TIRE NOW OR NOT
 AT ALL, OPINION

Being in the tire business and in rather close touch with tire affairs, would, if in the motorists shoes, be buying tires right now" says c. K. Hughes of the Smith, Hughes & Co.,, distributor for the Racine Multi Mile Cord and the Racine Country Road tires.
 Many people look at an advance in tire price, with a sort of feeling that 1t was a poor time to buy and they hold off expecting the price to take tumble and this view may have been all right in times past. but this is war time and the length of the war Is still an unde- terminate factor.
 "l do not mean to be pessimistic over the outlook of the tire situation or 10 infer that there is any Hughes threat ening crisis because l do not believe that tires will continue 10 advance in price and that the man who postpones buying will pay a higher rather than a lower price.
 Nearly all tire companies have supply of crude rubber and other ma terlals to last them for few months, but some sort of government embargo seems an absolute surety which is no more than right. says MT. Osler be- cause we want to cooperate with the government in every way and help to win this war and if the government feels that such a step is necessary, we should be heartily In favor of such a step even if it does mean some personal sacrifices

 TALKS 0F CONFLICT

Though boyish looking. Corporal Van De Word of the Canadian army is a veteran of the world war. He has been in it from the beginning; he has been in it twice and is anxious to get in it again. He first went with the Canadian Pioneers and then with the Canadian Scottish whose uniform he now wears.
 'I went into it'' he said, because I did not like the Germans. I was fed up with them on an Arctic expedition. There were several Germans who kept together and talked their own lan- guage. They said I ought to learn it for it was going to be the language of the world. There were many other thing about them I did not like and when you do not like a man and have to be on shipboard with him a couple of years you get so you dislike him a whole lot: him and all his kind.

STANLEY STEAMER
 POINTS EXPLAINED

In the construction of the Stanley Steamer car the manufacturers have been able to effect a proper distribu tion of the weight. The front wheels carry 1.610 pounds and the rear wheels 2,265 pounds, which according to en- gineers gives the best riding qualities.
 The 7-passenger Stanley weighs B. S75 pounds, fully equipped. which con- sidering the wheel base. is a small weight. This is made possible on ac- count of the distribution of the power plant. These factors in the construc- tion of the Stanley Steamer do much to enhance it's riding qualities and in crease tire mileage.

the manager of the Arizona Steam Mo- tors company said:
 There is no difficulty in showing the individual the strong points of a steam propelled car. in fact a demon stration satisfies them in their own mind of these things, but the trouble is, they are overwhelmed with the idea of gas driven cars. and hesitate to break with popular opinion. so to speak.
 As matter of fact the public should be familiar with the use of steam. It is the oldest motive power used, and was very early utilized in automobiles. When people cease to buy automobiles to be stylish and rather for the performance. the Stan ley will be more appreciated"

 Wears Several Medals
 Corporal Van De Word wears several badges: one is a medal; the Kings Corporal badge; then there is his service badge and then there are on the left sleeve two little golden bars running lengthwise with the sleeve. They are outward manifestations of other badges on the body, machine gun bullet scars. There are two of them which went through him diagonally. If they had caught more front-wise the spray of bullets would have cut him in two. One of those little golden bars stands for those two badges. The other bar is for wound in another engagement.
 Corporal Van De Word left the front a year ago last April He stayed for some time in England where he met the vanguard of the Americans the Engineers and he was present at the reception given them by the British government. He fought in Belgium and latter in that part of the country in Pfcardy where the present fighting is in progress.
 Will Be Slow Work
 Notwithstanding the progress being made by the allies he believes that the driving of the Germans out of France and Belgium will be slow work. They will be doing we'll if they can force the Huns back to Cambrai and San Quen- tin on the old Hindenburg line this year. Progress in that country is made at terrible cost. In the fighting of nearly two years ago a certain trench was taken four times by the Germans and five times by the British. Each success cost a thousand men and once the British lost as many while they were abandoning the trench.
 The corporal is not actively engaged in recruiting but in way he is; his business is to go about the country to tell those who desire to enter the Cana dian service where they can do so and the conditions of their entrance. He will be in Phoenix three more days He will be one of the speakers today at the ceremony on the eve of the de- parture of the contingent to the can tonment tomorrow.

Outside of the chorus. in the

scott at it.
