CAR VS.. WALKER.


George Stokes, veteran pedestrian,
failed to break the walking record of
twenty-one hours and fifty-six min
utes from Milwaukee to Chicago, a dis
lance of approximately 100 miles, now
held by Henry Schmen. Stokes made
the attempt to break the record on Fri
day Aug, 8, expecting to complete the
walk on August 9, which was his
sixty ninth birthday.
The start was made at D. M
August s, and exactly twenty four
hours later Stokes had covered 500
miles at an average speed of 3.3 miles
per hour, being forced to give up at
this distance on account of an acute at
tack of Indigestion. He finished the
trip to Chicago in an automobile.
Stokes attempt to walk from Mil
waukee to Chicago was really con-
test between him as a long distance
walker, and an automobile locked in
high gear which was to keep up with,
but not pass the walker The car,
which was a new 1925 Buick Standard
Six, performed the difficult task of rum
ming in. high gear all the way at the
average speed of 3.3 per hour. After
Stokes dropped out, the car continued
on it's way, arriving at Logan Square,
Chicago, with an average speed of four
miles per hour for the entire distance.
Harry Dole, automobile editor of the
Wisconsin News, locked the car in high
gear and mailed the key to Rockwell
Stephens, automobile editor of the
n ifs1c Nt-l,0 n,1-1 4
the car at the end of the trip.
George Stokes performed a wonder
full feat in walking eighty miles in
twentyfour hours at the age of sixty
nine years, and the Buick car per-
formed an equally remarkable feat in
covering 100 miles at an average of
four miles an hour, and at times as
low as two miles an hour. Wonder how
many men at any age can walk eighty
miles in twenty four hours.-Advt

You'll Have to Ask Bert

The following is clipped from the
Maine Central Magazine and pub
lished without verifcation. You'll
have to ask Bert about it.
To see dog riding in an automobile
is not uncommon. Less frequent but
by no means unknown, is the sight of
an automobile being drawn by a horse.
But it remained for Bert Foster, agent
at Ellsworth Falls, to think up some
thing decidedly original in this line.
Out in his Rolls Royce one day, he saw
a tired, Respondent horse YEARLY plod-
ding homeWard. and in the kindness of
his heart picked him up on the run
ming board and gave him ride.
