COST OF UPKEEP IS
DEPENDENT ON CAR
"Get a Good Machine and Then
Keep 1t Right" Is Advice Of
Automobile Dealer.

THE upkeep of a motor car depends
upon the car you buy and how you
treat it, says a pioneer automobile
dealer. The average man who has
never owned a motor car has an ex-
aggerated idea OF the cost of upkeep:
How many times have you heard the
expression, i can afford to buy a car,
but | could not afford to run, one. The
speaker is invariably some one who has
owned poor car or abused a good one
or has not owned any car.
'If you would minimize the upkeep,
the car must he right in the first place.
] do not mean that II must be expen-
sive. For the man with limited means,
an expensive car is out OF the ques-
tion-he cannot afford to buy 1t nor can
he afford to maintain it.
Then there is the very low-priced
car 1t Is probably worth every cent
you pay for it. but you get just what
you buy-a low-priced car.
1T is the car Of medium price that is
undoubtedly the best to buy from the
standpoint of upkeep. All you buy over
a medium price Is luxury Luxury
adds upkeep cost. II you pay less than
say H,5U or $780, there is something
lacking that ought to be In the car
and that something is probably quality
Again the cost of maintenance goes up
''The car Of medium price Is best in
the long run. Take car selling at
from $500 to $500. It is well made.
well put together; It has all the luxury
you can ask, and 1t will last n long
time. II Is built for the careful buyer.
Just as important as buying the
right car. Is treating the car right.
Take the family horse. He has been
a pet for fifteen or twenty years. and
You are still driving him. He has been
faithful and kind. II some men had
- - ha "a hAA
broken down and ugly, and few years
would have finished him. Fast driving,
too heavy loads. and lack of proper
care will do II.
Buy a good car IN the first place,
then don't abuse II. Make 1t the fam
lily pet. Learn how to take care OF
it; keep it clean. we'll fabricated, and
drive carefully. You will be surprised
how long II will serve YOU and how
little the cost of upkeep will be-"

Represent Washington in
N. B. A. Tournament.
KRAUSE AND PAGE LEAD
Twenty Thousand Dollars in
Money, Besides Special
Prizes, Are Offered.

Washington city is likely to be repre-

tournament of the National Bowling
Association in Rochester, n. Y, be-
tween the dates of. April and - At
present. plans are on foot to send two
teams to the annual bowling classic,
Palace and Colonial tenpin teams being
the probable contestants from this city.
Harry Krause and Percy Page form
the handspring behind the movement to
have the Capital represented in the Ro-
chester tournament, and it is more than
likely that the two above mentioned
teams will make the trip. A meeting OF
the tenpin association will be held one
NIGHT this week, at which plans will be
offered for having Washington repre-
sented.
The Rochester tournament will prob
ably be the greatest event of it's nature
ever held since the organization of the
n. 3. A. Sixteen Brunswick-Balke-Col
lender Company alleys with twenty-one
foot runways have been installed in
Genesee Hail. Twenty thousand dollars
in prize money will be awarded to the
wfnncrs, besides a host of special prizes
which have been provided by Rochester
merchants.
Because of the late closing of entries,
the local contingent has good chance
Of getting team together. Entries do
not close until a month from yester>
day-untfl which time, the proposition
can be properly worked up.

bowlers, who distinguished themselves

Richmond annexed ten prizes. Five

Though handicapped by q rather late
start. Carroll Institute deserves untold
credit for making the event a success.
By holding its run under the auspices Of
the A. A. L., host of athletes were
attracted from Baltimore, while some
of the best men Of the Washington field
likewise supported the event.
Bob Williams, flying the Blue and
white of the Washington Athletic As

and romped home a winner by 400 yards.

of Baltimore. trailed home fourth,
while Gotden Holland, the other repre-

crossed the finish in fifth place.
Memorial A. c., which recently held
its run under the auspices of the Dis

several men In the race, but at the last
moment were not allowed to participate
because of their standing with the A. A.

many who had hoped to see the popular
Georgetown club take part in the event.

relative positions of the contestants for
the remainder of the race. The order

With messages bright
To cheer on the day,
Then to each little poor girl
Or boy that meet,
I'll give one new penny
And one candy sweet.
I'll not worry and fret
To get big gifts-at all
And I'll tell every one
To give me something small,
