Quality That Stays

And .Jewett performance will remain that way.
It is not fash-in-the-pan that will lead you to
the service station shortly. No OF its size was
ever so stoutfy built as the New Jewett. 1t

car near its size today. These pounds of steel and
big stout body frames mean years of lasting
satisfaction.

this New Jewett. Only few thousand the coun-
try over have had chance to see or drive it. Yet
on every hand you hear: "Have you seen the
New Jewett?" You hear it with enthusiasm,
with admiration. Apparently the world has
been waiting for somebody to build convenient
size car 50 beautiful, so exquisite, 50 finely
engineered, and 50 able that you and your wife
can be proud of it anywhere.
Look below. Wherever you live there Is
nearby place to Fill your eye with the beauty OF
the New Jewett and Fill your soul with the thrills

Worn to the point where their phys

yards in Chatham and adjoining coul
ties their loved ones who had been
called away slept the eternal sleep
the peace of death.
From early morning till the long
shadows of descending twilight
stretched across the sand hills and
pines of the section, the burial of the
dead had gone forward. Little groups
of grief ef-stricken relatives, their sor
row no longer restrained as it had beer
while they stood mutely near the mine
and watched the little cars with their
death emerge, saw their fathers, broth
erS and husbands laid beneath the
sod. Then they turned away 10 their
homes to take at last the rest which
they had denied themselves during
the long vigil before the mouth of the
shaft
And as the last body was returned
to the earth, statement was issued
by Bion Butler, vice president of the
mining company. which signalized the
end of the rescue work. Late this
afternoon he announced that every
section of the mine had been explored,
all bodies so far as 1t was known had
been recovered, and the death list as
completed and re-checked showed that
SO miners had perished in the triple
explosion.

MOUNT VERNON, N. Y, May 30
R.-Conway Tearle, motion picture

Jacques of Chappaqua, for injuries
alleged to have been suffered by the
boy when he was bitten by Tearle's

Drove MasterfuI Race.

De Paolo drove a masterful race to-
day, driving every inch of the dis
tance, with the exception of 65 miles,
when he gave way to his relief driver,
Norman Batten, from the 105th to the
131st lap. De Paolo relinquished his
seat SO he would be able to get brief
rest from the humping he had re-
ceived and to be In condition for the
final 160-mile dash. The car De Paolo
drove was equipped with a geared
supercharger, especially designed for
the race. This device. a sort of COM
pressor attached to the side of the en-
gine between the carburetor and the
intake manifold, has three distinct ad-
Vantages, it's inventors say. The fuel
is fed into the cylinders at 10 pounds
greater than normal atmospheric pres
sure, and the second advantage Is that
| the increased pressure in the cylin-
ders at the beginning of the suction
! stroke and at the end of the exhaust
| stroke scavengeS the burnt gas out
of the clearing space during the short
period of time when both inlet and
exhaust valves are open. The third
is that the passage of the gasoline at
high speed through the veins of the
supercharger thoroughly atomizes it
| and supplies a much better mixture
than could be obtained otherwise.
All of the cars in today's race were
equipped with balloon tires for the
first time, and experts were unani-
mously agreed that they withstood the
Furnishing grind with extraordinary
durability. They enabled the drivers
to travel at greater speed, even
