Easy Way to Load Up
Motor AxIes With Grease

It often happens that the motorist il
in somewhat of a hurry to get a given
amount of light grease into a certain
receptacle and the process of forcing II
out through the ordinary nozzle Of the
grease gun is a bit slower than he rel
ishes.
A motorist recently discovered a very
simple, but satisfactory substitute for
ordinary methods in a case Of this sort.
The part to be fabricated was the back
axle. The cap and nozzle were removed
from the business end of the grease
gun, leaving the instrument open. A
common funnel was then thrust into
the grease hole in the axle. The open
front end of the gun was placed in the
wide end of the funnel and held firmly,
while the handle of the instrument was
screwed up in the ordinary way.
The grease shot into its appointed
place in that rear axle in a fraction the
time 1t would have taken had the regu-
lar nozzle been in place on the gun. A
rinsing with gasolene and a wiping out
with a bit of waste. removed from the
funnel all trace of its unwonted duty.

OVERLAND SERVICE
THROUGHOUT WORLD
Driver of This Car Can Always
Find Full Line of Parts at
Overland Dealers.

Automobile service is fully as i'm
portant as automobile sales in the opin-
ion Of a majority of motorists, and it
always has been the aim of the manu-
facturers to back up their cars with the
best service possible An illustration of
the extent 10 which this feature has been
developed is given in the service sys-
TEN maintained by the Overland makers.
Though the Overland manufacturers
do not maintain any branch houses or
assembling stations, il has established a
service system that is unsurpassed in
the industry. The secret of the sue
cess OF Overland service is that every
dealer or distributors contract with the
company contains an iron-clad agreement
providing that a generous supply of
parts be maintained. In this way a
fully equipped and stocked Overland
service station can be found in every viii
lage, town or city where Overland cars
are sold, and there are nearly 5000
Overland distributors and dealers in the
world.
Should the purchaser Of an Overland
meet with an accident that would re-
suit in a wrecked vehicle he would find,
by calling at the nearest dealer, whether
the latter be the one from whom he
bought the machine, or one a thousand
miles away. that there is a complete
line Of parts on hand ready for his use

EXPLAINS ORIGIN OF
TERM STREAMING"
Hudson Manager Tells How 1t
Came to Be Applied to Type
of Automobile Body.

Streamline is the dominating word in
motor car bodies this year. Every au-
tomobile owner or prospective owner
knows the appearance of the streamiine
the long, sloping hood. the absence Of
design. He is more or less familiar with
angles at the dash, the gradual sweeping
curves that blend harmoniously from
radiator cap to tail light. All know the
grace of the long line. the smooth, un-
broken surfaces, the attractive contour
of the entire car.
But not many know Of the origin Of
the design, or the reason for the use Of
the word streamline: Howard g.
Kneessi, manager of the Hudson Auto
mobile Company, tells an interesting
story of the use of the term.
It seems that the design originated in
Germany, where II is sometimes called
the Prince Henry style. The designer
Of the first long-lined. smoothly-fiow-
ing contour was struck by the remark
able similarity Of his design to the wa
ter-line OF a yacht-the same easy en-
trance. or beginning, the same un-
broken curves, the same bold yet sweep
ing finish of the rear. Sprinkle some
sawdust or other light material on a
uujetly flowing stream of water It Will
gradually form In the center Of the
stream a long. graceful line. with al
smoothness of the water line of the
yacht Hence the name that indicates
smoothly-fiowing, mathematically accu-
rate lines and surfaces-the true stream
line.
The streamIIne body cuts the air as
the yacht cuts the water. There is small
resistance. little disturbance of air,
lessened raising Of dust. And just as
the yacht with well designed lines leaves
little wake. creates little swell. so the
ill., r1N 1TT. Ia
road and through the air, quietly,
smoothly, gracefully. 1t drags less air
and dust behind IL, it adds to speed. re-
duces fuel consumption. and is infinitely
more comfortable to ride in than a car
that creates a tremendous air current
and pulls the dust of the road into the
tonneau, to the annoyance Of its occu-
pants.

Wel-known Automobile Man
Becomes Connected With
the Commercial Company.

The latest addition to the sales force

lene engine construction.
In 1905 Hough again was Transferred
to Washington as manager Of the Pope
branch. and when the branch was dis
continued he organized the Pope Auto

Pope line OF motor cars. Two years
later he sold his interest In the COM

given at least cursory attention. The
car should receive a thorough lubrica-

cups have been well turned down be-
fore the start, and then thoroughly
filled. 50 that at the first night stop
II will not be necessary to refill them.
See that there is sufficient lubricant In
the gearbox and in the differential. Fur
ther ascertain IL the front wheels and

II the universal joints are packed In

fore the start Lubrication Of the vari-
GUS parts Is most essential, and al
though the driver devotes the majority
Of his attention to motor fabrication,
II Is equally essential that all the other
parts receive attention.
1t will pay the driver to spend sew
eral hours carefully going over his car
before the start Of the tour, to ascer-
tain IL all spring clip bolts are tight
and properly cotter pinned; to see that
there are no broken spring leaves; to
see that he has rubber buffers for re-
bound straps of some nature fitted: to
see that ali of the accessories are tight
and in good condition, and in general
to see that the car Is in the best road

Spark Plug Adjustment
For Magnetic Troubles

Spark plug adjustment will clear up
magnetic troubles nine times out OF ten.
II the points on the plugs are adjusted
right, the gap will be such that the
current can readily jump the gaps and
ignite the charge. Often the car will
run all right on the battery, and yet
when switched onto the magnetic there
is trouble, and the blame is laid on 10
the magnetic, when a mere changing Of
the spark plug gaps is all that is
needed
Some magnetic manufacturers provide
fine gauge for spark plug gaps, while
Others advise a gap varying from cne-
fortieth TO a sixty-fourth of an inch.
Many use a worn thin 10-ceflt piece SIS
q gauge. but the best way Is to expert
ment around these figures until the
proper gap has been effected, and then
always keep the gaps at this figure. II
Is important. however. to make sure
that the gap on all four plugs Is Gni-
form. otherwise the motor win work
with jerk.

