ENORMOUS WASTE IS GHCr.Q
Estimated That $1so,ooo,ooo Can Be
Saved Annually in Tire Bills
Could Re Prevented.

Last year the motorists OF the Unit
cd States took from their wheels and
replaced some 100000 tires which
had apparently run their course. rep
rescnting an original expenditure Of
about $3O0O00,OOO, according t. a
statement just issued By the National
Automobile chamber Of commerce.
The cry Of the car owners who dis
carGed this great multitude Of tires is
for better tires, less tire trouble, few
CT tire changes, longer tire life, lower
cost per mile. Yet through the appli-
cation of the simplest methods of tire
conservation, at the command of every
lnotOrist, it is estimated that fully
one-half Of this enormous mortality in
tires and loss in money might have
been prevented. Thousands of these
tires were replaced because they had
passed away before their time.
If S150,OOOO00 Of the nations tire
bill could be saved annually five mag
nificent highways could be built across
the continent each year and the ma
ton so honeycombed with motor roads

may be revOlved at a greater rate or.
speed than the armature. The means
by which this change in relation is
accomplished through the electric con-
trOller is quite simple to anyone who
understands an electric circuit, as it is
nothing more nor less than cutting
out of more or less resistance in the
field.
"When it is desired to run in the
high or direct speed there is no diff
Ference in speed at all between arm
allure and field. When running in the
lower speeds there is a difference, just
so much as is provided for by the posi-
ton of the controller lever. Thus it
is seen that all the effects of clutch
and gears are gained without the use
of them"
When the field and the armature are
moving at different speeds a certain
amount of electric energy is gener-
ated. A special apparatus collects this
and supplies it as electric auxiliary
power for running the car. The trauS-
mission is also an effective engine
starter. And the reverse potential set
up by the revolution of the rear
wheels when the controller lever IS IN
the neutral position and the car travel
ing at any speed above the Uirin m
acts as most efficient brake.

Be Quiet.

"Study to be quiet"-that is, study
to dismiss all hustle and worry out of
your inward life. Study also to "do
your own business" and do not try to
do the business of other people. A
great deal of "creaturely activity" is
extended in trying to do other peoples
business. 1t is often hard to "sit still'
when we see our friends, according to
our ideas, mismanaging matters, and
making such dreadful blunders. But

human order as well, Is for each one of
us to do our own business, and to re-
