Smith Form-a- Truck
People Plan Vast
Trade Campaign

A Smith Form-a-Truck is being
placed today in the lobby OF the
Rome hotel where it will be on exit
bition all during the automobile
show. This marks the first move OF
the Smith Motor Truck corporation
in the biggest trade campaign ever
attempted in Nebraska. Henry Y
Co., local distributors, are in charge
and they say from present indica-
tons all records will be broken Tor
advance sales.
The Form-a-T Truck, with only three
years of life behind it, fills great
big want in the automobile indus
try. The constantly growing number
of out-of-date cars good as to power
plant, were a constant problem to
both he'dealer and user. By the ad-
dition of a Form-a- Truck at small
expense all problems are solved and
the owner of an old pleasure car to-
day can have brand new truck.
Dealers will be intensely interested
in the fiery red chemical wagon suit
able for fire departments, which will
be whizzing around Omaha day and
night. This is Form-a-Truck with
attached power plant The price puts
it within reach of almost the small
est community. Headquarters of the
Nebraska trade delegation is at the

Great Accomplishments of Last Year.
Results in the actual forwarding
Of this great scheme are being real

esy at the time the project was
launched. The progress made in
1916 sets a precedent in unified effort
of this character in this country.
The standardized marking of the
Lincoln Highway is a phase of i'm
provement worthy of note. Definite
established, continuous, well-under-
stood markers along route give it a
personality They identify the road
and through increasing its traffic lead
towards its improvement. With the
cooperation of the communities and
patriotic organizations along the
route the Lincoln Highway associa-

last season from New York City as
far west as North Platte, Neb., a
distance OF over l,700 miles

Clement Anticipates Big Year
For ScrippS-B00th Motors

In speaking of the Omaha Auto
mobile show in particular, and the
prospects for the sale of Scripps-
Booth cars, w. M. Clement OF the
w. NJ. Clement Motors company,
feels quite enthusiastic. "The Scripps-
Booth is rather a departure in dc.
sign from any models heretofore sold
in Omaha, and the appointment and
lines are so distinctive as to cause a
considerable amount OF comment"
he said
That the new car has favorably i'm
pressed the Nebraskans seems to be
evidenced by the fact that the Gle
ment Motors company has recently
moved into new quarters at 25l4 Far
nam street. 49,.
AT the Automobile show there will
be exhibited four different models
the eight-cylnder, four-passenger;
the four-cylinder coupe, the four-cyl-
inder, three-passenger roadster and
very handsome uniquely designed
eight-cylinder town car, Mr.. Gle
ment expects the Scripps-Booth dis
play will attract a considerable
amount Of attention at the show and
anticipates making a great addition
to the present circle OF Scripps-Booth
admirers.

which became an act of congress in
July providing S75,000,000 from the
federal treasury for aid to the states
in constructing their main highways,
is a step in the right direction and
shows the trend of the times. With
out a doubt the passage of this act
was a reflection of the kind of public
sentiment which the Lincoln Highway
association and kindred organizations
are creating,
1t is becoming of greater and great
er interest to the people of the crowd
ed east that the Translate road in
Nebraska, in Wyoming and in Neva-
da be improved. The far west would
cease to exist if we had a broad, hard
surfaced highway drawing the west
nearer to the east and the east clos
er to the west, which could be trav-
eled by motor vehicles in wet wealth
er. The millions of dollars which
would be brought to the west from
the great east and spread all through
the wonderful playground Of America
cannot be computed, if only this
broad, hard-surfaced, travelable-in-
wet-weather, main arterial backbone
highway-the Lincoln Highway
were completed on broad, efficient
scale.
1t is coming. One of the largest
and most successful manufacturers in
the United States wrote the associa-
ton recently that his statesmen, COM
prising nationwide organization,
were endeavoring to more efficiently
cover their territories by motor car,
but were running into almost insur-
mountable difficulties in almost every
section of the country due to the road
conditions. He wanted to know what
he could do to aid toward an efficient
national highway system.

