Now he appears to have succeed- i the horse and wagon. Accordingly,
ed. for after years of struggle he has
perfected a motor-vehicle delivery
unit that supplants the horse and

Heretofore the horse has withstood
the attacks of technocracy in door-
i to-door city delivery, for the horse
has no gears to shift, burns only hay
and oath, and can learn a route as
well as the driver—feats no auto-
mobile could equal. ;
But Oldfield's new vehicle, accord-
ing to his claims, will “do (every-
thing a horse can do except come
when you whistle.” >
It is, in effect, a one horse wagon
with the shafts cut off and a “me-
chanical horse” put under the rear
end. All the vehicle's machinery, in-
cluding motor and transmission, is
attached in a single unit to the rear
wheels. The entire unit, wheels and
all, can be replaced almost as quickly
