Urges Conservation of Coal
Program; Too Late for Oil
ENGINEER AVERS OIL WILL BE
GONE BEFORE PROGRAM
BE EFFECTIVE.
ATLANTIC CITY. Oct. 30. (£>)—
That it is already too late to start
on a plan of oil conservation was
the statement made today by Horace
H. Clark, a fuel engineer of Chicago,
before the convention of the Ameri
can Gas Association.
“It is useless to start a national
oil conservation program now, be
cause the oil will be gone before the
program is completed,” he said. “Let
us, therefore, start a conservation
program on coal, which is the most
important national resource we have,
and like natural gas and oil, when
gone cannot be replenished.”
Gas compamies, themselves among
the largest users of petroleum prod
ucts, are seeking ways to shake off
their dependence on oil, said Horace
C. Porter of Philadelphia.

Pupils’ limes and Taxpayers
Money Save in Rural Schools
90 PUPILS IN ONE COUNTY MAKE
TWO YEARS’ COURSE IN
ONE; BIG SAVING
DENVER, Oct. 30. (fl>)—Reorgan
ized rural education in seven schools
in Logan county permitted 90 pupils
to accomplish two years’ work in one
year at a saving of $5,313.7S to those
paying school taxes. Similar results
are being obtalined elsewhere in the
state, said Mrs. Mary C. C. Brad
ford, state superintendent and for
mer president of the National Educa
tion Association.
The plan is based on tests and
measurements similar to that .tried
out in the cities, but more in the ex
perimental stage in sparsely popu
lated rural schools. The tests classi
fy students according to their men
tal ages. Mrs. Bradford hopes to
reduce the cost and time in rural
education.
When asked in court if her hus
band drank, Mrs. Harry Snyder of
Chicago said: “No, he pours it in.”

PROOF
OF A BETTER OIL
The function of a lubricant is to
reduce friction and thus increase
the effective power of the engine.
The best proof that Zerolene does
this to a superlative degree is found
in the fad: that the Zerolenedubri'
cated automobile or motor'boat has
more driving power; it averages 5%
more gasoline mileage than when
other oils are used.
One good test of the purity and
stability of a motor oil is the amount
of carbon it forms. Zerolene forms ]
less carbon than any other motor oil J
\nown to us. That is why the Zero" 1
lenedubricated automobile or mcy \
towboat may be driven from 25 % *
to 50 % farther without having the l
valves ground or the cylinders re" i
bored. t
Truly, you can buy no better oil
than Zerolene. Ask for it by name

WHAT MY NEIGHBOR SAYS
Is of Interest to Seward Folks.
When one has had the misfortune
to suffer from backache, headaches,
dizziness, urinary disorders and other
kidney Ills—and has found relief from
all this sickness and suffering, that
person’s advice is of untold value t
friends and neighbors. The following
case is only one of many thousand -
Who could ask for a better example?
Mrs. R. V. Rowe, Box 683, Juneau.
Alaska, says: “I was in bad shap
from kidney complaint. I had terri
ble pains in my back. Mornings I
could hardly move and it took som>
time to straighten my back. I tired
easily and didn’t feel like doing
my housework. I was nervous and
couldn’t sit still at time. I read
about Doan’s Pills and after using
three boxes I felt like myself again.’'
