Bolshevik Agitator Executed in Bavaria By Associated Press. Munich, Bavaria, June 7.—Levine Nissen, the Bolshevik agitator who was one of the leaders of the Mu nich Communist Soviet regime, was executed at noon Thursday at Stadelheim, outside the capital. He was convicted and the Bavarian cabinet refused to commute his sen tence, maintaining that he was the cause of the civil war in Bavaria and deserved no mercy. It seems probable that Levine Nis- Ben, named above, is identical with the Bolshevik leader Levien. who has figured so prominently in the press dispatches in connection with the Munich Soviet regime.

McFARLAND local Firestone Dealer The careful application of tires is quite as necessary as the choice of the correct type. Especially should the best adaption of tire to rim be made a subject of concern. Before applying a tire all rust and other foreign matter should be care fully removed from the rim. If rust has formed on the rim it will cause tiouble at some later time, apart from the corroding influence of the rust. If tires have been driven 'de fated at any time mud will probably have accumulated on the rims, and unless this is removed the tires can not seat or fit properly. The danger i of pinching inner tubes can best be i i educed to a minimum by dusting | s&apstone or powdered mica on the 1 rims, so that the tire beads will slip i into the correct position easily, i Inflated the inner tubes just enough i to round them out before placing : them inside the casing.. Do not use I tubes of the wrong size, and be sure I that the valves are equipped with ! spreaders adapted to the particular type of casing used, clincher, quick detachable clincher or straight side. I Valves in Fir<jMone tubes are equip- I'ped with a universal spreader, and j therefore are suitable for use in all three types. • Dust the inside of the case and the inner tube with powered mica or talc. This will reduce friction and 1 prevent adhesion Qf the tube to the ' case after they have been heated in service. When the tires have been removed for some reason, it is a good idea, wnen reapplying, to reverse them. Discover Secret of Making Artificial Mother-of-Pearl London, June 7.- —The secret of ! another German key industry has | been discovered, the manufacture of ! artificial mother-of-pearl. J. W. H. j Dew, a Fellow of the Royal Society ; of Arts, found the process after much | patient experimenting. Dr. Dew was engaged during the i whole period of war in reconstruct i ing, step by step, the method of j manufacture. i Artificial mother-of-pea-l is used j for making fancy buttons, dress | trimmings and many other articles. | Before the war most of it came from | Germany. that is, to place the worn sides of the tires toward the car. It is not very generally known, though it is a fact, that almost all of the side wear on a tire occurs on the outside; that is, on the side away from the car. The foregoing sounds, Irish, I know, but it Is a fact nevertheless. This is due to road construction, rut wear, curb scraping, and such things. The life of a tire may be prolonged to such an extent that a great deal higher mileage may be secured by turning the tires about occasionally to secure even wear upon both sides. 1 said that tire and rim should be suited to-each other. If straight side tires are to be used on clincher rims, tiller beads ought to be fitted in the rim clincher to keep the side walls of the casings from being chafed and gouged. To avoid as much as pos sible the tendency of straight side tubes to lift up from the rims at the inner edges of cables and in tnis way permit a rolling motion side ways, it is advisable to have, more spread between the cables than is needed for beads of the clincher va riety. The best way, therefore, to use straight side tires on ciincher rims is not to use them at all. The two types don't mix. Concluding this subject, the im portance of using flaps should not be overlooked. Whether clincher or straight side tires are employed, both rings should be in position. A few folks really don't know these last two things; more people know them and don't do them. (To be continued next Saturday.) SENDING HOME SOUVENIR GLOVES Yanks Learn Many Points About Them in Gre noble Factories Grenoble, France, June 7.—To sending home souvenirs, as in othet things, the army moves as a unit. War trophies were the style ir. souvenirs for awhile, but now shoul der straps cut from the uniforms of dead Germans are passe, and Boche helmets are no longer the range. Lace followed them 'as a fashion, and now it's gloves. The dough boys all over France and Germany are sending back gloves by the thou | sands of pairs. This newest style in souvenirs un doubtedly started up here in Gren oble, the center of one of the great est glove industries in the world. Its 200 glove factories, some of which turn out the most expensive and best-known gloves to be had in the United States, have always before | been closed to all visitors, except ■ those with special invitations. Then | Grenoble was made a leave area for I the A. E. F., and the Y. M. C. A. ■ asked and received permission for i the American soldiers to visit the 1 factories one day a week. The result is that the doughboys I here on leave know more about j gloves than do the women who will : wear the ones they are sending back home. Any of them can tell I you that gauntlets are the very lat est thing, that three buttons are smarter than two this season, and that the newest white gloves of all are dyed on the inside to match the gown. They have learned so much about kid that they can almost tell when they see one browsing on the mountainside whether he would make two pairs of gloves, or three and of what quality. The American soldiers know ail about gloves, in fact, except the size they need for their women folk. Canadian Officer and His Virgina Bride Whom War Romance Took to Europe , jggsgi MAJORS MI CHARLES HENRY POZER. Just after they were married in 1916, Major Charles Henry Pozer and his wife went to England. She was Miss Kitty Steele Barrett, daugh ter of Dr. Kate Waller Barrett, of Alexandra, Va., and well known in Washington. He was then a lieu tenant in the Fourth Canadian Railway Troops. When he went to France, she entered the Canadian Army Service Corps, and drove an ambulance in London for more than two years. Her husband, who had become a major by 1918, was men tioned in dispatches received from General sir Douglas Halg. BRITISH ACE DIED UNKNOWN His Record Was Not Checked Up Until After Armistice By Associated Press. London, June 7.—The late Major E. W. Manock was ihe leading "ace" of the British aviation corps but it was not until mon'hs after the j armistice that the fact was known jaud he never will ire officially cred | ited by the Air Ministry with being i England's premier flyer. It was the I policy of the Ministry during the war | not to pioclaim individual exploits | and it has not been changed since fighting ceased. The record of Mannock's eighteen months' service is most unusual. He started by outwitting examining phy sicians in concealing the fact that he was blind in one eye. At 29 years of age he was older than most of the pilots in training but he seemed to lack nothing required of a successful air fighter and soon qualified and went to France. Immediately he adopted tactics peculiar to himself and it finally was a deviation from those tactics that brought him down. He always flew very high and enticed his adversary into a high fight but, in bringing down his seventy-third German, he chased his falling foe too near the ground and a bullet from an anti aircraft gun ended his career. Officers of the Royal Air Force have acclaimed him the greatest air tactician in the service. He had none of the eccentricities prevalent among successful French aviators but he was scientific, persistent and dogged. One of his brother officers recently said that he had seen Man nock stalk a Hun for an hour or more, attempting to gradually draw him higher and then, when the slightest opportunity for advantage presented itself, he was on the foe like a cat. Although Mannock was presented with the Distinguished Service Order and the Military Cross it was not until the thousands of records of pilots were checked in the Air Min istry here that it was known that he had more Germans to his credit than any other British aviator. This fact was allowed to become known at the ministry but not officially. j CORD TIRES GOODRICH and GOODYEAR We have all ' lzcSt Let us I supply your needs.
