The artists and model chorus is one of the many features of the new musical comedy "Sassy Bits of. 1924" | which is the attraction announced at the Grand for tonight. This splendid combination of mirth and melody, | which is making its first bow to the local theatre-goers, is said to be full of pep and has scored a most decided { hit throughout the country. The company numbers twenty-five peo- { ple. including the famous Ted Rellly | Dancing girls, who sing and dance | with becoming grace and charm. An | exceédingly clever cast of musical | contedy players will be seen in the | leading roles. "Sassy Bits of 1924" | promises to be one of the best.musi- | cal comedy treats of the season. "The Covered Wagon." Famous Players-Lasky is the new- { est comer into the field of produc- ing pictures which have their initial | runs in the regular theatres devoted to. touring dramatic attractions. The accomplishment which prompt- { ed this great concern to make the | departure is the Paramount picture, | "The Covered Wagon," taken from { the story of the winn'ng of the west by Emerson Hough, which had a sen- sational success as a serial in the | Saturday Evening Post and is now in its fifth or sixth edition in book form. | The author lived to see his great- {est drama realized when this story | was transferred from type to the screen and became a moving reality. | The success of this transformation | is credited to Jesse L. Lasky, who | took the initiative in its planning | | and to James Cruze, the director who | ALBERT L.CLOUGH The Fuel-Starved Engine If The Carburetor Gasoline Supply Runs Low The Engine Will Falter' IF YOUR ENGINE FIRES REGULARLY and behaves pretty well while {dling and while the car is being driven slowly on level roads, but cannot readily be speeded up very much, even on easy going without opening the throttle much more than usual and even then missing explosions and perhaps backfiring and, further, if it shows little pulling power on grades, failing to carry the car, on high gear, over hills that (ormerly were easily surmounted, showing less and less power, the onger It is asked to do hard pulling, soon beginning to miss and sputter «nd perhaps finally stalling;-not only on high gear but on the lower gears, that have to be resorted to the reason most commonly is that it is fot getting gasoline enough to rum on. If such conditions appear rather suddenly, when nothing mechanically or electrically is known to be wrong, it is quite probable that the carburetor does not keep filled with tuel and therefore the engine falls to get enough gas. This means that the rate of flow of gasoline to the carburetor float-chamber has become reduced to a point at which it is inadequate to meet any but very slight tuel demands of the engine. If the cap is removed from the carburetor sriming-pin and the latter is operated, while there are signs of insuff- sient gasoline, it may be found that the float is away down in the bowl * Instead of up to its normal level and that the float rises only slowly when the engine is stopped or slowly idled or in case there is a drain- tock in the bottom of the carburetor, and when this is dpened and its Jassage is clesned out by running a wire through it, gasoline escapes only slowly and not continuously in a full stream, the fuel supply Is andoubtedly insufficient. The next thing is to determine what is reduc- Ing the fuel flow. It may be that the gauze strainer at the carburetor supply--or 'one otherwise located---needs cleaning or that some of the tubing itself is plugged up. Possibly the air hole, which is a necessary provision In the top of every tank, from which gasoline is to flow by gravity or suction, has become stopped up, or it may be that, it a vacuum-tank is used, it does not keep filled or does not deliver its con- tents properly. If upon opening the drain-cock in the bottom of the vacuum-tank, gasoline does not escape freely, there is presumably some- thing wrong with it, which prevents its filling itself from the main tank. The chief causes of vacuum-tank troubles have previously been stated in these columns. WEAK EXPLOSIONS AT STARTING advance and see if you do not get better results. mi -- BADLY SCALED RADIATOR C. O.

Answer: No doubt the water you are using makes a very resist- ent scale and, if the radiator were ours, we should take it to a pro- fessional radiator repairer and let him see what he can do with it. He would have facilities for doing this work and practical experience in the best procedure, which a car owner does not have. The muriatic acid treatment is rather severe and has to be applied with consider- able caution. We suppose that you are sure that the rubber con- nections are all in good condition, that the pump is working properly and that the fan is working at full speed. You better do so before going further with your radiator. However, if water will not run freely through it, when poured into the filling opening, no doubt it is clogged.

The explosions don't seem to have force enough, at first, to kesp the engine turning and I sometimes have to crank again and again before the engine "catches". What do you advise? Answer: When this engine ia warm, retarding the spark, while cranking, is no doubt advisable in order to avoid damage from pos- sible back kicks, but the explosions which occur In extremely cold cylinders are so slow and so much of thelr Snergy is lost to the cylinder walls that when the engine | temperature is very low it {s found | In practice that it is not necessary to retard Ignition fully in order to! avold hark explosions.

Why should they? For the shadows fold differently every afternoon, and the sun moves down that sky, lordly to- day, lordlier to-morrow; and the pageant along the shore changes with each hour. The deiicate outlines of the opposite coast are like something in a dream, almost too tenuous to be; as if goblins or fairies had form~ ed them, strung them up for a mo- { ment's delight, and would let them sink into the water soon. One grows speechless in the presence of such beauty. It is evanescent, fairylike; yet at moments it takes on an irom strength which it is difficult to de- scribe.
