In spite of the fact that influenza
recurs in modern times every 20 TO 30
years in explosive waves, spreading
with the rapidity of an express train
over the land and with the speed Of
an ocean liner on the sea and around
the globe, there has never been an
intelligent preparedness for the cpl
demic, nor suitable measures taken
before or after the attack. This
endemic has differed from those that
have gone before in that the largest
percentage of victims were from 20 20
80 years of age, with fewer victims in
advanced years. In the first place, no
one should be alarmed by the approach
of the epidemic. All should, however,

Gradually, step by STEP the eternal feminine has made
persistent nroads into what formerly considered man

The result is that today auto manufacturers, coach

The vastly improved starting devices and simplicity
of mechanism for controlling have caused an increas

Ne Total Figures Compared.
This showing 10 made with no ate
tempt to compare total figures be-
tween the two types OF truck, for
this description OF an actual test on
q big scale is. not given as a brief
for the pneumatic tire truck under
all conditions, but Is merely q set
Of figures and description OF condi-
tions to show that there II to every
user q problem worth considering
In the use OF the pneumatic-tired
truck.
These figures, however, It must be
noted. make no attempt to consider
the difference in initial costs Of the
tires, Eolid and pneumatic, or the re-
pair items to the tires themselves.
These clements are open for consid-
era!Ion only to the prospective pur-
chaser, who must use his own judg-
Dient as to the balancing for his par
ticulAr uses, Of the saving on the
machine due to the use Of the air
cushioned tire, and the difference in
initial cost of the two types OF tire.
It must be noted that the navy was
willing to buy hIEh-cost diversified
tires for its experiments, and this 10
an expense that many truck users
may not feel justified in assuming, for
their particular type of business.
It might be pertinent here to make
references to the need Of proper care
OF even the solid tire in the operation
OF truck feet. 1t Is q proved fact
that care Of the solid tire IL essential
In redeeming rubber costs, and in
maintaining the tire over q long
period. Particularly Is care due to
the dual type Of tire, for it is a trick
Of the dual tire to pick up sharp bits
Of broken rock between the tires, in
the crevice, and these stones will
soon hack the rubber to shreds.
The most careful use Of any tire
will not prevent an occasional cut.
The army rule for tire inspection
was that the driver must pare down
with a sharp knife any torn bit OF
tire, to prevent the tear from work
ing deeper into the rubber and there
by making the entire tire valueless
and aIwreck. This little item will,
IL not cared for, run up tire costs
amazingly.

MODERN WOMAN
IS AUTO-TAMER

"The Tanning of the Auto" is not
the name of a new Broadway sue
cess, but rather indicates the latest
role in which we find the women Of
today.
In these days when we hear so
much Of Woman's Suffrage and other
important economic matters into
which the American woman is finally,
with right. coming into her own, it
is interesting to note the place she
today occupies, in so far as the auto
mobile is concerned.
Perhaps no phase of the motor in
dustry has been more exploited or
fraught with more Importance to the
social life of the nation than this
flaming of The Auto"
It is neither fair nor ethical to as
sert that the modern automobile is
so thoroughly simple in its control
and ease of driving that a child,
without difficulty, can learn to run
IL.
However, il is a truism worthy OF
deep masculine reflection that mi
lady has made it her business to
master the driving of a car.
In this particular regard, the APP
person Brothers-those pioneer mo-
torcar builders of Kokomo, Ind.-as-
sert they are marketing a machine
which has had a great deal to do
with the final success of the woman
driver.
First the Apperson appeals to
women because Of its attractive lines
and stylish dress, 1t being the prod
uct of the best that the New YORK
trends afford. O..
Then, on account Of its ease OF
control. it makes friends easily with
the fairer sex as it is no trouble to
tame it so 1t does whatever milady
Wills.
The Apperson can be turned in a
circle measuring only 3SA feet. Be-
cause of this short turning radius
II is easy to handle in getting in and
out from curbs on city streets and
in turning around on country roads.

Value of Pneumatic Tires
Greater Than Solid Type

, case of travel, with the picking up
by the tire of the jolting of the
vehicle which would otherwise have
to be taken by the machine itself,
with a consequent shaking and de-
probation OF the engine, spring
shackles, bolts and leaves, steering
mechanism, and even the transmits
sion and rear mechanism.
Air Tires Use Less Fuel.
The inspection constantly made in
the course of this experiment, showed
that the pneumatic tire picked much
OF the damaging vibration. 1t was
found that owing to smOothness of
operation the air tired truck was able
60 operate more miles to the gallon
OF fuel than the truck with the solid
tire. The repair and depreciation
item was probably the most impor-
tRnt OF the four items in which the
pneumatic tired truck showed
superiority.
The gain in this element was such
as to make a cost expense OF half
the cost of the solid tire truck This
Is entirely q case of the picking up
by the air cushioned tire of the vi
bration which otherwise would wear
down bearings in the vehicle.
The operating radius, owing to
smoother negotiations OF the roads
by the air-tired truck was extended
over the possibility Of the solid tire
vehicle. The trucks operating on
solid tires-these being OF a three
ton capacity-took eight hours for
the run into Chicago, from the Naval
Training Station. The pneumatic
tired truck of the same type and
the same operating and cargo con-
ditions cut this time over an hour.
The pneumatic trucks were occa-
sionally able to haul to camp, and
out Of trouble. the solid tire trucks,
which had difficulty in operating, or
were actually stuck In snow-covered
