THE BATTLE Of
! THE TIRES

Agricultural and Commercial Press Servicel
It is interesting to watch the forces
Of civilization battling for supremacy.
The struggle 10Y going on between the
rubber and the iron tire promises to
be the liveliest contest Of the TWEEN.
tieth Century.
The struggle is a silent n and
there are no war correspondents to
write vivid descriptions of the con.
dict but the results are more far.
reaching to present and future gen.
erations than the war Of Europe.
The rubber tire has been
ing for point Of attack for several
years and has captured a few unim'
portant positions in traffic, but it has
now pitched a decisive battle with
It's iron competitor by hurting a mil.
lion "jitneys" at the street railways
and the battle is raging from ocean
to ocean. Upon the result Of the
struggle depends the future Of the
rubber tire. If it is compelled to re.
treat, its doom is sealed, but If 1t wins
the battle it will revolutionize the
transportation methods of this nation.
If the rubber tire conquers the
street traffic it's next struggle is with
the railroads of the country, and then
the greatest battle between economic
forces ever fought out on the face
Of this earth is on, for iron is the I'M
disputed master in transportation, and
Ia fortified behind billions of dollars,
and millions of men.
Stephenson applied the steel tire
to an iron rail in 1914, but it was 1869
before the golden spike was driven
at ~PromOntory Point, which bound
the country together with bands of
steel. 1t took the iron tire tifty-five
years to creep from ocean to ocean.
but the rubber tire while warm from
the creative mind Of the inventive
genius sped across the continent like
an arrow shot from the bow Of Ulys.
ses. The roadbed was already pre-.
pared and therein lies the power Of
the rubber tire over that of iron, for
government builds and maintains the
public highway.
But iron is a stubborn metal and
It has mastered every wheel that
turns; has fought battles with every
element above and beneath the earth
and has eve tasted the wormwood
Of defeat, and when rubber hurls it's
FULL force against this monarch OF
the Mineral Kingdom, it may rebound
to the factory stunned beyond recov'
cry.
The rubber tire first made it's ap'
pearance on the bicycle, but it proved
a frivolous servant and was dismissed
for incompetency. 1t has always been
too much inclined to revel in luxury
to be taken seriously as a utility ma.
chine and it's reputation is not one to
inspire confidence in heavy traffic
performance.
But to those who care to watt into
dreamland, it is enchanting to note
that there will be a marvellous differ
ence between a rubber and an iron
age. The rubber tire will scatter the
cities throughout the valleys for with
transportation at every mans door,
why a city? It will traverse the con.
tinent with a net work Of Macadam
highways as beautiful as the boule
ward built by Napoleon. 1t will par
alyze the law making bodies of this
nation for how could the legislatures

Care Should Be Exercised Not to Over.
heat the Steel.
A correspondent of Blacksmith and
Wheelwright gives the following meth.
Cd for tempering chisels. drills and
other stone cutting tools:
Do not force your fire while sharp
ening and making these tools. Let the
steel heat slow. taking great care not
to heat it over a good red heat, for II
q white heat is reached in making q
sharpening your steel is spoiled and
will not stand. Here Is where the
trouble generally lies.
After the tools are sharpened lay
them aside to cool for a few minutes.
Now have lukewarm soft water with
about two pounds Of salt to two gal
Ions Of water. Next take one tool at
a time and place the edge in the fire
and heat about three-eighths of an
inch Of the edge just to a cherry heat
and plunge in the water. cooling
enough so that the temper will not
run down. But remove from the wa.
ter before it quits Kissing and lay
aside and let 1t cool.
This is the right temper, but you
must take pains at first until you be-
come accustomed to it. If you should
get them too hard at first do not heat
quite so hot next time. The degree OF
success depends upon getting the
right heat. You will have no water
cracks in the steel with this way OF
temperine

