Church Notes WT wars nil rnn tMH an t of the tart that the public press was right when it declared Sunday to be the hottest day of the season, having a record I of 98 decrees. The farmer would' Ray "Wb nPPrt this iot woathor for the corn." The preacher perhaps would say "Amen" and it is also God's reminder of the old fashioned! thmin?v nf hn firo and rtamna - tion. It may be somewhat uncomfort- able to be stylish and have to sit in he Pew and listen to some sermons but even at that it would be more profitable to endure this one hour of formal worship rather than spend a whole Sunday at Krug park with all I the lively amusements. Strange to say, but it Is a truth that many peo ple accept the invitations as are printed on the auto caliope. The ff,ro r,i, nignt that one ruling station just this week dispensed with 15,000 gallons of gas and oil. This may give the reader an idea of the cost of the Sunday amusements. Now this amount of gas for one day as per the WOAW broadcasting station Is at least a sum of $3,000. If the world would put Into the coffers of our churches such sums of money I tell you we as church folks would be right in the front ranks doing the Christ. Are we as a christian na- tion making the right use of the au tomombile? What will our country be when Mr. Ford puts out hi3 next 10,000.000 Fords? We will have more filling stations need more mon ey, enlarge our parks, empty more churches and perhaps finally land in a bottomless pit.

WHO SHOULD PAY FOR THE BUILDING OF ROADS I John Smith, who lives three miles from town drives a Ford for which privilege he pays an annual license fee of $10. He is an Industrious man and spends most of his time on I the farm, but two or three times a j week he gets hi3 Lizzie out to make ' a trip to town, he brines the family j in to church on Sundays, and now j and then takes a pleasure trip into the next county. In a year he drives some 2.000 miles. The license fee costs him half a cent per mile. John Jones is a traveling man and he also drives one which made De troit famous. His work keeps him on the road six days in the week and on Sunday he and his wife and babies drive for fun. During the year his mileage reaches 40,000. He also pays a lceis,e fee of 1116 "cense fee costs hlm one-quarter of a mill per lf. , , , ' Colh men "ave paid the same fee for road maintenance, but John Jones 1,as traveled twenty times as x-amici m u. suppose a gasoline tax ot 2c per ' gallon to be in force. If each man makes 20 miles per gallon, it costs each one-tenth of a cent per mile for road maintenance. Farmer Smith pays for the 2,000 miles he drives during the year, the not unreason able fee of $2. Traveling Man Jones for driving over 40,000 miles of state road, pays $40. Each man pays in proportion to'' the amount he has j used the road. Mr. Jones, traveling 20 times as far as Mr. Smith, pays 20 times as much for road up-keep. WANTED TO BUY A few calves.

IUST because there'3 plenty of oil in up lots of oil, you cant be sure your motor is getting proper lubrication. Bearings may be heating and parts wearing out at top speed. The temperature of the pistons and the cylinder walls varies from 400 to 900 F. Unless your motor oil is of the right grade, the normal -operating heat of the motor can destroy its lubricating efficiency. y Years of laboratory and practical service tests have proved the lubricating efficiency of Polarine. It resists heat and always flows freely. Made in five grades light, medium, heavy, special heavy and extra heavy- but one unsurpassed quality. Consult the Polarine Chart for the grade best suited to your motor. Stand ardize its use and your motor will run quietly a protective film guarding every moving part against friction and wear. Ask for Polarine by name and be sure you get what you ask for. Sold where you see this sign.
