WAT Kit FOR AUTO FUEL
Louis Enrich! of Karmingdale. L.
!.. runs an automobile on water. Or
at loasl. he says he does. And several
supposedly normal, hurd-hcaded busi
ness mon who have seen him glvo a
demonstration aro convinced that lie
docs what hu clalniB. He simply
I'raws (Ivo gallons of water out of any
convenient water pipe, drops Into lt
four ounces of a mysterious greenish
Huid, pours the mixture into his gas
oline tank, and off goos the machine,
v illi the motor never missing nu ox
plosion. Mu says the chemical he
uses is so common and cheap .that thc
new fuel only coats a cent a gallon. |
if this ls not hocus-pocus. Enrichi
bau made a discovery that ls literally;
worth billions of dollars, und destin
icd to confer .incalculable benefits on
thu human race.. He has provided not.
merely a means of running gas en
gines cheaply.'ut tho very time when
thc high price of gasoline bas nude
it particularly wolcome. He has given
ino world a permanent source of pow
er far cheaper and more accessible
than any now existing. It is no ex
aggeration to say that 'hitch a discov
ery is greater than that of steam poW
cr. for the usc of steam depends on
coal, which is expensive and exhaus
tible. There ls plenty of water.
;'Unfortunately, this, lu probably a
hoax or a dream. The known laws
of science ' aro against it. Fuel ex
portai scoff at it. Water, to be sure, ls
two-thirds hydrogen: and that hydro
gen, when separated, is highly explo
sive. Cut chemists insist that lt ls
bound to taite, under Ideal conditions,
ii leant a? much expenditure of en
ergy to separate tho hydrogen from
ita combination with oxygon as thu
hydrogen can give back afterward in
burning or exploding. They insist that
there la no substance In existence a
little of which, pourod Into water, will
cause this separation as Enricht says
't dOc?, ui Cult in;; up fue wuier and
giving tho puro hydrogen to explode
In the gas chamber of the engine like
gasoline vapor.
And yet-science has been wrong
Lcforo.
FlIUiA^lTUKOPV^S ARR?
To tho ordinary American elly it
will seem Incredible that there should
bo 4,000 men and women In one com
munity earning their living in social
work supported by private philan
thropy. Such, however, ls New York
City's distinction, in thc realm of or
ganised charity. ;
. Philanthropy seems to have'devel
oped into a regular industry. It has
Its definite placo in the social orgaa
Izahoi.. it fias, developed ita own
.-.yatem and standards. Social work
ers are required to undergo an elab
orate course of training.
. Salaries aro in general'not so high,
perhaps as ia other lines of business
requiring education and skill. But
they uro bolter than educational sal
aries. Thoy run aa high as $10.000 a
year. '; Quite a few of the New York
charity experts get $5,000 a year, and
it.is a rare colleg? professor wno gets!
that much. ' Their aggregate ?alarles!
run into the millions.
"Tho New York'School of Philan
thropy, Which' has been takln y a cen
sus of these salaried workers ?n pri-1
vote charities, reports that they cou
eiltuto a larger group ?han the city's j
clergymen, dont 1Bts or chemists, and
are as numerous as authors, editors,
reports, civil engineers and surveyors
There are other Amer'can cities, too,
where the proportion tA. social work
ers to tho population ia almost as;
?r?at ''. ,// -V '
Undoubtedly tho worker? is worthy i
?it'hts hire. But lt does look as If thc ?
work 'of distributing charity Is getting ]
to be rather expensive, and the wa-j
"chincry. unduly^. ; Vupftersc^ne,;. . ?Vd(
any one who reflects on such vast,
complex activities ns modern philan
thropy represents, is driven to won
Ger whether all this botiicr and ex
pense is really necessary and wise
wile; her society couldn't manag;
tilings KO that fewer' persons would
need charity, and so il.at the anny
now engaged In laboriously investi
gating and doling out pittances could
be freed for productive employment.
IIJGH TOST OF it:ll?-CS
The American Bible Society an
nounces that it is having difficulty be
cause Of thc groa : increase in thc cost
ol hook-making materials, its cheap
testaments cost twice as much to pro
duce as before thc war. Paper, ink,
leal her and glue have all gone up.
The result JH that this society and
other organizations tltat distribute re
Muious literature of various sorts ar"
having lo limit their operations. One
denominational publishing house re
lions Uiai Its white paper alone will
cost $180,000 more than usual thin
year.
his handicap is especially unfor
tunate, at a time when the world
n*eds religion more perhaps than ever
before, and when religious publica
tl- ns are welcomed nearly everywhere
more warmly than for many years.

WARNING ATTACHED TO

These words written.in la~gc black
typo on a plcco of card board, tho card

to the' hearts of a- large number of

section of Atlanta, and have resulted
in such an exodus of negroes f-'om
the city that tho mattsr has become
serious and the pollco are making an

Recently a negro woman wha- re
ceived one ot tho notices tacked !n a
coffin aiv.t . pa'd ya . at tent ion to it

were merely r* coincidence, or wheth

. The - effect upon the negroes could
not Juvre 'bee* more immediate and

Which ?
Of course you'll want at least one serviceable suit for "all
occasion'' use this spring.
You have more room for choice this year, for we've se
cured a beautiful new Clothcraft gray serge suit, "6130,"
from the same house that makes the well-known "5130''
Blue.
You'll wonder how it's possible to get so much good style
and careful workmanship for $15.00.
It's because the makers have specialized on medium-pric
ed clothes for 70 years. The Clothcraft factory ranks
among the foremost in the country in scientific methods
of manufacture.
It's a case where good wages, fair treatment and high
ideals have produced better quality at lower cost.
Blue or Gray-$15.00-which shall it be?
And there are other good Evans suits $10 to $25. -
