REPORTS from authoritative
sources in the motor truck industry
indicate that motor truck manu-
facturers are not only doing lar
ger business than at any time since
the war, but that the industry, as
whole. has attained volume
never before equalled
The annual expenditure in this
country this year for motor trucks
and commercial cars will exceed a
billion dollars. This total includes
an expenditure of $3.50, 100000 for
the $50, 600 trucks of all sizes that
are being manufactured this year
and an investment of $3.50, 900 900
for the maintenance and upkeep of

says the June 18th issue OF the
Commercial Car Journal, "the av-

RECORD BREAKING
RUN BY CHEVROLET
IN SOUTH AFRICA

Even in the out -of-the-way
corners of the world, in the case
OF emergency, the automobile, usu-
ally furnishes the quickest travel.
Word has just been received at
the Chevrolet Motor Car company
from South Africa of record
breaking run by Chevrolet Motor
car.
The car was used to deliver mail
and the senders predicted that the
run could be made in less time over
the route than the fastest mail
service train.
The route was from Cape Town
to Pretoria. a distance Of 1000
miles. The Chevrolet car made the
run in AZ hours and 50 minutes,
This record smashed the record
OF the mail train by three hours
and IS minutes.
This run has created q scnsa-
ton in South Africa, both because
OF the fact that the roads are not
so good as in the United States
and Europe generally. ana because
record runs are seldom made there.
Though the Chevrolet car made
an average speed OF Approximately
"a miles an hour for more than AZ
hours, it was in perfect running
order at the conclusion of the long
grind-another proof of TIC STAN
ina and speed and general utility
of the well-built automobile.

A FEW THOUGHTS
ABOUT YOUR BATTERY

Asking how many months a bat
terry will last is like asking how
many months a pair of shoes VIII
last. The maker, or his agent can
only answer that it is wear, tear
and care" that count. but at the
same time he will lay special stress
on the care Manufacturers of
the Willard storage battery have
figured as matter of fact, that
there are just four things that de-
termine the life Of a battery These
are use, time. care and the quality
of the battery itself.
If a person makes unusual de-
mands upon battery he will prob
ably reduce its life by a few
months, but with all other things
equal he will have attained a sat
isfactory mileage. Consequently
cost per mile in such a case is as
fair a basis for comparison as cost
per month.
What does time do to your bat
terry? Going back to the shoe ar
gument, if you bought a new pair,
wore them a couple of weeks and
then left them off, exposed to ev-
cry condition for length Of time,
they would deteriorate. In fact,
you would discover that they had
been wearing themselves out. It's
the same with a battery.
Care comes next. The battery
Is something not only to use, but
to use up. You provide your car
with electricity for starting, light
ing and ignition by using up the
battery. The battery is not an in
eXhaustible supply of electricity,
but it is boxful of electricity maxi
ing ingredients and these ingredi-
ents must be restored as used or
the supply will give out. The best
protection is to refill the cells with
water, recharge the battery regu-
larry, preferable at a service sta
ton, and make tests of the battery
every two weeks. Such care will
guard against sudden and per-
haps costly breakdown.

THE COMMERCIAL CAR AND TRUCK INDUSTRY
WILL AMOUNT TO BILLION DOLLARS THIS YEAR

oil are the principal items to be
considered under the head Of OPP
Grating supplies.
Between 1,100, 100000 gallons
and 1.20O, 100000 gallons of gaso-
line are annually used for motor
truck operation. At an average of
% cents per gallon, the gasoline
bill will total 100000.
Nearly 100000 tires will be
required this year for commercial
cars. These will cost approximate
ly $175, 100000.
About 100000 gallons Of lu-
bricating oil at so cents per gallon
will bring the bill for commercial
car fabrication to $S7, 900, 900.
Sales on truck equipment will
consist principally of special bod
les, cranks, hoists, winches, cush-
ion wheels, etc. About 100000
special Jobs at an average of $500
apiece will be required this year.
Other truck equipment, costing
about s15,000,000, will bring this
total of equipment sales up to ap-
proximately S75,000,000.
Replacement parts constitute an
increasingly important item of sales
in the commercial car field. Sales
of such parts in 1922 will total
100000
Labor for service and repairs
is figured at about s14O per truck
per year, which brings the total
for over 100000 trucks TO about
$3.50, 100000.
1T will be seen from the above
figures, therefore, that total sales
in all branches of the commercial
car industry will be we'll in ex.
cess of on~ billion dollars for the
current calendar year"

