Mount Gretna, Pa., July S. Tho methods
Used by tho various rnllronds In transport
Inn troops from here to CI Pano today were
declared to lie "sheer brutality and a crime
ngalnst civilization,"
There will bo no Pullmans for tho mem
bers of the troop1), officers excepted. Tho
heads hope nt least, though, to have a. Beat
for each man, (Instead of plllnR thrco In a
neat, as was the case with tho Infantry.
Tho wholo regiment of cavalry, IncltidlnR
tho lRt and 2d City Troops, and Troops A
nnd O, from Philadelphia, rlre scheduled to
leao for Ct Paso tomorrow. Tho first field
artillery leacs today, while the thrco sec
tions bonrliif? tho 18th HcBlmcnt, Infantry,
from Pittsburgh, got away In record tlmo
last night.
Dr. Swlthln Chandler, 1915 Spruco street,
PhlJAdclphla, of Temple University, ban been
appointed assistant surgeon of tho First
Artillery to tako tho place of IJr. Edward
r,yon, of Wllllamsport, who suffered a col
1'apso hero yesterday as tho result of over
work in tlo field hospital. Doctor unnnuicr
leaves with tho artillery today. Ho former
ly was captain of Company K, 2d Infantry,
N. G P., and was In tho Jleuicai iioserve
corps when tho call to tho colors was
issued
Doclor I,yon's collapse came after moTO
than 10 days strenuous work In conduct
ing physical examinations here. Ho worked
at a terrific pace under high tension,
lloro than 2200 men were exnmlncd In ono
day last week.
Yesterday his mind Is thought to have
been temporarily unbalanced. Ho was
taken to Wllllamsport In an automoblto
under tho caro of physicians. Officers hero
expressed the belief that a few days of rest
would put him on his feet.
Doctor Iiyon may bavo been affected by
tho hot sun, officers mild.
More recruits nro sought In Philadelphia.
Colonel Thomas Dlddlo Ellis, of tho 6th
Ttcglmont, has Instructed Captain WeBley
It. Hoe to opon recruiting headquarters to
day at 1210 I,ocust street and report to
camp with recruits not later thnn tomorrow.
Tho regiment, which Is scheduled to leave
Friday, has quite a largo number of men,
Colonel Cllls said, but ho hopes to bring It
up to near Its maximum strength. Orders
also were Issued to havo recruits report to
Colonel J, Warner Hutchinson, Walnut
Street near 13th.
Captain McFadden's denunciation of tho
"sardlnlng" -of the enlisted men In coach
loads on their long trip southward was
made whtlo discussing details of the 1st
City Troop's departure.
Mount Gretna Chronicle
"Bud" Davis, of Garfield, Pa., Is a mem
ber of Company F, of tho 18th. Ho's no
anxious as tho rest of them to get to
Mexico, or anywhoro olso as far as that
Is concerned, but tho question that puzzles
him la not so much when ho will go as
how.
"Dud's" buddies say ho Is out of place
In tho 18th, or out of place even In tho
army as far as that Is concerned, nnd ho
has been deeply troubled.
It's not that tho lad Is not popular. Ho
has hosts of friends, a stout heart, and Is
ns willing to fight at tho drop of tho hat
as tho next one. Yet there's something
about him different from tho other lads
encamped here. "Bud"'hnd hlB out-of-place-ness"
driven homo to him by a corporal
only yesterday.
"I3ud" had saluted when tho "non-com"
-eavo him a piece of his mind. "Von don't
belong hero," tho corp said; "In fact, you
don't belong In tho nrmy, nnyway. Why
don't you Join tho navy If you are so
anxious to servo your country?"
"Why should I Join tho navy,1' please tell
mo?" "Bud" Inquired respectfully.
"Why you would bo n big asset to tho
navy, or even to tho Congress of 'tho
United States," ho was told. "You wear
battleships on both feet."
True, "Bud's" shoes pass tho 11 mark,
and his comrades who have had "words"
with him say they nre battleships of the
dreadnought class. When "Bud" awakens
In tho morning he often finds his feet still
asleep.
And now comes the ROADAPLANE !
The APPERSON-ROADAPLANE is the newest
self-propelled sensation.
It equals the exhilaration enjoyed by travel in
tho sky.
It smooths out all roads, banishes for all time
all mechanical troubles, nnd shatters to a hundred
fragments all former motor car limitations.
To rido in this new marvel gives you the buoy
ancy of air support and when at the wheel you
unconsciously feel tho satisfaction of being tha
master of seventy-mile-a-minute wings.
You get all the aeroplane thrills and sense of lim
itless freedom on tafe Mother Earth.
Man, during all his time on earth, has never
experienced the riding sensations equal to the
Roadaplane.
Here is an absolutely frlctionless car the
Roadaplane fairly floats along the road it is so
freo of all friction.
Here Is a piece of mechanism so perfectly attuned
that you are unconscious of any mechanical effort
whatever. It is in this important respect that the
RoadarJlane rivals air craft.
Hero is a motor that challenges the most acute
car it is so silent, so noiseless, so free of the
slightest vibration truly the work of mastermen.
Here is a car so exact in weight, so carefully
balanced, that it isjiot a matter of mere pounds
but ounce. The Roadaplane is so exacting in
proportions that it is necessary to reduce its weight

knot half an Inch high, Hoffman never

Ho's 6 feet 4 Inches tall, tho minimum
height.
MEDICAL CORPS
Roy Wilson knows every Inch of tho
territory whero the boys nro going. He
uoed to bo In tljo medical corps at Fort
Sam Houston.

