not loaded to capacity. Often it makes a special trip for a single delivery
 Tn such cases the extra expense of operating a car of several tons capacity is mostly wasted.
 '.On the other hand when not more than q ton is to be carried the light delivery truck renders one hundred per cent service
 AS the goods to be transported in crease in volume more trucks of limited capacity can. be used. They make it possible to keep the percentage of waste a a minimum.
 "And not only is cargo space saved but the operating expense is less for each load-for each unit of the fleet. AS a result of substituting strength and balance for weight-less power is required to move the weight of the car itself. Tires cost less and wear longer for the reason that there is less strain. And this is true of every essential ope- rating part.
 With more cars at command, also, 1t is possible to give more efficient ser vice. Goods can be transported over a greater area. More business con be transacted in less time.
 And the more commercial cars that bear the name of the house the more favorable the impression on others.

 The first of these occasions :s dur ing the scene in Lady Antrupps gar den. That suspicious hostess has dis covered the scar on the hand Of the man who is supposed to be Chilcote but who is fn reality Loder. Spy talk is in the air and suspicion is at once aroused Loder steps back into an alcove of the garden and by accident escapes at the same time that Chilcote, impersonated double of uncanny re- sem mblance, appears. The crowd goes into the alcove and drags the latter through a gateway, only to discover that they are face to face with Post and not the substitute.
 Another startling change occurs in the last act when Post as Loder, leaves his rooms with the substitute as Chil- cote lying asleep on the couch A few moments later. when Chilcote awakens, it is Post who is there to speak the lines.

Pneumatic Trucks

That more satisfactory performance is the ultimate aim of every truck, or fleet owner who changes from solid tires to giant pneumatics is the con- tention of W. R. Cootes of the Coetes- Garby Motor Truck company, local dis tributors. of made-in Chicago Master trucks.
 'In obtaining satisfaction,' he says, .stlle case of the pneumatic tire and the solid is analogous except that the fleet owner. or individual owner, must un derstand at the outset the difference between tire cost and the ultimate cost per commercial ton mile for the de- livery of his goods with trucks fitted with the two types of tires.
 Tn using solid and pneumatic truck tires the user is much like the passen- ser who pays higher price to ride in a Pullman car than a dayA coach. He receives superior service but has to pay a premium for it.
 Because of the higher cost of pneu- matics as compared with solids, the tire cost of any given truck fitted with pneumatics will be greater than the same truck fitted with solids, unless the tire mileage increases in the same ratio as the cost of the tires themselves
 which. incidentally, it may be expect ed to do up to an average increase of 30 per cent.
 If. however. the use of pneumatics in place of solids reduces the cost Of maintenance. the amount of gasoline and oil consumed, and increases the work output of the truck by the greater truck speed made possible, the final per commercial ton mile of goods de- livered may be considerably less with pneumatics than with solid tires.
 Pneumatic tires for trucks have come to stay. Many users of Master trucks find it advantageous to employ because of the reduction in maintenance costs alone. Higher speeds are permissible without undue | strain on the chassis, because of vibra- l .ion Especially is this true in motor express and freight transportation | work. Here a rigid schedule is main aimed and because of the greater flex- bility 6no to the use of pneumatics, lI

DUAL ROLE TRICKS BY GUY BATES POST IN
 THE MASQUERADER'

Everyone who sees "The Masque- rader' has an explanation of the tricks by which Guy Bates Post, who plays the dual role of John Chilcote and John Loder, appears to be in two places at the same time Of course, the difficulties in playing the double part are great, just from the one standpoint of the sudden shifts in characterization, makeup and costume
 But, in addition. the playwright has rtlt the star in a tight box on two special occasions in the play and it -akes the audience several moments each time to recover from the shock of seeing him in the place where it does

schedules are more easily maintained.
 But the greatest advantage of pneu- matic tire equipment is that it enables the truck to go where 1t could not pos sibly travel on solid tires. Sand, mud. ploughed fields, bad roads and snow which would ordinarily stop q solid tired truck, offer no real obstacle to the pneumatic -shod motor truck

REPORT OF GRAND JURY
 FOR JANUARY 1920 TERM

To the Honorable Jas. s. Steel, Cir cult Judge:
 We the grand jury empanelled for the January 1920 term of the Nevada Circuit court report as follows:
 We have examined 86 witnesses and returned 43 indictments. We have carefully investigated all violations of the law which have been brought be- fore us and have returned indictments in all cases where we think the eviden- lee was sufficient.
 We would especially recommend that Justices of the Peace when referring matters to the grand jury recognize only the principal witnesses in cases where there are great number in their courts, thus saving the county considerable expense.
 The attention of this Grand Jury has been called to the fact that it is a violation of the law to sell pistol cartridges, and that they would dis pose of any stock they have on hand
