punctured on the entire trip. either

in the PecOs valley or on the return.
and the tires looked as good as new
when FL PaSO was reached. The total
mileage Of the round trip, including
trips in the Pecos valley. was 612
miles. The Velie never missed fire
during the trip. On the way back the
car only used quart of water and a
quart of oil on the III miles through
the country between Carlsbad and
Van Horn, the toughest of the whole
trip The trip required seven and a
half hours from Carlsbad to Van
Horn, including stops, as Van Horn
was reached at 1870 in the afternoon.
Ran Into a Rain.
Rain fell on the party for a dis
lance of some 40 miles and made the
roads slippery This necessitated
slow going for a time and served to
lengthen the running time on the
road.
From Van Horn to FL Paso, the trip
was made between 1870 and o'clock.
with an hour for lunch The road is
splendid from Van Horn to FL Paso
and is like a dancing floor almost all
the way from Sierra Blanca to FL
Paso. In some places chuck holes are
appearing and these should be fixed
at once while they are yet inexpen-
sive, for chuck holes soon become big
and the road is soon ruined
There is a stretch of road in Huds-
peth county. east of Fort Hancock,
where the road has recently been
built. that needs a rain to make it
good, and it should then be dragged.
There is a badly washed out section
of road, including one bridge, about
y miles west of Sierra Blanca, dam
aged by the last heavy rain. This
viii cost several thousand dollars to
repair and, If not repaired, renders
the road impossible at that point
during a rain
Some Fine Road.
The distance between Van Horn and
Sierra Blanca was made in an hour
and a half It measured 80 miles.
From Sierra Blanca to Ell Paso, the
distance measured Sc miles, and this
was covered between 4:4O and 8
oclock-three hours and 20 minutes.
Those making the trip are enthus-
iastic over the good work the FL
Paso county commissioners did in
building this road. and also praise
the officials Of Hudspeth and Culber-
son counties.
1t will cost the people of Eddy
county considerable money to build
a fast road to Culberson county, but
by the expenditure of a few thousand
dollars, a fairly good road can be
made from Carlsbad.

Ell Pasoans Meet This Eve

FL Paso automobiles will meet
this evening in the chamber OF COM
merce at 1880 to form an automobile
club. Four hundred FL PasOans have
signed the membership roll and paid
their dues. This evening they will
elect directors and start plans for act
i've work in Ell Paso.
The attitude of the American Auto
mobile association to the new club is
very friendly, as has been evidenced
by a letter from A G. Batchelder, ex-
ecutive chairman of the A. A A.
Washington, D. C., to A II. e. Beckett
automobile editor Of The Herald In
part, it says:
we are of the belief that sooner
of later there will be a border line
highway across the entire southwest,
for certainly il must appear to the
average man as being a wise precau-
ton, even though we are getting TO-
gether with Mexico upon a much
friendlier basis. If there were good
broad highway leading down to Mex
leo City, over which thousands OF
American road travellers would pass,
this would serve in great degree &c
encourage the spirit of cooperation
and friendliness betneew the two
countries, particularly since Ameri-
cans would leave thousands Of dollars
in Mexico and, in many instances, in
vest in that country We have many
inquiries as to touring in Mexico and
believe that thousands of people, once
we are over this war situation, would
visit that country If IL were cOnVe-

tended trips to the other side Of the
