TIRE TALK
NO. 1.-THE VALVE.

The valve spring, known also as the valve core or "gut" fitted with a cone-shaped washer, is the mechanism o fthe valve that al- lows the entrance of the air into the tube and retains it there. When the spring is improperly fitted in the valve or the delicate washer is damaged it leaks slow ly and the tire goes flat with the usual resulting damage. No tire man deserving of the name al lows mounted tire to leave his shop without first thoroughly testing ithe valve.
 He does this, not simply by wet ting his finger and placing it over the mouth of the valve, but by inserting the valve into glass of water and holding it there for several moments, carefully watching for the slightest trace of bubble. If one appears, he eliminates the trouble.
 SERVICE like this is typical of "stitch in time" policy prevailing at the
 Underwood Tire Co.

In loving memory of my beloved
husband and u loving father, Rich
ard Q. Croker, who departed this life
April 18th, 1919.
We often sit and think of him
When we are all alone,
For memory is the only thing
That grief a call its own.
One year has passed away,
We grieved when he departed.
Time was too short to say farewell,
To those he knew and loved so we'll.
We miss his coming footsteps,
We miss him everywhere,
Home is not what it used to be,
Since he is not here.
In the lonely grave he's sleeping,
AS the shadows onward fall,
And our lonely hearts are breaking,
No more his presence we can call.
Do not ask US if we miss him,
Oh, there's such a vacant place,
Oft we think we hear his footsteps,
Or we see his smiling face.
Just one year ago you left us,
How we miss you no M knows,
You are gone, but not forgotten,
By the onestwho loved you SO.
Sadly missed by wife and children.

JUST GOT OVER A COLD!

Look out for kidney troubles and
backache. Colds overtax the kidneys
and often leave them weak. For

Mrs. L. E. Jenkins, Fredericktown,
Mo, says: On several occasions
Doan's Kidney Pills have proven sue
cessful when l have needed them
Whenever l have taken cold, it has
settled in my back and has caused
awful pains. My back has become
weak and l have had a great deal of
misery until l would use Doan's Kid
ney Pills. Doan's always proved
beneficial and gave me relief. I gen.

 The prospecting tunnel which is being driven is now being worked bv day labor instead of contract. It is in about 1900 feet and will be driven not more than 500 feet more to spot where it will tap a large ledge. It is already in the ore zone and smaller veins are being cut constantly. Good values are being 'ound in the tunnel.
 According to MT. Pekovich. the labor shortage is the worst handi- cap the company is now contending with. They have thirteen men work 'ng and could use that many more if they could get them and will con iinuc operations through the winter months and endeayor to get their mill on the beach in operation.
