The work of the volunteers will be very
valuable They nre to work In pairs, threes
or singly Teams of two and three nro
rent with motor trucks. Where sent
flngly each boy Is sent with the owner of
an automobile. Tho drivers of trucks have
heen responsible men In all cases In this
Campaign, so It would seem boys would
be entirely safe. The drivers are employes

firms owning trucks.
ASIC SCOUTS TO VOLUNTKEH
This work has been In tho hands of tho
Boy Scouts Tho scouts are preparing to
hold a big Mold day, and nearly nil of them
will he In training next Saturday. It oc
curred to the Hed Cross and tho I:vk
xino Lkdoer that theio must be many
boys who would like to volunteer their serv
ice to tho Itcd Cross for a duy. so It was
decided to appeal for volunteers for tho en
tire collection on Saturday. If this plan
Is successful, the volunteer system will be
used from time to tlmo to give boys who
are not members of the Uoy Scouts a chance
to help mako this campaign a big paying
enturc In behalf of tho men who are going
to Kuropo to fight. x
A Klnsohn, dealer In fruit, mushrooms
and vegetables, at Chew street and Chelten
avenue, (lermantown, who has volunteered
to collect paper In that locality every
Monday between the hours of noon and
2 -SO In the afternoon, sent his truck out
yesterday afternoon nnd collected nearly
a ton of paper.
STORED IX GERMAN-TOWN
Miss Edith Smythe. of 110 Summit ave
nue. Chestnut Hill, who has been collecting
each Monday, also picked up several loads
of paper In her pleasure car yetcrday.
Both of these volunteers have been storing
the paper they collected at the plant of the
Albright Purse Company, Duval.' street,
Germantown, this company having volun
teered to store tho paper until a large truck
load could be collected.
The two machines mentioned above have
greatly assisted the management of the
campaign, as tho Oermantown and Chest
nut Hill territories are so far from the
other xolunteer collectors that It was next
to Impossible to make the collections.

The Maintenance of Quality
There is a new idea in tire making behind Hood
Tires. It is the policy of the Hood Tire Com
pany to build the finest and most serviceable
tire that modern skill and existing materials
will permit. Should invention and the re
search work of our own and other experts
discover 'Better ways or better materials to
increase the life and service of a tire, these
improvements would unhesitatingly be incor
porated in a Hood Tire.
Therefore, a Hood Tire will always be, as it
is now, the pre-eminent tire the 'tire with
more plies of fabric, better fabric, more and
better rubber, more scientific and better
methods of construction, better and finer ma
terials giving you that tire of quality which
is unquestionably the tire of greater mileage,
longer life and increased safety. Try Hood

It substitutes flexibility and ease of control, elasticity of
power, constant torque and smooth riding at a thousand speeds,
for the jerks and jars of gear-shift cars.
This same dependable Magnetic unit substitutes a little
finger-lever on the steering-wheel for the axvkward, hard
working, shifting mechanism of other cars. It also provides
for starting, lighting and braking.
This means greater mileage for tires and gasoline, less
abuse, lower upkeep expense and far greater satisfaction.
It's probably hard to realize that these Owen Magnetic
