EVEREST TOP STILL uATRoD
But British Explorers In Recent A.
tempt Got to Height Never
Previously Attained.

The highest point above sea level
ever reached by a human being afoot,
27,300 feet, was attained, with the aid
Of oxygen-breathing apparatus. by
two members of the Mount Everest
expedition at noon. the 9th of last
May, says Henry s. White In the Pop
ular Mechanics Magazine. This brought
the explorers within 1.702 feet Of the
summit, the highest point on the
earth's surface. The final attempt
was to have been made June 6, but
the monsoon broke June 8, definitely
frustrating any further efforts for this
year at least. When the monsoon
breaks on Mount Everest. there is no
alternative but to get off the noun
tain as soon as possible.
1t has now been definitely proved
that the mountain itself at the highest
points reached is not difficult to climb.
and the two explorers who came so
near to reaching the actual summit
were able to proceed along the north
face without ropes. The one and only
obstacle that made the summit unat-
tainable was the bad weather, and
with the monsoon left out, It is GER
tain that the summit will be reached
at the next attempt. The two explor-
ers who reached this highest point
were Capt. Geoffrey Bruce. one Of the
leaders Of the expedition, and George
Finch. a scientist attached to It

Rough Men and Robins.

A few days ago a car Inspector,
looking over a coal train at Arkville.
N. Y, discovered a birds nest on the
top Of a journal box Of an empty car.
Investigation disclosed two baby rob-
ins In the nest. The orphan birds at
once became the center of attraction
for the yard men and the various train
crews. 1t was quite evident the young
robins needed parents.
In an effort to find the home Of the
young travellers it was learned hal
the empty car had been picked up at
West Davenport, 81 miles distant. A
delegation of s~witchmen. yardmen,
trainmen and ather Interested persons
Immediately waited on the division

on to IN engine and taken back to
West Davenport, where 1t was spotted
In he railroad yard at the exact place
from which it had been taken. The
frantic mother bird found her little

CARRIES MUSIC MANY MILES
Horn Said to Have Transmitted
Sounds Distinctly for a Most
Remarkable Distance.

A length of 35 feet and an open
ing Of IL feet square are the meas
urements of the worlds largest horn
for broadcasting Dusic received by
radio. This giant horn Is in success
full daily operation at Idora park. a
public amusement resort in California.
The b~roadcasting capacity Of this
huge instrument is sufficient to carry
radio music throughout an area Of
approximately 20 square miles.
In addition to the general interest
in its sheer size and simplifying range
II is of absorbing Importance to the
radio expert because of the fact that,
through the use of its electro-dynamic
reproducer, such true tones have been
produced as TO eliminate what is
technically known as "distortion-"
One thousand feet of clear airplane
spruce lumber went into the construc-
ton Of this horn. The engineers who
built 1t were confronted with difficult
ties Of design and erection, owing to
its giant size. 1t is equipped with
a late type of radio reproducer and

OF course the construction Of the
horn was more or less in the nature
Of q spectacular "stunt" on the part
Of the amusement park, but the basic
idea is nevertheless impressive. 1t is
just another indication Of q far-reach-
ing influence which warrants atten-
ton.

This idea Is not new. The secretary

The German Socialist-and the 50

country to confiscate all property, and
they make no bones Of their position

step possible to increase taxation, feel
that In time taxes can be raised to the
point where they will make all prop

will they have actual socialism.

M daily press last week carried q
most insignificant item to the effect
that the members of the Socialist
party would be permitted. in different
states, to cooperate with so-called
Tabor organizations in their peiiti-

this, not understanding what it means,
but it means q great deal for the fu-

CODY MAN WRITES OF

Carl Johanson who left Cody in Oc-
tober for a visit with the home folks
IN Sweden, writes that he sailed from
New York Friday , the 18th, had a
fne trip across and received the En-
terprise upon the day Of his arrival
which he calls service.
His letter contains much interesting
information, and he has this to a of
prices as compared with wages and
the cost of living in America:
Everything in Norway is very high
compared with working mans wages,
much higher than it is in America,
figuring the same way, in other words,
an American laborer buys more for
ais wages than does a Swede or Nor
wegian, but we get more for our
dollar in Norway and Sweden than
we did in America.
"a meal on the train in Norway
costs 5 crowns, a little less than a
dollar the same meal in America
would cost a dollar and fifty cents or
more. A o in Christiana costs IL
crowns, a little over $1.00; same room
in America would have cost at least
$500. Five and a half crowns to the
dollar in Norway. three and seventy
hundredths crowns in Sweden to the
dollar.
Across the line in Sweden things
are a little cheaper, Norwegian silver
and copper money has the same value

WALLACE REID ID
 DRIVE CAR NO. 13
Matinee Idol Enters Indianap- oIiS Race to Start
 May 30
By AssocIated Press.

Indianapolis, April 15.-Wallace Reid, moving picture actor, who re- gently filed his entry in the annual 5o0mile automobile race to be held at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway May 30, will drive car No. 13. 1t was said here today.
 Twelve drivers entered the race ahead of Reid and as has been done for several years, T. E. Myers. man ager of the speedway. planned to eliminate the number IS. Reid, how ever, insisted that he be given the number and the speedway official consented. MT. Myers said car bear ing No. IS had not started in the contest since 1913.
 Reid is due to arrive in Indianapo- lis on May to begin training for the race. He already has been grant, ed drivers license by the Ameri- can Automobile associatiomn, under whose rules the Indianapolis race is conducted. The only other requisite for competing in the local race is ability to drive racing car to the satisfaction of the speedway off, cials.
 The executive of a motion picture concern for which Reid has been act ing has declared, it is said, that he will not permit the actor to compete in the race if it is "humanly possi- ble to stop him." Reid, however, is said to have asserted he intends to go through with his plans.

