over Joe Mandot over the generation

fought Mandot. and was defeated and

ALASKA AT
 THE EXPOSITION
Continued from page two)

with this exhibit there is a rest room where visitors may sit for a time and send postals to their friends in vari- ous parts of the world. This room has a number of interesting things in it, one of which is a history rug of reindeer skins. It was once the prop erty of an Eskimo chief and was made in q number of parts telling the family lore. Another trophy here is bear-skin killed in the Alaskan forests. It is said to be the hide of the largest bear ever killed. The bear weighed 1900 pounds.
 For Ala8kans who have not visited the exposition there is much of in- terest to come. Those who are in- terested in developing the agricul- tural possibilities of the land until they become verities, should not fail to avail themselves of the numerous agricultural and livestock conyen- tions and shows which began Septem- Der 3Oth and last throughout October and November. Experts from all over the world will lecture with stereoptican and moving picture ac- compartments.

Payette enterprise. (Payette, Canyon Co., Idaho) 1909-1935, 1915-08-26
MOTORS IN ARMY SERVICE
Wonderful System Has Been Evolved
for Transportation of Supplies
During the War.

Twenty thousand men are now en-
gagged in the mechanical transport sec
ton of the British army service
corps on the continent In addition
to the transport of men, ammunition
and food, motors also serve for am
bulance work, dispatch services
searchlights and gun carriers for anti
aircraft service. Among recent de,
velopments are the motor kitchens
and motor bath Houses.
For reasons Of safety the railway
base must be kept well In the rear of
the battle line. But the motors prac-
t1cally continue the railway service
up to point from which horse trans
ports or other motors can distribute
the supplies.
One of the striking features Of this
war is the motor transport column.
With each vehicle keeping station,
about fifty yards apart, and running
to set speed limit, trains nearly
mile long wind over the roads carry
ing the hundreds of tons of food and
ammunition required by the army.
A well-arranged traffic system, with
motorcycle dispatch riders, keeps
these huge conveys under control, and
their smooth working is guarantee
that the men in the trenches are we'll
supplied. The vast fleet of motor ON
nibuses forms an important part of
this transport army, and on occa-
sion, says the Sphere, they are used
to carry men from point to point when
rapid movement is required.
Eyewitness graphically describes
the operations of the motor transport
at the front This war;" he says,
has at different times been charac-
terized as war of high explosives,
a war of howitzers, a petrol war. In
two senses can the struggle on land
be called petrol war The employ
ment Of this substance In the internal
combustion engine has rendered avia- |
ton possible, and has also immensely |
simplified the work necessary for the
supply OF the army. Indeed, to such
an extent has mechanical propulsion,
whether of steam or petrol-driven
vehicles, especially the latter, taken
he place Of animal traction, that the
change caused may not unfairly be
compared to the revolution brought
about by the introduction of railways"

Sky Periscopes.

In the cities of Europe that are
liable to be visited by Zeppelin air
ships the watchers on the lookout for
raiding aircraft have suffered from
stiff necks, and also eye strain from
long continued gazing at the heavens
to detect hostile aircraft, and to meet
this difficulty opticians have devised a
special form of sky periscope. This
instrument Is constructed on the same
general principles as those used by
submarines. and the type that has
been so widely adopted for use In the
trenches on land. The device is sim

watcher can hold in his hand, and
