Throughout Central Pennsylvania.
Mr.. Crispen, the head of this firm
has bees connected with the sales
of cars since its infancy and is we'll
qualified in handling a saleSs and
service of any kind of car.
Recent events in the world of mo-
tor cars have changed conditions
considerably, especially with passen-
ger cars in view of the fact that the
government have curtailed the man.
lufacture of these cars after the first
of the year. and a large number of
of truck to take the place of the
passenger car.
The Crispen Motor Car Company
have purchased the rights of the In
ternational for this territory. The
International is backed by one of
the largest manufacturing concerns
in the United States who have fac
tory branches and distributing points
all over the country. Harrisburg is
one of the factory branches.
These trucks need no introduction
in this territory, there being a large
number on the road at the present
time. Several of the large depart
ment stores and wholesale houses of
this city and vicinity have been using
international for a number of years.
The Crispen Motor Car Company
have opened salesrooms and offices
at 103 Market street, and a service
station at 29 North Cameron street.
They will carry a complete line of
parts and supplies and will be back
ed up by the factory branch here.

Closing Schools and Stores
in Effort to Stay Epidemic

Carlisle, Pa, Oct. 12.-Because of
the increase in the influenza epi-
demic, the Carlisle Board of Health
at a meeting held late yesterday aft
ernoon, decided to order all stores
and business placed closed promptly
at 6 O'Clock this evening to prevent
the usual Saturday evening crowd
ing of the stores. The rule hits
banks which are open on Saturday
evening and will be effective until
further notice.
The situation in the Lower End is
bad, according to DIR. Harvey b.
Basehore, county medical inspector,
in view of the fact that there are
only three physicians to care for the
many persons i'll in and about Le-
moyne and Camp Hill. The closing
of schools is aiding the farmers in
the releasing of boys for farm work.
The epidemic at the Dickinson Stu
dent Training Corps has passed its
crisis.

NAVY NOW USES
DRY LAND SHIPS
Motor Cars Are in Service
From Maine to Cali
fornia
(By b. II. Barker, Mgr. Miller, Auto
Company.)

tBy B. II. Barker, Mgr. Miller Auto
Company.)
In the early days of the Naval
Militia, which was formed from the
ranks of the State Militia, our pres
ent National Guardsmen, it was not
an uncommin sight on the occasion
or Decoration Day. and Fourth OF
July parades to see the embryo naval
ofhcers, mounted on horses with
arms extended, and humping up and
down in the saddle, endeavoriug to
lead their divisions. OF course, 1T
was never intended that any one
connected with the navy should ride
horseback. The legs of a sailor are
sea- legs and out of place around a
horses belly. What a funny sight it
would be for the civilian to observe
the commander of one of our battle
ships, riding fore and aft, on horse
back reviewing the activities of the
ships crew. Well it was just as
funny to the officers in the regular
service to see the Naval Militia Off
GERS on horseback in a parade.
However, with the advent of the
motorcar, it is seldom nowadays that
you find a naval officer above the
rank of junior lieutenant walking.
The motorcar is the horse of the
navy. Thousands are in use at the
great training stations, navy yards
and mobilizing ports. The use of
the motorcar for transferring off,
GERS and men has steadily develop
ed until motor trucks, called by the
navy DRY Land Ships" are prov
ing invaluable in this service, both
for transporting men and mater
ials.
One of the most popular makes
or motor truck with the Navy De-
partment in all branches of service
is the dependable Diamond T, made
by the Diamond I Motor Car Co. of
Chicago. AS is seen in the illustra-
ton, Diamond I trucks have been
placed in service by the Navy De-
partment virtually from Maine to
California, and from the Twin Cities
to the Gulf of Mexico. We find them
IN Hawaii, and large numbers have
recently been sent to France and
Japan for the Army. AS a rule, we
find where good engineering prac-
t1cess are a determining factor in the
purchase of proper equipment the
Navy Departm ent naturally is more
discerning in its selections than any
other branch of the government.
There is no gueswork permitted in
the Navy. Every part of a ship is,
of course, a problem in engineering,
and so much depends upon correct
assembly and scientific practice, that
the education to- quality as an Off
Ger In the Navy is one calling for
constant concentration and applica-
ton. In the selection of Diamond
trucks for navy use, it is natural
to suppose that the perfection of
construction, developed through
eleven years of practical motor
building experience and the satis-
factory service of the truck in over
land transportation had a great
deal to do with the decision of the
purchasing department.
The business of the Diamond r
Motor Car Co. has steadily increased
and legitimately so, until their plant
is the largest exclusive motor truck
factory in the United States.
