THEU.S.USCOTREADA

Here is the u. S. Usco Tread,
with a long-established standard
OF service among motorists who
have an eye TO value, as we'll as
toprice. While selling for less than
the other tires in the U. S. Fabric
line, the Usco has earned a repu-
tation for quality and dependable
economy which is not exceeded
by any tire in its class.

L the biggest conundrum is the
fabric tire Situation.
Around 1920 of all car owners
use fabric tires.
Their instinct for quality is as
strong and insistent as any one

Why, then, are they offered
such hodge-podge stocks of "dis-
count tires, ""odd rotcc, Seconds"
"retreads" and other so-called
bargains of uncertain origin2

SO THE CALENDAR SAYS

by Berton RraIeyl
There's gotta be SOME November in
the year,
There's gotta be days that's rather
dark and drear.
There's gotta be streaks Of weather
That isn't altogether
What you choose, perhaps, to bring
you cheer.
There's gotta be days that's fun of
sIeet and snow.
There's gotta be days that makes your
spirits low,
There's gotta be some November
TO make a man remember
That II amt always spring when roses
blow
There's gotta be times that's gray and
drab and glum.
There's gotta be days when things IS
On the bum.
There's gotta be gloom seasons
For quite a lot Of reasons,
Of which you must admit I've given
some.
There's gotta be some November. now
and then.
So We can better appreciate 1t when
The weather is bright and merry
Instead OF all contrary;
SO here Is November with US once
again.
There's gotta be days. that's quite de-
void Of cheer
Cat least we're certain to get 'em-and
they're here):
There's no way for us 70 cure them
And 50 we must endure them.
There's gotta be some Navera Der in the
yeart

A DAILY MESSAGE
BY DR.. WILLIAM &. BARTON
ART OF BEING UNHAPPY

There is in the world enough OF real
sorrow to cloud the horizon of almost
any man, If he will let it do so.
There are experiences in life which
are hard to bear and impossible to
understand. But the cloud is small as
compared with the sun.
The sources of human joy are many.
They are inherited in every sense. They
are ministered in food and sunshine
and song of bird and beauty of flower
The occasions Of sorrow are relatively
few. They are real and they are pain
full, but they are not so many as life's
joys
Yet there are people who diligently
cultivate a habit Of mind which makes
them obliyious to the joy Of life and
renders them keenly observant of its
sorrows They sedulously seek after
the occasions of unhappiness. They
compel themselves TO be sad.
I am no advocate of articfcial or
even of superficial joy. am no advo-
cate of that kind Of optimism which
is based upon absence Of thought or
lack of courage to face life in its full
meaning and content
But feel that the person who makes
the most of ife's miseries and the
least of its blessings is a kind Of trail
tor to the commonwealth Of humanity
We owe It not only to ourselves but
to each other to be resolute1y alive to
all the reasonable joys of life. II is a
part of genuine religion to teach men
that nfe's good things belong to US by
right Of our heritage from good God
and are to be used and enjoyed.
Misery is not the normal condition
of human life. If we are miserable it
is in part at least because we are fall
ing to make the most of that part OF
life which rightly used would make us
happy.
Let US admit that no man can wholly
escape sorrow On the other hand,
man must try hard If he wholly shuts
himself out from the light Of Joy.
The heroes and heroines of life have
been men and women who conquered
pain and shame and lived triumphant
lives radiant with a kind Of serene
joy
We all have right to share in that
kind Of happiness. and in some other
kinds as well.
Don't cultivate the art OF being I'M
happy.

THE STRANGE LURE.

