Paris Reaps Harvest
From Americans at
Peace Conference

Paris, April s.-Conference Paris
is gay, expensive and--anxious. The
theatcrs, particularly the homes OF
revue, are packed at every perform
ance. "Zig-Zag" at the Folies Ber-
ceres is one of the greatest Sue
cesses, and there and at half dozen
other houses seats are regularly
sold at premium. A stall costs at
least IS francs (S3) and even more,
but at those prices the demand ex-
ceeds the supply.
The same thing is true of the
fashionable restaurants. The prices
are far beyond anything ever
dreamed of by the most rapacious
London restaurateurs, but still ia
bles have to be booked in advance.
The British delegation contributes
comparatively little to the orgy of
extravaganza. The Hotel Majestic
is long distance away from Boule-
ward Paris, and the majority of the
delegates and their stats spend rest
full evenings within its comfortable,
if rather ugly seclusion, for it is a
fact not without sardonic interest
that the Majestic was built with
boche money and according to
boche taste.
The Americans are everywhere.
American officers, American off,
Gals, and American special CORE
spondents are to be found in every
restaurant and every theater, with
always considerable sprinkling Of
American women, either in nurses
or Y. M. c. A. uniforms.
The Americans at present in
Paris evidently have plenty Of
money, and the famine prices do
not worry them at all.
With them are Italians in their
gray uniforms, Poles in their hand
some and striking blue uniforms,
and odd-looking individuals, speak
ing an unknown tongue, who are
invariably regarded as Jugo-Slavs.
Everywhere one goes, too, there
are always two or three silent Jap
anese, watching, watching, watching
and SO intent that they hardly
speak even to each other.
There are places in Paris like the
Ritz hotel and such restaurants as
the Voisin, where English and
American are the only languages
one hears, but the Ritz is the ap-
panage of the conference rather than
the conference itself.

Indianapolis, Ind. April eddie
O'Donnell, the star Of the Dusen-
berg team three and four seasons
back, has signalized his return to the
big time" by filing his entry for
the 500-mile Liberty Sweepstakes, on
the Indianapolis Motor Speedway,

of the racing games stauchest sup
porters for several years, and one
of the best high-speed engine build

Duesenberg has built new car for
O'Donnell, which will lack one inch
of the maximum engine piston dis
placement. This is a four cylinder
Job with a bore of 3A and stroke
of 6A, giving a total piston displace-
ment of 299 cubic inches.
Duesenberg expects to have two
cars in the race to team with O'Don-
nell, although the entries have not

LIFE OF TRUCK
IS MANY TIMES
that OF HORSE
Carl Changstrom Shows by
the Records That Trucks
Have Not Worn
Out to Date.

How many horses will one motor
truck outlive"-is the question truck
users are asking.
Motor truck users of this vicinity,
and others interested in auto motive
topics are musing over the problem
OF the longevity OF motor truck,
principally due to the recently pro-
mulgated statistics of the United
States government to the effect that
the average working life of horse
is three years.
Carl Changstrom of the Standard
Motor Car company gave them some
information on the subject in the
intelligence that he has never known
OF an Indiana truck wearing out,
even thought they are now entering
their ninth year of service in many
instances.
He had some important news from
the Indiana factory along this line,
to the effect that the first Indiana
truck built is still running every day
for the o. Gordon stores, with head
quarters at Gas City, Ind. This truck
has run over 100000 miles, carrying
heavy loads of hardware and fur
niture and the like, and apparently
is good for another eight or nine
years of service.
He also had information about
the thirty-first truck built by this
factory. This truck is hauling mail.
EXPRESS and passengers between
Columbus, Ky, and Campbellyille,
Ky, and has been successfully doing
this for about seven years, though
in service for other tasks earlier in
its career.
The twentyninth truck turned out
by this factory is being used by the

1t has been matter of more or
less concern to T. II. McDermon,
of the Nash Sales Company, to see
that his organization will be COM
posed of as many men from the
United States army and navy as it is
possible for him to take care OF,
and among the men who are at the
present time connected with the
Nash Sales organization are several
men who have seen a good bit OF
overseas fighting.
Lieut.. Joseph N. Seymour. who
has been connected with the avia-
ton corps of the United States
army, has recently accepted posi-
ton as territory man for the Nash
Sales Company. Lieut.. Seymour has
been connected with aerial activities
in the United States since the first
wave of enthusiasm swept across
the country. Seymour was 4 mem

toured the United States and Mexi-
CO in 1911, and during that time
Omaha witnessed the exhibitions
staged by these pioneer aviato,s.
At time the United States de-
clared war upon Germany Seymour
attached himself to the aviation
corps of the United States army
and for a considerable length of
time was engaged in training
aviators in the United States. Sey-
mour was then sent to the training
fields in France and for IS months
was in charge of one of the over
seas training fields.
The last six months training
which the aviators were required to
undergo was combat training and
this is the branch of work which
Lieutenant Seymour instructed our
aviators in. He had charge of ap-
proximately IFS aeroplanes, and
from 400 to 500 pilots. This is the
