The Regal concern produced 115 cars in
1907. and their output for 1913 will be
appropriately 1000 cars.
The story of Fred W. Haines, at the
age OF thirty-two the operating head of
one Of the most progressive automobile
companies in the country, reads like a
romance. 1t Is story Of struggle and
victory over adversely.
As youth Mr.. Ha!nes aspired TO be-
como an electrical engineer. and spent
all OF his time experimenting and delv-
ing into the science of electricity. After
his schooling was completed he started
out for himself in the electrical con-
struction business.
At this time automobiles We're in their
infancy. but Mr.. HaInes determined to
own one. Unable TO afford a machine
he built one himself-a crude vehicle
compared to the motor cars OF to-day.
Mr.. Haines determined TO excel and
he constructed another car. which was
so good that capital was speedily in
terested. and eventually the Regal Motor
Car Company was founded in the fall
OF 1870. Mr.. Haines threw his energy
and individuality into the venture. and
It was his vision and ability that gave
the world the first moderately priced 30
horsepower touring car.

safety OF the ''undershng'' principle as

marketing on a tremendous scale of the

CARE WITH BRAKES
SAVES THE EXPENSE
Autoists Should Not Lock Wheels
When stopping Machines

Putting on the brakes of an automobile
is very simple and easy operation. and
Yet it appears that only two or three
drivers in ten apply brakes properly
Stopping car without applying enough
pressure on the brakes 10 lock the wheels
is the most efficient braking method.
Brake tests have proved conclusively
that locking the wheels is not enough:
the brake must do more. When the
wheels are locked the tires slide over the
surface. A small portion of the tread
becomes smooth, and the adhesion be-
tween the tire and the street surface is
reduced Better results and shorter stops
can be made by releasing the wheels
when they begin to skid and Immediately
tightening the brakes. again bringing a
new portion of the tread into use.
In addition to reducing the efficiency
of your brakes, the sudden locking of the
wheels and holding the tire in a fixed
position against the road surface wear
away tire treads rapidly and increase tire
expenses.
