F|RESTONES MAKE fine
SHOWING At CORONA

When Barney Odlfield established
the new worlds nonstop record at
Corona Thanksgiving Day he also set
a mark for tire efficiency that perhaps
never has been equalled.
Oldfield's car was equipped with
Firestone tires, but one of the four that
established the perfect score had seen
700 miles of service on the desert and
mountain roads in PREPARATION for the
Los Angeles Phoenix race.
Barney decided to enter the Corona
event almost ut the last minute, and
previously had given the subject of
tires no thought. He telephOned the
manager of the Firestone Tire and
Rubber Company and asked for equip
ment for his Maxwell racer He asked
for 35x5 inch tires, the size he was ac-
eustomed to use, and was surprised to
learn he could not be supplied.
He asked for the next size, 34x4 Y,
and was told there We're only eight tires
of that sizes that could be obtained
Then it was he made up his mind to
took over his stock at home. and de-
cided the used tire as one of the four
he would start with At the finish it
looked no worse for wear than the
others
The four cars in the race that were
equipped with Firestone tires covered
| 3S5 laps, with only three changes.

LIFE is LITTLE
British Captain Died as He Had Nd
uised Others to Die

DUBLIN, Dec Sat a memorial
service held at Blasslough, County
Monaghan, for the late Captain Nor
man Leslie of the Rifle brigade, the
primate of Ireland who delivered a
brief address, read the following eX-
tract from a letter written by the
gallant officer to a friend:
Try not to worry too much about
the war, any way Units, individuals,
cannot count Remember. we are
writing a new page Of history. Flu
ture generations cannot be allowed to
read of the decline of the British
empire and attribute it to us.
I'VE live our little lives and die.
To some are given chances of prov
ing themselves men and to others no
chance comes. Whatever our indi-
vidual faults, virtues or qualities may
be- it matters not, but when we are
up against big things, let us forget
individuals and let US act as one
great British unit, united and fear
less.
Some will live and many will die
but count the loss nought. 1t is bet
ter far to go out with honor than
service with shame"

PRISON SUNDAY
Local Pastors to Deliver Ser
mons on Life Behind Bars
PLAN Was Originated
Thirty Years Ago.

The attention OF South Bend pas
tors has been called 10 Prison Sunday,
the last Sunday in October. which
has been set aside as the dag for ser
mons and lectures on prison reform.
1t is probable that practically all OF
the South Bend ministers VIII use
prison reform OF some Of its phases
for their subjects on this Sunday as
the state board OF charities is making
"a determined effort TO get the topic
before the Indiana public.
The plan Of setting aside one sun
day each year as Prison Sunday orig
mated at a meeting OF about 10
clergymen in New y Ork city some 80
years ago. They met 10 discuss how
the subject Of interesting the people
in prison reform and the care anC
treatment OF criminals. A resolution
was passed asking ministers TO OBJ
serve Prison Sunday throughout the
country and the movement was later
endorsed by the National Conference
OF Associated Charities and Correc-
ton and the American Prison assO-
citation. Since that time the move
ment has grown under national direc-
ton until il is observed in every state
in the Union.
Pamphlets have been issued by the
Indiana State Board OF Charities from
year TO year which are designed TO
assist ministers and lecturers in pre-
pairing their Prison Sunday sermons
and addresses. The inmates of the
Indiana reformatory printed the
pamphlets this year and these are
now ready for distribution through
out the state.
Articles on THE Relation Between
Crime and Mental Defect, The
Treatment OF Misdemeanant" The
State Penal Farm. THE Indetermi-
nate Sentence, Adult PIooation',
are included in the pamphlets. De-
marchus G. Brown, chairman Of the
state board of charities committee on
penal and reform institutions. has
contributed an article on the bearing
OF Indiana legislation of recent years
on public institutions and charities in
the state.
Chaplain Also Contributes.
Others who have contributed to the
Indiana pamphlet are Rev o. l..
Kiplinger. chaplain of the Indiana
state prison; Or. s. +. Smith, chair
man of the Indiana state farm COM
mission; Joseph =. Byers, secretary of
the American Prison association;
Prof. r. b. Won Kleinsmid, former as
sociate superintendent of the Indiana
reformatory, and Amos w. Butler

ties.
Statistics relative to the population
and expenses of the state penal insti-
tutiOns and admissions TO the various
county JGils are contained in the book

ment is to spread information, to
create a better understanding Of the
cause Of crime and TO bring about an
intelligent interest in and cOopeTa-
ton with the work that is being done
in indiana for the prevention Of
crime and the reformation Of crimi-
