JSmmuutii 318 Market Street SAXON CARS MAKE 31 MILES TO A CALLONOF GASOLINE Boston-Springfield Machine Covers 0,000 Miles in 30 Days, While New York- Albany Saxon Makes 4,500 Miles Over Hills Final results of the New York-Albany and Boston-Springfield 30-day runs by Soxon roadsters show remarkable econ omy records, both cars averaging better than 31 miles to the gallon of gasoline and 75 miles to the pint of oil. An interesting feature of th Boston- Springfield run was the whirl-wind finish. | Carrying a letter from the Mayor of j Boston to the Mayor of Springfield on the final trip, G. F. Lombard drove the i Saxon the last 200 miles without once | stopping the motor. After receiving I congratulations of the Mayor of Spring- j field, and with the motor still running, I he added 300 miles more of non-stop I running. In other words, the car actual j ly covered 6,300 miles, the final 500 ! miles being a non-stop run. Tabulated figures of the New York- Albany trip showed that in 30 days the expense for operation of the ear was j $2 5.64 for the entire trip. The speed ometer showed that because of detours j made necessary by road repairing the j Saxon covered more than its scheduled ; distance, the mileage being 4,642 miles j at a cost of one-half a eent a mile. The I best day's economy average was 33 j miles per gallon of gasoline and 100 • miles to the pint of oil. The car that ran between Boston and j Albany covered 200 miles a day with a total in 30 days of 6,000 miles. So far as automobile statistics show this is a record number of miles for an auto mobile to travel in 30 days.' The New York-Albany car ran 150 miles a day for 30 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 that of the Saxon in the New England ter ritorv. The Boston-Springfield car made a round trip each day between these two 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 opposite bank. Both Saxons early in the long grind encountered what was considered the 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.—Adv.* HARRISBVRGLIGtiT &pOWER,ffI The Greatest Electrical Bargain Ever Offered For the next sixty days you can buy for cash only a $3.50 Electric Iron, guaranteed for five years, for $1.85 \\ e have just received a large supply of these irons aud they must go in the next sixty days. BUY AT ONCE WAR IN EUROPE WILL MAKE PEOPLE TRAVEL AT HOME Hugh Chalmers Says Auto Tourists Will Then Discover Why American Roads Lack the Perfection of Europe's j Motor Trails "Motor courses in Americanism" is Hugh Chalmers' way of defining tin significance of the sudden vogue of transcontinental automobile trips which j Europe's war has conferred upon this | country. The head of the Chalmers Motor Com- | I pany holds that provincialism and sec- j | tionalism fade away before the magic j J of cross-country motoring. "Cutting a cross section of the conn | I try by means of a leisurely caravaning trip by motor," asserts Mr. Chalmers, 1 J "will afford intimate glimpses of dif- j I ferent regions of their country to ! Americans who have hitherto been j j veritable strangers in their own land, j i and is going to give our wanderers and ! : lovers of the exotic a dose of genuine, | j old-fashioned Americanism thht will do them a heap of good. "As they go motoring in this roun- ' try, they will discover that most of our 1 loads lack the perfection of Europe's j motor trails. They will discover that \ one reason for our mediocre roads is the j fact that too many American dollars I have been poilred into the funnel of | foreign travel in past years. "The touring season of 1915 will j teach America's wealthy sons many of i America's needs. It will vitalize' the | need of better roads and better wayside inns for devotees of the steering wheel and the open road. "The wholesome rigors that tourists will encounter on the road will do no harm. Those who drive from coast to coast on the Lincoln Highway will fin,l it a boulevard compared with many roads with which they are familiar. "Even its desert stretches need not be approached with alarm. There are 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. Ross Morton, of the Keystone Motor Car Company, the local Chalmers distributor, declares that manv Glial mers owners will spend their vacations in their own cars this summer. Vaca tions thus spent, he asserts, will prove not only profitable but economical.
