The younger girl died soon after being rescued. The elder child, now' at Jal Singh's orphanage, has been weaned from her savage ways. At first she fought fiercely against wearing clothes, refused to be hashed and ate by rooting her mouth in a dish. y She still is weak mentally and neither cries nor laughs, but is gentle with animals, preferring the company of dogs to that of children. o- —; »■> Miss Mary Darr entertained her Sundiy school class at her home at a masquerade party on Wednesday night of last w r eek.

UNEMPLOYMENT The United States has nearly ; three millions of unemployed j nearly all the time. Britain has more than two millions unemployed. Germany has more than a million and three quarters, j Russia has betw r een two and j three millions. Canada has nearly a million, and. the South American nations about the same proportion. Spain, Poland, Czechoslovakia, Italy, are also affected in varying degrees. But in France the weekly figure for a country of 40,000,000 inhabitants does not reach 500. Moreover, to meet ♦he lack of domestic labor more than two millions of foreigners have been called from outside and work steadily. Yet the taxes are the highest of any country in the world. From ’ his it would J appear that there's something j radically wrong with internal management in Franc e —too much army overhead, perhaps. “Up in MabePs Room* a breezy buoyant comedy, all over a perfectly innocent filmy chemise.

TO ECONOMIZE ON GASOLINE BY ERWIN GREER (President Greer College of Automotive Engineering. Chicago, Ill.) Should two cars of the same year and model be driven over a hundred mile course each would show a totally different gasoline consumption at the end of the trip. Why? Because no two drivers operate a car alike. Jones, for instance,* nurses his boat along at a certain steady speed, while Brown likes to cover ground in spurts. Naturally then, Jones gets more mileage than Brown. But driving a car economically is just one-half the dollar battle. Hie good driver also sees that all gas joints are tight, that his en-' gine is sweet running and free from carbon and that the carburetor is economically adjusted. And you would be surprised to learn how many dollars a car owner saves a year by paying attention to these little details. Great progress has been made the last few years in carburetion and intake manifold construction. It is an actual fact that some cars today get a better gasoline mileage on low-grade gasoline than cars achieved on high-test gasoline ten years ago. The carburetion system is not the onb' location to look for fuel leaks. If the ignition system is not up to snuff fuel will be wasted. This also includes the battery.* There is little use in getting a correct fuel mixture unless there is a good hot spark to fire it. Carbon in the engine's cylinders will waste more fuel than will be thought possible. By cutting down the proper output of the engine carbon compels the use of an excessive amount of fuel. The clutch, if slipping, may become a terrific waster of fuel. Misaligned wheels are another source of power losses. When the wheels are out of correct alignment, a dragging motion is set up and some of the engine’s
power goes to produce this drag, which, by the way, is one of the most potent causes of tire wear. Dragging brakes waste power, yet brake adjustment is so simple that there is little excuse for this condition. Finally, the car owner may conserve his fuel by the way in which he drives his car. Long fueling periods eat up a lot of gasoline, that has performed no ■ unusual function. Tlie driver should learn to set his throttle on long runs and plug along at a steady gait Motor sense is gasoline dollars poured into the tank. o THE IRIjSH POTATO Statistics from the federal bureau of agricultural economics indicate that the state of the American potato eater seems to be veering from the Irish variety to the swe€*t Last season, says the report, one bushel of sweet I potatoes was grown for every five and 'two-tenths bushels of the Irish. This year the ratio is given as one bushel of sweets to every four and four-sevenths bushels of the Irish. These figures might cause one to believe that it won’t be many years until the sweet potato becomes absolute master of the table. Sweet potatoes are mighty palatable, but Americans wdll never give up the Irish hashed; brown, French fried, au gratjn, German fried, or the good old mashed. o D. E.