membors wero lined up on the ground, head
to feet. Their holghts aro: Corporal
James Pruslck, 6 foot; Chester Miller, Ed
Rollly and Carl Rlchter, 6 feet 1 Inch ench,

Sergeant John F. Murray and Quarter
master Sergeant Charles F. Jordan, all for
merly of Company C.
Tho raco for girls' names and addresses
Is being led by B. J. Gllllnguim with 12.
This makes him the leading 'lady-killer"

They can't keep John Lydon. a Glensldo
Club boy, from singing as tho wheels hum
along toward Mexico.
The "dreadnought" squad of six-footers,
under Corporal Ed. Browning, Is proud be
causo It has all tho "heavy" work to do
It's also tired.
German efficiency has been Introduced
to pounds and ounces to fit it to the new standard
required.
Hero is a car so miserly in the use of gasoline
that mileage records surpass all previous per
formances. Here is a car so light on Us feet that tire-llfo
is prolonged to a time heretofore thought impossible.
Truly, the Apperson Roadaplane creates a new
style of horseless travel.
And, it is not only because of a new mechanical
standard that the Roadaplane now is separated
from all typos of automobiles.,
It is equally advanced in drawing-room ap
pointments. Downy cushions give each passenger a feeling of
complete relaxation and nerve repose. Fatigue 'a
unknown here. The long hammock-like springe
gently absorb all road shocks. Patented cushion
springs make riding enjoyable for hours and hours.
Tho Roadaplane represents the last word in body
construction and is most complete in its accessory
equipment and in the adoption of every comfort
and labor-saving device imaginable.
The Roadaplane Is made In six and eight-cylinder
models. Seven-passenger and the famous four-passenger
Chummy roadster body being mounted on
both chassis. Tho eight-cylinder model (either
touring car or four-passenger roadster) Is $2000.
The six-cylinder model (either touring car or four
passenger roadster') is $1760. All prices i. o. b.

EX-MAYOR WEAVER'S SON CARES
FOR TROOPER, A MASCOT KITTEN
That Makes Him Most Popular Man in Cavalry Troop A.
Officers Show They Like an
Occasional Joke
By FRANKLIN R. G. FOX
Vventno Lcdoer Staff Correspondent
lltlADQUAItTEns, Camp Brumbaugh, Mt.
Gretna. July 5.
Some of tho best soldiers are never too
busy to tako a Joke. Cnptaln John M.
Clnrlt, of Company P. of Pittsburgh, Is said
by his men to bo ono ot the best ofllcern In
the regiment. One thing suro nnd that Is
he's popular. He's strict when the thno
comes, but ho takes a Joke quickly and
easily.
Tho captain was seated In his tent
when Prlnto W. H Henry, of Knoxvllle,
among tho piles of officers' luggage That
Is tho Btory lie told nnd there Is no reason
to doubt him, but there are thoso who
alleged that ho quotpd the Immortal docu
ment from memory and that tho Imposing
manuscript that he rustled was a dummy
At nny rate, tho band played tho national
anthem and nil wns well.
Tho Fourth of July camo at nn opportune
tlmo for tho traol-vorn warriors, who, by
nil tokens, should have been "on edgo" to
day, but not they The stimulus of tho
patriotic day of days and the nlmoit em
harassing hospltnllty that has been forced
upon them by tho cheering South has raised
their spirits to 0 0 ',4 , 100 being tho maxi
mum or delirious bliss
Nothing Is too good for these sons of
Pennsylvania. In tho Inst 24 hours they
havo been In good bands the hands of
Tennesseo nnd Texas mothers nnd daugh
ters, cnger, Insistent to servo them. The
mothers nnd daughters of Arkansas would
kivo dono the s.imo, but that maligned
State was traversed In tho darkness, In a
train, by tho way, that bore no relationship
by blood or mairlngc to tho historic Blow
train.
Small wonder that tho rigors of travel
ing without lights nnd with scant water for
two dnys and nights have been forgotten,
but not forgiven, If you please The report
of Colonel Turner over tho shnmeful ac
commodations afforded Pennsylvania's
troops Is going right strnlght to tho War
Department, but no ono Is talking nboui
It now. The wator tanks nre full and
slopping over, tho gas tanks nro crammed
full of "Plntsch" gas. And mgro than that
and on top of tho pouches and tomatoes tho
railroad distributed thrco plcturo postal
cards to each man today through C. J,
Lake, assistant superintendent, nnd II II.
Sutton, district passenger agent.
N "New Models"
in Mid -Season
THE Chandler Type 17 was a perfected car January 1st. It had back of
it three years of refinement, three years of making good. There is no
reason to change it or modify it or call it by some new name in mid-season.
Chandler Values are Permanent
The Chandler Type 17 thousands of them on the road today from coast
to coast and giving the most satisfactory service is distinctively the med
ium priced car of the year.
It's the car of a perfected motor, and the most beautiful body design.
It is the car of greatest all around value and no marked up price. There is
ample excuse for an advance in price, but it would not add to the value to
increase the price.
We could not give more in this great car just by asking you to pay more.