COUNTING ON THE
LIFE OF TIRES is
A HARD PROBLEM

How far should an automobile
tire run? Tire men today are en-
phasizing the fact that a standard
tire of certain make is built to
perform definite amount of work
under normal conditions. Where
the tire is abused it simply fails
faster and gives less service thar
it would give under normal use.
Some tires accomplish their Work
in running 10000 miles, others do
the same amount of work in 5000
miles, and others in $1,000 miles.
Road, load and operating condi-
tions account for the difference
in mileage.
A 80 X 4 tire which has carried
an average of 500 pounds or 4 Of
a ton throughout its life over
1900 miles has delivered $500
ton-miles of work. Another tire
which has carried an average of
420 pounds or ~ of a ton through.
out its life of 90 miles will have
delivered the same amount of work.
That is, .21 ton times $1,000 miles
or $500 ton-miles. A third t.r=
has carried an average load Of
ii-VV PodIuS VI % VI a. lOll lillOuSHr
out its life of 5000 miles will hay,
and has delivered only 2,40O ton
miles Of work or 25 per cent less
work than the other tires.
In the last case the tire has
failed % per cent faster, cue 10
overload. In the last example die
tire was worn out before it hJ ]
performed the $500 ton-miles OF
work as the other tires had done
because its strength was over
taxed.
Now the list price of 81 "A tire
which is used at Akron, Onio, az
ia basis, is $32.40; $32.40 divided
into 5000 ton-miles gives s1.00 per
ton mile cost. Whereas $3.50 di-
vided into 2.400 ton-mile5 gives
Si.93 f-3 per ton-mile cost Thus
the third tire has actually cost
SO 1-3 per cent more for the work
done than the first two. The
third mans expenses are entirely
out of proportion to those of the
other tive.
| In cold cash this would mean =
saving of $1,000 on each tire for
each $500 ton-miles run.

ANNUAL MOTORCYCLE
GYPSY TOUR, JUNE 1918

The annual Gypsy tour dates for
this season are June 1918.
This is the "Annual Good Time
for all motorcycle riders and is A
national event each year. The
Gypsv tours are promoted by the
Motorcycle and Allied Trades as
ISOLATION, having membership Of
more than 10000 riders and deal
ers throughout the country.
Motorcycle clubs stage these
tours and in California alone 20
Gypsy tours from towns and cities
in that state will center at Pismo
Beach for a three-day outing anC
a general good time, with all sorts
of outdoor sports.
This is only one example of what
will happen all over the country
and motorcycle riders are looking
forward to GYPSY tour dates with
great interest. It Is freely pre-
dicted that more Gypsy tours will
be enjoyed this year than ever be-
fore. and thousands of motorcycle
riders will enjoy pleasant outing
AFT the same time demonstrating to
the public at large that the motor
cycle is a safe, sane and comfort
able means of transportation.

THE BUYING POWER
AMONG THE FOREIGN
COUNTRIES GOOD

Steady Improvement in the for
eign demand for motor cars is re-
ported by j. D. Mooney of New
York city, general manager OF GEN
eral Motors Export company
In commenting on the notable
gain in buying power among the
countries of western Europe, Mr..
Mooney said 1t undoubtedly re-
Elected a change for the better in
the morale of the people.
I'VE find the self-reliant and
resourceful nationalities returning
to more wholesome outlook and
constantly improving their econcm-
ic condition." said Mr.. Mooney.
1.-THE results lead me to believe that
as rule economic conditions ad-
Just themselves TO the temper and
purpose of the people as a whole.
In my opinion, it was largely the
state of public morale which stop
ped the great war. When the peo-
pie of Russia, for example, were
surfeited with war, the war was
over so far as that country was
concerned and when the people
OF the central empires became
thoroughly disheartened the whole
struggle came rapidly to an end.
To-day we see Russia in eco
nomic collapse because of the shat
tered morale of the population.
IAN entirely different train of
events has created somewhat SINH
lar conditions in Mexico. Here is
a country which in natural re-
sources is perhaps favored above
all others on the globe. With the
most fertile farming, grazing and
fruit lands, with rubber in abund-
dance, with huge deposits OF all
basic metals used in the mechani-
cal arts, with vast oil fields and
great forests OF hardwood lumber,
Mexico is down because of the low
morale of the great mass OF her
people. But even Mexico shows
signs OF coming back.
I'm general, our late reports in
dictate improved buying demand
from these countries which in the
past have been our best customers.
The British Isles already have alb
sorbed large shipments OF cars
Australia, peopled by enterprising
and courageous men, is another
bright spot on the map OF foreign
trade.
THE countries comprising our
Paris zone, which includes France
Spain, Belgium and Scandinavia
are now the most active on oul
foreign list, as shown by actua
orders for cars and trucks.
Brazil and neighboring coun
tries, in response to an improved
world demand for their products
are just turning the corner ant
substantial shipments of automo
tive products are now being ar
ranged in anticipation of an earl,

ditions in South America.

THE OLDS PLAYS
PART IN GETTING
CHILDREN TO SCHOOL

Nothing illustrates the passing
of the isolated sections Of tlis
country better than some figures
recently presented at meeting Of
the Chamber of Commerce of the
state of New York. The district
school house used to be the educa-
tional and social center of agri-
cultural communities; it and the
church were formerly the only pub
lie places at which gatherings
could be held.
''The automobile has played its
part in causing the little red school
house to lose its importance" says
Guy II. Peasley sales manager of
the Odds Motor works. When the
Chamber of Commerce of New
York met recently, Chancellor Lord
gave the members some statistics
on attendance at the single-room
schools Of the state. In Is schools,
the average attendance was one;
in 1877 schools, the average attend
ance was three; in 397 schools the
average attendance was five. and
in 1000 schools, the average at
tendance was 10 or less.
"The one-teacher school is adj
mittedly unsatisfactory, particular
" where the teacher, owing TO low
pay and the high cost OF living,
may not be of much ability. There
are still many capable and Won
derful men and women in this
work, but the tendency of the times
is away from one-room school
houses and one-teacher instruction.
Hundreds of Oldsmobile Econ
omy' trucks with omnibus bodies
are in use all over the country,
gathering pupils from the houses,
taking them to school and return
ing them to their homes. These
buses are making trips in a 10 to
Is mile radius. taking children to
modern, graded schools, well built.
