An idea of the solidity and progressive

IN PACKARD TEST
Contest This Year Is Open to
Drivers, Shipping Clerks
and Accountants.

Its test OF last summer having proved
to the Packard company the possibility
OF saving to American business men
operating trucks the enormous sum or
$500 .000.O yearly, another truck OPP
Grating efficiency test has been decided
on.
II begins next Saturday and ends
January 81. 1920, period of one year
including every possible weather con-
dition. Packard trucks are eligible and
cash awards of s17640 are offered to
drivers. shipping clerks and accountants.
"In the first test" says X. +. Cham
berlain, manager of freight transporta-
ton department. 1.-The results showed
that the three men who have most to
do with the successful operation of a
truck are the driver. tho accountant or
hookkeeper and shipping clerk So in
this new test the awards are going to
these men. Packard truck owners will
profit by saving real money through
more economical operation and hauling
efficiency.
Much Used Standard Forms.
1.-THE one rigid requirement OF this
new test is that all operating main
tenance, cost and load data be sub
mitted on forms of the National stand
ard Truck Cost System. as in the first
test. The use OF this system has shown
Packard owners. who used II properly
exactly what they were getting out OF
their trucks in the way OF work and
how much it costs to do that work. As
general rule they learned that their
trucks were not being given all the
work they were capable of doing. Some
foa /. too, that their trucks were carry
ing large overloads.
The Packard owner starts this test
with the basic principles developed by
the Packard organization of transporta-
ton specialists He has an entire year
to apply these principles to his individual
business.
I'VE know that 1t is possible for him
to materially reduce gasolene consump-
ton. to save several hundred dollars
yearly in hauling expense and to in
crease HAULING efficiency to a very great

THREE SHEETS is ALL
BUT BOYS WRITE HOME

Writing paper is not as plentiful
over on the French battlefields as
bullets, and so the soldier boys have
been better able to send messages to
the enemy than they were to send
messages home. The enemy's mes
sage was in the form of lead. while
the only lead the boys desired, to
send home was the portion of a lead
pencil. which left an. impression on
paper, providing they could get the
paper. A few days after the armis-
tice, three of Crowley county's boys.
clifford ,FTavel. Raymond MrOabe
and Will Egans, wanted to write
home. They had no paper so they
commenced scouting around and af-
ter considerable hunting, Fravel was
able to bring back three sheets, ana
this was dividc1, each of the boys
taking one sheet and sending his
messages home.
These three boys have been for
tunate enough to be together in the
service. They will probably go thru
all the war and return in a body.
