 To Ranchers of Salt River Valley to Join in Fund to Honor Roosevelt Memory

q know all about Roosevelt, and here is my dollar" said Ewes Tall e:hiet, a middle-ased Indian, to Mrs. Fred Adams, in charge of the booth at Central avenue and Adams street, yesterday afternoon.
 Tallehief, with long hair in hraids, silver bracelets upon his wrists, and with a rich blanket thrown gracefully about his tall form, stood silent for a moment before Mrs. Adams, wh., thinking he did not understand English, did not ask him for a subscription to the Roosevelt memorial. Then he stepped up to her and bowed. She was surprised when he addressed her in perfect English:
 Roosevelt was a great and good American. He did much for the people. We must keep his memory green and carry on his work. He

BURGLARS DISCRIMINATE

Again the discriminating burglar this time in Cleveland. He is popping up all over the country, and though he may not always be the same person he shows in every case the same discrim- mating judgment. In Cleveland few nights ago, this burglar broke the lock of large tire store and took away a truck load of United States tires.

 BARNEY MEANT I
Gives Whole Attention to Rapid Expansion of His
 New Business

Cleveland, September 13.--When it became known in motordom's inner circle here that Barney Oldfield had de- clined to even consider series of match races with Eddie Rickenbacker -an offer which according to the pro- Inoter who made itN embodied the lars- est cash guarantee ever promised the veteran in his entire driving career even the most skeptical of Barny's friends admitted that his retirement from racing must be considered as final
 Had there been any lure which could have brough the newly established tire magnate back into competition on the race tracks which knew him So well. the proposed Rickenbacker series would have done so. But Barney am swered the promoters offer without hesitation and with the air of a man whose mind has been made up beyond the possibility of change.
 No chance" declared the former "Old Master" as soon as the promoter had outlined his proposal. 'Too busy" T doubt if you can get Rickenbacker: know you can't get me. There are three or four reasons why I can't consider racing again, but the best one is. I haven't got time.
 "The day came when had to choose between racing and business, and the choice was for keeps. The business opening was one I'd planned on for a good many years. It came and I chose. It is the wisest move I ever made in my life. Not for moment can I con slider reversing myself"

SPEED FACTOR OF
 SAFETY IS CLAIM
Remarkable Advance of the Past Few Years Given
 as Reason

"A quick getaway is not an ornamen- tai virtue but motor necessity for modern traffic conditions" said Charles Denegre, local dealer for the Apper- son. "The car that lags on the accelera- tion is not only a nuisance, but endan- gers the driver. Speed is a factor of safety.
 'The Apperson Eight was built with the growing congestion of traffic condi- tions in mind. Hence the marvellous Ap- person acceleration, from one mile an hour to 40 in 20 seconds. When the cop at the crossing blows his whistle the Ap- person is off in flash and whizzing down the straight way, while slower cars are getting up momentum. Speed is often thought of as an ele- ment of danger in a car, but speed under
 control is a big factor of safety. As
 matter of fact, good drivers escape countless accidents by a sudden spurt of speed-quicl1 acceleration-when caution, in sense of deliberation, would have been disastrous.
 "The reason for not only the comfort but for the necessity of speed under con- trol is plain from still another angle. If all drivers were like you and me, of ] course there would never be any acci- dents. But we've got to include ciie other fellow in our driving calculations He 1 is often reckless, and when we give him l two thirds of the road he tries to take l three-fourths Quick thinking, backed by ! quick action, and half the time that means quick acceleration. is then our

FOOTBALL SHOES
 GIVE TREAD DESIGN
Old Gridiron Star Develops Ajax Cord Pattern From
 Relics of College Days

An interesting story of the development cS she tread design of the Ajax Cord Tire was related recently by Horace DeLisser, p~esiHent of Ajax Rubber company, Inc. The tread of the Ajax Cord, known as the Ajax Cleated Tread, has met with high favor among tire users and Mir De- Lisser's narrative of how it was de- veloped, reveals some of the reasons TOT its enthusiastic reception.
 Among certain of the old and treas ured possessions of one of the Ajax en- gineer-destgners is a worn and battered pair of football shoes. In days gone by these 'brogans'' served their wearer we'll They shot their owner in many & memorable college gridiron contest This Ajax engineer-designer some years ago was among the foremost football stars of his time. His line plunging ability. his speed in skirting the ends and his exceptional cleverness at lodging in an open field, won him renown and caused him to be talked about wherever football fans and players gathered.
 '~rhis chap had worked for weeks on a design for the tread of the Ajax cord, MT DeLisser related. Many patterns were worked out, but none quite met the standard which we sought
 And then one night at home the biz idea dawned. Out came the old foot ball shoes, and the former star got busy.

MILLER TIRES MADE REGULAR EQUIPMENT

The growing demand for Miller Uni form tires by automobile buyers and in- creased production facilities are the reas- ons given by officials of the Miller Rub- Der company of Akron for the many car manufacturers standard equipment ders that the company has taken on this year Between 25 and 30 car manufac- turers now use Millers as regular equip ment, and many others will furnish them upon specification.
 Our Uniform mileage feature is most popular with manufacturers as well as with consumers" says F. C. Mill hoff, general sales manager of the Mil Ter company. Many buyers having learned of the service rendered by Millers have insisted that their cars come equipped with the Uniform mileage tires. When lot of requests of this nature come in the manufacturers sit up and take notice. The result is that we have been more or less beseged by the car makers this year.
 orner reas.on for the manufacturers taking on Miller equipment is that they must be very particular and careful in the selection of tires for their product. In spite of the fact that strictly speak ing, they are simply selling the motor car, it is obvious that the service ren- dered by the tires has lot to do with the satisfaction the car renders the con sumer. If the tires stand up we'll and give unusual mileage, they reflect fav- orably on the car. If they fail at low mileage and put the motorist to lot of unnecessary expense, the consum CT is more than likely to be pitted against both car and the make of tires with which the car is equipped. All shrewd motor car men realize that the better returns they give on their customers invest 1 ments the more profitable their business will be in the end That is why so many 1 of them are equipped with Millers. | Furthermore, the unlimited guarantee proposition of the Miller Rubber com

an athletes shoes The comparison is made advisedly, for the cleats on the Ajax Cord are a scientific application of the same principle that has put the cleats on the football players shoes
 Those cleats make it possible for the man in moleskins to start quickly, the instant the ball is snapped. Those cleats on the Ajax Cord perform the self-same service. Cleats make the runners foot ing sure. He stops in a flash. to dodge right or left. He starts again at top speed. The cleats grip the ground The runner never slips He seldoms fal- ters.
 And so it is with the Ajax. Cleated Tread. The cleats grip the road They take hold at just the proper moment. Your car may swerve to right or left, yet the cleats give sure footing. When brakes are applied the cleats permit an instantaneous stop. A quick start is certain the moment the clutch is disen- gagged.
 "The football season is approaching. At any of the big games this fall at the Army Navy match at the Polo grounds, or at any of the great contests east ~ west watch the athletes as they dash and dodge up and down the gridiron. The value of the Ajax Cleated Tread will make itself apparent"

pany is also popular among the car manufacturers. They argue that it is no more logical to guarantee tires for a definite limited mileage than 1t would be to guarantee that car would run 92.745 miles or some such figure. What they want is tire of real merit, backed up by company of solid stand ing, a company that can always be de- pended on to make a fair adjustment on the basis of inspection in quality or construction irrespective of the number of miles the tire> has run. And that s the Miller policy"
