TIRE TREADS NOT DECORATIONS BY. G00D,LONG SHOT.

Some car owners think tire treads are decorations like embroidery on women's dresses, or distinctive pat terms by which the manufacturer can leave advertisements on soft roads. But if such trifling considerations were suggested to the scientists who create the modern tire, they would be scandalized.
 As a tire revolves, there forms bulge just ahead Of where it is in con tact with the road. This bulge is called traction wave' Although the bulge always stays in the same relation to the road, the revolving of the wheel has the apparent effect Of making it travel around the tire
 In plain tread tires the full force of this wave continues to roll around the tire. But where a tread with a ribbed or cogged back bone, as in the Miller Cleared to- the Road design. is used, the wave is divided to a certain ex- tent and thrown off at the sides Some tire treads are smooth. some corrugated, and some indented. but the purpose of them all is to overcome this wave The decorative effect is only incidental
 Another important function of the tire tread is to resist slipping and side-sway. If tire is to give full
 satisfaction, it must be designed 10 hold the car to the road. An excel lent tread combines holes to provide
 vacuum grip on slippery surfaces with a V-shape or angie design to
 prevents side way.

HUNDRED YARD FILL DOESN' I
 PHASE ESSEX

Perhaps nothing of recent occur renee has happened to show more clearly the tremendous strength built into an Essex car by the Hudson fac tory than an accident to an owner in Monterey county, California.
 An Essex was sold to this man by the local Hudson and Essex dealer Owing to his unfamiliarity with car operation, the purchaser got a boy to drive it home for him. On the Kinsavey grade in the hills back of Hollister the youthful driver lost control of the car and 1t went over a 50 per cent pitch. Five men and the driver were in the car at the time.
 Every wheel was smashed and the top wrecked in the five times the Es- sex rolled over before it reached the bottom of the hill 100 yards below the road Beyond a few slight cuts and bruises, none of the passengers were injured, and an investigation showed that not an axle was sprung The car was wedged so tightly among small oak trees that one had to be cut down before it could be removed.
 We put on new wheels, stepped on the starter and were off" said the owner. Under it's own power the car was taken back to the road and driven to town at the top limit of speed permitted by law. I knew Essex construction to be sturdy. but my eyes were opened bv this acci- dent as to its real strength of body and chassis.

RESEARCH SHOW
 T0N TRUCK IS MOST POPULAR

One of the most thorough re- searches possible to make in the nAAllnS business was recently made hy the General Motors Truck com pany- It took in every form of city delivery. rural express routes and the general work of the farmers. When @Al of this information had been slffed and sorted 1t was found that Inc one ton truck will fit into more business than all other capacities combined
 Following this investigation the motor truck unit of the General Motors corporation made plans which permit of great increase in the production of one-ton trucks. And. this addition to the output naturally lowered the manufacturers s cost. hence the reduction of $500 in the selling price of GMC one-ton trucks. This particular truck enjoys world wide reputation for stamina,

for dependability and economy or operation. Thousands of the one ton chassis-standard of the United States government-were the motive power for ambulances operated III France by the allies. A far greater number have figured in the indus tries of America, and repeat orders prove how they have worked.
 The 1921 model of the one-ton truck is superior in many ways 10 earlier jobs. Incorporated in them is the new GMC engine which has done things even beyond the claims of the designers. Other mechanlcai betterments mark the chassis; there are electric lights and starter. ana other features which add to the ef- ficiency of the model. Announce ment also is made of reductions n other GMC models.

KNOW YOUR GAR
 SAYS SUPPLY MAN.

"Get acquainted with the inside of your motor car. Study it's charac- teristics. Get yourself into the habit of looking after it personally as much as possible. By so doing you will get the most out of your auto mobile and you will find a new satis- faction in owning car.''
 The foregoing is the 1vice of l.. H. Sorey manager of the Western | Auto Supply company, to all motor car owners
 Tn this day of simplified automo- bile mechanism" says MT. Sorey, | "the average owner is too often in | the habit of allowing the car to take care of itself. As .. matter of fact, | there is necessity for mechanical | knowledge in the actual operation of | the modern motor car. Expert en- ! gineers have so designed tile car that | women can drive it as well as men. | Nevertheless, the owner who simply | knows how to start his own car, | while he may never be called on for further knowledge concerning its workings, is losing a lot of pleasure which he could have at no expense.
 There are thousands of owners who pay absolutely no attention to the insides of their car and simply run it on until it stops, rio matter AOW EAtdS d SlKdlll ific uldCiiAiC 4S operating under. It is that class of owners who sometimes complain about the maintenance cost of their cars.
 "They not only fail to get com fortable riding qualities out of their cars, and they not only lose time and money while the car is being repaired at some garage, but they lose the keen enjoyment which one should get | OIlf of nWnincr taprfQCt a nI2CR Of mechanism as the modern autorno- ] bile.
 If every owner of motor car 1 studies his machine and learns t$e details of it's workings. he would soon become attached to it as the average sea captain is to his ship or the railroad engineer to his engine l And the car itself would benefit I thereby.
 Remember that your car is en- I abled to run only by the fact Of its being fabricated. You should be
 sure and keep the grease and oil l cups filled-this important informa- tion is being sounded by all manu- lecturers but I dare say there IS not
 one man in 50 that does this neces-
 sary task. Yet if they but realized
 the trouble and expense that would
 be caused later by this neglect you
 would find them working overtime on
 their cars.
 Another thing that should be done
 regularly is to go over all nuts nuts ana ana
 bolts, keeping them tight. This Will
 almost eliminate those rattles and
 squeaks that are so annoying. Few motorists realize what lot of pleasure and economy is possible by doing their own repairs. With the tools, repair materials, grease gun and other supplies available at the Western Auto Supply company 1t is both a source of much enjoyment and a valuable adjutant to your bank account" concluded Mir. Sorey. Baseball is displacing the wrest- ling game as Japan's national sport Japanese baseball fans are always sil- ent during the game.