FOREIGN TRADE
 SHOWS GAINS

Foreign trade Is upon the threshold of better days. according to a state ment by the Cadillac Motor Company of Detroit.
 When Europe can afford to increase it's buying, it is a pretty fair indi- cation that Europe is on the road to financial recovery. And when orders come in from every section of the world, 1t is even greater indication that the whole world is getting back to its normal stride.
 The Cadillac Motor Car Company announced this week that there was an increase in foreign shipments since the first of the year, ranging from S7 per cent to 63l per cent greater than during the same period of 1921.
 The following figures showing the increase in Cadillac shipments to several countries over the volume of early 1921, indicate a widespread ye- covery of the automobile business: Buenos Aires, 213 per cent; Chris tiania, Norway, 37 per cent; Geneva, Switzerland 135 per cent; Havana Cuba. 315 per cent; London. England, 13s per cent; Sidney. Australia, 42O per cent; Utrecht, Holland 651 per cent.
 Cadillac shipments have been made to the following countries since January l. 1922: Egypt. Chile. Jugo- Slavia, Argentina. India, Peru. Vene- zuela, Norway, Turkey. Switzerland, Manchuria, Cuba. Hawaii. Jamaica, Bolivia. Honduras, New Zealand, Englsnd, Spain. Mexico, Africa. Por- to Rico, Santo Domingo. San Saliva dor. Shanghai, Stockholm, Australia and Holland.
 ITO us. this increase in foreign business is most encouraging, con crete evidence that the whole world is coming back financially" states Lynn McNaughton general sales manager of Cadillac. 'It Is natural, of course, that this recovery of busi- ness affects the top of society rath- CT than the bottom of society first. We are also pleased with this in- creasing business from all parts or the world as a tribute to Cadillac. which for years hes led in the Am erican quality car trade abroad"

LEARN LANGUAGE
 OF AUTOMOBILE
Gear Shift Lever Speaks a Message to Trained
 Inspectors

If you would learn of the automo-
 bile, let your motor talk to you by
 means of its own private telephone exchange.
 It can be done. Every car is equip ped with an instrument to transmit it's own voice, an instrument as old as automobiles, and as much needed as gasoline.
 The gear shifting lever Is the tele- phone on your car. You have prob ably never used 1t for any other pur- pose than changing speeds. But according to Motor Sales corp oration. Maxwell distributors, this un- assuming metal rod serves a much different and equally necessary role in the testing room of the Maxwell 1 plants
 Picture an immense room perhaps l 2O0x250 feet in a small corner ot the
 space occupied by the Maxwell Mo | tor corporation in their Detroit fac

 running under it's own power at a | speed that would drive a car apout
 90 miles per hour. They run this way
 for hours, eight. 10. sometimes longer. ] The roar in the brick walled room is i constant and all-enveloping. In here ] the human voice must be pitched at 4 just the right note even to be dis
 tinguished above the motor -tumult. There are inspectors in corps. Each

 what he can see of the motors work.

 roar and rumbling of the ensemble of | engines, there comes to him precisely
 what this one motor has to say of its inner self The perfect motor Is distingui she d by a low, almost musical humming.
 Foreign noises, however slight, are indicative of improper adjustment. Before any motor can pass the edu- cated ear of the inspector 1t must be in perfect voice without trace of com plaint.
 The inspector, of course, must have absolute command of the language of the motor. He must translate what ne hears into shop talk, that expert
 mechanics may correct any possible errcrs disclosed.
 Much depends on these inspectors the reputation of the manufacture and the car dealer, the satisfaction and service given the car buyer. High est grade materials are wasted unless the inspection system is perfect and complete.
 Naturally, the telephone" men in the block room are placed there only after years of training. They must known the precise meaning of every sound. There can be no guess work. Their diagnoses are worthless and costly unless accurate.
 According to Mir. Bailey, you can hear what the motor in your own car has to say, but he wouldn't advise you to make adjustments thereon. un- less you know the language.

MOTORISTS BEWARE. THE STONE BRU|SE.
By G. F. FISHER, United States Tire Company.


 A stone bruise" is the term used to describe an injury to tire caused by striking some object with suffi- cient force to cause the tire fabric to be broken. It need not be a stone that causes the damage.
 The break in the fabric may be in only one ply or 1t may be in all of them but in any case 1t is al- ways the inside ply that breaks first An inexperienced driver whose tire gets a heavy blow from a stone or curb usually looks over the out side of the tire to see if any dam age has been done. But the old driver knows that if 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 in- side ply first.
 Normally the inside ply is shorter than the rest and each ply Is shorter than any of the others which are located outside of 1t. This Is be- cause it is on the inside of the cur vature of the tire. Now if the tire is suddenly compressed at some point to a considerable extent the rela- tive position of the plies is reversed, that is, the outside ply becomes, at this particular point, the inside ply as regards the curvature and the inside becomes the outside ply, as regsrds curvature.
 This has the effect of stretching the inside ply more than any of the others and. of course. If the amount O. stretch is very great, the fabric will te broken.
 If it 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 outside until a considerable time afterward. This is because the other plies still unbroken will continue to hold against the air pressure even though they will be under excessive strain. But continued flexing will eventually break them also and the result may be a blowout which may occur at any time, even on a perfectly smooth pavement.
 Another effect of 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. Some times the break is so pronounced, especially in a fabric tire, that the air pressure forces the inner tube into the break, and as this is continually closing and opening, as the tire rolls, the action is like a pair of pincers and cuts the tube.
 If the tube is +chafed through or cut after a bruise, such as 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 1t a blowout and as a matter of fact 1t Is; but contrary to the opinion often held. 1t is seldom the result of a defect in manufacture. It can generally be traced to an injury sus- tained some time prior to the final breaking down of the tire.
