TALKS ON THRIFT
NO. 33.-HOW THE BANK HELPS,

No. 33.-IlON The BANK HELPS.
ut is not often that man can
make opportunities for himself.
But he can put himself in such
shape that when or if the oppor-
tunities come, he is ready to take
advantage of them Theodore
Roosevelt.
Men who make money fast often lose
it as quickly. They run risks and take
chances. They are under a nervous
strain continually and are never sure
just how they are coming out.
In the long run, the gain is greater
if you do not try to get rich quick"
but Systematically save a portion of
your income and regularly deposit it
in reliable bank where it will be
safely at work for you
Ready money burns holes in the
pocket of the man who has it. To make
spare money safe put it into the bank.
Besides being secure there and always
handy to get at when you really need
it, it will not be so easy to get at when
the impulse comes to spend it foolish
ly.
1t is one of the principal functions
of the bank to safeguard the money of
the depositor, and many times it thus
protects money even from the owner
himself
Another way the bank helps is in
educating it's depositors as to the earn
ing power of money. 1t is not the de-
sire of any banker to have public
money lie dormant. Those who deal
/ with banks and study their methods
soon learn that the success of the
banker in setting money at work is
no more than the individual may at
tain proportionally in handling his
own finances through the bank.
] When you deposit in the bank, you
will find many factors of security for
your savings. For one thing, bank
officers and directors are men of dem
onstrated business success. Their
combined or collective" ability, ex-
perience and integrity works for your
benefit when you are a depositor in
the bank.
There are many other advantages of
a banking connection, as you will
learn if your situation is similar to
those outlined in the succeeding para
graphs.
Possibly you have certain fixed pay
ments to make. Most persons have
life insurance premiums to pay at stat
ed times. Many, right after making
one payment, begin to prepare for the
next. Every week or every month a
little money is deposited in the bank
and when the premium again becomes
due, the money is there to meet it
and along with it a little interest.
Some persons have loans on which
interest is due or payments must be
made every year or every six months,
and in order to be sure of meeting
these payments they deposit little
money when the pay envelope comes
in and as the payments became due
the money is on deposit to meet them
Perhaps you have children and are
planning to educate them; perhaps
you wish to take trip to some place
of interest next year; perhaps you
wish to establish a reserve against
loss of work, or old age. There are
many other reasons why you should
start and maintain a savings bank
account. Your own needs or desires
will suggest them to you; but what
ever your needs, whatever your occu-
patton or responsibilities, it is a good
thing to put money into the bank reg
ularly.

MOTORCYCLE USE
is GROWING RAPIDLY

Motorcycle manufacturers generally re-
port an ever increasing demand for ma
chimes in western states; and many Of the
leading factories now look to the west to
take a goodly part Of their annual output
The many and varied practical uses to
which the power driven two wheeler can be
put is largely responsible for the increased
demand, together with the motorcycles
proved ability to cover the ground, and
cover it with dispatch.
There is scarcely a trade, occupation or
profession that isn't well represented now in
the list Of western motorcycle owners-and
additions are being made to the list every
day.
The small towns seemingly are just as
eager for motorcycles as the big ones; and
many places hard to find on the map have
enough owners to boast Of real motorcycle
clubs Boynton' Oklahoma, for instance,
has a number of Yale riders

The Making Of a Motor Tire

Every Tire Consists Of Six Parts

DNEU1IATIC tires have six parts,
fabric, beads, sidewalks, cushion,
a breaker strip and tread, which
enter into the casing's makeup IN inc
order named. After being calendered
the fabric is built into the carcass"
of the tire on a machine devised espe-
ciaIIy for this purpose. On iron cores
patterns as exact as it is possible to
make them, the fabric is stretched IN
til sufficient thicknesses have been
built up. Formerly this work was done
by hand. but IL was impossible to get
the good results the machines give
After few hours the operator would
become tired and be unable to con
tiuue stretching the fabric plies uni
formly- Consequently the work turned
out during the latter part OF the day
often would suffer in quality
The number Of layers of fabric in
tire plays an important part in pro-
longing or shortening its life. One
thickness more or less may make the
greatest difference in the world, when
the finished product is put into COM

MOTORCYCLE Is NOW
UNIVERSALLY ADOPTED
Not Pleasure Vehicle Entirely, But a
Practical transportation Machine
of SIfghf TDkeen COet.

