BUILDERS OBJECT
 ID ROOFING BAN
Another Hearing to Be Given by
 Commission Wednesday

Dissatisfied with the compromise on the use of asphalt and asbestos roofing materials which was effect ed at a meeting of the building commission Wednesday night, sev- eral builders and wholesalers of building materials have asked and will be granted a new hearing Mon- day night at a special meeting.
 Whereas the first meeting con- sisted mainly of a protest against barring asphalt roofing from the fire district, Mondays meeting is expect ed to be a remonstrance against permitting that type under any con- sideration. The building code pre- pared by Earle K. Bishop restrict ed asphalt roofing to buildings out side the fire zone. When builders protested, change was ordered which would allow asphalt on re- roofing frame buildings of not more than two stories in height. This deviation from the general rule has brought objections which will be heard Monday.

Science Advances as
Slorulv Rising Spiral

There is nothing new under the SUM-
Science has developed, If not in q
circle, at least in an ascending spiral,
according to DR.. ]. Newton Friend
1t has continually followed earlier
trends. but on increasingly higher
planes, like a railway circling a
mountain top, he told members of the
Royal institution in a recent lecture
In London.
Side by side with their pseudo
magic, the ancient priests of Chaldea
and Egypt gradually accumulated q
varied stock of scientific facts which
were Of invaluable assistance in en-
abling them to carry out simple ex-
periments to impress the mob. They
learned, for instance, that gases ex-
pand when heated, and utilized the
fact in performing many a miracle,
such as forcing out a libation through
q tube concealed In the arm of the
idol. Hero of Alexandria, an adroit
Greek physician who fiourished
around 100 B. c., has left an account
Of many Of these miracles" Among
other things he has described what is
usually known as the first steam en-
CINE.
This consisted of spherical boiler
Of water which, when heated gave Off
steam through several nozzles, caus-
ing 1t to revolve very much on the
same principle as the pinwheels that
delight little boys on the Fourth Of
July.
The Greeks were not interested in
experiment. That was mental work
fit only for slaves. Accordingly they
produced theorizers. Besides the we'll
known cogitations of Aristotle and
others there was Democritus, who de-
veloped an atomic theory of matter,
the essential features Of which were
generally accepted until the time of
Dayton, said Doctor Friend.
Alchemy did not come till the Chris
tian era, but it lasted we'll on into
the Seventeenth century till the time
of Boyle, one of the early physicists.
The mainstay and end-all of alchemy,
transmutation of metals, after enjoy
ing a couple Of centuries Of disrepute,
declared Doctor Friend, now engages
the attention Of the best scientific
minds, since the investigation of ra-
diOactive elements shows that they
have probably been undergoing spon-
taneous change into other simpler
atoms.

Mysterious Message

Mr.. w. X. Ludlum, New York
broker, has other problems than the
fluctuations Of the stock market to
solve. Upon returning to his home
one evening, Mr.. Ludlum found the
following note from the maid printed
in capital letters:

YAKOMOM GOLERUP SEE NOMAT-
Err HOW LET is GONABEE COL
ERUP."
Mr.. Ludlum studied the note for
some time, but finally gave it up. In
the morning he asked an explanation
from the maid. In plain English the
note was meant to say:
Miss Marks called up. Says as
soon as you come home, call her up.
Says no matter how late it is going
to be, call her up"
There is reason for complaint, for
Miss Marks is customer of Mr.. Lud-
lum, and when he called her in the
morning he was Informed that she had
just left for the West.-The Outlook.

PROPER WASHING
OF AUTOMOBILES
Oil Should Be Changed
Frequently and the Chas-
sis Kept Clean.

Automobile owners, almost without
exception, are learning that so far as
their motor car is concerned the most
profitable investment that they can
make is regular attention in the mat
ter Of inspection. washing, oiling and
greasiDQ
For years the manufacturers have
been carrying on campaign Of edu-
cation trying to make the user real
lie that he could not expect the most
satisfactory service from the car he
bought unless he took the pains to see
that II had regular attention. Service
stations, statesmen and In fact every
one connected with the trade, brought
the matter to the owners attention
every time the occasion presented IT.
SELF Unfortunately this valuable in
formation was accepted with grain
Of salt and it was not until the owner
himself or someone with. whom he was
intimately acquainted incurred large
. repair bill brought on by lack of care
to the machine that the fact was
driven home that attention was q good
investment.
Reason for Neglect.
Perhaps the principal reason why
the average owner heretofore has neg
lected giving his car the attention 1t
should have was because he felt that
he could not spare the machine. That,
from an automobile dealers stand
point sounded well for it made him
feel that the motor vehicle had at
last taken its place In the sun, but
it was not the real truth. Any man,
no matter how busy he is, can SO ar
range his days work that he can man.
age to get along without the use of his
machine for few hours. Were it alb
s0lutely necessary for him to have
automOtive transportation it would be
economy to hire a taxicab.
It Is not the amount Of work that
must be done on q machine when IT.
is brought to the service station that
Ii the big factor. It is the systematic
inspection Of the car, the little adjust
ing here and tightening there. which
is the proverbial stitch in time, that
counts.
Change OIL Frequently
Oil should be changed at frequent
intervals and the car itself should be
thoroughly fabricated at stated inter-
walls. Some owners have their oil
changed and their car fabricated once
a month, while still more do the
work every SO many hundred miles.
Most oil companies recommend the
changing Of oil every 500 miles and
motor car manufacturers concur in
this recommendation. About every
LOGO miles the car should be lubri-
Gated and every $500 miles It is not
bad idea to examine the transmits
sion and differential to see IL they need
the addition of any more grease. Or
dinarily they will not, but it only
takes minute to find out. Cars fire.
quently washed have the dirt and

them to function more efficiently, not

Watch Gas Line Close to
Prevent Tank Overflow

Gasoline tanks usually overflow be-
cause no provision is made for allow
ing the air to expel as the gas is
pumped in.
This usually can be avoided by see
ing that the nozzle isn't jammed
down into the neck Of the tank, but
another precaution is advisable where
the neck is provided with a special
section to act as en- air vent. In this
type Of neck there will be two d.
visions, one very much larger than
the other. Make sure that the nozzle
directs the gasoline into the larger
one, otherwise ingolng gasoline and
outgoing afr will meet and cause an

Helpful Points to Keep
Tires in Good Condition

For the benefit OF motorists who
store their cars during the winter, the
following suggestions are made by the
manager of tire company on storing
tires so that they may be found in
good condition for the. next touring
season:
Wash the tire carefully on the out
side to remove oil and other harmful
substances.
Store In a cool, dry place, away
from light. Heat, light and moisture
are enemies Of rubber.
Cold has no bad effect on tires. but
they should be- properly housed.
IF tires are left on the car, jack up
the car, debate the tires. and wrap
them In covers.
Don't let the car stand on tires all
winter. To do so means weakening
them in the parts that rest on the
floor.
