“Leaks cost money-stop'emr
"U you don’t get that oil drip stopped you’re going
to run short some day and bum out a crank bear
ing before you know it. Look at the oil that’s #
wasted, too. Long, black streaks along every road.
Bad for tires. Dirties up running gear. And stop
that leak from your pump gland. Water’s cheap,
but a dry radiator can make a lot of trouble.
; • \
, “Big mistake, too, to let her leak and try to make
up by just adding a quart or two of oil occasion- 1
ally, like adding a pint of fresh milk to a gallon
of sour. You never get the real good out of new
oil by mixing it with old.”
The experienced Fleet Boss has learned to save
money—to stop the leaks and fill her up every 500 !
miles with clean, fresh “Standard” Motor Oil of
the correct consistency. It’s a famous oil, made by
men who have been in the game all their lives and
whose fathers were in it before them. Experi
ence counts in oil refining, as well as in nmning '
an economical fleet.

SMART BUYERS COME HERE!
We re not getting all the tire business in town. We never expect to. But we’re getting our
share and our business is growing constantly. The reason for this is that car owners have
found our location is convenient, our service prompt, efficient and courteous, our merchan
dise of the highest quality, ami our prices surprisingly low.
As a matter of fact, and we realize it sounds pretty strong, if every car owner in town who
ts not buying from us, really knew what we had to offer, we’d come pretty close to having
a monopoly on the tire business here.
We honestly believe this, because w’re already selling to scores of the brainiest tire buyers
in town—smart people who look'twice and Blink three times before they buy anything.
If we can satisfy them and keep on doing it—we can please you, too.

“One thing I ntrar.could account for>
is the venom and hatred of people with
very strong religious convictions,” re
marked Mr. Darrow, speaking for the
defense in the Tenuesse case. That at
titude of religionists has been a puzzle
before Mr. Darrow's time and will re
main one, seeing that the religion of
Jesus of Nazareth is based on love and
His followers are enjoined to pray for
those who despitefully use them. But
theories are not lacking to account for
the hhtred, the venom, so often mani
fested * -ionists. There is more
downright yiciousness in a religious row.
for Instance, than in any other sort of
disturbance. But it ia possible that the
good haters who are credited with strong
religious convictions have the convictions
without the religion. Or it may be that
their Jjatred of sin is so intense that
it unconsciously extends to the sinner,
notwithstanding the divine injunction to
“love your enemies.” Moreover sinners
of (he Darrow type are often given, out
of sheer deviltry, to the baiting of the
believers, and one would have to be a
little mor than human if he didn’t show
some of the human emotions when un
believers arrogantly assail all he holds
dear and taunt him with ignorance and
bigotry. All of which is offered as an
explanations, not as an excuse.
And it must be remembered, too. thnt
while hatred has no part in the religion
of the Nazarene, righteous indignation
has. The Great Exemplar manifested
that on numerous occasions and His de
nunciation of evil and evil doers would
be called “fierce” in the language of to
day. No doubt the Chicago lawyer,
thinks he is very broadminded, but in
true agnostic style he arrogantly and of-1
fensively assails religion whenever op-'
portunity offers, nnd then he is surprised
if resentment is shown. Perhaps the
religionists should turn the other cheek, |
but sometimes that is more than flesh and
blood can'sf«nd. The- trouble with Mr. i
Darrow arid his kind is that in assail-'
ing provincialism, narrowness, they are
frequently as narrow and as provincial
as the most remote rurallte. but they are
so conceited they can’t vision their own
short comings. \ |
Use Fertilizer to Advantage. I
Albemarle, July 20. —An average yield I
of 38 1-2 bushels per acre of Leap's pro-1
liflo -wheat Was secured from one six-acre
field on the farm of T. J. Eflrd in Stan
ly county, reported Count Agent Oscar
H. Phillips. This wheat was grown on
land which previously had been limed and .
sown to clover. This same land pro-
I dcued a crop of corn and cotton last sea
son. having received 080 pounds of 10
per cent acid phosphate per acre before
planting and 200 to 300 pounds of reedy
; mixed fertiliser per- acre when the crop
was planted. When the wheat was
sown, a mixture of 350 pounds of 10-4-4
and 16 per cent acid phosphate was ap
plied. Mr. Eflrd stated that he used
op his farm about a car of lime during
each of the past four years.

