According to the latest word re-
ceived by Mr. B. A. Elzner, local
dealer in United States Tires, the
vorld-renowned Trackless Train is
soon to rait on a tour of Asia
In the past three years this train
has traveled all over the United
States, Europe, and South A merica.
Its guest book includes the signa-
tures of hundreds of the leading
notables of the world. More Kings,
Queens, Presidents, Governors and
Mayors have been passengers on the
Holt Trackless Train than on any other
it's v,"hicle in history.
Although the engine looks like *
small locomotive, nt is in reality a
specially built motor truck. The
Parlor car is luxuriously furnished
and both are mounted in United
States Pneumatic Tires.
The train is now on tour in Aus-
tralia after which it will go to New
Zealand, Japan, China Malaya, In-
dia and Egypt. The return to Amer-