Submarines Use Same
Kind of Batteries as AuStOs

R. c. Smith, manager Delco Exide
Service station, gives an idea Of sub
marine and automobile batteries, lie
says: "The European war has brought
forcibly to the attention of the public
the use OF submarine boats and their
destructiveness Although the inven-
ton Of the submarine boat dates back
many years to the experiments Of
John Holland, near Long Island
sound, it is only in the present war
that they have been widely and sue
cessfully used.
THE submarine should be Of par
ticular interest to the owner Of an
automobile, since the same type of
storage. battery that is so widely used
for automobile starting and lighting
and also for electric vehicle propul-
sion is used for the operation OF a
submarine when submerged. A gas
engine is used for propelling the boat
while running on the surface, but
when submerged the engine is stop
ped and electric motors which de-
rive their current from an enormous
storage battery are used for propul-
sion. The storage battery Of sub
marine can be said to be N automo-
bile battery on very large scale.
The 'Exide' battery, manufactured
by the Electric Storage Battery COM
pany Of Philadelphia, which has been
so widely used for automobile start
ing and lighting, is also used in ma
jority of the submarines in the United
States navy.
"The dependability that must be
placed upon battery for submarine
service indicates the reliability that
can be placed upon 'Exide' batteries
by users of either gas or electric
cars"

By A. F. BEMENT, Secretary
The Lincoln Highway Association.

Today the Lincoln Highway has an
undisputed right to the name, THE
Main Street of the Nation" Though
but three years old, the route has a
history Of intense human interest to
all America. The story Of the Lincoln
Highway is an epic in road building,
tremendous human narrative Of the
conception OF a great idea and the
methods employed to place gigantic
plan before the practical American
public.
A drama of public service, sacrifice
patriotism, public spirit and great
achievement could be written around
the development OF the Lincoln High
way from an abstract idea to an &c
complished fact 1t would be in
spring, at times pathetic, again hui
morous, but always intensely inter
esting for the development of the
Lincoln Highway has meant constant
and continuous appeal to every type
Of individual and organization from
every possible angle. Its success has
been and is being built upon the I'M
ceasing effort of thousands of indi-
viduals in every part of the United
States. The eliminated results OF
their tremendous cooperative en-
deavor has placed the Lincoln. High
way definitely and forever upon the
map of the country and in the minds
of the people in three short years.
The Lincoln Highway is a vast
conception in the interest OF national
progress.

Truck-Maker Hits
Motor Car Industry
Like a Tidal Wave

III any proof is needed to convince
the average man that the truck-maker
business is coming like tidal wave,
it can be best accorded by the general
stampede OF automobile statesmen
everywhere to get into the truck
maker business" This statement was
made by C. F. Rcdden, president OF
the Rcdden Motor Truck company,
manufacturers OF the Redden Truck
Maker. A daily convention was held
during the week of the Chicago Auto
mobile show at Redden headquarters,
l442 South Michigan avenue, which
hundreds OF dealers attended.
Mr.. Redden states that he has been
showed under with applications for
positions from automobile statesmen,
travelling statesmen and district man
ayers. Two applications have actu-
ally come to Mr.. Redden from men
who now are sales managers tor I'M
portant automobile manufacturers
One has come from a man who is
vice president in charge OF produc-
ton.
Commenting on the wonderful
progress made by the Redden Truck
Maker and the bright future for the
Redden Motor Truck company, Mr.,
Redden said:
ITO anyone in the business OF man
ufacturing truckmakers it has been
very apparent that the magnitude OF
the business and its tremendous posi-
bilties are limited only by the re
sources and facilities of the people
in it.
There have been few in the auto
mobile industry who have not been
quick to grasp these facts, and the
general stampede during the last ten
DAYS Of automobile statesmen. branch
managers and district managers from
all sections of the country to get into
the truck-maker band wagon has
offered us an eloquent demonstration
of the frame OF mind of the automo-
bile agents throughout the country
because the travelling salesman is the
best barometer in the world"

