SPEAKS ON PROHIBITION.
R. T. Cookingham, ex-sheriff of
Umatilla county .addressed the
church people of Heppner in a un
ion meeting at the Christian church
on Sunday evening, his theme being
pronibltion, and during the course
of the address he made plain that
there was going to be no let up on
the part of the wets in their fight
against the 18th amendment; while
the leaders of the antls were well
satisfied that they could never mus
ter a force sufficient to amend the
constitution and repeal the Volstead
act, yet they were hard at work to
nullify the law, and hoped that they
would be able to have it so amend
ed that the alcoholic content in
drinks might be raised from the
present standard of one half of one
per cent to at least 2.75, and It was
this movement that the prohibition
forces were called upon right now
to combat. Mr. Cookingham was
here under the auspices of the Anti-
Saloon League of Oregon, and
funds were raised to help that or
ganization in carrying on its work
for the coming two years.
Mrs. Alvin Wade, sister of Mrs.
George Moore of this city, is visit
ing at the Moore residence from
her home at Cheyenne, Wyoming.
Tires for the new Ford
are specially made
to give long wear
WnEN tlie new Ford was le
signed, it was immediately
apparent that a new tire
would have to be made to
match the car's perform
ance. It was distinctly a new
problem, for here was a car
with quicker acceleration,
greater speed and more
braking efficiency than any
car of similar size or weight.
So that every Ford owner
might be assured of maxi
mum tire mileage at the low
est cost, the Ford Motor
Company devoted many
months to research and
experiment in conjunc
tion with the leading tire
manufacturers.
As a result, certain defi
nite specifications were de
veloped for tires for the new
Ford. These specify cords of
certain strength and texture,
a large volume of tread and
side-wall rubber, sturdy non
skid design, and reinforced
plies for protection against
i bruise breaks all the
strong features of construc
tion formerly considered
for only the largest tires.
Great care also was taken
to secure the best ridingqual
ities in connection with the
transverse springs
and the Houdaille
shock absorbers.
Though the Ford tires are
designated as 30 x 4.50,
they have the resiliency and
air space of much larger
tires because of the drop
center rim of the steel-spoke
wheels.
For best results, the tires
on the new Ford should be
kept inflated to an air pres
sure of 33 pounds and
checked regularly to insure
this pressure all the time.
This is important. Low in
flation breaks down the side
walls of a tire. By causing
overheating, it also destroys
the rubber that acts as an
insulation, with consequent
separation of the cord.
At the end of each 5000
miles, when you have the
front wheels packed with
grease, it is a good plan to
have the wheel alignment
checked. This will prevent
premature wear.
When punctures come, aa
they will with any tire, you
will find the Ford dealer
particularly well-equipped
to make repairs quickly and
at small cost. See him, too,
for replacements. Then
you will be sure of getting
tires built specially for the
rord car according
to definite Ford
specifications.
