TRAFFIC OF OVERLAND
LIKE THAT OF BIG CITY

One OF the most impressive sights
TO those unaccustomed to the con-
centrated activity that exists about
the mammoth plants OF the WHY'S
Overland company, Is its busy traffic.
But when the fact is considered
that these plants have u capacity OF
employment for 10000 to 10000 men
and cover an area OF more than IFS
acres of floor space, then 1t becomes
at once apparent that its problems
are those Of any other community.
Factory streets run Through the
grounds between the factory build
ings. some Of them passing UNDER
meath and through the buildings
themselves During working hours
these streets are crowded with diff
ferent types OF trucks and busses,
carrying passengers to various parts
OF the factory. hauling big loads OF
castings, taking mail, materials and
other necessary articles back and
forth.
At street intersections stand traffic
cops who rule the situation exactly
Ike their prototypes on the city
thorougnfares. III some busy streets
the traffic Is controlled by sema-
phores. 1t Is interesting to study the
various kinds and types OF convey
ance used. Here and there are the
express buses delivering mali and
passengers, then come the slower
moving trucks and electric drays.
In the midst OF the traffic darts the
snub-noscd powerful pigmy tractor.
dubbed by the employees 'the Over
land Mule, 1t being a powerful Over
land motor mounted upon a short
special chassis ana used for hauling
heavy laden trailers.
All Of these streets are teemlng
with the activity OF Industrial life.
It Is true, there are no limousines
mixed in with this thronging traffic
but 1t has all oe the ear marks OF
that OF any other busy city aside
from ;he fact that its vehicles are
all typical OF factory uses.

What About This?

Apparently German propagandists
have been working in the United
States for some time. George Fran
els Train visited Columbus with a
large party of celebrities, and with
much formality drove a stake at the
intersection of Eleventh and North
streets, thus marking what he then
termed "the geographical center OF
the United States" At that time
Train delivered an address in whicn
he offered a prophecy of peculiar
interest at the present time. He pro-
claimed that in the years ahead there
would be a great war in Europe, in
volving all European nations, and
that after the war the European ma
tions would unite to destroy the
American republic. He vividly por-
trayed the fright OF the American
people in that day. and said there
would be an agitation in favor OF
removing the national capital far
from the zone OF danger near the
sea and that the removal would be
made to the geographical center OF
the republic, Columbus Neb.-Auto-

Old Faithful Landmark.

This conspicuous mass OF rock, flung
up by some ancient earth cataclysm,
rises 600 feet above the rounded
ridge OF sedimentary rocks. which
itself rises 500 feet above the Belle
Fourche river. II was useful to the
aborigines as n landmark from
which to direct their courses across

ability to do better and more profit
able and more productive work, who
are paid less than they earn. For one
reason or another they are kept out
OF places they are capable of filling.
The fault may lie in the condition of
the job market; or It may lie in the
fact that they have not estimated
things right and are attempting TO

Generally speaking. the man gets

Generally speaking, employers are
anxious to promote those who show
ability and the zeal that indicates
them to be worthy of promotion.
