GASEOUS GLEANINGS FROM { By WINNIE FREEMAN THE GARAGE GANG

If you don't believe that Birmingham is going to have the biggest automobile show ever put on in the south. just ster down to the corner of Fifth and Nine teenth, where they're working on the au- ditorium. which is to house the show, and then slide over to the Manufacturers Permanent Exhibit building and talk to Henry B. Marks about the proposition. If you don't come away convert to the cause of automobile shows, then you're not human.
 I, myself, personally, having heard SC much about automobile shows and won- dering if they really meant as much to a city as they were advertised to do. and being just a mere bit skeptical as to whether or not the Birmingham show was really going to be the biggest show ever staged in the south, went down to see MT. Marks.
 And he convinced me.
 "Yes, it's going to be some show. /
 ''There isn't a chance to get away from it, said MT. Marks. Its going to be a wonder
 And then he took me over and showed me the plans with aisles all around so that all the exhibits could be viewed from each side, and told me how in per-

COMPLETE LINE IS
 SHOWN BY WILLYS-
 OVERLAND CO.
Car for Every Purpose at Every Price" in the New
 York Show

ITO John N. Willys and the Willys- Overland company belong the honors of the 1917 New York automobile show. wlich opened Saturday night at the Grand Central Palace said H. NJ. Bailey of the Overland Birmingham company.
 At this event was publicly disclosed for the first time to the automobile in dustry, a complete line of cars by on, manufacturer
 For years it has been the ambition of Mir. Willys to market a complete line of cars-from automobiles that emphasize economy without sacrificing quality to the very highest type of cars in the luxurious class. The automobile he has just placed on the market are realiza- tion of this aim. In the line there is a car for every purpose at every price.
 Tn fact the entire line is so complete that but partial showing could be made at the Grand Central Palace. The bal ance of the cars are on display at the salesrocms of Willys-Overland Qnc) Broadway at Fiftieth street.
 '"The automobile trade divides itself into three sections-the buyer in the s75U class or less; the purchaser who is will ling to spend a little more than that, the S10O0 class; Sed last of all, the class that HdS IIIe IIOHey IO spend TOT cars over and above $1O00.
 ''To take care of the first class. the Willys-Overland company announces the light four, a light. economical four-cyl- finder, five-passenger design, which is a real achievement in smart style and luxuriousness for a car of its size.
 To fill the requirements of the next class, the Willys-Overland company of fers the new five-passenger light six at $9S5 and big four at $S5o. The big four and light six models were introduced by the Willys-Overland company last summer
 'Three-passenger roadster on both the four and siX-cylinder chassis are also announced at SS35 and $97o. respectively
 of course, the leader of the Willys- Overland company's line is the luxurious Willys-Knight eight. At times vague ru- mors had been heard that the Willys- Overland company would build an eight cylinder Knight notored car for 1917, but it was not until just recently that the Willys-Knight eight became an assured fact. Its greatest feature is the eight cylinder sieeve-valve motor the result of years of designing. developing and per- fecting by the Overland engineering staff.
 'The Willys-Overland company was the first American automobile builder to popularize the Knight motor in this coun- try, disposing Of 12,OO0 four-cyIinder mo- tor cars during the 1916 season."

 Al Watkins is making hit with that easy running Overland roadster.
 Its a pleasure to demonstrate such cars,' he says. And he even goes fur ther and says that good demonstra- ton Is practically equal to one whole sale. He evidently knows his business because if you've ever ridden in one of those Overlands you'll agree with him that it's some car.

chances they once did. The dependable vulcanzer today recommends only such work as he believes will effect a saving to the motorist. If repair is inadvis- able he will not recommend it, for every job of that character means dissatis- fled customer.
 There are a number of ways in which tires apparently worn out can be made to render much greater mileage. Often times an inside tire protector cenented on the inside of the casing will restore or partially restore it's original strength
 We have for sometime specialized in the production of a tire protector of this kind. Our Goodyear tire protector con- tains four plies of high grade 141s-ounce fabric, tapered down to a thin edge, pre- cluding all danger of tube pinching in the casing. Applied properly it becomes a part of the tire, and gives 1t extra life and durability. When the tire is finally worn out, the protector may be removed and applied in another tire.
 Before relegating your tires to the scrap pile, be sure to look them over carefully. A simple repair or a Good year accessory may add a few extra. thousands to their mileage"

