GRAMM- BERNSTEIN
 TRUCK HAS TWENTY
 YEARS BEHIND II

Nearly 20 years ago, in 1901 to be exact, an epoch making idea continued to intrude itself on then young eoun- try bankers mind. and in spite of everything advice from friends. and so forth, this idea would not down.
 That idea was, that some day there would be need of some motor driven truck, and that it would eliminate horse Fr2,wn vehicles and to some extent Eduld take care of the short haul on Hhe railroad.
 The country banker in question was B. A. Gramm of the present day Gramm- Bernstein company, and how well his idea has worked out can only be judged from the success which he has obtained from the trucks which he has been building from that time.
 Back in 1901 he produced the first Gramm commercial car in the shape of 3 small one-cylinder delivery truck 1904 saw him building the first two- cylinder truck, and it is interesting to note in connection with this that it had the more recently exploited idea Of pneumatic tires
 After several years development we find that in 1906 the four-cylinder idea had arrived. Their product by this time had advanced to a substantial point with the result that the first four

PRAIRIE SCHOONER
 ON REPUBLIC TRUCK

The prairie schooner, recalled in stories of the early West, will always prove interesting when considering the development of our transportation facilities. Every once in a while this relic of transportation is brought to light in a modern way, and this was strikingly illustrated in a recent adap- tation of a Republic motor truck oper- ated by the Tungsten Comet Mining company of Panaca, Nev. This com pany is situated 1T miles from the nearest railroad and this condition brought about the need of solving the company's daily transportation re-. quirements, both as to passenger and freight.
 Realizing that it was nor practical to install number Of vehicles which would necessarily be idle a part of the time, the Tungsten Comet Mining company installed 9 two-ton Republic truck with a type of body to meet their local conditions. A passenger automo- bile tonneau seat was furnished for the driver and for his protection a roadster top was attached Over the body of the truck a canvas top was built along lines adapted from the old fashioned prairie schooner that traversed the western plains 50 years ago. This unique vehicle handles all of the com pany.s travel between town and mine, including passengers. hauling of ex- press shipments, high grades concen- trates, etc.

OVERSPEEDING

Overspeeding is not only dangerous 10 others, but like overlooking, is a factor which greatly lessens the normal life of your truck. Most trucks are equipped with governors to prevent ex- cessive driving speeds. It is just as essential to keep down the speed in coasting-
 A heavy truck in motion represents a tremendous amount of energy whose destructiveness increases at a much greater ratio than the increase in speed. It therefore requires much more effort to control and it can do untolI damage should it get beyond the drivers con trol.
 Excessive speed causes excessive wear. The driving shafts are designed to run at certain speeds below their critical or bending peeds. Whipping of

drive shafts does not tend to increase gradually but is almost instantaneous in it's action once the critical speed is reached. Much damage not only to itself but to surrounding parts may be the result of a shaft whipping out of it's proper position. The engine flywheel and clutch parts may also be damaged beyond repair should they run at an excessive speed.
 Truck tires, particularly the usual solid type. are rapidly destroyed by abnormal speeds. It is here that the cost of over speeding is most quickly felt by the truck owner.
 In fairness to yourself and to other users of the highways do not tamper with the governor on your truck and do not permit iof driving beyond a rational speed if your truck is not so equipDed

 About this time there were numerous concerns who realized the advantages of quick delivery and in 1907 the St. Louis Post-Dispatch surprised that city by q purchase of twelve covered deliv- cry trucks, which event was featured considerably at the time.
 How well the Gramm- Bernstein com pany has kept in the lead in their line is evidenced by the fact that they were the first to supply a truck that was equipped with all accessories necessary
