Harry Grant Goes Full 500 Miles
Without Stopping for Tire Change
or Trouble Of Any Kind

The winning Of the 500 nile Chica.
60 Derby and the performers of many
of the drivers Is another big victory
for Goodrich Silvertown cable cord
tires. Resta won the $4,000 prize at
an average speed Of 97.6 miles an
hour with his Peugeot equipped with
Silvertowns.
The ten cars which finished were
also equipped with the Goodrich pro-
duct. These were Porporato, Sun
beam; Rickenbacher, Maxwell; Grant
Sunbeam; Earl Cooper, Stutz; An
derson, Stutz; Alley, Deusenberg;
Chevrolet, Delage Burman, Peugeot,
and Joe Cooper, Sebring.
Conditions Ane Ideal
Conditions were ideal, but extraor.
binary time is in large measure at
tributable to the wonderful track and
the use Of Silvertown tires.
Resta made only three tire chang
es during the entire drive of 800 niles
in spite of the terrific strain due to
the high angle of the track at turns
More remarkable still was the record
established by Harry Grant, who
drove Sunbeam the entire 500 miles
without a single stop. This breaks
all nonstop records and affords anoth'
'er proof Of the endurance of Good
rich Silvertown cable cord tires with
which Grants car was equipped.
Previous Record 3o5 Miles
The best nonstop record ever pre-.
viously made was 305 miles. In or.
der to complete his 500 miles with.
out stopping, Grant coasted last half
mile without gasoline. His tires were
still in good condition and IL It bad
been necessary he could have contin
ued on them for many miles.
Contrary to expectations the race
was singularly free from accidents
Owing to speed of track and high
pitch at turns 1t was predicted driv'
ers would have difficulty in staying
on the course, but use of Silvertown
tires which made steering easy kept
accidents from marring the sport.

Drifting SNOW TIES

ern on Time.

Drifting snow, combined with high
winds and slippery rails, played havoc
with train service in the north and far
west Thursday night and this morning.
resulting in the Generalization of east
bound trains on the Northwestern, and
south bound on the NJ. & st. L. AS
usual, the trains from Minneapolis and
Mason City. and the luckless Story
City branch, We're the worst sufferers,
altho the Northwestern had consider
able difficulty in maintaining any kind
Of service with its thru trains.
According to employees of the NJ. &
ST l. their single track road is partic-
ularly difficult to handle in time of
storm because of the fact that the
snow drifts over and covers a single
track much quicker than where a
double track affords wider space.

L., due here at 4:O1 and s:55, re-
spectively, got in this morning at
1920 and II o'clock The Story City
branch train did not leave Story City
at all this morning, and had orders to
stay there until a snow pillow could be
sent up to dig them out Telegraph
wires were not affected by the storm.
The snow pillow had not left here at
10 o'clock. SO the prospects Of getting
train here from Story City today were
not especially favorable. Trains from
the south did not experience much diff
ficulty in making their time, aitilo No.
1O1. from ST. Louis, was an hour late.
Union Pacific Connections Delayed.
The Northwestern trains from the
far west were all several hours late,
due to exceptionally heavy drifts at
Grand Island. Neb.. and other points
on the Union Pacific. According to
several passengers who came from
Oregon and Nevada, the snow was over
six feet deep at Grand Island, and it
took the united efforts of three of the
Union Pacific's biggest locomotives to
pull the trains thru. Nos. 2 and s. the

Why Do Some Things Bend
and Others Break?

1t all depends upon the hanging on
ability. Sometimes in undergoing Diff
ferent processes an article which will
ordinarily only bend will become very
brittle or breakable. A steel wire may
bend but If you make steel wire very
hard it becomes brittle. On the other
hand. glass Is very brittle ordinarily,
but IL you make it very hot, you can
bend 1T into any shape you wish, and
thus the glass-worker makes different
shapes to various dishes; lamp chmi-
neys. bottles. ETC., by heating glass and
then bending it. When 1t becomes cool
again, 1t also becomes brittle or break
able as before.-From the Book Of
Wonders. which answers thousands Of
questions like this, the greatest single
book Of knowledge ever published.

it's The preference in appointment for

interest of the school system. To say
that teacher must suffer the penalty
Of being accounted less worthy because

ton is to strangle healthy competition
among teachers. Inbreeding Is today the
blight of a great many school systems
In this country"
The city of Spokane, Wash, closed its
city training school for teachers some
years ago, DR.. Nanny declares, mainly
for the reason that the school author
tiles were embarrassed by the necessity
of selecting as teachers those trained
in the local institution, even tho they
were inferior to others
Some of the cities that have training
schools Cor teachers have endeavored
to meet the inbreeding problem by linn
iting the number of teachers to be Sc
lected from the local training schools.
Thus Pittsburgh, in opening such
school, made a rule that not more than
81 per cent of the cit; teachers COLD
be drawn from this school. Indianapolis
has for years limited the number OF
teachers training in its own school to
not more than four fffths of the need.
In Burlington, Iowa, every fourth teach
er must come from outside the city.
Newark. n. j.. places the proportion of
experienced teachers from outside
sources at from one-fourth to one
third. Harrisburg. Pa. secures half its
teachers from elsewhere.
Reports from forty three cities, show,
according to DR.. Nanny, that "Balti-f
more, Md. and Paterson, n. j., have
the smallest proportion of teachers
from outside sources: while Newark, n.
j., Cleveland. o., Rochester, n. Y, Bir-
mingham, Ala. and Omaha. Neb., have
the largest percentage of teachers
trained elsewhere"

When an outside force is applied to
some objects, some Of tlem will bend
and others break. 1t is due to the fact
that in some things the particles have
the faculty of sticking together OF
hanging on to each other, and it is very
difficult to break them away from each
other. In such instances, as in the case
of a wire, the article will bend when
we apply the power to and it will
not break. because the particles which
make up the wire have the faculty of
hanging to each other. A piece Of glass
however, can be broken right in two by
the application Of no more force than
was used to bend the wire, because the
particles which make up the glass
