What is
DetOnatiOn!

Defamation is a powerful
explosion, always accom-
panied by a sharp, quick
report. 1t tears, jerks,
pounds and knocks, if not
properly controlled.
Whether in a cannon or
in an automobile engine,
detonation causes a rend-
ing, rapid frictional wear.
It is the most destructive
force known to explosive

more than AZ cents per mile Capt.

tfat the cost per bus mile is high, be-
cause the financial losses of the com
pany forged it to reduce the mileage.
