Inner Tubes Need
 Close Attention,

If the motorist would have a min mum amount of trouble with his tires, he should give especial atten- tion to the tubes.
 The motorist upon purchasing a machine, should realize at the very start that one of the most important parts of the car, so far as his per- sonal comfort is concerned. is the inner tube. If this be taken care of all may be well, but if it is neglected, look out for the inevitable trouble
 ''ShoVld an inner tube, which de- mands even greater care than the casing, be run flat for even a short distance, it may be ruined by being ground between the rim and the cas- ing. Very often the tube becomes pinched between the bead of the cas- ing and the rim, this resulting in a puncture. To eliminate this trouble, initiate the tube slightly before plac- ing 1t within the casing.
 Damage is very often done by an improper application of tale or soap stone. If an insufficient amount of one of these materials Is used the tube will stick to the easing, or rim, while an oversupply of these materials will cause them to form in a cake and grind into the tube. Never place a wet tube in casing. Moisture will cause the soapstone to cake and eventually burn the tube. making 1t porous" says Mir. Sorey, branch man. ager of the Western Auto Supply agency, distributors of the India and Pharis tires and the Jumbo tube, the hardest tube on the market.

r FOREST SERVICE
 COOPERATING ON
 CAMPING GROUNDS

LOS ANGELES. Calf, May H. Uncle S3Tn's forest service is CO., operating with the towns in Southern California in the establishment of automobile camp grounds for tourists on wheels. Southern California cham bers of commerce and city officials recently got together in convention and standardized their auto camp service Now comes the government and announces that a series of free automobile camp grounds have been established in the national forests of California by the forest service. Many of these are equipped with garbage pits, tables, benches. fire places, etc.
 Nh announcing this innovation. the forest service states that in 1920. 1,500. 900 persons visited the national forests of California. Most of this number travelled by automobile and camped in the forests. In this con nection the government announces that campers will>be closely watched as last year they were responsible for 344 forest fires. It is estimated that this year will bring the number of visitors to the national forests of Cal ifornia up to 2,000,000.

ist should always remember to re- move all the sharp sand and gravel from the inside of the casing, it be- comes.almost impossible to keep them from working their way in. If these particles are permitted to remain be- tween the casing and the tube they are bound to grind holes in the tube causing numerous places where the air will escape. The motorist will see that upon removing a tube these small particles fall to the lower side of the casing, from which they may be readily removed; cloth or even the finger may be used.
 The Jumbo tube which we have had made to our special order, is a pure gum tube and constructed extra thick and is therefore tougher than the average tube and resists many of the tube troubles which other and lighter weight tubes are not heavy enough to withstand. It is a known fact that tube does not wear out, it rots out. A tube that resists de- preciation is, of course, the best tube. particularly the pure gum. together with the extra thickness which is combined in the Jumbo

Van Pelt Explains Why
 Tire Prices Have Dropped

J. R. Van Pelt, Firestone branch manager, when asked yesterday about tire prices, had this to say:
 "Firestone's new prices2 Lower Yes, a 30x3ta non skid casing new sells for $13.s5-this price went into effect May ?, at the same time 2 gen. eral reduction went into effect on cords, fabrics, grey and high test tubes
 'Firestone has now made it pos Sible for the car owner to buy first grade guaranteed castings at a price lower than ever before; no longer will it be necessary for the conservative buyer to ride on rebuilts, or seconds for this price revision brings tires within reach of all.
 This has been made possible by the loyalty, efficiency and constant alertness of the F'irestone orsaniza- tion, the elimination of all non-es- sentials. For instance-at Singapore We maintain an office and force of plete organization, and we also have men at the rubber centers of produc- tion, such as Java and Sumatra-
 By careful selection and buying we cut out the profits of the middle man. It is estimated that we save from five to six cents per pound on our purchases by having this organ ization, and when applied to the enormous total amount of rubber that we use, the saving IS tremendous.
 Thus rubber iz then sent on to the factnry- whexe another highly eff

MOTORCYCLE IS
 COMING IN I l
 |TS OW NACA|N

AKRON, Ohio. May 14.-f SpaciaD Ut is generally known ~.ct that the United States has more automo- piles than the rest of the world com bined, but it is probably not so well known that one can see more motor cycles on the streets of London than anywhere in this country.
 I Neverthless, according to figures compiled by the Firestone Tire and Rubber company, it is evident that it may not be long before the United States vastly predominates in this class of motor vehicle. Despite de- creased production in many lines there are more motorcycles registered this year than ever and they are be- ing put into many lines of service previously untouched.
 Before the war the motorcycle seemed to have been looked upon chiefly as means for pleasure riding, but it is now in great demand by po- lice departments, postoffices, messen- gers and telegraph companies, while many merchants use. them for de- livery purposes exclusively
 Riding to work on. a motorcycle is common enough nowadays.
 It is an interesting fact also, that whereas a few years ago motorcycle clubs were practically unheard of, today lnere IS scafcety city or town without one. Many have buildings of their own, New York and Chicago having quite pretentious places. Pic nics, gypsy" tours and local hill climbs are reported as other motor cycle activities coming into popular vogue.
 Firestone figures show that more people attended motorcycle races in the United States in 1920 than at tended any other sport, with the ex- ception of baseball.
 Nor are bicycle activities tagging. Ride bicycle seems to be grow ing popular as a national slogan, and the wheel seems to be staging a fine come back" But there should be some provision for the youngster to ride in safety. By setting aside cer- tain streets in cities. where the boy or girl may ride without jeopardizing life or limb-where crowds and fast moving autos are barred-the riders are given an opportunity to enjoy the sport without being compelled to use the sidewalks or gutters.
