ARTILLERY DUELS At
VERDUN ARE STEADY
BUT LITTLE FIGHTING

Berlin, via Sayville wireless, Dec. 20.
The so-called "Lusitania medal -
which London reports have indicated
was extensively circulated in Germany,
was privately executed and hardly a
hundred people in Germany knew of it,
the press bureau asserted today. The
medal was coined in a private house
in Munich and its makers report that
up to December l, only $50 copies have
been sold and of this number IS went
to foreign countries.
The statement was evoked by London
reports claiming that coming of such
medal was characteristic of the
German nation.''

Boston Lad Has
Many Narrow Escapes
as Dispatch Rider

william j. (Billy) Robinson, the
Boston lad who recently returned from
the European war front where he was
engaged in the actual fighting around
Ypres as dispatch rider attached to the
British troops, tells of some narrowing
experiences that befaIl a dispatch rider
in the pursuit of his daily duties.
Robinson says that his duty as dis
patch rider demanded that he wait
just in the rear of the first fighting
line, ready to fly at a moments notice
on his motorcycle to the headquarters
in the rear with such dispatches as the
commanding line officer should give
him. Oftentimes his duty had to be
performed at night and always the
darkest nights were chosen for the
fiercest attacks. and that made his
tasks all the more difficult and dam
gerous. Robinson denies that there
is any JOY in riding at breakneclt speed
along torn and uncertain road, trust
ing to luck that you will miss pitching
into one or another of the gaping shell
holes that line the way, and that you
will dodge all the shot and shrapneI
flying about. Not always does q dis
patch rider miss every shell hole:
sometimes he will pitch headlong into
one and be quite uninjured, and will
get up, haul his machine out and, if
still running, ride on with his dis
patches. But Robinson has seen many
q man pitch into hole and never rise
again.
Robinson rode an Indian Powerplus
while in service at the front and he
says 1t is absolutely remarkable the
way the Indian motorcycles stand up
under the terrific strain and the mis-
use to which they are put. He espe-
cially commends the fleXibility of the
new Indian engine. and has more than
once been thankful that there was a
plus to the power of his worthy
Steed.

Trucks in Mexico Give
Very Little Trouble

The surprise of the reports from the
United States punitive expedition in
Mexico, according to the Motor Age"
correspondent at the front, is the eX-
ceptionally light repair cost of the
motor trucks, particularly the Jeffery
Quads. The roads and trials are un-
usually difficult. including hub deep
sand and mud and some very severe
grades.
The report again proves that the
truck which drives. brakes and steers
on all four wheels is less expensive to
maintain than the rear drive type of
truck, owing to the continual climbing.
of all four wheels over the road OBJ
stacles, and the consequent elimination
of jar and vibration.

TIRE ECONOMY on TRUCKS

Motor trucks with the United States
army in Mexico are showing excellent
tire economy, considering the awful
conditions encountered. On the rear
drive trucks, tires guaranteed for 1000
miles of service under average Amer
iacn conditions are averaging 1900
to $500 miles running in Mexico. The
sharp fiinty sand simply cuts the tires
at every revolution. Owing to the four
wheel drive and steer features of the
Jeffery Quads, however. these trucks
are running on their original tires af-
ter 5000 to 1000 miles of service. and
still going strong.
