These Durable Soles Cut
Shoe Bills Down
"For use around cement plants and
similar places where (ough materials
grind down soles quic ly', I rc mend
Nealin Soles. They resist car sur
prisingly. After w ki 'round the
clinker department ong enough to
wear out two pairs of or inary soles,
my Neolin Soles are still as good as
new," writes A. F. Miller,/superinte -
ent of The Peninsular Port land Ce nt
Company plant in Jack n, Mi igan.
It is remarkable how fough d dur
able Neolin Soles are. /l'h are made
so by Science-comfor a and water
proof, too. They co on new shoes
in many styles for men, wvomen, and
children, and are available everywhere
for re-soling. Wear them, and cut
your shoe bills down.
Neolin Soles are made by The Good
year Tirc & Rubber Co., Akron, Ohio,
who also make Wingfoot HeIels, guar
anteed to outwear all other heels.
VICTOR OVER CHINESE DRAGON
American-Made Motortrucka Are 4lin
ning Way to Popularity in Land
of Conservatism.
Way back before the year 1 they
used to build high stone walls around
the cities in China to keep out the ex
ponents of civilization. Today they are
tearing down these walls, breaking
them iup into fine pleces, and using
them to build highways that will en
able their now progressive govern
ment to make the best use of the
American-magle motortrucks which
China is beginning to utilize.
This is, perhaps, as striking a com
ment on the economic and 1)oliticll
changes that are taking place within
this interesting country as has come
out of China in a long time. The crell
it for such progressive policies is given
in the main to Dr. George E1. Morris,
famous ex)lorer and political adviser
to the Chinese republic, an exchange
states. Doctor Morris luas succeeded
in substituting a lot of new American
ideas for the superstitions and conser
vatisi of the one-time "heathen Chi
nee." And now it is the motortruck
that has gained his ch)ampionisi1).
A conlsiderable number of trucks are
now in use in China, and they are do
ing everything required of them with
remarkable eiliciency, in spite of the
difliculty of securing skilled drivers
and competent mechanics in that part
of the world.
GRATEFUL FOR COLD WATER
Thirsty Fighters Went on Their Way
Blessing the Thoughtfulness of
That Red Cross Worker.
There was plenty of water in X, but
a tin mug of it was more deadly than
a German machine gun. It's impossi
ble to push two or three hundred thou
sand soldiers back and forth over a
locality, especially when half of them
are Germans and there isn't time * to
clean up after they have been de
feated, and keel) the water sippy un
affected. And when, as is the case
often, the water wasn't very pure to
begin with, It's not at all wise to dally
with the idea of drinking it. But what
can you do when you've been out all
day fighting and pursuing Germalns
and your canteen's empty and the roof
of your mouth feels like a vulcanized
scrubbing board?
That's the thought that came to a
ied Cross field service man during
the hottest fighting in August. It was
hot in two senses. The bullets flew
and the sun melted. And the ited
Cross man took out his largest mar
mite and filled it with water that was
cool and purified. lie kept it full all
day and every soldier that passed that
way had a drink of water. It was
water they wanted just then. A little
initiative oil the part of one mnan made
the soldiers as he himself put it "ab
surdly grateful." But after struggling
across fields and ronds all day in the
hot sun, well--vell hlen do become ib
surdly grateful for a drink of cool
water.-From a lied Cross Scrapbook.
Smashing All Records.
The knell of suclk inusicln German
propaganda 1as "Die Wnieht amn1 lIthelin"
and "Deutschland Uber Alles" was
sounded the other day when Ilore than
1,500 phonograph records eibracing
these ainl similar airs were destroyed
bly aI conlminit tee of' wome'n act inig un3
der tile auspices of thle National Phono
graph Rlecords IIl'lr uig corps. The
recordls were red uced to fragmlents
with Ihmmers at tile corps hleadquar
ters. Aside from ridding tile counitry
of all Gierman records that savor of
propagnai, the primial purpose of tihe
organizationi is tihe galthering lip of all
"slacker records" in the comntry for
the entertinment of American boys in
the front-line trenchles. -To this end a
slacker dirive for records5 wtili be
launchled next week.--New York Sun.
Practical Jimmy.
My little cousin went away with his
mlothler to visit is aunt inl tihe couintry.

"Whly, .Jimmy," sheo saidl, "you were
so good while you were away, why do
you start acting b~adly now?"
"Whiat's home11 for?" askedl Jimmy.

If a person drops in a (quarter or miore
