MOTOR TRUCK trade
ALSO IS PROSPEROUS
Years Business Also Shows
Progress in Truck Line
Production

"While so many nice things are
being said about the progress and
prosperity OF the automobile industry,
some public attention ought also be
directed to the growth and progress
Of the motor truck industry" declares
G. W. Martin, Jr Sales Manager Motor
Truck Tire Department, The Goodyear
Tire and Rubber Company.
And there has been progress in
truck tires. too. Tires are such
vital element OF truck service that
their every development Is worthy OF
careful note. In this connection II is
interesting to show how Goodyear's
S-V Truck Tire. in less than two years,
has taken a leading position. Even
we have been pleased and astonished
by the mileage records achieved by the
comparati~e tests that accompanied
our free offer. and the demand for S-V
Tires Is growing at a rate that has
caused careful consideration OF our
factory production for 1916.
"One Of our problems, in backing up
the S-V iixed-On tire for trucks, was
TO insure service, for applying these
tires, etc. And service meant presses,
h'HAhtN bhntI AhlnkNs NoWs AOI lht
great multitude of truck owners who
want the pressed-on tire, we have in
stalled presses at all of our branches
and in other cities at strategic points,
az well. And we are assured OF
phenomenal business. Our position in
presenting the S-V tire is simple. We
guarantee lowest cost per mile and We
Invite comparative tests With any
other make OF tire on the market, ir-
respective Of shape, height, tread form,
etc.
1--WE have also a tire similar to the
S-V in all respects except that It Is
demountable. We guarantee il, Just
as we do the S-V against any other
make Of demouutable tire on the
market
In the past there have been many
efforts by tire manufacturers to do
their part OF developing the truck in
dustry by evolving practical. sturdy,
long-wearing tire. with the other
qualities necessary to aid motor
trucks to do their work we'll under a
variety OF conditions.
"In the S-V We are confident that
we have now the nearest perfect truck
tire. And our judgment is confirmed
by the fine records our tires have
made

PETTIcoATs A LA MoDE.-

pETTICOATS Of muslin are back
 again in the feminine wardrobe after an enforced retirement of several seasons duration. They are shaped somewhat differently from their pred ecessors, having been influenced by the changing lines in outer apparel
 Some of the new models incline to close fitting hip lines and a f1aring dounce.
 There are others that are only mod erately wide through the hem. One reason advanced for the maintenance of the comparatively narrow. petticoat is that with the revival of the very wide outer skirt. particularly as advo- cated for dance purposes, the need for the cIinging foundation skirt is at once apparent.
 Lingerie makers In Paris have not been seriously disturbed by the war Naturally this work is done by women and the greater trouble has been to get it transported to this country.

nNE of the most acceptable of the
 latest inventions for the home is a sanitary underground garbage re- ceiver in which the garbage can be cremated if one so desires. It's price is within the reach of almost every householder, and it solves the garbage can problem in every particular.
 It's simplicity is at once it's attraction and it's value. Buried underground with only it's hood in view) at a con- venient distance from the kitchen door it is not only accessible but sealed against intrusion by mice or flies and the throwing off of odors. The inner can is incIosed in an outer one of six ten gauge American ingot iron that will not rust in the ground. and the combination of the two cans renders ii a freezing proof receiver.
 The dome hood top Is cast iron made in a single casting. readily removed by the collector. It is fitted with an au- fomatic hopper that closes when not in use and easily opened with the foot.

 Of course one must include the all flower hat Spring could not possibly be ushered in without the assistance of the flower turban- It offers a direct change from the hat of fur and velvet with which my lady has crowned her costume during the past three or four months. and as in past seasons to the number of four or five. Red is much In evidence in these hats.
 Cerise geranium, American Beauty, petunia and flame color are all included in the gay and festive scale of red. And with the red tones are shown cer- tain Of the purple nuances. The latter are very rich and elegant and consort well with the early spring costume of navy, putty color or dark brown, also it may be effectively worn with a white tailored costume. #
 But enough about hats. The gown next shown Is of covert cloth, cloth which is having an unprecedented popularity. and, of course. the gowns cannot escape the military tendency. so this one is cut along semimilitary lines. The skirt Is moderately daring. which seems to be the tendency of military dresses. and the coat has a unique style feature in the high placed belt.
 Next is shown a nifty little afternoon gown of sand colored silk gabardine.

