Here IS a message of great
Importance TO those who haze
neOer experienced the superior
comfort of riding on genuine
lou air pressure tires.
ODAY car owners want to know just two
things about balloon tires-their ability TO
give greater comfort, and ability to give long
UUear.
In too many instances one characteristic is
found without the other
That is, many balloon tires must be run too
hard for comfort, in order to save them from
excessive wear.
Or if the tires are run soft enough to give full
balloon cushioning, they UOear TOO rapidly
In u. Royal Balloons this trouble has been
entirely avoided by two outstanding achieve
ments in tire building.
Y Achievements which make it possible to run
U. S. Royal Balloons at true low air pressures
with absolute safety to the tires.
The new flat "Low-Pressure Tread"
"ieulOuteS the "elgnC evenly over much larger
tread surface than round tread balloon. The
wear is slow and even.
Latex-treated Web Cord construction
gives this famous tire that exceptional combina-
ton of strength and flexibility which permits
perfect balloon cushioning.
AS result Of these u S. Rubber Company
developments, u S. Royal Balloons have been
established 'the Balloon Tire Princi pie at

ID. & L." Chats A Bull Cannot Be
 Skinned Twice

An eccentric King wanted the skin of a certain Bull, the only one in captivity. He told two convicts he would free the one who brought the skin.
 Both went and skinned a Bull. The King, upon seeing the two skins said: "A Bull cannot be skinned twice!" The cleverer convict answered.: Your Majesty, that's what I thought, but the reason why that Bull was the only one of its kind, was because it had TWO skins!" Both were set free The King was deceived.
 
 A person cannot be fooled twice--and still some ARE! But the latter consist of NOT those who buy an arti- cle and get fooled, but the Storekeeper W h o thinks THAT perscn is going to come back and get fooled again!
 No one can EVER be de- ceived here; because if, per- chance, an article does not give complete satisfaction, we'll gladly make good! ;DauiasnN & Isueuthal ~-soS 7 a~sp ,ss"I s.H,zcHs< z- srAs esss

QUICK STARTING
 IN COLD WEATHER
Army Private Shows How tO
 Pep Up Ahplane

Camp Skeel. Oscoda, Mich, Feb. Elf the winter war maneuvers or the first army pursuit group now Tn progress here have taught the fllers nothing else, they have at least revealed how a cold motor that has stood all night in zero temper ature can be started without delay. Private Thomas J. Rogers made the discovery yesterday.
 | Three hours were required to get the motors of the nine pursuit planes going prior to Tuesdays flight to the Straits of Mackinac. If such delay occurred in wartime, according to Major Thomas G. Lan- phier, enemy planes could travel l 500 miles over the American lines.
 Private Rodgers solved the pro- blem by squirting ether into the in- take stack from an oil can. AS he squirted the ether he capped the in- take stack with a gloved hand. Meanwhile two mechanics turned the starter crank, spinning the en- zine. The gloved hand regulated the air supply and kept a rich mix ture flowing into the engine from the gasoline line, reinforced by fre- quent squirts from the ether can.
 The ice cold engines snorted and baked as usual for little while and then surrendered unconditionally to the ingenuity of Rodgers. Several Of the engines were turning over three minutes after they were first crank ed. All were humming at the end Of fifteen minutes.
 Solution of this ouick-starting problem in cold climates has been one of the things, officers here said, that have delayed plans for estab- lishment of an aviation base in Alas ka.
 Today's "war problem" calls upon the first pursuit group to prevent "enemy" aircraft of every type from crossing over the American troops which are theoretically engaged all along the line between Standish and Trarerse City in battle" with the "enemy."
 The winter was maneuvers will end tomorrow when all personnel equipment and supplies will be transferred by air back to the rall' head at Selfridge field.

 Briefs.
 The basketball team of the plain- vile branch of the Hartford county Y. M. c. A. won its fifth straight victory IF to 9 last night in the first home game of all time with Sims bury as tho losing team. This prac- tically clinches the pennant in the Pennington Valley league and points the way to Plainvile playing the winners of the Connecticut Valley branch for the championship of the country.
 Last nights game was played in the new arena formed in the old store room Of the CahiIl property which now is owned by F. l.. Ben zon. The score at half time was 10 to ? in favor of Plainville.
 A small crowd of fans attended and they came away with the con- viction that Plainville has a real basketball team. Berry and Martin were the mainstays for Plainville while Santer was Simsburys best mar.
 The interior of the court was cold and this tended to stiffen I'D the players. Consequently the game was much slower than the others which have been played and the locals failed 10 show their usual speed. The low passing game instituted by Coach Allan Bailey baffled the sims bury team completely and applause was drawn from the onlookers on more than one occasion by the speed and team work shown by the Plain- vile payers.
 Smsbury flashed the best basket ball of the evening in the second half and tied PlainvilIe.
 The next game on the local floor will be played on Saturday and the public is invited to attend. Seats have been installed to accommodate 150 and the proceed of the door will be devoted 10 fund to install heat in the building. Later on, if the treasury of the team is large enough. space will be broken through an end wall large enough for a bleacher section.
 The eyes of the members of the group are now turned to the county championship and with the backing of the people of the town, Plainvile will be on the amateur basketball map when the season closes. Last nights score was as follows p,oinx-:tIf,

PLAN GRAND STAND
 F0R LOCAL CROWDS
 !, kensineton Athletic Club Will . Provide for $50 People ' %&y - TO IMPROVE BASEBALL PARK
East Berlin Boys Club Elects Of- ficers-Death of Charles Norby- Radio Fans Still Bothered By Pest Other Items of Interest.

A grand stand for seating about $50 people is being planned by the Kensington Athletic Club. The stand, if purchased, will be erected at the Percival avenue field in .kensing- ton and will be a great improve mont.
 2 The project has been under con- temptation by the club for some time, but it has only recently called for estimates from concerns capable of doing the work. 1t Is expected that between $500 and $1 ,000 will be spent in having the stand erected.
 4 grand stand has been needed since baseball games started at the field. The crowds which increased considerably last season were forced to stand, Although some of the more fortunate ones were able to sit in automobiles. It is believed that the erection of a grand stand will bring out more people to the games, since they may be assured of com fort while the contests are in pro- gress.
 Several concerns have bid on the project and several kinds of struc- tures have been discussed. The com mittee in charge has formulated no definite idea as to what the grand stand shall embedy, being occupied nt the present time with hearing what the firms have to offer.
 According to information today improvements to the field will not stop with the building of a grand stand. Several other ideas are being considered by the club, with refer erce to making the park one Of the best in this locality.
 It is hoped. to have the grand stand in place when the opening game of the coming season IS play ed. The other improvements Will DC made as soon as possible.
 Boys Club Elects
 Donald Turner was elected presl- dent of the East Berlin Boys club at the annual meeting held recently. Other officers eletced were, vice. president, Charles Cudahy; secretary Eugene Cudahy, and treasurer, JacK Walsh. A social and dinner were held after the business meeting
 There are now about 50 members in the club. Much credit is due William Ogle, physical director for the manner in which he has con ducted the activities of 'the club during the past year. The club owes much of its success to his untiring efforts and sacrifice of time.
 The boys have enjoyed each affair held during the year, the activities having been confined mostly to phy- sical training and games. In the course of the coming year il is ex- pected that the organization will branch out and will take up course in debating and parliamentary law under Mir. Ogle's direction.
