War is'the grimmest business of mankind, t nd the military motor-cyclist stakes his hie, very often, noon the reliability of his mount. Here is what Sergeant k E. Schofield, R.E., senior instructor of the Motorcycle Sec tion at Aldershot, has to_ say :-"Nearly every dispatch rider that has gone to the front has passed through my hands, and I am therefore in a position to judge how the different makes of machine are In favour. The B.S.A. is by far away the favourite, and it has yet to happen that a B.S.A. has failed to act up to its well-earned repute. ... I may state that BO per oent. of the machines here are B S.A.'s." A motor-cyclist with the Second Cavalry Division, British Expeditionary Force, writes in a private letter:'"The ■ roads are hellish. . . . My B.S.A. IB tho goods. I never have to touch it. They are the bikes, my boy. They knock the -— and any other make you like to mention into a cocked hat." There are plenty of other letters from the fro-it, all to the same effect. Wo are .landing- 20 of the latest model B.S.A.'s ox s.s. Marlborough thiß weok, and can give immediate de. livery. They are ideal machines for either solo or side-car service, and their reliability is famous. Thu h.p. is 4}, and the three-speed countershaft gear is foolproof and wonderfully efficient.
