DEPRECIATION IN TRUCKS
Fifteen Per Cent Considered an
Excessive Amount.
UPKEEP is HARD TO FIGURE
Original Mack and Saurer Ma
chimes Are Said To Be Still
in Active Service.

The depreciation Of the modern truck Is
an uncertain quantity which. in the ma
jority Of trucks now marketed, has not
been determined on account Of the COM
paratively short length OF time in which
they have been in service. A thorough
analysis of tho period CT manufacture OF
70 per cent OF the motor trucks now on the
American market will disclose the fact that
the average age Of these motor trucks IL
less than two years.
Within a period OF three years the COM
mercial motor vehicle industry has grown
at least 500 per cent. and the actual number
of makers whose product has been on the
market or in service moro than three years
can almost be counted on the fingers.
Nest users Of motor trucks figure de-
probation at the rate OF Il per cent, this
being an arbitrary figure chosen merely
because no considerable number Of motor
trucks have been in real service long
enough 10 enable a more definite and re-
liable rate Of depreciation TO be used as
basis OF calculation. The Saurer and Mack
trucks are claimed by the makers the In
ternational Motor Company to be the old
est trucks of any make on the market.
They claim that the first Saurer truck
manufactured at Arbon, Switzerland. by
AGolph Saurer. as an experimental ma
chine for transporting embroidery ma
chimes over the Alps in 1884, is still In active
service at the Arbon plant at the present
time.
A motor truck that can endure ell tile
knocks and strains OF continuous service
for seventeen years must embody the best
of design and materials. II would seem
that crystalization. TO which all metals
are subject. regardless Of their physical
and chemical characteristics, would have
in a period Of seventeen years. caused the
first Saurer truck to have practically fallen
to pieces from the changes In the molecular
structure Of metals due TO the hammering
effect Of loads for this long period. The
machine. however, is claimed 10 be in a
condition fit for pulling readily up tne
steep grades OF the Swiss mountain roaos
under loads. Such longevity OF the motor
truck proves that the conventional depre-
ciatiou factor OF Is per cent Is much ex-
aggerated

OPPOSES MUFFLER CUT-OUT
It's Use Rarely Required, Says
Head of Abbott Company.

Among his own customers and as far
as his influence extends to other users OF
automobiles. l.. A. Hopkins. president Of
the Abbott-Detroi Company, is conduct
ing a campaign against the use of the
mufler cut-out. There are rare occasions.
he admits. when the use of the cut-out is
desirable, but I'm general the device is Of
little help 10 motorists.
- great many drivers persist in to-
tally unnecessary use OF the cut-out," says
Mr.. Hopkins particularly late at night.
when they feel immune from arrest and
when certainly II 's more annoying than
at any other time. II seems illogical
when the public demand is for cars that
will run noiselessly. and when we and
other makers have spent great deal Of
time work and money 10 build silent cars.
TO have drivers persist in making all the
noise they can. Even the theory that an
open mufFier lends power TO the car is
pretty we'll exploded by now.
1T should also be remembered that the
frightening OF horses and pedestrians by
the sudden use OF the Cut-out, as we'll as

TIRE MAN BUYS A LoZIER.

That success in long distance speed con-
tests, proving the dependability Of motor
car, appeals 20 the average man, has been
demonstrated in the recent purchase OF a
Lozier car by Hauvette Michelin. Of the
Mchelin Tire Company. To the salesman
who closed the deal Mr.. Michelln stated
that his decision was practically reached
by close observation Of the Lozier's record
in racing events. although the daily SER
vice Of the cars in the hands of his friends
also influenced him.
The Michelin car is a six-cylinder Lake
wood, finished in serviceable gray. Mr..
Michelin, who, in addition 10 his duties as
head Of the American Micheln company
at Milltown, n. j., is also a partner in the
foreign concern Of that name, intends using
the car for the jaunt of sixty-five miles
from New York City 10 Miltown. In maxi
ing this trip several times a week ma
chine was required that could cover the
distance rapidly and with the maximum of
comfort. The tire manufacturer believes
he has these desired features in his new
car.

SERVICE TO CUSTOMERS
Essential to Success, Declares
Local Ford Manaqer.

Service is what automobile owners want
nowadays" said CASTOR Plaintiff, manager
Of the Ford Motor Company's local branch.
"A man who has had one automobile knows
to-day that in buying another one it is az
important TO get a guarantee Of service
and know that the guarantee will mean
something as it is TO get car OF known
quality.
Giving service to automobile owners has
come to be the real science in the auto
mobile business. When Henry Ford start
ed the manufacture Of cars nine years ago
his investment didn't represent 5000 Now
he has a service plant on Long Island that
represents 81 10000. and all IL Is for is to
give the quickest and most efficient posi-

Of selling him tho car as It is OF taking
care OF It after ne gets a. For instance.
our local salesroom isn't large. Our SER
vice plant on Long Island has one hum
dred times as much room.
The company has effected such sys-
ten for giving service that in every SER
vice building maintained throughout the
country any telegram arriving before .
O'Clock in the afternoon asking for extra
parts is handled so quickly that tho parts
are shipped out the same day. and every
letter received BY noon brings an answer
in the shape Of the desired parts shipped
Immediately. We are never so much as
FIVE hours behind in filling orders for parts.
That IS what service has come TO mean to

With Pickett at Gettysburg

Out from the ranks OF the fortress
defenders rushed gray, world-famous
charge. Ii was division charging
! three brigades en- echelon-five thou
| sand men, led by man with long
auburn locks
Down a hill, across a rolling open,
up an opposite slope-half a mile in
all, perhaps-lay their road. Mars and
Bellona may be figured In the air
above II. II was a spectacle, that
charge, At 10 draw the fierce eyes and
warm the gloomy souls OF all the war
rior deities. Wooden may have watched
and the Aztec god. The blue artillery
crowned that opposite slope, and other
slopes. The blue artillery swung every
muzzle; II spat death upon the five
thousand.
On Went the Cool 5000.
The five thousand went steadily,
gray, and cool, and clear, the vivid
flag above them. A light was on their
bayonets-the three lines OF bayonets
the three brigades. Garrett and
Kemper and Armistead light was
in the eyes OF the men; they saw the
fortress above the battle-clouds; they
saw their homes, and the watchers
upon the ramparts. They went stead
lily. TO the eyes OF history in a curious,
unearthly light. the light OF turn in
human affairs, the light OF catas-
trophe, the light OF an ending and a
beginning.
When they came into the open be-
tween the two heights. the massed
blue infantry turned every rife
against them. There poured a leaden
rain OF death Here, too, the three
lines met an enfilading fire from the
batteries on Round Top. Death howled
and threw himself against the five
thousand; in the air above might be
heard the Valkyries calling. There
were not now five thousand, there
were not four thousand. There was a
clump OF trees seen like specters
through the smoke. II rose from tho
slope which was the gray goal, from
the slope peopled by federal batteries,
with a great federal infantry support
at hand. Toward this slope, up this
slope went Picketts charge.
Garrett fell dead. Kemper and Trim
BILE were desperately wounded. Save
Pickett himself all mounted officers
we're down. The men fell-the men
fell. Death swung fearful scythe.
There were not now three thousand.
And still the vivid flag went on and
still, 'Yaaaaih Yaaaaiihhhh. Yaiiih-

hands OF the gray were upon the guns
OF the blue; there came a wild melee
There were not two thousand now,