Fifteen years ago the United States
was going through one of the greatest
crazes ever known in the history of
sport. This WIS bicycling. Young and
Old-rich and pOOr-man, woman and
child-seized upon this two wheeled
vehicle as the one predominant ma
chine for amusement and health. The
era of the bicycle was an era of ac-
Quaintance with American out of doors
to millions Of people who otherwise
would have scarcely known the natural
wonders and delights of their country.
This self same era is repeating itself
otday by means of the motorcycle. But
with an undreamed of comfort and
ten fold pleasure.
Gone is. the fatigue of pedaling up
hills and against head Winds-all the
eXertions Of cycling have disappeared
with its motorizatiOn. Likewise, its
qualifications have increased.
The running cost of a motorcycle is
next to nothing per mile. SiXty-five
miles on a gallon Of gasoline. or 500
miles on a gallon of oil, are average
performances. Repair charges are
cOrrespOndinEly low. Official reports
OF the Detroit police motorcycle squad
shows the average cost Of upkeep per
machine to be S2.1S for 5000 miles.
The motorcycle needs no garage and
Requires a minimum or care. It is al
ways ready to take its owner to any
point within a % mile radius within
an hours time.
The fact that must not be overlooked
that the motorcycle has its practical
side-fOr example, as a help to the
student in many of MS cholastic ac-
tivities.
It is always available for immediate
use on observation trips; for making
field surveys at points near by or ut a

SOME TIPS ABOUT
THE SPARK PLUG

Some Suggestions as to It's Correct Adjust
ment Which Should Prove Helpful to
the Owner Of a Car.
Whenever spark plug is to be put into
use, whether It be a new spark plug or an
old one which has been cleaned. the firing
points at the bottom Of the plug should be
set so that there is a gap Of 1-32 degrees be-
tween them. A 10 cent piece forms an ex-
ceIlent gage for this measurement as this
coin is Just about 1872 degrees thick
plug points is to bend over the center stem
OF the plug until 1t is the proper distance
away from the small hook shaped wire or
electrode which projects from the bottom
Of the spark plug body. The center stem
is easier to bend than the side electrode as
the latter is of very hard material

ELECTRIC HORN TAKES

the improved systems Of automobile iIlu-

old-fashioned bulb horn. The electric horn
Is just as commonplace as the foredOor

Suddenly he righted himself and
descended in a series of spiral
manoeuvres.
The actual figure described by
Pegoud in this fight resembled an S
rather than a loop, but the perform
ance was the signal for a series of
others in which not only the loop
the loop" proper, but numerous other
feats, even more daring and spectacu
lar, were executed.
Within a few days Pegoud added to
his aerial repertoire so that it in
cluded four definite and distinct
feats.
The first number on his pro-
gramme has already been described.
The second is the loop the loop"
proper. Sitting on the outside edge
of his machine, Pegoud dives as
usual in order to gain momentum,
tucks the nose of his machine under
him as he does for the upside-down
flying and completes the circle, so
that when he comes to the top OF
the arc he is flying level and right
way once more.
The third contortion might be
called the sideways roll" Falling
vertically head down as before and
turning onto his back, Pegoud
warps his wings to the utmost limits
of the control and rolls over side
ways into an upright position. This
manoeuvre is illustrated in the upper
diagram on this page.
The remaining figure is accom-
plished as follows: Pegoud climbs
steeply upward until his machine
comes to a standstill, provoking a
deliberate tail-slide. The machine
slips backward and then its tail
gradually elevates and swings the

however, it is believed he will resume
his hair-raising work.
But the Frenchmen have not a
monopoly on this class of work BY
any means.
In England, B. C. Hucks quickly
demonstrated thatAupside-down flying
was by no means a national ,eccen-
tricity. At the Hendon Aerodrome.
in the suburbs of London, Mr.. Hucks
executed six "loop-the-loops" in sue
cession. @
American aviators have caught the
habit, too. Lincoln Beachey,5 one of
the most daring aviators SO far pro-
duced, has been doing some remark
able work at North Island, California.
On one occasion he assembled to an
elevation of $500 feet and then
turned the front of his machine
downward. At about 1000 feet he
brought the machine up with
swoop and a moment later was fly
ing head downward. He completed
the loop at 300-feet altitude and
then went directly into the vertical
again, in which position he turnstl
his machine around twice on ies
own axis.
The remarkable feature about al
these exploits is that in almost eyats
case regular stock aeroplanes were
used without any important changes
being made in them. w

A N aviator VINO cannot fly

regarded these days.
Within the past few months pro-
fessional air-pilots have demon
strated that no manoeuvre is too
difficult for the skilled aviator to
execute, although most of the feats
performed have. been of the hair
raising order as far as the spectat-
ors were concerned.
Recent aerial exhibitions have re-
vealed, too, what splendid spectacular
possibilities lie in the Illuminated
aeroplane. Outlined with electric
lights, aeroplanes have been used in
England at night and have produced
most beautiful effects, rivalling the
most elaborate of pyrotechnic dis
plays of former days.
But the aviators' exploits of
daring have aroused the most inter-
est. Alphonse Pegoud, the daring
French aviator, started the ball
rolling last September He had
previously shown his intrepid
courage by leaving his aeroplane at
a great altitude and descending in
a parachute. But that was not
enough. He wanted to do the loop

At Juvissy he performed this mar

to descend at lightning speed. Then
