MOTOR CAR JOTTINGS.

No Franklin motor cars of 1910
model are to carry extra tires. This
ing realization that extra tires are
entirely unnecessary II the tire
equipment size is right for the auto
mobile weight. Undoubtedly. the
greatest annoyance today in auto.
MODELLING is tire trouble. This is due
to the strain being greater than the
sustaining ability of the tires. The
loading down of the running board
with equipment in such a way as
to close the entrance to n seat, rs
has been the practice of the past
few years In carrying extra tires,
has produced much dissatisfaction
among users OF motor cars.
The Franklin cars are of light
weight for their size and because of
that fact are particularly easy on
tires. To improve this condition for
1910 there has been an increase of
size of tires for all Franklin models.
The light weight and the larger tires
also minimize the road hock, thus
prolonging the life OF the tires and
increasing the riding comfort of the
passengers.
Tire troubles in the past have
been negligible in the case of the
Franklin; for 1910 they will be
more so because of the use of the
larger size of tire. In the numerous
endurance and reliability contests in
which 1909 models participated tire
trouble with the Franklin entries
was almost unheard Of

views and characteristics from which
this country gathered its earliest set

Two hundred and eighty EIGHT years
ago the first Thanksgiving day was
celebrated, and it was not at that time
Intended to be an annual feast or an
occasion for general social merrymak-
ing. 1t was rather a day appointed
for entirely religious purposes in order
TO give the settlers at Plymouth an OPP
portunity to express their heartfelt
gratitude for the perils they had passed
and for the bounties they were then
enjoying. They had escaped from the
prosecutions of the English church and
had been permitted to settle down
and make a new home for them
selves.
1t had been long year and hard
one. They were surrounded by saw

ly at peace Their fields had yielded
them enough grain to support them In
comfort during the coming winter. and
their houses were built warmly and
strong. Therefore, with the religious
fervor which had prompted them to
such sacrifices, they considered it fitting
that they should return to God some
thanks for what they considered his
many blessings. Accordingly Governor
Bradford in the autumn of 1921 set
aside day to mark the beginning OF
a season of prayer and gratitude.
Here is what Edward Winslow says
about that earliest American day Of
feasting:
