OLDSMOBIE MARKS
21ST ANNIVERSARY

Lansing, Mich. June z5.-JuIy IS q
gala month in the offices and factories
OF the Olds Motor Works because II
marks the twenty-nrst anniversary of
the company's advent into the auto
mobile world.
Every one in the organization takes
keen interest In the attainment Of our
majority" said President Yer Lin
den, because they feel very proud Of
what the company has done toward
the development Of the automotive in
dustry during the last two decades.
The Oldsmobile has the distinction
Of being the first automobile made
and introduced to the American pub
lie on a practical commercial basis.
In the years OF experiment and de-
velopment that followed, II was al

Utilization Of man power and ma
chine power to the limit Of efficiency
n the aim Of the national government
IN industry as well as IN military op-
erations. This fact was pointed out
by william Fulton Melhuish, presi-
dent Of the Fulton Motor Truck Com

The keynote Of efficiency in motor
truck manufacturing Is multiple pro-
duction with adequate inspection" !"
said Mr.. MeIhuish- That does not
mean. however, production Of q great
variety of kinds and sizes. but guam
tity production OF one model found by
long useage to be best fitted for the
purpose for which II was intended.
We are doing that very thing here at
the Fulton factory in which respect
We anticipated the wishes of the gov
ernment and the demands Of industry.
The Fulton truck from the very
start has been built only in the one
and-a-half-ton size and the results
shown by years of use by some of the
largest Industrial plants Justify the
choice Of the size. Then, too. the fact
that 30 per cent of the motor trucking
Of modern industry is done on trucks
OF from one to two-ton capacity
proves the wisdom of concentrating
on that size. The degree Of efficiency
in scientific arrangement to which the
Fulton factory has been developed
was made possible only by specializing
on one model
. Standardization Need.
Concentration on one model results
in ultimate benefit to all those con-
cerned. the manufacturer. distributor
and dealer. and especially the truck
owner. II conserves labor, space,
shipping facilities and material. and
makes ii easier for the owner to OBJ,
tain repair parts and saves the time
of the service man. All Of these things
mean time and money, and for that
reason, the price of the Fulton is
lower by several hundred dollars than
the average truck Of its class.
The United States government has
found that the only way it can bring
its war machine up. to a war footing
Is by specializing the Industries, and
the only way that industry can spe-
cialiZe 10 to concentrate on fewer
models"

TRUCKS KEEP TOWNS
IN TOUCH WITH WORLD
As Railways Haul More War
Freight, Isolation Threatens.

"A community without good roads
is an isolated community. becoming
more isolated as the railroads are
asked to haul more and more supplies
and materials for the government, as
well as for the manufacturers doing
government work." says @. A. Kissel,
president of the Kissel Motor Car
Company. Communities should real
ize this now and put their roads in
order before next fall and winter.
There Is q motor truck transporta-
ton company in the South that Is
installing motor truck lines between
cities and communities. Before each
line or route Is put into operation. the
officials Of the company go to the
community which they have in mind
tying UP with other communities and
point out to local shippers the ad-
vantages and saving which motor
truck transportation will enable them
to make.
After Selling idea.
AFTER they have sold the idea,
after the shippers and merchants of
this community decide they need mo-
tor truck transportation, and after
they have guaranteed q necessary
amount Of business sufficient to war
rant the motor truck transportation
company operating there, the trans
rcrtstion company turns around and
says In effect: The roads between
here and the town nearest to where
our trucks are at present operating
are poor roads. They are too bad for
US to operate over profitably. They
would make our transportation rates
to you prohibitive. Before we can
give you the kind Of service you need,
1t is up to this community to make
these poor roads. good roads. This
company is finding that in practically
every instance where they make this
proposition. the people Of that COM
munity see to it that the roads are
put In good shape, so that the trans
portation company can operate over
! them.
Trucks Save Money.
Truck owners know that good
| roads not only save them money, but
the shipper and public as well, be-
cause they can make faster time and
| at saving in operating expense
This was recently proven in a test
between two trucks Of same capacity,
same make and the same load. One
truck was run between two commune
ties on good roads. and the other truck
operated between two communities on
poor roads. 1t was found that the
truck operating on good roads was
able to deliver its load at nearly 1-s
per cent less cost and with nearly a
50 per cent saving in time.
This saving in time and expense
not only benefits the truck owner and
truck operator. but the producer and
consumer. because the cheaper goods
can be shipped. the cheaper they can
be sold"

Several years ago the wrist watch
was introduced. And a few wore 1t.
II was new and 1t was ridiculed. 1t
made material for the newspaper car
toonists and for the joke-smiths. 1t
was called sissyfied: and the man
wearing IT was portrayed as a cigar
ette-smoking, cane-sucking. vacuum
headed imbecile.
And because Of this the few who
had dared to wear a wrist watch gave
II up. In spote of all its conveniences.
Then the great war broke, and men
in uniform appeared-and each wore
wrist watch. Infantrymen, cavalry
men, aviators-all.
And the wrist was stamped Okay;
and now a wrist watch excites no
| more comment than a pair Of shoes.
The wrist watch hadn't changed: II
was the same practical conyenien,
way OF carrying a watch.
But men had been afraid.

we did we'll. Farmers are willing
to break it, the same as they

Thus a new winter sport is
opened to hard-coal users. A
