"The Immediate i preparedness of the automobile in dustry as a huge industrial unit to win the race against time to defeat the Hun, is now being used with telling effect. "But all of this factory efficiency and all of the methods now being employed so successfully date back to the building of automobiles on a large "scale," said Mr. Hanson. "Some mechanical giants and pigmys may be found at the factory of the Willya-Overland Company at Toledo. This plant has one of the largest steel presses In the world for making the side rails of Overland cars. It stands twenty-one feet high, twenty feet wide and is embedded in fifteen feet of solid concrete. It weighs 325 tons and has a pressure of 2,000 tons. With one mighty sweep it forms a side rail from cold metal of heavy gauge as easily as a child crumples a piece of paper in its palm. "Many visitors to the plant ex press the wish that they would like | to have its crushing-strength exerted on the Kaiser and his cohorts but they are told that this is ,lust what it is doing, aiding in replacing many men. "As a distinct opposite to the great strength of the giant press the dainty schleromter, built like a piece of fine jewelry and sensitive to slight variations, tests the compara tive hardness of metals. "In Its way, this pigmy of the industrial world is serving its purpose as well as Its big brother, making up for the brute strength by its extreme sensi tiveness which detects with unerring accuracy the firmness and texture of various metals. "Wether or not we appreciate the importance of America's Industrial preparedness, historians, in summing up our wonderful showing will un doubtedly give credit to the auto mobile industry whose plants of modern construction and equipment are humming in response to the na tion's need. TIMELY HINTS OK THE USE OF TIRES Extreme Care Should Be Taken of All Tires to Conserve Supply In the motor transport sorvlca of tho French army any driver who re poi til a cracked cylinder is given a stiff prison sentence. During colli weather these drive. t> must use ex treme care, for the scarcity of cer tain chemicals pro.:.bits the use of iron freezing solutions. Consequently all radiators must he drained when the trucks are allowed to stand for a while. The supply of trucks is limits! and each must therefore yield lis utmost service, The lack of one truck may mean the death of u number of valuable men. So, In France, conservation is compulsory —and carelessness and wasto are crimes. Such stringent measures may not be employed here to conserve our resources. Our government may not find it necessary to enforce drastic measures to compel tho tire buying public to make the available supply of tires go as far as possible. But if the war continues for several more years, pneumatic tires are going to become continually scarcer, and it will be nee ■' ">r tire users to give some real thought to tho conservation of our tire supply, otherwise a good percentage of cars may in time be laid up for the lack of tire equipment. So the time to begin the practice of conserving tires is right now, while we have the tires. And in car rying out this program the possi bilities of repairing tires as an aid in tire conservation are looming up bigger than ever. Careful driving, frequent inspection, maintenance of proper air pressures, filling of tread cuts, etc., are all important in se curing good mileage. But a cer tain number of tires are bound to be injured and others will be mis used. In the future, instead of cast ing these tires aside as useless, a tire saver, a built-in tread or a re tread wil have to put them back into service. "Will it pay to repair my tires?" the motorist asks. Answering this question, the Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company is offering a little timely advice as to the practicability of tire repairs, that may help the tire user in his decision. Take, for example, a 30x3% tire which has received a "stone bruise" after running about 2,500 miles. The tire's usefulness is at an end and no redress or reimbursement is In order in the absence of any inher ent defect in the tire. Will a sec tional repair, costing, say. $4. pay? Most motorists know what average \ mileage their tires deliver, and by dividing the price of the tire by the average mileage received, can ascer tain their tire cost per mile. For instance, if a motorist is ob taining an average of 6,000 miles from a tire that costc $24.00. his tire cost per mile is two-fifths of a cent. To make a $4.00 repair pay for itself he must therefore receive 1.000 additional miles, and If the repair is well done much more mile age than this will be secured. So, repairing tires is not only a patriotic dub' that all car owners must perform, hut a good business proposition for the tire user.

