B|C MOTOR TRUCK
 DEMAND FORSEEN

When the necessity for moving war essentials simply overwhelmed the railroads and paralyZed shipping con- ditions, the world was brought to a realization of what motor trucks could accomplish in emergencies" said Bi- lie Ferguson, of the Ferguson -keeler company, in an interview yesterday. "Thousands of business men," he con- tinued, learned the answers to their individual transportation problems and will permanently profit by them. It is apparent, on the other hand, that many others have even yet failed to come to complete realization of all that the motor truck means to present and future transportation.
 No industry, no business house re- quiring either pickup or delivery can obtain full success today without the use of one or more trucks. The pub lie demands quick service - motor truck delivery is the solution. Every day the object lesson is driven home. One merchant increases his business because of the dependability of his deliveries. His competitor. with oth- erwise equally good facilities. barely keeps his business alive because of in- ferior delivery methods"
 The farmer, too, has learned that the quick handling of his product is a vital consideration. For instance, take the case of the dairy farmer who now makes two deliveries a day with his motor truck in less time than he used to be able to make three deliveries a week. His milk is sweeter, the price is higher. And so it goes all along

SERVICE EQUIPMENT
 OF DEALERS |S b|G
 ELEMENT IN BUYING

This is the year when the dealers service equipment will count with prospective owners says G. H. Reu- ben, local KiSSel kar dealer.
 The service end has always been important, but from now on for sev eral reasons it will be of greater i'm portance. In buying a truck or pas senger car, the purchaser considers the purchase in a business way. He realizes that to get proper results on his investment he will have to take proper care of his truck or car, and knows that he will undoubtedly have to buy spare parts from time to time as well as to have necessary repairs taken care of promptly and efficiently.
 When purchasing a truck or car, the buyer makes the purchase with the intention of making good use of it. He wants to keep it in service even after some parts are worn out, le placing such parts as necessary, and having repairs and adjustments made as required
 The owner expects to buy parts and to pay for these parts, repairs and ad- justmentS. He looks at it a good deal the same as the owner of any other property. An apartment house owner would not think of building a new one if only the roof needed repairs, nor would the owner of a manufacturing plant buy% new engine if only some parts of it were worn out or broken.
 All dealers are in business to sell trucks and passenger cars, but too many overlook the selling of service After we have made a sale, we feel we have added a permanent customer to our list and if we do not hold him we can blame no one but ourselves.
 Parts will wear out-cars will have to be overhauled, and all cars wheth- l CT trucks or passenger cars, will need 1 some attention. to render the service 1 expected of them by owners.

HAL |. BIRD STATES MOTOR JAR DEMAND
 IS NOW BOUNDLESS

Where are the wiseacres now who, with fancied facts and masses of fig ures, told the world that the automo bile industry had reached a point of saturation and was about to have it's large production clothes made over into a smaller size?' asks Hal l.. Bird. local distributor of Studebaker cars.
 "I haven't heard from one of them lately. They are strangely silent with a silence that is significant. There's no such thing as ''saturation point m this business. As long as there is work to be done, as long as folk must get from one place to another quickly, comfortably and economically-and as long as human beings continue to enjoy the pleasures and healthtul benefits of life out fdoors-there'l be a market for all the motor cars the factories can produce.
 There's a tremendous demand now for all motor cars. Business never Was SO good as it is now-and with the regular selling season still to come There has been an increasing demand for automobiles ever since the collapse of the central powers last November. Since the first of the year we have
 
 has been the least of our troubles getting them from the factory in suf- ficient qualities to fill the orders on our books has caused us the only wor- ny we may have experienced.
 Although the great Sudebaker factories were back on a peace basis, producing the new Studebaker cars in quantities, 60 days following the sign ing Of the armistice, they have been utterly unable to give their dealers enough cars to meet the demands for immediate deliveries. Production has been materially increased each week since the first of the year but. with the wonderful national popularity oi the new Studebaker cars stimulatine buying activity, stacks of orders still remain thrilled to await their turn as each days production is allotted tC dealers by factory officials.
 This constantly increasing demand for new Studebaker cars-for all good cars-does not come from any one ol two particular localities 1t is genera from one coast to the other. O. course. l am not unmindful of the fact that the unusually mild winter we are enjoying is perhaps responsibl, for great many automobile sales nov that would have been made in the spring anyway. The balmy weather of the past two months has no doub stimulated interest in motoring anew and considerably advanced the reguIa selling season. But the fact remain, that the big majority of the new car. sold since January l have been pur chased by people who have never owned car before-and don't buy their cars ."in season like the veteran motorist It also substantiates my theory tha the so-called point of saturation i still a long, long way off

MORE FACILITIES MEET DEMAND FOR
 PIERCE PRODUCTS

Increased demand for the Pierce Arrow product has resulted in an enormous increase in manufacturing acilities-additiona factory build ings, additional machinery and tools, and additional personnel. This big growth found graphic expression last week in the 'unveiling' at the Pierce Arrow factory in Buffalo of one of the largest concrete smokestacks in t,.- country.
 The stack serves a powerful new battery of boilers, which in reality constitute the heart of the plant, fur nishng the power for heating, light ing and manufacturing. It towers 20 feet above the ground, is IT feet in diameter at the base, tapering to F feet at the top. It weighs 1,090 tons.
 The new power plant of the factory consumes more than S3,000 tons of coal year.

