Motor truck manufacturers, who arc

successive year for five years before

The motor truck industry is in about
the same position now that the pas

ers who think that the motor trick
never will displace the horse in the

that 1t was generally supposed five
years ago or more that this same be-

persons who have any conception Of

AUTOPRODUCTION
TODAY REDUCED
TO A Science
Plants Models of Efficiency,
Volume of Business Never
Before EguaIIed

Motor car manufacture has reached
st.g2 where the automobile plant
must lie entirely distinctive from ali
other kinds OF factories. The efftci.
ency engineer has applied his ideas TO
tie building Of model motor car fac
tories in which the laborer, by ingeni-
Gus location Of departments, is en-
abled to do much more work. with
much less labor, than ever before.
Production of automobiles has been
reduced TO an exact science.
And so We have the spectacle OF a
young fndustry-for the motor car in
dustry is still young, despite it's great
growth-setting other industries an
example Of efficiency in saving of
production cost
Il is partly because the leaders in
the motor car field today are using
the wisdom of the efficiency engineer
TO reduce the cost OF the motor car
that | have such great faith in the
future of the industry. which is being
placed en- a rock foundation Of solid
worth.
In view OF the remarkable sSediness
that has characterized automobile
sales, not only during the closing
months of last year. but during the
last three years, it seems hardly
necessary to instil note of optimism
in forecast of business for the COM
ing year. Practically every manufae-
turer reported a volume of business
never before equaled in the slack
months of the year.
This healthy increase in American
sales can be attributed largely to re-
markable records made by automobile
dealers in the farming districts. Big
crops, coupled with the highest prices
ever known in this country. have
made the purchase of automobiles a
possibility to thousands of farmers in
the agricultural sections.
But this is only one cause. The
general prosperity Of the nation has
doomed the automobile business be.
yond nearly all expectations. There
is no reason for believing that this
prosperity of the motor car business
will be influenced adversely by the
end of the war for, whatever falling
off in orders there may be in this
country-if there is any falling off
will be more than made up by the in
crease in expectation of motor cars
The automobile business has EXPERT
enced a great change in system and
wonderful prosperity in the last few
years, but the end is not yet-even
better times are coming.

USING THE FORESTS.

Cleveland Plain Dealer: The state
of Pennsylvania has seriously under
taken the task of reforestation. Re
Gently more than 25,000,000 trees have
been planted. There are large reserves
under the control Of the state commits
sioner of forests, and in order to in
sure growth of the young trees these
areas have been closed to agriculture
of all kinds. The work of the foresters
is for the future. They are sowing for
another generation to reap. They are
striving to save posterity from the
curse of a treeless world. There is no
more unselfish work.
But now there is an immediate use
for the forest lands of Pennsylvania,
and for the moment the forests of pos
terity are held to be of seconary i'm
portance. In the impending food cri-
sis every available acre must be made
productive. The Pennsylvania forest
reservations are to be thrown open for
grazing purposes, and also for cultiva-
ton where cultivation is possible.
It will be case of first come, first
served" Those who ask for land and
can prove their ability to utilize it will
be permitted to use the reserved areas
free of rent or charge of any kind.
They will require no title to the land.

TRAINING OF
GREAT Army OF
AIRMEN BEGUN
Chicago Aviation School Is
First of Seven Sta
tons
FOR MEN SEEKING
COMMISSIONS
Preliminary Work Will Be
Taught At Illinois Uni
versity
tBy Associated Press.)

Chicago May 30.--One of the busiest
centers of activity just now in connec-
ton with the training of men for SER
vice in the United States army is the
aviation field at Ashburn, part of
Chicago, about twelve miles southwest
of the central part of the city. At this
station fifty-five men are being taught
how to manipulate army biplanes. Nine
instructors have been detailed on this
work. Twenty eight machines, each of
100 horsepower, are in use.
The aviation field is a plot one
mile square, as smooth and level as a
table top and with no trees or other
distractions to handicap the flyers.
At present no living quarters for the
men in training have been erected but
they are being planned and will be
built soon For the time being the
aviation students are finding homes at
lodging houses and in private resi-
dences in the neighborhood.
Nearly all of those who are fitting
themselves at Ashburn for commits
sions in the aviation section of the
signal corps of the central depart
ment, U. s. army, are from Chicago.
All are within the age limits of TWEEN
ty-one to thirty years. Capt. j. G.
Morrow, who is member of the avia-
ton section of the signal corps, and is
chief aeronautical officer of the CEN
trail department, says that the men
are of a uniformly fine type, that they
relish their work and have shown a
splendid patriotic spirit in applying
for enlistment, as many of them have
left positions with big business con-
Germs or have foregone finishing col
lege work.
The Chicago aviation school is for
men seeking commissions in the re-
serve corps of the aviation section Of
signal officers. Beside the station at
Chicago one is operated at Mineola,
Long Island. Six more stations are be-
ing equipped and will open in various
sections of the country within a few
weeks. These stations will train men
only for the reserve corps. The train
ing station for regular army men is
at San Diego, Cal.

