WINNERS IN DECLA-
NATION CONTEST
CHOSEN
Three Young Ladies Will
Compete for State Honors
April 9

Eight young ladies from the
Newark High School competed in
the defamation contest held last
Friday evening at Wolf Hall.
They showed every evidence of
careful preparation and painstak-
ing preliminary work. The acous-
tic conditions in Wolf Hall made
the contest exceedingly difficult
but all of the contestants acquitt-
ed themselves admirably.
Dean Winifred ]. Robinson, DR..
John Robert Moore, and Mary l..
Powers of the Newark Post were
the judges. They rated the con-
testants according to the scheme
prepared for such affairs
throughout the state. 1919 was
allowed for voice, 1919 for articu-
lation, 1920 for memory, 1919 for
| gesture, and 500 for general eff
feet. The contestants all made
high scores and the matter of de.
| Gliding the three winners was a
| difficult matter.
The decision was finally giver
to Misses Mildred Major, Heller
Pillsbury, and Sara Pierson in tht
order named. These young ladie!
will compete in the county contes'
which will be held Friday, April 9
The hall was we'll filled witt
schoolmates, friends and relatives
of the contestants.
| During the interval following
the contest while the judges wer
in conference, DR.. Richard Watson
Cooper whose daughter was one o
the contestants addressed the as
semblage briefly upon Superin
tendent Morris invitation, an
gave several short readings.

rightly so. Its benefits are countless.
The benefit most obvious in these days |
of H. G.. L., is good pay. Think OF
thirty perfectly golden dollars, at the
lowest and practically all expenses
paid. The physical benefits speak for
themselves in the appearances of our
soldier boys. These go long way III
the upbuilding of American manhood
The Army offers courses in more than
a hundred vocations. Choose any OF
the fourteen branches of service that
you will and earn while you learn,
for you can still receive your pay
while you learn vocation. When
you have finished your period of en-.
listment you are enabled to battle
more successfully with the cold blasts
of the world. Seven essentiols Of life
which attract one are given free, VIZ.
wholesome food, healthful sleeping
quarters, clothing, medical attention,
dental work, recreation and amuse-

SO his uncle is quite indulgent in his
rules on recreation.
But, besides these benefits, there
are those which everyone does no,
see. The Army is the place where a
man learns to be man; place
where he learns to be courageous
religious, and obedient. Here he re-
ceives discipline which is almost as
needful as education. He enjoys the
company of wholesome minds nodded
by high moral standards. He has a
chance to study human nature. There
is the chance of life time to view
the wonders of the world through
travel. A soldier has no fnancia
cares. He is given the cheapest in,
surance in the world and fine banking
facilities. Above all the Army pro
notes patriotism thus developing
the highest point the work of Ameri
canism.

sSScholars'' Going to
Tire Repair Schools
Learn About Many Matters Con-
nected With Remaking
of CaSinos
of Castings

"Never too old to learn" This time
worn saying is brought forcibly home
to persons who see middle-aged men
and even g%ray-haired men from foreign
lands studying textbooks and charts
in Americanization schools. But to
many it is equally impressive to know
that "grown-up" men who have been
through American grammar and high
schools are applying themselves as re-
ligiously as are the foreigners.
The students in question are those
attending the tire repair school Of the
B. r. Goodrich Rubber Company, at
Akron, Ohio. Every thirty days a new
contingent Of men from various trades
arrives in Akron, where they don over
ais and work at benches as they learn
approved factory methods of repairing
fabric and cord tires and tubes. The
student gets an entirely different view
point Of the tire industry. Trips
through the factory are in themselves
valuable training.
Glasses are started at definite periods
for instance, the next dates are April
26 and May "a. The courses include
lectures on advertising, accounting and
every subject the prospective tire
merchant will need when he starts his
own business. Complete information
will be furnished by addressing the
Goodrich Tire Repair School. Akron,
Ohio, or any one Of the Goodrich
branches In principal cities.

Saves From Injury

watch your step?-You don't have
to-" exclaimed F. W. Beinecke, mana
ger Of the Studcbaker service station
on West Seventy-seventh Street. He
had been asked what would happen if
n person stepped on the starting switch
Of the starting motor with the gaso-
line motor running.
"No, sir--you can step where you
want to in this car. Why? Did you
ever hear of the '~over-running' clutch ?
That's the clutch that was designed and
perfected by the Studebaker engineers
in collaboration with the Wagner Elec-
trio Company. 1t obviates every
chance of injuring the starting motor
by ac%cidently stepping on the switch.
With this o~ver-running clutch you have
no more stripping of starting gears,
or fly wheel gears. And the principle
involved is simple"
"You see," Mr.. Beinecke continued,
"it is a clutch that will operate one
way only. 1t is designed in such a
manner that, when the speed of the
gasoline motor becomes greater than
the speed of the starting motor, the
clutch is automatically disconnected
from the starting motor"

The Knights, in their chain Of fifty
schools located in large industrial cen
ters, are teaching the men the art of
correct driving and the science Of the
car. One reason why the course is
more popular than all others is that
it leads to an outdoor avocation; an
other is that thousands of the former
service n.cn are ambitious to own their
own cars and want to know as much
es they can about the cars.
The K. of C. give the ex-service men
free tutoring. but civilians pay a nomi-
nal fec at the schools. All popular
makes of cars are studied and the
construction of the tire is a feature
Of the course.

Norway Rules Light
Trucks Run on "Air''
Pneumatic Tire Equipment To
Be Mandatory in That
Country

Norway is the first country in the
world to propose national legislation to
specify that motor trucks up to two
tons capacity must be equipped with
pneumatic tires so as to prevent dam
age to roads and to cut down the ex-
c%essive cost of highway repairs due to
the use of solid tires. Cable advices
to the Goodyear Tire and Rubber Com
pany indicate that the proposed legisla-
ton will b. adopted in the near future.
In fact, motor trucks shipped abroad
by American manufacturers have al
ready been refused admission because
they did not conform to the new wheel
and tire specifications.
All automobiles used for commercial
purposes must be equipped with tires
OF at least five-inch tread on all four
wheels. This means that up to two
tons trucks must be pneumaticaily
equipped; from two to three and a half
tons either pneumatic or solid equip
ment of more than five-inch tires is
permissible. Trucks of more than three
and a half tons weight may run on
solids.
At present there Is some doubt
whether or not the new law will apply
to city streets, pending legislation be-
ing particularly directed against the
use of tires of less than five tread IN
country roads. The Norwegian gov
eminent estimates that unless action is
taken to specify the sizes of tire widths
the country roads will be totally
spoiled within two years.
