would be simple matter for the com
rades" to keep in touch with each other
aboard the ship, to elect their leader
and at a given signal seize the Off

The officers of the ship, under this
scheme, would be forced to navigate
the vessel into Il Russian port, where,

PROPER HANDLING
OF BRAKES AN ART
Sudden Application a Shock to
Entire Machine as Well as
Failure in Stopping Car.

Thousands of tires are destroyed
each year by severe and sudden appl-
cation of the brakes. One application
often scrapes and grinds the tread rub =
Der off entirely and renders the casing
beyond repair. Some valuable hints
on brake application are offered by the
Diamond Rubber company, which has
instituted more mileage campaign for
tire users.
Both new and experienced drivers are
guilty of the misuse of foot and emer-
gency brakes. Locking the wheels will
not, in all instances, Immediately halt
the car; the momentum and weight
very often cause the rear wheels to
slide along considerable distanse and
gouge off the ead-rubber until the
fabric Is barred and ruptured How
ever, IL the damage has not been too
great the owner may still save his tire
by giving 1t early attention to protect
the fabric from decay and weakening
erect of moisture and to prevent dirt
from working under the rubber. The
inside of the casing should be carefully
inspected and any threads or plies of
fabric broken from the strain should
be repaired.
Quick, sharp turns or fast driving at
curves usually causes rear wheels to
slide and skid sideways. This practice
Will wear off the tread rubber rapidly
and is extremely harmful to the fabric
body of the tire because of the abnor-
NAL stress and strain.
To make certain that both brakes
take hold evenly, the rear axle should
be lacked up so that neither wheel
rests on the ground; then start engine
and engine cluch. If, when foot brake
is applied, one rear wheel revolves
while the other remains stationary, or
II one wheel turns faster than the
other, excessive wear to the tread rub
Der of the wheel turning sloNest may
be expected. This will continue unless
the brake drums are evenly adjusted
The clutch plays an important part
In the efficiency of the car and in the
performance of the tires. 1t should be
kept in such roder that at all times il
will take hold evenly when gears are
engaged. Car owners quickly avoid
letting in the clutch quickly while the
engine is running fast: such treatment
Is damaging to both car and tires.
Another common practice that is
disastrous to tires is spinning the driy-
ing wheels in mud, snow or on slip
perry pavements. This not only grinds
off tread rubber but very often snags
the surface along the entire wheel cir
conference.

COMING ANNIVERSARY
OF PNEUMATIC AUTO TIRE

The Micheleu Tire company is al
ready making preparations for the 25th
anniversary of the introduction of the
worlds first pneumatic automobile tire
back in 1895.
Accustomed as the world is to pneu-
matte tires it is difficult to under
stand why Michelu's earliest efforts
met with such adverse criticism. In
1895 the Michelin Tire company had
been making detachable pneumatic hi
cycle tires for -four years when Ed
Guard Michelin. head of the House of
Michelin, built the first pneumatic
tire which in his judgment was sturdy
enough to bear the weight of ain auto
mobile. That was when automobiles
were first making their appearance
at a time when such cars as We're in
existence We're running on iron tires
or perhaps a few on solid rubber tire
When Mr.. Michelin approached the
leaders of the automobile industry of
the day with the suggestion that they
equip their cars with his projected tire
he was laughed to scorn. They re-
garded the idea as preposterous not
seeing how any vehicle as heavy as an
automobile could be supported on air.
They branded Mr.. Michelins invention
as a madman's fancy.
IT was necessary for Mr.. Michelin

himself to build an automobile in or
der to demonstrate the practicability
of his tire. This he did, and entered
the car in the Paris Bordeaux race Of
1895. While the iron-tired cars were
humping over the road and coming to
grief because of excessive vibration the
Michelin- equipped car raced along al
a speed undreamed of at that time.
The pneumatic automobile had ar
rived. 1t sprang into recognition over
night. The invention that had been
derided only the day before was now
lauded to the skies.
Largely because the practicability of
the first Michelin tire had been dem
onstrated in a race the House of Mich
elm long retained it's interest in auto
mobile racing. This connection be-
tween ,Michelin and automobile racing
prodr I'D many other advances in au-
tomobile and tire development.
The worlds first demountable rim
(another Michelin inVention) was in
troduced to the public in an automo-
bile race. Naturally the car equipped
with this first demountable rim had a
tremendous advantage over all com
petitors and finished far in the lead
Imagine the surprise of racers and on
lockers when the first tire change was
made by removing tire and rim at the
same time,

DRY GOODS USER OF
TIRES PUTS QUERIES

Big business houses are giving close
