DUPLEX PROVES
ABILITY IN OHIO
Toledo Fire Department Uses
1t to Pull Trucks Out
of Mud

NJ. R. Hines, president of the
United Garage Company, of Toledo,
won an order for a Duplex four
wheel drive truck from the Toledo
Fire Department by demonstrating
in unique way.
A large part of the fire apparatus
is motorized, but Toledo's streets
have not kept pace with the grow
ing city and many of the back
thoroughfares are unpaved.
This has resulted in variou;
pieces of apparatus being stalled ir
making runs to outlying districts
The fire chief discovered that the
Duplex truck could always be de.
pended upon to negotiate these bad
streets and not only get through
itself but give aid to stranded
trucks.
He several times called on the
United Garage Company to provide
Duplex to pull a hosecart or ar
engine out of the mud and snow
and at last came to the conclusion
that it would be both efficient and
economical to have a Duplex in the
department.
The result was the purchase of ar
especially built service truck de.
signed and made by the Duplex
Truck Company of Lansing, Mich.
In addition to ample space fol-
hose for use in an emergency, the
truck carries equipment so that i
can aid any piece of fire apparatu.
which may get into trouble because
of road conditions.
During the spring season wher
the streets were bad, the United
garage advertised in the local pa.
pers that the Duplex would pull out
trucks that were stuck and they
were frequently called.
In every instance. according tc
Mr.. Hines, the Duplex made good
and this has led to the sale of sew.
eral Duplex four-wheel drive trucks

c. W. Nash Talks to
University Students

A great part of the trouble be-
tween labor and employer to-day is
that the employer, as soon as he
gets a little money, feels he should
put on a stiff collar. sit in an office
and be surrounded by a lot of sec
retaries so that an ordinary man
cannot go to him.
Always play with your cards on
the table-don't try TO do things
that are cute" or sharp" Be
natural-don't try to appear some
thing that you are not. The biggest
men to-day are those who are the
most democratic.
A man that is humbly born, II he
goes along as honorably and hon.
estly as he knows how will be as
highly respected as the man who
has a millionaire for a father.

BUSINESS MEN ~
FAVOR TWIN SIX
Wants Permanent Design and
Stability of En-
craving

When men of large affairs go into
the market TO buy an automobile
what do they look for in the car
they choose TO serve their business
and personal transportation needs?
Some interesting information in
response TO that question has been
furnished the Packard Motor Car
Company recently by its passenger
transportation representatives in diff
ferent cities. They interviewed
prominent Packard owners who
within the last month have bought
either their first Twin Six or added
another to their motoring establish
ment.
Permanence of a design already
proved is valued most highly by such
engineering design as an assurance
customers. They regard stability of
of continued service of the order
they or their friends have had from
cars of the same engine equipment.
In the case of the Twin Six, so
they reported TO the Packard pas
senger transportation departm ent,
they had at their command a car
based on an engine design thorough
ly tried in the service of $4,000
owners. In the four years since its
first appearance. the Packard 12-
cylinder power plant has outrun in
performance the best the engineers
had predicted for IT, and, improved
by minor reinements incorporated
from model to model, has set a
standard that probably will endure
for many years.
Among the men at the head of
great national businesses who have
bought Twin Skies quite recently are
Edsel B. Ford, president of the
Ford Motor Company; L. P, W. A.
and F. ]. Flshef, of the Fisher Body

Atlantic Refining Co.
Builds New Plant in Ga

Atlanta, Ga, July 26.-The At
lantic Refining Company is building
an SS,0O0,000 oil refinery at Bruins
wick, Ga. The new refinery, which
will serve the section south from
Virginia and east of Mississippi, is
hailed as distinct boon to the in
dustrial development of the new
South. Situated along the Turtle
River, the Atlantic refinery will en-
joy the finest harbor and wharfage
facilities in the South for tankships
and barges. Loading tracks will
have room for fifty tank cars at
one time, assuring quick handling
of materials and prompt deliveries
at all times.
The capacity of the new refinery
will be 10000 barrels of crude oil
day. This will be brought in the
company's own fleet of tankships.

III. s. TIRES USED
IN TAXI SERVICE
Brooklyn Firm Used 200 Tires
Without Single Adjust
nent

The average automobilist. can
learn many things about values
from the taxi owner. The average
owner usually drives one car, and
gets the experience that comes from
operating that single machine. But
the taxi owner has a string of cars
in his service, and is in a position to
find out by actual test the exact
merits of various types of automo-
bile equipment.
In addition to having more cars,
the taxi man is able to study the
type of service given by cars and
equipment under the most strenuous
conditions. The gruelling, racking
treatment that falls to the lot of
| the taxicab in a big city makes it
possible to make a proper estimate
Of the value of each item of equip
ment.
The modern taxi company runs
on efficiency lines and keeps cost
and service sheets that tell him just
what he gets for his money.
The United States Tire Co. is in
receipt of the following letter from
s. H. Miskend, president of the Blue
Taxi Co., one of the big taxi firms in
Brooklyn, n. Y:
You will probably be interested
in the records we have recently COM
piled on two hundred United States
tires, 34x41 y chains and 36x4h
chains, that we purchased a year
ago this month.
We find upon investigation that
although they were used on heavy
white taxicabs in all kinds of wealth.
er and under the usual taxicab con-
ditions, we have not had one single
adjustment Every one of these
tires gave satisfaction.
Feeling that a manufacturer
would be interested in a record of
thelr goods, we are advising you of
these facts with the idea that you
may at some time want to refer
someone to us in the same line of
business who contemplated buying
ures' and you can rest assured that
we would recommend them very
highly" 'ei'

