Another fact that impressed me very strongly, was the little wear that could be detected on the castings upon my re- turn and with Phoenix air still in the tires, covering a little better than 1900 miles since leaving on August 5th. l can lay this fact to no other reason than the ease with which the car seems to roll instead of blow l do not wish to convey the idea, however, that all the roads were poor.

 In making the( accompanying cal culations, the sizes of the truck tires were assumed to be on trucks of 5- ,-on capacity with tires 36x6 front, and 40X6 dual, rear.
 In selecting these sizes. five diff ferent representative trucks were used. The standard makes of truck tires are at the present time guar anteed for 1000 miles of service on i trucks, and of course this guaran- tee holds good on trailers However. iopg tests have proven that We should be entitled to guarantee of at least lv,OCO or II 600 mics when these same sizes of tires are used on traiierS This matter has been taken up with the tIre companies and they have agreed that It is reasonable to expect longer life tor tires when used on trailer than when used on a truck, but they do not care to complicate ! matters by giving guarantees for diff felent periods of time
 The items of insurance were ar rived at in the following manner: The liability insurance for trailers IS now. 25 per cent of the premium charged for trucks. The fire insur-
 
 i trucks in proportion to the list prices
 The salary of drivers has been ] placed at $3.50 for the 5-ton truck As the price of drivers varies from S1o to $25 per week, this is an item upon which no exact figures can be con- piled
 1 For the purpose of comparison. we have made the life of the trailer , years. As a matter of fact under. under average conditions, it will last 1 indefinitely, as it is not subjected to as severe strains as is the truck. | Standard high grade trucks and trailers have been taken for the basis 1 of these calculations.
 There is no reason to believe that the amounts charged to trailer repairs i Will be- as high as the figures given, and we have made these figures much more liberal than past experience in trailer repair would seem to warrant. | Many trucks carry a helper, which slightly increases the operating cost of truck. When the trailer equipment | is added this makes the cost figures still more pronounced in favor of the trailer, as the carrying capacity ot the truck is doubled with no addi- tional labor cost.
 It should be understood that the ] foregoing costs have been figured at | prevailing market prices and as near ly accurate as possible, but they will not fit individual cases as the costs vary so widely, in class of work, cost of materials, road conditions, material to be hauled, etc.

she will be forced to lend you her ear
rings along with them, for an ear with
out dangling ear-drop or button
Of pearl smuggling close to a pink lobe
is scarcer even than sugar or coal.
Perhaps you are laboring under the
delusion that when you have pair of
stockings, shoes and gloves to match
your new gown, your toilette is com
plete. You re all wrong. 'Twere better
far to be gloveless than earringless, and
down in Greenwich Village they would
even rather pass up the hosiery. Ear
rings for every day in the week or for
every dress in your outfit are the cry
ing needs of the moment and the mode.
There are long drops Of jet, jet balls
bobbling ON chains or round and oval
hoops of jet, jet buttons or pearl but
tons and pearl balls bobbing on chains
to wear with the smart gowns Of black
and white satin or velvet now so chic.
Turquoise, lapis lazula, and imitation
sapphire offer shades of blue in all
shapes to go with your frocks Of the
blues. There is amber, clouded or clear,
and also ear-drops of chased and filigre
gold for your yellowish toilettes jade,
crysophrase and imitation emerald for
the green girls and coral, pink, and red,
for the rosy robes while new hoops,
ovals and odd shaped pendants of tor
toise shell offer shades for any frock
that is done brown.
For the evening oriental effects of
every color in the rainbow enhanced
with brilliants are guaranteed to make
even the dullest girl bright, if she has

bent beneath the load of literal chains
Her head sags with the burden Of the
heavy pendants dangling from her ears
and her neck bows beneath the weight
of heavy links Of metal alternated with
hunks of colored stones.
The span of years between the prim-
tive cave woman of the dark ages and
the enlightened suffragette of 1917 has
been bridged with links of gold and sill

her bauble chains.
Whether it is a bear claw necklace

quite the same effect. assure you, only
question of little different setting
and a little different set.
Most of the elaborate chains, pend
ants and necklaces that the smartest
shops are showing have the Oriental col
orings shapes and tendencies. Chinese
seals, carvings, tassels, ivories and
jades vie with Egyptian scarabs, slabs
of lapis, jade or tourquoise cut deep
with hieroglyphics from some gummy

new Egyptian earrings are large dang

green or black composition with Egyp-

HUN CRUISER

(By Associated Press Dlspateh)

UNDATED.-The former German cruiser Geier, seized in Pacific port at the outbreak of the war, will be ready to go into commission as a unit of the American navy on the first of October, according to a report made to the navy department.
 When diplomatic relations were broken off with Germany, the crew of the little cruiser Geier destroyed valuable parts of the engines, togeth- CT with the blue prints, in an effort to make the craft useless to the. Americans. Repair crews have been at work on the vessel ever since, with the result that the engines will have been completely restored by the first of next month

 While the plans of the American commanders are unknown, it would logical from a military stand point that after the artillery has completed several weeks of training the front lason with the French infantry and supporting guns the greater part of it would be with drawn for maneuvers with the gradually multiplying American infantry.
 Theer are no longer any French officers or poiIus actually serving at the guns the crews having been Amer icanzed throughout At the observation posts and in the schools of instruction French officers sit no wonly in an advisory capacity

 This decision reIents somewhat from the decision reached by the United States some weeks ago to pro- hibit further shipments of foodstufs to Germany. Strong protests have been made against this course by Flu rOpean neutrals, and these countries have made strong showings that they would be brought to the verge of ac- tual starvation by the American en- bargo on foodstutrs.

 The inventory will comprise lands, forests, railroads, factories, work hops and other profit yielding state undertakings. The governments aim is to alleviate the burden of taxation by inaugurating a less wasteful and more enterprising system of manage ment.
