practically all the worlds supply
comes from the Netherlands Indies
and Malaga, In the Pacific war
zone, the average motorist has no
choGe In the matter Of taking care
Of his tires putting away his car
for the duratyn.
The things that can be done to
prolong the lie of any tires, new or
used, are numerous but simple. The
main thing is to keep them properly
inflated. It has been said that five
pounds Of underinflation cuts tire
life 20 per cent. Check and REIN
fate once q week.
II you have q new spare tire IN
your equipment. you're lucky. but
unless you u5e 1t you're bound 70
lose heavily on your investment.
An inactive soare tire has been de-
scribed by on. tire maker as similar
to an unused muscle, and liability.
Recommended is the switching OF
wheels, including the spare, every
5000 = 5000 miles.
How t. Switch Tires.
The switching recommended
places the spare tire on the lett
front wheel; he left front is moved
to the left reer, which is transferred
to the right front. The right 'front.'
is moved to the right rear and the
right rear to the spare holder.
The things to avoid II you would
increase the life Of your tires in
cludes fast starting, fast driving and
fast stopping bruising the castings
by backing into curbs or by striking
road bumps and holes. A thing TO
remember Is that oil is the natural
enemy of ruboer. It acts on rubber
like acid on metal. Don't park your
car In an o.i-coated garage moor.
S. P. That:her. manager OF the
fire engineering and service depart
ment OF the United States Rubber
Co.. maintains that the safe life
of a tire at so miles per hour Is
only half of what it is at 80 miles
an hour. AT 10 miles an hour IT
falls to only 80 per cent Of normal
expectancy. Thus moderate speed
Is recommended If you would keep
your car rolling on safe rubber.
Uneven or Spotty Wear.
Uneven or spotty wear OF tires
suggests the need for wheel align
ment; small cuts should be repaired
promptly.
When you 1ave observed all these
suggestions and obtained something
like three or four years Of normal
wear out of your tifes, you can go
still further with regrooving and
then recapung. You may have
some prejudices against the latter
operations, hut you may have to
accept them as part of the sacri-
fees required by the war.
Regrooving is done when the
treads are worn down almost to the
bottom of the non-skid design IN
the center; -ecapping comes when
the regroovilg substance Is worn
down almost to the bottom Of the
grooves. Ore warning goes with
these rejuvenation jobs-they must
not be driven at high speed.

Of the meeting room while the
board discussed the budget. There
was no discussion OF various items
Of the budget at the formal meeting
with reporters present at has taken
place In other years. The board
maintained Its record for secret
sessions. Not once since the school
superintendent moved his Office "a
the Tuttle house have reporters been
allowed into the meeting room at 6
o'clock, the scheduled time for the
session.
DR.. Charles Kennedy made the
motion to accept the record budget
request. The total OF salary items
In the proposed budget Is approxi-
mately $26 ,426 higher than the same
Items In the budget for the past fis-
cal year. This is to make provision
for the 10 per cent increase granted
all full-time school employees in De-
cember effected last January !. and
also for the new increase for the
lower grade teachers mentioned
above.
Big Slash Expected
just where the school board
thought the money for It's request
might come from Is puzzling some
residents. The new grand list will
provide about $4,000 more than last
year, and the school board Is ask
ing almost $3l 900 increase. Un-
doubtedly the board OF warden and
burgesSes will slash the budget re-
quest to q much lower figure but
there is q question OF whether the
school board will stick TO what the
freemen approve. II didn't in the
past fiscal year and in the l940-4l
fiscal year, 1t overSpent It's budget
some $4,000.
The details of the budget Is as
follows: Secretary beard Of educa-
ton, $50 appropriated last year;
