A skid to the wise Is sufficient - - No Mercy for Capital "Blind Pigs" The period WASHINGTON. purveyor of In Wash-ington hotels, cafes, tea gardens, near-bee- r saloons and other places is about over. The practice of the federal prohibi-tion authorities in New York city of closing for any and all purposea the establishments that violate the law will be carried out here within a few days, It was learned In the district at-torney's office. Tliis means that most rigid "pad-lock" injunctions will be enforced to make Washington dry. Heretofore the "padlock" Injunctions have served to prevent only the sale of liquor In this or that establishment and did not close a cafe or saloon altogether, as has been done In New York. Hereafter, It was stated, the Injunc-tions villi be obtained In the District Supreme court for the purpose of ac-tually sealing up and locking the cafe, saloon or hotel that persists in serving liquor. This means that a place so "padlocked" cannot be used for any purpose whatsoever for one year. Washington landlords will be the losers and so will the person ac-cused of selling liquor, as an Injunc-tion closing up a place altogether will virtually mean that the offender will have to go out of business. Certain well-know- n cafes, it was stated, which cater to well-to-d- o pa-trons, are under suspicion of selling liquor concealed In bread, coffee and teapots, napkins, candlesticks and cat-sup bottles to say uothlng of mustard Jars. It appears that the law hnd one eye closed during Shrine weeU, but now both eyes are opened, and the government Is preparing not only to serve writs of the most drastic of Injunctions, but will proceed Immedi-ately against second offenders through the medium of grand Jury Indictments. It is also known that the bootleg-ging fraternity overestimated the quantity of liquor salable during Shrine week and is now attempting to unload as fast as possible. The re-sult of all this haste Is, it was learned, that the bootleggers are taking more chances than ordinarily. Assistant District Attorney Frank J. Kelly, who Is In charge of the li-quor prosecutions In the criminal courts. Is preparing to uphold the gov-ernment's right to prevent the com-mission of the offense of bootlegging by enjoining suspects before they have opportunity to continue their illicit buslneea Indefinitely.

Division General &fntot-- i Corporation Detroit, Michigan f STRIPPED GEARS CAN BE AVOIDED No Novelty to Hear Grinding When Careless Driver Starts His Engine. IfBy ERWIN' QUEER. f Greer Oolite 0f Automotive Engineering Chicago.) There Is nothing more exasperating to the motorist than that horrible Bound which tells a story of stripped gears. It Is not In the permnnent mesh fears, where shaft motion Is turned Into axle motion that the trouble comes. If the rear axle gears are properly set and packed, they should never make any trouble. But It Is In the shifting gears of the transmis-sion, where gears come Into mesh at varying rates of speed and with the number of revolutions, load and sev-eral other things to complicate the Situation, that there is wear and tear. It would not be so bad If there were only wear. The tear Is what raises bavoc. It Is no novelty to hear a grinding r clashing within a car when a care-less driver starts or when he changes from one speed to another. If such b driver knew what was going on in-side of It when this unseemly noise occurs, he would hire a chauffeur or else take a few lessons In automotive mechanics to learn how not to abuse Ills machine in this way. If the driver (were a chauffeur and the owner knew what such a noise meant It is likely the chauffeur would be sent to school (or be out of a Jeb. When the ear Is standing, the en-gine Is running la neutral and no gear on the transmission abaft Is engaged. To start, It Is cos ternary to discon-nect the engine by disengaging the clutch and to move the lever so that the gears that give the slowest speed will engage. Once the car Is under way and It Is desired to Increase the speed, the lever U shoved forward, moving the transmission gears for-ward until the gears that give secuad speed are engaged. The wise driver. Just at the Instant of shifting the gear, would throttle down his engine one-hal- f and bring the number of revolutions of the gear (shaft to approximately that of the transmission shaft, which is kept in motion by the momentum of the car. He will also stop for an Instant In neutral before completing the shift to allow for adjustment When both gears are revolving at about the same speed, the shift Is practically noise-less and frlctionleas. In shifting to high speed the en-gine should be throttled more closely and the shift lever should hesitate gain If one would avoid the thump and Jerk commonly felt when high gear is thrown in. Constant Jerking and Jumping, thus caused, rack the mechanism, chassis and body and shorten the life of each. Economy as well as comfort Is Involved in shift-ing gears properly. In reversing, to back the car, the gear operation Intensifies the prob-lem. In addition to the difference In speed and variance of teeth revolu-tions, there Is added the contrary di-rection of the two gears which are to engage. To throw back on reverse, even at moderate speed, menaces the" gears and shakes things up uncom-fortably. Fortunately It Is almost In-variably necessary to fully stop the car before reversing, and the neces-sity of cnutlon In backing prompts very low speed throughout the opera-tion. MISALIGNED WHEELS QUICKLY WEAR TIRES Many Miles of Perfectly Good Service Thrown Away. Thousands of perfectly good miles of tire service are thrown away actually by motorists. It Is all done lnnocentlyl on the part of the car owner through,' misalignment of wheels. Although the wheels are out of tine, no