The recent trip of county officials
to the cities of the East in the study
of road materials and road building
should prove of value to Harris
county. There is no reason for be-
lieving that we know how to build
the best and cheapest rGads, and
there is every reason for discovering
all that other eections know con-
cerning these important matters.
Now that the engineering ex peri;
ence of the Federal government
may be called to the aid of all
Texas counties in the construction
of roads, the building of those
which shall be undertaken in this
State should be of such lasting
quality as will assure the taxpayers
that their money is being spent to
advantage When this is done,
there will be far less objection to
the voting of bonds than there has
been in the past.—Houston Post.

Ice Nearly Stops Grant Six On 1.237
Miles Non Stop Trip
To show the people of Portland,
Ore., and Seattle, Wash., what
kind of a performer the Grant
Six is, the representatives of the
Grant Motor Car corporation in
those cities this week put the
Grant stock car through a daring
1 and sensational trip of 1,237
miles, during which it was driven
back and forth between the two
western cities three times with-
out a stop of the motor.
Although the trip was made
during the worst weather of the
year, and eight tires were worn
out and two sets of tire chains
were torn link from link by the
treacherous road surface, the
sturdy car met every emergency
without a whimper and came
through without the touch of a
tool.
Time and again the drivers
had to stop, put a coat over the
radiator and bundle it up like a
sick pup, then, by raising the
engine, heat the radiator enough
to thaw the ice, which threatened
each moment to stop the circula-
tion in the tubes.
The ice about the radiator
formed while the car was being
driven through the sleet or else
was breaking through the crust

on the road to pick up mud and
water, which froze the minute
it was splashed against the parts
o^ the car. So much ice and
muck was frozen to the steering
members that the car could
hardly be turned around a corner
with as wide a curve as the ordin-
ary street. The Pilots had to
get out every lew miles during
the greater part of the journey,
and chop the ice off the running
gear.
When the Grant Six ended the
trip it was still running on the
original gallon of oil with which
it started. The gasoline average
was not kept accurately on the
entire run, because the motor
was allowed to run many hours j
without doing any work. The j
only test was made during the j
tirst lap of the journey, when it j
made 200 miles with an average'
of 20.(5 miles to the gallon.
Great interest shown in the
Grant Six car in Portland and in i
Seattle during the last few days,
is ascribed to the performance of
the car on the triple Seattle-
Portland journey.
