NEW AMBULANCES
ARE PURCHASED;
TEST WAS HARD
Army Awarding Contracts For
400 Light Vehicles; Load
to Be Only 300 Pounds

Contracts are being awarded In
Washington by the surgeon-general
OF the United States army, according
to the Army and Navy Register OF
July 8, for 400 motor ambulances OF
type which has been recommended
by a board OF medical officers con-
sisting of Maj. r. E. Noble, Maj. A.
w. Williams, Capt. P. l.. Jones and
Capt. A. C. Christie This board has
been materially aided in its conclus-
ions by the results of the observations
made by Capt. Jones on his recent
tour Of inspection in Texas and in
Mexico. @..
The problem has been to find a
comparatively light vehicle which
will run easily. The maximum load
will be about 300 pounds. The ve-
hicle win be 4-cylinder type, equip
ped with pneumatic tires and resili-
ent springs.
In a test to which such vehicle
was subjected under the observation
of Capt Jones in long trip from
Gen. Pershing's command In Mexico
to the hospital in Texas, 1t was found
that the results justified its adoption.
One of the patients transported was
suffering q compound fracture OF the
middle part of the thigh, which fur.
nished an opportunity to ascertain
the qualities of the ambulance. Capt
Jones is also engaged on the details
of two hospital trains, composed OF
10 railroad cars, including complete
operating room, personnel and kitch-
en- cars and cars for patients. The
last-named cars will be equipped with
comfortable beds instead Of bunk
racks, as is the equipment in Eu-
ropean trains. For the kitchen car
It is proposed to use the standard
Pullman outfit.

MANY MOTOR VEHICLES ARE USED
1OCARRY ROCKIES TO CAMP

The troops were sent away from
the Civic Center by Frank +. Carroll
promptly at s o'clock. After short
parade down town the cars reached
the state highway and maintained a
steady pace to San Jose, where q
stop was made to allow other troops
and cars to join the march. Through
Salinas the cars were escorted by
COWBOYS. The machines arrived at the
training camp promptly at 2 p. m,
the entire trip having been made IN
strict military formation.
While the automobile dealers fur.
nished most of the cars and had
complete charge Of the demonstration
they were generously supported by
private owners.
MotorcyeIists Give Aid.
An interesting feature of the test
was the aid given by members of the
San Francisco Motorcycle Club. Fifty
of these riders acted as patrols along
the route and enabled w. l.. Hugh
son, chairman Of the demonstration
committee, to keep in close touch
with the cars along the line OF march.
One of the largest divisions Of cars
on the trip was the Studebaker. c. N.
Weaver not only furnished twenty OF
these cars, but drove a car on the
trip. #s..:...~
The Saxon Sales Company and the
Winton Motor Company also 1ur-
nished large divisions of machines.
The Kissel Kar Company furnished
Fords, Kissel Kars and Federal trucks
for the trip. The Roth Weller Truck
, Company, the Chicago Pneumatic
Tool Company, the Morland Truck
Company and the Thomas B. Jeffrey
Company were among the truck con-
Germs furnishing machines. ..a

"Work. work, work and yet more

terey military training camp, says an
article by Fred G. Bunch in the san
francisco Examiner 81 July IL.
"The military r.authorities lald out

rockies thought they had to loaf TOO
much in the first day OF prelimlilnarles

Commissions In Sight :,
in other ways the general made
a hit with the rockies He prom
Used to make them real embryo sol
diers in four weeks, and pointed the
way to commissions in case OF trou-
BILE. AS he figured, the United States
will need at least $4,000 officers In

what the regular army, the militia

citizen SOLDIERS BREAKFAST
AT6A. N. At MONTEREY CAMP

THE general had those from the
various sections of the country VINO
have enrolled in the camp raise their
hands. It was surprising to see how
many of them came from the eastern
and middleswestern states. -
There was cheer from the San
Franciscans when the Los Angeles
hands were raised. and Los Angeles
returned the compliment when the
San Francisco digits went up. But
Los Angeles easily had the best OF
it. Gen. Sibert says he-ean take en-
rolment for, several days. So there
is still chance for San Francisco to
retrieve.
Popular With Society Buds - ~.
MANY of the civilian soldiers have
dipped into the Injuries of the Hotel
Del Monte. They have found to their
delight that the flannel shirt, khaki
breeches and hob-nailed shoes OF the
private are. welcome to the. society
buds. Civilian dress and civilian gal
lants have gone into the discard"

