TIRE SALESMAN HAS
 VARIED EXPERIENCE

A. C. Strack, of the firm of Hyde & Strack. Johnson Addition. has been connected with the rubber tire indus try for many years. having represented the Automobile Tire company of New York for ten years and for eight years was manager of the San Francisco and San Diego branches of the above company During his connection with this concern, who are jObbers in dii- feTent lines of tires. He has sold practically every standard make cn the market
 In speaking of the United States tires, Mir Stra6k says We nave chosen this line of tires because, un- der the most severe conditions it will give the utmost in mileage. My past experience with this make of tire proves this It is also the ideal tire for the Arizona roads; it will not cut or chip. having a tough and pliable tread. and is less inclined to wear than harder treads."
 The adjustments on United States tires are made at this firms sales room promptly, eliminating a waste of time and trouble to the consumer. Besides handling the United States tires and tubes this firm carries complete line of ioils, greases and auto supplies.

Here is one instance where patriot ism fears no distances, where the call of the United States has been heard even into the furthest recesses of the mountains, where horse and buggy and the trusty Tin Lizzie answer 10 the summons of the Red Cross, and the spirit of Americanism is reinforc- ed. born up, and magnified by the spirit of the pioneer. Here is enc in- stance of service which is beyond the personal-which is national. Here Is an instance of Red Cross appeal an swered despite weather, roads and distances.
 The instance is the Garces-Hereford Auxiliary of the Red Cross Society. It is the premier organization of Co- chise county-One Of the most pro- ductive and active, and one handi- capped by every natural and unnat- ural element.
 Distance Handicap
 Greatest of the handicaps of the Garces- Hereford chapter is distance. Eighty members have enrolled their names on the books of the chapter. They live at great distances from one another. They are scattered through out the San Pedro river valley and the Huachuca mountains. Good roads and bad roads lead from their homes to the valley, from the valley to Here ford. Five school districts, Carr, Garces. Hereford, Palomonas and Phil lips. are active in their attendance and work for the chapter. They tr.- vel sometimes as far as fifteen or twenty miles to attend the meetings and to 6O their share of the war work. Prosperous ranchers and cattle peo ple; homesteaders, squatters and ev- eryone who lives in the district unites in the work.
 Weekly meetings of the society are held at the most centrally located home Of the district which is included in the chapter. This is the home Of Mrs. G. J. McCabe, the chairman oi the chapter. At these weekly meet ings work which has been completed is received and prepared for shipment new and additional work is assigned members and materials are distrib- uted. This meeting is augmented by the regular monthly business meeting which is held at the home of Mrs. C. NJ. Johnson, acting secretary and treasurer, when the finances and other business of the chapter is at tended.
 Work is Varied
 Members of the chapter are doing an even more varied and interesting work than are many of the larger chapters of the county. including some in Hisbee and the Warren District Thirty members are knitting. and among the many articles which they have turned 'out are eye bandages mufflers, thumbless mittens, socks sweaters. wristlets. and helmets. One group of workers is making baby out

fits for the little tots of France and Belgium; another is making patch work comforts from hospital garment scraps-comforts for the beds of the French and Belgian wounded and for the hospitals of the American Red Cross units. Others are turning out bed socks. bed shirts, fracture pillows treasure bags, comfort kits, wash cloths, and similar articles so handy and valuable to the soldier in the trenches.
 Raise Some Funds
 During the past month the organi- Zation has raised approximately S6O for the purchase of supplies and other necessities through varied activities and through unlimited york and at tention. The largest sum was real ized from a dance given recently at the Garces school house. when S36.S5 was taken in and turned over to the chapters treasurer. A little later a club of young people at Hereford, stirred by the effortsof the chapter to do their share of the work assigned gave another dance. This added Slo to the treasury. A merchant within the radius of the chapters activities heard of their work and of their ef- forts to raise funds with which to prosecute the work. He immediately set up a fund for their benefit, and each cent which he made through the sale of old bottles was given the chapter. This has resulted in $S.SO more in the Auxiliary's treasure box.
 But activities do not end with the women. In the five school districts of Carr, Garces. Hereford, Palomonas and Phillips junicr auXiliaries have been organized. The young people are knitting five-inch squares, making scrap books, and clipping for ambu' lance pillows. The men and boys are actively interested and several have contributed to the efforts of the chap ter through the manufacture of canes from the mountain woods.
 Following is a list of articles made by the members and sent to the head quarters chapter during March:
 36 Knitted Eye Bandages
 15 Knitted Mufflers
 24 DTS. Knitted Thumbless Mittens
 20prs Knitted Socks

UNITED STATES HOLDS
DESTROYER RECORD
lRy limited Press. J

Washington, Dec. 13.-The United
States navy leads the world in de-
stroyers, built or building.
This information Rear Admiral
Griffin, chief Of bureau Of steam en-
gineering, gave the country today In
his annual report, recording achieve
ments of the past war year.
Much of the report is technical
but its substance is story OF success
in big things. With about 275 de-
stroyers building, Admiral Griffin
has this to say of the destroyer
standing:
"In ships built and building. the
United States has now larger force
of destroyers than that of any other
navy.
This increase has not been gradu-
al, but has been attained by giant
strides within a year. The difficult
ties encountered in such unprecen-
dented progress have no parallel IN
warship construction anywhere at
any time"

When the last $50 destroyers were
ordered, a 2Sknot speed was contem-
plated, but before contracts were let,
it was decided the speed should be
IS knots. This meant doubling the
amount Of forgings. Makers Of the
latter were far from keen to handle
the work, but the tasks were under
taken, even though an unprecedented
amount Of work already was under
way.
Actual expenditures of the bureau
for the fiscal year 1917 were estt-
mated at $49.536,093 whereas the
fiscal year 1918 expenditures were
$283,742,767. This represented
more than three quarters Of million

Griffin.

navy has about 210 radio stations.
Griffin reveals that 8 anti-sub-
marine devices were developed dur
ing the war, and that radio, tele-
graph and telephone apparatus for
communication with airplanes have
been remarkably developed.
Touching on oil land development,
the report makes this significant
comment on the California reserve:

past few years that unless legislation
is passed shortly the entire reserve
must be commandeered."