Goodyear Protector Restores Original
 Strength, Says Jewell Taylor

Many motorists using tires that have given good mileage, nut have developed weak places in the fabric, have wondered whether in the interests of economy they should scrap the old tire or spend good money in an attempt.to coax more miles from it. Innumerable tires are con- stantly being discarded before their real usefulness Is over.
 Before discarding an old ure.' says Jewell Taylor, local branch manager, the Goodyear Tire and Rubber company, Tit Is well to show 1t to a consistent repair man. He will generally be able to de- termine whether the expenditure involved will result in the additional mileage ex- pected.

An Eve Batb

From the Popular Science Monthly.
 Every few seconds we wink both our eyehds at once, although not purposely. If we stop winking. our eyes become un- comfortable and gradually cease to work as they should. When the eye is open the front of it is exposed to dirt and dust and is apt to become so dry that 8 pain ful sting1ng sensation results or would do so IT constant moisture were not pro- Vlded to cleanse and soothe the tissues.
 AS matter of fact each time we wink we wash the eye. Up above each eye is a tiny water bag called the tear gland, ana all the time we are awake it makes tears. When the front of the eve feels itself becoming a little too dry or dusty a communication is sent for supply of moisture. The eyelid then comes down with a tear inside it to wash clean the front of the eye. This is the most gentle and perfect washing in the world

GLOBE, May S.-Pointing out that small newspApers all over the United States will be compelled to suspend publication if the proposed war tax becomes law, and that. thereby, the government as a whole will be the prin- cipal sufferer, Charles Edward iIogue, editor and manager of the Arizona Rec ord, speaking in the name of the press of this state, sent the following tele gram tonight, to Senators Smith and Ashurst and to Congressman Hayden:
 "On behalf of Arizona publishers, hope you will do utmost to protect newspapers in war tax bill. We pub fishers of larger papers can survive, but small towns will lose many of their publications if compelled to pay three per cent corporation tax and additional five per cent on advertising coilec- tiOns. Government should consider fact that these publishers have been giving them millions of dollars in space many years and that they will be de- pended upon throughout war to keeD alive patriotism and recruit army and navy. We all are ready to volunta hope that United States will not fall into England's error of keeping actual conditions away from the pubic.

HOW BRITAIN
 WOULD DEFEAT
 GERMAN THREAT
TRerublican A. p. Leased Wire1

WASHINGTON, May s. - What Great Britain is doing on farms and in the homes to meet the German threat of starvation was outlined today by H. D. Vigor, an expert of the Brit ish agricultural board, who is attached to the war commission now in Wash ington.
 Early in the war, MT Vigor said the British minister of agriculture endeav- ored to organize the department to stimulate food production in every
 way and to encourage both farmers and town dwellers to greater energy to meet the threatened food shortage.
 The farmers were approached by local committees with advice and of fers of modern machinery, much of it of American manufacture. HundreGs of American steam blows were inn ported and set to work on the farms;
 women and girls took the places of men.
 The townsmen turned their energies
 to the waste and unoccupied lands
 around the towns and in vacant lots
 Lots of 150 by 70 feet were developed l in countless numbers all over England 1 MT. Vigor said it was safe to say that 1 these lots would produce all of the vegetables needed to feed England i save potatoes.
 i Regarding the prospect for wheat i MT. Vigor said he feared it was too i late to add much to the British crop 1 this year and four-fifths of the needs 1 of the islands must be imported from
 America.
 Most boarding houses in England go
 without potatoes two days each week,
 and many families are without them entirely, the government having cut
 off imports of the vegetable as a 1 luxury.
 Practically no American corn was
 grown or eaten in England in the past i year, MT. -Vigor said, but now the gov
 ernment has ordered all millers to put at least 15 per cent of corn meal in
 the wheat flour. Regarding meats, he said, the British produced a good deal l of home grown cattle. For bacon and
 hams they were dependent altogether upon America

M, May S.-Both house and senate of the New Mexico legislature today passed the confer ence committee substitute for the state defense bill, the senate unanimously and the house with but two dissenting votes.
