Goodyear Prices
1t is Folly Today to Pay More

There exists now new, compelling
reason for buying Goodyear tires. 1t re-
suits from War conditions.
These leading tires-built of extra fine
rubber, in the same way as always-are
selling today at June prices.
You will find today very wide difference
between most tire prices and Goodyears-
Due to Quick Action
Early in August-when war began-the
worlds rubber markets seemed closed to us.
Rubber prices doubled almost over night
Men could see no way to pay for rubber
abroad, and no way to bring it in. We like
others-in that panic-were forced to higher
prices. But we have since gone back to prices
we charged before the war, and this is how
We did it
We had men in London and Singapore when
the war broke out. The larger part of the
worlds rubber supply comes through there.
We cabled them to buy up the pick of the rub
ber They bought-before the advance, $780,
900 pounds of the finest rubber there.
Nearly all this is now on the way to us.
And it means practically all of the extra-grade
rubber obtainabe abroad.
Today We have our own men in Colombo,
Singapore and Para. Those are the worlds
chief sources of rubber. So We are pretty well
assured of constant supply, and our pick of
the best that's produced.
We were first on the ground We were quick
est in action. As result, we shall soon have in

Be Careful Now

In Goodyears we pledge you the same grade
tire as always And that grade won for Good
years the top place in Tiredom-the largest sale
in the world
And, for the time being our prices are the
same as before the war We shall try to keep
them there.
We accept no excessive orders, but dealers
will be kept supplied And we charge them,
until further notice, only ante-bellum prices
That means that Goodyears-the best

Now Inferior Grades Cost Double

About the only crude rubber available now
for many makers is inferior. In ordinary times.
the best tire makers refuse it. Much of it had
been rejected. But that "off rubber now sells
for much more than we paid for the best
The results are these:
Tire prices in general are far in advance of
Goodyears. And many tire makers short Of
supplies, will be forced to use secondhand
rubber.

W. C. T. U.

Opening remarks of the president, Mrs. Sam o. Logan at the public meeting Thursday afternoon, which were requested for publication.
 It must be remembered that this meeting was in observance of the Ma tional Constitutional Prohibition Amendment day as instituted by the National w. c. T. U.
 What brought us to this hour?
 "Yes, this hour when the whole na- tion is engaged in fasting and prayer for victory in this remarkable cam paign for National Constitutional Pro- hibition. Three hundred thousand women today, on pended knee and with fervent heart are interceding in one mighty voice for victory. Doesn't this seem like the holiest of days? Is there not a peculiar reverence and confidence in the very atmosphere which we have not felt before? There is thrill of unwonted joy and faith in the fact that so many christian minds are centered on one thought at one time.
 Do we think we can change God by this prayerful attitude? Nay, verify. He has always been ready with his love and help. It has been left to us to get ready. This blending our pray CT as one holy encense raised to Him iniects new courage into us and bids us go forward unto conquest.
 Not until we are ready does God give the victory, and it has taken

SET PETTY THIEF TO WORK
Scheme of Dorchester (Mass.) Judeo That Seems to Have Much to
 Recommend It.

A Dorchester boy of twenty years was convicted before Judge Sullivan of the municipal court of Boston, of stealing from store laces valued at $73.0S. The judge fined him S15 and told him he must go to work and earn the money and pay the fine at the rate of S3 a week The boy has never worked, and he may have one hard life for time to get the 8 a week, but at that the judge was lenient with him, as he might have sent him to jail or made him pay a fine equal to the value of the goods he stole. It Is the opinion of many judges that the work fine is the winner for keep ing petty thieves and some other criminals out of the crooked ways. Work is a harsh word for the boy who has never done 1t and sometimes 1t sounds even worse to boys who have blundered along at listless jobs. But 1t Is a great corrector of evil if 1t is applied enough of the time to keep the criminal mhd busy at the legiti- mate.-Worcester Telegram.

Storms, like pineapples, as a rule do not originate in the United States. They come to us, some from the Phil ippines, Japan, Siberia, Alaska. Cana da or the Gulf of Mexico. The Wea- ther Bureau get cable, telegraphic or wireless notice of a foreign storm. Station after station or vessel after vessel reports the storms arrival in its neighborhood, so that the general direction and rate of progress can be determined very nearly. In fact, the arrival of some storms can be foretold ten days in advance.
 When weather disturbances are re- ported, the forecasters know from ex- perience about how long it takes them to reach our Pacific Coast, and then how long after they will reach the Atlantic Coast. For example, if a storm coming from Siberia drifts eastward around the North Pole and reappears in Alaska, it should appear in Washington and Oregon in about two days; should get to the Great Lakes in six days and to the Atlantic Coast in seven or eight days.
 Unexpected conditions may delay storms or divert them from the straight track just as a refrigerator car may be thrown off it's schedule or be shipped by accident on wrong road. Some of these storms deplete themselves by running into regions of high barometer which are of greater magnitude and extent than the storm itself. Some of them, however, travel completely around the world.
 To keep tab on cold waves that come into the United States from Ca nada and Alaska, the Weather Bureau studies the Canadian Weather reports England sends reports from Iceland, the British Islands and Continental Europe, and daily reports come from St. Petersburg on the conditions in Russia and Siberia.
 The same businesslike system used in tracing the track of storm is ap- piled in determining the arrival of frosts.

ed by governments, presided over by rulers of various nations, and appro- priations made whereby the delegates of these congresses were appointed by the government and their expenses paid. So much has grown out of this that the utterances from medical ex- perts are found in every magazine condemning the sale and use of alco- holland other drugs that tend to make fiends.
 "So many things have conspired to bring us to this hour that I have not time to enumerate.
 When the Legislature of Maine, the home of our National President was about to enter the throes of her first late war for resubmission, she had letters already written, and in less than a half day after the hour struck for reSubmiSsion there were groups of women in every corner of the state working for it's defeat, which was ac- complished after one of the most strenuous battles ever fought on land or sea.
 "Then the liquor force not being sat isfied with their defeat, the Governor who was elected on whisky platform called an extra session of the legisla- ture to bring about resubmission, but failed, and amid the smoke of their last conflict our National President, who said that if the burning of her body out on the public square would hold the prohibitory law in the statute books of her beloved state, gladly would she offer it up, came the pro- clamation for a Great Crusade to carry the vital truth to the people in all lands, and through them place pro- hibition in the law of all nations and ultimately in the law of the world"

The associated press reports giving forecast of the coming message of inc president to congress is full of in spiration and hope. There is nothing pertain or definite about it to be true, but we are informed that it is the de- kire of the administration to reduce Inc debatable area around the Sher- han act. to make business conditions hore certain and less speculative as |o what the law is. Certainly this is desirable change. The old idea that Ignorance of the law excuses no man |s perfect joke when experience has hroven that no man can know what Inc law is. Big business heretofore | as been taking the chances on this bncertainty. They were not taking I1uch chance either in view of the fact hat very little effort has been made to |nforce the law heretofore. It has (hken the legal department of the kovernment several long years to dis