One Of the wisest Americans that
ever lived was Phineas T.. Barnum
the circus man, He was the first big
advertiser.
Barnum, son of village tavern
keeper, was wizard at psychology
the study Of human nature. Socrates
would have enjoyed talking TO him
and probably learned something new
In 1884 Barnum heard Of Joyce
Heath alleged negro nurse of George
Washington. He bought her for $1,000,
took her around on exhibition and
cleaned up a lot of money.
His next venture was taking hold
Of a complete failure, the American
museum in New York. 1t ceased to
be a failure the day Barnum bought
It, He announced that the museum
had acquired woolly horse. a wnlte
negress, a combination of fish and
monkey called the Japanese mer-
maid" also General Tom Thumb, the
famous dwarf
Did people flock to see these freaks
They did Why. it's interesting even
TO read about them, after the lapse of
|, so years
The secret Of Barnums success was
simple. Realizing that this world at
its best is rather dull. he intuitively
caught the idea that people will flock
to see the unusual.
| A healthy baby, born in Pensacola,
to parents you don't know, does not in
lterest you. But IL you are told that the
baby has six teeth, you sit up and take
notice
Many shrewd men have recognized
this psychological truth and pr01ted
by it, That Is, they have opened the
gates to fortune by doing the Gus
tomary "old STUFF in a slightly differ
ent way. At this trick, politicians es-
ipeciaIly are expert. each eleetion-time
itrotting out the old bunko with a new
coat Of paint like Barnums white ele-
plant, which was exposed when the
rain washed the whitewash Off during
parade.
Take what you are doing for living.
| If you can figure out how to do it in q
different. more interesting way, success
is yours.
Barnum, though he had interesting
exhibits, knew that no one would hear
them unless he advertised. Among
other kinds OF advertising, he invented
the billboard.
But his greatest ad was his circus
parade, winding UP with calliope that
rang in your ears for weeks, to keep
the circus in your memory. No con-
servative band for Barnum.
Barnum died in 1891. His circus
went on. Finally it consolidated with
Ringing Bros.-the Dingdong Broth
ers. as they are called in the sawdust
ring. During the 1920 season, the pa
rade was eliminated. That must have
had an effect on the cash register, for
Charlie Ringing announces that the
parade viii be restored in 1922,
grander than ever to recover lost
ground.
There's tip to advertisers: Keep
everlastingly at 1t.

u. S. Tests Fumes to Make
New Hudson Auto Tube Safe

BRUCETON, Pa-Ten small-type
touring cars are being operated in an
old coal mine here, 130 feet below the
.earths surface and 1850 feet in from
the pit mouth of the mine. in vehicu-
lar tunnel ventilation tests.
These tests are being conducted by
the u. S. Bureau of Mines at the so
licitation of New YorlS-New Jersey
tunnel commission, which has charge
of the construction of the Hudson
river vehicular tunnel.
Every automobile gives or poisonous
materials in its exhaust gases, and the
purpose of these Investigations is to
determine definitely to what proportion
the air in the tunnel must be diluted
with fresh air in order to prevent in
furious effects from these gases.
In order to duplicate conditions as
nearly as possible as they viii be in
the Hudson river tubes when they are
completed, the government engineers
have constructed small automobile
race track in the mine.
The speedway is 300 feet in dame
ter nine feet wide and eight feet high,
and is equipped with intake and ex-

the roadway and above the ceiling Of
the track.
This experimental tunnel is COM
pletely equipped with sensitive appar-
atus for measuring the temperature,
humidity, quantity, velocity and pres
sure of the air in various parts OF the
subterranean tube,
Forty eight air pumping tubes. have
been installed on eight different cross
sections of the tunnel in order to OBJ
tain samples for chemical analysis, for
determining the diffusion and coneen-
tration of the exhaust gases in various
part of the tunnel under different
methods of ventilation
During the experiment, the automo-
biles are operated at intervals of 40
feet and are run at speed Of 10 miles
an hour, duplicating as nearly as pos
sible on a small scale. the traffic con-
ditions in a commercial size tube.
Each driver and observer are sub
jected to careful examination BY expert
physicians and psychologists before
and after each trial IN order to ascer-
tain the effects OF the humidity. tunnel
temperature and carbon monoxide.
The amount OF carbon monoxide alb
sorbed BY each person during the trial
Is determined by examining a few
drops of their blood drawn imme-
dlately after each tryout,
