For there is nothing exclusive in the industry. No patents, no secret formulas prevent a conscientious maker from build ing the best. But cost and competition modify ideals. The Brunswick idea is to pay perfection's price and get it. ev That has been the Brunswick policy since 1845. And It ac counts for the growing preference for Brunswick Tires. Motorists cxpect the utmost from a tire bearing th* name frf Brunswick ? and get it. You, too, will be convinced by your first Brunswick, that here is an extraordinary tire, and that more money cannot buy a better. Better tires of their type are impossible ? or better tubes. That wc guarantee. Try ONE Brunswick ? learn how it excels. THE BRUNSW1CK-BALKE-COLLENDER CO.

IT IS very easy to enter Java. says a writer In the New York Sun. Tourists are welcomed cordially and the customs officials are ef ficient about It, so that the llrst Im pression of Java Is pleusnnt. Some say that It Is Just as'easy to get out of as into Java, hinting tlmt the I>ntch resent misbehavior and unfair criti cism and that undeslrablo visitors are sometimes requested to leave forth with. Most visitors land at Tandjong I'rl* ok, the harhor for ltatuvia. about sev en tulles from the city. This h?irt>or was built between 1877 and 188(5, and was considered one of the finest co lonial harbors In the world until some of the British harbors excelled, and now the Dutch are re-establishing their claim for this distinction with the harbor construction at Soerabaya. De spite the fact that there art two har* bors, outer and Inner, the commerce of Batnvla has really outgrown the facilities offered by 'the present har bor Works. . ? The outer harbor has a depth of 20 feet, and is protected by two break waters, each 0,000 feet in length. The Inner harbor is some 8?600 feet long and over 500 feet wide, with quays on each side. The east &uijr has coaling sheds. The piers are of concrete con struction, with spur tracks from the railway. The cost of this harbor was over $10,500,000. Protected From Crocodiles. About a quarter of an hour's drive from Tandjong, In one otythose funny antiquated hacks drawn by ponies, is "Petit Trouville," where sea bathlhg may be enjoyed. The bathing pool Is Inclosed to kee^ out crocodiles and Is probably perfectly safe, but I have seen fences on land give way before a rushing bull nnd a convenient tree provided the protection which the fence failed to give. So I refrained from enjoying the security of the fenced-in pool. ? A crocodile Is fully as powerful nnd as fast as an infuriated bull, nnd he Is Just as lininune to rea son. The Dutch have not provided, convenient trees as an extra safe guard, but most of them know the crocodiles by name nnd do not seem afraid of them. It Is different with strangers. The. drive from Tandjong IMiok to ttatavln Is a fitting prelude to a tour of Java. In this short drive, seven mtles or so, is found the happy com bination of good roads, an unsurpassed luxuriance of tropical vegetation und a kaleid'os<*ople whirligig of peoples, native and foreign, dressed In their own peculiar manners and going about their business in their Individual ways. All the way to Batavla the road runs along the canhl, and along the canal are rice fields, coconut groves, native settlements and a new surprise at ev ery turn "f the way. Tall coconut palms reach out over the canal from the great groves along the banks. Nestled anions them art* the pictur esque native houses with their bamboo woven sides and thatched roofs; over head Is the turquoise blue sky so pe peeullar to the tropics, and to intensify Its hlueness are the cotton clouds as motionless as the palms The Goat an Institution. All this beauty Is shown both above mid below, for there In the canal Is the reflection of the whole scene. even to the cattle, the sleek humped kind, the buffalo and the goats. We must rot forget the goats. They are as In ev 11 a hie a" they arc Innumerable. Coats are to Java what dogs are to America. They run at vs111?are ev erybody's friend If there is a fight or a fire, they scamper about on the edge of the 1 crowd. If a tire blows our. there they | are. eagerly awaiting any scraps of rubber or cloth which may hp thrown ! away. They are the comedians of I metropolitan Java. In the provinces ; there the m??nkey? are as Tunny as at the zoo. Well, this finds ti" in Java ?and what.

I For hundreds of years i?efi>rp Co- t Iambus discovered America, Hindu In fluence was. dominant In Java, and then Die bolshevlkl came over from Arabia and messed tilings up, This was in 1477. The Portuguese peeked in nt one or two of the ports in KM 1 and said: "Sh-h-h! Qrutot now, it Hows. *ve won't do a thing to this place." But they did. How Spoil* Were Divided. From then until 1520, it was nip and tuck between the Spanish and the/ Portuguese as to who could rob the natives the more efficiently. The contest ended In a draw and u treaty gave rights of rohbery in the Indies to the Portuguese and similar rights In the Philippines to the Spanish. The Spanish got the best of the bar gain, because they were not disturbed until 18H8, while the poor Portuguese were kicked out of their territory hy th? Dutch in 159(1, before they had half time to skin the natives. Then the I?utch took oyer the no ble work and drew up trading treaties for presentation to the natives. To all questions raised by the pony of the second pnrt one reply was used? "sign here."- When the natives showed a reluctance the blunderbuss or long sword made tlie fairness of the treaty |?erfectly clear, as was cus tomary among the conquerors of those early days. ?. . ? Dutch Rule Now Kindly. From then until 189.} Holland nnd Kngland fought like country cou sins over possession of the Islands, and they tlnaliy whacked up and called quits. Kngland took parts of Africa, all of Ceylon and spots along the Chlnn coast, bnt left the Indies to Holland, after taking a slice off Bor neo nnd an end off New Guinea. So we find the Dutch In possession of Java and through their courtesy we visit the Island. Here wo are in Ita tavla, a comnuinlty of many peoples enjoying peace and prosperity under the kindly Dutch rule. The first thing to And is a hotel.
