|OR many years mechanical engineers struggled to build automo-
bile engines of higher compression. As compression is increased
the power line goes up and the fuel consumption line goes down
—ordinary gasolines would not withstand this higher compression
without knocks, clicks, or detonations—accumulated carbon deposits in-
creased this compression by decreasing the size of the combustion chamber
and the audible sounds of the engine distress grew louder.
It has been our good fortune to produce a gasoline that positively elimi-
nates clicks, pings, and knocks.

Gulf No-Nox Motor Fuel withstands compression to a high degree; car-
bon, increasing the compression of the engine, ceases to be a nightmare as
long as it does not interfere with valve action. In other words, it puts carbon
to work. More power and greater efficiency is thereby accomplished, re-
sulting in greater mileage.
With Gulf No-Nox Motor Fuel in your tank— on you will get
the story better than we can tell it.
I1 This Guarantee goes with It
Gulf No-Nox Motor Fuel is Non-Noxious, Non-Poisonous and ho more
harmful to man or motor than ordinary gasoline—that it contains no dope
of any kind—that the color is for identification only—that it positively will
not heat the motor summer or winter.
Gulf No-Nox Motor Fuel is priced three cents per gallon higher than
ordinary gasoline—and is worth it.

Schlavs Plea Is Not Guilty.
Ferdinand Schlaps, when ar-
raig d in Judge S. E. Paul’s
court Wednesday, entered a plea
of not guilty of the charge of
murdering Anton and Ludmilla
Geisler at their farm home near
Beim post office, on M'iy 1st.
When brought by Sheriff John
Anderson through the crowd that
filled the space in and in front of
the court room, the youth kept
his eyes on the floor and did not
appear to relish the attention he
attracted. His naturally fair skin
was whiter from the three week’s
confinement but he appeared to
be consid erably heavier than
when first brought to jail.
A. M. Foor, deputy county at-
torney, announced the case of the
State of Montana vs. Ferdinand
Schlaps, No. 169 C. The court
explained to the defendent the
charge against him and that this
was the time set for entering a
plea. “Do you wish to plead guil-
ty or not guilty?” asked the court.
In a voice that could not be heard
in the back of the court room
Schlaps replied “Not guilty.”
The court said that the plea
would require a trial by jury and
that the time could not be ex-
actly fixed at present, but would
probably be late in June or July.
the prisoner back to jail Eric
Mourn of Poplar, appointed by
the court to defend Schlaps, was
present but did not address the
court4
In view of the fact that
Schlaps is reported to have made
repeated oral confessions, and
that a detailed written confession,
signed by him in the presence of
witnessess, is known to be in the
hands of the county attorney,
many in the great throng that
had gathered from all parts of
the county, expected that this
might be the conclusion of the
sensational case. It is not known
what defense Attorney Mourn
be insanity. In his confessions
Schlaps, an 18 year old farm
hand, has given as his motive
for shooting his employer and
wife the desire to possess their
new Ford sedan.—Wolf Point

Mrs. Jos. Mikulik has as her
family guests her sister, Mrs. 0.

The sheriff was directed to takei^ill set up but presumably it will.
H. J. Schornak, who is seek-
ing re-election to the office of
Tax Collector, was a brief caller
at this office Saturday. He was
accompanied by Mrs. Schornak,
