Onward American soldiers, march

Chorus
Yea, America's BoldierB, inarching

Second verse: Watch General Per

They wiU make Kiser say those boys

The problem of building a garage

out of the structure, has been solved
by designing a doof at the side In

hinged edge of the door Is farthest from

WHERE THE POWER SHOWS
Heavy Trucka That Are So Much Used
for Commercial Purpoaea Effect
Immense Saving.
Nowhere is the automobile vehicle
displayed in a higher degree of effi
ciency than in the big power-driven
coal trucks and the wagons for the
conveyance of building materials, now
so common. The big coal truck car-
ries four, six, ten times the load of
the old-time one-horse coal cart, anu
goes and comes four times as fast,
aud it's Just the same with the brick
and sand wagous.
Here was a big wagon loaded with
brick coming up the street at a good
smart clip to swing nut in front of a
buiMing under construction, and there,
with ample power, to back up to Just
where they wanted the brick dumped.
There the driver starts the auto
matic tilting mechanism, and In a min
ute he has dumped his big load and is
off for another, with that tilted wagon
body setting down Into position again
as he disappears down the street;
really an engaging Illustration of the
big power-driven wagon aa It ia seen
in action.

8and Sprays Prevent 8kidding.
A aandbox for motor trucks aud au
tomoblles, operated In a manner sim
ilar to the sandbox of locomotives, but
which spreads the sand sideways to
prevent skidding, Is one of the latest
Inventions. On either side of the car,
below the running board, are sand
boxes connected by piping with a com
pressed air cylinder situated at the
back of the car under the seat. Air
Is compressed by a simple attachment
to the driving shaft of the car. This
and the discharge of sand are con
trolled by a lever from the driver's
seat. The compressed air forces out
the sand, which Is thrown against
curved screens that depend from the
running board immediately in front of
the wheels. The screens reflect back
the sand, throwing it to each side aud
thus mailing u sund track sutlicieutly
wider tbau the wheels as to muke It
virtually Impossible for these to skid.
The Invention promises to be cheap
enough to coiue Into common use, uud
ought to be useful on Icy surfaces.
