TREAD OF TIRE
IMPORTANT PART

The proper care of the tread is one
of the important elements in tire con.
servation which I'VE are trying to Inn
press on motorists" says r. 8. vii.
son, manager service department, the
Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company.
The tread of tire is one of its most
important parts. Its purpose Is to
protect the carcass from the wear and
tear of road travel and from deteriora-
ting influences, such as moisture anu
dirt. If it becomes cut or torn the
tread does not have a fair chance to
protest the carcass.
Ordinary tread cuts are noticed
and vulcanized by many motorists
But the little cuts, caused by nails,
broken glass, etc.-these are the ones
which cause so much trouble. These
little cuts suck in dirt and moisture
which work into the cotton fabric
The union between the rubber of the
tread and the fabric OF the carcass
is soon destroyed Sometimes tread
that has been cut badly on stony
roads will separate all the way around
the tire as the result of a single
rainy days driving.
"a little time and care expended in
filling these little cuts with tire putty
such as is found in the Goodyear tire
saver kit. Is amply rewarded by addi
tional mileage. II is Just like the care
bestowed on the grease cups. II

about their prematurely deceased tires

he could not live. His laconic reply
was, Well, expected this but not
quite so soon Every one realizes
that tires must wear out some day.
But no one expects them to give out
as soon as some do. No matter how
many thousands of miles the tire has
travelled, the blowout always comes
as a shock Of disappointment
in many instances the tires life could
have been prolonged UNNECESSARILY
through a little care and time taken
to fiji the minute tread cuts which
seemed so unimportant.

ice from a pneumatic tire. the condi-
ton of the tread must be watched
constantly" -. ..*.... -

HENRY EXPLAINS
why BATTERY in
CAR WEARS out

"The storage battery" says Harry
Henry. the local Willard expert at
Smoot & Steinhauser, Ltd. lis just as
liable to wear out as tires and. like
the tire, II must be given careful at
teHtion by the owner IL the longest
possible life Is TO be obtained from II.
A storage battery is chemical ap-
paratus consisting of positive and
negative lead plates immersed in cleo
trotyte, a solution Of sulphuric acid.
When the starting motor is used or
the lights or ignition system put on
the circuit, certain electro-chemical
action takes place between the posi-
tive and negative plates in the pres
ence of the electrolyte and electricity
flows through the wires.
AS this chemical action continues
the character OF the plates change and
the current will, ultimately, cease to
flow and the battery will be dead.
This condition, however, is fore
stalled by the generator, causing the
current to flow in the opposite direc-
tion, or to charge" the battery.
Charging the battery does not
mean that electricity is being stored
up by the battery. but that by means
OF electricity the plates are being
restored TO the condition in which
they were before the discharge began.
Because II is a chemical apparatus
then, and not mechanical like a ma
chine of iron and Steel the storage
battery cannot be subjected to wear
and tear of service without gradually
deteriorating. Even when the battery
is at rest, some action is going on,
and discharge is slowly taking place.
In time the plates lost their ca
pactty for reacting to the electrical
charging. The insulation is all the
time gradually wearing out and fin
ally that gives way. Even with the
best of care and with the best pos.
sible material, this is going to happen
with any storage battery.
but the battery does not always
receive the best attention. II is the
one accessory on the car which the
average car owner seems to neglect.
The car owner, however, should get
his full moneys worth from good
battery IL he gives 1t care, although,
as We have pointed out. he should ex.
pect to buy a new battery some day.
This Is just as reasonable an expense
as buying new tire.
From the foregoing 1t is perfectly
obvious that batteries must be made
of the best quality possible to begin
with and then. II they are to be kept
In efficient condition. they must have
good treatment at the hands Of the
owners. 1t is impossible to prescribe
any definite term of life for stor-
age battery for It's period of efficiency
may vary greatly according to the two
factors just mentioned, as well as in
accordance with the quality and con-
dition Of the starting motor and gener
ator.

In 1910, Sims, then a captain. was
in command of the battle ship Min

other side Of the Atlantic when the
American feet sailed around the world.
He was entertained at dinner IN Lon
don, and there made an address which
became an international incident.
Sims warned the English that con-

attack them, and warned them OF dire

Sims had not mentioned the Ger

correctly understood that ANYBODY who
spoke of an external enemy was re-
ferring to Germany. So the BerEl
statesmen confessed their identity by
formally protesting to the American
government against such language by

letter Of reprimand to Captain Sims
which he promptly framed and gave

Billy Bunny and His Friends

Bunny decided to keep quiet, for he
didn't want to have all his breath
squeezed out OF him, you know.
Well by and by, as the Miller's boy
walked along, the Jacket slipped q lit
tie under his arm, and then Billy
Bunny Bunny saw little light thru
the arm sleeve. And before you could
say Jumping catsi" he pushed thru
the sleeve and down to the ground and
hoped away, free as bird in the air
or fish in the ocean.
And I'm so glad that I'm going to
say Hip, hip, hurrah" Just as loud as
l can, for II there Ii anybody hate It
is that Miller's boy. Ever since I
started to tell you about Billy Bunny
he has been trying to catch this dear
little rabbit and this time i certainly
thought he had. And now that Billy
Bunny is safe I'm SO happy could
shout again.
Go home you horrid Miller's boy,
Who's always trying to annoy
The Friendly Little Forest Folk
BY trying every kind Of joke.
Go home and tie the bags OF meal
And never try again to steal
A little rabbit son his way
Who's always cheerful all the day.
Well, after the little rabbit had
hoped for maybe a mile or three, he
thought he was safe. and SO he stopped
to rest, and would tell you right now
what he did, only must stop so as to
get this story in the paper in time, so

that whistle which mentioned in the

kind of whistle it was, because ! had
no more room, he jumped clear across
the brook which was close by and
never stopped running until he found
himself once more in his own stable.
And then before Billy Bunny could
even say Call me up on the tele-
phone or Wont you lunch with me
tomorrow of course the Brown Horse
was out Of sight. So the little rabbit
waited minute to see If he could hear
the strange whistle again, and sure
enough he did, and it was right close
to him this time and when he looked
around there stood the Miller's boy.
And before Billy Bunny could hop
away something hard hit him on the
head and he rolled over on the ground
and didn't wake up until he found
himself rolled up in the Miller boys
jacket and oh dear me! The Miller's
boy was walking home as fast as he
could and there was our dear little
