Hers Is a book that might have been anticipated; nay, was almost a certainty. Its worth consists chiefly in the opportunity It gives the reader to compare the Livermore plan that was accepted for the prize with those of some of his competitors, and these his most worthy. Kane persons did not envy Miss I.ana her Job of scan ning the 22,OOfl and more plans sub piltted. Of these she writes (In the April Century): '"yrom the obvious character of the persons requesting conditions, os well ns from the Internal evidence In the plans themselves. It has been plain (hat the competitors Included brilliant and profound thinkers well at home among white dreams of statecraft; ex perienced statesmen; professors In large and small universities: practical politicians; lawyers dealing with inter national affairs as an avocation; ex service men, not always able to pro pose anything, but eager to testify to the need of having something proposed; students fired with philoso phies and stirred by compelling be liefs; engineers smitten with a sharp sense of the waste of war ami deter mined to deni with first causes; econo mists, protagonists of the liberal cur rents In modern economic thought: school teachers; Iron molders; car penters, and farmers. There were others also, of rourse. who competed from more casual motives, Including the woman who wrote, in sending her plan, that she had already won one prize In her church for the best Jelly recipe and hoped she might he suc cessful In this Instance also."

That the book should he In the hands of any who Is Interested In the con sideration of the final settlement of the world's greatest problem, how to do away with war, hardly' needs stating.

Control of the Mind Will Lead to Health How Mental and Physical F.f ficicncy May Be Believed l>y Well and Ailing Alike. '•MOWIT.TZING THE MID BRAIN" By Frederick Pierce, author of “Our 1'n conscious Mind, and How to Fee It." E. P. Dutton A Co.. New York. Mr. Pierre holds out great hope for the neurotics, and encouragement for those who nre truly healthy. In this work. A widely known research psychologist, he calls together the re cult of his own and others' investiga tions and experiences, end gives his conclusions and advice in language devoid of technical phrasing. Careful ly analyzing the human body and its functions, as well as the two brain nerve systems, he shows what pert of the brain controls three fourths of the mental and physical energy, and how to put it to use and make the most of it. Not pretending to offer a cure for all bodily ailments, he does show how many that are distinctly traceable to a disordered nervous system, result ing from the faulty use of the brain, can be corrected if not entirely re moved. There 1» no trace of Couelsm In his suggestions, although he gives such credit as is due the French chemist who created such a furore in this country. Especially does Mr. Pierce address himself to the well who are anxious to Increase their mental ef ficiency, at the same time avoiding fatigue and its attendant evils. Great possibilities of brain and nerve man agement are opened up by the writer. IOWA TOWNS SEEK HARDING HIGHWAY Special Dispatch to The Omaha Bee.

J B. IJd plnrott company. Love is Elinor’s forte. And she plays It strong In "Six Da vs.” Imprisoned In a war dugout In France two sweethearts are wed by a. priest who is killed by the explo sion w'hich wounded him fatally. The rites are known to no one else. When they are rescued at last, the bridegroom Is compelled to drop from sight for months. The bride Is faced with a tragic altuatlon. Elinor leads her to the altar with the bridegrooms best friend—whose proposals she had spurned before her secret marriage. And Elinor leads her from the al tar—but to enjoy the suspense of the story. It must be read. The motion picture of “Six Days" was shown in Omaha. As usual, the manuscript far surpasses the plctur ization. "Six Days" Is superior to "Man and Maid," but cannot compare with "The Great Moment." Thriller That Has Old Time Snap in Story In "The City of the Sun" (Georgo AA\ Jacobs and company., Philadel phia), Edwin I.. Sabin has pulled the throttle of his Imagination wide open and let it go down the trark at top speed. His time Is about 1825, his locale the Interior of Mexico, his characters a young Kentuckian, a beautiful Spanish girl, a cruel and crafty don, some murderous nath's. a group of derelicts Irorn the Zebulon Pike exploring expedition, and a left over hand of Aztecs, who Inhabit the fabled city of the Sun, In the midst of the Desert of Hell, on the banks of the iAke of Gold, which washes the rim of the great placer field. Out of these Mr. Sabin has con cocted a first-class thriller one of the sort you read to the end. It glows with romance, adventure, the sacrifice of love, and its rewards. Sang His Way Into Jail and Out Again Bojer’s “Prisoner Who Sang" Is One of Norwegian Writ er’s Best Creations. "THK PRISONER WHO SANO.” by Jr,ban Holer. ghe Century Comrany. New York. Johan Bojer, Introduced to us by "The Hast of t: m Vikings,” has fol lowed that palpable hit with another. In "The Prisoner Who Sang,” he givea a prose "Peer Gynt," the ad venture) of a aoul condemned to struggle In the body of a man; who laughed when others wept, who felt an Impulse to mischief, when others were most serious. He awore In church, when all were weeping, and because he was the only one who did not stop weeping, he wae located as the offender: He sang, too, and this led him Into adventures with girls, and then with women, and these naturally led to anything but confinement for his spirit. Hs sang In prison, too. whence the name of the book. He had hla talen. end It did not rust. His great desire Is to take on parts and play them out. In jail a doctor dla rovers he would be a wonderful actor if he had a chance, and so proceeds to giva him an education and then puta him In the hands of a theater manager, who develops him Into a great actor. But Andreas reaches thst stsge where he can not trust himself and the part he is playing, and so he loses all. Most tragic of all, he misses the really great love that was hia and he not knowing It. There ta a tenderness and a pthos In this man of Bojer's that Is missing In the sardonic Peer Gynt, and for that he Is the more human and the more l kely to have the sympathy of the roa der.

I hese parts—which look no different from part* of lesser quality but actually are vastly different are the heart and soul of all the good you hear about the Hupmobile. In them is bound up the long life of the car—all its virtues of low costs and few replacements, of superior performance and high running economy. You may never see them throughout the years that you would own a Hupmobile. That, it seatns to us, is the highest kind of superiority. The 1 iupp factory could use materials of lesser quality, it could manufacture them into parts at lower cost, if it chose. But if that were to be done, the 1 fupmobile would sink to the dead level of motor cars, instead of being the supenor automobile it is widely acknowledged to be.

IT is a fact quite gen erally recognized by the majority of owners and operators of motor vehicle equipment that one of the most important factors necessary to promote all ’round satisfactory operation at a minimum cost of upkeep is Correct Lubrication. Correct Lubrication means not only that the engine be kept eup plied with a sufficient quantity of the proper kind and grade of motor oil, but that the gears in the transmission and differ ential be lubricated with a gear grease which will follow the gears, and that the many points on the chassis where friction occurs or where road dust and rust are likely to accumulate be lubricated regularly with the proper grade of grease. In order to give our friends and patrons an opportunity to secure high pressure chassis lubrication sendee we have equipped our modern downtown sendee station at \ 12th and Howard Sts. with the necessary facilities which will be in the charge of g trained attendant. The charge for Chassis Lubrication sendee is nominal—ranging from 75 cents per car for Fords and Chevrolet's to a maximum not exceeding $1.50 per car for the larger makes of automobiles —and includes the grease used, which is our Sinclair Shamrock Lubricant A Pur* P*trol*um Product and 100% Lubricant k - ;(Al«mit* Part* Extra) • • Our downtown Sendee Station Is also equipped with four drain age pits, enabling us to give you prompt Crank Case Drainage Service.
