NAMES Of Motor Car
>Colors Reflect the
War Spirit

The popular automobile colors of
1918 smack of the fighting cover
there" They have such military names
as battle red, khaki brown, rookie tan,
periscope gray, Pershing gray torpedo
boat gray, hospital red, infantry blue,
artillery red and Mist o. Marine blue
Then there are such odd hues as Mil
lori green, permanent purple, lavender
chrome yellow and cherry red While
not SO brilliant, ivory white and straw
are very striking, especially when the
wire wheels are finished in battle red
or Millori green. Another very rich
combination is maroon with old gold
stripping.
Navy gray is new color that is both
attractive and practical, being one of
those soft shades that please the eye,
wear we'll and do not show the dust
and dirt of travel. The National COM
pany ia finishing all the touring cars

signal corps of the navy in this color

F oresees Auto Prices
Double in Two Year,

Orders in excess Of production re-
cclved by the REQ Motor Car Company
the last few days are reported by
James }. Hunt, manager for the REQ in
New York. Mr.. Hunt says: "Our deal
ers are not only taking cars as fast az
they are built, but they have exhausted
the stock which accumulated during
the winter months, when weather con-
dltlons lnterfered with transportation.
And there is some indication of fur
Their curtailment of production in or
der that more government work NAV be
completed in the REQ factory.
In one week recently the number of
orders received was almost four times
as great as the number of cars built.
Practically all the orders were placed
too, with the understanding that the
cars would be driven overland to their
destinations to relieve railroad traffic.
Il feel sure that if the war lasts
two years, and it probably will. that
those cars selling to-day in the neigh
borhood of $500 or 5000 will sell for
Sl,ooo at the factory, and the other
cars VIII sell in the same proportion.
There has never been greater need
tor automobile transportation than
EXISTS at the present time, for the auto
IS the only vehicle available to afford
practical relief for the railway freipht
congestion. We cannot extend our rail
way systems fast enough to take care
OF the traffic, and we will soon find that
motor trucks will have to be handled
IN more efficient manner to ret tho
maximum relief"

After passing the track, turn right on

This leads into the Rocky Hill Road

That the war has brought homo to
almost every ono the absolute neces-
sity for economy is clear from the fact
that there has been such a tremendous
demand made upon motor car manu-
facturers this year for the type Of
car known as the touring sedan.
Where IN former years most people
used touring cars IN the spring and
sumner months, md some type OF
closed car in th.. fall and winter
months. this exceptionally clever and
desirable type of body has made it pos
sible for ell to use one car for all
kinds of weather.
The touring sedan in appearance
from the outside is exactly the same
as the regular type of sedan, but it
differs very much in that the chauffeur

Upton Trucks Veterans
Of Mexican Fuss

At Camp Upton almost the first
thing that attracts ones attention is
mud spattered army motor truck
whizzing over the rough roads Then
out of side street comes another
truck, then another and finally an
other. All are bound in different di-
rcctions' and all seem to be in a great
hurry.
If a soldier happens to be with you
he will say: "There gothic veterans. !"
You will look at the husky drivers and
think they are being referred to until
the soldier continues: "The fleet of
thirty-three Peerless trucks down here
is two years old, and saw service on
the Mexican border before being
shipped to this point. They arrived
when this place was wilderness and
have been brutes for work ever since. "
Lieutenant l.. A. Mitchell, who com
mands the 326th Motor Truck Com
pany, composed of seventy-six expert
drivers and these Peerless trucks, is
an old racing driver
The trucks not only hauled the lum-
Der that went into the many build
ings at Camp Upton, but were busy
all last winter with the thermometer
sometimes registering 25 degrees be-
low zero, hauling provisions and
stores and making themselves gen
orally useful keeping things moving.
Before the motordrome was completed
they stood in the open without pro
lection i'll all kinds of weather for
many weeks. One cannot take thirty

With all the .lard usage these trucks
have received, they keep doing their
days work on an exacting schedule.
When Walter Woods, the Peerless
distributor of this city, visited the
camp recently to find out from Lien
tenant Mitchell if the feet needed any
special attention, the latter said:
All they need is gas and water and
some oil now and then and we are able
to keep, them supplied with those

A Back Road Trip on Long island

The crowded condition of the Mer-
rick Road and the Jericho Turnpike
on any fine Sunday or holiday during
the summer months has caused many
motorists to search for roads which
are not so well-known to the general
motoring public. With this idea in
mind, the touring bureau of the Amer
lean Automobile Association, at SOL
Fifth Avenue, has laid out tour
which avoids nearly all the main
travelled highways and at the same
time provides an excellent road sur
face all the way.
Leaving Manhattan via the Queens
son Avenue to Flushing and then along
broadway through the attractive su-
burban developments of Bayside,
Douglaston, Little Neck and Manhas-
set to Roslyn. This part Of the tour
necessarily follows one of the main
routes running east through Long
Island, known as the North Hemp
stead Turnpike. The balance of tho
trip, however, is over roads that are
totally unknown to many motorists,
even those who are fairly familiar with
that section of Long Island

shortly beyond that point, turn square

mile further on is a watering trough
at the junction of two main roads.
Here keep to the left and run almost
due north along the shore of Hemp
stead Harbor to Sea Cliff, passing en-
route the North Shore Country Club.
Just beyond hotel on the left make
turn to the right on Sea Cliff Ave-
nue., and follow along this street to
Glen Cove Avenue. Here turn left
and follow winding road into the
center Of Glen Cove
Keep straight ahead on Forest Ave

road surface, to Locust Valley. The
Nassau Country Club is about half a
mile south of this road and the Piping
Rock Club is easily reached by turn
ing right at Locust Valley and run
ming south for about two miles, After
passing the postoffice, keep on for
nearly mile to cafe and turn
left on the Bayville Road to Bayvillc
This little town has an excellent bath
ing beach and in addition is the Long

to Greenwich, Conn.
Turn right at Bayville across a long
bridge over an arm of Oyster BAY

leads to Rocky Point and the CORN

West Shore Drive with fine views OF
Oyster Bay straight into the town of
the same name. Oyster Bay shines

Started by Turn of Rear
Wheel, Car Pulls Hill in High

Instead of putting the car up the
grades at high speed, to indicate hill
climbing ability, demonstrators to-day
usually aim to show how slowly the
machine can make the ascent in high
gear. Multiple cylinder engines make
very remarkable stunts of this order
possible.
For instance, the King representative
here has plan all his own. The test
hill is that on Sixtyhrst Street be-
tween Tenth and Eleventh Avenues.
The car is stopped at the foot of the
hill with the gears left in high. The
switch is turned and then the demon
strator leaves the machine. BY turn
ing the rear wheel over slightly he
gets the engine to start
Once the car is on its way the dem
onstrator hops on the running board
and steers the car halfway up. the hill
at m.p.h. At the halfway point he
returns to his seat back of the wheel
and accelerates until he is doing "a

when the window is closed, with the

bad weather the chauffeur is well
