EACH YEAH before the war, more than 150,000 people thronged the Indiaiiapolia Speedway to witness tlia supreme test of tire mileage and safety, the annual 500- mile rare. Recently, under the supervision of the American Auta< mobile Association, Wilbur Shaw drove the 500 mile course at an average speed of 100.34 miles per hour in a race car equipped with STOCK Firestone synthetic rubber tires, (he same as you can buy at any Firestone Dealer's. Imagine the punishment those tires took as they pounded over the rough brick and grinding asphalt . . 500 miles at speeds up to 135 miles per hour . . equal to 50,000 miles of ordinary travelling. When you buy new tire-s, remember â€" Firestones are the only synthetic rubber tires made that are safety-proved on the speedway for your protection on the highway. nrABNING: The tire ailuatian il â- till critical. You should continua to observe the wartime speed limii and all other fundamental precau- tlofu for conserrinv the tires that are now on 3r«>ur car- PUBLICITY AGENT J.

Whooping Cranes To Be Protected Naturalists believe that only 17 whooping cranes survive. A de- cade or two ago this branch of thu crane family was pronounced on the verge of exllnclion. In spite Of Its extrnme rarity today, vari- ous wildlife organizations are making an effort to find the pos- ellili? seven or eight nesis, to guard them and ho start the grus aniorl- cana, to give tha whuoping crane Its scientific name, on tha road to survival, says.

RA- 413S Refrigerators Soon On Market Again llostriclioiis on the production of eleclric rctriserators in Canada have been removed and according to reports from the industry "a few thousand units will he on the market toward the end of this year," the |)rlce8 board has an- nounced. H. H. Foreman, co-ordinator of capital e'luipmeut and duralila goods, said that after the conver- sion of plants to the manufacture of refrigerators had been com- pl(j,ted by the Industry, production should increase rapidly. But It would take an extended period to stock all distrlbutor-s from coast to coast. Prici'.s for the now refrisorators â- would ha established at 1941 basic period lovels, tha iioard statement said. TIio board said that with pro- duction of electrio refrigerators being resumed In tha United States, Canadian manutacturara would get assistance in obtaining priorities for imported materials and component parts. Production of electric refriger- ators was halted In Canada in 1942. Limited numbers of units wiTo riileased to dealers during 1943 and 1944 from stocks built up before manufacturing ceased. Restrictions on the production of non-nipciianical Ice boxes were reniovi'd last May. Rise of High Heels Tho r(ni<-(nl of Louis XIV of Franco is responsible for the rise of high heels, it Is said. Tiie King was distressed over the fact that he was shorter than mo.st of the men who surrounded him. He or- (lt>red slioes made witli heels that added several inches to his height. The style spread throughout Eur- ope, though women, rather than men, adopted It wiilely. â€" Pageant, â€" that • 10c package of WILSON'S O.Y PADS will kill more niea than $S.oa worth of any otlicr fly killerlll Grocery, I>ruc, Hatdware and General Store* scU and recommend WILSON'S FLY PADS.

With the approucli of the vacation -season and the de- sire to get out into the open, t>oi- son ivy becomes a dang»'r which should be avoided, says The .Strat- ford Beacon-Herald. -\ccording to .Acting Health Commissioner Frank A. Calderono of New York City, no substance ha-s yet been discovered to pro- tect people from the poison if they come in contact with the plant. The only way to escape !â- ! to avoid handling it. Poison ivy Is easy to identify. It is a shruli or vine wiiicli us- ually twines around tree trunks or runs along old stone walls. The leaves always grow in groups of tliioe.

Special atlention should be given to the finr^cr nails and the skin between the fingers. As an added precau- tion, the hair should be washed and then rul)l)ed down with al- cohol.

Total Destruction Of World Possible? >»}*6 Tho Germans came within six moiitli.^ of splitting tlie atom and possibly destroying the world in the process, Herbert .Agar, special assistant to the American Am- bassador to Britain, said in a speech last week- '•If the war had gone on an- other si.K months- it wa.i quite pos- sible that this planet would have ceased to exist, because it was probable that someone would have learned to break the atom without controiiin? It," Agar said- "Tliere was a danger that the Germans would learn how to split It first, and our scientists gave the date as Aug- G of this year.
