CONSIDERS SERVICE
AT TER BUYING CAR
Automobile Expected to Be Kept
Running When Turned Over
to the Purchaser.

The automobile trade has now reacn-
Ell the point where one of the most i'm
portant considerations to the buyer is
service The time has passed when a
concern can be through with a car
when turned over to the purchaser.
The man who buys a car now wants II
kept running. In other words. he wants
service" and to lose as little time as
possible in having big or little repairs
made. The difference between service
and repairs is the difference between
preventive measures and cures.
A good service system keeps the
owner in touch with men who are COM
petent to advise him as to the cordl-
ton OF his car and thus anticipate and
prevent wear and annoyance. The au-
tomobile buyer today buys more than
chassis, body, and minor equip
ment. If he is wise he buys something
behind car. The best machine Gn the
torist recognizes that without first-class
service facilities his repair bill will be
high and he will lose the use of his
car for considerable periods.
The factories have come to a realiza.
tion of this necessity and are develop
ing their parts department to aid this
service. The current advertisements
show how they ere catering to this
demand for service. For the owner to
get the proper results he must look not
only to the factory, but to the agent
in his own communicate the man from
whom he buys his car. In the last
ANALYSIS, resident service is what counts
most.
The purchaser, therefore, should find
out not only what Is in his car. but also
the facilities of the factory to supply
parts and. especially. the equipment OF
the agency to keep his car running and
running steadily, At the least expense
in time and money.

DEALER GIVES HINT
ON CLEANING CARS
Says Dust Should Not Be Wiped
Off, But Should Only Be
Removed by Washing.

"The first thing to do in cleaning
an automobile is to avoid wipinE the
dust from the body with a dry cloth
or wet one" remarked a pioneer
dealer of this city.
The days ere coming when auto
mobiles will need frequent cleaning
to keep them looking spick and span,
but the finish will remain good for a
much longer time IL the cleaning is
properly done. Weeks and weeks of
the most painstaking effort are rep
resented in the. beautiful finish of a
high-grade automobile, and a few ILL
advised cleaninCs can ruin this ef-
feet beyond repair.
Even the finest dust will scratch
the surface of the varnish and paint
that make your car look so fine; and
II is worse than foolish to attempt to
wipe off mud stains. The only proper
way to remove dust and mud fs by
weshing. A heavy stream Of water
should be the hrst course, and this
should not strike the car with great
force. 1t should be directed siantwise
against the sides of the body, and
plenty of 1t used II there is much
mud on the wheels or body il should
be allowed to soak well and soften be-
fore a sponge Is applied; and then a
constant stream Of water should flow
over the part being washed. A good
soap should be used to remove grease
or oil-never use gasolene.
"If man wants to take especial
care Of his cars appearance, 1t Is we'll
to shower the body thoroughly with
water II a trip Is to be made through
mud or rain. This will prevent spot
ting OF the varnish by mud and
water"

Motorcycle Replaces
Commuters Special

The motorcycle is becoming very
popular with the man who desires to
live In the suburbs. but whose business
necessitates his being in the heart of
the city every day. When his days
work is finished il is not necessary for
the owner of a motorcycle to waste a
half hour or more waiting for the in
frequent suburban cars. He just climbs
aboard his machine and is always
home I'm time for dinner

Motor Tire Industry
Needs Rubber Crop

Men who follow the fortunes OF the
rubber trade estimate that the auto
mobile tire industry alone today con-
sumes as much rubber as the worlds
total supply of crude rubber fifteen
years ago. Statisticians figure the
1918 rubber crop at approximately
10s,000 tons. of which nearly $4,000
tons will be consumed in factories

Goodrich
Safety
Tread
Best IN tie Short Stop

0eSS " SSsG S00Tt SC0p
This fve-fngered Goodrich
Safety Tread gives you safety all
the time.
1t is a real emergency brake
when you have to use your hub
brake in an emergency.
But the best part of it is-and
here Is where it solves the skid
problem SO simply and satisfactorily
1t is on duty all the time.
1t helps you in your steering on
the slippery, muddy, slushy, oozy
road or street.
1t makes a skid unnecessary.
1t eliminates from your mind
the otherwise constant watchful-
ness for that unexpected slip and
slide which may mean q most
dangerous accident.
You are able to enjoy your
driving, in the unconscious knowl-
edge that you are going to turn
as you want to turn, or keep going
straight along, or stop when and
tOhere you want to stop.
You might almost say the Good
rich Safety Tread works automat-
ically.
Because Of its simple, natural
design there are no sharp edges
or corners to wear off and really
make risks instead of safeguards
for you.
Because of the arrangement OF
the fingers no ooze can slip back
under your wheel-it is driven
away absolutely.
Those five thick, tough rubber
fingers are not simply on the tread.
They are Of it, made with it and the
body of the tire, and unit msldsd

Automobile Company Officials
Aim to Break Records by
100000 Cars in Year.

1t is said by the Ford Motor Company
that the greatest record in the history
of the industry was established in the
last six months by that company. the
books of which show that during the
months of October to March that COM
pany did business of approximately
$l41 0O0. CO.,
These months constitute the first half
of the company's fiscal year. When the
sun went down on March 81. the records
showed that 7s.i62 Fords had been sold
and delivered approximately 5000 more
than were sold and delivered during all
Of last year.
This astounding output Of cars swelled
the total Of Model Ts in use to the
sum Of 2A. 753. nearly a quarter of a
far the largest number of cars of
single model in existence.
Company Is Satisfied.
The company feels satisfied with its
showing for the first half of the year.
and expects that the second half will
set even a greater record.
To build 100000 Fords this year one
will have to come into existence on an
average of every forty seconds. The
big production months Of the factory
put Of loo cars per day, and from that
month on every effort will be expended
by the manufacturing force to keep up
with the sales.
Sales for the first six months Of the
year have been equally as remarkable
as the manufacture. With the factory
running to capacity the orders have
steadily mounted since the first Of the
fiscal year until now there are now
thousands of untitled orders on the COM
panys books.

BY JOHN 4. " "EIMOHE.
An announcement of no small mo-
ment to the automobile fraternity Is
made today in the advertising columns
of The Evening Mail. II is none other
than that the Il. +. Goodrich Company
has made a reduction in the prices of
Goodrich tires.
Officials Of the Goodrich Company
declare that II is reasonable to assume
that the example set by this powerful
member of the tire making industry
will be followed by the other makers
No explanation or reasons why are
given in this announcement, but. with
crude rubber selling at somewhat lower
figure than that prevailing for year
or more past, and the constant de-
visinG and application of new higher
efficiency methods of tire manufac-
ture the reduced Goodrich tire prices
are but a natural outcome and show
