1t is understood that he merely gives up
his seat, and is not refunded any part of
the investment value OF the equipment.
And when a member does drop out
which is seldom. there is waiting list
ready to take the vacant seat. One reason
being that the cars always run, and there
is no need to worry about getting to work
and on time.
Only three of the original members still
ride with the pool. Besides Cooley and
Champerlln, Miss Nancy Bradfield of Lees
burg is the only other original member.
She started committing with Mr.. Chamber
lin back In 1885, and Is the pool treasurer.
She must collect the monthly fees, pay
insurance and gasoline bills and keep up
the payments on the two automobiles
And Miss Bradtield learned early that
you can't operate car pool without money.
She is not timid about making the members
pay up. She sees that they don't have
chance to forget.
Mr. Champerlin sees no reason why the
cooperative arrangement won't continue
indefinitely.

My father helped. We would run hard
at a drift, and my father, who followed in
another car, would pull US back out. Then
we would hit it again.
Lots of mornings We would break
through to the main highway to find the
milk truck waiting for us. The truck driver
would stand by until we had opened the
road"
The present cooperative car pool is
result of wartime necessity Until the be-
ginning of World War II, Mr.. Chamberlin
used his own car But when gasoline
rationing began he thought some kind of
cooperative arrangement would stand
better chance of getting sufficient coupons.
The first comparatively owned car,
light secondhand job, was purchased
jointly by Mr.. Chamberlin and Thomas
Cooley. a Washington attorney who had
been riding with him. Four other riders
contributed to the purchase of the car,
and while it was registered as owned by
MeSsrS. Cooley and Chamberlin, it actu-
ally was the property of the pool. And the
cooperative pool has worked so well since
it began in 1912 that second car was
added two years. ago. The pool now con-
