almost startling,
"one proof that Indianapolis keep its
freers on the pulse Of the buying public
q that regular models OF the Henderson
car are offered with wire wheel equip
n,ent. The Henderson had the honor to
he among the first OF the American cars
IN Offer regular models using the de-
nountable wire wheels
81 suppose the biggest advantage Of
wire wheels over wood wheels is the fact
that they increase tire mileage. There
ere many reasons why they should do
this. One is that the wood in the ordi-
nary rims and spokes is a non-conductor
of heat This means that in hot weather
or under the stress of high speed the
heat piles up in the tires and can't escape.
And what heat does TO tires is well known.
With a wire wheel the metal is a good
conductor Of heat The heat stored up In
the tires is carried off by the wire rim
into the wire spokes and in that way dis
persed harmlessly, much as a cup Of hot
coffee can be quickly cooled by placing
silver spoon in It,
Foreign experts recently conducted ex-
neriments with a number of taXicabs
equipped with wire and wood wheels. In
this experiment an increase of SIS per cent
In tire mileage was noted on a car using
wire WHEELS. Suppose you could guarantee
motorist a saving of % per cent in tire
bills as & result Of wire wheels. Wouldn't
he fairly Jump al it?
This brings up another advantage Of
wire wheels The supply OF wood suitable
for making spokes is being exhausted
fore really desirable wood will be almost
impossible TO obtain. This means that
some other wood less durable will be sub
stituted When II is the wire wheel will
nave all the advantage of durab ility.
In a mere matter Of speed car equipped
with wire wheels showed several seconds
advantage 10 the mile over the same car
equipped with wood wheels.
"One reason why wire wheels give an
advantage in speed is that they are
lighter. A "a by wood wheel with tire
will weigh something like 7slt pounds.
This same wheel in wire weighs only ASH
pounds. Another feature that looks good
is the quick detachability Of the wire
wheels a car equipped with wire wheels
needs to carry but one spare wheel. This
fits on either front or rear. and weighs
only u pounds more than an extra tire
and rim 1t can be changed In 30 seconds
after the wheel is lacked up. One nut
tightens the extra wheel in place"

SILENCE IN THE GARF0RD
Elimination of Wood in Bodies
Abolishes Noise.

The automobile has been credited with a
great many things in its comparatively
short life. but never until recently has It
been accused OF criticising Noah Webster
and other learned gentlemen who at
various times have compiled OF revised
dictionaries The accusation will have 10
stand, however, according TO the state
ment Of Vice. President G. w. Bennett OF
the Garford Company. OF Elyria, Ohio,

Grand Central Palace Show last night.

Kidnapping Towns

Amusing episodes In the growth OF
lndiana's new steel town, Gary, are
told by Graham Romeyn Taylor in an
article in The Survey, discussing some
OF the civic problems of the place.
He says:
"Garys annexation experiences riv-
al the most complicated matrimonial
career that ever found its way into a
divorce court
It seems that Indiana has law
permitting any town or city, by &C
ton Of Its board or council, to annex
contiguous outside. territory at any
time. II 1t would avoid being sum-
marily Kidnapped, the contiguous ter
ritory must file in the proper court
within thirty days petition signed
by two thirds of all its voters. The
burden of the situation is thus put,
not on those who do the annexing,
but on those who want to stay indie
pendent.
"The game was started in the
spring of 1910 when the city Of East
Chicago, Ind. Immediately west OF
Gary, suddenly embraced the larger
city of Hammond, which adjoins 1t
on the far side The councilmen of
Gary, fearing that East Chicago in
her thirst for dominion might without
warning turn about and swallow up
the future citadel OF steel, decided as
one city father declared to beat her
to It,
Accordingly, the mayor and the
nine councilmen hastily met before
daylight the very next morning and
officially annexed the newly enlarged
East Chicago. Once started, Gary
annexed the town of Tolleston, just
to the southwest, and later the town
of Miller, just to the east.
When these various places began
to wake up to the situation a number
of by no means uninteresting parleys
resulted in a family understanding.
East Chicago said she had not
thought of wanting Gary and Gary ac-
knowledged that the only reason she
had annexed East Chicago was to
prevent the reverse happening. Ham
mond put in her plea for single bles-
sedness.
80 they all went to the superior
court and agreed to disannex. Gary
wanted to keep Tolleston and Miller,
so they did not figure in these pro-
ceedings. Miller gained enough sig
natures to her petition to be allowed
to 60 her own way But Tolleston
failed to do so and thus became a
part of Gary which thereby swelled
to an area OF thirty-two square
miller

Third Week In
August
EXPECT MORE THAN 500

vded for Manu-

EXPECT MORE THAN 500

Definite announcement was made
today that the big state manufacture
ers meeting to be held here will be
postponed. I'VE feel that there is no
question of postponement," said Char
les ]. Kirch who is one OF the most
active OF the local manufactures in
the association branch here. Il be-
Ilieve all of the local manufacturers
feel 1t necessary and Mr.. Wrightman
agrees with us.
The date was automatically set by
the bylaws Of the State Manufacture
ers Association as May 6, Z, and
and So announced in the Iowa Fac
tories magazine, the Official organ of
the association. A short time ago G.
A, Wrightman, secretary Of the asso-
citation, came to Keokuk 70 talk over
the situation and the question of post
ponement met favor with him.
The date which meets with most
favor at present is August is, 16 and
II. 1t is certain that the meeting
will be held after the Tri-State Power
Zone celebration and after the new
Hotel Iowa Is completed The orig
inal da.e in May was considered very
favorable as 1t would give the manu-
facturers opportunity to see the power
plant while the construction work was
still going on but the question of car
ing for the visitors forced the post
ponement.
There are expected more than five
hundred manufacturers here for three
days and the hotel capacity of the
city will be taxed. With no chance
of the new hotel being completed by
May and the local manufacturers at
first considered the possibility of car
ing for large number of visitors in
Pullman cars set out on sidings. The
manufacturers convention will be the
largest Of the sereveral to be held
here this summer and will bring
some Of the most prominent men in
Iowa here and some of the best known
experts In the country who will make
addresses.

Any Keokuk family can make a
big saving and also be much healthier
by eating the deliciously appetizing
Minnesota" Spaghetti at least twice
each week in place of meat.
Minnesota Spaghetti is four times
as nutritious as beef-steak and yet
costs only about one cent dish.
1t contains more proteids than most
foods and Is therefore more strength.
giving and less fattening.
It is fine for children making their
bodies strong and healthy. And they
are very fond of its rich, nut-like
flavor.
