An old but true addage "An Ounce of Prevention is worth more than a Pound of Cure." ‘

Many motorist who use their cars daily for local routine with never any trouble. fail to

realize that a car that appears to work well under local needs may be quite unfit to undertake

the grueling of a long distance trip. Minor faults remain unnoticed through months of ordinary

driving, but when the car is called upon to work at maximum power over long periods of time

and distance. these small and minor faults develop into major difficulties and detract the fun and i

enjoyment from motoring. A successful and enjoyable motor trip depends mostly on a well

groomed car.

Both safety and pleasure are at stake when a motorist starts on a trip before the carI

has been thoroughly checked and the faults removed. The first thing to be certain about areI

the brakes and the steering apparatus. Most mishaps are caused by bad brakes and defective

steering. In most cases simple adjustments are only necessary to remove this evil. Next. be sure

you have good tires. Good tires insures safety. Your best tires should always be on the front

wheels. By doing this you reduce the chance of front tire trouble which means more dependa-ble control. Good and proper lighting comes next. Make sure you have good bulbs and your

‘

headlight beams properly adjusted. Carry a spare set of bulbs and fuses. A good windshield

wiper adds comfort and safety. Wiper blades are inexpensive but very valuable in a rain storm.

Nothing is more of a killjoy when the motor starts to spit and pop and then stops. To

, overcome this and add comfort and uninterrupted pleasure; everything should be done to prevent

these enforced halts. A motor tune-up is the solution. This checkup when done properly will

remove the hidden evils, and will allow your motor to perform at its maximum efficiency. -M‘w..-The proper tune-up should consist of:

1. Complete Ignition inspection. which includes Lighting and Engine Wiring.

Sparkplugs. Distributor Points, Generator, Starter, Condenser. Coil, and

Timing.

2. Carbureation, which includes. Carbureator Cleaning and adjustments and

Engine Valve adjustment. ~MM.W_W-.~V

Last but not least is Lubrication. A complete change of lubricants in the Crankcase.3

Transmision and Rear Axel is recommended and a thorough greasing of the Chassis. Insist that

the Lubricants used are those recommended by the manufacturer of your car. Accept no sub- 1stitutes. Shock Absorbers should not be overlooked as they are subject to severe use on long

HOW TO KEEP FROM

GROWING OLD

I.

Always race with locomotive to

crossings. Engineers like it; it breaks

the monotony of their jobs.

Always pass the car ahead on

curves or turns. Don’t use horn, it

may unnerve the fellow and cause

him to turn out,too far.

Demand half the road—thle middlehalf. Insist on your rights.

‘

Always speed; it shows them youare a man of pep even tho an amateurdriver.

Never stop, look or listen at rail-road crossings. It consumes time.

Always lock your brakes when

skidding. It makes thle job more

artistic.

In sloppy weather drive close to

pedestrians. Dry cleaners appreciatethis.

Never look around when you back

up; there is never anything behind

you.

Drive confidently, just as tho therewere not eighteen million other cars
