 It is hoped now that no more con- tributions will come in as there is an ample fund to provide gifts for all the children that can be located.
 It would have been the easiest thing in the world to raise money among the subscribers of The Republican for the Empty Stocking Club. It was not de- sired in the beginning that any money should be contributed. It was only ex- pected that some half hundred children would be located and it was desired that the gifts should be made to them at their homes by individual volun-

and will probably not be finished be- fore tomorrow morning. though as much as p0esible will be done today. The work or the volunteers: that is. those who undertook to fill stockings, delivering the presents at the addresses of the children will probably all be put out of the way tonight.
 But there are something more than 100 children for whom presents will be purchased. Many of the purchases have already been made and that will be finished early today.
 IOhas already been discovered that some of the children who found their way into the various lists are not needy children and in three cases their par ents requested that the gifts intended for them be diverted to more needy boys and girls. In a very few cases, the children could not be found at the addresses given. Still in other few cases no addresses were given and not withstanding painstaking search they could not be located. But the best has been done that could be done in so short a time, and considering that the enterprise toward the last assumed a quite beyond expectation.

Alabama Gets 432 Nash Quad Government
 Trucks to Ln1proUe Roads
Out of 2O,56O Trucks Be Distributed Over Entire United States, 1000 Are Nash Quads-Birming-
 ham Auto Club Pushing Movement

In what is regarded as perhaps the most comprehensive nation wide move for good roads ever undertaken, approxi- mately 1000 Nash Quads are being placed by the government in active road-buiid- ing service throughout every state in the union. The Quads are being distributed by the department of agriculture to the respective state highway commissioners, and through them to road commissioners of practically every county in theUnited States.
 This announcement follows closely the adoption by the United States marines of the Nash Quad as standard equipment for expeditionary service.
 The governments good roads pro- gramme calls for the distribution of 20,0eO motor trucks of various makes and of the total number more than one-third are Nash Quads.
 The Nash Quad has a deputation with g nations for it's unusual hauling ability under abnormal conditions. It is known practically the world over for it's per formance where road conditions and trac- ton conditions are bad. In road con struction work the Nash Quad long since has demonstrated it's superiority This is due, in large measure, to it's four wheel traction and automatic locking diff ferentials.
 The trucks allotted by the government for road work were built for the United States army during the war; some Of them have seen service in various can tcnments here, while others were new and never had seen active duty.
 Undr the act of Congress. which au- thorized the distribution. the trucks are turned ever by the quartermaster's de- pertinent to the department of agricul- ture. They will be equipped by the va rious states with hydraulic hoist bodies for roadmaking work.
 Distribution of the trucks and other road-buildng material is based upon the respective road building appropriation of each state and in turn the appropriation of each county.
 Each state is to receive it's allotment of trucks, including Nash Quads, in ac- cordance with the following figures, com piled by the government:

FRANKLIN MAKES
 LOW-GEAR CLIMB Remarkable Run Made Un- der Adverse Conditions
 Brings Praise

Driving most of the distance over rain soaked, boulder-strewn roads. P E. Frost of Portland, Me. has just established an- other remarkable record for the Frank lin car by going in low gear from Port land to the very summit of Mt Wash ington, an elevation of 6290 feet, without a stop. The distance covered was 106 miles and the run was made in hours and 50 minutes. MT. Frost carried three passengers, all qualifying as official ob- serves and all attesting to the main 1n- ditionS of the trip, viz, all the way in low gear without stop.
 The run had been so extensively adver tised among the guests at the Mt. Wash ington resorts that even 4S consecutive hours of drenching rain failed to stop the test and at o'clock in the morning the party swathed in slickers and mack intoshes, piled into the car. Mir. Frost turned the switch slipped the gears into low and the car drew away
 From Portland to the foothills of the mountain is a glorious pull of 90 miles through country breathing scenic wonder ment The climb is a slow one. and at the base of the mountain the car was only two thousand feet higher than at Port land.
 The winding way to the summit of the mountain is a privately owned narrow path. MT. Frost previously had made his payment for the privilege of using 1t for ecord-breaking purposes and the car didn't have to pause at the entrance. However. the gatekeeper was at the case of the mountain with crowd of summer hesort folks that haf been waiting pt7 tiently for the Franklin to arrive.
 The first four miles up this steep incline brought forth nothing much worse than mud, but plenty of that. Since the Franklin didn't even have chains on the wheels spun and slipped and skidded but the car kept on. At the halfway house the mud gave way to rocks of all shapes and sizes, with more mud in be- tween
 You'll never make it," the observers kept repeating every time a sharp incline loomed ahead or the wheels went spin ming Finally the passengers climbed oct on the rear lenders to lend added weight directly over the wheels Like this, with the passengers clinging to the sides Of the car and dangling in all directions, the car reached the sharpest grade Of all 27-degree incline. The car made it with ease and around the corner was the Tip Top house on the tip top of the mountain.
 Not once was the car out of low gear; not once was it stopped in this rigorous trip the last part of which alone means to other cars making the climb numerous stops for water or for cooling off.
 For the 1O6 miles, the Franklin used only 10is gallans of gasoline and two quarts of oil. On the return trip, the car ran perfectly and without the slight est trace of wear and tear or overheat- ing.
 The Franklin is sold locally by the Denegre Car and Truck company.