ROAR OF GUNS PLAINLY
HEARD $40 MILES AWAY

BERLIN, Germany.-Herr Wilhelm
Krebs, director of the Holsteln
weather and sun Observatory at
Schnelsen, writes to the Lokal- Arzes-
ger that the roar Of the guns In the
battle Of Jutland was plainly heard by
his two adult daughters at Schnei-
sen. which Is $40 miles from the
scene IF the fight. The young WON
en- claim to have heard plainly ten
individual salvos about p. in. on
May 81, at intervals of tive to ten
seconds.
Herr Krebs reports that the rumble
of artillery fire at Verdun has been
heard at Ziegenhain Tin Hesse-Nas-
sau), which is 211'miles from the bat
tlefield. In both cases, he explains
favoring winds facilitated the extra,
ordinarily long transmission OF the
sound. -

Automobiles Make Journey In
Quick Time; Time of Five
Hours and Half Made

The practicability of using motor
vehicles for rapid mobilization OF
troops was demonstrated thoroughly
July s when an army Of men was
rushed from San Francisco, to the
United States military training camp
at Monterey One hundred and twen-
ty-fiye automobiles and trucks car
ried the troops over 125 miles OF
state highways at the rate OF twenty
five miles, and the demonstration was
made without an effort on the part
of the cars, the entire number OF
machines making a perfect score.
Machines Plentiful;
Prominent automobile men VINO
had charge of the test and officials
of the army were enthusiastic over
the results. The response Of the au-
tomobile owners to the request Tor
cars was SO generous that there were
a great many more machines at the
start than were needed. In fact,
there were enough cars and trucks
at the Civic Center to transport an
army of 10000 men.
This test certainly Is a remark
able success, and shows just how
much we could depend on automobiles
~ the country needed them" said
Captain J. B. Murphy. in charge OF the
training camp. There was no attempt
at speed, and the time of five hours
and thirty minutes for the run coulo
have been reduced at least one nour
and thirty minutes in an emergency

To the Friends and Patrons of the
Mission, Greeting:
We are glad to report victory in our
mission work. God is still blessing
our work in a wonderful way Prec-
ious souls getting saved at most every
service. We are so glad of the privi-
lege of carrying the gospel to the
poor and of all things we desire the
most is to follow in the footsteps of
the lowly Nazarene. Eight of the
workers We're called to the
annual penticostal meeting at Fox,
Okla, conducted by Brother and Sis
ter Trimble, which was certainly
feast TO our souls. We witnessed
precious souls saved, sanctified and
the baptism of the hoy ghost. Acts
A. And some received the gifts as
taught in | Cor. IA On last Saturday
June II, we attended the funeral ser
vices of little Marvin Bray, aged 22
services conducted by Brother
Snider. Little Marvin-s mother gave
her heart to God in one of our prayer
meetings about one year ago, which
prepares her to meet her angel baby
in heaven. AS my health has failed
and | am not able to do the amount
Of soliciting that | have in the past
appeal very earnestly for a liberal
Offering to this work during the
of July and August If you
nave a donation | will appreciate it
'ery much if you will mail it to me |
n call phone 991.
| am sure those who have no ex-
'erience' in real mission work have |
10 idea of the great amount of hard |
work there is attached to it.
Trusting that you will be real lib
raj on these matters that precious
ouls may be helped by the kind hand
+ the Samaritan. Respectfully,
THE UNION MISSION.

WHERE OFFICE SOUGHT A MAN

ed, we want to call your attention tc
the candidacy of w. d. Humphrey
of Nowata, who is offering his ser
vices to the state on the Corporation
Commission.
Mr. Humphrey was practicing law
in Nowata when he was asked to ac.
cept a place on the Commission. He
had a law practice that was paying
him from $4,000 to 10000 a year.
He gave up that practice to accept
the work for the state. He began
with the state a little more than a
year ago. He has been an incessant
worker. He directed his principal
attention to gas conservation. As a
result gas wells in Oklahoma have
shut in a production of approximately
two and half billion feet of natural
gas that is ready to be opened up at
the call of the home and the factory.
That within Itself is a remarka-
bi' l''uIu lbl one years WOIk. BQl
that is not all he has done. He has
been active in oil conservation, in
rate cases and in all other questions
in which the people are interested
and which come before the commits
sion.
Judge Humphrey is a native of
North Carolina. In his private and
business transactions he is as solid
as the rock of Gibraltar. 1t is said
of him that he has the finest law
