NO EXCUSE FOR EARLY. RISING
Man Who Gets Up at Dawn Is Stupid,
Is Assertion Made by Father
Dwight.

The arrogance of the man who
arises to the minor heroism of cold
bath has been complained of by less
heroic folk who arise to tepid or
warm one To be set apart by the
ability to stand the shock of cold wa
ter has seemed to less vigorous folk
an unsubstantial claim to immortality.
1t lacks moral sufficiency and is too
much made of by the cold bathers.
Another arrogance is given consid-
Grafton by the Rev. Walter Dwight,
S. T., in America. It is the arrogance
of early risers. Father Dwight denies
them heroism and enters into doubt
as to their intelligence. AS a rule he
finds them a notably arrogant set, "
appearing to believe that they move
on "a higher ethical plane"
Every normal human being, not
given ordinarily to early rising, but
being on occasion tempted or forced
into it, has felt the strange spiritual
aff1atus, the moral patting on the back
in consequence thereof. The feeling
that a good deed has been done for
naughty world is inexplicable, but
supreme.
Father Dwight is remorseless. The
early riser is the least intelligent OF
mankind.

This message, it was stated at the

loss, with all hands, of the Hull traw-

which was washed up on Norwegian

The handwriting has been identified
as that of the second engineer, and the

the document to be genuine, said it
would appear that the Angus was lost

The Angus, which was never seen
again after leaving the North sea on

bottle belonged to Messrs. Wheatleys,

GOODYEAR TIRES AT

Tires" Mr.. F. A. Sieberling, president
Of the Company, thus explains their
unique position
I'VE advanced Goodyear prices, as
others did theirs, when the rubber
panic came. Almost in a day crude
rubber rose in New York from So cents
per pound to much over a dollar.
The New York supply was too
small to consider. We cabled our
London people to buy up the pick Of
the rubber there. By acting quickly
and paying cash they obtained 1,500,-
OOO pounds of the finest rubber.
That big supply of rubber is now
nearly ali on the way to the Goodyear
factory in Akron. 1t constitutes the
best Of the London supply.
'We\ are using the same grade of
rubber and the same amount of it as
We always have used in these tires.
we are running our factory with
three shifts of men, twenty-four hours
day So long as we remain in this
fortunate position on rubber, we shall
supply tire users at before-war prices
