GOOD TUBE AS IMPORTANT
AS HAVING GOOD CASING

Many motorists in reviewing tire
mileage records often credit the salts
factory performance to the casing, to
the exclusion OF the tube forgetting
or overlooking the fact that II the tube
had not acted its part faithfully, the
casing could not have established so
good a record If the casing is right.
OF course the work of the tube is very
simple. It does not have to withstand
pressure and wear. II has only to hold
air and keep on holding air
This is why so many motorists think
a tube is 4 tube and let Il 20 at that
explains r. : Wilson, service manager
OF the Goodyear Tire & Rubber com
pany.
Tubes cost relatively littIe,- says
Mr. Wilson. but poor tubes can easily
become the most expensive part Of
your equipment Too many dealers Will
sell you good castings and low grade.
low profit tubes, which cost many times
their price by losing pressure, and so
wearing out the castings
Good tubes add life to anv tires. and
for this reason we are trying to i'm
press upon all tire users the truth that
good tubes are just as important as
good casIngs. Much more tire trouble
than IS commonly supposed. can be
traced 10 poor tubes. rather than 70
poor castings. Some motorists could
actually afford 10 throw away the
tubes they are using and replace then
with quality tubes. They would save

The bill, which covers twelve and

that road construction in Texas in

a fuller appreciation Of the demands

BOXPARTY MEMBER
Orders Curtain" When Audible
Comment Interrupts Dia-
logue on Stage.

ALA Nazimova, the Russia actress
appearing at the Belasco Theater this
week, will not act when people In
the audience talk out loud.
And for this reason the curtain was
rung down before its time at the per-
formance of "'Ception Shoals" last
night
1t was toward the end of the second
act, when Miss Elizabeth Luckett, in
the role OF the young mother of a
five-week-old baby, vouchsafes to ex-
plain to a girl of her own age, isolat-
ed from all women up to this time,
through strange circumstances, infor-
nation concerning married life.
At this point an audible comment
came from one of the boxes. with but
word to Miss Luckett, Nazinfova
said plainly, Curtain" and the scene
was curtailed.
The walt between the second and
third acts was unusually long.
Suddenly, every light in the theater
save those Illuminating one box was
put out.
While the lights in the box were
on and the rest of the theater in dark
ness, the persons who had held the
illuminated box made their exit.
As soon as they had gone the cur
tain rose, on the third act, not before
however, the audience had signified
its approval of the exit by hand
clapping.

SEEKS THIRD ARCTIC SHIP
Committee to Send New croekerland
Expedition.

NEW YORK, March PA third re-
lief expedition will be sent to the
Arctic this summer by the American
Museum of Natural History to locate
and bring home the members OF the
Crocker land expedition, which went
north IN 1913.
George H. Sherwood, acting chair
man of the committee in charge Of
the enterprise, said that owing to
war conditions and discontinuance Of
mail service between Denmark and
Greenland, it will be impossible to
get any news this spring. Even II a
member of the party sledges across
the ice from South Greenland to send
a cable message by way OF the Farce
island, he cannot get out through
Godhaven or Holsetenborg to send
his message.
The latest word of the expedition
came from DR.. Hovey in a letter dated
July 10, 1916, and brought out by
the Cluette last September. At that
time all were well.
The second relief ship, the Dan
mark, was reported in Melville bay,
$50 miles southeast of Cape York.
August 20, 1916. Admiral Peary and
others think she probably reached
North Star bay at least, and that the
explorers are on board.
The third vessel will be sent to
Etah, leaving st. Johns early in July.
The committee hopes to obtain a New
foundland sealer for this purpose,
and to have the Crockerland expedi-
tion back in Newfoundland late in
August.

ME-. BOARD PUTS
OFF DRY" PLEA
Secretary Says Congress and
President VIII Moi Be Nag
ged" at Next Session.

The passage of a national prohibi-
tion amendment will not be urged by
the board OF temperance of the Meth
odist Episcopal Church at the next
session of Congress. according to q
statement today by Rev. Clarence
True Wilson, secretary Of the board.
Mr.. Wilson states the belief that
the last session of Congress and
President Wilson did all that was
possible for prohibition.
"Prohibitionists are not ungrate-
full" says Mr.. Wilson, nor are they
disposed to nag at the House Of Rep
resentatives or the Senate or the
President at a time when men OF all
opinions should concentrate on prob
lens of the national defense and the
organization of the national indus
tries to meet the strains of the war.
In his statement. Mr.. Wilson says
that II is the opinion of all prohibi-
tionists that the national constitu-
tionaI amendment should be passed
at the earliest possible time, and IL
prohibition comes as a war measure
the whole country must spontaneous
ly demand it. Mr.. Wilson also ex-
presses the hope that the liquor man
ufacturers now will turn their atten-
tion to making their plants manu-
factories.

Government informally that by the
expiration of the next nine months,
il the war goes that long, they will
need in all probability all the man
power" the United States can supply

In this respect having been pretty
well exhausted.
The demand for money, however, is
incessant, and as the United States is
now the wealthiest country in the
world, the entente nations realize
that they have to look to the finan-
ciers of this country to supply the
funds.
The proposal that the United States
Government itself undertake to ad-
vance the money to France and Great
Britain, The Times is informed, grew
out of an unwillingness on the part
OF Cabinet members to have the
United States and each OF the entente
allies competing against one another

1t is believed that, with the banks
of America crowded with money.
there would be no difficulty in float
ing an American bond issue of such
proportions, particularly II the allied
governments are not in the market
offering higher rates OF interest.
While the work of financing the al
