JOURNAL HERALD TRUCK
OFF WITH S|GN-POsTS
Will Plant Them on Highway
From Atlanta to Jack
SonvilIe

Promptly at o'clock Monday morning
The Journal-Herald truck, carrying the
metal sign posts that will mark the Of
fetal route from Atlanta to Jacksonville,
started on Its adventures, from the front
of The Journal building, where a large
crowd gathered to cheer the trail-blazers
on their way.
The vehicle is a Sampson truck of the
half-ton size, the smallest of the six
models made by the Alden-Sampson Man
ufacturing company, of Detroit 1t is
peculiarly adapted to the work before 1t,
light and fast. yet solid and staunch
enough to carry safely the heavy load of
metal.
The truck is loaded with enameled iron
signs and steel posts, to be placed at
forks and cross roads, where the tourist
might take a wrong turn. 1t carries a
full equipment of post-hole diggers, show
els, picks, axes, hammers, and all the
necessary tools for the work.
The intention is to average something
like so miles day on the better roads in
Georgia, and something less on the sand
roads in Florida which have not yet been
put in good shape. 1t is calculated,
therefore, that the truck will arrive in
Jacksonville in about ten days or two
weeks. with the work fully accomplished.
The highway will be marked for travel
lin both directions.
With the truck are w. 7. Waters,
staff representative of The Journal; Hen
nv Mullen, mechanician, of the United
Motor Atlanta company, and Herbert
Munroe of The Journal composing