more than a quarter of an Inch, the! resultant damage will be death for the. tire before it has given nearly all of the service which was built Into It byj the manufacturer. When misalignment is extremely bad the motorist must notice it, but in the leaser cases It cannot be detected with' out at accurate tost Most tire service stations are equipped with specially constructed instruments for testing alignments. Many gas filling stations also use them while the car. Is stopped to be filled with gasoline Almost aajr tire service station will tost alignment for the asking and will be glad to point out and correct tbej cause of trouble. When wheels are out of line for any. reason, the result is a scraping which sulekly wears away the tread surface. Instead of running strslght ahead and) accepting the natural traction surface' friction, the tire is compelled virtually! to akld along sideways. This condition frequently Is the fault of bent axles, but not always. It may be broken springs, loose spring1 shackles, sprung frames, loose steering knuckles, bent pinions, wornout bear-- ! lngs or wabbly heels. Delve Into Cliff Dwellers' History sent out by the PARTIES society and the Museum of Natural History are digging up ancient burled tree trunks and stumps In Ari-ton- a and New Mexico in order to put together a connected history of the In-dians who built pueblos snd lived there In a fairly advanced state of civ-ilization centuries ago. face vary from year to year, according to climate and other conditions. The first ring about the core Is formed dur-ing the first year of the tree's life. The second ring encircling the first grows In the following year, and so on. This process has been kept up for more than 8,000 years in soma of the giant redwoods of California. The rings are distinctly marked, because An accurate chronology may bo worked out. It Is believed, by the method developed by Dr. A. E. Doug-lass, professor of astronomy and phy-sics at the University of Arizona. A cross-sectio- n of a modern or ancient tree la the hands of Doctor Douglass is an almanac or annual register of the period in which it lived. When enough burled trees of various ages have been studied it is believed that an exact year-to-ye- history of the climate In any given region may be worked out When this study has been completed the age of various ruins may be fixed exactly by comparing cross-section- s of timber found In them with the cross-sectio- of trees of vari-ous periods. The rings which appear on the tree between the core and the outer sur- - the growth is different in spring and summer from what it Is In the rest of the year. There la a difference In the cell growths of the fall which makes a dark color In the ring, so that each year'a growth Is clearly written on the cross-sectio- n of the tree. The application of the study of an-nu- al tree rings to history and ar-cheology lies in the fact that ancient beams, rafters nd furniture will all show the varying tree ring patterns of the trees from which they were cut If trees enough are found to trace tho trnnual variations back several hun-dred or a few thousand years, a stand-ard of comparison would exist which would enable the expert to match an ancient beam or piece of furniture with the ring-patter- n of Its period, thus fixing the age almost exactly. SIGN TELLS ITS OWN STORY ft.'! JllAACTmE I. A warning to motorists at West Palm Beach, Fla., at a dangerous curve near a school crossing. United States Has Largest War Plane army's new TI1E air giant, known Barling bomber, the big-re-thing yet In flying ma-chines, will soon be tested at Wilbur Wright field, Dayton, O., the Wur de-partment having announced the selec-tion of Lieut. Leigh Waile and Harold It. Harris as pilots for the flight. The ship measures 120 feet from tip to tip, Is powered with six Liberty motors, weighs 40,000 pounds, and will have a flying speed of not less than ninety miles an hour. "If the performance In flight Is sat-isfactory," which will be known by the ofliilal report, the department's an-nouncement said, "the air service en-gineering division at Dayton will have achieved the credit of putting In the air the largest successful airplane In the world." The plane was designed for the nlr service by Walter H. Ilnrllng. It was constructed by the Wlttetnann Air Craft corporation of Hasbrouck Heights, N. J. While It is generally rated as a trljrlane, the "mid plane" Is so nHrrow as to prompt the expression The gasoline cnpaclty Is 2.000 gallons and oil 181 gallons, and a minimum operutlng crew of four will be required. "Specifications require that not more than 5,000 pounds of bombs shall be carried at one time,'' the announce-ment added, "but were anything so large as a 10,000-poun-d bomb devel-oped the Burling could lift and fly with It for two hours." Spruce and "lOO.OOO-poun- d steel" were used In construction, as com-pared with the 150,000-poun- d nickel steel used In building the navy's trans-Atlanti- c flyer NC--4. Of the fuselage construction the statement said : "Six-Inc- shells probably could pass through the tall portion without bring-ing the plane down. There are no vital longerons or wires which If shot would end the flight." The ship Is scheduled to have a full-spee- flight capacity and will carry seven guns, sweeping the whole Held of approach of enemy machines. Controls of the six motors are centrali-zed for operation through a single control stick, added features being means of shutting down the engines on one side without reducing the drive of the others to nld In negotiating "power turns." Pilot controls are in duplicate, with the two pilots sitting side by side, permitting frequent changes In flight. Keeping your mouth shut is on easy way to keep from hurting people's feelings.

