As it may interest quite few peo- pie to know how much the days have heightened, the daily gain, etc, we hereby append the following figures: Since Dec. 22, thes hortest day till Jan 25, the days have heightened ? hours 16 minutes and 20 seconds. On Dec. 22 the sun rose at 9:59 49 a. m. and set at 2:00:38 D. m.; on Jan 25, the sun rises at 9:05:55 a. m. and set at 3:23:04 D. m. The interval from sunrise to sunset on Dec 22 was 4 hours and 49 seconds and on Jan 25 it is 5hours 2 minutes and 9 seconds and the daily gain at he present date is minutes and 9 seconds. This daily gain varies in amount from a few seconds close to the solstice to minutes and AZ seconds around the spring equinox. The times of sunrise and sunset are determined by solving the spherical triangle in which the latitude of the place, the suns polar distance and the suns latitude are given. The tables given in an ordi- nary almonac are valueless for high latitude, since the time of rising and setting depend upon the latitude of the place, and the almanacs published outside are caculated for attitudes from 30 to 45 degres north A table for latitude 641S Chat of Nome) was calculated for and published in the Worker some years ago.

Bernard J Neilly while on his way to Sinrock on business for the Bur reau of Education had a narrow es- cape from freezing. Being overtaken by severe blizzard while travelling between Cape Rodney and Sinrock, Nelly concluded to pass the night where he was, in his sleeping bag On arising the next morning he was unable to persuade his dogs to start the blizzard still raging fiercely and it being extremely cold. Spending another day and night in his sleep ing bag he found on arising the next mornig that three of his dogs had frozen to death and that his hands were badly frost bitten. Leaving his dog team he returned to an old cabin near Cape Rodney where he was found by Chris Gudmanson who was on his way to Nome with sick native woman. Gudmanson unable to carry Nelly to Nome himself, informed the authorities in Nome of the plight MT Nelly was in immediately upon his arrival here.
 A dog team was dispatched to bring MT Nelly back to Nome. It was found when he arrived here that both of his hands were badly frostbitten, but that he has suffered no other injuries

MT M. o. Solberg Territorial Game Warden returned to Nome from a trip to Sinrock on business connected with his office. He stated that he en- countered extremely cold weather and raging blzzards while up the coast.
 The ptarmigan were conspicuous by their absence, and the people at Sinrock Mission were living on fish and canned meats, no fresh meat was to be had, even reindeer meat being for one reason or another not to be procured. H stated that quite a num- Der of dogs which presumably be- longed to deceased natives were found in a pitiable condition. Seven of them that were chained up by their owners are reported to have succumb- ed to the cold and starvation, while one had become fast in fox trap and unable to, extricate himself there from was found wandering with the trap still attached to his leg, around the tundra, He was speedily put out of his misery.
 Many fox traps were found set in place by MT Solberg where owing to their proximity to the trail danger ex- sisted of dogs belonging to mushers being caught therein. All such traps found were removed by MT Solberg.

Syracuse, N. Y.-Construction Of a
new half million dollar addition to its
present works, opening of another large
building as body factory, leasing of
many thousand square feet of additional
storage space, and the immediate en-
ployment Of one night shift Of 500 men
with the possible addition OF another,
are changes set in motion today by the
Franklin Automobile company.
This tremendous expansion policy is
the result of determined effort to lift
the production Of Franklin cars to keep
pace with the increasing demand and to
a point where the yearly output will be
$4,000 completed cars, or one car about
every seven minutes of each working
day.
Ground was broken today for the new
seven story, reinforced concrete manu-
featuring building, an addition to the
present works, as the first step in the
expansion program. The actual building
operations will cost 100000, exclusive
of any equipment and the contractors
have tackled a tremendous construction
problem in agreeing to have the build
ing ready for occupancy before Janu-
lry /.
The other expansion changes, already
under way, include the leasing this week
for long term of six-story manufac-
turing building near the Franklin works,
where work will be begun Immediately

TIRE COMP AIRED
TO HUMAN BODY
Expert Says There Does Exist
Close Analogy Between
These Two.

That there is a close analogy between
an automobile tire and the human oody
is the statement of one Of the technical
experts on the staff Of the United
States Tire company. The carcass OF q
tire may be compared to the bones; the
tread and side walls to the skin, While
initiation pressure is to tire what tood
is to the body.
When you cut yourself you are care
full to wash out the injury and to pro-
tect it from infection until it heals. A
cut in tire should be just as carefully
looked after because neglect. wall be toi.
lowed BY infection" in the form OF
sand blisters leading to separation and
finally death in the form OF a blow
out.
Breaks in the carcass Of tire re-
quire same attention as broken bone;
The breaks must be repaired and
"splints, in the form of sectional v.ll-
canized inset, applied in order to rein
force the broken part.
If you did not continually furnish
your body with food to replace that USED
up by digestive processes you would
soon die A tire requires a certain in
flation pressure to enable It to carry
its load. Digestion in the form OF
leaky valve, diffusion thru the inner
tube, etc, slowly uses Il pthis pressure
and if it is not continually replaced the
tire soon breaks along the flexlng lines
and dies thru a blowout

WHEELS
TO BE AVOIDED
Many Catastrophies Among Au-
to Drivers Due to This Care
less Neglect.

