Restrictions Increase Costs
That the elimination OF the heavy
truck will not in any degree prevent
the wearing out OF our roads, can be
seen by brief consideration OF these
essential facts:
/. The freight tonnage to be carried
over the roads will not be decreased.
. 1t will result either in an increase
of the number OF trucks to move tho
tonnage. or in the general overload
ing OF the small truck.
J. II a sufficient number OF smaller
trucks be used this will impose an ad-
dltional burden on the roads OF at
least Is per cent. owing to the add
tional weight OF. say two small trucks
as compared with one heavy truck.

and the ratio OF the speed of the truck
to the load carried will be too great.
Both those factors make for serious
road damage
5. Another bad result from over
loading f. the increased danger Of ac-
cidents, thru inability to control n
truck carrying a load heavier than II
was designed to bear. A large per
ccntace OF motor truck accidents arc
believed to he due to the dangerous
practice OF overlooking.
The hauling OF the tonnage that must
be carried over our roads by suffi-
cient number OF small trucks In many
cases would result in serious traffic
congestion rendering IT necessary tc
construct wider roads. This would in
volve the expenditure of additiona'
millions of dollars for road construc-

RECIPE TO CLEAR
A PIMPLY SKIN
Pimples are Impurities Seeking an
Outlet Through Skin
Pores.

P1mples. sores and boils usually re-
suit from toxins, poisons and impuri-
ties which are generated in the bowels
and then absorbed into the blood thru
tho very ducts which should absorb
only nourishment to sustain the body.
1t is the function of the kidneys TO
filter impurities from the blood and
cast them out in the form OF urine.
but in many instances the bowels cro-
ate more toxins and impurities than
the kidneys can eliminate. then tho
blood uses the skin pores as the next
best means of getting rid of these i'm
puritics which often break out all over
the skin in the form of pimplcs
Tho surest way to clear tho skin OF
these eruptions. says n noted author
ity. is to get from any pharmacy about
four ounces of Jhd Salts and take u
tablespoonful in glass OF hot water
each morning before breakfast for one
week. This will prevent the formation
of toxins in the bowels. 1t also stimu-
lates tho kidneys to normal activity.
thus coaxing them to filter the blood OF
impurities and clearing tho skin of
pimplcs.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless
and is made from the acid OF grapes
and lemon Juice, combined with llthia.
Here you have "A pleasant. effervescent
drink which usually makes pimples dis
appear; cleanses the blood and is cx-
ccllcnt for the kidneys as well.

GIRL CHAUFFERS
YET BUSY IN
FIELDS OF FRANCE

Since the armistice, the American
committee for devastated France has
established seven centers for relief
work and social service in the north
OF France. In each there are groups
OF from ten to fifteen American and
English girls who are carrying medical
care into the field wounded and sick
from village to hospital. and supplies
OF food. clothing, livestock and other
neceSsaries to the dugouts and nuts OF
two hundred villages and hamlets.
Every chauffeur is responsible for the
upkeep of her own car She is expect
ed to make minor repairs herself. or
cours the camionettes are Fords, and
each one has a temperament. perhaps
a temper, of its own. They acquire
names according to their dispositions,
and are known and beloved or scorned
by these designations thruout the COM
mittee. .but even the Corpse" is Loyalty
defended by its driver. and Henry
has n charm of his own while the
Tank" and TITLES Nightmare" each
brings its memory of valiant service.
They are liable to drive many miles
day only to return at night and find
that there is child hurt by 4 live
grenade, who must be transported that
night to the hospital at scissors or at
Blerancourt. Meeting emergencies
with courage and devotion has been the
rule among the overseas chauffeurs.
Then, too, the roads are often muddy,
and tires choose to blow out right on
the sides of the slipperiest hills and
ones working uniform is never clean.
and the motor shivers and dies in
crisis. Yet ask a chauffeur in France
II she would trade her job for any
other and see what she says. No other
branch of service brings girl into
such close relationship with the pea
SAINT folk of France, whom to know is
to love and admire. When a camion-
ette stops in the ruined street OF

literally up out OF the ground, to crowd
about the car with smiling faces, eager

SPEED and Impact.
| Heavier trucks run slower and con-
sequently do less damage to the road
than the lighter trucks OF higher speed.
According to A. T. Goldbeck, In
general. the impact seems to Increase
with the velocity" This II the most
conservative result Of any test made.
Some authorities 60 SO far rs to say
that the impact increases as the square
of the speed. It is not to be disput-
cd that a 7M-ton chain-driven truck
with its light unspruns weight running
at 10 or II miles per hour delivers less
impact than 4 5-ton enclosed drive
truck with its greater unsprung weight
running at IS miles per hour. 30 far
the tests seem to show that increase in
speed has moro damaging effect on
roads than increase In weight.

unsprunE Weight and Impact
We have seen that the ideal condi-
tion of having no inspiring weight
means that the impact is practically
no greater than the static load. Now
we come to the nearest approach to
this condition in the heavy trucks.
We can divide commercial trucks In
two classes: chain-driven and shaft
driven. To apply these classes to the
question of road damage we will call
the chain driven truck the light-un.
sprung-weight truck, and the enclosed
drive. the heavy-unsprung-we
truck. This is true because in the
chain-driven trucks the driving mech
anism Is fastened to the frame above
the springs and in the enclosed drive
truck 1t is mounted in or on the axle
under the springs. Tho unspruns
weight on q chain n-driven truck is
little more than half the inspiring
weight on a shaft drive.
Mr.. C}oldbcck says. 1T is possible to
have vastly different impact pressure
exerted on the roads by two trucks.
both having the same gross weight:
but having different distribution OF
their sprung and inspiring weights
and when questions OF road desiSn
are to be considered the actual wheel
pressure on the road Is the aIl-import-
ant thing rather than gross load OF
the truck"
The Bureau Of Public Roads has
made thousands OF tests OF every ca
pacity OF truck and load, and tho re-
suits made public show clearly the
vital Importance OF inspiring weight
A typical example is worm driven
s-tonner with a 5-ton load. whose
loft rear wheel under load weighed
1850 pounds. The unsprung portion OF
this weight was l.s37 pounds. The I'M
pact delivered by this wheel running
Is miles per hour and falling thru a
space OF two inches was 9.co0s pounds.
a 5L-ton Mack chain-driven truck
with n load Of 5.s5 tons running Mt a
speed of Is miles per hour whose left
rear wheel under this load weighed
5000 pounds, with an unsprung weight
