creasing use for this up-to-date mode
Of locomotion. And Just here 1t may
be noted that for all that our army
may be a trife behind the military es-
Establishments of some foreign powers
in the use 1t has made of the auto
mobile, no such disparaging compari-
son is possible in the case of Uncle
Sans navy. The latter is quite
abreast any other nation in the uses
that have been found for the self-pro-
PEELED vehicles.
AS may readily be surmised, the
chief sphere of usefulness for motor
cars in the navy service lies in the
assistance they can render at shore
stations, such as navy yards, and at
the naval workshops which have to
do with supplying the ships with
guns and ammunition and other in
dispensible classes of supplies. The
| best evidence of what these new help
! ers can accomplish in this way is

which manufactures all the heavy

ing the work of not less than half a
! dozen horse-drawn carts. Indeed,
these four trucks perform the entire
work of transferring from shop to
shop all the material of every descrip-
! tion entering into the manufacture of
| the big guns.
One of these trucks has a capacity
of 1000 pounds; a second is capable
of carrying $500 pounds; the third
can transport two tons and the fourth,
| designed for the heaviest class of
work. is capable OF toting around a
tidy five tons. These horseless trucks
can travel with maximum load at IS

teresting function performed by an
auto In the navy is in the role of a
pay car at this self-same naval gun
factory. Once q week this pay car
makes a two-hour trip Of the various
shops OF the plant paying out to the
5000 employees an aggregate of be-
tween $4,000 and 100000 each week.
The medical department of the
United States navy has introduced mo-
tor ambulances. Both electric and
steam cars have been tested for such
service and such has been the success
of the innovation that ere long we
may expect to find auto ambulances
at every naval hospital OF any size.
The approved style of motor ambu-
lance is an is horse power machine
capable of carrying 12 persons at
speed of Is miles per hour. Space is
provided for four litters, two being
placed side by side on the floor of the
ambulance and two above 1t. 1t is
the work of but a moment to convert
the ambulance from a sort of omnibus
car with seats along the sides to a
miniature moving hospital ward with
four beds as above mentioned.

for some difference in the two sets OF

the natural course OF events the total
should approach en equity. But for the
