\. MITCHELL PALMER IN
THE RING.

Il may be safely assumed
now that President Wilson will
not be n candidate for a third
term. but the democratic party
has real candidate for the
presidency in the announce
ment of the Attorney General,
A. Mitchell Palmer. How
many others may be in we can
not predict at this time. How
ever. should good looks be the
test of presidential timber the
attorney general would be a
sure winner. But this is not
all that may be said of him.
He has brains and the energy
to use them. and the courage To
fight for what he believes TO be
right. A. Mitchell Palmer is
one of the big men of the ma
ton. II may also be truly said
of him that il will not be nee
essary 10 assay his whole po-
litical life to ascertain his poll
tics. He is "A democrat from A
To Il. Others may come in the
race better suited TO lead the
party in the present fight than
the Attorney General. but he
will be in at the finish, and will
have a big following from the
beginning.

DEATH VALLEY BEING
 MADE SAFE FOR AUTO BY DAY AND NIGHT

Los Angeles Cal, April T.--Death Val ley, once the terror of the traveller in the southwest and the last resting place of many early day prospectors. is being made safe for travel both day and night.
 This erstwhile barrier to human pro- gress has been conquered by the aut0no- bile. Its trackless waste of sand has been signposted, and it's hidden water holes marked by Uncle Sam. Not content with merely making the desert easy to cross for travellers in daylight the Automo- bile Club of Southern California is go- ing farther and is placing signs in such manner that the rays or headlights from passing machines will fall upon them and guide the night tourist as safely and surely as the day traveller.
 The automobile club also will signpost all lateral routes of the famous Death Valley district. Included in the sign posting being done will be complete set of road signs directing tourists to pic- uresque Palm Canyon, on the edge of the desert, one of the most unique spo.s ,n the world. This oasis in the sandy wastes is to be made a national monu- ment by the government. Its distinctive feature is the presence of ancient palms of weird beauty. standing in straight rows, apparently planted by the hand of man. but antedating history of the first human beings in this section.

STANDARDIZE ON
 SIZES OF TIRES
Odd Ones Are Being Made Now for Replacement
 Purposes Only

The tire industry is rapidly working to- ward a final standardization of tire sizes, under plan of action outlined by the Rubber Association of America.
 Before the war the idea of discontin- uing the manufacture of tires of odd sizes met with approval from tire manu- lecturers, and when the government in the midst of the war announced that to conserve rubber the gradual elimination of unusual sizes would begin, there was cornmendation- both from the manufac- turers and dealers.
 At the conclusion of the war tire man. ufacturers, rim makers and car buid- CTS continued to cooperate with view to reducing the number of sizes to the smallest possible number compatible with giving adequate service. Under their plans all owners of cars using tires of unusual sizes will be able to get tires for their cars as long as the cars last. but no new cars will be made calling for any except the standard sizes.
 In a letter issued this week to it's sell ing forces the United States Tire Com pany says:
 All sizes, other than those that have been selected as the standard sizes to be perpetuated, will be made for the pres- ent for renewal purposes only, In other words, only the sizes thaI are listed below are to be sold effective January 1, I9ze as original equipment. As the replace ment demand for some of the temporary sizes falls off, we will discontinue to make those sizes, and you will be noti- fled from Nlne to time of the sizes that are droppeH
 You will note that the 30xS clincher pneumatic autemobile tire is not includ- ed in fha Sfandard list Of perpptuatad sizes. This size, however we will con tinue to furnish to the manufacturers of small cars. pending the completion of tEose companies arrangements to stand ardize on 30xS15 tires"
 The tire sizes selected for perpetuation are as follows:
 Pneumatic Automobile Tires-30x3ta clincher, 32x3h straight side, S1x4 CL, 32x4 SS, 33x4 SS, 32x41a SS, 33x41a SS, 34x415 SS. 33x5 SS, 35x5 SS.

NEVER RUN ENGINE
 WITH THE BATTERY
 OUT OF AUTOMOBILE

Never run the engine with the storage battery out of the car or disconnected, unless you first see to it that the gen. orator is rendered imperative. Whenever the generator is being driven by the en- zine it is delivering current to the bat tery, but if the battery is not in the Cir cult it is not hard to understand that the generator will build up voltage which will very soon damage or burn out the windings, to say nothing of what it might do to the commutator and brushes.
 Even if the battery is defective and will not charge, it should be left con- nected to the electrical system until it is replaced by another battery; that is if the engine is to te run in the meantime Or, if no substance battery is obtain able for use during the time the other battery is undergoing repair, the car can be run without fear of damage to the generator if the field winding is dis connected.

There is mystery about them.
What do they signify? Whence do
they come? Are they fragments Of

The infinite spaces of the universe
must be full of them, apparently.
Stardust is not an inappropriate
name for them. Some of them travel

the earth passes through one of
these we observe shower Of fall

Early in August of every year we
pass through swarm Of meteors,
and at intervals of thirty-three years
the earth plunges into much great
er flock. These meteoric streams
move in elliptical orbits around the
sun.
When the famous comet Of Biela
failed to turn up at the advertised
date in 1872, astronomers declared
it probably had gone to pieces and
predicted great shower of "shoot-

meteorites which presumably we're
