Murley, one Of the school boys OF the

Mrs. William Klopp, Of Richmond
Mrs. Klopp brought her cooker with
her, and produced a cake, baked beans
baked chicken and apple sauce, done

ity of the cooker, and emphasized the
advantage In not summer weather, OF
being about to get the meals, without
having to stand over a hot stove. The
ladies' had been invited to bring plates
and spoons, and were allowed to sam
pie the viands set forth.
These women have come to look for

similar clubs, for they feel that club
life is no longer luxury to be enjoyed
only by the women Of town and city
but a necessity of the busy farm wo

word: that she may bring up better

she may have the recreation and so

TO GUARD AGAINST

When you are on the road, even IL
You do have demountable rims, always
carry an extra inner tube, an inside
blowout patch, and an outside pros
tector and you will be enabled to get
to your destination, no matter what
happens in tire disaster. II the blow
out is not a severe one. the inside
patch will suffice, but IL big hole
Is left 1t will be wise to use the inside
and the outside patches, thus making
doubly sure that the tube will be held
inside the casing.
1t Is wise preeaution to use the
outside protector when a casing re-
ceives a bad cut in the tread, although
the fabric has not been damaged. To
leave a cut unprotected and continue
to drive mile after mile means that the
cut will be aggravated and the fabric
will be injured by water and dirt. Be-
Sides sand will creep in between the
tread and the fabric, thus loosening
the former and causing more trouble
andNfaster dissolution of the tire.
When the protector has been used
and home Is reached the cut should be
Immediately cleaned out and some form
of tire dough inserted. so as to heal
the wound and form a protection
against water and dirt reaching the
fabric. A little attention at this time
will more than bear out the old saying
that stitch in time saves nine"

SOLID TIRES FOR
. COYERNME|I IT CARS
The Mexican Rebels Have
Discarded Pneumatics On
Their War Trucks.

A Few months ago General Blanco of
the Mexican rebels narrowly escaped
death while driving his automobile
overland from Ensenadh to Matamoros
by the way of Capata when attacked
by the federais. That he was not
killed by flying bullets was considered
little short of a miracle as the body of
the car was literally tiddled and all
four pneumatic tires, which were 33x4
Firestone non -skid were punctured by
bullets. The vital organs of the car
were not damaged, no viewer, and the
tires were quickly repaired by the
Corpus Christi Tire q Rubber com
pany Of Corpus Christi, and Blanco still
enjoys an occasional Joy ride in his
warproof car.
A short time afterWard an article
pertaining TO this scrrhmage came to
the attention of Captain Alfred Aloe,
depot quartermaster Of the United
States army at Galveston, and he was
deeply impressed, as the automobiles
in the service of the army are main
tanned under his supet vision. He at
once got in touch with the Houston
office, inquiring as to the length of
time necessary to change the tires on
tHe iuchs TO soilu qulck- removable
tires. Captain Aloe stated he would
possibly be called upon to go with the
trucks into Mexico about the first of
the week. and he W hs taking no
chances OF flying BULLETS putting the
tires out of eommission The Firestone
company Immediately got busy and
shipped solid tires applied to quick
removable rims to Me Bohn & Son,
Galveston, with instruf tions to apply
them on the truck at once, working all
night If necessary.
With the Firestone solid tire and rim
equipment nearly as Quick change
can be made as with a pneumatic tire

STREAML|NES THE
RAGE IN AUTOLAND
Beauty as Well as Power and
Speed Wanted by Modern
Motor Car Owner.

The call for more speed for less
power In the automobile w0rld has set
manufacturers to work on q new prob
lem and a new ideal to strive for
that of stream lines. To build a car
that will appear symmetrical and lux
urious in general shape and yet will
offer less surface to wind pressure is
fast becoming the overshadowing am
bition of the auto expert.
Not long ago the public generally
knew not even the meaning Of the ex-
preston stream lines. A few scient-
lists and boatmen knew the meaning
| and the full import of the expression,
/, but to others 1t meant nothing. The
knowledge of what air pressure means
In holding down the speed of any NOV
Ing thing is beginning to have great
| influence wherever automobiles are
bought or sold.
| The horse drawn vehicle needed not
this refinement because of their slow
er speeds and because, being preceded

| opposed to the air
! The automobile, like the boat, saves
much power by being built with the
matter Of air resistance fully consid-
cred. In this, as in everything else,
that which isfright looks right, so the
| refinement added in this direction has
resulted in material added beauty.
Corners Rounded OFF.

