inches in length, and gears much
lower, ranging from 81 to 90 inches.
me wheels were mostly 80 inches in
diameter. with u or Is inch solid
uses, while the weight ranged from
~ to on pounds, though racing ma
CHIMES were scaled down to rs or
even l8 pounds.
The riders of the Safety soon
round that there was considerable
vibration present in riding over even
talrily good roads. On the old high
Ordinary this vibration was not so
noticeable. as the large wheel not
only rolled more easily over the in
CAPABILITIES in the road but the nature
OF its construction gave it certain
amount OF spring, which absorbed
much OF the road shock before it
reached the rider. But when he de-
scended to the low Safety he found
that vibration became uncomfortably
noticeable. This led to the intro
duction of numerous varieties of
spring frames, spring forks and even
spring wheels.
Alter 1890, when the pneumatic
tire came into universal use, gen.
eral readjustment of frame design
took place. Lighter tubing and bet
ter methods of connecting the vari-
Gus frame parts together came in.
The crank hanger became an inte-
gral part of the frame; heretofore it
mad been separate part which
was bolted on to the frame so as to
swing or slide forward or back in
order to adjust the chain. The
Humber machine was probably the
first to come out with the long wheel
base, straight tube diamond frame
as we know it to-day.
A backward glance through the
Advertising pages of trade papers of
l69z shows that there was still a
wide diversity in frame design, j
though all were of the diamond type.
The Century Columbia had two par
allel top tubes running from the rear
axle with a bend at the seat post
to the head; the rest of the frame 4
was the regular short wheel-base
diamond. The Victor frame was a
double diamond composed of small
tubes with the exception of the top
tube which was single, or larger d.
ameter. The front sproclcet was in
side of the double frame with out
side bearings, which was the best
feature OF this machine. It also re-
aimed the Victor spring fork. The
Rambler. had compact diamond
spring frame with a small front
wheel. These were the leading
American machines of that period.
From 1893 onward the makers |
settled down to the Humber type |
diamond frame, which was very sim
lar to the modern design except
hat the top tube sloped upward to
| long head. American makers soon
altered this detail and by 1895 the
diamond frame may be said to have
cached its final form. 4
During the bicycle boom of the
middle COS the machine became
greatly improved and refined in
very detail. The frame was made
lighter, yet stronger, the strains and |
stresses to which it was subjected
we're determined by tests conducted
~ engineers and cientists-manv
If the big makers maintained labora-
cries for testing and improving
very part of the bicycle-and its
aults accordingly corrected.

1t is the privilege and pleasure of The Times today to
sound the call for the annual gathering of Good Fellows
Christmas this year is going to be Merry Christmas
indeed Gadness reigns in almost every home The little
rich fellers all fixed Their folks have all kinds of
money to buy them popcorn and gumdrops and toy auto
mobiles and tin soders and everything But the little
feers and girls the other side of town won be so
happy Christmas morning if they wake up and find
nothing in their ragged little stockings but the holes
That is where the Good Fellow comes in He doesn
have to be convinced He knows wherever the children
live in the crowded districts there is work for him to do and
that there will be thousands of empty stockings right here
underthe shadow ofhe Capitol dome if his
measure up to his prosperity.
On the surface there appears to be more prosperity this
than BEFORE less poverty less unemployment less
suffering The lists of charitable organizations are shorter
That the surface aspect but little probing shows that
it is only surface.
The thing that upsets the calculations is that old High
Cost of Living thing There dozens and dozens of clean
orderly homes Washington where the of one work
ing member of the family will only supply meat and bread
and rent 1t leaves nothing to give the kids Christ
treat
And there homes of the very very poor where maybe
sickness has entered The Associated Charities will see to
bring Kris Kringle down the chimney-THATS THE PAR
TICULAR TASK OF THE GRAND ARMY OF GOOD
FELLOWS.
The Times is going to act liason between the Good
Fellow and the poor little feler and his sister over in the
crowded district 1t is going to point out the places where
you make happy family of children or old folks
