H. Bacon, Manager of the Channel Bus Company, who has returned from a two-weeks’' trip to Seattle. A new specially-constructed 21- passenger bus for tourist business and Glacier Highway trips was pur- chased by Mr. Bacon in Seattle. The new bus body, which is being built by the Tricoach Corporation of Se- attle, will be mounted on a new Ford bus chassis, a recent develop- ment of the Ford Motor Company, produced for the first time this year, and will arrive here about May 15. The bus will be finished in black “{and silver, similar to other equip- ment of the Channel Bus Company, and will be upholstered throughout with genuine leather. A large freight compartment will provide ample lug- gage space. The new Ford chassis is equipped with vacuum “booster” brakes and oversized tires. As an illustration of increased prosperity in the States, Mr. Bacon reported that the Tricoach Corpora- tion, builders of the new Channel bus, recently accepted a $60,000 con- tract to build six new bus units for a west coast company, and has been forced to turn down several smaller contracts. The Tricoach Corporation is owned by Mr. Bacon's brother-in- ilaw, George Yost, who also operates ;’:xy Bu:‘umnm nee’l‘unaporhuon Com- a 't of twen in Seattle and vicinity. i e ————— ' Mariam Dickey, private secretary to Capt.