When trying to avoid getting , splashed with mud most drivers will get as fnr away from a passing car as possible. This Is Just the reverse of what one ought to do to avoid such nuisance. When the enrs are ten feet or so apart, any mud thut Is splashed Is sure to strike the body of the other car, whereas, If the machines are closer together, say three feet apart, mud that is splashed will only strike the wheels and the under sides of the fend-ers. What mud would ordinarily splash on the doors Is much more like-ly to be caught under the running board when the cars pass closer to-gether. WELL WORTH REMEMBERIN3 Car Invariably Rides Better Over Rough Roads When Engine Is Constantly Pulling It A car will Invurlahly ride better over a rough road if the engine is constant-ly pulling It. Most drivers speed up and then apply the brakes when going over the rough places. The car al-ways bounces more under this plnn. and though the driver makes time be-tween rough spots he loses It as soon as he has to apply his brakes. With the car running along slowly In "high" the rear wheel seem to cling to tho road better. Tho wheels are not so free to be Juggled around by the bumps. German Princess Kin Lose Suit Here Georg Ernest llerrninn PRINCE Kochud Mandnip xu Ly-- 1 Georg Kellx Morltz Wllhelm Alexnnder zu Lynar and Countess Jane Georgians Margu-rett- a Sophie Isabella zu Lynar. chil-dren of the Princess Amelia iu Lynar, who died at Llmlau, Germany, October 8, 1920, will have to be satlxfled with the handling of their mother's Ameri-can estate by Col. Thomas W. Miller, alien property custodian, according to a decree signed by Chief Justice Mc- Coy In equity court. The estiute amounts to about ST.'),-00- 0 In real estate, stocks and bonds, which I'rlncess Amelia Inherited from the estate of her father, the late George M. I'arsons, of Columbus. ., a lawyer and member of the Ohio legislature. Some of the real estate lies adjacent to the state capliol lit Columbus. This property whs seized shortly after tho declaration of war Ciilnst Germany. Lawrence It. I'tigh, nncllhiry admin-strato- r of the estate of die Princess Amelia, brought suit against Mr. Mil-ler to recover the estate so that be could administer It f"r the benefit of the three children, who are residents of Germany and citizens of the Ger man republic. The government did not contest the allegation that the prop-erty originated entirely within tho United States and had no German con-nection except as to the claimants. The suit for recovery was dismissed on a motion by Mr. Miller, who con-tended that Mr. Pugh had not alleged an Illegal seizure, nor had he any right or Interest In the property except as administrator. Mr. Miller also con-tended that none of the heirs has filed a claim, and that Mr. Ptigh as admin-istrator could not qualify as a claim-ant The court was alo Informed that the property was being held for the sole benefit of the heirs, and that there was no need for a change of custodi-ans. Tills case Is similar to that of Countess joiMinna von Hernstorff. wife of the former German ambassador to the t'nlted States, who reientb covered about $l.(Xi0,0o) woriS seized proju'tty. This property was In herlted by the countess from tlieestHte of her father, a merchant of New York city. The countess herself filed the claim. In the 7.
