It is a coihfortable closed car when the weather is bad and on fine days an open roadster with permanent top. Its Nash Perfected Valve-in-Hea-d Motor is unusually powerful, economical and quiet. rearrangement of routes hd enabled him to save the time and labor of two extra trucks with their crews. In another rase that recently eame under observation the manager of the motor truck fleet of a big city store trievl the experiment of putting four trucks in a territory that had formerly been covered bv three. But he removed the helper from all four trucks. When he came to make comparisons from his daily record sheets, he found that his trueks were delivering 30 per cent more package than the previous year's fleet, and that the salaries of the three helpers who had been relieved of duty, more than offset the upkeep and fuel bills of the foyrtli truck. The cost of the added vehicle was a charge that would have been inevitable anyway, owing to the increased deliveries in the district. It must not be understood that doing away with helpers will work out in this way, but the comparison of the daily record sheets proved to the manager that in hig ease the helpers wore not necessary to efficient operation.

Salt Lake City, Wasatch 952. g Another very valuable record for the transportation manager to have before him is a chart platted from the daily record sheets and covering the ent v ear. On this chart a line will be drawn showing the total deliveries each day by the entire fleet. An added feature of this ehvt is ft seeoiid line drawn in red, showing the total deliveries day by day for the preceding vear. By the time tins ehart is a few weeks old the trans portittion manager bag before him perpetual commentary on the increase of business he may reasonably expect. Applying this obtect lesson, he may diaguose the work his trucks will be called upon to handle during tho peak load period. Tba v alue of this sort ef predigested information with regard to the delivery fleet does not pud here. For instance, it is vitally important that every truck in service hall be at the height of its efficiency whin the peak load period Thia arrives along about November. peak load seaSou differs in different businesses, though it usually fulls in the last two mbnth of the vear, as we have noted. With his ilaih rhart before him the traffic manager knows to a dot when ho can expect his peak load period and can prepare lor it ahead of time.. rent cars continuously during tbeir stay. flic company is only temporarily situated on Richards street, while a new location is being made ready for them.

By manipulation it is geucrallv possible to give every unit in the fleet an overhauling during the two months lmnicduitely preceding their period of heaviest work. The peak load period is one to be dreaded, of course, but with carefully compiled records the traffic manager can so handle his problems that they will lose half their sting.
