As the Thief Takes His Seat the Steering Going
Invisible Alarm Switched

ringing, and continues to ring even
after the thief leaves his seat and
seeks safety from the police or citi-
zens who are sure to be attracted by
the noise of the bell The bell will
continue to ring until the owner re-
turns to the car, or until somebody
hnds the hidden control switch and
turns 1T off. Of course, if the thief is
ingenious enough to find this switch
at once, he can turn off the alarm him
SELF, but there is small chance of a
thief working very long around car
to the accompaniment of a loudly
changing bell.
Diagram Explains.
Inc various parts of the circuit and
their connection are shown in the dia-
gram. The materials needed are: One
or more small switches to be con-
cealed as well as possible within
reach of the driver; good, loud cleo
trio bell; relay. or circuit breaker,
such as is used on nearly all modern
automobiles to connect the generator
to the battery when the proper speed
is reached; some resistance wire,
large enough to carry several amperes
of current and some pieces of wood
and spring brass to make the seat
switch. AS will be noted in the cir
cult diagram when the concealed
switch is closed and the seat switch
is closed, the circuit through the bell
is established, and, at the same time,
the circuit through the circuit-breaker
switch, so that, even though the
latter is open, the bell continues
to ring. The resistance coil would
not be necessary if the circuit through
the bell was continuous. Since, how
ever, it is interrupted at eacn tap Of
the bell, the, coil is necessary in order
to maintain sufficient current
through the circuit breaker to keep it
from permitting the shunt circuit
across the seat switch to open, thus
stopping the alarm. The only way the
alarm can be stopped is by breaking
the main circuit, either at the con-
cealed switch or at some other point.
If properly wired this cannot be done
by stranger without spending con-
siderable time, which, under the cir
cumstances, is out of the question for
a thief, at least in city or town.

WE MUST GROW INTO SHIP HABIT

John Barton Payne, chairman of
the United States shipping board, in a
statement to the Southern Commercial
congress, said in part:
My conclusion is, it is not possible
to have successful American mer-
chant marine until the country grows
into the ship habit. The American
newspapers and magazines must
arouse the thinking men among manu-
facturers, investment bankers, farm
ers, and labor to the necessity for a
merchant marine.
The congress is giving the matter
close attention, and besides the Greene
bill should pass a mortgage bill sub
stantially like the one now before the
merchant marine and fisheries com
mittee, to guarantee investors a lien
for the purchase price of the ships
which will. in financial circles, have
as much value as railroad mortgage,
and investment bankers and the public
may freely invest in ship securities.

Many good and efficient automobile
locks have been called into existence
by the epidemic of automobile thefts,
and there is now no excuse for leav-
Ing car unprotected. The locks in
general use are of several classes,
each presenting it's own advantages
and open to its own objections. Elec-
tr1cal locks for merely breaking the
ignition circuit were the first on the
scene, and are still used to some ex-
tent, although no expert automobile

more than a few seconds, as he would

Gasoline-line locks are useful. but

The best method of mounting
straight-side tires is first to lay the
rim on the floor and insert the valve
stem of the tire in the proper place.
About ten inches of the bead on both
sides of the valve should then be
forced into place. After thus start

forced into place by stamping on it.

CASUALTIES DUE TO
RANK CARELESSNESS
Drivers Fail to Comply With Few
Simple Rules.
DON'T Rely Wholly on Other Fellow
Doing Right Thing-Look Care
fully Both Ways in Crossing
Streets and Go Slow.

"Most automobile accidents are due
to lack of a little common sense and
carelessness in complying with few
simple driving rules. 1t isn't always
the first-time owner who gets his
name in the accident columns" says
George Stowe, president Of a motor
car company.
First assume that you must look
out for yourself and the other fellow,
too. Don't rely wholly on the other
fellow doing the right thing and you'll
be on your guard if he does the wrong
thing.
Never back or swing from the curb
into the street without looking back to
see if the way is clear.
Glance both ways on each cross
street, and if you're not on the main
thoroughfare slow down before you
cross. It's safest to drive slowly
enough to have the car we'll under
control where buildings hide intersect-
ing streets.
Do not cut corners in turning. but
keep to your side of the street and
look both ways before you make n
turn.
Put out hand as guide to the
car following or approaching.
If passing slower vehicle pass on
your left, but in passing a street car
always keep to the right.
Do not follow another vehicle too
closely. It might stop suddenly.
Stop when the street car ahead of
you stops and stand still till all pas
sengers getting off are out of the
street.

quietly in the far West for long time,
and they predicted he would be able
to go into the Republican convention
at Chicago next June with a formid-

Senator Johnson's statement an
nouncing his candidacy fairly bristled
with defiance of the Republican organ

BURROUGHS: OLD-TIME NATURALIST

Old John Burroughs-his beard is
long and white these days-migrated
across the country the other day from
Slabsides to Pasadena. OF course he
had to change trains at Chicago, and a
large group of his admirers met him at
dinner in a North Shore hotel-the
dinner being spread in a sunken gar
den, surrounded by wood and
warmed by log fire.
And what do you think? The old
fellow boasted that he had never
drank coffee or smoked. Now good
many good people believe that the man
who has never drank strong, black,
hot coffee right off the campfire has
missed somEthing. He may live six
months or b year longer, but 1t isn't
worth the price. And the man who
can't light UP fine, ripe, Missouri

THE "CRAB" TAKES THE JOY
\ OUT OF LIVING
BY BILL PRICE.

A human "crab" caused nd gnant young fellow to
call the editor in haste the other day Over the telephone
he told that several boys throwing and catching
baseball in the alley behind Keiths Theater dgnfed
gentleman passing along street became embitered when
wild throw landed the ball within few feet OF him.
Scuryng around lie found policeman hustled the officer
the spot and insisted that the boys be locked up The
policeman heated to do this but further demand called
patrol wagon and had the boys loaded in and sent to
station house. where is hoped they sent away with
warning.
No wonder the chap at the other end called him
crab" Such fellows take the JOY out OF living for the
young; for adults too for that maer just simply sour
everything and everybody around them
In this the boys might have been careless, and it
might have good citizenship to have asked policeman
give them hint be careful of the rights of Others
But must be pretty guy who will want boys public
humilated for possible first ofense of minor nature.
Boys frequently too careless in the baseball prac
tcng on the streets and elsewhere AS embryo citizens they
should be made understand that they must not be dis
regarul of the rights Of others of dangers to limb and de-
struction of property.
The best policeman and the best citizen seek to in
cucate proper principles in the young not to stop them
healthfu pastmes that make for their happiness
And in big city like Washington boys and girls have too
little opportunity for youthful pleasures.
The best cop among boys is the big brother who has
the confidence friendship and good will of the youngsters
His influence for good powerful because the boys believe
in him He teaches them the rule of right of conscience
not fear of the Law.
The only weapon of the crab policeman, except his
pistol or stick fear The crab citizen has absolutely
influence for good.
