his seat while the sentence was being imposed. He sat with arms folded and betrayed no emotion. The sentence was imposed by Supreme Justice Tompkins, who declared that Anderson's crime was a deliberate one and that perjury had been com mitted on the witness stand.
 Former Governor Charles Whit man, counsel for Anderson, made an impassioned plea for clemency, as- serting that his crime had not harmed any one and that he had many en- emies throughout the country who would profit by his being given a heavy sentence. Before pronouncing the sentence, Justice Tompkins said:
 Tt has been suggested that I sus- rend the sentence. Usually where sequences are suspended the defend- ant has pleaded guilty and expressed sorrow for his crime. This defendant, however, has maintained his inno- cence throughout the trial and does so now. His crime was a deliberate one, the evidence shows. In addition there were conflicting stories told on the witness stand. One Of them was untrue and that was perjury"
 Anderson was freed in s5,000 bail on stay of execution 10 permit NIT. Whitman to secure n certificate Of reasonable doubt which the trial court refused 10 grant. Arguments for a certificate win be heard on February is.
 As he loit the court room Anderson was served with papers in a sl05,000 libel suit brought against the league of which he still is superintendent, by Francis Cartwright Of Corning, N. Y. who has alleged the league libelled him in literature distributed through out the district in which he was q candidate for the state assembly in 1922.
 The argumen. for a certificate of Supreme Court Justice Wagner. If tpe motion is denied, Anderson must go at once 10 Song Sing prison and begin. serving sentence. An appeal will not save him from cell.
 Nine months and twenty days is the minimum time behind prison walls that confronts Anderson. with full commutation for good behavior deducted. Under the sentence he also is a felon and his citizenship is forfeited. The four other indictments. for grand larceny and eNtortion, will be held in abeyance over him.

SEATS IN THE MOVIES
r New Britain Herald:

Editor New Britain Herald:
 Ever go to the movies? Yes,
 knew it. But what do you thinl about the seating problem in most oi our playhouses? You do not know
 You have not given it a thought Well, as long as you have not thought about it, you may permit me to jog your memory a little.
 When you went the last time-per haps just a little earlier than usual in order to get a seat--and you came to a point where there was young man sitting next to the aisle, with four vacant seats to his right, and you and your wife started to make yourselves at home, by occupying two of them, only to be told by the afore- mentioned young man, that those four seats were ''taken," and you saw no one occupying them, did you like that, or have you forgotten?
 Then when you went scurrying all over the house, and had the same ex- perience wherever you found vacant seats, were your thoughts of very pious order? Did you honestly think that all those vacant seats were hon. estly taken? Or did you think they were being reserved by some one who had paid only one admission, and were being held by him or her for some one who was expected to arrive later? Can it be that you have for gotten that, too?
 We'll, 1 have had number of those experiences which I have not forgot ten. In one instance recently l found -four vacant seats to the right of a young man who informed me that the seats near him were taken, and in each one of those seats was a mans cap, which I found little later had been borrowed from four young men who sat just in front of him. And when the seats were finally taken. they were occupied-not by four men, but four women. In another case, a girl was holding two seats beside her. They were loaded with wearing apparel which She informed me belonged to women already in the house. l watch ed those seats. Shortly after the per- formance started, two young women, fully dressed, came in from the out side and took those seats, and the clothing that had been placed in the seats, was taken over by the first young woman.
 It is not necessary to multiply in- stances, for they are too numerous. The above illustration will serve to show very general abuse. The same condition obtains in alllthe thcaters in the city. The seat hdes are Of both sexes. Some do not care to go to a theater early and thus secure seat for themselves, but get some one to go ahead, buy one admission, and have chairs reserved for them.
 In some instances such seats have vacant all through the eve ming, simply because said seats had been taken. up to the time the commenced, and after Inc house was darkened, patrons standing were unable to locate them.
 Now, Mir. Editor,' will you do what you can to get the management of the various theaters to adopt a rule, and enforce if, of first come, first served. They could do this if they wished 10. It's a nuisance. and an insult to their patrons to allow this condition to con- tinue. If they cant put stop 10 it, they Should be compelled to sell re served tickets only.
 SQUARE DEAL.

Query and
Answer

Ouestion-When was the, bicycle
invented?
Answer-E Evidently in the middle
ages. A window in a church at Stoke
Pogis, England, 9th century, car
ries a figure Of a man on a bicycle.
All through the 10 century mechanics
were at work on various forms OF nl-
cycles. The modern wheel came out
in the early nineties. Few changes
h We been made in the mechanism OF
.he safety since then. Prior to- that the
two-wheeled machine had a front
wheel five feet high with a smaller
wheel in the rear used for steering.
Some great tumbles from that ma
chine. Hence the word for the more
improved vehicle-safety-
Question-When was the North
Lancaster cyclone?
Answer-May 81, 1918. The same
cyclone swept Grant county from
Glen Haven to the northeast corner,
devastating much property and Kill
ing stock but with no loss OF life. IL
had it's source near Boone, Iowa, ana
disappeared in the Wisconsin river
valley after killing several people at
Lone Rock.
Question-What will happen if all
the people leave the farms?
Answer-We would all StarVe to
death. However, if you refer to low
farm prices compared to high Valua-
lions. etc, a movement from the. farm
edwards would be checked when
foodstuffs became scarce and prices
began to soar And as farming IS the
most fundamental of human occupa-
tiOns, people WOul1 begin farming TO
nrevent starvation whether they
made any money at it or not. Either
valuations must drop or farm prices
must go up to make the business more
profitable.
Ouestion-Why is spring so late?
Acknowledging is not later than
usual. In fact, compared to Last year,
the season is somewhat advanced. Ihe
usual break of winter in this climate,
that is the last frost, is about April
20. After that vegetation can start I'M
hampered.
Ouestion-Please state how I can
inform myself about the Box peace
award? Is there legislation on 1T be-
fore congress?
The Box peace award was made by
Edward Box, a retired Philadelphia
publisher. Write the Ladies' Home
Journal or the Saturday Evening
Post publications. A letter to Cong,
John NJ. Nelson, House Of Representa-
tiyes. Washington, ID. c.. will bring
a reply as to legislation. We have not
read of any.

Given better health we think Sen

Guard would not rather lose without

LaFoilette has the big midwest
farmer vote and the labor vote. He
does not commands the business vote,
or the mountaineering vote. The
recent expose at Washington has
STRENGTHENED the hands of those who
favor an extreme liberal or a radical

generally controlling conventions, has
never allowed.
Elections since the war have shown
that an anti-war record does not hurt

Be Yourself.

Most communities, small or large,
divide themselves into factions. New
corners and old-timers are expected to
align themselves with one faction or
another and if they fail to do so catch
the devil from both sides. If they fall
in with either faction they catch the
devil only from one side. So it goes.
We can't see the necessity of fac
lions and we can see lot of evil in
connection with them. People forget
good government in their intense de-
sire to give the other bunch trim

than not the pot calls the kettle.
