Victor Hurts physical education
classes follow a definite program thru
out the week. Monday is given en-
tirely to basket ball. Each class is
divided into several teams, and the
champions are determined by elimina-
ton.
Tuesday is the day for instruction
in apparatus work.
Drill work and calesthenics occupies
the period on Wednesday.
Tests, such as the basket ball throw.
broad jumps, and the runs are given
each Thursday. These tests all have
a certain standard, which, If attained,
gives the boy 100 per cent. Anything
above or below this 100 per cent mark
Is graded accordingly. AS physical
ability varies from day to day, Mr..
Hurt gives the same test twice to each
student during the term, and averages
the two.
Friday is the day for games.
J Topics of the day are discussed by
the students in the advisory group of

CAR OWNER s
DUTY To KNOW
| HIS OWN AUTO
r. n. Harper, Durant Dealer
Here, Gives Tips to Those
Who Drive "Their Own"

AN automobile owners duty is TO
Know his car thoroughly" states r.
n. Harper, president Harper Motor
Company, local Durant dealer.
When he purchases the car, he
should have the dealer inform and in
struct him in regard to the basic
mechanical principles of it's construc.
ton and operation. He should de-
vote especial attention to those parts
which commonly require attention.
In the last few years, automobile
design has been so greatly simpli-
fled that almost anyone can familiar
iizieii himself with what is essential
TO the proper care and operation Of
his car.
This explains why the car whose
chassis is simplicity in itself is so
popular. 1t is profitable to have a
car whose each unit is mounted sep
arately, for then. the cost of service
Is cut down considerably. For in.

TIRE
|. IS NECESSARY
. To CASH SAVING
Stock Tubes and Castings
Often Called on to Garry
Excessive Loads. .

"A motorist can easily settle for
himself the question whether he
should equip his car with oversize
pneumatic tires. Only two consid-
erations are involved and the
problem is by no means a difficult
one. One Of the elements for con.
sideration is the weight the tires
are called on to carry and the
other relates to the degree of infla.
ton at which the motorist prefers
to use his tires.
Car manufacturers usually apply
as original equipment tires of a
size sufficiently large to meet the
car weights when equipped with
standard accessories and carrying
a full complement of passengers.
To support this load, however, II
Is necessary to maintain the full
initiation pressure as recommended
for the size of tire used.
With respect to the weight Of
the load. 1t Is surprising how rapid
ly extra car equipment such as
spare tires, bumpers and other
accessories run up the load the
tire is called on to carry.
With this added weight and the
addition of an extra passenger or
carrying a load that is much in ex-
cess of the load the car manu-.
facturer originally figured on when
he determined the original tire size
to be used.
On the subject of initiation II has
been found that car owners in their
desire for greater riding comfort
are prone to reduce the air press
ure In their tires. running them
much below the pressure recon-
mended by the tire manufacturers.
a practice which leads to early tire
failure.
II a car is subject to frequent over
loading, oversize tires should be used
according to the Technical Service
Department Of the United States
Tire Co. Moreover to do away with
the operation Of underinflated tires
and to enable the car user to gain
the maximum comfort possible con-
sistent with good tire milage. 1t is
necessary to use oversize tires that
are capable of carrying the car load
at a lower proportionate pressure.
1t is clear that IL II were not pos
sible for the car owners to obtain a
larger size tire to fit the size of rim
with which his car is equipped, his
problem of tire milage would be a
serious one. The tire manufacturer
has recognized this problem and has
produced an oversize tireee for each
riZe Of rim, thus enabling him to
equip his car with oversize tires for
the extra loads.
Cases exist where thesing'e-over
siZeing Of tires is not sufficient to
meet the owners needs. In that
case II is necessary that he either
reduce his loads or change his wheels
and rims to nake possible the dou-
ble-oversize tires without changing
the rim equipment.
Most car users will find that the
single oversizing Of tires will show
an improvement in their tire mile
age, an improvement that warrants
the extra cost Of the oversize tires.
As to the use Of oversize tires for
Fords and cars of that class, II IL
exceedingly important that oversize
tires be used, for these cars operate
very close to the maximum capacity
OF the sizes furnished as original
equipment. A change from fabric
to cord tires will usually meet the
need Of oversizing in this class.

CHALMERS SIX NOW
At LOWEST PRICE

THE announcement of the reduc'
ton in price Of the Chalmers Six to
$1,1S5 is one Of the most important
OF the recent price changes. as 1t es'
tablishes a new low mark for this
fine six-cylinder car" says II. g.
Leary. jr.
"The policy Of the organization
now producing the Chalmers Six has
been to make the car an outs;and'
ing value. Under price conditions
that have prevailed for the last year
the value of the Chalmers has been
very pronounced.
The new price makes II available
to a still greater number of people
who appreciate a really fine six cyl

Increasing proficiency has en-.

time by whole weeks. Our factory
Is equipped to handle the heaviest
aeronautical production on set
schedules and to make definite COM
pletiOn date promises and make
good on them.
OF navy design adapted from for
mer navy types the new ship will
embody several features now com.

eauipment for this class of non-rigid
airships.
Two union motors OF 120 horse
power each will be used, mounted
on Wingfoot type outrlggers after a
plan successfully carried out on tests
on other ships last year.
Radio equipment will be carried
and full supply Of modern type
parachutes, one for each member Of
the crew.
The new ~" Type will have an
envelope of $4,000 cubic feet capacity
16S feet long and 45 feet in diameter,
with a speed of As to 60 miles per
hour giving a cruising radius of from
1000 to 1900 miles with full mill

company operates 5000 vehicles.
Upward Of 10000 900 automobile
tires have been produced this year In
Akron, Ohio.
In Brazil 1t is necessary to obtain
as many licenses to drive an auto

the highways this year, and each
year hereafter will add to the num-
ber.
Because Of war losses and high
taxation some members of the nobili-
