Only tourists who have traveled the Lincoln Highway in Pennsyl vania from Pittsburgh to Cham bersburg can fully appreciate what this performance really means. They know that it is nearly all up or down the mountains with but few stretches of straightaway for'any considerable distance. They know that no ordinary car will mount the abrupt and long ascents without change of gear. jAsxutttar FrrraBsmu.A They know that no ordinary brakes will meet the emergencies and no ordinary car hold the sharp and winding curves at the pace at which the Lincoln had to travel. Like the recent record from Lo Angeles to Bishop, 285 miles thru tho mountains of California, when the Lincoln cut train time in less than half and beat a former motor car record by 2 hours and 57 minutes, this new achievement is but another demonstration of the Lincoln's superior roading capabilities.
