TRUCK MANUFACTURERS
 LABOR SAYING DEVICES TOl]NLOAD

Unloading has been given just as much study as loading by efficient truck makers and operators. As a re- suit, time saving devices which serve a wide range of requirements have been perfected.
 In some classes of work the truck body lends itself to speedy load re- moval. This is true of coal delivery and contracting york. where dump bodies elevated by hoists operated by the truck engine power. are useful, en- abljng the operator to remove the load almost instantly. In some types of coal delivery. the body instead of being tilted is bodily elevated so that coal can be chuted to the bin.
 For removing heavy objects rom the truck platform, swinging crane ap paratus has been devised. To prevent the truck from tipping when the crane is in operation, folding outriggers are used. Overhead monorail systems also are used for this purpose.
 Power winches are used to aid in the of heavy objects. Telephone companies use these truck winches also for laying cables and to assist in the heavy spools of cable.
 Just as interchangeable bodies and semi -trailers in many cases reduce loading time where the load-handling period is abnormal, so likewise do they serve to reduce unloading periods.

RUBER WALLETS

The car owner who does much work around his vehicle should certainly have one of the rubber mallets that are designated to permit hammering of polished surfaces without running the finish. For smoothing out dents in the tenders or similar disfigurements these mallets are invaluable. In an emer- gency the head of an ordinary hammer may be covered with several thick nesses of old rubber to serve the pur- pose.

The new idea in tubes

Miller Inner Tubes are surgeon glove quality. But they are, in addi- ton, built layer on layer, up to the necessary ply. Thus no tiny flaw in the fine sheet rubber can possibly go through.
 Then every tube is tested. It is kept filled for hours under heavy air pres sure to prove it utterly air-tight.

Miller experts, in the past few years. have almost doubled their tire mileage.
 Miller Tires are now the sensation. Their records are everywhere discussed
 In million-mile tests, made by many large users, they have proved their supremacy over every rival tire. And a very great supremacy. They are used exclusively today in some of the hardest tire services known in America.
 They have won hundreds of thou sands of users by their proof of extra mileage. The demand has increased stcn-fold in the past few years. Last year alone 1t increased $11 100000.

narrow escape from electrocution in
that city last week.

insulation had worn off the wire,
Scanlon receiving a severe shock.
He had presence of mind enough to
cling to the pole until released by
fellow workmen. He was removed
to his home where examination
showed he was not seriously lnJur-

by the current.