In speaking of the new Kissel GUS tom-built jobs on which the Kissel Motor Car company is concentrating this year. G. H. Reuben, local Kissel distributor, says:
 "The kissel line of motor cars has always been regarded as possessing unusual mechanical merit and perfec- 'tion of engineering design, but not until the last year have these ele- ments of excellence been clothed in body designs of the most unique and beautiful character, justifying the trade name of custom built because of their resemblance to those cars usually exhibited at the importer 5 salons"

TRUCKS PROFITABLE
 IN PAVED HIGHWAYS

The motor truck has not only shown it's ability to cut transportation costs when used on reasonably good roads but fl is also demonstrating its ability to cut down the cost of build ing the good roads which are such vital necessity if the public is to get the full benefit of the transportation savings which the truck makes possi- ble,' said C. E. Stromberg, Republic truck dealer.
 The state of Connecticut has a big road building program now under way. $5,000.000 is to be spent this year in constructing permanent high
 ways in thhat commonwealth. In do
 ing this work it has been found that the motor truck is well night indis-
 pensable. Not only has tthe basoIine
 propelled vehicle proved more eco-
 nomical in the hauling of heavy road
 building materials, but it has also
 strikingly shown it's ability to speed
 up the work to point that would be impossible without it.
 The highways commission of this state is not guessing at its savings, either, It is keeping very strict and 1 accurate records taking into account all items of original investment, up- keep and depreciation and ascertain : | ing to the dollar just what it's trucks
 are costing and just what they are making. Each truck is given a credit | of S15 per day as this figure has been | found to represent about the earning power of each truck on this particular | job. Then by substracting the cost of l operating the truck including the l drivers wages the actual earning or 1 saving of the truck is shown.

 and of this eighty, 30 are Republic trucks. These Republic trucks have 1 shown remarkable records in this

LEAGUE NOW AN ISSUE

Washington, October 49, The
league of nations has been made po-
litfcal Issue in the campaign of 1920
and has been made so by President
Wilson alone, according to the view of
Representative Simton d. Tess. of
Ohio, chairman Of the Republican Con-
gressional Committee.
There never has been any substan-
tial relief that Wilson would compel
the Senate to accept his views on the
league" said Mr.. Fess. From the
very beginning of the controversy Re
publican leaders have endeavored to
prevent the league being made a par
tisan Issue, in order that every Amer
lean Of whatever party affiliation
might be free from party bias for in
dividual action. In spite of this the
Administration leaders close to the
President have assiduously pushed
the measure in Congress and out of
1t for party advantage, as evidenced
by the action of the Democratic Ma
tional Committee endorsing it. The
attitude of these leaders will make il
an issue in spite of the efforts of Re-
publicans. The Democratic party must
accept the consequences of an issue
made on the foreign-made league
without the slightest alteration. Nc
party can win a contest before the
American people on foreign issue.

COL. ROOSEvELTS
KEEN OBSERVATION

Considering the fact that he was al
ways handicapped by bad eyesight,
Theodore Roosevelt was an amazingly
close observer Of natural life. When
he went on trips either as a hunter,
naturalist or explorer, he constantly
observed the life around him and in
this way contributed much interesting
and useful data to the records Of ma
tural history.
The trained observer, like Sherlock
Holmes" for instance, possesses the
faculty of seeing things that other
men overlook. Such observers have a
passion for minutiae that, to a less
discerning person, would seem waste
of time. But, both in detective work
and the study of nature this type OF
mind is q tremendously valuable asset
in putting two and two together and
obtaining results. Roosevelt was a
nature detective. as 1t were, and he
often obtained as much data from de-
tail as Sherlock Holmes obtained clues
from cigar ashes.
John Burroughs in his book Camp
ing and Tramping with Roosevelt,
/ has written of the Colonel's close and
accurate observations of birds and an.
imals and cites many concrete illus
trations of 1t.
when l accompanied him on his
trip to Yellowstone Park in April
1903," wrote Mr.. Burroughs, 81 got g
fresh impression of the extent of his
natural history knowledge and of his
trained powers of observation. Moth
ing escaped him, from bears TO mice
from wild geese to ehickadees, from
elk to red squirrels; he took 1t all IL
and he took 1t in as only an alert, Wig
orous mind can take II in. On tha
occasion / was able to help him iden
tify only one new bird. All the othel
birds he recognized as quickly as
did"
Srely this is remarkable tribute
to Rooseveilt's ability as naturalis
from the greatest nature writer since
Thoreau-a man who has made life
time study of the, habits Of birds
beasts and fish. 1t is the more re
parkable when one stops to censidel
the extent of Roosevelt's activities II
