Kelly-C Caterpillar Tires
Have Elephantic Grip

- g. ~
When nature constructed the ele-
plant she realized that hard hoofs
would not do. Flexible feet-feet
which would not slip under their
owners great weight-were neces-
! sary. In her usual dependable way
| nature provided them.
Have you ever seen an elephants
foot in action?. Watch it as 1t comes
down on the ground, how it spreads
and grips and gives the great beast
his proverbiaf sureness of footing.
Gelly-Caterpillar truck tires operate
in exactly the same as an
elephants foot. The system Of side
air-pockets forms a number of mass

This system Of side air-pocke.s is
patented. No other tire manufactur-
err can use 1t.

Caterpillar Is only one of its big fea-
lures. Its mileage is tremendously

NORMAN'S USE U
TO SHIP FURNITURE

NJ. Norman &'sons we're one Of the
first firms in this city to ship via
truck. Early last season the firm
purchased a large truck. equipped it
with a special furniture body. and
announced that they would deliver
furniture to patrons via truck within
a radius of 1875 miles.
Since that time they have visited
nearly every town in this section with
loads of furniture. M. Norman. the
president of the firm, states that the
ship by-truck'' system is far SUI
perior to the ship by freight
method. The furniture is delivered to
1.-THE home of the customer, taken in
side and set up.
Norman's also has another new
truck, a motor ambulance purchased
last year.

GET TRUCK NOW TO
CARRY AVERAGE LOAD

.H.sEN.
That truck users are more and
more coming to select a truck to
carry their average load rather than
n big enough for the maximum
load, is the conclusion of Dixon REQ
Motor Car company of this city.
There was a time not so long ago
when the average buyer figured up
the biggest load that he w6hld ever
want to haul and then try to buy a
truck big enough to carry it," says
Mr.. Dixon But the experienced
user has come to realize that there
is nothing SO expensive as a truck
carrying half a load, unless it is the
truck which is SO slow that it wastes
the time of an expensive driver"
REQ speed wagons operate regu-
larly owe schedules requiring them
to deliver loads of a ton to a ton and
a half at points twenty-five miles dis,
tant within an hour and they have
kept to their schedule.

Germ employing motor trucks to make
doubly sure that its motor truck
equipment fits local transportation
problems and is fully equal to meet
all transportation demands. When q
concern has the right sized and prop
er kind Of motor trucks, the owner
is securing the very lowest cost per
ton-mile for delivering or hauling
goods or materials. But when he
has the wrong kind of motor truck
equipment his cost of transporting
goods or material is greater than the
difference between this over-cost and
what he would pay il his equipment
fitted his demands, represents un-
necessary loss.
