Ruling of Priority Board at Waihinf-ton Necessitates Cessation of Shq- ments on Materials CONSIDERING MOTORS-TRUCKS (Daily Record. Nov. 12.) Good roads advocates are temporarily put at a standstill by', the latest ruling of jthe priority shipment board at Washington, just received at Harrisburg.

All shipments of highway 'material are to "be stopped ln-deflnitely. and whn the stock on hand is exhausted, road workers will be out of a job. Aocordingjo the Washington board, the space, time and labor requirements for loading box cars with road building material are altogether out of proportion to the relative Importance of this work. Representatives of the State Highway returned from Washington conferences, are themselves uninformed as to when the embargo will be lifted, and state that the priority board itself does not yet know. The demand for coal Is so great that all open-top cars not required In the shipment of eteel and other waf materials are not sufficient 'to" meet It.

Contracts for fifteen new roads had been let by Highway Commissioner O'Nell during the last two months, and a escore of contracts are In the course of completion. In some sections the department is engaged 'n a frMt deal of road work. The new rulir.g necessitates tjie complete cessation of shipment" on stone, screening and similar materials. The supply nowon hand is sufficient complete twenty-six miles more. anl when th's is exhausted, work must stop Indications are that the embargo will not lift for some time, as manv e-sential war Industries are handicapped because of insufficient coal shipments.

Use of motor trucks is being considered by the department, where repairs are urgent. However, for anything tnit short hauls and needful work, the coat prohibitive.

ft. Raker, editor on the Towanda Review the last ten years, has severed his connection with that paper to he-come the owner and editor of the Bus. ouehnnna Transcript at Susquehanna, pa. Mr. Haker was one of the men who made the Review a popular dally newspaper, with hi Interesting style wonderful snake and fish stories.

He was given a farewell reception on Wednesday evening by the cltlxens of Towanda st the Ontario Club nd on hi reaching Susquehanna last vn Ing was given a ro-jslng welcome by the entire town, headed by the Sit-uuehanna "Trie Cornet Band. rrnnr iiinov nil sponsible for the major portion of the good things musically Wyoming valley has enjoyed during the last seyeral seasons, decided on this course unhesitatingly as soon as he learned that Kreieler's appearanee-here would be the subject of conflicting opinions. The fact that Kreialer has -served in the Austrian army, and the report persistent, although denied, that funds which he sends home are an aid to Austria, a country nominally perhaps not an enemy of the United States, but virtually one, have given rtee to cri-ticlsm that American audiences shouJT welcome him and pay to hear him. In Pittsburg he was forced to cancel his concert and elsewhere he has been the target of attack. In still other places he.

has been enthusiastically received. As to, the right and wrong of this, it is a question over which there is mil ch tvl sibn of opinion; As loyal and as patriotic a newspaper as the New York' World very earnestly de plores stirring up of feeling against Kreisler. However, at has Mr. Long shown a deslreuio thrust Kreisler on an unwilling public, no matter how small a division of it might be unwilling, and lost no time in takin.j steps to cancel the engagement The Record has' been in possession of an lnkling that this step -would be taken as soon as' the arrangements eouldbe effected, which explains the failure to publish several lengthy communications on the subject of Kreisler's prospective appearance.

9.) There seems to be always swnethlng new under the sun, and. the Inventive mind of man appears to have no limitations. When the linotype came out for the newspaper, it seemed about as near "human" as any machine could be. But the linotype only does the work one performed by nimble fingers. The measuregraph, however, performs the function of both fingers and mind not only accurately recording to the fraction of an inch but actually computing the prices totaling the amount whether vou buy a jfard orcallco at 10 cents or ten yards of chiffon- at It is all but human and more accurate than the' human mind.

In the dally transactions of the modern store there are five essential needs for mechanical agency In facilitating business, namely, in writing," registering, recording, weighing and measuring. For forty years thetypewriter has excelled the pen In BpettJjeatness and legibility. For thirty yearsHlw cash register has overcome the leaksoi. the money drawer and made for protection. system anu success, or twenty years the "adding-machroe has brain of the office man and increased efficiency In all recorded transactions, For ten years the computing scale has avoided countless arguments and guaranteed to both merchant and customer square deal.

But for all time there has been no machine to overcome the veil-known human limitations In the art of measuring until the measure-graph was presented as the fifth of the great Inventions. More accurate than hands, more dependable than mind. The measuregraph carries to customer the satisfaction of honest service. It gives to the salespeople a greater degree of efficiency. It is a mistake-preventing, time-saving It plays no favorites.

It serves 11 honestly and alike. It satisfies the customer, for It is absolutely Impossible for the clerk to give short measure. It not only measures the goods, but It also automatically and positively protects the customers from errors iu measuring and In price-figuring, besides making it posBible to render much faster service. Combined wlthjapld change cash registers, long since In -operation, the addition of a number of measuregraphs to Its equipment brings the service of this progressive store up to the 100 per cent. mark.
