HIS DOLLAR CAME BACK

Here is a story from Ames, Iowa,
that is of interest. Thirty-five years
ago this summer, Roy Minear, then a
chunk of a lad living near Story City,
drove into Ames with a load of wa
termelons, which he sold there. The
silver dollar he received for the melons
was to be his own and was the first
one he ever owned. 1t was of the
coinage of 1882. For some years
Minear kept the dollar, but the time
came when he had to spend it. Before
he did so he denied the coin on both
sides with a rock. Minear, who is
now employed by a grocery firm a,
Sioux City. has made it a practice fol-
years to look at every dollar tina
came over the counter to him, in al
effort to get that dollar. A few day.
ago he bought a bill of lumber and il
the change was the long lost dollar
still dented, which had been missing
for IS years.

WHOSE FAULT?

A prominent Democratic newspaper
complains of the high taxes the
country had to pay in 1921. Well,
how does that reflect upon the Re-
publican administration? This ad-
ministration did not come into power
until March 4, 1921, and the costs of
government for that year had already
been fixed by the preceding admins
tration. The Republicans had forced
as many economies as they could, but
they were unable to compel the Dem
%ocratic regime to adopt effective re-
duction of public expenditures. The
criticism of taxes in 1921 is really a
criticism of the Democratic regime.

FAIR PROFIT NEEDED

What the farmers of the country
need is not an opportunity to borrow
money, on which they cannot pay the
interest, but an opportunity to sell
their products at a fair profit instead
of at a loss. Encouraging a farmer to
increase his debts when he cannot pay
the interest on what he now owes, is
no act of kindness.

BREAKS CONE
IN AUTO TIRES
ON INSIDE PLY
They Arc Often Called Stone
Bruises, Though Stones
Don't Cause Them.

A "stone bruise" 10 q term used to
describe an injury to tire caused by
striking some object with sufficient
force to cause the fabric to be brok-
en-. 1t need not be a stone that
causes the damage.
The break in the fabric may be in
only one ply or It may be In all Of
them: but in any case 1t is always the
inside ply that breaks first.
An inexperienced driver whose tire
gets a heavy blow from q stone or
curb usually looks over the outside
Of the tire to see II any damage has
been done. But the old driver knows
that II harm has been done the place
to look for It Is in the inside and
that any break in the fabric will be
registered on the inside ply first. says
@. #. Fisher Of the United States
Tire Company.
Normally the inside ply Is shorter
than the rest and each ply Is shorter
than any OF the others which are To-
Gated outside of il. This is because
1t is on the inside of the curvature
of the tire. Now II the tire is sud
denly compressed at some point to
the relative position of the plies ts re-
bersed, that is. the outside ply be-
comes. at this particular point, the
inside ply az regards the curvature
and the inside ply becomes tho out
side ply. as regards the curvature.
This has the effect Of stretching
the inside ply more than any OF the
others and. Of course, il the amount
OF the stretch is very great, the fab
ric will be broken.
II 1t should happen. as It often
does. that only one or two inner
plies are broken, there will not be
any signs of the injury on the out
side until a considerable time after
ward. This is because the othor
plies still unbroken will continue 10
hold against the air pressure even
though they will be under excessive
strain. But continued nexing Will
eventually break them also ana the
result may be a blow out which may
occur at any time, even on a perfect
ly smooth pavement
Another effect of a break In one
or two inner plies may be that from
continued bending the broken edges
of the fabric rub a hole In the inner
tube at that point. Sometimes the
air break Is so pronounced. espe-
cially in q fabric tire, that the tire
pressure forces the inner tube into
the break, and as this IL continually
closing and opening. as the tire rolls.
the action is like q pair OF pinchers
and cuts the tube.
II the tube Is chafed through or
cut after a bruise. such is described.
the air will pass directly through
the carcass and force the rubber
side covering. and sometimes the
tread. loose from the fabric. When
this happens the user generally
terms II a blowout and as a matter
of fact It Is; but contrary to the
opinion often held. 1t is seldom the
result Of a defect in manufacture.
1t can generally be traced 10 an
injury sustained sometime prior to
the final breaking down OF the tire.

RECKLESSAUT0

Cash Prize Offered for Most
Approbrious Term for Care

wrong side Of tho street, who
neglects his brakes. who tries to cut

ness or recklessness endangors the

The American Automobile Associa-
tion wants a name which will put
such q man in the same class as the
jay-waIker. A jay.walker In q per
son not sufficiently civilized to Cross

or she endangers public safety as

even more effective is the ridicule
carried by this term.

ful motorists in the country suffer
because of the few thousands rowtiy

to show these drivers that they do
not belong" Police records show
that a heavy percentage Of acci-
dents are due to the rocklessness of

Blame American Pep
for Berlin Accidents

The fact that street accidents
in Berlin have increased 500
per cent since 1913 has led to
the suggestion that one of the
causes may be the apparent
effort to put American pep"
into the city's everyday life.
One newspaper writer asserts
Berliners have become too
busy to greet friends in pass
ing; that the spirit of hustle
is disturbing the general rou-
tine, and that the citizens as
whole are growing nervous.
He deprecates "the attempt to
make Berlin street life look
like Forty-second street and
Broadway"
Official reports say most of
the accidents are due to speed
ing automobiles and careless
pedestrians, who step off the
sidewalks and walk the streets
in every direction without once
looking to see II they are in the
way Of vehicular traffic"
There is no ordinance regu-
lating pedestrian traffic. Even
at the more crowded intersec-
tions the public cross the
streets at will. taking their
chances with the automobiles.
street cars, omnibuses, trucks.
and horse cabs. There are no
traffic policemen In the Teuton
metropolis, but II has been de-
cided to establish such a force.
In the meantime the security
police" are doing this duty.
