HARDING ASKS ROADS
FOR RATE REDUCTION

Washington, D. C.-ReQuest was
made by President Harding at con-
ference with 10 of the leading rail-
road executives Of the country at a
White House dinner conference for
the cooperation of the larger roads
of the country with the interstate
commerce commission in voluntary re.
auctions of railroad rates. An agree
ment was reached for the creation Of
a special committee to take up the
matter further.
The rate matter was gone over dur
ing the conference, which was also
participated in by Secretary Hoover,
and it was declared in White House
statement issued after the meeting
had terminated that the railroad eX
ecutives were unanimously in favor of
assisting the restoration of business
by such rate action as they might fiE&
possible to take
Railroads we're directly asked, a
White House statement said, to bring
about lower freight charges on a plan
first publicly outlined in a study
which Secretary Hoover presented to
the interstate commerce commission
during its hearings in the general rate
investigation last year This involves
cutting freight charges on coal, steel,
farm products, minerals and other
heavy low-priced basic raw materials
1t also involves policy of letting
freights on high.grade, hgh.priced
finished materials remain at approx
imately their present levels, and prob
ably leaving passenger fares untouch-
ed, too.

VASHON MOVIE

Pauline Frederick Appears in

lighted Movie Goers

This little squib is not a paid

evening. The title Of the picture
was Salvage" and the leading
role was played by Pauline Fred.
crick. We are free to say that
while our taste may be plebian,
Pauline Frederick is our iavorite
movie actress, and the picture we
are talking about was morally
uplifting from beginning to end.
A great change has come over
the class Of pictures being shown
now and what was shown a few
months ago. The drinking, sug-
gestivc stuff has been largely EN-
asculatcd, and The whole tcndcn-
cy now is to entertain, and Incl,
dentally lead up to the lesson that
virtue trimphs in the end and
selfismess and avaricc brings its
own punishment.
The sweet, maternal, spirit that
lowered over Pauline Frederick
all through Salvage" cannot but
help all who see it, and especially
the selfish erich man. and the
girl who puts her love Of children
above pleasure offered by the
world. SO long as DIR. Orlob
gives us such pictures the people
Of Vashon-M aury island should

SPEAK, OH MOUNTAIN

Tell us how many thousand years
Have laid their SHOWS on thy
brow,
To swell thy mighty flood of
tears
That water the valleys belowY
Does frost astir beneath thy crest
Oft loosen the dread snow
slide,
Burst the ice that letters thy
breast
Into crevasses deep and wide?
Who set the forest at thy feet
In waves of everlasting green
Laid wealth beneath thy snow and
Sleet
In mines no human eye hath
scent
Where choice seeds sown by fairy
hand
To bloom mid the melting snow
Who chose the plants that best
can stand
Where wintry winds ccaseless-
ly blow?
That mount was God, the red
man told,
The Great Spirit dwells there
alone;
Scom not faith in the legend old
Ye who have no faith of your
own.
Better pray with him to that
peak,
Or to a foaming waterfall,
Than worship self, mans homage
seek,
And pray to no God at all.

DECORATION DAY
FITTINGLY KEPT
Large Assemblage Gather at Island Cemetery
to Decorate Graves Of Loved Ones

Tuesday was an ideal Puget
Sound day. The sun, was bright
and warm, and a cool breeze from
the north added the touch neccs-
sary for perfect comfort. At
ten o'clock several hundred had
assembled at the cemetery for the
purpose of engaging in the usual
exercises appropriate to our ma
tional memorial day. The ser
vices were under the auspices OF
the local GAR. post, and the
ranks have been so thinned that
only half a dozen veterans were
seen on the marches to the divers
graves of fallen comrades. The
six who participated were Il. Il.
Van Olinda, j. s. Markham, 5. 5.
Heath, A. D. Kingsbury, h. e,
Brown and Capt. G. A. Barton.
A fitting ceremony was con-
Quoted at the Memorial Monu-
mcnt consisting of the regular
GAR. ritualis:ic service and the
choir rendered some fine patriotic
songs. The leading parts OF the
speaking were tlhcn by Rev. ).
p. Brokaw, who recited two very
tne original POEMS which were
heartily applal ed, and Rev Bnr-
ringer who spoke briefly on the
consecrated ground of the soldier
dead.
The most touchjag part Of the
program was the flag drill by IA
school girls, who had been train.
ed by Mrs. Kline, and the manner
in which they went through with
their different marches without
being prompted made it all the
more impressive. The girls were
about even in size and did their
drill work perfectly. Their names
are: Virginia Beall, Constance
Beall, Emily Cutler, Mildred Cur.
It's, Mary Mace, Gladys Olson
Elizabeth Corbin, Katherine Gar,
vim, Shige Takai, Lille Bailey
Naomi Tjomslmd, Linea Lind,
berg, Virginia Gilfillan and Dor
othy Mcdonald.
One noticeable part of the day
was the profusion of Flowers
everywhere, the number of world
war veterans present, the SINGER
ity with which the flowers were
strewn, and the feeling of glad
ness that Rev. Harmelmg's peace
benediction was true in fact as
we'll as words.