CHALMERS OUTLOOK
FOR YEAR IS BRIGHT
Is One Of Largest Plants in the
Country, with Large Out
put Schedule.
DEALERS RIGHTS FIRST

In speaking of the outlook for 1917,
with particular reference to the
Chalmers outlook, E. V. Abbott Of
the Western Motor Car company has
summed the thing up in a manner
somewhat similar to this:
with one of the largest manufac-
turing plants in the country and a
manufacturing schedule OF $4,000 cars
for 1917, it is hard to realize that the
Chalmers factory just nine years ago
consisted of one building in thirty
acres of Michigan prairie.
For the last eight years there has
scarcely been a month when some
new addition to the Chalmers plant
has not been in the course OF con-
struction. During the first fiscal year
OF the company 5000 OF the famous
old four-cylinder Chalmers 30s were
turned out. Today those same 1909
cars are still piling up the mileage.
Many of them have over 100000 miles
to their credit. odd Reliable" the
first Chalmers 80 built, has passed
the 100000 milestone and is still 60
ing.
1.-THE Chalmers people confidently
look forward to the greatest year in
their history and are preparing for it
on larger scale than ever before.
Chalmers dealer representation has
been increased greatly and competi-
ton for desirable territory is rapidly
closing the few remaining points now
open. s..
in regard to our own policies we
have taken On considerable slice OF
territory and have contracted for a
surprising number of cars. It is our
plan to operate on very large scale
and to work along lines OF broadest
construction. We will maintain a
rigid respect for our dealers and their
rights as well as the owner and serv-
ice due them.
"The personnel of our company
consists of Charles R. Hannah, IT,;
Walter S. Johnson and myself. We
will maintain branch at Hastings,
Lincoln and Hooper.

Washington Pays Out
Bio Sum for RoadWayS

1t has cost the state of Washington
$l6,344.E to obtain right-of-way for
the state highways during the last two
years. The usual practice is to nego-
tiate with the owners. In most in
stances the property needed has been
secured free of charge, the benefits OF
the road construction being more than
sufficient to offset the loss of the land
to the owner. Condemnation suits
have been brought when the land has
been held at what are considered ex-
orbitant figures.

The numbers change in accordance
with the speed, thus enabling persons
on the sidewalks or travelling behind
to note the speed. The device is

might be unjustly charged with NOV
ing at an unlawful rate OF speed.

TEACHERS TAKE NOFICE.

A letter from the Provost Marshal
General has been received In this
Office, requesting that we convey to
every teacher in this jurisdiction, the
following:
II desire to impress upon you the
necessity for disinterested advice and
aid to registrants, especially the poor
or ignorant, in answering their Ques-
tionnaires, and for competent volun-
teer clerical assistance to the selec-
tion boards; and l wish to call to all
teachers particular attention to the
Presidents call to national service Of
all citizens:
I call upon all citizens therefore,
to assist local and district boards by
proffering such service and such ma
terial conveniences as they can offer
and by appearing before the boards,
either upon summons, or upon their
own initiative to give such informa-
tion as will be useful in classifying
regiStrants.'
upon the abundant giving of such
assistance depends in large measure
the success of the new system, and
success involves speed and accuracy
coupled with the doing of complete
justice, both to the registrant and to
the nation.
Volunteer workers will receive
all necessary instructions and liter
ature from the Local Boards"

a play called "The Jonah" on Satur-
day, Dec. %, to be given in the rink.
The money derived from the play will
go towards defraying the cost of our

has already been installed.
The story of the play is as follows:
A henpecked husband, who is in the
habit of walking in the straight path,
celebrates too gaily his sons return
after three years absence. The
morning after, the trouble begins. A
down-aud-out stranger arrives whom
he has invited the night before to pay
him visit He tells startling stories
to the wife. The son is confronted
by a girl who supposed she had be-
come engaged to him three years be-
fore. The complications that arise
are uproarously funny.
