ISSUES NEW MAP
OF LONG ISLAND
American Automobile Associa-
tiOn Combines Motor and
Aviation Features.

Recognizing for a long time the handi-
cap under which American aviators have
been laboring, due to the lack of suit
able maps, the touring bureau of the
American Automobile Association has
prepared a new map OF Long Island, de-
signed to be Of assistance both to motor
lists and ayiators. That such a map will
nii long felt want is unquestiouable,
aviators having been unable TO secure
In this country reliable maps which
show the topographic features necessary
tn enable them to fly over unfamiliar
country.
The primary requisite for map Of
this kind is that 1t must indicate the
location Of all flying fields, including
landing places, tb be used -ins case OF
emergency. The map also shows all
railroads and main; highways, these two
essential features being printed in diff
ferent colors so as TO eliminate possible
confusion and permit of instant identi-
heation when being consulted in the air.
All OF these things we're given careful
conside ration during the preparation OF
this new map, with the result that all
aviation features. such as landing places,
railroads and town names are indicated
in red, while the roads are In black.
Tire special needs of motorists were
likewise taken into consideration, and
the map includes many new features
which have not been shown on previous
maps of this region and which add ma
terially to its value as a road map.

Just the looks of it, the feel of it,.the
action of it proves the Firestone su-
perior when compared with any
other.
And it's better quality is proved
again by it's service in the tire.
There is no better rubber-and
Firestone gives more of it.
Firestones have toughness, heat
resistance, a ome-back, that only
Firestone methods can give to rubber.
Then why is the price so low?
The Flrestone group of rubber spe-
cialists over in Singapore is the
answer backed by the Firestone
buying power and organizing ability.
To get the best and be able to give
most for the money, Firestone goes
to the source of things.
Rubber represents the main element
of cost in a tube: The item of labor
is less in proportion than in a tire.
So you get the benefit of the finest
rubber possible and more of it in a
Firestone tube because Firestone has
saved for you at the source of supply.
That explains why, "the price is too
low" as the dealer said,
Firestone capital is ready for any
enterprise that means travel on rub
Der at lower cost. Firestone men
go any distance to make good their

Who Are You

Are you known by your own name,
or are you known merely as your
fathers son?
Are you known by your own good
qualities and by your own acts, or
are you remembered simply because
you bear the name of better people
who conceived you and brought you
into this world?
The young man who can look his
elders straight in the eye and say II
am James Martin" already has OPP
portunity at his feet, but the fellow
who can say nothing more than that
81 am Robert Martins son." will still
be cropping in the darkness Of the flu
ture after opportunity has vanished
forever in the distance.
Be something, do something, create
a personality of your own, and the
world will know you and respect you
for what you are and not for what
your parents were before you.
But continue content as another
mans son" and you will be accorded
the respect and privileges only Of
another mans son." and when death
overtakes you your home paper will

another mans son." 49,

: Habit and Impulse.

Haitian awful word! You have
them, so have we-and don't we hate
them? But they are so hard to
break. For instance, because of habit,
we cannot crawl into bed at night
and go right to sleep. No, we must
first rest on one side, then the other,
and then on the back before we can
sleep.
Some people, when seated, wiggle
their feet up and down and sideways,
unconscious the whole time that they
are wasting energy. Other people,
when reading or at picture shows,
bite their nails. Habit makes makes
some of us swear-makes some of us
smoke cigarettes.
Then there is impulse! Did you ever
have an almost uncomfortable i'm
pulse to do something you ought not
do? We have. During the most Sc
rious sermons a desire has crept over
us ia throw hymn book at the head
of some one. 1t was inspired, this
desire, because we knew we shouldn't
do it. Have you ever wanted to jump
from high building, at the same
time realizing the awfulness Of such
an act? Aren't we just lot of kids
when impulse gets us?
Well say we are.

BOHEMIA HIVE OF INDUSTRY
Little Country, Now to Be Given OPP
portunlty to Progress, Has Been
Much Misunderstood.

Not one of the little countries which
have come into being as Independent
states, or parts of new nations, since
the triumph of the allies, is more often
misunderstood in America than b.
hemia has always been. The very
name has implied, for many persons,
the unconventional ways of artists,
the gypsying of vagrants, and the i'm
patience Of restraint which is sup
posed to characterize countries remote
from great centers of trade and in
dustry and rather backward in their
business interests. ...-..
But Bohemia Is wonderful hive Of
Woodworking and skilled artisans. It
is one Of the most densely populated
countries in the world, exceeding, in
that respect, Germany, Austria-Hun-
gary, as a whole or in either half Of
the old monarchy, and even Italy. The
number of Inhabitants, in proportion
to the area, is IS per cent greater than
it is in France. Bohemia is almost
exactly half as large as Ohio, but it's
population, nearly 100000 at the be-
ginning of the war, is about 35 per
cent greater than that Of this state.
There is no other division of Aus
tria-Hungary, taking into the reckon
ing the entire territory formerly in
that dual monarchy, which is equal to
Bohemia in manufactures. 1t is a
notable center of iron and steel pro-
duction. Its textiles are an impOr-
tant factor in the trade of Europe, and
its glassware, china, sugar, beer, chem
icals, paper, tobacco, lace, toys and
many other products Of skill and pa
tient labor are widely known. Neces-
sarily, the commerce of so busy a
country is large and far-reaching.
All that Bohemia needs is the op-
portunity which has come at last to
prove the capacity Of its people for
great progress beyond the level they
have already attained.

All One Needs to Determine Physical

The best way Of asking friend how

fact, there are only ten degrees be-

death, observes a writer in London

The temperature Of the air has moth
ing to do with the temperature of the
body, which is the temperature Of the
blood. The Eskimo in health sends
the clinical thermometer to the same
spot as the Negro in Timbuctoo, viz,
SO degrees Fahrenheit. The tempera-
ture Of the air will sometimes vary 40
degrees in the same day, but if the
temperature Of the body goes up two
degrees, you are i'll four degrees, you
are very i'll six degrees, and the doc
tor is very anxious; eight degrees, and
you are at deaths door.
Anybody can take a temperature.

guard to possess and use a clinical

for the doctor. Anything higher than
that is doctors job.

First Time RECKONING.

Perhaps the first reference to at.
tempts to reckon time by mechanical
means is found in Isaiah xxxviii, s.,
written supposedly about lib B. c.,
"the sun dial of Ahaz." Pliny says
that Anaximander invented a sun dial
about $50 B. c. The first sun dial at
Rome was placed in the temple Of
Quirinus, about 29S B. c., when time
was divided into hours. The cIep-
Sydra, or water clock, was the next
time recorder invented.

The Economy General.

Gen. Sir Henry Horne, ''the man who
took Douai," has been called the econ.
omy general through skirfful manip-
ulation of men and his small casual
ty list. His name will be handed down
to pOsterity as the man who invented
the creeping barrage" system, which
came into universal use on the battle
field. With the assistance of this bar
rage, he captured Fricourt, Mametz
and Douai, gaining maximum results at
minimum cost. His losses in men and
material on each occasion were very
light.
General Horne belongs to the Old
Centemptibles, and he saw service also
in the South African war. His proud
est moment during that campaign was
when General Cronje surrendered to
him.
