MOTORISTS ARE
PLEASED WITH
MONOCRAMS
These Are Being Offered To The
Public Through Dealers
In Gas And Oil

Motorists everywhere are express
ing their admiration for the recently
introduced individual monogram en-
blems which are handsomely lith-
ographed in red, blue and yellow on
sturdy metal background, each en-
blem carrying the motorists personal
initials. These are being offered to
the public through dealers handling
Sunoco gas and oil.
While these attractive emblems,
which are entirely free Of advertis-
ing, are intended to be attached to
rear license plates for easy Identified
ton of the owners car, many new and
novel uses have been devised by en-
terprising motorists.
One feminine driver who entertained
group of her friends at a bridge
luncheon obtained emblems for each of
her guests and used them as place
cards for the luncheon table. Of
course each emblem clearly gave the
guests initials and places were cas-
lily identified.
Another motorist has reported that
the presence of his initialled emblem
on the back of his car enabled the pol
ice to spot and recover the car within
half hour after it was stolen.
Still another smart motorist who
has experienced some difficulty in
spotting his car while it was parked
with hundreds of others on a large
lot, has conceived the smart idea of
mounting, his emblem on the top OF
the car where it stands out prominent
ly at all times.
These emblems are quite easy to OBJ
tain. Any service station selling Blue
Sunoco Motor Fuel and Sunoco Motor
Oil has supply of application cards.
No obligation is incurred by asking
for one of these cards. Each appli
cation should be filled in, dime en-
closed with the card, and then for
warded to Lowell Thomas at the adj
dress given. The emblem, finished off
in the specified initials, is forward
ed by return mail together with the
necessary bolts for attaching to the
license plate. No further charge is
incurred beyond the ten cents to pay
postage and handling costs. These
emblems add to the appearance of any
car and are being applied for by the
thousands daily.

MANIFESTED NATIONS

The American citizen who regards tax burden with
equanmity merely because it less than that visited
European countries, may be due for rude awakening.
An exhaustive of national budgets throughout the
world made by the New York Trust Company shows that the
tremendous increase in public debt caused by
spending likely burden with greater taxes than those

HEAVY EATING
NOT GOOD FOR
BRAIN WORK
Light Midday Lunches Show To
Better Advantages For
The Thinking World

Conclusive proof that mental pro-
cesses are slowed down after the con-
sumption of a heavy midday meal,
while light lunch tends to stimulate
the brain, is offered by DR.. Donald
A. Laird, professor Of psychology at
Colgate University.
The experiments which led to DIR.
Laird's conclusion were made in Feb
ruary and March in the laboratories
of the university. Eight students,
none of them psychological students,
were selected from the freshman and
sophomore classes of the institution.
So that their reactions would be
spontaneous DR.. Laird told them that
he was conducting experiments to de-
termine the proper atmospheric con-
ditions for maximum brain effort.
They received their lunch and twenty
five cents a day for a period of six
weeks.
DR.. Laird has prepared motion pic
ture to demonstrate that Afternoon
sluggishness" resulted from the trans
fer of blood from the brain to the
stomach. In the case of large meals
taken in the middle of the day, a
large amount of blood is required for
the digestive processes, at the expense
Of the brain.
During the six-week period the SUBJ
jects were alternately fed on two
lunches; one a light dairy lunch col
lation built around cereal, with fruit
and milk and the other substantial
meal with three kinds of bread. meat,
vegetables, salad, soup and dessert.
1t was found that after the light
lunch the minds of his subjects acted
with sc per cent more speed and 25.3
per cent greater accuracy than after
the heavier meal.
By means of Kaleidoscope, device
which measures the subjects ability
to remember, the light lunchers were
20 per cent ahead Of their heavy-eat-
ing competitors. In concentration
tests, which were accomplished by al
kymograph and an audiometer those
who had partaken moderately showed
a superiority of SO per cent over the
heavy eaters. The former evidenced
