Hushenberg, the catcher for the visitors, got foxy in the ninth in ning, capering around First Base man Stimpson and .was sent to the benches for interference with an op posing player. ' A number of complaints came 'on account of the failure of the games to begin on time. With the con tinued wind blowing Platte river sand into the eyes of everyone, as it has done the past several Sundays, the siege of sitting through nine in nings is tiresome enough of itself to say nothing of a long wait for the game to begin. Stimpson, while not being at his best, fought under adverse condi tions and put up an excellent game under the circumstances. Joe Mc Carthy, while missing one in ' the field, did good work there.

That this proposition, like the coming of the automobile, is des tined to see wonderful development and go a long ways toward solving the transportation problem in years to come is quite certain. It is past the experimental stage already, and for some time has been operated with suecess between many eastern cities and towns. In fact, right at Omaha, it is proving profitable to men oper ating independently, as attested by the following article which we clip from a recent issue of the Bee: "A number of cities within the radius of Omaha trade territory are urtrinsr the local Chamber of Com merce to encourage the interurban motor truck freight service. "Since early this spring a number of motor truck lines have been start ed, operating between Omaha and towns and cities out 20 to Su miles The service is as yet irregular, and a move is on foot to bring about the adoption of regular running schedul es in order that shippers may know when to have their consignments ready. "It is said many of the men oper ating trucks are making money This is especially true when they arc able to load in both directions.'

The next time you go down the street or out onto the highways, the scenery, the conditions and the busi ness may have changed a lot, to say nothing of the changed state of so ciety, etc. To meet changed condi tions, changed mehod.s of overcoming them, must logically be employed The I mted States entered into this war with one hand tied, so to speak, through a record of cones'ei railroads, .made only the worre by shortage of freight cars, and with coal and food -movements taking up largely the available hauling facili ties of the lines. Our entry into the war created these same new condi tions that confront us on every hand from day to day. For once we join ed hands to defeat the Kaiser, it be came necessary to divert much of our transportation facilities to the haul ing of troops and getting supplies to them and to, the Alantic seaboard for shipment overseas. The situation be came no better fast and soon the gov ernment had to take over the rail roads of the nation, which it did on December 2Sth. Some of the prob lems confronting them at that time have been overcome, while others have grown only the more aggre vated with the passing of time and its increasing demand made upon th roads as the wants ot a nation at war have increased. And so Ihe fact remains, that de spite the best efforts of the road working together in unison, there is still a marked congestion of freight trafic. In many places motor truck are being resorted to as effective aids to the movement of nierchan dise, and,' given good roads ove which to travel, they are proving wonderfully efficient. Tlie disposi tion at present is to confine their usefulness largely to the short-haul business, thus relieving cars and train crews to engage in the Ions er aim more necessary hauls. It is conceded that if they can go loaded both ways, journeys into the conn try over a radius of a hundred miles can he made profitable to the opera tors of such a system of transportation. A movement is on foot to have at the center of such circles or zones of transport, a central truck freight depot or assembling station, from which the loading of trucks can be done. Then. too. alone th route of travel, smaller collecting and dis tributing facilities can be provided quite readily. The road problem is c.-r-eni ia. i hi i ne working out oi a time schedule, especially at some seasons of the year, but at others it is o? little consequence, as there art times when all roads arc good. l'p possibilities of the truck are almost unlimited. As to just what it can do, we accept as evidence of ibility it own testimony laid bare on the witness stand of perfonuance, when it sas: "I am the motor truck; I came out of the necessity of orourei'.s: I was bom to follow the will of wisdom ind fake burden.", from the tired lacks of beasts; I brought speed to raffle and economy to busines;;; 1 take the place of three horse-drawn vehicles in our lane:-, of commerce. t hua. saving space in our streets; I ighten taxation by keeping those highways clean; I carry raw niater- al to manufacturers who must of needs stop for patriotism's sake with out my aid; I take the hardships from embargoes; I save worthy men em financial wreck; I carry milk o babies that wan faces may bo bright; I bring coal in winter and ce in summer; I bring comfort, pro gress, luxury, but above all I bring the aid which will crush the'&e'f-!
