OLDEST COLLEGE IN STATE
St. NIary's viii Open Fall Semester
With 500 Students

st. Marys. Kan, Sept 5.-St. Mary's
college, which has the distinction of
being the Oldest college or university
in the state, expects to open the fall
semester with full quota of 500 stu
dents, practically the same as last
year. The total 1920-21 enrolment
was 514. The college admits men
only as students and the faculty of
thirty-nine members is composed en-
tirely of men. OF the faculty staff
there are three new members: Prof
NJ. A.. Sehaefer. biology; Prof J. A.
Bergens. English: Mr.. William Hay
den. high school physics.
The origin of st. Mary's college
dates back to 1S4s. when school was
opened by pioneer Jesuits where the
college buildings now stand. The mis-
sion preceded the incorporation of the
town of st. Marys some eighteen years.
Originally the school was for the edu-
cation of the Pottawatomie Indians
and first settlers, following the grant
of lands to the Pottawatomies as a
reservation in 1916.

pension of Custom.
New York, Sept. 5.-Owing to the
acute unemployment situation and the
disinclination of union men to spend
money on non essentials, the Labor
Day parade, for years chief event of
the day, was dispensed with today.
1--WE took a referendum and the.
unions voted about $685. said John
Sullivan, president of the Central
Trades and Labor council, in explain
ing the decision. 'In view of thewote,
it was decided it would be better not
to have the parade"
The unions at present are having a
hard time finding it all they can do
to take care of their men who are out
of work. A weekly average of ten
dollars per unemployed man is said
to be spent by the unions.

wheels are overloaded approximately
1000 pounds each. We believe that
this is the main cause for the failure
Of the seven-inch pneumatics to
stand up. To adequately carry the
load you should use eight-inch pneu-
matics.
Taking into consideration the road
conditions. which appear to be hard
we do not think that pneumatics are
as economical as solids for your rear
wheels 1t would appear that solids
would get plenty Of traction under
the road conditions. If this Is true.
the remaining advantages which a
pneumatic tire would have for rear
wheels would be speed and cushion

you operate are rough therefore
speed is not possible over a con-
siderable part of the distance. The
ing the rear end is not as important
as for cushioning the front end as
far as truck upkeep Is concerned.
especially when operating at low
speed.
Our recommendations would be,
therefore, that you either change your
seven-inch rear pneumatics to eight
inch pneumatics on eight-inch rims,
or that you change the rear equip
ment from pneumatics to solids il
the truck is not so old that it would
not pay to change. A seven-inch
solid tire of the mono-twin type is

rear wheels you should be able to
obtain most satisfactory tire results.

Needs Heavier Construction.
The fact that the tires on your
truck are giving way in the side
walls Is an indication that this truck
needs a more heavily constructed
tire. To solve your problem we can
oner two recommendations One is
that you use on the rear wheels s5x5
