This In itself Is no mean contri-
button To civilization" says a r.
Hawkinson. manager OF the United
Motors company. Moreover. u is
a thing that effects not only those
who drive motor cars but those who
use other vehicles and those who
rely on their pedal extremities as a
means OF iocomotlon
The motor car has demanded
good roads. and the people OF the
land have met the demand by build
ing them. Communities that have
heretofore been too backward TO re.
alize the value OF good roadways TO
connect them with their neighbors
have had good roads thrust upon
them ard have rcaped the benefits
from them while. In many cases, the
heavy toll Of building costs has been
borne i'm the majority by motorists
In the cities who use the highways
only at intervals. The money that
motorists have spent thru licenses
and other forms Of class taxation TO
build good roads has been a boon TO
many sections Of the country that
should not he easily forgotten.
I'm sparsely settled communities
II has helped the residents 10 In.
crease their lard values. given them
better means of communication and
made them more prosperous In other
ways. Many OF these sections could
not afford to build good roads alone.
They lacked the strength In mum
hers and In financial resources. Mo
florists In general have helped build
their highways for them.
personally believe IL II a good
thing for everybody concerned. The
cost to the rnotoris, Is mighty small
compared 70 the benefits he derives.
and he has the satisfaction OF know.
ing that he has done something
really worth while. in addition.
Moreover. getting good roads in a
community has been big help to
the motor car.
1T Is practically case Of per
petual motion. The motor car
brings good roads and the good
roads bring on more motor cars"

We have societies for. the proven

is about as far as II goes. Users

we need society to educate
users OF motor trucks TO their proper
care. winter and summer. and In
all kinds Of weather. II will mean
longer life for all trucks. greater
efficiency and economy, better
