themselves to the amazed poilus and
declined to leave because they couldn't

an American officer came to the front
after them. They polished the COM

Patterson finally found enough ex-

CARELESSNESS WILL
LESSEN TIRES LIFE
Motorists Continue to Disregard
Simple Rules.
underinhation. Scrapino Along Curb
Stones and Dumping Into curbs
and Distractions Are Among
Common Abuses.

Tires have improved so much in quail
ity In recent years that even when
abused good tire gives such a good
mileage that the motorist is usually
satisfied that he got his moneys
worth.
But motorists continue to show dis
regard for few simple rules, and
their carelessness greatly increases
their tire bills. The three ways In
which this carelessness manifests it.
self chiefly are underinfiatiOn, scrap
ing along curb stones and humping
into curbs and Obstructions, accord
ing to the observations of the service
department of one of the largest tire
companies.
Improper imitation costs more than
all other faults put together. By the
simple expedient Of taking the trouble
once week to make sure that each
tire is sufficiently inflated, car
owner will add amazingly to the mile
age he gets from his tires
Under this head it is well to repeat
the old admOnition the tires should be
pumped to the same figure In summer
as In winter. The expansion Of the air
In the tires In hot weather Is so in
finitesimal that 1t should be entirely
disregarded. and the tire pumped up
to the prescribed figure.
Scraping along curb is an exceed
ingly common form of fire abuse An
evidence of the cOmmonness of this
practice may be found by noticing the
number Of tires that are peeled or
scraped on the outer side Of the tire
while the inner side is In perfect con-
dltiOn.
Dumping a tire into curb, particu-
larly when undernfated, is one Of the
most serious forms Of mistreatment,
for 1t causes breaks in a fabric founda-
tion which quickly bring the tires use

standing would be assured among the
nations.
He referred in particular to the ma
ton's effort toward disarmament, as
serting his faith that the movement
would succeed
With his tribute To the Pilgrims Mr..
Harding linked II eulogy To the achieve
ments of the Engish-speaking race
everywhere, and declared he was con-
WINGED that the mission of the race
would encompass even greater things
than ii had yet accomplished.
The leadership of the English-speak-
ing peoples in the present world crisis,
he said, could not be denied nor doubt
ed by anyone.
The Presidents address, delivered
within a few hundred feet of the spot
where Plymouth Rock has been in
closed in iron paings Ia preserve Ii
for posterity, was part of an anniver-
sary celebration in which Vice PresI-
dent Coolidge and many other high
officials of state and nation partici-
pated.
The President had headed and re-
viewed parade of civic, military and
naval organizations through the his
torlc streets of Plymouth. and wit
messed the tercentenary pagent repro
ducing the landing of the pilgrims.
With Mrs. Harding and a party of
friends, the President reached Plym-
outh from Washington on his yacht
Mayflower named for the pilgrim ship
which entered this harbor under such
widely different circumstances 300
years ago
Three hnttleships and six destroyers
formed an escort for the Mayflower
of today. She was welcomed by a
booming of the presidential salute
from battery ashore, while British
cruiser, the Cambrian, dipped her flag
at her anchorage just outside Plym-
outh hnrbor.
