LIBERTY LOANS
 CAUSE PROSPERITY
People Buying Bonds for First Time Distributing
 Wealth Over Country

If anyone. had made the claim five years ago that it would be possible to increase bond holders from few thou sands to as many millions in the course of few years, he would have been char acterized as ranting visionary is the statement of Vice President R. c. Rues- chaw of the Mitchell Motors Co, Inc, of Racine, Wis,
 But the war has taught us many things not the least of which is that the people of the United States are capable of adapting themselves quickly to changing conditions as shown by the way so many of them have entirely changed their methods of handling their earnings to absorb the bonds of the country.
 Another point not to be overlooked in considering the effect of war loans on business is the peculiar fact reported by all banks that in the face of vast sums of money put into Liberty Bonds, bank deposits have increased rather than de- creased, showing that the habit of thrift when once born is not confined to the purchasa of bonds, but extends to savings deposits, purchases of mortgages and oth- CT securities, etc"
 Naturally, with these conditions there is a good deal of money in circulation and business booms when that Is the case. We know that the automobile ln- dustry has felt a very pronounced ouXlGS impulse from this source"
 For example. there are hundreds Of thousands of families who few years ago. would have thought that any kind of an automobile was far beyond their means who are today driving cars;S and in many cases they are not the cheapest cars, but generally those which offer the greatest value for the price. Invest ment in Liberty Bonds has shown them the way to lay the money by and when they had it they were not backward ahout buying those things on which they had set their hearts"
 Under any circumstances with so much ssoney available, there would be ten dency on the part of the nation to spend some of it. Now with the feeling of elation with the winning of the war coupled with the easing of the war ten sion, that tendency to spend is in creased.' "So people are spending money They are buying homes, they buy good furni-

UNITED STATES TIRES

Show Splendid Form on Hundreds of Motor
 Trucks

Treat 'en rough was what the colonel of the truck convoy told Us to give the truck tires, and we sure did for over 5000 miles over the shelI-pitted roads up at the front in France, but the United States truck tires on 100 F. W. D. SA- ton trucks stood the gaff without one bit of trouble, and when l left France last December the truck tires looked good for another 5000 miles
 That is what former capt. Thomas Shurtleff of Tacoma thinks of United States truck tires.
 T was in charge of a convoy of 200 trucks which made the trip back and forth from Bordeaux to fingers" con tinued Shurtleff, who was one of the first of the boys from the Pacific coast to go lover there Shurtleff was with Com psny E of the Fifty-seeond Ammunition Train of the coast artillery corps.
 we had to get that ammuEition mighty quick to the big guns hammering away up at the front. and many times truck was in continuous service for z hours without the motor stopping. so you see the truck tires had to make good for the colonel in charge would not use any make which hadn't proved it's worth.

STUDEBAKER AGAIN FIRST IN YOSEMITE
For Fourth Consecutive Year Stakeholder Leads
 Way Into Famous Valley

To the Studebaker Big Six belongs the honor of again being the initial automo- bile to enter the Yosemite valley this season, making the fourth year that the trophy has been captured by Studebaker car.
 A. c. Pillsbury of San Francisco pri- vate owner, was at the wheel, and the trip was made via Merced Mariposa and Wawona According to the report of the drive made by Pillsbury to Fl. A. Biggs, general sales manager of the Studebaker corporation there wasn't much snow thls spring to buck, but many fallen trees which blocked the roadway had to be dynamited away in order to make sut- icient room for the car to pass by.
 Fiiisbury states that he counted 5S deer on the way to the park and that the weather was fine and the trip ideal in every respect. Not a particle of trouble was had with the Studebaker Big Six Tn crossing the streams which flowed across the road due to the melting of snow in the mountains. The steep grades also were easily negotiated with the power which nestles underneath the hood of the new Stakeholder model
 The speedometer showed 2s6 miles at the conclusion of the run in front of the chiet rangers office on the floor of the fose- mite valley.
 Superintendent Lewis, in charge of the national park, as well as Chief Ranger Townsley, confirmed the arrival of the Pillsburg car i'll telegram to MT BEES, notifying the Studehaker sales manager of the victory achieved.
 Although the road into the valley va Wanfona is now open and is reported to be iii excellent condition for touring, when Pillsbury made the run 1t was SUI n bad shape, as the gang was nard a al work removing all the obstacles and fill ing in the ruts and building the water breaks, so as to put the road into me shape for the spring motor travel into the famous resort.
