scIEN1Isfs NOT ALARMED
OVER HOT AIR EXPAMSIoN
|. Hot and Cold weather Show but
y Slight Variation In Air Pressurss

A large number of inquiries from
motorists throughout the United
States with reference to the expan-
sion of the air in automobile tires
in hot weather has caused the
scientists of the .B r. Goodrich
Rubber Company to make care
full analysis of the changes that
take place when there is any varia-
tiOn in the tempature of the tire.
In making computations an ini-
tial air pressure of 20 pounds was
used. This is the pressure prescribed
by all tire manufactures for a 34x4
tire. The air is pumped into the
tire at tempature of 40 degrees
Fahrenheit and gradually heater
until it rises to ITO degrees Fahren-
heit. At this point the reading OF
the air pressure would indicate 1874
pounds, or an increase of but 8.4
pounds. This is not considered
dangerous, for seldom, if ever, will
the tires of motor car undergo
such extreme changes in tempera-
ture
A probably more practical com
putatiOn for the same tire with 20
pounds of air pressure is made witt.
the temperature at the beginning
registering 20 degrees Fahrenheit.
Fast driving through hot sandy
stretches, for example, would cause
the temperature of the tire to reach
probably 40 degrees. Even under
these conditions the air pressure
would increase to but 1853 pounds
This is most usual condition and
the results prove that the expan.
sion is still more negligible than in
the previous instance.
1t has been assumed, and frequent
careful observations have proven
it, that there are comparatively few
motorists who keep the prescribed
air pressure in their tires.
1t is well to point out in connec
tion with these computations, that
the rise in the tire, due to its being
run, is as great in proportion in
cold weather asi it is in warm wealth
er. Therefore, the increase in the
air pressure due to this source must
correspond in cold weather as in
warm.

It Was . Blessing?

A recent issue of the Topeka
tKas.) Capital, reminescently, re-
calls an event that happened some
years ago and that made q stir. 1t
was speech by the late Eugene
Ware on the occasion of raising q
flag at the Topeka high school.
Ware declared that the United
States greatest need was war, be
cause war is an educator and
brings to the people renewed pa
trOtisnl
The world was shocked when Mr..
Ware said:
I'VE should have a war every gen.
Grafton if we are to keep the fires of
patriotism burning in the hearts of
the people"
The srand he took was that with
out war patriotism becomes a rem
iniscence and the atmosphere be-
comes csuper heated with avarice
and greed. That the thoughts of
the people in time of peace was
money and prOperty--a selfish life.
when war breaks out" he de
clared, greed is dethrOned, and the
man who can do the most for his
country then comes to the front.
When country is at war. money
making ceases to be the chief end
of man."
There is enough truth in the
above suggestions to make one stop
and think. The individual sacri-
fees for his country, though we
know that the war in Europe has
for its foundational governmental
greed commercially and politically.
In this war America is unselfish.
Long continued peace in this
country, the speaker said, brings
us trouble. I'm times OF peace So
cialism and anarchy assail the flag;
in times of war they don't. Social
ism is simply organized indolence.
Anarchy is only disappointed avar-
ice. In times of peace we have them
both. A dose of war cures both
these evils"
Looking down into the manly
faces of the young men before him,
ifMr. Ware said: 'sThere are those
now here who will be in the. next
war. There are before me captains
and colonels, and to them will be
confided the safety of this flag and
the honor of this country. These
young men are from fighting race
and a fighting nation, and fight.
ing state, and will do themselves
honor when the time arrives. And
the young ladies who are present
will see that they do, for women
are always patriotic"

suffering from kidney weakness
which caused my back to ache con
tinually. I had tired feeling that
hindered me in doing my house
work but Doan's Kidney Pills
brought me the best of results. I
have taken them several times
since, when ever I have felt slight
recurrence of the trouble. Doan's

This is very painful and danger.
Gus disease. In almost every neigh
borhood someone has died from it
before medicine could be obtained
or physician summoned. The
right way is to have a bottle of
Chamberlain's Collie and Diarrhoea

