TRA|LER|Z|NC FORD
 TRULY PROFITABLE

@Only a small part of the available power in the Ford engine is used to move the car" states c. Winfield Hart ranft, local distributor of Utility trail- CTS. This is perhaps one of the se- crets of the ability of the Ford to travel over the toughest of roads and up steep grades. A means, however, of using a small part of the power which lies idle in the motor has been found by the use of a trailer in con- nection- Many Ford owners have con- verted their Ford car into st light deliv- cry truck by the attachment of good two wheeled trailer.
 There are many instances where such an outfit displaces the use of a light delivery truck.
 The two-wheeled models now turned out by the Los Angeles Trailer company have many improvements They are balanced in construction so that they will operate either light or heavily loaded without the slightest sidesway or wobble. The frame and side members are of angle iron with corners strongly reinforced with steel angle plates, while the cross sills are or heavy channel iron riveted to the side members. The springs are four point suspension, the rear end having a free sliding base which acts as a shock absorber, preventing rebound.
 With 8 two-wheeled trailer the Ford owner can handle light hauling and save the investment. of a light truck. Likewise, the owner of Ford truck, by using one of thse trailers, can handle loads which would ordinar- fly necessitate the use of a much heavier truck. Tradesmen, transfer men, and farmers in particular, find this mode of hauling the most eco nomical from every standpoint"

APACHE GARACE. ] |NSTALLS LATE ]. ELECTRIC SIGN

Fred Tregaskes, proprietor of the Apache Garage on Adams street, is in- stallng a large electric sign on the cor nice of his building that will direct au- tomobile owners to the place where they can get tire service in the wee sma' hours" of the morning.
 Tregaskes, who is local dealer on Firestone tires, has received from the t1restone company a splendid electric sign of the most modern type. This sign has been shipped from the Nsw York branch of the Firestone com- pany, where it has been in service for short time
 We are open night and day" says Tregaskes, and any man caught out late. at night with tire trouble should know that we are prepared to take care of him in the most efficient manner. We have on Eand a complete stock of Firestone fabric tires and cords, inso- far as we have been able to get our orders filled by the F1restone company, whcth is having a strenuous. time to keep up with orders.
 The demands we have been asked to meet on cord tires, for instance. have taxed us to the limit. Take 32x4. 33x4 and S4x4h cord tires, for instance. We have had a large order in with the factory for these sizes and get one at a time, although the factory is running night and day. However, the factory has promised to take care of us to the best of their ahiiity, and we hope 10 have plenty of each size in the very near future"

EAR FARES RAISED; ] TIRE SALES BULGE.

? According to J. Webb Smith of the Firestone factory branch in Phoenix and manager of the company's busi-y ness in Northern Arizona, when street car fares were increased last month in Boston to 10 cents the sur face lines were collecting 900,O00 fares daily, according to newspaper esti- mates.
 AS a result of the increase, traffic fell off one-third, or to 600.000 fares. What became of the lost traffic. or S0o000 fares daily, is now becoming evident. Smith says that the Firestone Tire & Rubber Company of Akron re- ported a stimulated demand for bicycle tires already in evidence. The old Bike" has been brought out of the at tic or woodshel and retired. Many prospects who have been hesitatins ever the purchase of an automobile have decided to buy. while people of less means have turned to the bicycle. Eventually there will be revealed in Boston and other cities of the country m which carfares are raised an in creased consumptoin of footwear, &C., cording to commercial forecasters. The Hickles and dimes of those who have neither bicycles nor automobiles win be spent for shoes. I

FAULTY ALIGNMENT


 On the tire in the accompanying illustra- tion you will note the tread is worn to the fabric This is very common condition, and is caused by the wheels being run out of line. It usually occurs on the front wheels affecting both tires alike, although sometimes one tire only is affected. Im- proper adjustment of the steering appar- atus, or bent knuckle or axle is responsi- ble. Under either of these conditions the tread will wear away in remarkably short time.
 In one special instance after an axle had been slightly bent, as result of an accident. the two front tires were worn entirely through, and the inner tubes blew out in the short space of fifty miles. The wearing off of the treads, of course, will be in pro. portion to the seriousness of this condition. It sometimes is so slight as to make the wearing off of the treads almost imper- ceptible.
 It is to be assumed that all cars are received from the manufacturer in perfect alignment, but after being run while, the steering gear, if not watched very closely. is apt to become affected To aid this steering, the front wheels are permitted tb "toe in'' just little, but if allowed to do so to any marked degree, this condition is bound to result
 As a matter of precaution, the motorist should have reliable garage man inspect the wheel alignment of his car at regular intervals.

THE MODERN scHooL

T tlE m06EhN 0O1OOL
 The trend in education these days is to give the scholars something prac- tical, something of distinct benefit to them in battling their way through life and in making that battle easier and happier. Consequently we can ex- pect the establishment of such prac- tical courses as these in the most up- to-date schools:
 Course in Pstience--Dssigned to give scholars that smiling a,cquiescense in delay which is so necessary to the maintenance of good disposition when attempting to reach the office in a hurry via automobile at con- gested traffic periods of the day.
 Course in Higher Aceounting-Of great value to every coming citizen who will some day have to make out an income tax return. This course combines all the latest methods adopt ca by the worlds most expert &C., countants and after taking this course for six years it is believed that every scholar will be able to make out his own income tax return with an average of less than seventy five per cent of mistakes.
 Course in Self DeniaI-Designed to help the scholars over the possibility of Anti Tobacco, Anti-Kissing, Anti Soda Water and other blue laws being enacted. Scholars are taught, by the simple method of making them do without meals, nice clothes, sleep and other essentials, just how to control themselves so that they will not feel an uncomfortable desire to violate these laws and be arrested for such violations in the vent of these laws being passed.
 Course in Jolts-Realizing that every citizen in the course of life gets good stiff jolt every week or so now adays when a new raise in the high cost of living wallops him or another of his pet hobbies is eliminated by some new Anti law, this course is designed to enable the scholars to not only stand up under such jolts but to also grin while they bear them. Swift upper cuts every few minutes to the jaw, knockout blows to the head and other equally effective joltis are A part of the curriculum in this course.
 Course in Nuttiness--As everyone. to be strictly up-t date nowadays must be able to talk fluently on inc principal topics of nuttiiiess enrar- ing the worlds attention, this course will teach the rudimentslry foolish- ness of bolshevism and such other crazy notions as from time to time sweep over the earth.

MILTON HEROES HOME
AFTER DARING WORK

Fresh from the battIeficIds OF

Milton this week with thrilling expert
ences to relate TO their many friends,
says the Milton Eagle. While Mr.
Carrick was not afforded the oppor-
tunity Of being on the firing line his
desires TO be IN the thickest OF the
fight are apparent His work con-
sisted chiefly of s. o. s. duty and the
last few months were occupied at
truck driving. Mr.. Clark and Mr.. Da-
kin were In the thickcst of the fight
and relate some thrilling experiences.
Mr.. Dakin Is wearing the distinguish
ed service cross for an act OF bravery
when he and another soldier on Sep
tember 26 responded to call for vol
unteers TO locate and capture IL pos
siblc, Hun machine gun nest. The
location OF the enemy was made un-
der extreme difficulties, few Huns
killed and the location reported to the
commanding officer. This is one of
the many encounters Mr.. Dahin ex-
perienced while on the fighting front.
James Clark was "over the top"
many times and was in the thickest of
the fight, spending 103 days In the
Toul sector.
The three young men came back
without a scratch and are glad indeed
to have the opportunity of setting
foot on American soil.
