A Fine Chautauqua,
Our Chautauqua is surpassing our
greatest expectations this year. Our
i
superintendent, the best on this cir-
cuit, is Rev. L. P. Young; he is a
great favorite of the entertainers and
also of the people. Mr. Immel, the
morning hour lecturer is giving us
some very fine food for thought and
Miss Whiteside who nas charge of
the children certainly can tell the
most delightful stories in such a
charming way. She is also training
them for the Mother Goose Pageant
to be presented on Saturday morning.
Among the speakers we have every
variety; Mr. Sears with his irresist-
ible cheerfulness; Dr. Poole to in-
struct in his lecture on modern Chi-
na and to entertain in his rendition
et”; Mr. Mason to tell us of the Mex-
ican situation and Mr. Batten in his
lecture,
racy”. We are having exceptionally
fine music both vocal and instrumen-
i while those who have never sat under
‘the srell of the matchless music of
the Tschaiskowsky String Quartet
can never know what they missed,
but those who have heard it can nev-
er forget it for it is almost impossi-
ble for one who hears this quartet not
to be “moved by concord of sweet
sounds.”
the coming of which all had looked
forward was able to render only a
few numbers in the evening, because
of a most severe storm which caused
“one of the ropes to break. Many were
panic! stricken at first, but the voice
of our superintendent rose, bidding
‘all to remain quiet, and then the au-
dience was adjourned. The choir then
gave their program the next morning.

"THE THREATENED
RAILROAD STRIKE
! The threatened tie-up of the rail
roads by a great strike would strike
Somerset county extremely hard as
the mining towns here depend en
tirely on the railroads to carry their
products.
The Baltimore & Ohio Railroad, on
the Somerset & Boswell Branch of
the Connellsville Division, is hanl-
ing 500 cars of coal a day at present.
Other branches are carrying hun-
, dreds of cars additional. The stop-
' page of train movement would cer-
tainly mean closing of the mines.
Company stores in the smaller min- | :
ing towns would be in a bad way.
They depend entirely upon the rail-
roads to bring in their foodstuffs to
them and few of them carry big
stocks. With the cessation of work at
the mines and the closing of company
stores the plight of residents in the
small mining towns can be readily
imagined.

BETTER MOTOR CAR TIRES
Amid the refinements and improve.
1ents which have taken place during
the past two years in the modern mo-
tor car, we are apt to lose sight ptf the
increased mileage which the metorist
of today obtains from his tires. Bat
if we contrast the tire mileage obtain-
ed ten years ago with that which the
i cwner of the modern motor car is now
! wont to expect, we may well realize
that tire service has improved by
seven hundred per cent. No longer is
the chance puncture or let down of
daily occurrence; it is the exception
. rather than the rule; we hear of cars
! which have been driven from Maine
to California with the “Atlantic air”
still in all four tires; tours hundreds
+ ¢f miles in length over rough roads, |
which would have spelled deaih to the
tire of a few years agg, are now tak-
en wilh no more extra tire equipment

Avenue.
Nr
And not only is the service obtained
from the modern tire greater, but the
work which it is now called upon to
perform is many times that of its an-
cestor of a decade ago. Cars are Leav-
ier, they are driven at higher speed,
and the increase in touring has added
to the accessories and other equip-
nent carried until even the large tires
are often overloaded. The high motor
power and quick “pickup” demanded
of the car of today impart a tremen-
duous strain to the rubber and fabric,
as severe in its effect as a sudden ap-
plication of the brakes. And wher we
have added to the increased mileage

The improvement in tire construc.
tion has been accompanied by a reduc-
tion in tire cost, which regardless of
the recent rise in prices, still brings
the cost of any good tire of a given
size to a price approximately one half
or two thirds that of ten years ago.
In addition the manufacturers of the
higher priced tires have. increased
their guarantees te a point where six
