NAILS ARE HANDY.

A handy thing for every motor
list to keep in his tool box is a
varied assortment of wire nails.
These nails will often come in
handy to replace split pins and
the like.
In replacing spark plugs in a
hot cylinder, they should not be
screwed up too tight, or difficulty
will be experienced In removing
them.
When an acetylene lamp lights
up quickly with a yellowish flare
it's sign of a leak somewhere
A lamp in good order should light

TIRE COMPANY
GIVES $4,000
IN PRIZES
Is LOYAL SUPPORTER OF THE
SPORTY SIDE OF AUTO
MODELLING.

The Continental Tire Co. has
been the most liberal patron of the
sporting side of automobiling, es-
pecially where regular stock cars
have met each other in public
contest. This company offered at
the grand prize race in Savannah,
$4,000 in cash prizes. In the in
ternational light car race, which
was a part of the Savannah events,
the winning Lancia car was the
only car equipped with Continen-
tai tires, its victory being due
very largely to the entire absence
of tire changes, although the dis
lance covered at high speed was
1876 miles.
