SOME FACTS BOUT TIRE
INITIATION

1t is customary among autOmo-
bilists when they pump air into
wheel which is lacked up, not
to pump up to the required pres
sure, but to allow a few pounds
for the weight which will come
on the tire when the jack is re-
moved. nD
This is bad practice, says an ex-
pert from the United States Tire
Company's laboratories for care
full experiments show that the
weight of the car on the tire does
not add even a fraction Of a
pound to the air pressure inside
a tire. Consequently. the United
States Tire Company advises mo-
florists to initiate their tires to
the recommended pressure,
whether the wheel is lacked up
or not.
While on the subject Of infla-
ton, motorists should again be
warned that the notion which
has gained wide belief among
automobilists that the heat of a
summer day expands the air in
side a tire to such an extent that
the tires do not need to be blown
up to the same point as in
winter. is an utter fallacy. FIX
periments show that it takes ter
rife driving for a considerable
period in such a race as that at
the Indianapolis speedway to
generate enough heat to raise the
air pressure in a tire five or six
pounds. The expansion in a car
driven at an ordinary rate on a
hot summer day is so slight that
no allowance should be made for
it when the tire is pumped up.
Motorists would do we'll in hot
weather to test the air pressure
in their tires every few days to
see that the leakage of air has
not reduced the pressure to the
point where the tire will suffer
harm.

FASHIONED BRICKS TO LAST
Romans Invented New Methods and
the Products of Their kilns
Lasted for Centuries.

The Egyptians were Of course great
brickmakers, and, to some extent, the
Greeks after them; but it was the Ro-
mans who first, in the west, seized
upon and perfected this art OF the
east. That was about the beginning
of the Christian era. With character
istic thoroughness they exercised the
greatest care in the selection of their
clay; they invented new method OF
burning bricks in kilns, and thus the
art spread throughout Europe, and
nearly two thousand years ago crossed
the silver streak to Britain. NOW
when the Romans made bricks in
Britain they made them to last, for
when the Roman legions were with
drawn and the art Of brickmaking
was, as it was apparently, Withdrawn
with them, the bricks from ruined Ro-
man buildings were used again and
again by Angle and Saxon, Norman
and Celt to fashion their houses. Ii
Is doubtful, indeed, If any more burnt
bricks were made in England until the
thirteenth century, and it was not IN
til the fifteenth century, that bricks
came into general use. BY the six
teenth century, however, they were all
the fashion everywhere, and in the
reign of the Great Harry the art was
brought to a high degree of excellence.
Anyone who would see the bricks OF
400 years ago has only to explore the
mellow gories of st. James palace or
the old quadrangles of Hampton court.

Chief Bender's Mistake.

Next to his ability to pitch, Chief
Bender has always been proudest OF
his cleverness with the shotgun.
The famous Indian takes part In
most of the big tournaments, and
rarely misses an opportunity to join
a hunting party.
Rube Oldring, always great pal OF
Bender's tells of a hunting experience
that was always touchy spot with
the chief.
Bender spied what appeared to be
a flock of ducks and blazed away. To
his great delight only one duck took
fight.
Bender confided to companion that
had he been using his old gun he would
have gotten all of them.
On arriving on the scene it was dis
covered that Bender had shot into a
flock of decoys and the only live bird
In the bunch had escaped.

WILL TAKE CHINESE CENSUS
Accurate Enumeration Of the Popula-
tian of the Great Eastern Land
for the First Time.

A new census of China is to be made
during the coming year by the China
missionary continuation committee,
says the Canton Times Of a recent
date. Figures will be compiled of the
population by provinces and the pro-
portion of the population in each prov
ince resident in cities Of $4,000 and
over. For years the population OF
China has been estimated at some
thing between 35O,OO0,OOO and 100000
600, while many have placed it at
much higher figure. In addition to
the important task Of preparing an ac-
curate census, the committee plans to
prepare maps and charts showing the
location Of missing stations, schools OF
middle grade and above, both Chris
tan and n-Christian, and the num-
Der Of charitable institutions. An
other chart will also show the location
of all missions and other hospitals.
