IMPORTANCE OF
MOTOR TRUCK
EFFICIENCY

AN important factor in motor
truck efficiency is service says
Chas. b. Shanks. general sales man
ager Of the Kelly-Springfield Motor
Truck Co. Springfield. Ohio.
There is a great difference be-
tween the pleasure car ana the
motor truck for business purposes.
The owner OF the former Is willing
10 have his car laid away for few
days for repairs, while the motor
truck used in business must stand
up 10 the work from eight to ten or
twelve hours daily. and often lot
seven days In the week.
when the motor truck Is laid
away for repairs II represents a d.
rect money loss 10 its owner. This
same man may own a pleasure car
and willingly allow 10 to stand Idle
for a day or two. but his motor truck
"a a part OF his business and repre-
sents a business Investment And
be Justly expects that It will return
aim a dividend
THAT. ls the reason why motor
truck efficiency is a paramount no
cessity and explains the popularity
Of the Kelly Springfield make. We
maintain day and night force and
carry complete sets ~ all parts IN
each Of our service stations, which
are located TO the principal centers

LAUNDRiES LIKE
K-R-I-T AUTOS

Tho increasing number OF
K.R.-T cars on the streets of
Seattle justly proves Manager
Lawson's statement that bust
ness is good
This car has not been repre-
scented quite one year in Seattle,
but Il has made a remarkable
impression on buyers OF low
priced cars.
In all probability the first
order ever taken in Seattle for
n carload of delivery cars was
that OF the Mercury Motor Car
Co. for the Supply Laundry last
week, 10 be delivered April %.
The laundry business seems
20 be Jack Lawson's long suit.
judging by the way he has sold
K-R-I-T delivery cars TO the Cas-
cade. Model, Electric. Progress
and Supply Laundries.
There are many good delivery
cars on the market, but II one is
TO take the laundry business as
a criterion. there must be some
thing exceptionally good in the
K-R-l-T.

NEWS ITEM.

Easy riding Is a factor often
overlooked when considering a
delivery car Ohe term being as
ISOLATED chiefly with touring
carsl. but the close relation
which II bears TO satisfactory
service IS Of sufficient moment
10 make It one OF the foremost
details OF construction 20 be
taken into account IN CONNER
cial car design.
The opinion was voiced by =.
4. Sands, manager OF the Water
house Trading Co. agents for
tho Lippard.stewart Motor Car
Co. OF Buffalo. In discussing
with local automobile man the
recent developments in the de-
livery car field
The time element has such d.
rect bearing on the economy
which a car effects that II Is
necessary 20 attain a good rate
Of speed AT all times. and owing
TO the character OF many city
streets. this IS done with diff
Guilty when vehicles constructed
with little attention 10 their
shock.absorbing qualities are
emploved The efficiency OF de.
livery service is IN direct proper
ton TO the area covered. and the
construction which will permit
OF tho greatest speed with the
most safety 20 mechanism and
driver Is what engineers are con
stantly striving for.
Mr.. Sands. In speaking OF the
manner IA which the Lippard-
Stewart motor trucks meet this
requirement. says The springs
OF the Lippard-Stcwart are so
designed that easy riding results
under all conditions OF loading.
This IS obtained by employing
extra long semi-elliptlc springs
OF special steel on front and
using a combination OF this type
with coil springs on the rear.
when part capacity Is carried,
tho leaf springs alone bear the
weight. but when full load is ap-
preached. the con springs come
into play and act as auxiliaries.
Knowing that the most high
~ perfected springs working
alone cannot properly protect
the car from the effects OF road
shocks. the wheels are equipped
with large pneumatic tires which
have 20 per cent greater rcsil-
lency than solid tires. We find
that our cars can. for this rea-
son. travel over roads that a big
touring car would hate 10 tackle.
and at speed that. without
pneumatic tires. would soon put
the mechanism out OF commits
sion. The capacity OF the car
for work Is thereby increased so
materially that ten and fifteen
miles additional service over the
car equipped with solid tires is
n common experience OF Lippard-
Stewart operators.

Studehakcr 35s and 25's they
