PIERCE-ARR0W. TRUCKS
CARRY BIG OIL CARG0ES
Makes Daily Round Trips Of 0S
Miles In Eight and onc-Half
Hours.

There seems to be no limitation
to the possibilities of the truck in
meeting the transportation demands
brought on by the world war. Rd-
Gently the Thomas G.. Plant COM
pany. creators of Queen Quality
shoes. changed over from the use
of coal to oil at their factory, and
then came the question of supplying
an oil carrying truck that would
meet the requirements OF the Plant
company.
The Pierce Arrow Motor Car
company was able to meet all the
demands of the Plant people in
truck construction even to the sign
Gt the rear OF the truck. which is
separated from the tank and al
lows an thrush of afr so that the
letters may not be obliteratei by
the heat OF the oil within the tank.
Ii is necessary to carry crude oil al
a temperature OF from 80 to f20
degrees. Under these conditions IT
would have been impossible 10 use
gold lettering on the tank.
il was the original intention to
use this truck between Chelsea and
the Plant factory. a distance Of four
miles. Owing TO embargoes, tho
Mexican Petroleum company was
unable to dnliver oil from its Chel-
sea plant and the Plant company
was obliged TO 20 to Providence, a
distance Of 40 miles each way. maxi
irg round trip OF 9S miles. which
the truck does In eight and one halt
hours running time, The truck has
made round trip every day in
spite Of all the difficulties encount-
e-cd through snow and ice.
The. capacity OF the tank is 500
gallons. and even in zero weather
the temperature Of the oil after II
is delivered to the factory drops only
"a few degrees. In trip from Prov
idcnce one day with the temperature
zero, the oil starting at tempera-
ture OF 100 degrees only dropped
ten degrees in the four hours of en-
posure.
II takes only four minutes to load
the tank and four minutes to empty

people TO run It night aBd cay over

BOYS AND SCHOOL.

A republic such as ours depends upon the education of it's leople for efficiency. It would indeed be ridi- culous to depend upon an ignorant population br an ir1titligent exer- else of the franchise.
 Everything that increases the sum total of ihtilligent and knowledge, therefore, is of vital necessity in our republic, or in any other republic. That's why good schools are i'm perative-and no nation on earth can approach the magnificence of our public school system.
 But why don't We make better use of the school system? For instance, the military training commission of New York state has just come across startling condi- l tion. It has found that of 0,000 boys of 16, IT and Is years in New York state, only 24,00O attend any kind of school The commission re- l of this age in the state are either employed or idle.
 It is believed conditions in other states are very similar-in many of them decidedly worse.
 They comparatively few who take advantage of our high schools has l been the subject of frequent com OH paper they approach the propor- tions of national scandal. Economic circumstances should not force such large number of our young fellows into employments, and if many of taem are idle it is , still aworse.

The City Federation of Women $ clubs is calling the attemption O. employees of women to the state law regulating wages and hours of work. It is gratifying to know that the club women propose to guard the rights of the girls, because this is about the only certain way to bring about enforcement of the law. Pine Bluff women have lead in many great undertakings, but they can do no greater work than to give encoura ge- ment and support to the women and girls who are contributing to he suc- cess of ne war and the prosperity of the nation by rendering in commer- cial work.
