AT THE CASTLE

Adapted from the famous novel
by Frederick Upham Adams entitled
John Burt" the Castles picture for
today Is called When Men Are
Tempted" It is a play that fits
brightly from the delights OF youth
TO the vital situations of maturity.
A story Of two men and girl, and
the web that fate weaves about
them. Alfred Whitman, in the title
role. hides himself il the west. with
the brand Of a criminal upon him,
in order 20 protect the name Of the
girl ne loves. How she follows him
TO a rough mining camp, helping
him clear his name and win his
fight for fame and fortune, by un-
masking the man who so nearly
ruined both their lives, makes a
thrilling climax to this interesting.
romantic and adventures tale.

to make their calls successfully and
surely by motor.
Even before the exigencies of the
war brought salesman face TO face
with restricted travelling facilities
the motor car was successfully en-
ployed by hundreds OF statesmen.
With il they made more town per
day. did away with wasteful waiting
for trains and made unnecessary the
hiring Of special equipages for get
ting TO off the railroad points.
For those statesmen who travel
light with only an order book and
a personal grip or just a small case
of samples the roadster will con-
tinue to be the popular vehicle for
their purpose.
Scores Of Studebaker roadsters
regular stock models, are being
used in this way by statesmen in
every part Of the country and these
men say that the cars meet every
requirement.
But how about the dry goods
The roadster would be worthless 10
such a statesmen and even the most
spacious touring car would scarcely
be equal to this load of samples
Luckily that's all been solved long
ago. An enterprising traveller for
the wholesale house of Sanger Bros g.,
Dallas, Texas. easily solved the
problem, negotiating the roads Of
Lone Star State last season calling
on all Of his trade with a Stude-
baker 1000 lbs. express car. His
four big sample trunks fitted
snugly into the rear compartment
while the front seat gave him all
the comfort he could have expe-
rienced in a passenger car.
The Studebaker Express also
proved exceedingly economical of
operation. Day after day over all
sorts Of roads and under all kinds
Of weather conditions it showed its
ability to pillow along consistently
at high speed without strain or mis-
hap.
Such an experience should paint
a valuable lesson to commercial
travellers with heavy samples who
are faced with train restrictions
which menace their success this
year One Of these thousand pound
Studebaker Express cars will place
such a statesmen beyond need Of
worrying over abandoned schedules
and paucity Of trains.

SALESMAN SOLVES
TRAVEL PROBLEMS
One-TOn Studebaker Truck
Carries Big Sample Trunks
From Town to Town.

The knight Of the grip who de-
ponds solely upon the railroads to
transport himself and his samples
from town to town this year faces
the most difficult problem that has
ever confronted commercial
traveller.
With many passenger trains al
ready removed from the service and
with predictions being freely made
that passenger train schedules Will
be still further cut the experienced
salesman knows that his selling
efficiency will be greatly decreased
if indeed his entire business is not
jeopardized. 1t may also be nee
essary 20 place restrictions on the
amount of baggage allowed each
passenger, in which case many
statesmen will be still further handi-
capped.
There seems to be but one sat-
isfactOry answer 70 this trying
problem. 1t is motor cars and al
ready many statesmen are preparing

AUTO TRUCKS FOR

Saving and Efficiency of Serv-

VIII it pay the government to
operate motor trucks on rural mail
delivery routes2
Statistics collected by the United
States postal authorities and sup
in part by Investigations
made By crews Of tire testing fleets
OF the b. +. Goodrich Rubber Co,
operating in the rural districts Of
the south, show cOnclusively that
Uncle Sam can enrich himself by
at least 100000, 600 by installing
motor trucks on his farm 10 table"
routes. Data shows that the anti
quated system in vogue-the use
of the horse and wagon on $4,000
routes throughout the country-is
a losing proposition; and to the ex-
tent Of $3O,000,000 too. The few
motor truck investments made by
the government last year earned
$40, 600 apiece on an original in
vestment of $4,000 for each truck.
Moreover, communities were reach
ed by the motor trucks that had
never been visited before by Uncle
Sans mail carriers.
The assertion that there are roads
today never traversed by govern
ment delivery wagons may seem
incredulous. but the postofiice au-
thorities support the statement that
Of the 2.199,00O miles Of roads in
this country, 1,122.OG0 miles have
no mail service at all. Further
more, there are 100000 families
in our enlightened nation that have
no postal communication with the
outside world.
From these figures alone one can
see how fields of production can be
exploited TO the advantage Of the