Tire dealers in small towns are
showing an increasing tendency TO
put in a line of solid truck tires,
says the United States Tire Com
pany. This is largely due 10 the
impetus given to the motor truck
industry during the war period, and
the demand even in small towns for
solid tire service facilities. The
most expensive part of the installa-
ton of the line is the purchase Of
a press, but the opportunity for
good business is overcoming this
difficulty.

Eddie Rousch is
Masked Player
BY N. E. BROWN.

Eddie Rousch's bat helped make the
Cincinnati Reds one of the greatest
scoring machines in the National
league last season. There is no rea
son why Ed shouldn't give the other
batters a run for the swatting cham
pionship in the National league in the
coming frolic.
Rousch's picture was printed yes.
terday in the fu-masked player con.
test.
The Reds tied with the Cubs last
season in scoring the greatest num-
Der of runs in the league while wind
ing UP third in the standings. They
scored 53S. Rousch batted 1888 in the
campaign, slamming out 145 base hits
in 113 games. In addition to this he
led the league In sacrifice hits-a val
liable adjunct to his smuggling in the
way of putting over runs. He laid
down thirty-three sacrifices.
He was the second busiest little
gardener in the league, accepting 1873
chance in the field. He wound up with
a fielding average of $50, perpetrat-
ing fourteen boots in the season.
Rousch broke into the major leagues
as star via the Federal league. He
was obtained by the Giants but landed
later with the Reds. He led the Ma
tional circuit in batting in 1917, hitting
at a .341 clip.

Strange Case of OHIO Man

Mr.. Smith Of Darlington was quite a
pessimist until recently. Advertise
ments Of patent medicines and other
advertisements in general were in his
opinion absolutely unworthy OF perusal.
OF course he had the same idea of ply
sicians. and that Is why he suffered
for years from stomach trouble and
constipation.
At last however, Mrs Smith has
grown tired OF the continuous Ill treat

ing from insomnia. he caused more
trouble than was to be expected from
him. A neighbor of the Smiths called
Mrs. Smiths attention to the advertise
ments of LAXCARIN In the local pub
locations Mrs. Smith decided to try It.
Sent for box. Received 1t by return
mail. However, she then eneountered
thought of before. Mr. Smith has alb
solutely refused to consider taking
that fake stuff" Finally, Mrs. Smith
was able to persuade him to take q
tablet after dinner OF course. It did
not help Mr.. Smith. on the contrary 1t
made him feel worse than before
Nevertheless. notwithstanding MI;
that Mr. Smith did not have to be per-
suaded to take the second nor the third
tablet OF Laxcarln. Obstinate In ma
that Laxcarin was helping him. So
finally. after thirty days treatment. he
confessed to Mrs. Smith that he him
self has sent for six boxes of Laxcarin
and furthermore--he does not have
to take them anymore although he has
not used whole treatment. His stom-
ach IL working well--also he has
perfect bowel movement
So now there are advertisements and
advertisements, as there are people and
people II you are pessimistic, let your
wife send for box OF Laxcarfn. II you
are not--then send for it yourself to-
day. There Is no worse misery than
stomach trouble or constipated con-

accelerates old age. Send for box
of Laxcarin. let show you that
there are advertisements in which you

MUNCIE HIGH TO
PROTEST LOSS OF
DISTRICT TOURNEY

MUNCIE, Ind, March 13.-The Mum
Gle high school basketball team which
lost to Spiceland academy team at
Newcastle last Saturday night in the
final game of the district tourney, has
gathered evidence to present to the
officials of the Indiana high school
basketball association at Purdue uni
versity Thursday, to show that it and
not Spiceland should represent the
district at the state tournament.
The Muncie officials charge irregu-
larities in the decisions of the Muncie
Spiceland game. They claim that men
were removed from the floor on the
grounds that they committed person
ais which they and their teammates
disclaim. Jones and Pylmale, the two
strongest men on the Muncfe team
were removed from the floor during
the game.
The charge also claims irregularity
by the time-keeper 1t alleges that the
time-keeper allowed the play to last
into overtime which with both Pyl-
male and Jones out resulted in Muncie
losing the. game.
No blame is attached to the Spice
land players by the Muncie officials
and team They say Spiceland played
a straight game and won through the
irregularity of the officials of the
tourney.