more common. Even where the ra-
dating portion still is flat. the tanks

which add an advantageous result as

appearance.
Hoods taper from the front to larg-
er dash and cowl and offer no joints for

surface presents less opportunity for
water to enter on a rainy day and that
the more boat-like the body the better
it protects the mechanism from the
elements.
The once simple dash, consisting of
a vertical or partition, has been nearly

of cases the doors that join this front

NOVEL REPORT FROM
AN AUTO SALESMAN

The travelling representative of a big
automobile concern must be, by the
very nature of his calling. more or less
OF a humorist and altogether a phil
osopher. The possession of these as
sets Is fundamental necessity, 1t Is
said, because OF the thousand and one
hitherto unheard-of conditions he
meets with in his daily work. The
WHY'S Overland company of Toledo.
o., makers of the Overland car, have
one travelling representative In whom
these attributes are developed to a re-
markable degree, as shown in the fol-
lowing excerpts taken from one of his
regular reports, written while journey
Ing through the province of Santo Do
mingo on the island of Haiti, West In
dies.
This is not an especially attractive
country for automobile salesmen in
spite OF the fact that the people have
plenty of money and are anxious to
enjoy the delights of the gasoline We
Fhicle," runs the report. The whole
province has but 20 miles of roads
which are at all available for automo-
bile traffic and these highways are lit
There is a garage owner-the only one
In the whole province--who Is anxious
to do some missionary roadwork before
he can be called a successful distribu-
tor.
HE has five cars now, all old and
very much patched second handlers.
While his cars give him plenty of
trouble, he has plenty of time to keep
them in repair, for because of the
scarcity of highways and the narrow
ness of those that do exist he can only
have one car out at a time. He can't
operate them all at once. for they would
run into or over each other: However,
a highway improvement campaign has
already been launched and I expect to
soon see ashny Overlands running here
as there are In other out-of-the- way
parts of the world"

sons plucky performance in the Max
well.
Never before in the history OF Amer
lean road and track events has a car
built by COMPANY manufacturing
large quantities OF fow-priced cars fin /
ished so far to tie front in race Of
this kind. Chief among the charges
made by foreign manufacturers and
racing drivers for the past 10 years
has been the inability of American
makers to turn out cars OF endurance.
You can build cars low In price and
in great quantities, but they won't
stand the gaff," has been the claim of
the European makers. The perform
ance of the Maxwell IS last Saturday
has forever settled all controversy as
to the stability OF the homegrown
product.
Starting with the elimination trials,
In which the Maxwell set new record
for lap on the speedway, the Max

the fact that the American car of low
price has the stamina to survive the
most gruelling test

the fact that while the foreign cars

resent the most expensive cars in Eu-
rope, the two American winners repre-
sent the medium and low priced

BIG increase in
. BUICK SHIPMENTS
The Export Business Is
Now Constantly On the
Increase.

The extent to which the entire world
Is becoming motorized is indicated by
the foreign shipping records of our
large automobile factories. The fact
that motor cars are being bought in
such countries as South Africa, The
Indies, China India and others of the
more undeveloped monarchies and re-
publics is interesting in itself, but the
fact that American built cars are every
year nosing out their foreign COMPETE
tors seems peculiarly significant. The
explanation lies in part In the roads.
French and English cars are built for
boulevard use. The American car is
built for American road use. And when
you generalize on American roads, you
have covered a multitude of sins. 1t
naturally follows that If foreign manu-
facturers know more about how to
build good cars for good road use, it is
not unfair to suppose that American
manufacturers know more about build
ing good cars for bad road use.
Export Business Big
Buick export business has doubled
itself five times in the last three years
and the distribution is now extending
all over the world. Capetown, East
London, johannesburg, and other cities
in South Africa are getting good sized
deliveries. In India. Calcutta and the
Island Of Ceylon are the principal re-
ceiving ports, as Shanghai Is in China.
In the city of Rangoon, Island OF Bur-
ma, the motor car is becoming more
and more popular. Notwithstanding
that 1t was only a comparatively few
years ago that the automobile was re-
garded with almost heather supersti-
ton.
