General Pershlna,s War Map.

In installing General Pershings war
map in the old National Museum build
ing in Washington, the commanders
room at the front just as it looked
when the map was in actual use, is
being reproduced as setting. Here
will be the chairs used by the general
and his aids while they studied the
map, which changed hourly, night and
day, as reports came in and were re-
corded. The table ut which the officers
looked over documents will stand as it
used to at one side, and the walls Will
be covered with the identical lineoleum
that was background for the map.
The map was brought over in pieces
now joined together, and the conven-
tional design of the lineoleum is said
to give an odd kitchenlike domesticity
to the room in which General Pershlng
watched history writing itself In a
very literal sense on the wall.

Authors, Handwriting.

could see the original manuscripts
from which their works are printed
they would be given interesting side
lights on the character and personal

an English editor as shocking" w.

makes but few corrections on the fin

writer's whose copy Is reputed to be
neat and quite acceptable to printer
are H. G. Wells, Rudyard Kipling,
Arnold Bennett and Sir Arthur Co

know what to expect from that i'm

Sometimes his work is neatly typed on
good paper, but often it is scrubbed to
sheets torn from copybook.

France.

with some attempt ait military cohe-
sion. The truck work, however, was
more or less of problem of every
man to drive his own machine.
New System Developed.
When the American army reached
France, with the greatly restricted
area of operation, the shorter dis
tances for ordinary hauls, and the in
tense congestion of the roads, it was
necessary to develop a military pre-
Cision in handling of trucks, before
that unheard of. The French trans
port was first to develop this pre-
cision, and it's vital need was shown
in the British offensive on the Aisne
in 1917, when the enormous number
of over $500 trucks moved an entire
British corps in military formation
into the fighting line. Such a column
meant nearly 100 miles of length for
the train. And to have this body of
trucks operating properly the strict
est discipline was required.
This truck discipline was first sys-
tematized on the French lines by work
and experiments at Camp Johnson,
Fla, near Jacksonville, the mother
school of the motor transport corps,
and was soon developed into book
form and standardized for the army.
Thorough Training Given.
To the commercial truck operator,
however, the work done to train the
drivers in the handling of their yehi-
cles was far more important. Every
man who went into the corps was
given thorough training in the opera
ton of the motor vehicles, and while
the Camp Johnston school was work
ing out truck discipline enormous re.
pair and shop units were in full op
Grafton in other parts of the country
Such, for instance at Camp Holabird
near Baltimore, and at Atlanta, while
over in the West there were such
units as at San Antonio. These were
mechanical organizations for repair
work and for shop training.

When Uncle Sans armies finished
the war the motor transport corps
comprised a force of roughly 10000
trained drivers of motortrucks, cars
and motorcycles.
OF this great force, only about half
were trained drivers when they en-
listed for the service, so it was neces-
sary in order to have this force OF
men to train $4,000 men to drive auto
motive vehicles.
The ammunition trains, supply
trains, sanitary trains and casual mo-
torized units which first went over
seas were composed of trained driv-
ers, as rule. Those who came after
were the men who did not know cars,
engines, or any of the problems of
driving, particularly such problems as
driving over roads under shell fire or
with the great congestion of the roads
to the fighting zone in France. The
men who came in the second great
rush of men for the army had there
fore to be trained from the very be.
ginning to know the machine, and
then to know the problems of driving
in formation on military roads.
Big Problems Presented.
The two big phases were the teach
ing of the mechanism of the truck
engine-I say truck because this was
by far the more vital part of the
training of driving in military forma
tions of huge fleets of trucks.
Now that the war is over the prob
lem of teaching the mechanism of the
machine is by far the more important
to the commercial truck operator. AS
TO the military formation required il
the army, this can be disposed OF
quickly.
On the Mexican border, and witt
the Pershing expedition into Mexico
the problem of mass operations witt
trucks was of minor Importance. The
drivers went forward with some sem
blance of military formation, witt
certain distances between trucks, anC

TO SILENCE BATTLING RODS
Noise Made Is Source Of Much Annoy
ance to Occupants of car-Way
to Remedy Trouble.

Where long rods of small diameter
are used for brake connections, and
so forth, particularly on the smaller
cars, the rattle and chattering they
make is a source of constant annoy
ance. There is an easy way, however,
to put stop to these noises. A coil
spring One-half inch to an inch in
diameter should be firmly attached at
one end to the middle of each rod and
the other end extended under tension
to the frame side member or some 9th
err convenient point for anchorage. The
tension on these springs will hold the
rods rigid and prevent vibration and
noise.

Thousands Have Kidney
Trouble and Never
Suspect 1t
Applicants for Insurance Often
Rejected.

Judging from reports from druggists
who are constantly in direct touch with
the public, there is one preparation that
has been very successful in overcoming
these conditions. The mild and healing
influence of DR.. Kilmer's Swamp Root is
soon realized. 1t stands the highest for
its remarkable record of success.
An examining physician for one of the
prominent Life Insurance Companies, in
an interview of the subject, made the as
tonishing statement that one reason why
SO many applicants for insurance are re-
jected is because kidney trouble is SO
common to the American people, and the
large majority of those whose applica-
tions are declined do not even suspect
that they have the disease. It is on sale
at all drug stores in bottles of two sizes,
medium and large.
However, if you wish first to test this
great preparation send ten cents to DIR.

The wheel is of the regular automo-
bile type with "a by 4-inch pneu-
matte tire, this size being suitable for
use on both large and small cars. The
axle is either a broken front axle or
a short section of strong steel beam.
The emergency axle is bent or
dropped, the offset being necessary to
clear the axle-housing flange or brake
drum. The device is attached by
means of two U-shaped clamps and
nuts. The sketch shows the general
appearance and manner of attaching
the emergency wheel to the rear axle
of a car, but it may also be used in
front, as the clamps are easily shifted.

RULES FOR RADIATORS

The radiator takes so little
care that we are likely to give it
even less than it requires. Here
is a simple rule which will give
good results:
l. Keep it full, especially with
a thermo-syphon cooling system.
The less the water, the less the
cooling effect and the worse for
the motor by overheating.
#, 2. Keep it full when using al
cohol in winter. The smaller the
volume of mixture, the sooner it
boils and evaporates.
8. Keep it full.

TO PROPERLY CUT GASKETS
ent for Owners of cars-Frayed
Edges Avoided.

Everyone who owns car has had
difficulty with cutting gaskets. Try
this method the next time: Put the
material-asbestos, felt, paper, ETC.
over the hole for which it is being cut.
Take ball-head hammer and place it
on the material over the hole. Then
tap this first hammer gently with an
other hammer, and the gasket can be
cut without the frayed edges that are
so annoying.
