FURIOUS DRIVING ALL
Triplex Springs Protect Car
From Road Vibration of
Driving at an Average
3214 Mile an Hour ,
i Speed.
Driven continuously for seven dnys
and seven nights, over ordinary bu'Ii-
urban roadways, an Overland 4 stock
car has established at Indianapolis,
Jnd., a new unofficial world's mileage
record for a light car tinder ItiS
hours of incessant driving. '
The Overland 4 in tho seven days
and night of this remarkable endur
ance run piled up record of 5,452.1
jmlles. The car finished the grind on
the same Plsk tires which it started.
To make this new record, the drivers
" of Overland 4 maintained an average
speed of 32 Vi miles an hour, 24
hours a day. Gasclino mileage was
20,24 miles a gallon.
The consistency of Overland 4 per
formance is shown in this tabulation
of each day's run. The first day and
night, the speedometer registered 749
j miles. On the second day, the mark
was 778 miles; on the third, 747
miles; on the fourth. 793; fifth, S09;
sixth, 823, and on the last lap of the
new unofficial world's record, 753
miles.
The! test, the first of its kind to be
tried and actually accomplished by a
light car, started at 9 a. m. on Feb
ruary 2fith and ended at 9 a. m. on
March 3rd. The run was conducted
by the Gibson Company of Indianapo
lis,' distributors for Overland cars
The mileage and gasoline records are
certified by the following observers:
Howard F. (Howdy) Wilcox, win
ner of the. 1919 Indianapolis Speed
way '500 mile racing classic; Munrce
E. .Boblet, secretary of the Hoosier
Motor club of Indianapolis; and R. H.
Scrogin, editor of the (Hoosier Mo
torist, i
r Although the new Overland 4 with
Triplex springs had been tested 250,
000 miles under all possible weather
and road conditions before it was
placed on the market by the Willys-
lOverland Company, the officials of
the company feel that the Indianapo
lis endurance run is one of tho most
convincing demonstrations yet made
of the reliable, economical perfor
mance of the car and the road-com-
fort qualities of the now famous Tri
plex Bpring suspension.
Officials of the company witnessed
the start and the finish of the seven-continuous-day
run. Careful exam
ination of the car and its power plant
after the run convinced the' Gibson
company that the car was ready to re
peat the endurance test of the 168
i hours of furious driving and largely
'because the car had been protected by
the new Triplex springs. The run is
considered the highest possible verifi
cation of the ability of this new
spring suspension to protect the car
from road wear and provide big car
riding comfort In a motor car of short
wheel-base. Adv.

ASHLAND, April 2 Presbyterians
gathered in annual reunion at the
church on .Wednesday evening. As a
preliminary a big feast was served,
and it was such a repast us has made
tho yeurly gathering famous. There
was a superabundance of all the stib
stuntials and luxuries, served In gen
erous measure by the Wednesday
Afternoon club and the Ladies' Aid.
This year the attendance wus notably
large and enthusiastic. Fortified by
an Ideal dinner, the business session
which followed was correspcudlngly
energetic. Aggressiveness Is in order
with all tho activities of tho church,
the spiritual and financial outlook
being gratifying. There is $500 or
more in tho treasury, a condition
which has not heretofore prevailed
for years. Evidently the congrega
tion, in meeting a multiplicity of calls
on every band, are not unmindful of
their church obligations. Church
Sunday school, missionary and other
activities have been quickened, while
the social status is marked by an era
of good fellowship which is even more
than proverbial. The position of ftev
C. F. Koehlor as permanent pastor
has been confirmed, and under his
ministrations tho work of the church
lias become standardized along pro
gressive lines.
