Y., in com mand of Major General Leonard Wood was the train of motor cars, among which were two Cadillacs fully equip ped for military purposes. One of these w»o one of the fully armored and armed eight-cylinder Cadillac cars which recently made the notable trip across the continent in the squadron under command of Col. R. P. David son, of the Northwestern Military and Naval Academy. The other was a field hospital, also on the eight-cylinder chassis, which attracted much atten tion. Including the Cadillac Eights, there were fifteen cars in the train which made the run from New York to Plattsburg. It was composed of trucks, ambulances and officers' cars. The motor corps spent four and a half days on the road, making camp each night. The officers in command said that at least two and a half days had been spent repairing bridges and do ing other road work to enable the heavier vehicles to get over the de tours necessary to reach good camp ing grounds. Pn addition to the two Cadillacs in the motor corps, another was used by General Wood as the official head quarters car. General Wood laid particular stress on the usefulness of the motor car in time of war and pointed out the fact that if the own ers and commercial cars all ov?r the United States were organ ized into a trained boay, they would be a powerful division of the army. The camp at Plattsburg was com posed of about a thousand business men of New York, Including many of national prominence, who spent two weeks learning military life as enlist ed privates, under instruction of offi cers of the regular army. Packard Company Finds It Necessary to Build With 8,200 employes at work, mak ing up the largest payroll in its his-' tory, and orders for its product com ing in greater volume than ever be fore, the Packard Motor Car Com pany has found it necessary to pro vide large extensions to its Detroit plant. At the present time, additions comprising nearly 4 00,000 square feet of floor space are nearing completion. To get the picture of what this means in the aggregate, imagine a single floor 400 feet wide and 1,000 feet long. So rapidly has the Twin Six de mand developed within the past few weeks that, in many cases, the addi tions are double the size originally planned. The buildings now under way will cost approximately $750,- 000 and will bring the total floor space area of the Packard plant to 48 acres. Work is now going forward on additions to the stamping department, forge, foundry, pattern shop, heat treatment building, truck assembly department, truck stock, service de partment and car finishing depart ment. The improvements include also a new blacksmith shop 200 feet long and a five-story steel and concrete building 400 feet long for the machin ing of chassis parts. CHARGED WITH ROBBFRY George Scanlon, charged with at tempting to rob a Fifth street apart ment house several weeks ago was ar rested last evening by Officer Murphy. He was brought before Mayor Royal for a hearing late this afternoon. Hupp Playgrounds Prove a Popular Success The use of playgrounds as an in centive to keep children off the streets and thereby reduce the chance for ac cidents has been proven a practical success by the Hupp Motor Car Com pany of Detroit. Since the opening of the recreation playgrounds in the rear of the factory for the benefit of the children of the neighborhood it is es timated that the number of accidents has decreased from 60 to 75 cent. Offi ials of the Hupp company place the decrease at 60 per cent., but traffic officials in that section of the city make a more liberal estimate of 75 per cent. Just at present the recreation com mittee which has charge of all the playgrounds in Detroit has not com pleted its data on the value of play grounds as a safety first movement, although the directors know in a gen eral way the results obtained in taking tht children from the streets into a playground or onto the special streets which are being set aside for their use.

Saxon Crosses Continent in 21 Days on $34.96 Crossing the continent from Du Bois, Pa., to San Francisco over the Lincoln highway in exactly 21 days of con tinuous driving is the record just made by H. L.. Kriner and D. A. Yingllng In a Saxon roadster. With a total mileage of 3,600 miles to the credit of the car on this trip, Kriner and Yingling used only 168 gallons of gasoline and 10 34 gallons of oil. at a total cost of $34.96. They re ported upon reaching the coast that the car had surprised them during the trip with its ability to keen from over heating while crossing the Rockies. The tourists did most of their driving on high gear and declared that the motor seldom showed any signs of laboring. After visiting the exposition In San Francisco Kriner and Tingling will drive to Ix>s Angeles and San Diego and will return home to Du Bois. Pa., over the southern route. They are confident that they will make the re turn trip in as good form as they did the first half of their Journey. When the run is completed these men will have the distinction of being the first Saxon owners to make a round trip across the continent. Tn going from Du Bois to San Francisco in 21 days they have set a speed record for cars under SI.OOO on a trip of this length and severity. The showing their car made in economy so far as records Indicate has "never been equaled. Incidentally this performance again proves that long distance trips are to-day as easy for small cars as for the big, expensive machines. This transcontinental run recalls the ocean-to-ocean journey made a year ago by the Lincoln highway Saxon roadster driven by M. A. Croker and Fred Wilkins. The car dipped its front wheels in the Pacific ocean on July 4. thirty days after dipping its rear wheels In the Atlantic ocean. It averaged 30 miles per gallon of gaso line all the way from New Tork to San Francisco.

Among visitors to the San Francis co Exposition this year who earned the treat by the difficulties they sur mounted were four Illinois men, P. L.