solutely the same lines year after year.
 How different 1t is with woman. One year her skirts are so tight she can hardly walk in them: the next they have gone to the extreme Of fuIlness. Tn headgear there is a yer1table riot of change. Broad hats and marrow hats, high hats and low hats, hats with foliage or plunes and hats without either follow in quick succession Men say the purpose of this change is to at tract their attention. It is a doubtful question whether our critic or any other man is able to draw the fine line that separates the ornamental from the purely useful. either in woman's dress or in his own. May there not be some of the peacock in us all?
 But if woman is thinking only of attracting attention to herself the de- mure little Qua.keress has the best of us all in this riot of change and of color. Why not place some of the blame for the fast and furious changes in wonan's dress upon the manufac- turers of feminine garments, who find fl exceedingly profitable to turn out new styles with every change of season2

EHEW women walk correctly. There
 are many reasons for this, but the two most conspicuous are care1essness in holding out the chest and the habit of walking with toes turned out Little girls have always been taught
 that it was the height of inelegance to turn their toes in; that to turn the toes daintily outward was the only proper
 way for ladies to walk.
 Physical cufturists now tell us that the foot straight forward in walking is the only correct position, the only one that will put the pressure where it should be--that iss across the front of the foot, including the great toe, along the outer border of the foot. the little toe side and the heel. Place your feet in this position You
 find there is no weight or strain on the inner side of the foot where the arch is highest and that the foot has perfect freedom and elasticity of action. Now turn the toe out and let the weight fall on the inside of the foot:
 that is where the arch is highest, The result is not only strain on the
 arch, but a bulgtng out of the ankles and a strain at the knees. all of which would indicate that this position is a strain on the muscles and fragments of
 the foot and ankles.
 Savage races that walk with bare feet or merely protection like moe casins walk with the feet pointing straight forward or turning trif1e to-
 ward each other.
 Professional fencers and boxers al-
 ways keep the feet parallel or turned inward.
 This is undoubtedly the strong po-
 sition of the foot.
 Dancers point the toes outward, but they also make their movements out ward in the direction that the line of the foot indicates
 Moreover. the good effect that danc- ing has on the feet is undoubtedly due to it's strengthening of the arch by the
 constant up and down movements of the toes.
 This is to be recommended to any i one suffering from weak arches. The prevalence of broken arches and

Women have cultivated in hniteIy better taste in that direction than was possessed by them few seasons ago. Meaningless punches Of feathers. masses of foolish flowers and grotesque loops of ribbon have very generally disappeared. This has been somewhat hard on dealers in such mer- chandise, many of whom in the course of the past few years have been put in a state Of bankruptcy through the ar tistic education of women in sartorial matters.

4THE Golden Rnle seems rather out of
 dateI In it's place we find a creed which runs somewhat as follows: Do unto others as they do unto you.'' This is far nearer the general rule than the nobler creed. The average woman and most men seemsto prefer an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth to return ing love for hate. Yet if they reaI- ized how much more practical it is to follow the latter course perhaps this ever present spirit Of paying people back in their own coin" would die a natural death.
 .ePractfcaI?p you may question. granting that 1t may be the finer course to follow, but failing to see its prac- ticality. Yet practical is just the word to 1t this case, for you are the one who Benefits by following the path of the who suffers most when you pursue thoughts of vengeance. Paying person baclzI How often we hear the phrasei The business man who has been oyerridden by a rival longs for the opportunity of paying him back.

SOME one has said that the only rea- son women have for changing styles so often is that they may at

Any woman who will lift her hands above her head and hold in them some small object like a vase, letting hands and object rest upon her head, and who will then walk for ha1f an hour in her room every morning in that pohition will acquire the essential grace to wear a dress properIy-that is. if she has also got dress which is harmonious with her.
