HELEN WILLS; MARY BROWNE IN BACKGROUND,
PRICE'S MOTOR LUBRICANTS
FOR SLOW CARBONISATION.
A British Car lubricated with British Oil, wins the 24 hours French Grand Prix at
Le Mans against 41 Competitors.
PRICE'S OIL was used throughout on the Bentley, driven by Mr. Jon F. Durr, assisted by Mr. F. "C. CLEMENT, which scored. this brilliant success.
24 hours at top speed calls for the finest qualities of man and machine.
This further success for PRICE'S OIL is yet additional testimony' to the efficiency of the Compound Lubricant, ie., a blend of refined neutral fatty oil with specially selected pure hydrocarbons.
Motorines and Huiles,, which are also rich compound lubricants, are preferable for use in this country where, as yet, unlimited speeds are practically speaking impossible.
Huile de Luxe does not contain, and never has contained, castor Oil in any shape or form. It owes its speedy and clean running properties to other constituents. It is unique in that it is suitable alike for speeding or for pottering.
For easy, smooth and faster running use PRICE'S HUILE DE LUXE IN 2 GLN TINS. $6 PER TIN.
AND
PRICE'S GEAR OIL
IN 1 GLN TINS. $3 PER TIN.

Mary K. Browno of California 'last autumn exploded the theory that golf and tonnis, like cucum- bors and ice cream, prosent an impossible combination.
Miss Browne used to be the hot shot of America's racquet wiol- dars. Ten years ago she was the national champion and the bright young birds who pounded typo. writers in those days called her a "supor-champion," and hinted that it would be a hot day in Decomber when she was beaton.
Of course, she was eventually boaton like all the invincibles are Hooner or later, and then sho turned to golf. At first sho contented herself with puroly | local engagements in which sho acquitted herself with what is known as distinction, buit: Inst year the arbition to do bigger and better things seized bor.
Entering the national cham- poinship for the first time she noti only qualified handily but went right on through the field to the finale, where she was finally knocked off by Dorothy Campbell .Hurd's steady machine-like play..
THE TWO GAMES BLEND.
Though defeated, Mary K. Browne demonstrated that a long and enthusiastic devotion to tennis does not necessarily.bar one to greatness as a golfer. IB- deed, Miss Browne's technique as a golfer was said to be oven better than her old grip on tennis.
Inspired probably by Miss Browne's success, Helon Wills, presont national tennis champion the Mary K. Browne of today has taken up golf and an- nouncement is made she intends to compote in the local tourna- ments the coming summer,
'There is no reason in the world why Miss Wills shouldn't get just as far in golf as Miss Browne has. Indeed she fought to Eget farther. She is, for odol thing, younger and is beginning at an earlier age. She has a calm competitive tempora- ment and that is important in golf. MAY WIN BOTH TITLES. What's more, she is rugged, enough for testing tournament or- deals and she has been through the milhoften enough to face any kind of an assignment with per- fect poise and confidence..
It is hoped that Miss Wills will go in for golf with the same energy and interest she has lavished on tennis. If she does she ought to come closs, in time, to winning the national championship. It is not inconceivable that she might. reach the heights in golf while. still dominating the tennis field. Tilden says Miss Wills' is good jenough to hold the tennis title for five or seven more years. If she is ever to be a great golfer it will be within that time.
A
double tills-holder in wo- men's golf and tennis would be somewhat of a rarity, like a post- office pan that writes without soratching.

Cupt, Scotts Old Vessel,
In shipping and other circlos great interest is being taken in the partial rebuilding at Portsmouth of the Discovery, Captain Ro- bert Scott's old ship, in which he made his momórable. voyago to the Antarctic in the years 1901- 1904.
