All the efficiency devices, the new
improvements. the better things In
the way Of equipment and design
are offering unexpected advantages.
They have demonstrated their
necessity. and. in addition. are re.
yealing entirely unlooked,fC r, virtues.
This Is clearly demonstrated In
such comparatively simple devices as
the air cleaner, the motor thermo-
stat and the oil filter.
The air cleaner was designed to
minimize cylinder and piston wear,

matter, from gaining entrance into
the engine through the air intake
of the carbureter.
T. has lived up to all expectations
IN this respect, but 1t has done more.
It has prevented carburetor jets
from becoming clogged with dirt.

The motor thermostat was deyel-

the adoption Of air cleaners and the

It greatly minimizes choking, and
this. in turn. occasions a long chain

The oil filter was offered as a
motor protection.
OIL kept constantly clean was
said to prolong engine life and
minimize wear. Now that the re-

demonstrated its value in this con.
nection it has become apparent

that It offers another interesting
feaure.
Oil Economy Results
Because time is required for the
oil to circulate through the filter
and because the filter Is an ex.
ternal accessory, there is opportun.
ity for the oil to keep cooler. Oh

further saving in engine wear.

It can be located so as to catch
a draft of cold air. or be placed
flat against the hot cylinder block.
Crankcase ventilation Is another
one of the new features that Is
demonstrating its ability to serve
the motorist in more ways than
one. Its chief function is to carry
off gasoline vapors that get past
the pistons int the crankcase and
dilute the oil. But it keeps the
crankcase cooler.
Z 1t keeps poisonous vapors from
leaking out Of the oil filler pipe
into the passenger compartment.
It provides handy method of

BOYS WEEK
By Z. L. b. New York City.

Beginning with May o. we are going to have Boys
Week. 1t is going to last week up to May 16.
On May 16 there is going to be big parade, the
Bows Week Parade.
Boys Week is supposed to be for the benefit Of
the boys. But who is behind Boys Week. who is
organizing it? Some rich mi1lionaires and bosses
who make millions of dollars out Of child labor and
don't care if the children grow up ignorant and
crippled Also the school authorities whose job it is
to dope the minds of the workers children with all
kinds Of lies that will make them obedient to the
bosses. Also the government which is the worst
enemy of the workers because it is always the
side of the bosses and always against the workers
When the bosses, the Board of Education and the
government backing up a thing it shows that
that thing is bad for the workers and workers
children.
Also what does Boys Week do? 1t makes the chill
dren feel that the government and the bosses are
good to them and doing them good things and
it makes them forget that the bosses and the gov
eminent their enemies. 1t makes the children
think the bosses and the school authorities and the
government their friends. This is not true they
their worst enemies And that's why Boys Week
is a very bad thing for the workers.
Workers children! Learn the truth about Boys
Week It's all a scheme to fool you.

Benjamin screamed aloud and the dog came run

Then why is he running away from his brothers?"
And the shiny greenish eyes OF the alligator looked

is no more greedy animal than this man. He is

SACCO AND VANZETTI

BY SOPHIE TROTSkY-BrOwnsEille Pioneer.
Two freedom fighters, two men of iron
Are sentenced to their DOOM
Shall we let this injustice pass thru
When the nation is still in bloom?
Shall those who fought for workers
And workers, yes we are,
Lay their lives because the shirkers
Are thirsty for human gore?
Or perhaps we should let those
Who live on our sweat
Silence two of our defenders.
Brave Sacco and Vanzetti. And yet:
Thru iron bars
Thru prison walls
Their message they still send
Comrades fight onward for your rights
Fight comrades, till the end!"
Can "TIIEY" silence such strong voices
That reach us far and near
Can that mask Of justice and freedom
Continue at us to leer?
Or shall we tear that mask asunder
And see our brothers free.
Come comrades choose, and choose the latter.
On to one great victory!

Jones, guard at the Washington
monument. Presently he will be
gin his fortieth year of service at
the great obelisk.
On the morning of October 8,
1888, Jones assumed his position
as top guard at the newly complet-
ed monument. He remained there
ten years, when he was promoted
down the 900 steps in the monu-
ment to become guard at the en-
trance. He has been there ever
since.
During the 80 years of his en-
ployment, the old guard, who will
presently pass his seventy-sixth
milestone, probably has come into
contact with more than 100000
people, pilgrims to the shaft erect
ed to the memory of the Father
of his Country. At the close of
the present year he will have
passed through the portals of the
LlOuultltHl q IOIdl VI foV'VVV POA
sons seeking to see the wonders
of the Capital City from the peep
holes in that historic shaft, and to
pay their unconscious tribute to
the first president.
During an average day recently
he piloted to the elevator "a
crowds enroute to the top, and
showed $50 others the way to
climb the steps that wind around
tie elevator. Altogether he ush-
cred in and out of the monument
300 people within a period of
seven and one-half hours. How
many questions he answered is
unknown. If any one holds to the
belief that Jones job is a ''cinch'
let him try it for 40 years.
The old guard likes to recall
the visit of President Benjamin
Harrison to the monument. One
Thanksgiving morning a man and
approached the edifice.
"Are you a stranger here?" the
guard inquired.
''In a way the visitor replied.

lished visitor. Harrison invited

As and so cars of wheat have been
shipped from Wolf Point. The
weakening OF the price has had
a tendency to slightly lessen wheat
hauling activities and the fine har-
vest weather has made it easier for
farmers to care for their grain at
their farms. A large acreage a
been pooled and pool members
have been delaying threshing or
hauling until the pools Wolf Point
house is ready to receive their
crop, which it is announced will
be on the morning of the goth.

AS threshing continues, it be-
comes mor and more evident that
this years crop, at least in the
Wolf Point area, was underestimate
ed. T%hreshing returns show field
after field yielding from two to
eight bushels more than had been
expected with only an occasional
crop falling slightly under esti-
mate. The general run of yields
is right around the 20 bushel mark,
with plenty of them reaching 25
and a few up to 35. The lowest
yield reported is Is bushels. It
iS certainly a fine harvest. with
ideal harvest weather. If the farm
ers can realize the price their
wheat is worth, it will be a great
year for Montana farming.

ONE PERSONS cARELEssNEss

All the statistics in the world
are not half so convincing as one
poignant example of what may be
caused by the carelessness or ig-
norance in the matter of fire. A
recently published statement show
ing the annual loss by matches and
smoking to be over fifty millions
of dollars, while tremendous and
terrible, is likely passed over by
the average reader with slight in
terest.
In Crater Lake National Park,
however, there is an example that
once seer is a life lesson. At a
high point on one of the many
scenic drives, a pinnacle from
which hundreds of miles of sur
rounding country can be seen is
a sign reading THE product of
one persons c-arelessness with
fire" And stretching away be-
hind the sign is a vast mountain
side populated only by blackened
stumps, all that is left of what
was once a magnificent virgin for
est, until a match or cigarette
butt was dropped and left unob-
served.
1t would be a good thing if ev-
cry inhabitant of this country
could stand at that point and see
the desolation the raging flames
have wrought. We should have
10 more such signs or reason for
hem. With a heavy growth of
-egetation a prairie country also
