they must be parked as may be indi-
Gated by parking signs. or by lines
marked on the pavement by the police
commissioner. If these lines indi-
cate angular parking. the vehicles
must be parked in such q manner.
Parallel Parking
If the lines indicate parallel park
ing, the parking must be done only
by stopping the vehicle parallel with
the curb or curb line. in such man
ncr that there remains a clear and
unobstructcd width Of not less than

Proper Initiation Is
Point to Remember

"Tirc mileage, life and service de-
pend on several factors" according
to +. A. Copclin Of the Copelin Motto
comnany, Fircstonc dealers.
These factors include the tire,
driver, car, roads, and last but not
least, on using tires large enough
for the heaviest load placed on them
at any time and keeping them inflat.
cd to the correct pressure.
Nearly every day some ono will
say to us, why do some people get
$4,000 miles from their tires when
the best ! ever get is around 10000
miles? How do you account for
that?'
"Thc trouble is not with the tires.
but with the way they arc over
loaded or underinflated. Nothing
man, beast or mechanical device
can stand up under any great abuse.
The remedy is to provide tires large
enough for the maximum load that
may be placed on them and to keep
them properly inflated.
Reasonable care and regular in
spection Of tires for minor injuries
and checking Of the air pressure will
enable the motorist to get the most
in mileage and useful service"

Sliding Sleeves
Replace Valves in
Knight Car Engines

"How is it the sleeves Of a Knight
engine perform the same function as
the valves Of the usual poppet valve
engine ?"--this question which arises
frequently. in discussing the merits
of knight-cngined automobiles is
answered by John N. WHY'S, prcsi-
dent of WHY'S Overland, Inc, manu-
facturcrs Of WHY'S knight cars.
In any type of internal combustion
engine, means must be provided to
control the entry and exit of the
gases during the intake and exhaust
strokes. On knight engines, two
cylindrical sleeves. one working in
side the other and conccntric with the
piston travel arc used inside the
cylinder to control the valve opera
tions. The outer sleeve bears against
the wall Of the cylinder while the
piston works up and down in the
bore Of the inner sleeve. Films Of
oil separate the piston from tho inner
sleeve, the inner sleeve from tho
outer sleeve, and the cylinder wall
from the outer circumference Of the
outside sleeve.
In common with poppct valve en-
CINE design the intake mixture for
knight engines is introduced into
the cylinder on one side and the
exhaust expelled on the opposite side.
Rectangular openings called "ports"
arc cut out on both sides of the
inner and outer sleeves. 1t is
through these openings or "ports"
that the gases are introduced or
expelled from the cylinders. The
ports" on either side of the sleeves
do not coincide with one another
except ut the time desired to intro
duce or cxpcll the gas from the
cylinder. The openings on the
sleeves are closed by the passarc of
one sleeve over the opening Of the
other sleeve.
To allow the ports" to coincide,
so that 4 free passage for the gases
is made ut the right time, an up and
down motion is impaired to both
sleeves. The motion is effected
through connection on the base
of each sleeve carrying short con-
Meeting rod which in turn is secured
to a crank on the eccentric shaft
Rotation Of this shaft which operates
both sleeves for each cylinder is by a
silent chain driven off the front end

Mason City, Iowa, April l6.-LR,-
The town of Belmond, near here. is
without q city government. That is,
for all practical purposes such as
passing ordinances and administer ring
the affairs of the city, it has no gov

The situation, declared by local
attorneys and judges to be without

when four of the five council menu
bcrs recently resigned after q dis
pute over the tearing down Of some
curbing.
Their resignation left Mayor A. W.
Russell and Councilman Tom Nc

the city. These men, the Iowa law
says. cannot enact any legislation be-

with lettuce and cantaloupe shippers
Of the Salt River valley, who use
great quantities of waxed crate
liners in shipping some 5000 cars
of fruits and vegetables a year. He
also plans\ to produce waxed and
printed bread wrappers for bakeries
and to make various types Of waxed
containers used in shipping other
products.

GRAIN MARKET

CHICAGO, Feb. B. B - After adj
vancing to the highest point yet on the
present movement, wheat sagged at the
last today on account Of selling to re-
alize profits. Speculative buying was
active at times and there also was a
good export demand for North Ameri-
can wheat, including domestic hard
winter and Durum.
Closing prices on wheat were unset
tied at the same as yesterdays finish
to u cent off, with corn h cent to
a @'3s cent down; oats showing M q II
cent to a@A cent declines, and pro-
visions varying from seven cents set
back to five cents gain.
Export purchasing of North Ameri-
can wheat today was estimated ut as
Douglas daily dispatch., 1927-02-04

much as 500, 900 bushels, of which 1OO,-
900 bushels was No. hard via the
Gulf of Mexico at eight cents over
May, first half of February shipment
Another strengthening influence was
the fact that preparations were under
way for an immediate vote on the
McNary Haugen agricultural bill in
the senate. Reports of good demand
at Liverpool for nearby deliveries Of
wheat tended also to lift values here,
but were partly offset by word that
shipments from Argentina were larger,
more than twice the total of year
ago.
Aggressive buying at times today on
the part of commission houses was as
sociated a good deal with talk of prob
ability that European wheat crop
shortage totals 2OO,OOO,O0O to 225, 200, 900
bushels, and that European rye and
potatoes are also underestimated. In
this connection, it was pointed oIt that
despite liberal world shipments no
large stocks of wheat abroad have ac-
cumulated, that owing to the British
coal strike and high ocean freight
rates European countries appear tio
have home grown crops more freely
than usual, and that the world visible
supply at the beginning of the crop
year was 65,OOO,O0O bushels below a
ten year average.
Corn and oats swayed with wheat,
becoming easy in the late dealings.
The weather was unseasonably mild.
Profit taking made the provision
market irregular at the finish. Earlier
strength of cotton oil tended to help
provisions advance.

TRAIN IS DERAILED
"CannonbalF Freight Leaves Tracks Near Lyme-Iish Car Completely Demolished in Crash.

Lyme, Conn, Oct. 2s R-The "Cannonball" freight train, known as B-H l, from Boston to New York, with perishable freight, was derailed here last night when nine cars ln the middle of the 36 car string buckled and piled up. Some cars went down the embankment and one car laden with fish was en- tirely smashed.
 The wreck caused detouring of all trains over the shore line division of the New York, New Haven and Hartford railroad until this morning when Track No. 2 was put into use again and Track No. 1 was partly cleared. Passenger trains from and to New York were sent by the way Of Hartford or Providence to avoid the shore line traCkage.
 All the cars in this train were heavily laden with provisions or other freight Classed as perishable. The "Cannonball' itself is known as fast freight. The cause Of the ac- c!dent had not been determined by the preliminary survey. The point of derailment was between the Lyme signal station and the pas senger station. None of the train was hurt in any way, the railroad of ficials said.