Washington, Dec. 18.-That the
knights of Columbus, representing, the
Catholics of this country, have been
recognized by the American military
authorities in France as an official
agency for welfare work among the
soldiers of the American expeditionary
force, is the word which had reached
the knights of Columbus committee
on war activities from Walter N. Ker-
nan, knights of Columbus commits
sioner abroad. Mr.. kernan's message
was conveyed by cable and was neces-
sarily brief, but it is an assurance
that the delays which have impeded
the progress of this work in France
have been overcome and that from
now on Knights of Columbus activi-
ties abroad will be conducted on a
scale even larger than that which has
married. the social. recrcatiCral and re-
ligious work undertaken by this or
ganization in the encampments and
cantonments of this country.
Mr.. Herman expects to return 10
America in the near future to make
some necessary arrangements which
can only be completed in this country.
It is the intention of Mr.. Herman to en-
list the services of staff of competent
field secretaries for work abroad. and

APPEAL TO Pope TO SAVE
IRELAND FROM sENK FEM
English Protestants Wouid Ask His
Holiness to Condemn Sim Fcin.

After abusing the Pope and attack
ing him for his peace proposals, we
now find English Protestants pre-
pared to run to him to save Ireland
from Sim Fein, and incidentally allay
England's anxiety. Major Hunt, a
Unionist member, asked the House re
Gently whether in view of the fact that
the late Duke Of Norfolk had appealed
to the Pope against the Fenians, His
Holiness could not be asked at the
present time to forbid his priests to
join Sim Fein or support it from the
pulpit.
The Chancellor said that such pro-
posed act on the part of the British
Government aroused many questions,
and in any event needed much think
ing out before the principle involved
was adopted. OF course, such an ap-
peal to the Pope would be an admis-
sion of his supreme right to control
his clergy, and would also reinstate
the old Catholic principle of benefit
of clergy whereby ecclesiastics could
not be treated under the civil law.

Is y Feiin
Leader Eligible?
Sim Fein Leader May NOT Be Brit
ish Citizen.
Born in New York, But Taken to Ire
land When Two Years of Age.
AS He Did Not Intend to Serve the
Question Is Legal and Academic.

In the course OF a recent debate in
the House OF Commons, Henry E.
Duke, Chief Secretary for Ireland, said
that Professor Edward De Valera, the
Sim Fein leader, when in prison after
the Dublin rising. gave his birthplace
as New York AS there was no record
OF his having become a British subject,
the Secretary added, it was open to
any elector to challenge De Valera's
election as Member of the House for
East Clare.
If the British Government takes the
course indicated by Chief Secretary
Duke in the above statement it will
be playing into the hands of the Sim
Feiners by giving them an opportunity
to make another demonstration of
their overwhelming strength in Ire
land. If DE Valera should be unseated
and disqualified, of course, the Sheriff
would refuse to receive his nomination
at the new election, but Sim Fein has
an abundance of candidates and the
people of East Clare would elect by
an enormous majority another man
who would refuse to take his seat
But there is a legal question ill.,
volvcd that will be Il hard nut for the
Crown lawyers to crack. DE Valera
was only 2 years of age when, his IA
thcr having died, his mother took him
to Ireland. His birth in New York
made him an American citizen, but,
according to American law, any citi-
zen failing to register at an American
Consulate after Il certain time loses
his citizenship. dc Valera, it is un-
dcrstOOd, never registered, and there
fore lost his American citizenship.
Whether he is now a British subject
or not is u question for British lawyers
to determine.
Several American citizens have
been elected to the British Parliament
and to other political Offices without
having previously become British SUBJ
jects. There was a notable cOntrO-
vcrsy during the Blaine campaign for
the Presidency in 1884 over an Amer-
can citizen named McSwceny, who re-
turned to Ireland and was elected a
Poor Law Guardian i'm Donegal. In
the course of the Land League agita-
ton he was arrested and appealed to
the American Government for protec-
tiOn. James G. Blaine was then Sec
retary of State and refused to inter
vene in McSweeny's behalf, on the
ground that by his election to public
Office under the British Government
he forfeited his American citizenship.
McSweency had returned to America
and, being a Democrat, used Blaine's
failure to do anything to get him out
of Jail as a campaign argument. 1t
did not hurt Blaine much and he was
defeated by the Burchard cry of rum,
ROmanism and rebellion" because the
Republican candidate had not the
moral courage to rebuke the stupidity.
