SoAPY WATERS
JOHNNY HAZARD

Sixty years ago there were
many persons who talked like
this:
Automobiles will never sue
ceed. They break down too often,
and are a trouble In general.
They must run on poor high
ways which often are bumpy or
muddy, or both"
To a certain extent those
words were correct. Early cars
did break down very often, and
the roads were a disgrace.
The full truth, however. was
different. There is something in
human beings which helps them
to work past hard places. Better
motors were built and roads were
paved with far more care.
One early trouble had to do
with the tires and springs. When
the speed increased, people in
automobiles were Jared too
much. That led to better springs
for the cars, also to air filled
tires.
A man who never saw an au-
tomobile pointed the way for
good rubber tires. His name was
Charles Goodyear. and he was
born in New Haven, Conn.
At the age Of 80 Goodyear was
told about a company in Massa-
chusetts which had gone bank
rupt. This company had been
carrying out costly tests on rub
ber. The purpose was to cure
the rubber so it would serve we'll

efforts. The rubber was injured
by cold weather, and it melted
during hot days.
In this short article I can
speak only briefly about the work
of Goodyear. He spent many
years trying to make better rub
ber. One day, by accident, he
laid sheet of partly cured rub
Der on a hot stove. Later he saw
that part of the sheet was turned
into hard rubber. This gave him
the hint which made it possible
to vulcanize rubber.
Goodyear died 95 years ago.
Poor in worldly goods at the
start of his life, he remained
poor after his success. He even
suffered prison because of his
debts. Despite that, he gave the
world valuable knowledge of
rubber, and made the modern
automobile tire possible.
