A. F. Bement, vico president and sec- retary of the Lincoln Highway Associa- tion, with headquarters in Detroit, has just returned from. an inspection trip over the Lincoln highway ' between Philadelphla and New York city. He reports the route in excellent condition, although two detours are necessary, one between Philadelphia and Trenton and the other between Rahway and Eliza- beth, both on account of new construc- tion under way. } “A trip over the¢ Lincoln highway | between Philadelphia and New York |provides many surprises to touring { motorists unused to heavy frelght trans- port in the multiplicity of big rubber- tired freighters employed constantly be- {tween thesc two cities, hauling every | conceivable kind of merchandire,” said {Mr. Bement. He pointed out that motor- {rucking_companies were_springing_up almost dally, offering efficient service ! which not only helps to relleve the rail- i roads of a portion of their heavy burden, { but also offers quicker transportation in }that all terminal delays, so common to railroads, are avolded. At first these heavy-duty trucks were confined to the solid-tire class, but the |auunugca of big cord tires have led many truck owners to equip their freighters with pneumatics. The great reduction in wear and tear on the trucks and the greater speed permitted are among the advantages sald to be gained. FIFTEEN OF THESE TRUCKS AND TRAILERS ARE R HOURS PER DAY IN THE CITY OF CANTON. In the Pilgrim’s Day NING FIFTEEN FLOAT WILL RIDE HIGH WHEN BATTERY IS LOW How to Properly Read Hydromet- er Explained in Plain Language. “How can that little glass ‘do- flitter’ tell whether a battery Is fully charged or not?” dublously queries some fair lady motorist during the day's work \atthe. average battery service statlon. And many a man would like to know more about the same subject, but he does not like to confess - his ignorance—hlis curlosity 18 not quite so keen. ‘The: explanation Is. simple, indeed, and very reasonable when one gives it sufficient consideration. It hap- pens that the sulphurlc acld used in a battery solution is heavier than water alone, and the hydrometer | used for battery testing merely indi- cates the relative weight of the solu- tion compared with the wc!ghl of pure water. ‘When a battery is fully churged a great amount of the acid in the bat- tery solution has combined with the lead compounds in the plates. Natu- rally the solution is weak in acid and the float rides deep. But when the battery -is discharged and the acld is in the solution—the solution has become heavier—and the hydrometer float rides high. ‘The Willard Storage Battery Com- pany and many other manufacturers recommend, the tegular and frequent testing of batteries with the dydrome- ter. Unless a baftery has been meddled with by some inexperienced person, this makes a reliable test of the state of charge. PRICE OF DAVIS CAR CUT. Announcement is made by _the George W.
