who should know, This jacket always
makes a comfortable, useful and nobby
outing garment, for automobiling and
practically every sort of outdoor sport.

Others keep one at the Office and don
it when they assume the duties of the

for the coming season without collars,

Opinions seem to differ as 10 the de-
mand for fancy vests. A few houses
which make speciality Of this kind
of garment are making vigorous efforts
to push them, and report that they are
meeting with great success in this
lire but the trade IN general seem,
to have little use for them.
The "peg.top' effect has vanished
entirely from the trousers made for
the fall and winter season. While
not exactly tight, they are made more
snug, more close-itting, than for
long time past. The "cuff' at the
bottom OF the legs will be noticeable
only by it's absence, and the trousers
will reach to the heels

end of the season you will find chin
chillas very popular. I really believe
that the merchant who plunges on
them will be left; a great many will
be worn, but there will be considera-
Bile dissatisfaction. Many manufac-
turers are experimenting with this kind
Of coat; but in my judgment there
are only three or four manufacturers
in the United States who can turn out
really good chiuchilla. They sell
from $50 up. These coats will be seen
in blues, greys and olive brown.

President Taft'S recent uttrr- ancrS on the growth of Socialism in the United States were prompt cd in reply to pcsSimiStic speech made by Senator Bailey of Texas. The senator warned his hearers that the adoption of Socialism meant trouble for the future gen rratiOnS.
 To this warning President Taft took exception and said: 'I do not think that We arc as near that which he fears and which should fear if thought We were near it --Socialism. have abiding faith in the American people. l have abiding faith after a time--fOr they will come back and diScrimi- nate between what is good cloth and what is fustian.

OLD HOME PAPER
 IS APPRECIATED

Sport, would you mind lettint me look over that newspaper whr, you're through? I wouldn't ask you, only l was raised on that paper in my old home town and the sight of it makes me home- sick as the devil. I remember how l used to go out in front of the house before breakfast and fetch it in for the folks when was little shaver. That was my first chore. I recollect how the newsboy would roll it up and put twist in it to keep it tight and give it fling over the fence, along about daybreak; and some- times you could hear it go bump on the front door, and then you could be sure of finding it all right, if the dog didn't find it first and chaw the ends off.
 But sometimes the boy would n't aim so straight and the paper would light in the flower bed, or get hung up in the hOneysuckle vine, or buried in a snowdrift. I recall one time when I looked and looked, and father and mother came out and looked, and the whole neighborhood came over and looked, and we didn't find it until the next rainStorm, when the caves trough ovcrnowed, and we got ladder and climbed up to. see what was the matter.
 ''Whcn saw you open this pa per just now il was like stepping back ihiry years. They haven't changed the type or anything the ink even has the same old honey smell it. used io have. believe if I was blindfoldcd and you held that paper under my nose l could tell you the name of it. in one guess. Same old head lines, see, same old personal col umn, same old police notes, same old ladies advertising for hired girls, same old jOkcrs' corner that we turned to first when we were kidS--Samc old jokes, too. I rcck- on. It's like an old friend from home, that when you see him you think Time must have overlooked him, somehow, and left him with the same kindly face he had in the old days.

I am a fanatic on automobiles, own
one, and love to drive, but it seems
that nv tires wear out quicker than
they should and consequently my ma
chine Is becoming a burden. Can you
offer some hints as to how the expense
can be lessened2
F. G. Savage.
Since the tire question is the aH-ab-
sOroing topic of conversation among
motorists in general and one of vital
interest to any driver, I quote below a
few hints given out by one of the lead
ing tire manufacturers, which should
be pasted in some conspicuous place in
the garage, as gentle reminder, and
religiOusly followed:
Keep tires fully inflated. Use tires
of ample size. Keep tires in repair.
See that air does not escape from the
valve stem of the tube or elsewhere
Keep tires away from heat, oils and
grease. Jack up the car and partially
deflste the tires if the machine is to
be laid up for any considerable time
II the tires are removed, keep them in
a cool place not subjected to a strong
light or moisture. Watch wheels and
aXels to see that tires are not forced
to run out of true and so subjected to
unnecessary strain and wearing of the
tread. Familiarize yourself with the
construction of the tire you

QUICK NIGHT TRIP
FROM LAS CRUCES
Running Time Is Less Than
Two and a Half Hours
in an Auto.

q. A. Martin, news editor of The FL
PaSo Herald, thinks he holds the rec
crd Tor an aIter-dark trip between Las
cruces ana Ell Paso in an automobile.
With Mrs. Martin, Mrs. N n Walker
and Mrs. r. H Rinehart as passengers
ne made the run from Las Cruces to Ell
Paso in his Chalmers ''30'' in two hours
and % minutes last night. leaving the
Las Cruces fair grounds at $40 IN the
evening and reaching Ell Paso at 1O:43.
Not stop was made between Las Cru
ces and Ell PaSO. Going up, the trip
was made Friday during daylight in
- minutes less time, the party leaving
I;ouault and the Las Cruces fair at eX-
actly 1;30, the running time being two
hours and 10 minutes without a stop
The road is far from good, although
1t is not exceedingly bad except in 4 few
places. The FL Paso county highway,
as far north as Anthony, is still in good
shape with the exception of a few
places, regardless Of the high water this
spring, but north of tnat in DOna Ana
county, apparently no effort has been
made to put the road in condition since
the heavy spring rains and high water,
which flooded the roads in many places.

