but the tires are rigidly inspected
through every manufacturing process
to insure a finished product that meets
the most exacting standards.
"Chemists andfengineers carefully
analyze the materials that go into
each Firestone tire. The rubber is
tested for the qualities of abrasion,
adhesion, elasticity, toughness and
tension. The cord fabric is tested for
the breaking point, imperfections and
weight. Only material that meets the
most rigid tests is accepted.
. "Through every stage of manufac
ture, from the construction ofthe
bead to the application of the trade
mark, inspectors with years of exper
ience examine every one of the mil
lions of Firstone tires produced an
nually.
"In the completely, equipped Fire
stone laboratories, the tires are sub
jected to severe tests. They are op
erated on special machines which
duplicate as nearly as possible ac
tual service conditions.
"Day and night over all kinds erf
roads and under all kinds of weather
conditions, a fleet of test cars is used
in checking the actual results of
operating the tires in service. The
tires are purposely subjected to es
pecially severe operating condition"!
by underinflation and over load so
that their performance under the
worst conditions of service may be ac
curately gauged.
This scrupulous care all along the
line i3 why Firestones have built a
worldwide reputation for quality."

The Blind Bogey mach which was

eight members participating Sunday

ranging fromJJS to 59 for the nine
holes.
The prizes of $2 Dunlope golf

Washington. American immigra
tion quotas exceeding 150,000 for
the fiscal year 1926 have been practi
cally exhausted, as all the more im
portant countries using their entire
allotments, according to State de
partment compilations made Satur
day. Although final reports are yet to
be received from many parts of the
world, the figures thus far show an
unexpected balance of only 2,826, of
winch 1,300 had been allotted to
countries like Bhutan, Muscat, Yap
Island, Nepal Ruanda and Urundi.
These 13 countries, each one with
a nominal quota of 100, had failed
to send a single emigrant to the
United States.
The largest quota, that of 51,227
for Germany, was exhausted, as was
the British quota of 34,007 and the
smaller quotas allotted nations like
Denmark, Austria, Norway, Sweden,
Switzerland, Poland and Czecho-Slo-
vakia. ft
The latest report-from Italy, dated
June 26, showed a balance of 86
vacancies, and a French report of
June 25 showed 11 vacancies. It is
assumed that these were consumed
during the last days of June.
The largest unexpected balance is
one of 379 for Ireland as of June
26, but it is believed certain final
reports will show that these vacan
cies were ultimately utilized.
ACCIDENTS ARE FEW
The number of accidents this year
in the observance of the Fourth of
July was very small considering the
amount of fireworks and noise pro
ducing crackers and cannons that
were used in the celebration. R. J.
Jahrig, was one of the two accident
victims. Mr. Jahrig. was helping the
young folks celebrate by firing a can
non and while he was working with
the cannon he dropped a match in
small pile of powder and the re
sult was that he received several
bad powder burns in the face. Frank
Koubek also had his left hand burn
ed while firing off a cannon and the
member will be quite sore from the
effects of the burns for a few days.

From Wednesday's Daily
Last night Officer Clyde Jackson
discovered a young boy, some four
teen years of age wandering along
the Main street of the city and after
an examination of the boy he was
held here at the city jail as a run
away from his home iu Kansas City.
The boy gave a varied story of his
wanderings and at first poured into
the ears of the police a story of how
he was kidnapped and forced to ac
company two men from Kansas City,
Missouri, to this city but the tale
did not sound true to the officers
and on farthe question the boy gave
his name as Howard Peskie and stated
that he had run away from his home
in Kansas City and had bummed rides
in cars along the highway until he
was able to reach this city.
There were two men, one .aged 2G
and one 25, who were in company
with the boy but they denied ac
knowledge of his past, their acquain
tance being limited to the fact that
he had rode part of the way from
Kansas City with them in their car.
Chief of Police Johnson ascertain
ed from the boy that he had had
been in more or less trouble with
his parents and at one time had been
in an industrial school in Michigan
and that the parents had been un
able to control him to any extent.
The boy is still in the city jail
pending word from the relatives at
Kansas City.
