On countless other occasions when “‘a little extra’ is
asked and “‘a little extra’’ is given the great Hot Spot engine
supplies what you ask.
Hot Spot “‘cracks’” the prevailing low grade gas into a
very fine vapor and Ram’s-horn then completes a task not
a whit less important.
Ram’s-horn gently and quickly ‘‘feeds’” each cylinder of
the six by the short 14-inch route to each and gives the same
fresh, “‘powdered’’ gas to every cylinder alike.
Unless you’re driving the new Chalmers some of your
cylinders are often getting a rich gas and some a lean gas.
That makes your engine run ‘‘choppy’” on occasions.
A Hot Spot Chalmers runs like silk feels, and you ex

TIME CONFLICT IS SETTLED
Dublin, f\m-il 23.—After trying out
the proposition of having two sepa
rates time schedules in the city, the
daylight saving time for railroads,
postoffices and telegraph offices, and
the slow schedule f{or the city, the
people have become dissatisfied, so
the ¢jty council has voted 1o move up
the clocks and watches in the city in
conformity with the daylight saving
time, and do away with the confusion
incident to having one time for the
city and another time for the rail
roads.
When the daylight saving date ap
proached, there was much dissatjs
faction experssed with it, and council
decided to vote in favor of not moving
up the clocks in the city. Now, since
tryving this scheme, some of its strong
est supporters have declared in favor
of moving up an hour and getting in
time with the remajnder of the coun
try.
GRAIN ELEVATOR IS PLANNED
Dublin, April 23.—The Farmers Co
cperative Association, a corporation
in the Farmers Union in this county
has announced definitely that it will
have a grain eelvator completed and
ready for use here not later than Aug

discussed for several months and the
project seems to be about ready to be
put over. It wil Imean a great deal
for the farmers of thjs county and
section,
In addition to the grain elevator,
the assciation expects to build also
a cotton warehouse to be operated
under the most approved bond system
and which will have a licensed grad

hands and smiled, and I added, ‘We

The great crime of hurrying the
execution, according to Mr. Gahan, he
longed to the military governor of
Brussels, who would wait to communi

COLQUITT HAS FIRE

evening. Four stone buildings were
destroyed and another was badly dam

occupied by garages. The fire was
caused by the explosion of a steam

for a time that the entire business

ADMIRAL KOLCHAK STRONG
BELIEVER IN DEMOCRACY
Omsk, Siberia, March 5, (Corres
pondence of The Assciated Press.)-—
Admiral Kolchak, head of the All-Rus
sian goernment, speaking recently in
Ekaterinburg before a conference of
members of the Duma, zemstvo and
other organizations, reiterated his be
lief in democracy for Russia, declar
inf it to be “the only admisable form
of future government,”
Bolshevism, he said, is destroving
the very foundation of authority in
the country and means a desperate
struggle for a long time.
At present, he pointed out, condi
tions sometimes force the govern
ment to employ means which do not
correspond with principles of demo
cracy, but he assured his hearers that
such measures were temporary and
that steps were being taken to insure
universal suffrage, labor and land leg
islation and to develop organs of self
government,
“The government endeavors to
maintain and strengthen friendly re
lations with the Allies,” said the dic
tator. “Russia was alarmed by the
invitation to send here delegates to
Prince’s Islands to negotiate with Bol
sheviki. Now this question is set
tled. The statesman of western Eu
rope now sees the truth and blame
the Bolsheviki, calling them murder
ers and terrorists, as did Lloyd-
George.
“The government is inspired with
the ideal of restoring the motherland.
It is not called upon to settle all fun
damental question. The Russian peo
ple is master of its fate. Released
from the yoke of Bolshevism it will,
through its representatives in a nat
ional assembly, express its will in re
gard to its form of government and its
social structure. Then the present
government wil ltransfer its power
to such an authorized government.”

American flour and clothing are
saving the lives of thousands of des
titute people throughout Rumania.
The United States Food Administra
tion has already brought into the
country nearly 20,000 tons of flour,
while the American Red (ross, which
has @ large mission established here,
is distributing clothing and general
relief supplies of all kinds among
the needy population.
The flour from American arrived
at a time when conditions were at
their worst and when local supplies
for the Rumanian people were almost
exhausted. It was feared that the
~want of food would result in a state
of Bolshevism and revolution. This
- American flour has been a tremen
“dous factor in preventing the unrest.

northern Rumania is reported much
less acute. All hospitals ave short