 It Is believed there Is unlimited ecope for the hydrautomat on streams where hydrullc power developments are not feasible because of the small amount of fall. One of the first applications Is expected to be on irrigation projects.
 In a broad sense, according to the inventor. the purpose of the hydraa- tomat is to convert the contained eE- ergy of large quantities of water it low head into that of smaller quantity of water at a high head, or to compel a stream to hoist part of itself up over the land for com mercial or agricultural purposes. The princviple is gixed; the application is to be determined by local require ments
 World patent rights have been is sued It appears that in the world s inventive records the principle of the hydrautomat has been remotely approached, but never attained.

London, July S.-f Special. )-A water lifting apparatus which seems to flout the natural law that water cannot run uphill, and by which the tremendous energy of the rising tides may be harnessed for use by man, is an invention of Thomas G.

Something to Remember

Never park a car in the center of highway near fire plug, at street intersection, just around a curve or corner, on a hill, partly on the pavement. in a dark spot without lights, in front of theatre, on soft ground, nor near emergency entran- ces or exits of hospitals.

Tire and Gns Records

Keep q careful record of the number of miles run and compare it with the records of each month past for gaso- line and tires. In this way it is pos sible to tell what make of tires gives the best results and if the number of gallons of "gas" increases the cause can then be investigated and adjusted
The Birmingham age-herald., 1922-07-09
When Brake. Go wronp

The only safe move if car should stop or stall while going up a hill and the brakes refuse to hold would be to back the car crossways across the road, steering the rear end toward a bank or curve. This should be done immediately the car comes to a stand still, not after 1t has started back ward down the hill.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1922-07-09
The Battery nnd It. Cnre

self-starting and electric lighting systems require efficient batteries. For this reason the battery should receive careful attention. It should be inspected frequently and the plates of the cells kept covered with elec- trolyte. A little distilled water ad- ded at frequent intervals may obviate the necessity of new battery.

Rear Wheel Noises

scraping sound in a rear wheel is sometimes caused by sand working in between the brake band and drum. or more commonly by either inner or outer brake bands, or parts which op- crate them. being in contact with the brake drum.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1922-07-09
Tire Logic

Tires should be neither under-in- Hated nor over-inflated. If too soft, they will heat up and wear out quickly. If they are too hard, they make harder riding and require more gasoline consumption, because the soft tire wraps itself around an obsta cle. whereas hard tire does not yield but must be pushed over the obstruc- ton.

To Avoid n Collision

II car should suddenly drive across the path of your car or if a car ahead should turn to the left as You were starting to pass it, turn your car quickly in the same direction tahen by the other car, at the same 1 time slowing your cars speed, If an attempt were made to bring yo1r car to stop without turning the nro- bability is that you could not stop in time to avoid a collision,
 Road Rules
 Cultivate the hand-signal habit.
 Never dash by street cars as they are about to stop.
 Don't drive spasmodically. It keeps the driver behind worried.
 hememper that the pedestrian at the crossing has right to cross.
 SLOW down and keep to the right as you come to the crest of A hin.
 LOOK out for children, instead of ex pecting them to look out for you.
 When the driver behind wants to pass, slow down and draw over to tba right. It Is safer to have him speed ing ahead than alongside.
 Avoid ruts and save the tires.
 When the brakes are not working get them fixed immediately.
 Less use of the brakes lowers the DilI TOT tires, gasoline and repairs.
 To avoid breaking spark plugs use wrench that bears m all six sides Obey the manufacturers rules as to fabrication; he knows more about .be car than you do.
 When soldering the battery con nections always use pure lead as fin compositions will corrode.
 Always stop If some unusual no,so ueXel0na on n serious damage may be prevented.
 Never rub in circles when cleaninr the body of the car with a chamois Always rub in straight lines.
 Avoid letting an automobile stand Tn the sun in hot weather because of the tires. Choose shaded spot if possible.
 The gasoline level in the carbure- tor varies from an eighth to six- teenth of an inch below the top level of the spray nozzle.
