The Three Expanding Races.

Sherwood Eddy in the Christian Herald.
 There are three expanding races in the world today. These are the Anglo-Sax- on, the Teutonic and the Japanese. What is to be the nature of the Japanese ex- panson? Is it to be autocratic or demo- cratic, militaristic or peaceful Christian or pagan? That will largely depend upon America The war has brought com plete change of attitude in Japan toward America. The United States is no longer looked upon as nation of money grub ping, tinid materialists, but as an eff cient and powerful democracy. We found more space given to America in the Jap arese press today than to any other na- tion; this has trebled in the last few years. Japan is watching closely~to see if America lives up to her ideals, or whether the high professions of the war were mere cant and hyposcrisy, to cover up q policy of materialistic selfishness and greed at home and abroad. If we are concerned with humanity, no nation is of greater moment than Japan. The first to awaken of the oriental nations, the Japanese are today the strongest and most dominant race in all Asia, and Asia represents over half our world.

g Franklin on which the investigs tion was based, was first put out in the fall of 1916 and in nearly every case the orig iral tires lasted through the first two seasons during which the car was used. So great was the life of the tires that, despite the elapse of two full seasons of use, many owners were unable to report a complete mileage for their cars and in stead submitted figures showing what mileage the tires had run to the date of the investigation.
 Several scattered reports to the Franklin offices during the compilation of the rec ords show that certain tires have been used far in excess of 80, 900 miles, but as these reports, in nearly every case, were submitted by individual tire dealers and not by the owners themselves, the figures were not included in the national aver age.
 The figures covered every type of Frank lin of the present series, both open and enclosed. Every section of the country was represented and interesting facts of climatic and geographic conditions and their effect on tires also were obtained.
 Less than per cent of the tires were discarded because they were worn out. Many of the tires exceeded the 2o,00o-nile mark, and better than 10 per cent GOV cred 1S0o0 miles and were still in use on the cars.
 As proof that luck as an element in punctures is merely incidental, the figures reveal that of all the cars reported there was m average of 6S0 punctures to D. 260, ,63S tire miles; or, to put the result in a different manner, each set of tires ran 4141 ? miles before a puncture was recorded.
 One of the most interesting facts dis closed was that less than one-half of the Franklin owners ever carry spare tires and then, in the great majority of cases, only when the tires are nearing the end of their long period of serviceability.
 Countless additional facts of tire usage of various models prove that Franklin scientific lightweight principles are cor. rect in giving long tire life. The Frank lin light total weight, light unsprung weight and shock absorbing qualities of construction again receive national vim dication

 The post schools which are primary grades of this school system are used wherever they can find roof to shelter them. Floundering through the mud oe some little hamlet where American sol diers are stationed one is likely to stum- ble upon such a school in full operation. An army chaplain recently chanced upon such a school tiie pupils of which were standing on benches because the floor was under six inches of water and in q room dimly lighted by candles stuck in bottles. The sergeant teacher was using q piece of tarred paper as a blackboard. It was Il sosclock at night, and fl men whose military duties prevented them from attending in regular hours composed the extra class.
 This little scene is symbolic of the spirit with which the American soldier have taken advantage of the educa tional train :. ing offered them by the army school sys. tenn.
 Men in some cases are working eight, 10 and F hours day at military duties and then studying at night in the post sct ools, tired in body but doggedly deter mined. In some cases they have volun- tarily worked at night so as to be al lowed to attend a lecture or school ses- sion in the daytime. Illterate men who have been taught to read and write often ask permission to take their dog earred primers home with them when their di- visions start for America Thousands of such men have been started on the road to education in the past few months. But it must not be mistakably assumed that al the soldier boys are coming back with a higher education" The big idea Of the educational corps is to give a man a start and enable him to find himself so to speak Many a soldier has been a round peg in a square hole back home. The army is helping these men to get started on the right groove.
 Practicality is the key word of all the educational courses. The soldier is not going to school merely for the fun of it" He wants results that will help him with his job back home and he Is getting them. Vocational training is an important and successful feature of the post school and there are few trades that are not tsught in some Of them. In the academic course. history, English and mathema tics hold the major places. If there is suf- lcient demand for the teaching of a given subject it is placed on the curriculum.
 Agricultural courses are provided in many of the schools and find many pupils Fifty per cent of the men in the army are from rural districts, and many of them intend to return to their farms. Thousands of city men who have had their first days of outdoor life since they joined the army declare they will never return to the office stool. They like the independence of the farmer and hope to go into agricultural work when they re- turn.
 The practical phases of farming are be- ing taught to the men. V
 Teaching of citizenship is an important factor. Under this head comes labor prob lems and subjects vital to the national welfare.

 "One good instance of savings that could have been affected was recently brought
 to our attention in the case of an Ala bama contractor hauling materials for concrete road construction.
 Loading was formerly done entirely by hand. requiring % minutes to load two tons. Teams cost $7 per day and made four trips hauling a little over two tons per trip an average distance of three miles. This made the commercial ton- mile cost about @ cents.
 "A two-ton Federal was put on the job

The same object, however. could be attained over a diff ferent path, although less inviting in its fertility.

Smashing it's best previous national tire record by more than 4500 miles, or nearly 50 per cent, and practically doubling the existing figures available for other makes, comes word to Charles Denegre, that the Franklin car has just captured another national record for economy. Figures proving a new average tire mileage of more than 14,50o miles to every set, have been disclosed in the country wide inves- tigation of tire facts, conducted by the Franklin Automobile company of Syra- cuse, N.

 Results are based entirely on figures submitted by owners and are the outcome of great mass of data, with the elemi- nation of all special cases not backed up by the actual speedometer readings of ths owners and drivers of the car
