ranged, the background of white
being relieved with trailing bam-
boo and ferns. The altar was
lighted with numerous candles
in Cathedral candle sticks, the
color scheme being white and
green.
Prior to the wedding hour Miss
Carrie May Hedgepeth, of Lum-
berton, cousin of the groom,
wearing apricot taffeta with sill
yer accessories, corsage of or.
chids and valley lilies, with Mr..
LeGrand Everett, Jr., entered and
took their places within the
choir rail. Miss Hedgepeth at
the organ rendered: Media.
ton" from That's by Massenet,
with vocal solo i love you," by
Carl Sobeski, delightfully."- sang
by Mr.. LeGrand Everett, Jr.
Preceded by the pastor, Rev.
Bruce Benton, the party entered
the church in the following or
der: Ushers, w. N. Everett, Jr.
and Isaac London, down the left
aisle, Beverly Payne and Cornell

OWNERS SHOULD
 AVOID CHANGES IN INF LAT | ] N

More tires are taken from service due to under imitation than from any other cause. There exists so much unintentional neglect, indifference and lack of knowledge as to imitation that We know Of no more urgent ad- monition we can give automobile owners than this: Tires must be pumped up hard if they are to give maximum mileage" So states a bull letin just received from the service department of the Spreckels Saw age" Tire company.
 If tires are kept properly inflated the principal cause of many tire troubles will be eliminated. Repair shop statistics show that 75 per cent of all tire troubles are due to in- sufficient imitation. Under-inflatio will cause tires to bruise readily and to jab easily, because there is not the resistance in an under Inflated tire that there is in one that Is properly inflated. This is particularly true of the overloaded tire, and the majority of tires are frequently overloaded.
 Pneumatic tires are constantly sub ject to a flexing action. When under
 inflated this kneading and bending action is so greatly increased that it weakens the carcass and eventually causes a break in the fabric, a rim cut or a blowout. On the other hand ample imitation checks the movement within the tire and reduces the ele- ments of friction and heating; and, in the case of a properly constructed tire. normal shape is retained and the shocks and strains of the road are

REO SHIPPING
 SPEEDWAGONS
 BY TRA|NLOAD

Another indication of a return to normalcy and a further proof that business conditions are getting back to their old time footing is evidenced by the shipment Rec Speed Wagons which has just been sent out by the Rec Motor Car company at Lansing This is the second solid train load of Reos to leave the Lansing factory within a period of three weeks. As in the previous case. the train load is bound for the east, consigned to the Linscott Motor Car company of Boston. Rec officials believe that this is the first trainload of trucks ever shipped for commercial use. At least it is believed that it is the first train load of the same capacity and model ever sent out.
 The first train load. about equally divided between passenger cars and speed wagons, was, shipped to Bos- ton two weeks ago. 1t comprised 237 units and this shipment was scarcely on its way when another ing for an additional train of speed wagons from the Lansing factory and the order is on it's way.
 Particular significance is attached to the fact that this train load ship ment consists entirely of Rec Speed Wagons Upon this fact is based the contention that business conditions look brighter than ever before. It is pointed out that if one section of the country has sufficiently recovered from the general depression of a year ago to use Reo Speed Wagons in train load lots, the outlook is surely to be regarded as encoura ging.
 According to the officials of the Rec Motor Car. company the recent prices are not entirely the answer to the greatly increased demand for the speed wagon. It is believed that this | train load order of Rec products is simply an indication that business is pretty nearly back to its old status and upon comparing figures. the Rec
 officials claim that the demand is onlv a normal one and that is due
 entirely to the fact that he Rec
 Speed Wagon is serving in the many and varied lines of business which
 are once more stabilizing.
 l Business did accelerate at the time

 as their predecessoO and that th' demand for these has been just a:
 great as for those on which the pric, was lowered. Now comes a greater
 demand than ever for the Rec ! Speed Wagon, which is taken a proof that things are looking bette, | than ever before not only in tn
 cities but in the country. as well
 That whole train loads of speed wag
 ons are speeding across the countr,
 to serve the eastern market is cer tainly encouraging.

evenly distributed.
 A safe rule to follow. and one that is easy to remember, is: Tires should be kept inflated to 20 pounds of pressure per inch of cross sec tion." For instance, a 3h finch tire should be inflated to 70 pounds. a 5-inch tire to 100 pounds, etc. Tire pressure should be tested frequently. It is not wise to trust to the eye or touch: a pocket pressure gauge should be used.
 It is also pointed out that the auto ist should not attempt to compensate for changes in temperature by chang ing the air pressure in his tires. The Savage tire people claim that the air pressure should be kept constant de- spite variations in temperature and climatic conditions

INGENIOUS FOOT REST

Few veteran drivers need-to be told how much comfort results from the installation of foot rest just behind the accelerator pedal, so that the arch of the foot is supported, Not only does this prevent leg strain. but it actually makes for more delicately responsive control of the accelerating function. An admirable foot rest iof this kind may be made by cutting through a section of a worn out tire and fastening it to the floor boards with small screws. driven through the beads.
