N SOME places summertime is
~ difficult season in which to get
I good meat. So, if you find you
can't obtain the quality of fresh meat
you want, try some of the many
canned meats which are always good.
Two of the most justly popular
are canned corned beef and canned
ham. To make delicious hash, mix
canned corned beef, diced raw po-

A jel1ied meat loaf may be made
by running canned ham or corned
beef through a coarse meat grinder

A very unique Thanksgiving SER
vice was rendered by the primary
school of st. Georges M. E. Church
school under the direction of Miss
Lindseth on last Sunday morning.
The children were glad to demon
strate to the church audience the
value of organization and Christian
training. Hymns of praise and pray

recited the story of Neimiah's re-
turn from Babylon, to rebuild the
walls of Jerusalem. Roberta Hudson
told the story of the Pilgrims who
landed at Plymouth Rock, their suf-
ferings and hardships, and the first
Thanksgiving in a new land. The
primary school is doing fine work
and deserves much credit for the
progress they have made in the
short time they have been organiz-
ed.

THE POTTER ESTATE
Kent County Poor Outside Aims
houses Are Beneficiaries

The recent beneficent act of Mr..
du Pont to pension the old people of
Delaware suggests a similar notable
act sc years ago. Colonel Benjamin
Potter, who died in 1843, arranged
in his will a trust, with the poor
white people of Kent county outside
the almshouse as beneficiaries.
Little is known by the people of
Kent county concerning the income
from the Potter estate, which con-
stitutes the fund, and concerning
the disposing of it. Colonel Potter
made notable gift in that far dis
tant time. And surely the present
material benefits of this trust are
comparable to modern generosity to
public welfare. Colonel Potter de-
serves to be honored. And isn't the
public entitled to know the present
distribution of the fund from the
Potter Estate?

New Finishing Process
Provides Higher Luster

Electrically-driven sheepswool
buffers are now being used to
give a new degree of Iuster and
depth to the body finish on Dodge
Brothers cars. A new process
that really amounts to furnishing
the already highly hand-polisl1ed
surface of bodies and hoods, this
operation results in an advanced
stage of brilliancy unknown and
impossible with the old method
of hand rubbing and polishing.
Installed in pairs on either side
of the factory production line,
these electric buffers are ope-
rated by teams Of two or four
neil each. This operation does
not replace any of the regular
hand methods of lacquer appil
cation or polishing. but is done
after the surface has been brought
to the highest luSter possible with
the older methods. The new
process is said to represent the
most important refinement in the
art of automobile finishing since
the perfection of the lacquer
gun" and the stripping machine.
Approximately two minutes time
is required to polish each car.

GAS TAX IS PUT
At s1,350,000

Receipts from the gasoline tax
in the District of Columbia for
1929 win amount to approx
mately $1,S5O.0OO, according to
George E. Kneipp. manager, Dis
trict OF Columbia division, who
bases his statement on prelimi-
nary estimates of the Al. A. A. re
search department.
Total gas tax collections for
the Nation" he said, will show
an increase of at least 80 per
cent for 1929 over 1928. This is
based on the fact that the total
for 1923 was 1904, 8T1, TIC, while
estimates for 1929 place the
amount at well over $4,000. 900.
Adoption of the tax in Illinois,
Massachusetts, and New York for
the first time, as we'll as. an in
crease in the rate in 90 States, &C
counts in q large measure for
the heavy collections. Increased
consumption is also a factor"
Last year District officials col
lected $l.263. 148 for the gas tax
here, but the increased number
of automobiles now in use in
Washington will increase he 1929
totals by about $4,000, / believe. :

reason for non-enforceTmel1t. He

He figured that If he got a

one had moved his car, or that
he had parked there first and
the other machines came later.
No one" he reasoned, "can
prove otherwise"
All other car owners had fig
tlred the same way. The rule did
little to help the parking prob
lem. It is clear to all now.
The parking problem is chang
ing the time OF traffic. peaks, !"
especially in the morning when
the dash to the business district
begins.
It began, of course, when John
Jones decided that he could get
a decent parking space only by
starting down town five minutes
earlier in the morning. The next
morning, his neighbor. who had
been appraised Of the good results
did likewise. Then, everybody
started doing it. When cities
first started to determine at what
minute traffic peaked" it was
found to be from 10 to Is min
utes before stores. offices, banks
and other establishments opened.
Now it is as much at IS or 80
minutes before opening time.
Obviously, the problem" af-
fects everyone. That is one Of
the most hopeful factors in it's
solution.

Financing Auto Sales
Takes $3.50, 900, 900

Sums totaling approximately
81, $50 100000 were advanced by
finance companies of the United
States during the current cal
endar year for automobile pur-
chaSes, it was estimated in q
statement made public this week
by the American Motorists AS
ISOLATION.
Obviously the figures for the
entire year are not yet available,
it was explained by the associa-
ton, and the estimate is based
upon the volume of business
transacted by 338 finance COM
panies during the first half of
the year and upon the assump-
ton that business during the lat
ter months has followed the
same general trend as in the
last three previous years.
The sales of approximately D.
100000 cars, new, used and llI1.
classified, have been handled
through these finance companies
during the year. About SO per
cent of this number was new
cars, used cars and those in the
unclassified class making up the
remainder.
Approximately $685., 0O0,O 900, or
about 10 per cent. of all money
advanced for car purchases by
the finance companies, was to
finance new cars.

come a popular method of pur-
