Warmth-when and where you need it

KEEP the house warmed all over with your regular heater

—and supply the rooms you want to use 'with the additional com­fort-point warmth of a Perfection Oil Heater. It gives out just the heat you require, where you want it, when you need it.

Hovf to exercise ihe greatest economy in house heating

Rooms and hallways that are used only a few minutes each day are a constant source of wasted heat, greater, prob­ablj', than j'ou imagine. Don't "rush"

PERFECT

your hot air or steam heater to make only two or three rooms comfortable. The Perfection. Oil Heater Jaas solved the heating problem in over a million homes. I t is ornamental anywhere and easy to carry about—weighs only a few pounds. A child can light it—and take care of it, for tha t matter. It burns for about 10 hours on a single gallon of kerosene.

Most hardware, housefurnishing and department stores sell the Perfection, in blue or black finish, w t h or without nickeled trimmings. Atk your dealer to show you one. ^

For best results use Socoritj Kerosene.'

When you want your Ford car repaired, insist always up­

on gett ing the genuine Ford Parts , made by the Ford Motor

Compainy, in order to insure reliable quality. There are spur­

ious, counterfeit, imitation parts made by outside concerns

who have no regard for quality in material, so insist on your

Garage or Repair Man furnishing you the genuine Ford Par ts .

All reliable garages may now buy the genuine Ford Par t s from

us—so there's no excuse for any one using the bogus parts .

Unless you are sure bring your car to us for repairs or replace­

ments.

Every motor highway and byway throughout picturesque New Eng­land and New York is a tHirt of thelong" Socony Trail".

wo

&very QaUorv

The House of The Seven Gables, Salem, Mass., made famous by Hawthorne's bobk ofthe same name. ^ It was built • in 1662.

MOTORISTS, commercial truck­men and farmers^from Salem,

Mass., to Oswego, N . Y.—have come to depend upon Socony products . Thus, ordinary demand has become a responsibility which the Standard Oil Company of New York is constantiy striving to fulfil. This is the reason for the steady growth of Socony service.

Refining processes, like motor con­struction methods, are always being im­proved. Socony gasoline is made and tested in accordance with the most recent standards of accuracy—insuring uniform cleanness, constant mileage to every gallon and absolute dependability. There is a diflerence in gasoline—just as there is in coal.\ It wiil pay ypu to discriminate.

Socony is a straight-refinery gasoline. It vaporizes quickly, but it is more than a mere easy-starting fuel. Owners of large motor truck fleets use Socony regularly because it is uniformly high-powered and clean-burning.

Look for the red, white and blue Socony sign.

ExlractM From a letter.

The following is taken written by Alfred File! tember 16, and sent fr. Tenn., where ho is- wit. i Construction Co.;

I took a trip Last week out into the country about twenty miles ;o look over a limestone quarry preiiar.iiory to buying some crushed limestone fiom them. On the way back we stoppe<! at u zinc mine and looked arounil. It was certainly a wonderful place, 'I'luy have dug down into the earth ai'otit one-half mllo. They have mules work­ing djwn there that don't see dayliglit for a whole year at a time.

The rock is dug ou: :ind brouKht ti the surface and carr.td througli the air on a cable by buckets for about a quarter of a mile and then crashed Into small pieces, uf what Ihey call limestone chatts, aiiout one-half inch In diameter. Thes' small chatts are then washed and cr..iiled as they do with gold and the zinc being heavier than the limestone, sinks to the bottom and tho small • particles of llinestonc work oft .and out of the way.

As .a by-product they have a very flne sand, finer than beach sard and also cleaner and, what they call chatts. which Is a small crushed stone. Both theso can T>e used in concrete and be­ing as this limestone is very hnrd ami gritty. It makes a fine concrete job. This stuc is turned out by thc hundreds of tons per day and as they have no use for It it goes to waste. They have great mountains of this sand and chatts which it doesn't seem can pos­sibly be artificial and looks like r. had alwnys been there.

.-Vnother by-produc. of this company is what they call thei.r limestone ferti­lizer or phosphate, 'They have a large plant which takes the fine sand and crushes it to a po'.vd( r and mixes it with water and forms a very thick liquid like very thick cream. Tn fact, il is more like a salve. If you hold your flnger under the ouliel pipo, after removing your finger the stuff won't run oft but Just sticks there about one-eighth of an inch thick. As this fluid fornis it runs into an open semi-circu­lar vat. Then there is a large wheel nbout lo feet In diameter and about 10 feet in width which revolves very slowly, perhaps making one revolution every 10 or 15 minutes. This wheel is so placed that the bottom of il touches the liquid fluid and goes into it about a hnlf inch. Continuing lo revolve slowly it (the wheel) comes out of this vat with a coating nbout a half inch thick of this liquid. The wheel con­tinues to revolve slowly and by thc time it hns made a complete revolution the coating of this stuff hns been ex­posed to the air about IB minutes so thnt it has dried sutriciently to just leave it (lamp so it wil stick together.

When the wheel has made a com­plete revolution there is a scraper which «crapes I p ^ o o l h , as it revolves and lets this damp sort of clay down onto a belt conveyer •iVhich takes it up into iinother l.uilding, where it is thor­oughly dried ;ind pounded nnd conies out as fine iis flour and looks exactly like cement, Thcy bundle this ferti­lizer inlo jiiil'i-r bags nnd also load it out in full r;-i!l,,;ids without bapgini; it.

It is a L:rfat mistake to suppose thaf Fred Biirroll and his friends are the only people who play favorites in the bestowal of itublic jnoneys. Other cases in the state deserve investigation. For example, voters of Middlesex county micht woll take note of this:

J. O. Ilayd.-n i.s the conniy treasurer.

Conversation was carried on until one of the members went down and then a male companion came out of the dark and grabbed the young lady by the arm and walked away. The incident was later reported to Chief Sawin. vrho went back to the building and began a search.

While two of the members were forcing their way in a front door, two men made their escape out a back window cf George Devarney's garage and were immediately chased by the two members, assisted by the chief. They were chased across tho railroad tracks towards the railroad station. when being met by other members of the legion, changed their direction and cut in by the rej=iidoncG of John Kelly. Over on the Livermore estate thc young ladv was caught by Arthur Des-"mtaid, whn was attacketl by one of her niale companions and got freo. In the darkness they made their escape, but a report came in from Cowdrey hill that a Cadillac machine hiid been abandoned un there and ini mediately a squad went tip.

A large Cadillac machine wa= found haif-way up tho hill, ditched on thc left hand side of the rnad having run out of gasoline. It was put in tow and brought down to Casavny's garage. Tho machine was of an old type and ;n tho rear was found a pair of cor­sets, chemise, a !ady';> h.'md-bag and .a bag of Canadian peppermints. The number w.as traced to Wost Springfield and the machine had been missincr since last Sundaj'. It w.as rumored that people had entered ono of the houses at Mitchelvilie crosj=ing and slept during Wodnosday night, but a thorough search of all the buildings nnd land around the square was car­ried on by the chief and civilians, until woll into the morning and nothing was soen, so this report is taken as true. Chief Sawin was assisted all tho even­ing by civilians ahd legi ">n membors and only the darkness allowed the cuiity ones to escape.
