Through Autos.
In any section OF the Middle West
the path leading to education has
been made smoother and moro con-
renient for youngsters than was
ever done for their cousins who lived
in the bigger cities. With the do
velopment OF the consolidated school
idea came the need for providing
dependable transportation for pupils
from their homes to district school
houses, so that school attendance
| might be regular and uninterrupted.
The absence. of street cars or steam
trains In most rural districts pre-

which was successfully met by
motor trucks.

according to II. X. Dye. president
of the local Consolidated School
Board. who has been able to gather
impressive motor transportation facts
during the past two years while
using two Requisite trucks in school

during the past winter when un-
usually heavy SHOWS produced deep
and rutty roads, the Republic trucks
used In his school district remained
at work every day hauling capacity
loads of children back and forth be-

trend towards the pneumatic truck
tire. The need for saving the high
ways OF the country was never SO
important as now.
.'In 1919 motor trucks handled
300.000.000 tons OF material. At least
three times in 1920 tho motor truck
has saved the nations transportation
system from utter collapse. The ton
mage hauled by motor truck in 1920
promises to greatly exceed that Of
the previous year.
Legislators. highway engineers
and those intimately concerned with
motor vehicle manufacture see the
need of not only more and better
constructed roads-roadsy constructed
with motor truck traffic in vIew--but
they see also the necessity OF taking
every prccaution possible to save our
present roads.
