Reed severs his connection with the News today and will leave tomorrow for Flushing, 1 ' New York, to begin work as city editor of un evening paper there We , imagine lie will miss these Hoosier , half ramps. The Yellow Jackets face a hard game at Columbia City Friday night. It will be almost impossible for them to get the tip off, at least with regularity, with Andrews out of the game and that is a big disadvantage Coaches, players and fans are get ting t xtreinely anxious to know what the drawings for the sectional tour neys wil) be. The suspense is awful. Th« drawing will he made Saturday ' and the schedule for the Decatnr sec- ■ tiomil will be published in the Daily 1 Democrat. Watch for it. George Wemhoff, ardent basketball fan of this eity, has received the record of the Washington. Indiana.< f Catholic high school team after writ- 1 ‘ Ing to the coach of the team. The ■ Washington team, which claims the state Catholic championship, has won 21 out. of 24 games played this ' season. The only teams played by j both Washington and Decatur Catho1 lie are Cathedral of Indianapolis and Gibault of Vincennes, and the scores of those games show that Washington and Decatur are about on a par. 1 Decatur has not lost a game this season and therefore has as good if ' not better claim to the state title for I Catholic teams.

The stock yards' records show that farmers and stock raisers ate sending 32 per cent of all live stock now coming to these yards ■ by trucks. An investigation this last summer by the Bureau of Public mails • shows 94 per cent of all milk brought to Indianapolis by motor truck, and 6 per cent by traction lines. State roads that have become so in tegral a part of our every day life 'naturally are the real developers ot this business. They are aiding won ’ derfully, John D. Williams, highway 1 director, says to develop outlaying 1 districts which now have good mar '.kets for produce, whereas a few yearr jago, ent off from markets for several itnontlis each year, their expansion was 'seriously retarded. Mr. Williams if ■ of the opinion that the state road (system to all parts of the state, is tlx ■ chief reason for the state forging ' ahead in agricultural anil industrial development. The motor bus has leafied Into al 1 most universal popularity with the de[velopment. of the state highway system,.and at the end of 1924. 171 dis ferent companies or individuals, were Operating 218 bus lines in Indiana, 'state highway records show. These

are maintaining a regular schedule over 3,420 miles of rural highways in lite state and travel a total of 52,800 bus miles per day. Two hundred upd three of the 218 companies operate on 2,760 miles of state roads, making u total 46.360 bus miles per dny on state road alone. Seventy per vent of the state road system Is now covered by Ims Hites, und 8X per cent of the bus traffic is on slate highways, the report shows. _ — n Get More For Your Gas Dollar Says Untie Sam Washington, - Automobile drivers derive only 70 cents worth of power out of every dollar's worth of gasoline they buy. according to the Bureau of Mines. Luck of standing of appliances designed to increase efficiency of gas constitution ami improver adjustment of carburetors are the chief causes of the average motorist's 30 j>er cent waste, a series of practical tests recently completed by the Bureau revealed. Most motor fuel is wasted through the engine exhaust. The average carburetor is adjusted too far on the rich I side, or, in other words, an Insufficient amount, for good economy and proper combustion, the tests revealed Saving in gasoline without a sacrifice in power and flexibility of operation may be obtained, the bureau pointed out, by adapting the carburetor to temperature conditions of the atmosphere.- The markedly rich ad Ijustments found in the summertime • are to a large extent due to the fact • that no charge has been made from 1 that used during the cold winter • months when a somewhat richer k mixture is desirable. s i Additional reason for the rich ad If •

In ' adjusting a carburetor, the bureau advises, reference should he hart to three major Influencing factors, namely, the mechanical adjustments, the properties of the nod and th<- Intake | air heating devices. These are kiterrelated and slioubi '** adjusted in such manner that the leanest mixture will give satisfactory op eratlon for normal driving conditions on the most economical basis. In most Instances a saving may be effected by i merely allowing th. carburetor netting I and intake air conditions to prescribe the grade or type of fuel rather than exercising the flexibility and adaptability of the carburetor.