WINNIPEG WINS THE

third game of the series at league park
Tuesday afternoon. ..
Mclaughlin, who stood but three in
nings of bombardment from the Cana
dams on Monday, graced the hill for
the twins, and while he too pitched
good ball, the ability of the visitors
to follow passes with hits proved his
undoing. Three of McLaughlins four
bases on balls were turned into runs in
this manner.

JlMMY ADuGGAN

New York. May 3O.-(Special.)-
Jimmy Duggan, Yanks' trainer, be-
lieves that the trainer of ball team
should come in for a little more ap-
plause. Jimmie points out that the
trainer is the lad who keeps the boys
in good health and spirits. If he does
his work well the teams efficiency and
class is speeded up just that much
more. Jimmy's argument sounds rea-
sonable and so here are few words
celebrating him in the way that he
feels is due.
"All the time it's the trainer" says
Duggan. THE trainer keeps track Of
their gloves and rubs their sore spots
and counts the bats and helps them
pick out their ties and If it wasn't for
the trainer the club would bust UP in
a week. l like my job and am good
at it and I figure that my handling is
one reason why the Yanks are out in
front and are going to stay there"
Duggan is popular with the players
who enjoy his company as well as his
massaging skill. He jollies the bunch
and keeps them in good spirits as we'll
as in good shape.
A few years back Jimmy Duggan
was a boxer and while he didn't win
many belts he was good one while
he worked at it. He beat up quite a
few fast boys and then was encouraged
to take chance with Tommy Burns,
then fighting as North Brusso. Jim
my looked good for eight rounds but
went down for a kayo in the ninth.
After leaving the fight game Jimmy
took up training and has trained
hockey players, football players and
baseball players. He trained the ia
nous worlds champion hockey team
at Houghton, Mich, twelve years ago
and he trained the M. A. c. football
team at Lansing that was such a SEN
sation ten years or so ago. So it can
be seen that Jimmy knows the training
business and that the Yanks players
are profiting by the wise lunches Jim
my has picked up in his years at the
trade. He has been training the New
York Yanks for the past six seasons.

Training School.

Urbana, ILL.,, May 30.-With the ar
rival of the first twenty-five men for
Cadet School of Military Aviation, the
| University of Illinois campus has TAX
en- on the aspect of an army training
camp. The aviation school has been
established at the university by the
war department for the purpose of
giving theoretical training in military
aeronautics to men enlisted in the
United States aviation corps.
Two hundred men will be given in
struction at one time. They will arrive
here in groups Of twenty-five at week.
ly intervals and be graduated in eight
| weeks.
Instructions of the recruits will be
| in charge of seventeen members OF
the University Of Illinois faculty. The
| work will cover construction and use
of machine guns, assembling and care
of airplanes, wireless telegraphy, con-
struction and adjustment of engines,
artillery observation from airplanes,
map reading and reconnaissance. as
tronomy and meteorology, air photog-
raphy, the use of aviation recording
instruments, cross country flying,
bombing and the use of tools.
Equipment, consisting of eight mo-
tors, two planes, two wireless outfits
and other miscellaneous instruments
is expected to arrive at the school soon.
One plane for demonstration purposes
is already on the grounds.
When the full quota of 200 men ar
rives, it will be housed in the univer-
sity's armory which will be turned into
barracks for this purpose. The ar
mory has $4,000 square feet of unob-
structed floor space. 1t is being used
as a drill floor by the University bril-
gade and has a drill field in connec-
ton which is large enough for aviation
demonstrations.
Upon graduation the men will be
sent to- flying stations where they will
learn the practical side Of aeronautics.
1t is considered probable that the lar
ger part of the local graduates will go
to the flying field in Chicago at least
until the new aviation field near Ran
tout is completed.

and large enough to lay out full
sized tennis court. The markings and
net are placed as usual. Either a soft
ball, without resiliency, or small bag
filed with pebbles or beans is used
instead of the regulation ball. The
regular frame of a tennis racket is
employed, but is strung with slack
cord, or gut, forming pocket some
what after the manner Of lacrosse

with swinging motion of the arm
or wrist, and is in play until it touches
the ground, either in or out of court.
In other respects the play and count
is the same as in tennis.
The game is said to develop great
