A NEW CHEAP SPEEDSTER
This high-geared, three-wheeled automobile.
designed by Frederick E. Fisher, a Baltimore,
Maryland, inventor, can make from seventy-
live to ninety miles an hour. Because the
center of gravity is so low the machine can cut
around sharp corners at thirty miles an hour
without overturning. The car is built to sell at
a very moderate price.
TRAINING THE NEW TROOPS
To aid the troops in gaining a knowledge of motorized warfare, the Chalmers Motor Company of Canada
has loaned a Chalmers chassis to the Scottish Borderers. A Lewis rapid firing gun has been mounted
on the chassis and the machine gun operators have practiced shooting while moving along the road at
the dizzy pace of 50 miles per hour.