Britain's house of lords has now and

It the chamber Of horrors" and the

Chesterfield spoke of it as that hos

Palisade Students
At Englewood Highs
Dramatic Evening

Don't forget the one-act farces
which are to be given tonight at
Liberty Auditorium, Englewood, I'M
der the auspices of the Omega Rho
Alpha Society and the Pickwick Club,
of Englewood High School. There
are three Hilltop boys in the casts
of the two plays, which should cause
added interest among Palisadians.
In the first play, "a Proposal
Under Difficulties" which commences
promptly at p. M, Randolph Brown,
of Palisade, visits the house of his
young lady friend with the purpose
of proposing to her. Instead, he I'M
consciously proposes to the maid, at
which juncture his rival-Well the
best way is to come and see for your
self exactly what happens.
In the second farce, the audience
will have the pleasure of seeing Este
Flagge, one of Palisades pudding
youths" play part which rivals the
famous Raffles, the gentleman burglar.
"My Lord in Livery" is the title of
the sketch, and it is none other than
Robert Blue, of Edgewater Heights,
who furnishes the livery to "My
Lord" Este Flagge.
There will be dancing after the last
play, and a general good time is eX-
pected. The admission will be twenty

White made a most agreeable impress
sion as he always does, and was
warmly greeted.
Taking the entertainment or cele
bration as a whole, it was the most
elaborate, perhaps, so far as prepara-
tions were concerned, of anything
ever undertaken here, unless the dedi
cation of the school be excepted, which
was the premier affair of the towns
entire history. However, there were
many features of this latest affair
that were not possible at school
dedication. The decorations were by
Mr.. Logan, and caused many pleasant
comments. The stage was draped in
flags and Southern smilax, with large
vases of carnations, lilacs, jonquils,
snapdragons, smilax, etc. The feath-
cry green in the many vases were
sprigs of fresh spring buildings from
wild cherry, elms, shrubs, ETC., the eff
feet being very artistic.
The general comment on the cele-
bration was that it was charming
success. The extreme length of the
program could not well be avoided,
but even that was forgotten in the
enjoyment of the many fine things
that were run off. Perhaps the
greatest single factor to the evenings
enjoyment was the fine work of
Arthur Carson. He is one of the
finest entertainers in the country, and
as master of ceremonies on this oc-
casion he fairly sparkled, his happy
little speeches punctuating everything
on which he talked. His introduction
of little Eleanor Pencils part in the
program was an ingenious thought,
and carried out in most effective
fashion. 1t could not have been bet
tered. The thanks of the community
are due to Mr.. Carson for his fine
work, and it is to be greatly regretted
that he announced this as his last APP
pearance in a similar capacity.
Walter D. Lennon also made pleas
ant little talk, telling how he came
suddenly upon Palisade, and then ex-
claimed, "Alabama-here we rest"
He said there was no place like Pail
SADIE, and he was happy only when he
got back home from his long travels
and found rest in Palisade.

and members of the Noble Ten"
salute you, on this happy occasion,
and heartily regret my inability to be
with you, personally, but l am with
you in spirit, and methinks l can
hear the vocal fireworks being shot
off by the boys, including that Canny
Scotcher, John Hunter. Please say
that l too am shouting hurrahs, and
that 81 snap my fingers at foe
mans taunts." Please extend to the
vocal society my regrets that on their
first appearance on the firing line,
that l had to desert my post as their
leader; that l am lying in the trench
with the Pipp, but that l have every
confidence in my colleague and am
sure that, under his baton they will
do themselves credit. sincerely hope
that Palisade has entered on second
ten years lap of prosperity and to con-
firm that hope, extend a hand shake
to all the boys, but to all the ladies
present l watt them from my trench
spirituelle kiss.
Yours very truly,

ELEANOR PENNEL'S
ENTRANCE POEM

Greetings, good neighbor, from this
little maid
Pm the very first baby of Palisade,-
Twas really quite lonesome at first
for me,
But I've got lots of company now,
you see;
The grown-ups, of course, we couldn't
do without
You've always got to have some of
them about
But if you're starting up town,
there's no use to begin it
If you're not going to put some little
folks in it.
Cause some day, you know, come
gains or come losses
It'll be our turn and we'll be the
bosses.