Prevention Of accident is the ever
present duty Of all motorists. The driver
should be always vigilant to prevent
disaster Careful driving is, of course
the first consideration, the idea being to
always avoid risk.
Next comes the maintenance of the
car in good condition This requires
frequent inspection, especially of the
wheels. Wheel trouble is too frequently
overlooked and the condition of the
spokes neglected. Loose spokes make the
cur unsafe in sudden emergencies, with
terrible results in some cases
The first indication of loose spokes
are squeeks and paint cracks where the
spokes join at the hub or rim. The
cracks show that the wood has shrunk
If not attended to promptly the spokes
work looser, till the stability of the
wheel is seriously impaired. Then, at
critical moment, the wheel collapses
The motorist should always take time
to see that the wheels of his car are in
good running order, for still other
reasons. 1t is much easier and less ex-
pensive to correct defects in their early
stages than later on Again. unsound and
insecure wheels cause all other parts Of
the car to deteriorate more rapidly than
they would otherwise If the wheels do
not run true, the tires soon wear out,
the chassis is warped out Of shape, and
the motor rests Weakens SO that the
mechanism works under unnecessary and
ruinous strain.
Neglected wheels soon reduce a car
to condition of useless junk, whereas
q. little care as occasion demands adds
greatly to its life, pleasure and security.

new idea GIVEN
TRUCKING WORLD
Inventive Genius Overcomes the
Difficulties Hampering Use
of Giant Pneumatics.

Ingenuity has triumphed again in the
automobile world. This time It is not
the comfortable pleasure car but the
bulky, hard -laboring truck that takes
unto itself the benefit of simple but
big idea.
trucking world who desire more speed
or more protection for their goods have
wanted to let pneumatic cord tires-the
giants that appeared short time ago
shoulder the burdens now carried by huge
solids.
But the operators objected. They
pictured themselves sweating under an
almost impossible task every time there
was a blowout or other necessity for
changing tires on the road. And they
didn't like the picture.
The larger size pneumatics-one of
which will measure A inches in diameter,
with a thickness of ten inches-are so
heavy that they have been considered
beyond the capacity of one man to han
die when the ordinary type of wheel is
used, since it is necessary to detach the
tire from the rim. The change also re-
auires the strenuous job of Initiating the
new tire.
Idea Is Developed.
Thus the general adoption of the giant
pneumatic for rapid hauling has been
hampered. while man turned his inventive
faculties toward the idea of simplifying
the operation.
The idea came 1t as developed And
now, according to announcement made
last week at Akron, the worlds tire max
ing center. the stamp of utility and prac
ticability has been put on it by six of
the biggest steel wheel manufacturers
of the United States. who have started
to make deliveries Of wheels embodying
the idea. A dozen other firms will
likewise adopt the idea, it was said.
The announcement was made by II. S.
'Firestone, president of the Firestone Tire
& Rubber company. Mr. Firestone is also
president of the Firestone Steel Prod
ucts company, in whose experimental
shops the idea was developed As it n,
wolves the manufacture Of new wheel
design and the Tirestone companies are
not wheel manufacturers, it was passed
on to the wheel producers.
Firestone Is Interested.
Mr. Firestone is directly interested in
the success of the wheel because it
makes it possible for the wheel makers
TO construct their standard wheels so rs
to accommodate the Firestone demount
able rim, which was itself the first prac-
tical quick detachable demauntabe rim.
This is the most important develop
ment in connection with giant pneumatic
tires for trucks since the large tires
themselves were introduced" said Mr..
Firestone in making the announcement.
1T is of particular Importance at this
time when the ship truck movement is
making such headwaE, in view of the fact
that long distance operators realize the
Importance Of the pneumatic tire in their
business and will welcome wheel design
that will increase its potential service.

for Franklin cars. Bodies delivered from
this factory will be in addition to the
present delivery schedule for enclosed
models furnished by independent body
makers.
The Franklin company also has just
closed long term lease Of the Edwards
building in the wholesale section of the
city which will give the factory 10000
additional square feet of floor space to
be used for storage.
When the changes and construction
work now under way are completed, the
Franklin company will have spent well
in excess Of half million and will have
nearly a quarter of million square feet
additional floor space. The new build
ing alone will have floor space Of 16O,-
600 square feet and the new body fac
tory will aggregate about 10000 square
feet.
The new building, to be located on the
site of the present works, will be 120
feet by 24o feet in ground area. 1t will
be constructed at the corner Of Mar
cellus and Magnolia streets, adjoining
the building now occupied by the paint
shop, assemblies and inspection depart
ments. A large expanse of glass on all
sides will make it strictly a daylight
plant.
Night shifts in the factory will be util
lied until sufficient floor space is OBJ
tanned by lease and construction to care

fleet with the new wheels. A short time
ago while they were at Macon, Ga, the
manager staged a tire changing contest
participated in by six young women
members of the Red Cross Motor Corps
of that city. They found it easy to make
the changes. The winning team did it
in less than five minutes"
The new wheel design has slot in its
felloe. To remove tire, after jacking
up the truck the wheel is turned until
the part of it containing this slot is near
est the ground, which is just cleared by
the tire. Clamps and wedge ring hold
the rim to the wheel and engage the
valve in the slot. These are removed
and the tire is readily pulled from the
wheel. In applying the inflated tire, the
wheel is turned SO that the slot is at the
bottom. the inflated tire is worked to-
ward the wheel and the valve is engaged
in the slot, turn of the wheel swings
the tire into place with stop plate seated
in key way. No difficult lifting is nec-
essary.
