We are informed that the old familiar
tuneful operas like "Trovatore," Martha" :"
EZRA Diavolo" and the like have been ta-
booed, discountenanced and relegated to the
back tier of the musical morgue. Hence
forth nothing goes in polite circles, at least
until the mad fancy subsidies, but "Parsi-
fall" "Gotterdammerung" and other noisy,

ployer of competent man who has gained the 10y

suggest that his loyal employee "slow up little than
he finds cause to punch him up. In the measured
working day it must be taken for granted that this
decent, loyal employee year after year will find
sion enough to tax himself in his service. Which
makes extra night hours distinct risk.

Natural Air and Gas
Air pressure,

The Diamond Rubber company at
Arkon. O., and the local branch have
just finished some very interesting
tests of the relative lasting qualities
of natural air and carbonic gas In auto
tires. Three tires were pumped up
at 1:30 D. m, October IA, by air to
100 pounds pressure each. At the same
time three similar sized tires We're in
f1ated with carbonic gas, with the same
pressure. on October 21, at 80 p. m,
the three air-flled tires registered 92
pounds each, while the three gas-filled
tires stood Al, so and 81 each.
Should an owner pump his tires to
100 pounds, with carbonic gas, and
not have a noticeable puncture, he Is
likely to assume even week later he
has been running with the proper in
hation, whereas he really has only half
enough, and during which time consid-
erable damage may have been done to
the body of the tire.
Speaking on this point, c. E. Mathew
son, Pacific coast manager of the Dia-
mond Rubber company, says: There's s
only one sure way of getting prop
er imitation and proper service from
tires, and that is to keep them blown
up, so that they stand full and round
under a maximum load when in mo-
ton. IL this is done there will be a
decided increase in tire service

IMPORTANCE OF HAVING
RIGHT AMOUNT OF AIR
CAN'T TELL BY KICKING TIRES
WITH TOE OF BOOTS
Use an Air Gauge, and Tires Are Then
Practically Guaranteed, Instead
of Causing Ill
Feeling

If automobile owners only realized
the Importance of having the right
amount of air in their tires at all times
and did not overload them, they would
have much less trouble from this
source, and relations between maker
and user undoubtedly would be more
congenial. The great trouble is that a
man will pump up his tires until he
thinks he has enough air in them, or
has pumped, as he thinks, long enough,
without a thought of the load to be
carried. Sometimes he will kick the
tires with the toe of his shoe, after
having pumped them up and If they
seem hard enough, let it go at that
Few use a gauge to find whether or
not just the right amount of air has
been pumped into each tire. But those
who do are the gamers. H. S. Firestone
of the Firestone Tire company claims
that tires made by his concern rarely
give trouble but, ON the contrary, guar
anteed mileage when the right amount
of air pressure is kept in the tubes. In
order that the owner may know what
this should be, he has prepared the
following table.

Lewis r. Speare, president of the A. A

"A word now to the motor user: As
an individual you cannot bring about
the result you want nor yet as a local
club, nor as a single state federation.
You must combine nationally-the man
into the local club, that club into a
state bodies. The national idea was
compact national organization. No
single club, local or state can do this
work in the American spirit; it must
be a representative body rejecting the
will and action of the local movement
everywhere"
That this national idea is being we'll
worked out is amply shown by the fact
that the national association showed an
increase of approximately so per cent
in membership during the past year,
its present membership being close to
