Statements and conclusions in the
report are based solely on facts. To
get the facts, trained investigators
spent many months in close contact
with bakery establishments. All men,
bers Of bakery organizations connected
with delivery were interviewed.
Each bakers sales problem and de-
livery problems were analysed thor
oughly. The study was carried on
over 10 different States and provides
a representative croSS-section of every
size and type of wholesale baker
For many months" states Paul w.
Seller, president of one of the motor
truck companies, "our company has
been carrying on a Nationwide field
survey of truck use and operation in
the major industries. In the past four
months other reports have been issued
covering the findings of the survey in
the fields of food wholesaling, coal re-
failing, parcel delivery and retail food
delivery. other industries will be re-
ported on in succeeding months.
I'VE believe it definitely worth while
to contribute all that we can to aid
the truck user in obtaining maximum
service and profit at minimum expense
from his trucks, regardless of make.
1.-The practical, bedrock data OBJ
tanned in this field survey, in addition
to providing real aid to the truck user,
enables us to make certain that the
design and performance Of our prod
ucts meet the changing requirements of
the truck user in each major vocation
1t also helps equip our field organtza-
ton to render real counsel and service
to truck owners"

BALTIMORE, November 1.-Automo-
bile tags for 1881 will be issued begin
ming December l. Automobile Commits
sioner Baughman announced. The tags,

possible. If this is done, he declared,
considerable confusion will be avoided,

done away with.
Before securing next years markers,
however. owners must have their cars

FILTER TEST RESULTS
Teaspoonful of Abrasive Material
Accumulated in 1900 Miles.

Three interesting oil filter tests by c.
w. Mckinley, research engineer, showed
that the oil filter removed as much as
one teaspoonful of abrasive material in
every 1900 miles of driving; that wear
with unfiltered oil was five times more
than with filtered oil, and that In 10000
miles driving the oil filter removed more
than pounds of dirt sludge and abra-
sive matter from the oil, thus making
seryicing of the. filter necessary at this
mileage.

SYNOPSIS - Circumstantial evidence at the coroner's inquest leads to the belief that Jack Winglow, adopted son of Arnold Winslow, murdered Dr. Paul Kane, poisoned by carbon mon
 oxide gas. Jack loves Elsa Chase, beautiful crippled girl, whom Kane was to have exam ined. The elder Winslow, be- lieving Elsa to be an adven- turess, has engaged G. Thornc, detective, to probe her past. Jack disappears after severely choking his father in rage at the latter's disparaging remarks about Elsa. Lucy, the house. maid, cut to mail letter late enc night, is terrified to see a human figure, madly dancing, silhouetted against downstairs window curtain. 4 few nights later, coming down stairs to mail another letter, she sees the dancing silhouette again, this time on the inside of the front door. Thorne, hiding behind a portiere, sees it too. Lucy faints and Thcrne pursues the shadow, but it vanishes and when he re- turns Lucy's unconscious form has disappeared, also.

that first time, that it had taken longer than when he and Mrs. Winslow had come down in it from seeing Lucy on the floor above. Was it that Mrs. Winslow had been in the attic and had come from there in the elevator? But what was Mrs. WinSlow, not overly courage ous, doing in the attic in the dead of night? And how had Lucy got ten to her bedroom without as sistance, in her unconscious condi- ton?
 And to think that both the sha- dow and Lucy had eluded him! It might be that Mrs. Winslow had found Lucy unconscious and had taken her to her room by means of the elevator Two things, how ever, were against the theory-how had she revived the girl in the brief time he was racing around the house or gotten her into the ele- vator and upstairs after his return the elevator would have betrayed itself by it's noisy machinery.
