Claims Tractor-Trailer
Saves Much Tire Expense

Geo. Sabourin, distributor for
the Mack truck and Troy trailer,
says:
Model "AC" Mack tractors are
built in three capacities. ga, 5R
and tx tons. The chassis are es-
sentially the same as the truck
chassis of similar capacities and
embody the mechanical features
already described. The wheelbase
length of the tractors is 1897, and
they can be equipped with a spe-
cial type of universal" fifth
wheel connection, which sets in
the frame over the rear axle and
is used for flexibly connecting a
separate vehicle of the semi-trail-
er type to the tractor.
For many forms of work the
tractor-trailer combination is the
most efficient way to utilize the

With good prospects for pleas
ant weather, despite the overhang-
Ing clouds of early morning, speed
way officials predicted today that
one OF the largest crowds in the
history of Tacoma racing would
attend the two big classics to be
staged on the Lakeyiew course
fhis afternoon.
An immense number of strang-
ers, attracted both by the army
post and by the Fourth of July
festivities, are in the city. Long
before noon parties OF race fans
began streaming out to the big
eaucer track, and it was estimated
that between 900 and 10000
persons would be on hand when
the starting signal was given.
The track was swept clean this
morning. No rain had fallen, and
the wooden bowl was dry and faE-
ter than ever before. All the
minute humps and depressions
that developed after the track was
first constructed, have been ironed
out. leaving a perfectly smooth
gibbon OF wooden planks for the
racers to comrete upon.
All twelve entries were ready
this morning for the signal that
would send them on the first long
grind. Cliff Durant, veteran of
the field, and a driver of national

J. G. Merrill of the lies Merrill
Motor Co.; Miss Gladys Morrison
of Kent, Jimmy erosion, Mrs.
erosion and their daughter Mil
bred, G. A. Stewart and Mrs.
Stewart took in Moclips last week
in Oakland cars, leaving Tacoma
Saturday evening and returning
Sunday night.
They reported the road In
Thurston county torn up for I'M
provements. In Grays Harbor
county between Montesano and
Aberdeen they had to detour II
miles up the Wynoochee river
over the ridge and back down the
Wishka river to Aberdeen. The
old plank road from Copalis
Crossing to Moclips is in bad con-
dition, and the party took the old
route, going on the beach at Cop
ais and arriving in Moclips Sun
day morning.
The whole crowd took dip in

the bathing was great.

latent power Of motor equipment.
BY using a separate vehicle as a
semi-trailer, In heavy duty trans
portation, such as coal, contract
ing and lumber haulage, a large
percentage Of the paying load
can be carried on steel tires, and
rubber tire expense reduced to a
minimum.
Great efficiency In tonnage
hauling and high ton-mile econ
omy is gained by the use OF tract
ors. The tractor need never re-
main idle. The carrying vehicle,
which represents a smaller in
vestment, can be detached for
unloading, the tractor being ready
for the attachment of another We
hicle as soon as one trailer is de-
tached. Different types of semi
trailers can be used with the same
tractor"

"RobinsonCrusoe''
By Daniel Defoe

Now. as the apprehensions of
the return OF my distemper terri
fled me very much, ii occurred to
my thought that the Brazilians
take no physic but their tobacco
for almost all their dlstempers,
and | had piece of n roll OF to-
bacco In one of the chests, which
was quite cured, and some also
that was green, and not quite
cured.
Then took some and stepped It
an hour or two in some rum, and
resolved to take a dose of II when
| lay down; and, lastly, l burnt
some upon a pan OF Goals, and held
my nose close over the smoke OF
IL as long as could bear II. as we'll
for the heat as the virtue of 1t. and
| held it almost to suffocation.
II grew now late, and | drank
the rum in which had stepped the
tobacco, which was 80 strong and
rank of the tobacco that indeed |
could scarcely get II down; imme-
diately upon this | went to bed;
and found presently it flew up
into my head violently; but l fell
into a sound sleep, and walked no
more till, by the sun, II must nee
essarily be near 3 o'clock In the
afternoon the next day.
Nay, to this hour | am partly OF
opinion that I slept all the next
day and night, and till almost three
the day after; for otherwise, l
know not how I should lose q day
out of my reckoning in the days Of
the week, as 1t appeared some
years after I had done; for II I
had lost it by crossing and recross-
ing the line, I should have lost
more than one day; but in my ac-
count 1t was lost, and I never
knew which way.
Be that, however, one way or
other, when I awakened / found
myself exceedingly refreshed, and
my spirits lively and cheerfuli
when l got up was stronger than
l was the day before, and my
stomach better, for was hungry,
and, In short. had no fit the next
day, but continued much altered
for the better. This was the 29th.
July FL renewed the medicine
all three ways; and dosed myself
with It at first, and doubled the
quantity which l drank.
July 81 missed the tit for good
and all, tho did not recover my
full strength for some weeks after.
From the 4th of July to the 14th
I was chiefly employed in walking
about with my gun In hand. a 1T
tie and little at time. as man
that was gathering up his strength
after fit of sickness: for II Is
hardly to be imagined how low l
was, and to what weakness | was
reduced.

Persons attending today's races.
who have never before witnessed
speedway contests. need show no
surprise IL the announcers tell

12o miles an hour, or two miles

stretches. An average OF 100
miles an hour for the $50 mile

In the 50-mile race the drivers
will have less need to conserve
tires and machinery, so some SEN

His latest is to hang up a record

In the middle of my labors It
happened that, rummaging my
things, | found little bag, which
had been filled with corn for the
feeding of poultry. What little re-
NAMED of corn had been in the
bag was devoured by rats. and l
saw nothing in the bag but husks
and dust: I shook the husks Of
corn out of II on one side of my
fertilization under the rock.
About a month after saw some
few stalks OF something green
shooting out Of the ground, and
was perfectly astonished whom.
after a little longer time. I saw 10
or IL ears come out. which were
OF the same kind AZ our Nnglist
barley. And l saw near Il some
other struggling stalks. which,
proved to be stalks of rice.

for two or three hours; till the fit
wearing off, I fell asleep, and did
not awake till far In the night.
When l awoke, I found myself
much refreshed but weak, and ex-
ceedingly thirsty; however, as |
had no water in my whole habita-

ing, and went to sleep again.
June 28-Having been some
what refreshed with the sleep

off, got up; and tho the fright
and terror of my dream was very
great, yet considered that the fit
of the ague would return again
the next day, and now was my time
to get something to refresh and
support myself when I should be
ill: and the first thing I did, I
filled large square case-bottle
with water, and set IL upon my
table, in reach OF my bed; and to
take off the chill or anguish dis
position OF the water. / put about
a quarter of pint of rum into 1t.

broiled It on the Goals. but could
eat very little; walked about. but
was very weak, and withal very
sad and heavy-hearted in the sense
OF my miserable condition, dread
ing the return OF my distemper the
next day. At night, I made my
supper OF three of the turtles
eggs which I roasted In thu ashes.
