Similarly in the Paris subway after

Investigators discovered $4,000.

SAFE DRIVERS MEDAL

1t is not the fastest" driver that
is most efficient and produces the
best results in the operation of
trucks. If man has an accident
while in a hurry to complete his de-
liveries he in great many instances
ties up our truck entirely and hind
ers rather than helps the efficient
handling of our products.
The Sun Oil Company, manufac-
turers of Blue Sunoco Motor Oil, in
cooperation with the Ocean Accident
& Guarantee Corporation, Ltd, has
sponsored the awarding of the safe
Drivers Medal" subject to the fol-
lowing requirements:
1. Each man must sign an enroll
ment card bearing the pledge II will
always drive carefully and in man
ner which will not endanger life or
property"
2. He must drive without accident
for one year.
3. He must be continuously in our
employ during that period.
A. With a clear record at the end
of the IL months period, he will be
awarded the "Safe Drivers Medal"

KNOW OHIO

Ohioans who start out this week to
"See Ohio First" at the behest of
the Know Ohio League, will have 3d.
600 miles of improved road over
which to guide their motors, and may
have the knowledge, if they care to
know, that their state is second in the
United States in miles of surfaced
road
Director G. F. Schlesinger, of the
Ohio department of highways, in fur
therance of the idea of making Ohio
known to itself, has published a free
may of state roads which may be OBJ
tanned from the department of high
ways, as well as an "Ohio Highway
Guide" which contains facts for mo-
torists and which is also free. Be-
yond this he is making a plea, not
only for this week but for all the
touring season, for care in driving,
and for reporting to the state depart
ment of highways any useful infor-
nation.
an order that Know Ohio Week
may benefit the department of high
ways in it's work of serving the pub
lie, as well as the hundreds of thou
sands who will tour that week." said
Mr.. Schlesinger, 1--WE would like to
have motorists report any shortcom-
ing of the highways, or any ideas for
further Improvement. Our depart
ment is here to give the state bet
ter roads, and we are always eager
to get suggestions"
The state highway department was
created in 1904, when it started with
an appropriation of $4,000. In 1926
it took first place in the nation IN
number of miles surfaced during a
single year with total of 2,41l.2
miles. In 1922 it appropriated money
for the maintenance of 4300 miles of
road, and in 1923 will appropriate
money to care for 10000 miles, which
shows Just how fast state road i'm
provement is travelling in Ohio.
The total mileage of roads in Ohio
is $4,000, which includes everything.
The state system of surfaced roads
now Includes about 10000 miles. The
rest are roads of softer surface kept
up by the counties, the federal gov
ernment, municipalities and private
interest. Each one of the roads IN
cluded in the total will carry the mo-
torist past one or more of Qhio's $50
beauty spots and points of interest IN
which the Know Ohio League is try
ing to interest the public.
Taking two main state roads for
example: The National road out of
Wheeling westward passes scenes OF
Indian battles at Bridgeport; Mus
kingum College, New Concord; "Y"
bridge at GAINESVILLE, one of two such
bridges in the world; Flint ridge, Gra-
tiot, one of the greatest supplies OF
arrow flints which the Indians had;
passes close to Buckeye lake; passes
any number of state points OF inter
est at Columbus; passes Wittenberg
College, Springfield; birthplace Of Te-
cumseh, and scene of the battle OF
Piqua.
The Scioto trail, leaving Ports
mouth and coming northward, passes
