talnments,

Why not turn the corner saloon int
a community playhouse when the law
effects the closing Of these gathering
places, asks Miss Hazel MacKaye, di.
rector Of the Department Of Pageantry
and Drama Of the Rational Young Wo-
mems Christian Association?
81 went over on the West Side Of
New York one night recently to attend
a community drama meeting" Miss
MacKaye says In explaining her theo.
~, "and as was riding along noticed
how many saloons there were-one on
every corner and another In the mid
die of the block, 1t seemed, all just
blazing with lights. Those lights ought
not to go out with prohibition. They
ought to shine for something worth
while to all of the people, and what
better than community drama and
sings?"
Miss MacKaye feels that the war
has given a great impetus to popular
interest In drama and that through
pageantry and drama great deal in
the way Of AUGMENTATION can be eff
fected.

GOOD NEWS TO THE AUTO
OWAERS.
(BY R. 4. Ferguson

One of the most welcome piece: OF
news to the ears OF the auto owner
IS the recent considerable reduction
in the price of pneumatic tires, cas-
mgs and tubes and the large increase
in the guaranteed mileage by most Of
the large tire manufac turers. About
the middle of May. 1919, reductions
in retail prices averaging around II
per cent were announced by q ma
jority of the large tire factories
This amounts to clear cash saving
Of about $50 to $3.50 on eacn cas-
ing in small sizes and in some brands
more, and to a correspondingly great
er on the larger sizes.
At or about the same time the
manufacturers announced large III
crease in the mileage guarantees 'ae
non-skid types of fabric castings %
ing raised from $500 miles, or II
some cases ito wear and give salts
faction" to 5000 and 1000 miles,
and the non-ski1 types Of cord tires
in the large sizes tC 5000 miles and
up.
There are several reasons for all
these changes, both of which work
to the benefit of the consumer. Dur
ing the recent war all Of the crude
rubber imported into this Country
came under government supervision,

onstrated and run in open competi-
ton with other makes-all tractors
of equal size and capacity competing
together on the same ground and on
equal terms.
Demonstrations Of all the different
styles and makes of plows, discs, har-
rows, seeders and other tools, will
be made at the same time, and re-
suits will be fairly compared.
All of the above will be specially
interesting to any one interested in
tractors and tractor tools for farm
ing purposes.
The trials and demonstrations have
been well advertised and prepare
tons for over 100000 people to at
tend have been made. About 500 to
1000 tractors of all sizes will be on
hand and when some of the trials
are being run off, a finished and
planted seed bed will be prepared at
the rate Of l acre every 3 minutes.
Fourteen hundred acres OF wheat and
corn land have been obtained for
blowing and planting purposes.
We will report later in these col
umns some of the more prominent
points and records made as the re-
suit of the trials.

insurance rates. Also, considerably
over half Of the supply received was
held for government use and con-
sumption. Cotton and labor, the
other two important items, are high
er than ever before, and are still
high, with. no prospect of an early
decline.
But the sudden signing Of the
armistice last November and the ces-
sation of hostilities led to a great re-
duCtion in the consumption of NUM-
lions, Which includes many articles
of rubber besides pneumatic and
solid truck tires, and later to a
wholesale cancellation of contracts.
The factories found themselves with
supplies of raw material and finish
ed goods which could be diverted to
civilian and domestic channels.
Also, the cessation of hostilities
caused a big slump in ocean freight
rates and insurance fees, and rubber
itself became cheaper, all Of which
worked to the benefit Of the ulti-
mate consumer, resulting in cheaper
tires, but better ones.

mileages are in large part due to
better methods of manufacture, use
of better materials, and to an extend
ed effort upon the part Of the fac
tory experimental departments to
wrest the greatest number of miles
of wear from each dollars worth IF
high priced and scarce materials,
nodded and wrought into finished
tires and tubes, by the highest priced
labor ever used. That results have
been obtained, the present reductions
in price and increases in guarantees,
are self-explanatory exhibits.
The retail buyer today receives for
his money about twice the value,
measured in terms of miles of wear
on the road, that he received year
or two ago, and greater freedom
from blowouts and punctured tubes,
the last and lonesome bug-a-boo of
the road.

SUGGESTIONS FOR AUTOMOBILE
OWNERS.
Compiled by R. H. Fergesor)

Compiled by R. H. Fergeson)
DON'T drive a new car fast the
first 500 miles-all the bearings and
wearing parts are fitted tight in a
new machine and need time and rea-
sonable running to wear them to a
perfect fit.
DON'T forget to fill the radiator
regularly with fresh, clean water, and
to drain out and flush same OCCASION
ally
DON'T forget to keep the storage
battery filled with distilled water or
clean rain water to make up for
evaporation. Batteries should be ex-
two or three times month in WIN
ter. Protect the battery from freez-
ing in cold weather.
DON'T neglect the oil cups and
grease cups on the running gear and
steering and braking connections.
DON'T forget to replenish the lub-
ricating oil in the motor regularly.
Drain out all the old oil every 1900
miles and flush out engine with kero-
sene and refill with fresh oil.
DON'T store new car in barn
or stable exposed to the fumes of
ammonia and stable manure. 1t
will quickly dull the varnish ON the
body and tarnish the nickel.
DON'T allow mud and grease to
remain on a new car and dry-wash
off with plenty clean water promptly,
using linseed oil soap suds if neces-
sary, and dry with chamois skin.
DON'T forget to keep your tires
properly inflated in order to save
them and prevent rim cuts and blow

standard makes of cars, is the substl-
tuition of the oil cup for the dirty,
slippery and generally unavoidable
grease cup, used to lubricate spring
hangers and spring bolts, steering
gear joints and spindles, brake lever
shaft hangers and pedal shafts.
During the trouble on the Mexican
border two years ago, and later IN
the great war, the government
bought and used thousands of motor
cars and trucks and tests were held
as to the efficiency of the two sys-
tens Of lubricating these small, many
OF them inaccessible, oft neglected
parts.
After many and exhaustive tests
were held on hundreds of cars and

and reservoir types, won out, lar III

as compared with 16 per cent for he
same period a year ago and 10 per

ton and attractive prices no dslbe
were responsible for some of the in
crease, the representatives say, but
there is a growing tendency to send
hogs to market in motor trucks in
stead of by rail where the distances
are not great. This tendency IS also
shown at other markets. At the, Gin
cinnati yards, for example, 1892
hogs were brought in by truck and
wagon during 1918, as compared with
1922 arriving in similar conveyances

GRINDING NOISES IN GEARS
Trouble Can Be Reduced by Using
Heavier Grease, but Good Judg-
ment Must Be Used.

Grinding noises in gearset or diff
perential can be reduced by using a
heavier grease, but judgment must be
used, as it is easy to get grease SO
heavy that when 1t is chilled it we'll
squeeze out of the gears and stay out,
causing them to run dry, and thus az
yravating the trouble.

DON'T attempt to start engine

DON'T try to climb all the hills

DON'T drive on muddy roads and

cause severe injury to yourself and
damage to your car.
DON'T try to start the car without

APPLYING ANTI-SND CHAINS
Work Must Be Performed So as to
Avoid CIinking of Loose Chains
Against Fender.

Anti-skid chains must not be applied
tightly to the tires, as so many car
owners do to eliminate the clinking OF
the loose chain against the fender.
Tight chains cut the tire badly. Fur
Their, the chains should be inspected at
frequent intervals and any cross links
that have become worn or have de-
veloped sharpness should be replaced.
