Tire users do not generally realize
the purpose of flaps and the influence
of same in relation to tire service.
1t is not customary to use flaps
with clincher tires, not because ii is
unnecessary, but because of the diff
Guilty in using flap and stretching
the tire on the rim so that 1t will
fit properly, The beads of this type
of tire are stretchable and are made
approximately inch less in diameter
of rim, the object being to cause the
tire to fit snugly to rim, after APP
piled.
Several years ago it was practise
to use rims strips-a strip of fabric
stretched tightly on rim. These strips
caused the beads to fit very snugly
to clinches of rim and protected the
tube from rust and other damage.
This was discontinued some time
ago, and while 1t is not necessary to
use flaps with clincher tires of small
size, it is really the proper thing to
do with this type in sizes above 4
inch, unless clips or spreaders are
used to hold the beads tightly in
clinches or RIM so that inner tubes
will not be pinched or damaged. The
beads of Quick Detachable Clincher
cases and cables of Straight Side
cases are non-stretchable and are,
therefore, made to the approximate
diameter of rim. Flaps should be
used in all sizes of Quick Detachable
Clincher and Straight-Side cases,
otherwise much difficulty will be ex.
perienced with the inner tubes.
Several years ago tire manufacture
ers cemented the flaps to one side of
cases. The heat of tire caused flap
to loosen, slip out of position, work
under beads, wrinkle and chafe tubes.

Big Island Has Gone Ahead Right Manner in Building Roads

tors Enjoy Ride Over Well Paved Streets in City of Hio

Honolulu can surely learn from
the island of Hawaii regarding good
roads," said II. Lee of Seattle, Wash.
who made the trip to the volcano on
July I. mo wonder the people OF
Hawaii are talking progress. The
roads show that they have gone after
the matter in the right way"
Mr.. Lee was one of party that
journeyed from Hilo to the Volcano
house on Sunday. and all along the
route TO the crater he spoke of the
roads. Others in the party. stated
that If Oahu could show roads like
those on Hawaii the tourists would
flock here in numbers.
Regarding the good road question
one of the Hilo merchants said: "Ws
have good roads, but the tourists who
come here do not have an opportunity
to use them as much as is possible.
The Great Northern remains only a
short time, and those who bring
along their autos do not uDpack them
until they reach Honolulu"
Wears Praises Roads.
George H. Wears, Hawaii member
Oh the Travail FTODlOllOu zOOIHullltSc,
SPOKE of the good roads, and stated
that Hawaii intended to keep up the
reputation, and in time the tourists
would learn that they could bring
their machines to the Big Island and
be satisfied.
Hilo surely has gone after the good
road question in thorough manner.
OF the hundreds Of visitors from Ho-
nolulu who attended the Fourth Of
July celebration, not one but men,
tened the good roads, From the
wharves to the center of the city a
hard concrete base has been laid
which would be a credit to any city.
and the roadway leading to Kuhio
wharf is one that is not equaled
anywhere in the territory.
Wonderful Roadways.
Along the way to the volcano the
roads are good, and only in short
stretches were there any rocks. The
ride by auto from Hilo to the Volcano
house Is one of delight. and then past
the Volcano house toward Kohala Is
sasstratch of road that isFas smooth
