HOOVERIzE TIRE
BILLS IS ADVICE
Allen Says Many Tires Go
Bad by Carelessness of
the MntnriSt.

Hooverize' your car-extend war
time economy to include the automo-
BILE and conserve it by keeping it in
the ping of condition" is the timely
I injunction OF c. n. Allen, branch
manager of the Goodyear Tire and
Rubber company.
This does not mean" says Mr.. Al
len, that your car must be restricted
in its use, but to conserve its power
and usefulness, thereby rendering bet
] ter service TO its owner. Thousands Of
motorists this winter are endeavOring
TO secure the fullest service from their
cars, who have never before taken
their motoring expense seriously, but
in the evolution of the automobile
from a pleasure vehicle 10 one OF utili-
tartan usage these motorists have felt
the need OF practicinE the same
economies in their automobile main
tenance that they have been COM
PEELED to adopt in supplying their
other wants.
Our observation so far has been
that when motorists avail themselves
of our service station inspection Serv-
ice they are amply repaid in the ex-
ira mileage their tires deliver. It is
surprising how many extra miles a
tire will deliver as the result of the
observance of a few simple rules. And
practice that it is a wonder motorists
do not flock into the service stations
to learn them. instead of requiring so
much effort on the part of the manu-
facturer OF the tires and the dealer
who passes them over the counter to
the motorist-
Fully so percent Of all the tires
used 90 out Of service prematurely be-
cause Of insufficient initiation; so per-
cent more go out OF commission be-
cause Of neglected tread cuts; the re-
naming ten percent go TO an early
grave because OF wheels out of align
ment, brakes working unevenly, and
various other minor causes.
HOoveriZing' your tires does not
mean that you must restrict your car
mileage On the other hand you can
actually increase your tire mileage
and at the same decrease your tire
costs. It is waste and misuse rather
than continuous use that breaks down
q tire. Our people have been COM
PEELED to practice economy in the use
Of food, coal, clothing, and other
things that are catalogued as actual
necessities, and to these must be add
ed conservation OF tires. At this time
when our crude rubber must be trans
ported thousands of miles in ships
across the Pacific, when these same
ships could render invaluable service !
in transatlantic shipping. it is import
ant that not a pound Of It be wasted. /
1t takes but a few minutes to have
your tires looked over at one of our /
service stations. and the results in 4
added mileage run all the way from a 4
hundred miles to several thousand 1
miles. according to the condition of /
the tire when first submitted for in /
spection. We feel that we cannot too /
available measure TO secure maximum 1
from their tires"

MOTOR TRUCK HAS TAKEN PLACE
AS NATIONAL FREIGHT CARRIER
Long Hauls, Made in War Emergency Prove Efficiency
of Trucks; Autocar Official Declares All Hauls
Up to so Miles Are Rightly in the Field
of Motor Truck Transport.

eddy, certain carload shipments of
! great bulk that in normal times
I should be moved by rail. even within
J the city; particularly where the ship
per and consignee both have sidings.
] To move some Of these loads over the
streets would congest traffic and en-
danger life.
Keeps Trucks eat IT.
Very definite orders and proposals
are being made in all our large cities
looking to the immediate removal Of
merchandise standing in freight cars,
on piers, in pier sheds and ware
houses Penalties for the use of cars
and terminals to store goods have al
ready been announced by secretary
McAdoo. federal director OF railroads.
This insistent demand that merchan-
disc be on the continuous move is
calling to the motor truck to ever
lastingly keep at it.
THE rural districts are daily be
coming nearer and nearer to the city
markets BY means of motor trucks;
there is hardly a meeting of an agri-
cultural society today that is not
adopting some resolution looking to
the spread of good roads as the chief
solution Of the quicker and more eco
nonlical distribution Of foodstuffs.
Would certain berry grower, who
lives in Jersey, 40 miles from his
city market go back to horses after
he has used 4 motor truck that takes
his produce TO market in a few hours
and gives him the day on the farm
No. indeed The farmer who has used
motor trucks is fast converting his
neighbor-and between them they are
diverting many thousands OF tons of
hauling to the highways.
POstOffice Points the Way.
IN the rural transportation by
road, too, Uncle Sam is pointing the
way; the postoffice department has
instituted parcel post motor truck
routes connecting country districts
with the large cities These govern
ment trucks are already running on
certain routes and the farmer can
ship his produce direct The service
is not a venture. It is merely the
utilization Of a transportation unit
thai has already proved its practical
blity and 1t is hard to proDheSy to
what limits this service will extend,
or the benefits that it will bring
with II. One thing is certain-those
who live along these motor truck
routes viii have a daily demonstra-
ton Of motor truck possibilities.
To-day, as never before, the re-
sourcefulness Of America must find
way TO overcome obstacles. It be-
hOoves any man who has goods to
ship to transport these goods in such
a way as TO distribute the burden of
transportation over every possible
carrier. Railroads and waterways
must be used to their highest eff
cient possibilities, but the loads that
are highway loads should
travel over the highways
The roads must in every locality
be built. maintained and kept open to
meet this growing need. It viii mean
much toward speeding up the great
business Of war now; and in the fu-
ture, when the loads OF peace are |
hither and thither. the bless |
ngs OF adequate transportation viii |
amply repay every effort and expend- |
ture."

DEAR MISS FNIRFAX:

DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
I am in love with a soldier Of
q who expects to leave for the
front shortly. He is continually
asking me TO marry him secretly
before he leaves, but I am in
doubt as TO whether to do so, as I
am sure that my parents would
not approve Lillian L. NJ
You are much too young to think
OF marriage. And in any event secret
marriages are most undesirable. OF
course your parents would disapprove.
But when it comes to marrying a man
who must leave her at once, then
surely a girl must not be allowed TO
take so important a step without tell
ing her parents.
