CHANDLER President, The Chandler Motor Car Company The country club, as it exists to- day, is one of the most striking ex- amples of the influence that the automobile has had over American life and habits. What would the country club be without the auto? The answer is, “It wouldn't!" Of course, country clubs came be- fore automobiles, but they were dif- ferent from the clubs today. The old time club was limited in its activ- ities by the very fact that it was situated in the counry, Sites were chosen not for their beauty and suitability, but because of thelr ac cessibility to residents of the city, and that meant that the club ‘must be located near a railroad line or an electrio railway. Naturally, the clubs’ development svas slow. Raflroad schedules were not designed for the benefit of those who might suddenly wish to dash out to the links, and they were much worse for those who might wish to spend a social evening at the club- house. The automobile has made a visit to the country club &0 simple and convenient, as compared with the olden days, that it is entitled to all the credit the remarkable devel- opment of this phase of American life. The clubs of today, instead of be- ing Umited in their location to re- gions served by rail, are purposely Jald out in’ secluded and pleturesque rites, yet are more quickly accessible than the so-called country clubs that used to llé alongside the main line of the railroad. VALVE-IN-HEAD MOTOR PIONEERED BY THE FRANKLIN, 13 CLAIM The present-day popularity of valve-in-head motor construction brings to mind the fact.that this development in automotive design is not of recent origin, but dates back to 1902, when the Franklin Automobile company pioneered this type and introduced it for the first time. The 1902 Franklin cars equipped with the lve-in-head motor were the subject of much comment, but it was not until two years later that another well-known automobile er adopted the valve-in- | n as standard equip- | nly did Franklin intr but it has clung anilin nbodys 1 principles. vi in Wilkinson, the designer of the Franklin car, goes the credit for the vatye-in-head motor.

But the result of this experience appar- ently has been to increase the popu: larity of the bus, rather than to dis: credit it. The Northern Ohio Traction com- pany which operates the trolley ser- vice of the city, has recently placed orders for 28 busses, practically doubling the number it uses within city limits of Akron supple- to street motor trip this summer, the Tribune Tour Bureau {i your service to plan your complete route to the best of its ability.

Communications by telephone with branch offices of the State Highway department will be established with the opening of the new department, and road con- ditions will be transmitted direct to the Tribune by branch representa- tives of the highway department. Bulletins will be posted at the office of the tour bureau at least three times a week and those Interested may obtain latest highway reports without the necessity of questioning heavy tires which naturally would break down under any inflation which would permit flexing and bending to any great extent. Most standard tire manufactur- ers now, however, are using’ a con- struction that will permit of more flexing, thereby requiring less air pressure and mnrking tyr easier rid- ing qualities. Underinflation is still as destructive to tire Hfe as it ever | was, Recommended pressures, how- ever are lower than they were a few years ago. Tires are now built to carry the load properly and while uncerinflation {s net recommended, it is not necessary to carry as much air as previously, The wise motorist will consult his tire dealer and learn the proper amount of air to be carried in his tires, judged by the load inflicted upon each tire—Automobile Digest. TIE INFLATION 5 DICUSSED Tires Built to Stand Up Under Certain Conditions Proper tire inflation is a subject whiqh is frequently misunderstood by tho tire users, particularly with reference to the true meaning of underinflution. Some people are of the opinion thet tire manufactur- ers ask for a bigher inflation than is necessary siniply to protect their own interests. That is not true. Manufacturers build tires to be op- erated under certain inflation con- ditions, and “when these ccnditions are neglected or abused, the tire naturally f: to give the full serv- fee which waa built into it at the factory.
