Hints Worth While
For Car OWners

When installing tire chains it is not
advisable TO have them too tight If
the chains are held in a fixed position
the tread OF the tire is apt to be loos-
ened at these points If the chain Is
slightly loose It will work around to
different positions and cause less in
jury TO the tread
When making motor adjustments It Is
usually necessary to exercise a little
patience in order to get the best results.
for the reason that the effects Of ad-
justments are not always instantly ap-
parent In carburetor adjustments. for
instance, the motor must be given lit
tile time feel the changes made. and
the results obtained Immediately fol-
lowing the turn Of a needle value or an
air valve spring may be misleading.

1T is for the sake of women themselves that
believe suffrage should be fought for and won
state by state" says Miss Monroe.
"If 1t comes by federal amendment, women
in many of the states in the south and middle
west will not know what it means or what to, do
with it, They still pretty apathetic there
But women who have won suffrage without
a press from legislatures that use every means
to block them, have had their civic consciousness
awakened and their civic abilities trained as moth
ing else could do it. And when they have got
suffrage, they organized and ready to go ahead
and put through the other measures they have
found out should be put through.
'"They know what they want and how to get It,
'In New York, where they have been fighting
so long and hard the women are wonderful
They can meet any politician on his own ground
They know politics no woman not so trained can
know them.
1.-THE taste of politics is like the taste of blood
Women who have thrown themselves into a
cause will never drop back into indifference to
what is going on in their country.
II would like nothing better, If j could posi-
bly, take the time from my own work, than to
throw myself into the campaign for Wilson.
1.-THE big thing in suffrage is not what it will
do for the country, but what 1t will do for women;
and it will do more for them If they have to fight
for It state by state than IL it comes more
easily"

amendment. She is friend of Alice Paul, and has
been asked to go to Colorado Springs and speak
for the Womans Party there, but has declined
"The national way is the only right way, both
theoretically and practically" she says.
"The nation is outgrowing the old states rights
idea, and learning to look at things from national
viewpoint. The interstate commerce commission
and other national boards are an instance of this
growth.
Woman suffrage, the question of the citizenship
of half the population of the United States, is
thing that all parts of the country 1t is
not reasonable to leave it to the decision of ind-
vdual states
And the practical side, take my own case,
for instance. l had the rights of citizen in this
state. went to New York and was no longer a
citizen. l had rights. 1t is ridiculous
I'm some states, If suffrage amendment is de-
feated it cannot be taken up again for five ten
years. In those states it is practically impossible
to get suffrage except by federal amendment.
THE national way is in keeping with the larger
national vision which is here in many things, and
which will by and by develop into international
vision.
"As to the action of the Womans Party In
opposing WILSON, believe i'm almost any club
that will force congress into doing what Ii
ought to do; but my own feeling and cOnvic-
lions are strongly for Wilson that would
not allow myself to be pledged to oppose him.
And anyway, think stand ust good
chance of getting suffrage through Wilson as
through Hughes"

YOUNGER BROTHER IS

penitentiary not less than three

This is their fate, handed out

Life Behind Bars.
Cecil has spent the best part
of his young life behind prison
bars. Last fall, after he had
been arrested for entering the
Tacoma home of his uncle at the
point of gum, he gave his

good advice, to his mothers lit

promised to get work and make
living. Instead he idled away
his days and prowled about the
country at night.

CLAIM TO HAVE MEN


CHICAGO, Aug. Nv. 3.
Storey, Santa Fe operating de-
partment chief, told the United
Press today that some western
railroads are prepared to con-
tinue all trains in the event of
strike.
They have hundreds of nom
union men ready OF begin work,
he said.
Passenger Traffic Manager
Port of the Union Pacific said 80
per cent of their trainmen had
signed the petition asking cou-
gress to prevent the strike. 1t is
conservatively estimated a strike
would make half a million men
jobless here.
The Rock Island Officers an
nounce the road has not planned
to operate trains unless the gov
ernment will promise protection.
Chicago railroad men claiming
to have information, today as
serted the strike would not reach
the walkout stage.
They predicted the brother
hoods would finally agree to let
the interstate commerce commits
sion settle the argument, and de-
clared the government might in
terfere to prevent tie-up of the
Rock Isla and other lines under
receivership.
The Burlington is planning 10
ask some of its former engineers

when society must be protected
by furnishing the offender. Society
must be protected by reforming
those who break its laws.
Long Criminal Career.
But Judge Card declared the
boy had been given every possible
chance, and must suffer the full
penalty.
Cecil began his criminal career
in Tacoma in 1903, when he
served two years for burglary.
At the end of his term he went
to California. In 1905 he pleaded
guilty to burglary there and was
sentenced to four years in prison.
In 1909 he got out and was again
convicted of burglary and SEN
fenced to 15 years.
In 1915 he got out of Folsom
prison on parole. He came to Ia
coma and Immediately was arrest
ed for burglary. In addition to
these offenses he has served
time for petty larcenies.
This was Earl's first convic-
ton.

WASHINGTON, ID. c.,
Aug. 14.-President Wilson
today met representatives of
the four railroad brother
hoods. The conference last
ed 30 minutes. The train
men left the White House at
noon, smiling broadly.
A. B. Garrettson, of the conduc-
tors brotherhood, said: "Nego-
tiations are entirely in the presi-
dents hands"
Warren Stone, of the engineers,
announced, Il am optimistic.

serted: 1T looks the best it has
yet"
The employees are scheduled to
see the president again this after
non after his conference with the
railway managers at 3 o'clock.
He will spend the intervening
time studying the stenographic
report of the mornings proceed
ings, and formulating proposals
to make to the managers.
1t is reported the employees con-
sented to accept arbitration pro-
vided the railroads withdraw
THAR counter proposals. After
the trainmen had departed FEEDER
al Mediator Chambers again con-
ferred with the president.
Railway managers are pessimis-
tic. One prominent manager
said:
I'VE have no reason to change
our attitude. The men have re-
fused to do anything. We are
ready for a strike, but no two
railroad managers agree on what
course to pursue. Some favor put
ting white lead on their engines
and storing them. It's question
whether we are sufficiently ready
to prevent business paralysis.

Golf is the finishing school sor

"old mans game" because you're
an old man before you're able to
make a decent score.
Golf has broken up more homes

chance for the father or husband
getting back home, but with golf
there amt no such thing.
Golf is the simplest and easiest
game in the world. The simplest
part is missing the ball; and the
easiest part is losing the ball.
IL you've never played a game
of golf and would like to find out
