ADMISSION, k TO \LL SATURDAY EVENING, HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH MAY 8, 1915 Exposition Head Now Uses Cadillac Eight With the recent delivery of a Cadll- | lac Eight to President C. C. Moore, ot 1 the Panama-Pai-iflc Exposition at San Francisco, this- car becomes more than , ever the exposition car. President < Moore's car is a standard Cadillac ' limousine, bearing on the panel between I the doors the official seal of the expo sition. Before President Moore's limousine | went into use. the Cadillac occupied a i position of prominence at the exposl- j tion. The California fair commission ers have one, and two Cadillac ambu- ! lances are in use inside the ground*. There is also an exhibit of the complete Cadillac line in the Transportation Building. This incuudes a cut-open chassis which has been pronounced the most beautlfultv finished and the most completely exposed specimen of its kind ever shipped to the coast. This car plays a large part in the official life of the San Diego Exposi- j tion also. There it is the official car, 1 President Davidson has a limousine and two tourlntr cars are in the ser vice of other officials. At San Diego. | on state occasions, it is always the , Cadillac Eight that carries distinguish- I ed visitors back and forth: and now that the San Francisco Fair has a car I of the same make, the same probably will be the case there. MOTORCYCLE NOTF.S Motorcyclists of San Francisco plan to charter a boat to take them to Sac ramento to attend the nationalcconve- t tion of the F. A. M. in July. A bunch of 'Frisco riders recently i made a ftfty-six-mile spin to Alum ! Rock, where they enjoyed a swim in the sulphur pool. "So long as the motorcycle world Is ! glad to have me. I shall deem it a ; privilege to live tn it." said E. G. Baker, when asked if he contemplated giving ! up the two-wheeler. A play for the benefit of the Summer i Mission fund will be given by the mem- j bers of the Indianapolis Motorcycle Club, on May SO and June 1. The 100-mile motorcycle champion ship of New South Wales, was won by W. Jack on an American-built motor cycle. AMUSEMENTS ' CiiKiintlr Dual Attraction FH V\Cl<* X.

Detroit RIVERSIDE AUTO CO. BELL PHOJfE S73IR REAR 1417 WORTH FRONT ST. GEORGE R. BEXTLEY, Proprietor Wealthy Motorists Will Tour American Roads | "Motor courses in Americanism," la | Hugh Chalmer*' way of detlning the significance of the sudden vogue of .transcontinental automobile trips , which Europe's war has conferred upon thts country. The head of the Chalmers Motor, iCompany holds that provincialism and! sectionalism fade away before the j magic of cross-country motoring. "Cutting a cross section of the j country by means of a leisurely cara-: vaning tri(J by motor," asserts Mr. \ Chalmers. "will afford intimate i glimpses of different regions of their! country to Americans who have htth- j erto been veritable strangers in their | own land. "Europe's war. which has barred ! globe-trotting Americans from foreign I haunts, is going to give our wander-1 i era and lovers of the exotic a dose of j genuine, old-fashioned Americanism j that will do them a heap of good. | "As they go motoring in this coun- | | try, they will discover that most of i | our roads lack the perfection of Eu- | | rope's motor trails. They will dls- i ! cover that one reason for our mediocre j j roads is the fact that too many Ameri can dollars have been poured iljto the! | funnel of foreign travel in past years, j j "The touring season of ISIS will i ' teach America's wealthy sons many j jof America's needs. It wiW vitalize. | the need of better roads and better ! wayside inns for devotees of the steer -1 ing wheel and the open road. I "The wholesome rigors that tourists will encounter on the road will do no j harm. Those who drive from coast to coast on the Lincoln highway will | ; find it a boulevard compared with many roads with which they are fa miliar. ' "Even its desert stretches need not jbe approached with alarm. There are I not more than three or four bad spots on the great American desert and even those are not much over a hundred yards in extent." Mr. Chalmers declares that many Chalmers owners will spend their va cations in their own cars this sum mer. Vacations thus spent, he asserts, will prove not only profitable but eco nomical. "See America First," he says, "and see it from your car." Burman Decides to Drive Own Car in Great Race } Confirmation of reports that Bob Burman had split with the Peugeot rac ing team in the next Indianapolis 500- mile race and decided to drive that con | test independently has arrived with the i signed entry of Burman at the wheel ! of a Burman special. The car is thought to be the rebuilt Peugeot with which Burman recently I annexed the world s dirt track cham | pionhlp and won the Oklahoma City road race, but there is no definite in formation on this point. Burman's entry is the thirty-third to be made or the Hoosier contest," two additional Sunbeams and a Cino-Pur cell having checked in before It. This is the limit that will be allowed on the track during the race, and any further entries will make eliminations neces sary. The Sunbeams, incidentally, are the ! cars campaigned by William Ziegler with such hard luck last season. They ! have been turned over to the Fortuna Racing Team. Inc., of New York, and will be piloted by Harry Grant, dual winner of the Vanderbilt cup. and Carl Limberg. The Cino-Purcell is one of the pair thai has been going through time trials at the speedway recently. The j other broke a crankshaft and is out of the running, its driver. C. C. Cox. being switched to the wheel of the Purcell I machine. A third Cino. owned by H. F. McNay, of Cincinnati, is now being I tested on the speedway, and may be i nominated for the 500-mile before the entries close. 