Is the opinion Of G.. F. jenkins, who has
just returned from trip between these
points in his new touring car. He was
accompanied by his wife and A. w. Jen-
kins. The distance between the two
points is about 600 miles. In speaking
of the trip Mr.. Jenkins said:
Taken, as this was, Immediately follow
ing a torrential rainstorm, it was unde-
niably bad judgment. For some of the
road in the more level parts of Mary
land was series of mudholes, with bot
toms Of problematical depth, while over
the Alleghenies the road was rough and
stony beyond belief. And when one has
laboriously gone down long grades and
up other long grades. in seemingly new
er-endng series of long ups and downs,
only to be told by lone horseman that
the road ahead is little worse than that
one has been going over, it takes the
very heart out of a conscientious driver.
But the stanchness of the car and the
wonderful willingness of the motor and
the surprising power displayed eliminate
all fear of getting stuck, while the beautf-
full scenery more than repays for the
discomforts the passengers endure.
The road, as you know, really begins
at Cumberland, the head of the historic
old Chesapeake and Ohio canal. But the
disuse that both the canal and the road
have fallen into speaks volumes of. un-
willing praise for the inventor and his
steam locomotive. 1t is devoutly to be

ment for an improved road, before the
inventor and his aeroplane shall have
again made the work labor lost
But 1t will be many moons before
the beautiful roads of Ohio and Indiana
shall have lost their attractiveness for
the touring autoist, for here one may
set the throttle for, say, thirty miles an
hour. and simply hold the wheel for
straight ahead hour after hour, past
beautiful fields of corn and wheat, with
the steady pur of the motor a satisfying
accompaniment, over a smooth. straight
road stretching away ahead until 1t is
lost In the haze of the distance alone.
And so our trip, begun with a new car
Off the train only a couple of hours, time
spent In acquaintance and possible ad-

for the man who designed this surpris-
ing motor"