HOW TO DRIVE;
SKIDDIHG DANCER

CONTINUED From Page ,, this Section-)
Spouse of the road steering wheels
was prompt and sure, however, the
principle was at fault in that the til
Ter motion was opposite to the direc-
ton taken by the car. In other words,
a movement of the tiller or lever to
the right resulted in DETECTING the
course of the car to the left This ar
rangement, to an extent prevented
unison of movement upon the part of
the driver and the car and in the case
of swiftly taking sharp corners tend
ed to cause the occupant of the drivers
seat to lose his balance and, cOnse-
quently, his firm hold upon the tiller
and control over the car. In the case
of the steering wheel, the body of the
driver is naturally leaned IN the direc-
ton in which the wheel is turned and
as the direction Of movement of the
car corresponds with that of the steer
ing wheel, the centrifugal force acting
upon the body tends TO ever sway it in
equilibrium, which is as it should be.
When an experienced driver seats
himself at the wheel, he invariably
Srasps it in both hands, one at either
side, and in such a position as to ad-
NIT of easy access to the motor con-
troll levers and, also, one which will
permit of a full turn in either direction
without removing the hands from the
wheel, position which is at once
comfortable. SdIe ana, IN WORD, cor
rect However, instinct, in this case,
is the best teacher and a few trials of
the different positions in which the
wheel may be held will soon point out
that which is most safe and the least
firing.
As a rule the right hand grasps the
rim of the wheel from underneath
slightly lower than the center. which,
IN great many cars, will allow Of
resting the forearm upon the side Of
the seat. while the left hand grips the
wheel slightly above the center of
the wheel This grip is practical, nat
ural and not at all firing when driv-
ing upon either city streets or ordi-
narily good pike; but when indulging
in speed or travelling rough, tortuous
roads, it will be found that the right
hand will Invariably seek a position
a little higher up on the wheel and
that the left hand will slightly drop
until both are about equally distant
from the body and opposite each other
at about the center of the wheel.
While this position is not the most
comfortable, it is certainly the most
operative one The wheel is most cas-
lily handled when the hands are ap-
proximately opposite each other. Steer
ing with one hand is not advisable at
any time Refrain from grasping the

first ply Of fabric is exposed, even to
a small extent. Buy used, second hand
or repaired tires or tires that are old
with the greatest care, if buy them
you must Have a proper place for
carrying tire inner tubes. Since rear
tires wear more RAPIDLY, fronts and
rears can sometimes be changed about
to good advantage. Also, if one side
of a tire is much worn. it may be well
to turn it face about"

to perspire.
1t might be well to add that intelli-

novice driver than heavy traffic How
ever, II he be careful to avoid, first:
driving IN such a manner as to neces-
state sudden, sharp inclinatiOns Of the
steering wheel; second either the sud-
den throwing in or out of the clutch
and, third, quick, severe applications
OF the brake, IN nine cases out of every
10 he will be quite able to protect
against skidding or side-slipping
The short wheelbase car is at once
more susceptible to siSidding, but it is
also, owing to the short Wheelb2se,
more easily pulled out of the skid.
As a rule when the car begins to move
out of the angle in which the driver is
steering, the amateur will invariably
throw the front wheels in the oppo-
site direction to which the car is skid
ding, in vain effort to check 1t, which
action instead of checking the side
of the rear wheels. This is easily ex-
plainable, as it is readily seen that il
the car be in a side swing and the front
wheels steered opposite to the direc-
ton of travel of the swing, then these
wheels act as pivot on which the
body of the car and rear wheels, i'm
PEELED by inertia, which is increased
BY the sudden StOppage movement OF
the fore part of the car in the direction
Of movement of the side-SWeep, rapidly
increases the speed and consequent
force Of the skid which is quite likely
TO result disastrously, especially IL
upon crowded street or narrow high
way.
The correct method of handling the
steering wheel, when the car begins
to skid, is to at once steer in the di-
rection Of the skid. Now this action
may be exactly contrary to ones in
clination, but it will greatly assist to-
ward quickly restoring the grip of the
tires upon the street or road, as the
case may be- As soon as the driver
feels that this has been accomplished
ne may carefully proceed on his way.
Also, at the moment of side-slippnig,
1t IS extremely unWise to throw out
the clutch and apply the brake (unless
IN very close qUarters), rs this proceed
ure renders the car an absolute power
less dead weight in the hands of the
driver If there is anything like suf-
flcient space in which to recover con-
troll over the car before striking an
obstacle, then correct steering (in the
direction Of the side-slfp) ana a little
