Rome, Sept 7. The news from

Passing Good Thing Along
Knowing that oil should not be
used on the bearings or movable parts
of radio sets, we were surprised to
read the following in the current
issue of Popular Radio:
A small fniantity of vaseline
taken on the finyer and ruhhed on
the contacts of a switch will keep
the contacts from wearing and
grinding themselves away. Con
trary to what one would naturally
think, this also .Insures a better
electrical contact.
This stunt is used in most of the
large electrical research laborator
ies 'on delicate measuring instru
ments. .
After giving it a trial on a non
pigtail condenser and finding It to
work like a charm, we applied it to
to switch arm bearing and then to
the bearings of our rheostats and can
say our signal strength was increased
20 per cent In volume and clarity,
indicating the correctness of the in
formation, which ,we gladly pass
along to our listeners.

CONTEST CLAIM
OF RECEIVER FOR
HIS SERVICES
Members of Firm of E. G. Dovey &
Son and Certain of Creditors
Eaise an Objection.
From Saturdavs Pally
This morning Judge Begley was
engaged in hearing the objections
filed in the district court to tne al
lowance of John F. Gorder, for $4,400
for fees alleged to be due as part
payment of his services as receiver
of the firm of E. U. uovey & ton.
from March 13, 1922, to June, 192S,
he having received the sum of $600
already in part payment.
The objections of H. N. uovey,
through his attorney A. L. Tidd, and
n which George E. Dovey as well as
the McCord-Brady company are in
cluded, were presented to the court
and charge that certain items listed
In the accounts of the receiver were
for his gain and should not be al
lowed, including the cost or trips to
Keosha county, Kansas, and otner
items. The plaintiffs also allege that
the receiver sold certain lands in
Neosha county, Kansas, for the sum
of $2,800 and that these lands were
inter transferred to the receiver by
quit claim deed from the purchaser
and which transaction tney anege
was made with intent to defraud the
creditors of the firm. It is also al
Ipeed that the receiver has failed to
give a complete report of the amount
of notes collected and daily interest
on balances on accounts carried.
The receiver in answer states tnat
there was no report made of all the
notes, as a number of the larger
ones were yet to be settled and col
lected and which would aaa to tne
resources ol tne nrm anu mai iui
the same reason that the receivership

TOURISTS FROM A DISTANCE
From Saturday's Dally.
The tourist season brings hundreds
of tourists from all sections of the
country throueh this citv every day
and to stand and watch the passing
cars is to realize just how great has
become this mode of travel and the
enormous number of automobiles
that are owned and operated in the
United Sttaes. To show the wide
range of travel, there was a car in
the city yesterday from Butte, Mon
tana, as well as oneyfrom Port Ar
thur, Texas, about as far apart in
the country as could be found, one
in the extreme north of the nation
and the other lying along the Gulf of
Mexico. Other states represented by
cars were Utah, Illinois, Missouri,
New York and Oregon which also is
representative of the Atlantic and
Pacific coast states, the extreme of
the far west and the eastern coast
states. Most of -the tourists are now
engaged in the homeward trek after
a summer of gypsy life along the
highways of the nation.
AUTO RAGES HOLD
UP ATTENDANCE
AT STATE FAIR
, Total Only Slightly Below that of
Greatest Year on Record
Managers are Elated.
Lincoln, Sept. 7. The auto races
were the big factor in holding up
the attendance at the fair today.
Managers of the state fair board
were convinced this evening that as
a drawing card the gas buggies have
it all over old dobbin.
This afternoon, after the Judging
had been completed, the mammoth
"parade of the kings and queens,"
always a .feature of the last day of
the fair was staged along all the
principal streets of the fair grounds.
Their chests out with new-won hon
ors, all the gentlemen and ladies of
highest quality in the worlds of cat
tledom. pigdom, sheepdom and every
other kind of 'dom lined up and
marched behind the amalgamated
bands, now and then casting a wick
ed royal eye or shaking a nasty regal
foot as the lilt of "You Got to See
Yo' Mammy Every Night," tickled
their ears.
Only one pickpocket case was re
ported today. A Lincoln man told
police that a wallet containing S200
was taken from his pocket while he
stood in front of the moving picture
theatre on the grounds.
"The board of managers is elated,"
said Senator E. R. Purcell, of Broken
Bow, a member of the board.
"I think it is easily the most suc
cessful fair ever held in the state.
The total attendance exceeds every
other year but one, and is under
that year only slightly."
Work Repairing
Senator Purcell attributed heavy
grandstand attendance chiefly to the
quality of the night attraction. The
staging of Ernie Young's great musi
cal revue each evening was an ex
periment. It is the most costly en-
j tertainment ever obtained
for the
fair.
"We have certainly proven amply
to ourselves the wisdom of this in
vestment," Senator Purcell said.
Sam G. Stone departed tills morn
ing for Omaha where he will spend a
few hours consulting a specialist In
that city.
The Ideal Purgative
As a purgative. Chamberlain's
Tablets are the exact thing required.
Strong enough for the most robust,
mild enough for children. They cause
an agreeable movement of the bowels
without any of that terrible griping.
They are easy and pleasant to take
and agreeable in effect. Weyrich &