"Soldiers of tho One Hundred and I Tenth Infantry, who never thought j they could kill a man, fought like ; demons In that blood-strewn little j deep between the two hillocks of Chateau Thierry," declared the Rev. Dr. Daniel B. Marsh, pastor of the Smlthficld Street Methodist Episcopal Church, who returned to Pltteburgn from a trip to France as a Y. M. C. A. worker. Dr. Marsb witnessed tho charge himself. He said that the charge o. Company I, through the hollow and up the hill was so enthusiastic and so determined that 250 boys from Pennsylvania, who never thought of war two yeare ago, swept through four times their number In veteran German troope, then climbed to the top of the hill and bayoneted the re treating Hun as he scurried down. Dr. Marsh brought back from France many anecdotes of excep tional bravery of the Keystone state boys under the menacing fire of the Hun. The night after the battle, he said, he worked In the field hospital, where throe hundred meil were being treated. Among them was Private Ira Deemer, of Apollo. Pa., a member of Company M, which Company Is commanded by Captain Edward J. Stackpole, Jr., of Harrlsburg. Pri vate Deemer gave Mr. Marsh some souvenirs to bring back to his moth er. One of them is a pocketbook, with bullet glued to a Nen Testament. The Hun bullet tore through the thickness of the pocketbook and the Testament and welded them, leaving a painful. burn above the soldier's heart. Dr. Marsh also told of the military fu neral for Private John Marshall, of Monongahela City, who died of wounds In France. He said that his brother, a member of the Ambulance Corps, built the coffin with his own hands. Dr. Marsh picked a spray of white flowers from the head of the grave and brought them to Pittsburgh to be presented to the soldier's mother. In a violent hand-to-hand combat, Chester and Pottstown boys of the | Iron Division, aiding the French in the capture of a fortified wood, dis ' played valor which earned for them ! the official commendation of the French commander. Details of the exploit, with the offi cial praise of the French general, have been received at Chester from Private Harry Culbert. Company B. 111 th Infantry, who received a bullet In the left leg during the engage ment. Two platoons of Americans are mentioned in the French commander's praise, one from Company A and the other from Company B. Company a. of the 111 th Infantry, comprises boys from Pottstown and neighboring towns, with a scattering of troops from the former Eighteenth Regi ment of Pittsburgh. Company B Is made up of boys from Chester, Mar cus Hook and neighborhood. In the victory over the Huns the platoon from Company A advanced from the eastern edge of the woods and the platoon from Company B from the western edge. "From the beginning of the at tack," the French commander says, "the American detachments were marked by their ardor, bravery and then enthusiasm. Each Sought His Adversary "In spite of the firing of the en emy's heavy and light guns, trench mortars and riflemen placed in trees, on their adversaries. A fierce hand these men bravely threw themselves to-hand contest Immediately took place in the thick and almost impreg nable woods, where each man sought his man. "The combat was violent and the Americans never ceased to arouse the enthusiasm and admiration of their French comrades by their magnificent behavior. "Bieutenant Schenkel especially dis tinguished himself during this com bat. making a great impression on his own troops and our solders. Bed on by his ardor, with seven men. the lieutenant found himself surrounded on all sides. This detachment fought Its way through by using the butts of their rifles and bayonets on the enemy's ranks. And they succeeded in rejoining their comrades. Bieuten ant Schenkel himself killed with a pistol a German officer." Another Chester boy, Bester Han nlgan, was awarded a war cross for bravery In this action, Culbert writes. "Bob" Campbell, also of Chester, took part in the fight. "These words of praise ar e enough to make us hold our chests out." wrote Culbert, proudly. Yell and Charge Bike Indian* Another Iron Division soldier. Bur ton K. Jones, of the 103 d Engineer train, describes vividly an attack by Pennsylvania boys. He writes to his home at Phillipsburg, Pa.: "The German machine gunners do not scare our American infantry. I stood on the top of a hill about three days ago and watched a company go over the top. The yell they let loose would have done credit to the battle cry of several thousand Apaelie In dians, and the way those Jerrys scat tered! Wow! They ran every way but forward. "Good old Pennsylvania can be proud of Its division, for it surely has done fine work." Carlisle Indian Students Sing as School Closes Carlisle, Pa..

