Aluminum Now Used
in Auto Building
"Automobile manufacturing I no longer
a question of making a dependable motor
a." says Elmer Apperson, president of
Apperson Brothers' Automobile company.
"From now on, makers are utilising every
effort, and doing everything In their
power, to make a car that will be eco
nomical la operating expense. In these
days, the prospective purchaser Invari
ably asks, "How many miles on a gallon
f gasoline" and "is the car golnn to be
expensive In the matter cf tires."
I'roper we'ght Is responsible for this
marked change. Homt-ver. it must not b
understood that .this l brought about by
sacrificing trength. To secure medium
weight It Is necessary" to us th flaest
teel and a generous distribution of alum
inum. Fof an example. In the now Ap-
jerson four th lower and upper lalf of
th crank case, tha transmission case and
bearing caps are made of aluminum. It
w'll b seen from this that the buyer Is
now In a position to secure these expen
sive materials In a medium priced car."

Neighbors of Kaoul Dupuy, a farmer
living near Montreal, In the province of
Quebec, pay him for the upkeep of hi
Model J Reo truck. Of course, Mr.
Dupuy uses his truck for his own pur
produce and milk. But Inasmuch as tho
Mod si J I capable of much more work
than th hauling of farm stuffa and milk
necessitate, the enterprising Mr. Iupuy
ha bit upon a neighborhood delivery
schema which, as a side line, not only
pays for th upkeep of the truck, but net
him a neat sura of money besides.
Every morning Mr. Dupuy transports
his farm truck, such as tomatoes, celery j
and other garden atuffs, twelve mile to ;
tha Montreal market After disposing of
hi produce, he load the Reo Model J
with food supplies and merchandise for
his neighbors. On the return trip to the
farm he distributes barrels of flour, kegs
of paint and nails and boxes of dry
goods along his rout. In the late after
noon the day's milk supply Is ready for
city delivery, and back goes the ruck
to Montreal with its load of milk cans.
All In all, th Modal J Is In us on an
average ot twenty hours a day by Mr.
