! the entire country. The dealers ac-
cepted the invitation of L. E. KEEP
lpel. branch manager of the Firestone
Tire and Rubber company Of Rich
mond to meet the two trucks sent
here by the Firestone factory which
arrived early Thursday morning A
big motor truck parade will be given
this afternoon which starts at the old
Eiba-Street Station at 4:30 p. NJ.
More than $50 trucks will participate
in this parade and there will be
representation by the City Police De-
apartment and the city fire departing nt
with their trucks. There viii also be
one Oh more bands in the parade
which will be headed by the two
Firestone trucks which are now
touring the country in the interest OF
the ship by Truck Movement"

parade is to promote interest In the

braces motor express and private lines

1t would be difficult to conceive of
any movement that would be of more
benefit to the farmers through the
state as well as the business men
than this. ship by Truck Movement"
The possibilities OF the motor truck
as a facility to be utilized in the
movement of farm products are enor-
nous. When motor express lines are
operating over a net work Of roads in
the south, IT will mean the conserva
ton of millions OF dollars OF food and
the saving of as many more dollars
that are now being wasted by anti
quated methods OF hauling. In the
United States there are more than 500
motor express lines in successful
operation. California has $50 alone. In
Iowa they have divided the state into
districts and each district is being
served by motor express line which
is hauling for merchants manufac-
turers and farmers. These lines are
proving OF great benefit to the users
and profit to the operators.
The meeting last night was well at
! tended by the motor truck dealers and
steps were taken to form a pefma-
| nent organization for the promotion
