FOREIGN DESIGNERS
NO LONGER NEEDED
Local Motorist Says Ameri-
cans Know More About
Automobiles.

'"The Chicago Automobile Show has
furnished conclusive proof that Euro
pean ideas of design and construction
no longer give the basis for designers
of American cars to work upon," says
q local motorcyclist.
Careful comparison between Amer
lean and European models has con-
WINGED me that We are more than hold
ing our own with our friends across
the pond American designers seem
to have developed sort of sixth sense
that has enabled them to combine the
best of European ideas with their own
to excellent advantage. The result Is
car distinctively American in design.
with every refinement in construction
and material that appears In the high
est class foreign car.
Before the day of the automobile
carriage-makers were accustomed to
look to Europe for the most advanced
ideas. 1t was only natural that with
the development of the motor car the
same rule should hold good. But the
tremendous advance of the industry in
this country has given designers the
confidence to go ahead with their orr
ginal ideas, and this years shows are
the greatest compliment to their sue
cess.

MOUNTAIN SHEEP
GREATEST JUMPERS
Week Old Rams Are Able to
Outrun Horse and Out
wit Pursuers

BUTTE, Mont, Dec 3.-Columbia
Gardens, Butte's pleasure park. has
added to its geological department
two mountain sheep, believed to be
the only two specimens in captivity.
The mountain sheep are the wisest.
wariest and widest OF animals that
inhabit the dragged ranges and few
of this species have been captured
alive.
Thanks to the interest taken by
Supt. James Galen. OF Glacier National
park, and the untirtng efforts OF two
rangers-N. II. Pearl and w. J. Cav
anaugh-Butte can boast two of these
animals.
The rangers tell an interesting story
of the capture, for 1t was not done In
day. For three days and three
nights, without sleep and with rests
that were but sporadic, Pearl and Cav.
anaugh trailed their quarry. This
was the end OF threeweek chase. AT
last they caught these widest Of wild
things. They are rams, little more
than two weeks old. yet still able To
outrun the average horse.
The men carried the kicking
squirming. fighting lambs 20 miles
over ridge and through valley to Mid
vale, the eastern entrance to the Clio
cier National park. Mr.. Pearl says:
THE sheep were caught In the con-
tinental divide near Cutbank pass, at
an elevation Of about 5000 and 5000
feet. They were about week old,
think. We had been at 1t three weeks
before we had our chance. These
mountain sheep are much wiser than
mountain goats.
They know every rock in the hills
and the slightest disturbance sends
them bounding of. Many times have
we looked at bands Of sheep at long
distance through field glasses. We
would lie perfectly still behind rocks,
but never was II more than few min
utes until some old eve would spy us
and give warning.
The little sheep can outrun horse
almost at birth, and these two led us
of places SO high we thought they had
surely been killed, upon lodges where
a man could not have stood.
I'VE never really caught up with
them. Finally, seeming to realize that
we could not be shaken OF, they lost
their cunning and we caught them in
a trap in the cleft in the rocks. They
couldn't get out Of this place. and we
had them"
You have no idea from what
heights mountain goat can leap,
said Ranger Cavanaugh. I've seen
them jump from the dizziest places
and alight with all four feet punched,
az light as cat. Never have / seen
one injured. These Big Horn sheep
are the greatest leapers In the world.

TIRE PRESSURE
IS IMPORTANT
BY r. A. HENDERSON,
Manager Adjusting Department, The
Goodyear Tire q Rubber Co.,

Akron, o.
The importance Of keeping pneu-
matte automobile tire inflated to the
proper pressure. and avoiding the
evil OF underinflation, is something
that can never be overemphasized
IL less than the proper pressure be
carried the weight OF the car will not
be properly sustained and as con
sequence, there will be more or less
flattening out where the tire touches
the ground. This not only subjects
the casing to destructive bending
action when in motion, but renders II
susceptible TO injury from bruises and
bumps which fully inflated tire
would safely resist
The same condition occurs when a
car with It's extras Is not equipped
with tires large enough to properly
support the load. and although II be
properly inflated the weight fiattens
Il out where IL rests on the ground
Just IA iny the case OF tire large
enough but not inflated to the proper
pressure The extra strain thus I'M
posed not only breaks down the side
walls. but increases susceptibility to
all the various forms OF trouble.
Proper attention to- imitation will
usually insure good service. For the
man who exercises care In this par
ticular but who Is still unrewarded
with the good service usually returned
by this precaution. the solution lies In
the use OF the oversize tire--the larg-
est lire that fits each rim.
Usually. IL Is by experience that the
OlotorfSf dfa.Ovare no Eaa eutIfpupd
his car with tires that are too small.
RE then desires TO change to the reg
ular oversize tire for his rims. For
making this change. the mapufactur-
er has provided every convenience.
