FRIDAY and SATURDAY

FCRM-A-TRUGKS USED BY ARMY

Smith Form-a-Tnicks are being used in large numbers by the various state militia for signal corps work., as the outcome of the order placed by the adjutant general of the Illinois national guard when the Illinois troops were mobilised last-Wednesday. . . - The order from the Illinois national guard for a Smith Form-a-Truck came in at 11:30 in the morning, and rtf 3:00 in the afternoon of the same day Captain Simmons of the singal corps division received a delivery of - the Smith Form-a-Truck with special body built and. ready for service. . Immediately following the delivery of this jobi telegrams were sent to the adjutant generals of the various state militia,, and the result was an influx of orders for immediate delivery, which were taken care of with the, same rapidity as the delivery made to the Illinois" national guard. : The Smith Form-a-Truck. because of relatively high power of the motor used, the extreme strength and lasting qualities of the Smith . Form-a-Truck attachment itself, and the light weight of the complete truck which makes it possible to drive it through sand and mud, and over rough roads as easily as over the smoothest macadam, has made this uit a highly desirable one for militia service.