Soap Cleans Leather;
GasoIene Harmful

The well-known cleansing properties
of gasolcne make the temptation to
employ IL for cleaning the leather OF
the upholstering of an automobile a
strong one; but gasolene has the un-
fortunate effect of dissolving the en-.
amel on the leather, SO that the finish
Is removed along with the dirt
According TO one who knows. nothing
is better than white CASTLE soap and
warm water as the best cleansing
agents for leather of the kind used
for automobile seats, and the washing
and drying should be followed by a
rubbing with soft cloth sprfnkled with
few drops of olive oil, the last YES
tige of which should be removed with
Q dry, soft cloth.

Hint As to Remedy
For Loss>of Power

when there Is loss Of power and yet
the engine is firing regularly, but weak.
look for loss Of compression at either
valves or spark plugs" says a spark
piCg manufacturer. "Of course, this
may also be due to the. trembler on the
coil Vibrating too slowly, and this can
be 'ohyiated by reedtusting and trim
ming the platinum points. Then, again.
1t may be due to too rich a mixture or
flooding of. the caTbsretter. Sometimes
the extra air valve on the carburetter
refuses to work. and again II may be
weak springs on the inlet valves tba
life of the exhaust may be reduced, or

Be Sure That Patch
Fully Covers Lesion

When applying a blowout patch to a
torn casing. care must be taken to see
that the patch completely covers the
lesion. with a good margin Of overlap
all around.
TO insure the patch remaining in place
after the tube has been inserted and
inflated. good scheme is to apply the
former to the tube, rather than to the
casing, after partially innatng IL. and
tc secure II In place BY means of A
piece of light string.
The patch will then STAY with, the
tube. and II properly laid into the casing
viii work perfectly. The string may
break when imitation Is completed. but
II light enough will not chafe the tube.
Rubberized or cemented patches, of
course. require no such precaution.

AUTOMOBILE TIRES :
REQUIRE MUCH CARE
Fact Is Often Overlooked BY
Car Owners, and Short Life
of the Tire Results.

An automobile tire is pretty nearly
human In one respect. It requires care
to make its life long, and care that II
may perform its functions up to the
standard Of its creation.
That is often entirely overlooked by
the owner of the car, and this negli-
gence is certain to hasten the tire break
down.
Any tire is subject to more or less
abuse, owing to the fact that 1t must
encounter all kinds Of roads and re-
ceive little or no consideration from the
driver. Cuts, stone bruises, mud blis-
ters, etc., result, and II these are neg
lected they eventually spell out the de-
struction of the tire as dissipation does
the man.
Road Conditions Play Part.
Tire neglect runs bill up unbelievably.
There are many more things for the
drivers to consider than the mere driv-
Ing of the car. Road conditions play an
important part in the life OF tires. In
fation. distribution Of the weight Of the
machine, and alignment of the wheels
are also influential. No two tires In q
set may give the same service. although
their quality. workmanship, and con-
strnction may be identical. One may
give out far t@fore its time. There is
a reason for ais. Do not blame the
place the blame where It belongs.
The service and mileage Of tire
depend as much on the conditions un-
der which IL IL used as upon the quality
Possibly three-fourths of the tires
returned to the manufacturers for re-
pairs have been ridden insufficiently
inflated. insufficient initiation IL re-
sponsible to a greater extent than per-
haps anything else for blowouts and
quick disintegration.
Don't Initiate By Guess.
When a tire is imperfectly inflated
the walls are continually bending back
and forth as the car moves. with the
same result as when a wire or piece
of metal Is bent back and forth In the
hands Heat Is engendered In the
threads and because Of this heat. and
the continued bending, the walls soon
weaken and give way. In short time
they are not strong enough to support
the air pressure multiplied by tne
weight Of the car and blowouts result
Not only that, but when tire becomes
loose. lump or fold of rubber and fab
ric is formed just in front of the part in
contact with the ground. This is what
tire makers call linking This tends
to separate the plies of fabric, or in ag-
gravated cases to chew up the walls OF
the tire. as well as that portion OF the
tube that happens to get caught.
Don't initiate your tires by guess. A
big. thick-walled tire win show little
depression under a heavy load. even
though the air pressure IL too low for
safety. One can not tell from appear
ances whether or not the tires are per-
fectly inflated. A good gauge should
be used and tires tested every day.

Blow Out Air Pump
Before Filling Tire

Because tire pumps invariably are
carried beneath the tonneau seat and
also because dust and dirt are certain
to lodge there, it is a wise precaution
to blow OUT the pump once or twice
before the hose is connected to the tire
valve. In this way the possibility Of
forcing dirt into the tire will be
avoided.