| Raleigh News and Observer.
| North Carolina scarcely less than Vir
ginia is greatly interested in tUe exeet
! lent educational work for negroes at
Hampton Institute, and the people of this
state were amazed as were the people
of Virginia to learn on the charges made,
by Cal. W. 8 Copeland. Newport News
publisher, who has been a loyal friend
of the negro college, that this institution
is not only teaching the social equality
of the races but is practicing racial equal
ity.
Colonel Copeland’s charges have not as
yet been answered by the head of Hamp
, ten Institute, but northern periodicals
i like The Cirsis, which are ardent sup
■ porters of social equality for the races,
have advised President Gregg to admit
the charge. He has as yet refused to
accept the answer that has been made
for him.
, Colonel Copeland was careful to state
that t'ne graduates and students of the
negro college as well behaved, and mani
festly negroes of character. He felt that
|in justice to the people of the South who
l were being asked to contribute to a five
' milliou dollar drive for finances that he
ought to make known the conditions as
lie had found them.
i Hampton like Tuskcgee lias long been
the object of large donations by northern
I millicnires. .Trim I). Rockefeller, Jr.,
j has just given a million dollars to Hamp-
I ton and Tuskegee and George Eastman.
| the kedak king, has given three million
j dollars. These schools are recognized
I throughout the world as models of their
{kind. Referring to the recent charge
lof racial equality, the Richmond News
| leader, a friend of the institution. «tates
j the situation correctly, clearly and sue- .
einctly:
‘•But the Hampton Normal and In
dustrial School is not a mode! for (lie
world because of an alleged spirit of un- ■
questioning comradeship exists between
white teachers and negro students. The
| rich northern men would not give to the
•school if the races were separated in the
auditorium. The debated practice of
social equality does not increase the col
lege's prestige among educators or among
altruists.
"Hampton' is! designed to genie ve two '
aims: (To make the negro tie best eiti- 1
7.cn possible and to jteep unbroi cn friend
ship between she races; Now, racial
caieslessness does neither #f thcs> things
It unsettles the negro’s point of view
and it moves the white rare’s deepest
emotions. To teach social equality to
Hampton, ever, by implication, is to do
Hampton to harm that no financial gifts
can tepair. The wealth of the North
will be unavailing without the good will
of the South. It lies in Dr. Gregg’s
hands to keep and extend that good
will.”

Re-Enact “Les Miserables.”
The Pathfinder.
Victor Hugo in his "Les Miserables,”
written more than 100 years ago. told
a gripping story of a man hunt in the
sewers of Paris. This story is being
’ re-enacted in the freight subways in Chi
cago. The man hunters are 250 police,
and a little swarthy Italian gangster is
taking the part of Jean Valjean, the
hunted.
In this strange situation, it is said, life
is successfully imitating fiction. The
only difference is that the--pursuers in
the story stumbled through fetid cav
erns lighted only by the torches they
bore, while in the modern version the
police are whirled through endless tun- t
nels on electric trains with powerful
searchlights sweeping the darkness before
them. Then, too, . Valjeaii could not
stay in the Paris sewers because of the
rats, exposure to disease and hunger.
He had to get out as quickly as poa- 1
i sible. But Chicago’s little gunman of ,
the underworld may stay in the tubes or
tunne’.B indefinitely.
It is believed that this citizen of Chi- J
cago’s underworld is the man who tried 1
to dioot State's Attorney R. E. Crowe. !
iHe took to the tunnels when pursued !
by 35 policemen after shooting a police i
guard in the criminal court building.
He mistook the guard for the state’s at- .
torney. The pursuers lost him in the 1
darkness of the underground. Although
he is probably less heroic than the man
!of fiction the pursuers are probably in
. the same class. Anyway he is imitat-
I it>g tile famous fiction character with
out care of danger.
1 There are some 65-odd miles of nar
' row, dark, low-roofed tunnels under Chi
cago. They criss-cross in all directions;
some of them are over forty feet below
| the surface of the heart of the businesa
section of the city. They are used eb‘
i tirely for freight, purposes, on narrow
-1 gage lints with small! cars like thoee
used in coal mines. The tiny trains
haul produce and freight from ware
houses to department stores and ship
ping points. In ease he needs food and
| clothing the gunman can probably find
them.
Bounty System Unsatisfactory.
I Tlie bounty system of destroying un
desirable and predatory animals is both
expensive and ineffective as a general
rulj. The United States biological sur
vey says it would be mueh better to em
. ploy trained hunters and trappers to
destroy these creatures. Such men know
how to undertake eradication of peats
in a systematic manner. Last year, for
instance, Coddington county, S. Dak.,
spent $12,000 in bounties for various'
animals, most of it for flickertails or'
ground squirrels. The survey estimates
that the same number of squirrels could
be killed by trained hunters a,t a cost to
the county of only $360. ■

was to have been expected when

ta'ked-of nine million dollar "Morrison
deficit” is now found by the accrual
basis to be only $1,1)32.214.68!
So the mountain, brouht forth a
mouse, and those whb hnVe steadfastly’
sought to discredit everything that has
pertained to the Morrison administra
tion should feel confounded.
According to State Auditor Baxter
Durham in a statement issued on Tues
day, the total deficiency of $5,438,531
should, by the accrual basis, be credited
with one-half of this year’s estimated
revenue, amounting to approximately
$6,200,000. That rredit would reduce
the deficit to $3,238,531.01. An item of
$1,255,316.53 represents a deficiency
hanging over from the Bickett ad
mnistration. he said. Deducting that
would leave an “accrual basis” deficit
of $1,032,214.68 chargeable to the Mor
rison administration!
