"If It's on the Market We Have It"
Tl'LSA. Okla., July 7. (I. X. ..)
A trip to California is being made,
from this cliy in one of the most uni
que "vacation boats" imaginable. This
"gasoline bungalow" Is mounted on a
two-and-one-half-ton truck chassis
equipped with a motor from a five-ton
trrtck.
The "voyagers," who are now en
route to California In their "pullman"
home, are Mr. and Mrs. Walter K.
Campbell, their daughter. Dorothy,
fourteen, and their son, James, six
teen. This family plans to spend two
or three months "vacationing," all of
which virtually will be spent on the
road.
The plan of building a house on
wheels" in which to spend his vacation
was conceived by Mr. Campbell who Is
a prominent oil operator of Tulsa.
Mr. Campbell considers that the vaca-
i tlnn for himself and family will be a
very economical one. There will be
no railroad fares and no "profiteering"
prices for meals, accompanied by lib
eral tins to waiters.
"While the first cost is a considera
ble item, the trip Itself should be made
at a fraction of the expense of the
name trip by railroad." Mr. Campbell
stated. "Hut we intend to use this car
from year to year, for it Is built for (
service us well as for looks. There
may be a few repairs from time to
time, but even they 'will cost less than'
railroad travel and its accompanying
j expenses.
.Motor Bungalow Compact I
i Campbell's "highway bungalow" is I
I sixteen feet long and six feet four
inches high. There are quite a . few i
windows, which extend entirely around
! the car, causing it to resemble a street j
car.

He finds the Hood Bayside "sneaker" is so much

thick enough to protect his feet and the lighter

the Baysides cost less.
Hood Baysides are a long wearing summer shoe

many telephones which keep the offi

supplies the artificial cooling system
with refrigerating power.
In the various cooking galleys elec
tricity runs machines that peel pota

exactly alike, and bake bread. In the
laundry electrical machines wash and
dry clothes.
Duplication of I tilitlcs.
In the depths of the ship are the
great motors that provide the driving
power. And in every part of the great
fighting craft are lights that feed on
electric current.
The New Mexico is said to contalr
T.i.flrtrt miles of electric wiring. The
supeidread nought is therefore so sci
jent'Xcally fitted, and Its construction
so up to date, that any order can be
executed in a few minutes after it has
been flashed from the captain's
I bridge.
J tireat care has been taken in all th.
! designs, finished machines and war
' equipment, to have practically every
thing duplicated. Within a few sec
onds after some vital equipment is put
out of commission in time of battle its
effort could lie duplicated with an
other device.

the electricity-driven propellers are
Vistly superior to the steam-driven

One of the effective arguments in
favor of the "electric ship," aside from
economy of operation, is cleanliness.

been operated three years.
