TRUCKS ENLARGE
TRADING RADIUS
Long Trips of Butter and
Eggs Show Business
Possibilities.

With this new industrial age
comes a demand upon the merchants
to increase their radius of service
to their customers. To the alert
merchant. increasing his radius Of
service is a decisive factor in the
expansion of his business.
He can see that the motor truck
OF today is travelling nearly three
times the distance that the old
equipment formerly did, and he is
broad enough to appreciate this as
a tangible asset in adding an I'M
mense domain to the trading area
of his business. To carry Oh, in an
effective way, this new expansion
Of sorviC" to the trade. the mer-
chant must have a dependable mo-
tor truck.
That some merchants are avail
ing themselves of this extension Of
service is evident in a Brooklyn
y. Y. owners statement regarding
the performance OF Paige truck in
his delivery service. and il also
speaks well of the durability of the

distance of 100 miles. The owner
also claims that this truck has Civ
en- day-in and day-out service every
minute Of the time, and also, that
1t has never been necessary to have
the slightest repairs made.
Records like this. especially when
the distance is considered. verify the
claim that durability and servicoah hiIty
are the factors that truck builders
must keep steadfastly in mind to meet
present day needs.

Just five years to day from the
time that Prinzip cast the fatal
bomb that set in motion the war
machine of Germany and made the
world a wreck of carnage, peace
was signed at Versailles. In the
chamber of the deputies where the
history of France is enshrined with
many memento. where the Iron
Chancellor of Prussia crushed the
Republic beneath his hand forty
years ago, Germany the vanquished
the conquered. cringing and crying
for mercy, wrote the signature
that fixed her doom as world pow
er. And France, gloating and tri-
umphant, watched the proceedings
with a leer of scorn. This is Ger
many's first defeat, Frances first
triumph over Teutonic power.
She could never have done 1t with
out the aid of two other Teutonic
powers-England and America.

The Life Magazine has recently
issued a Dixie" number, devoted
to the South. Most persons con-
slider Dixieland as the section Of
country stretching across the south
eastern part of our country, bound
ed on the north by the thirty-second
parallel and on the south by the
Mexican Gulf. But the real Dixie
is co-existent with all nations;
like Utopia and the Land of the
Leal, 1t is a part of the dream-fan-
cy that gilds the softer hours of a
tired and weary world. To look
upon the sandy stretches of the
central south or to even dream
amidst the cottonfields white be-
meath the moon, is not to know
Dixie. But to sit in the quiet of
twilight and wander away into n
where the roses bloom
perennial and the magnolias glow;
where all faces are fair and all
hearts true; to lose yourself in
retrospection and see those scenes
incarnate before you which only
dreaming fancy is permitted to
know-that is to know Dixie. 1t
is not dead; it did not pass when
the Stars and Bars were folded at
Annop,otox. n will live az long nc
hearts pine for the ideal and souls
look upward through a mist OF
tears toward fairer and brighter
worlds.

way. A military writer says the
French officers demanded a salute
from every American soldier but
refused to salute an American
shavetail unless he had been deco
rated with their croix de guerre.
They seemed to maintain an air OF
and look upon the
American aid as something they
were due and the Yankees were
late in delivering. In fact Franco
has always seemed to consider her
self our benefactor and that she
should have a perpetual lease on us
because of La Fayette, who came
over to clear a grudge against Eng
land. Americans are not going to
be bullied by any nation--even the
much nattered French.

The Republicans don't know
which way to knock. They cannot
be for the League of Nations as a
party because that Would be too
high an honor for Wilson and
would rifle their reactionaries;
they cannot be against it as a par

not remain silent, because their

Some are alarmed at the fric-

Americans and French at Brest. 1t
should not be alarming; 1t is a
natural consequence. In fact, the
American public, fed up on the

the French to be nation of ang-
els, who would fall upon the Amer

tude. Instead the American sol
diers were disguised with them be-
cause of their low morality and
