TRUCK AND BUS LINES REACH ALL PARTS OF THE STATE--The great revolution in local transportation which has followed the highway improvement of the past few ycdrs
is readily appreciated in looking at a map cbmtDiled by the state highway department, from records of ,the public service commission. which has jurisdiction over commercial.bus and truck hnh.

example, the f reigril ; truck line, from Crane r to Bl jtzbh; in HarneV jcounty. In some sections the freight truck lines and the passenger bus rb utes are not coextensive, one feectidn may have