1 UT'L- C\ll.'VTt Trucks of Great Service in Milk Delivery Ira Wtlaon. dairyman of Redford. I Mlcu., says tt would be impossible to do with horses what he does with motor trucks. Not only would It be impoa . sible for the horses to cover the ground ! the motor trucks do. but the slow pace of the horses would render the entire proposition out of the question. Mr. Wilson carries milk, not only i from his own, but from surrounding : dairy farms, on contract with the De | troit Creamery Company on a basis i of so much per 100 pounds per mile. | His present equipment Is two Keo 1 two-ton trucks—and he has an order |in for a third. Each of these trucks I covers ninety miles every day and car ] rles. instead of its rated" two-ton load, from three to three and one-half tons of milk. I Any practical dairyman will undfr ; stand when he is told that the load I consists of sixty to sixty-three ten gnllon cans of milk. To the unlnform | ed. It will be necessary to explain that i ten gallons of milk weigh eighty I pounds and that the cans tnemselves weigh twenty-three to twenty-seven I pounds each. It's a simple problem In i multiplication lo prove that the mlni | mum load is 6,300 pounds and the maxl- I mum 6,615 pounds—and that is about : three and one-quarter tons without counting the driver. Of course, the truck does not go fully loaded both ways—but it does carry that load over forty-five miles of Michi ! gan roads every day. four miles of ■ which are virgin sand —and the entire I route is ninety miles. : The truck starts out in the morning from Kedfern. goes to Detroit: from there It goes to Cherry Hill, where it picks up the second load and back into Detroit; thence home to Redford. again ready to repeat the performance the next day. "We have never missed a trip sum | met- or winter." says Mr. Wilson, "and I these Reo trucks have been in service for two years." Asked if any other trucks would do the same work, he replied. "1 suppose so—but I haven't founo them vet." Mr. Wilson Is an ardent believer in Reo and says that the third truck, which he now has on order and hopes to get in the next few days, is to re place one of another make he disposed of after onlv 500 miles. "I think George, the driver. Is prejudiced." said he. "The other truck looked just as good to me. Still we have had such wonderful success with the Reo. The first time the other one missed the schedule, it lost out so thoroughly I felt it necessary to replace It with one in which the boys had full confidence." Asked if he was making money on the contract, Mr. Wilson laughed and pointed to a huge pile of vitrified hol low tile heaped up In the barnyard. "Tou see I am going to build two more of the finest silos that can be lyid—and by the way. mv new Reo Six touring car just arrived from the factory last night." It looks as if Mr. Wilson had made no mistake by changing from the old. slow horse equipment to motor trucks. "t'ntil we introduced trucks for de livering milk, it was Impossible to mar ket half of the produce from this sec tion," said Mr. Wilson. "There is only one train a day and to send it bv horses was impossible—it would spoil before it got there Reo trucks have more than doubled the earning capacity of the farmers hereabouts." Saxon Cars Make 31 Miles to the Gallon Final results of the New York-Al bany and Boston-Springfield thirty-day runs by Saxon roadsters show remark able economy records, both cars aver aging better than thirty-one miles to the gallon of gasoline and seventy-five miles to the pint of oil. An Interesting feature of the Boston- Springfield run was the whirl-wind finish. Carrying a letter from the Mayor of Boston to the Mayor of Springfield on the final trip, G. F. Lom bard drove the Saxon the last 200 miles without once stopping the motor. After receiving congratulations of the mayor of Springfield, and with the mo tor still running, he added 300 miles more of non-stop running. In other words, the car actually covered 6300 miles, the final 500 miles being a non stop run. Tabulated figures of the New Tork- Albany trip showed that in thirty days the expense for operation of the car was $27.64 for the entire trip. The speedometer showed that because of detours made necessary by road repair ing the Saxon covered more than its scheduled distance, the mileage being 4612 miles at a cost of one-half a cent a mile. The best day's economy aver age was thirty-three miles per gallon of gasoline and 100 miles to the pint of oil. The car that ran between Boston and Albany covered 200 miles a day with a total in thirty days of 6000 miles. So far as automobile statis tics show this is a record number of miles for an automobile to travel in thirty days. The New York-Albany car ran 150 miles a day for thirty days, or a total of 4,500 miles. A considerable part of each day's travel necessitated climbing many hills, which made the test to' which this car was put as severe as I that of the Saxon in the New England territory. The Boston-Springfield car made a round trip each day between these twtS cities. The New York-Albany car made a one-way trip each day, going to Al bany along one side of the Hudson river and returning along the apposite bank. Both Saxons early in the long grind encountered what was considered tlirf worst blizzard of the winter in the East. They maintained their schedule in spite of the handicap of plowing their way through snow all along the route. CADILLAC FIRST IN TIRE MILEAGE CONTEST The first prize of |3OO in the annual tire mileage contest conducted by the Ajax-Grieb Rubber Company has just been awarded to Garth C. Jensen. He ] drove the same tire casing on a Cadil lac car a distance of 21,980 miles in a year. The car is owned by John N. Welsby, of Stevens Point, Wis. The second prize of S3OO was award ed Frank Gray, of Chicago, driver .of a Peerless for Carl N. Gottfried, on a mileage of 21.453 miles. A Cadillac owned by Oliver Smith, livery, Springfield, Mass.. and driven by Alfred C. Smith, was awarded third prize of S2OO on 21,039 miles. Among the fifty-eight prize winners of 525 and more there were nine Cadil lacs. showing an aggregate of 135,037 miles, or an averge of 15,004 miles. One of the most interesting features developed by the contest is that the lighter weight cars do not show among the highest mileage records. Onlv one other car is included in the published prize list nine times, with a total mile age of 124,67" miles, and this is a well-known representative of what are generally regarded as the heavier types. The second highest number of prizes taken by any one make is five— another big car —with a total mileage of 53,495. For the year ended last March the rubber company arranged for the dis tribution of $5,000 prize money to chauffeurs who could make sworn statements as to tire mileage on its particular make of tire. Another con test is on. to be decided at the end of the current twelve months, with the same amount for distribution.
