'AUroMoB1LE ovERHAULING.

During this month the wise motor- isst is making ready for an enjoyable spring and summer season of auto nobiling according to George H. Peck Of the Peck & Lines Go, distributors for the Haynes Altomobdle company in this territory, who made the fol- lowing statement in regard to wheth- CT or not a car should be overloaded every season:
 There is now and always has been, considerable question aa to whether or not car should be overhauled once a season. Tn this as in innu- merable other automobile problems the owner or driver must himself be the judge. If the car has travelled 8 great number of miles over bad roads during the preceding season there is no question but that it should receive attention. On the other hand, if it has been driven carefully and only a lew hours a day, this procedure may not be necessary; in fact, a, good ear operated under such conditions will run indefinitely with but very little attention.
 Tn allkg cases however, the car should be carefully inspected at reg uIar Intervals; the motor should be tested for compression. all wiring and electrical connections be examine d :; the carburetor and strainer should be
