OVER 100000
MILES IN LOzIER

"Tastefully frescoed with Louisiana
gumbo, Lozier car No. 1904 rolled into
Detroit a few weeks ago on its first
visit TO a Lozier factory In six years,
said Milo Bekins. the head of the
Bekins- Spears Motor company, agent
for the Lozier cars.
TN the party that accompanied the
car on it's 1900 mile trip from Baton
Rouge, La, were the owners, /. H. and
L. Gottlieb. and two friends, w. M
Evans and D. w. Raymond. All four
passengers were college boys The
trip was a 1eisure1y one.
'Lozier No. 1904 is one of the pfo-
neer skies turned out by the Lozier
company, and has done more globe
trotting than usually falls to the lot
of a dozen average touring cars. e. r.
A. Talbot of Los Angeles and New
York city, who purchased the car from
the Lozier company in 1908, is world
renowned traveller. On three OF MS
European trips No. 1904 was snpstl-
tnted for the foreign railway systems,
and upon Talbot's return to this coun-
try he contracted the habit of driving
across country between his New York
and Los Angeles homes. Although
definite figures on the cars mileage
are lacking, it is known that more
than zoo, 900 miles have been covered.
..Only one blowout was encountered
on the trip, and one of the tires cam e
through on the original air. the old
car was loaded down with nearly 1900
pounds of passenger and freight said
/. II. Gottlieb, and when you ngure
that we didn't have a new tire on the
car during the entire trip, you'll have
to hand it to us for mileage
Upon reaching Detroit the Gottiiep
boys purchased a new light SIX ana
to New York city. From
there they shipped their new Lozier

CONNECTING DRY CELLS

Dry cells should be arranged so
that the zinc binding posts are all
equidistant and where they will not
come in contact with each other or
any other metal. The bunch of cells
should then be firmly tied together
so that the connectors will not shake
loose, and after screwing the binding
post burrs down tightly they should
be fastened with a drop OF solder.
The best dry cells now have the zinc
binding posts set in so that they are
not likely to come in contact with
each other or with other metal to
short circuit and run down the cell.

PROPER WAY TO PRIME

There is best way to prime

The priming cups usually furnished
on top of the cylinders hold just the
right amount or priming fluid to do
is placed in the cylinder the mixture
may be too rich and the starting be
difficult instead of easy. With stop
cocks closed, fill the cups with a
priming fluid consisting of half gaso-
line and half ether. then open cocks
and allow the fluid to run down into
