AUTOMOBIL.

almost to the place planned as the destination of the tour, and upon nak- ing sharp turn in the wooded road, Judge Masters suddenly found his way blocked by a bear. At the sugges- ton of one of his passengers he decid- ed to send the car ahead at high speed and ram the bear.
 But for the animal making a, quick jump just as the ear came down upon him Bruin might have been knocked under the motor. AS 1t was the rna- chine struck him square1y in the side, both wheels of the left side of the car passing over his body. The bear was unable to show fight and the par ty proceeded to the nearby home stead where the services of Mrs. Da- wis were volunteered to shoot the injured animal.
 '.It is doubtful whether indicision might have left us, unarmed and somewhat frightened, at the mercy of the enraged bear' said one of the party .'but 1t is perfectly obvious that we used the automobile as an effi- cient weapon for hurlfng weight on the bear. I believe this is the most novel bear story that ever. came out of the Sturgeon Lake district. The shock had no appreciab1e effect upon the automobile

AUTO vs. BEAR.

For resourcefuIness in adapting his automobile to a game killing enter prise first prize undoubtedly belongs to Judge w. A. Masters, of Chisholm, Minnesota; who recently when con- fronted with the dilemma of big black bear in the roadway, utilized his Mitchell 5-4 model car as ram to bring down the bear, wounding him so severely that it was comparatively easy matter subsequently for Mrs Ed Davis, wife of a aneighboring home steader, to follow the animal into the brush and bring him down with a well directed rifle bullet sent crash ing into the bears left eye.
 Judge Masters declares that the ex- citement of the involuntary bear hunt and the triumphant return to Chis- holm with the carcass hung over the hood of the automobile caused the biggest kind of a stir in Chisholm and afforded the hunters, amateur and professional, plenty of May-day gos- sip.
 Starting out Sunday May 11th for the Sturgeon Lake country north of Chisholm with the automobile con- taining M. l.. Harris, Miss Masters and a six year old lad, the judge drove without fear of big game although there was no drearna in the car. whan

MOISTURE ELIMINATED.

If every man who owns a motor car could take a day off and go through a big modern tire plant he would dis cover that while rubber itself is the most effective wAter-shedder known. F Is absolutely imperative that all mots- t11re be eliminated in pneumatic tire con sIruetfor F,urtherrnore, these own CTS would realize the great impor- ance of looking after small cuts in the tire tread and closing them when they beneath the tread and breaker strip and into the carcass of a tire prema- ture deterioration is certain to fol- low.
 s.In building up the carcass of a tire out of frictioned fabric. which means heavy cotton cloth impregnated with rubber, we are extremely care ful to use only thoroughly dry ma teria1s,'' says c. B. Whitte1sey, super intendent of the United States Tire Company's Hartford factory. After crude rubber has been carefully wash ed and rolled into sheets of crepe it is hung in drying rooms where a high tenn perature is maintained and where every trace of moisture is removed. The fabric, likewise is run over heat ed rollers to make certain that it is perfectly dry before being subjected to the fracttoning process.
 When a tire is completed 1t is free from moisture on the inside and it re- mains so as long as the tread is in condition to perform it's full duties. flower, small cuts. caused by sharp objects in the roadway, are very apt to appear, even in new tire, and through these openings water event. ually finds It's way to the tire carcass. In time this produces separation of the individual plies of fabric of which the carcass is made up, and the tire rapidly goes to pieces. Breaks in the tread also admit sand and dirt, which cause fabric separation.
 when a Smotorist discovers one or
 more small cuts in the tread of a 1 tire he should close them at once. There are several special preparations for this purpose which can be easily applied after the cut has been thor ough1y washed out The expense amounts to practically nothing and l the saving is bound to be great

HOW TO SECURE ECONOMY.

That one Of the chiefeduties of driv- CTS of motor trucks is to see that their trucks are not subjected to the abuses of overlooking and overspeeding was emphasized by speakers before the Alec Service convention at the Provi- dence factory of the American Loco motive Company. Incidentally, 1t was declared that a number of motor truck ''troubles'' often are ina gined and do not really exist, while others are due to ignorance or neglect on the part of the operator. The best results, it was said, are secured where the owner as well as the driver takes an interest in securing the maximum mileage on the gallon of gasoline.

"Will YOU order an investigation

NO." replied the commissioner.
In one breath he said he did not
believe that the downtown saloons
were violating the law, and In the
next he admitted that he did not know
whether they we're or not.
The commissioner was loath to 60
into details regarding the policy Of
the police department on the saloon
question. He mtimated that the
statement that many downtown ga.

they ornamental features of a dress,
they would be intended for outside
wear and would be of fine material.
A successful way to keep hooks and
eyes closed is to always use a hook
one size larger than the eye. They fit
more closely than those of the same
size. When hooks are bent they should
be removed and replaced with good
ones. If you are doubtful about hooks
being rustproct, drop a little machine
oil into the palm OF your hand and rub
the hooks in it. This Will prevent rust.
Ing, but as there are rustproof hooks
one should always buy that kind.