LEADERS SENTENCED TO 20-YEAR TERMS Traitors Who Opposed Amer ica's War Plans Groan Under Sentences By AmociattH Pnt4 Chicago, Aug. 31. —William D. Haywood, "uncrowned king" of the Industrial Workers of the World, and fourteen of his chief aids In the conspiracy to overturn the American war program. were sentenced to twenty years In the federal penlten tary at Beavenwortn, Kas., by Fed eral Judge K. M. Handle here lata yesterday. . Ten-year sentences wero Imposed upon thirty-threo of the organiza tion's leaders, five-year sentences on thirty-three, one-year and one-day on eleven defendants and ten-day sentences on two others. Cases against Benjamin Schraoger, Chi cago, writer, and Pletro Nigra, Spring Valley, Ills., were continued. Fines ranging from 320,000 down to $5,000 wer Imposed. "In times of peace you have a legal right to oppose, by free speech, preparations for war. But when war has been declared that right ceases forthwith," was the court's closing remarks. Defendants Groan Aside from a slight disturbance In the corridor when one of the pris oners became hysterical while be ing led away, there was no disorder. There was a deep silence In the courtroom as Haywood and his four teen chief assistants were called be fore thS bar. As "Big Bill" arose from his seat, a group of women who had been weeping, started a mild ovation which was quickly si lenced. The procession continued, the pro ceedings Interspersed with an occa sional groan from the defendants and an outcry from women rela tives, until ninety-five of the organ ization's chief directors had been sentenced and led to the county Jail, through lanes of curious spectators that surrounded the federal build ing. Vincent St. John, who formerly held Haywood's office as general secretary-treasurer, was sentenced to ten years at Beavenworth. J. A. Mao Donald, Seattle publisher of a Radical paper, was sentenced to ten years, while J. T. (Third Rail Red) Doran, a western coast leader, and Harrison George, of Pittsburgh, whose printed vision of President Wilson and his cabinet in flight be fore-an army of I. W. W.'s, was an important factor in the trial, re ceived sentences of five years each. Guilt Was Plain For more than ah hour Judge Bandis. with sharp, direct sentences, reviewed the nationwide conspiracy against the government and read ex cerpts from Haywood's correspond ence relative to opposition to the war. "In the light of the evidence be fore it. the jury had no avenue of escape from a verdict of guilty,' the court said. Benjamin Fletcher, Philadelphia, the only colored member on trial, grinned broadly when he was sen tenced to ten years. He was being led away when he remarked: "Judge Bandis us using poor English to-day. His sentences are too long." Peerless Runs 20,000 Miles Without Repairs Peerless officials say that the hundreds of letters received from owners are a constant source of sat isfaction to them. These letters tes tify to the superior construction of Peerless cars from the owners' point of view. "Being thoroughly pleased with the Peerless car purchased in July, 1916, I feel obligated to recite a few facts concerning my .experience with this car," writes one Peerless car owner. "The first surprise was the mile age the tire equipment gave me. It is impossible to state definitely the number of miles secured from the rear tires. I am, however, still driv ing the front tires, which have' cov ered over 20,000 miles. "The entire machine is in as good condition to-day after having trav eled 20,000 miles as when originally purchased and giving excellent satis faction. I have spent practically no money for repairs. "I had thought of buying a new car this year, but beiieve I will be content with a new storage battery, as that is the only portion of the car which seems to need replacement at this time. It is hard to understand how bearings can be so well de signed and remain in perfect condi tion so long with so much wear. It has not been necessary to even ad just any of the bearings and at the present time there is no apparent wear requiring adjustment."

BUSHEY John M. Buehey, who for the last two and a half years has been con nected, in the capacity of salesman, with the local branch of the Fire stone Tiro and Rubber Company of Akron, Ohio, will leave for Buffalo, N. Y., on September I. Mr. Bushey started with the Fire stone Company in 1916, leaving the employ of Dives. Pomeroy & Stew art, with which house he had been associated thirteen years. His pro motion to manager of the truck tire sales of the Buffalo branch of the Firestone Company was given to Mr. Bushey Durely on merits and his new duties will offer a large field for further development and promo tion, and is but one of the many steps in the ladder of success which Mr. Bushey's present associates are confident he will reach. Earnest and conscientious efforts have been rewarded and while the local Firestone organization regret their loss, occasioned by Mr. Bush ey's transfer to another field, he leaves with their heartiest wishes for his continued success. Mr. Bushey's successor, his broth er, Curtis S. Bushey, is extensively known and favorably regarded in Harrlsburg and vicinity, and he wishes to assure all Firestone pa trons that his best efforts will be put forth to give them real Fire stone service and the same close attention given by his brother.

G. G. GOBBIXG, Mgr. 108 MARKET ST. AUGUST 31, rom a lubrlcnt. A strong magnifying glass held against the surface of a bearing, especially a new one, will reveal the answer—myriads of min ute depressions and protrusions cov ering the metal surface of the bear ing. It Is obvious that something Is required to fill up this roughness, to present a perfectly smooth contact surface. Hence, a lubricant Is used. Ordinary greases or oil .are not sufficient, as they soon squeeze out when the beuring becomes warm. Garage men and automobile me chanics recommend a lubricant con taining a flake graphite, as it is the only substance that will ade quately fill the uneven surface und stick there despite the rubbing and the heat. In fact, the harder it is rubbed the smoother it becomes. If a car were to be run without a lubricant in the bearings, it would screech fiendishly. Plain grease or oil stops the screech, but they both squeeze out under pressure, friction sets In and the bearing eventually wears out. The Joseph Dixon Cru cible Company worked 011 this prin ciple when they brought out their grapnite automobile lubricants. The Dixon company has developed the science of lubricating and now puts out a graphite lubricant for every purpose and place on the car.
