Thousand "Mile Race to Be Over
Same Course as That of Last
Year; Date" Set for July 30.
.Th Rom City Motorcycle club has
ben awarded the sanction of the M:
& A. T. A. for the North Pacific
sectional endurance run which will
be run on the same course as was
used last year for the 1000 mile run.
This run will be held July 30, 31,
August 1 and 2.
Starting at The Journal building at
7 :01 a. m., July SO, each rider will leave
at minute intervals. The first checking
station - will be Hood River, the next
Rock Creek Ferry. In accordance with
" the rules, each rider must spend one
half hour for lunch.
The third checking station will be
Heppner, in the center of the Oregon
desert ; next comes Pendleton, where
etch rider must check In onetime, the
first rider being due at 6:20 p. m.
This i the first night control where
the ridera stay over night and check
out the next morning at 7 :01 a. m. for
Walla Walla. From here on they travel
through "Moe of the worsj roads in the
country to Pomerdy, Wash., which Is the
noon control of the second day, and each
rider spends one-haJf . hair again for
lunch.
From Pomeroy they travel on to Spo
kane, .the end of the second day's run,
where the riders were so warmly wel-
corned last year.
It is the supposition of the veterans of
last year's run that 20 per cent of the
starters will never reach this point on
time. After spending all night in this
city, they take up the run again on the
following morning for ' Davenport. Be
tween these two points they travel dver
a wonderful stretch of paved highway
and then into Odessa,
r The scenery In this territory greatly
resembles the Colorado canyon and the
j wonderful Columbia river winds Its
stately way along the "highway until
we reach Vantage Ferry. From Van
tags Ferry the riders proceed on " to
KUensburg and from there over some
more well paved roads into Seattle.
Here the riders will be refreshed with
a good night's sleep Including real beds
and a , good substantial meal or two.
This last day's run is the -longest run
cf the contest.
The following morning loncemore at
7:0i a. m. they will start out-on the last
day's run for Chehalis. the place for
the noon control. Thence they will wind
back int.- Portland, being due at 2:50
p. m. at The Journal Building.

Edward R. Roberts, for several years

the Locomobile: company, haa been made

The Stewart plant was kept In opera
tion during the railroad strike by the
use of Stewart trucks. On Wednesday,
April 14, the factory ran close to the
danger line on various stocks of ma
terials. The engineering department

line between the various points of sup
ply and Buffalo. So' by the above it
can readily be seen that the motor truck

emergency even to keeping up and in
creasing production in motor truck
plants. !

Announcing That We Have Secured the Distri
bution of STEWART TRUCKS for Oregon
' .... ' I.,".
Trucks cost less to run
Many owners tell us that their "Stewarts" cost about 20 less to run than
other trucks they have used. This gratifying result is due to Stewart simplified
design which eliminates hundreds of needless parts, giving you a simpler fend
stronger truck. .
The tire mileage of the Stewart is
really wonderful gasoline and oil
consumption is low. - The repair shop"
is almost a stranger to the Stewart.
And these high-gradft Stewarts cost
$200.00 to $300.00 less than the aver
age price of other trucks.

family ot thousands of satisfied Stew
art users. '
