GOOD ROADS PARAMOUNT
Radford Believes Autos Are
Now Nearly Perfect.

THE use OF the motor car has started
an era Of good roads. the greatest IN the
history of the world" says Harry X. Rad
ford. vice-president OF the Cartercar Com
pany. of Pontiac, Mich. Mr.. Radford
thinks that there will not be so much
Improvement IN the motor car, and thai
the greatest change will be In the roads
and streets over which the automobile
must travel.
"Never before has there been 80 muen
agitation for good roads as there Is TO-
day." says Mr.. Radford. And this IA
entirely because OF the motor car. Tine
people have just awakened TO the knowl-
edge Of how poor our roads are. but II
you take a trip through any part or the
country you will find long stretches or
nearly perfect roadwsys. and there are
hundreds Of miles more in the course OF
construction.
IL actually believe that inside OF twenty
five years every roadway Of importance
In the country will be improved to such
an extent that even the present day mo-
tor car will give continual service OF the
highest class.
"I recently visited Western city OF
about %. 900 inhabitants which has miles
and miles Of beautifully paved streets.
Just two years ago this city did not have
one foot of paving. This city Is one OF
the best examples OF how the motor car
has improved the streets. In the cities,
az we'll as in the country, there is great
road Improvement campaign going on. and
the use Of motor cars will keep IT going
until our roads and streets are a source
| OF pride"

GRADE CROSSING PERlLS
Poertner Says Motorists Do Not
Understand Railroad Signals.

While motorists are up in arms against
railroad grade crossings and are voicing
all~hinds of protests against them, little
has been done toward their elimination
heresbouts. and accidents continue to &C.
cur as before says William c. Poertner,
OF the Poertner Motor Car Company.
Danger turks at grade crossings. even
where they are protected by flagmen, be-
cause motorists generally do not under
stand the flag system used by railroads.
This was brought out forcibly in recent
accident in Connecticut and will serve as
a lesson for motorists. II is advisable
for the motorist 10 stop his machine at
the grade crossing. The white flag, &C
cording TO railroad officials, has nothing
whatever 70 do with trains, as train
man pays no attention TO any flag but the
rcd one. The Waterman at the crossing
uses a red flag only when he wishes the
train TO stop for some Gauss or another.
The white flag IS disregarded by the en-
gineer.
while a lot of touring information mas
been issued from time 10 time, 1t might
be a good plan 10 embody occasionally
such information as will be instrumental
in ayerting serious accidents.

We use patented fabric, woven with hum

formed to prevent tread separation.
