Can An Auto Prance?

Can an automobile prance?—or is it In this one respect Inferior to the horse? A feW days ago a handy little truck was navigating Spring street, Jeffersonville, which is rather rough because the war delayed repairs; It was loaded with long boards which projected far behind and practically balanced the truck on the rear axle. When holes In the street were struck the front wheels reared up so violently that the chauffeur, or driver, was catapulted into the air. He then got down and “led” his truck which did not prance unless running at least five miles an hour. Had he “let 'er out” she would certainly have set on her tail.—lndianapolis News.
