AUTOS ARE POPULAR
AS CHRISTMAS GIFTS
More Than 1000 Studebakers We're
Delivered to Surprised Fami-
lies Yesterday.

Motor cars have figured as Christmas
gifts in far greater numbers this year
than ever before. according to advices
that have reached the Studebaker Cor
poration.
Many dealers have reported that pur-
chasers specified Christmas morning de-
liveries for their new cars. In most cases
the heads of the household kept the
nature of their presentation a total secret
and took their families by surprise.
Judging from the number of Stude-
bakers presented as Christmas gifts, the
motor car is becoming more widely recog-
nized than ever before as an ideal express
sion of the Christmas spirit.
Close to 1000 Studebaker automobiles
were ordered during the month of De-
cember. with Christmas morning delivery
requested in each case.
The purchase of an automobile as a
Christmas gift is directly In keeping with
the new Christmas spirit" says L. J.
Ollior, vice president and director OF
sales OF the Studebaker Corporation.
This new spirit is that of making Christ
mas last all the year round instead OF
only one day. nd selecting gifts accord
ingly.
The automobile has come to he con-
sidered the most sensible gift of all, be-
cause the enjoyment and comfort and
independence it gives are not confined to
one day but rather to a number of
years.
Every one likes to make each years
gift to the family better one than that
of the previous year. The possession OF
a motor car is the aim and ambition OF
everybody in this country. And no time
for realizing that ambition Is quite so
appropriate as Christmas. with its op-
portunity for all of us TO get beyond
ourselves and to spread cheer and every
other benefit to Others

Hints for the Car Owner

Anything that tends to push a valve
TO one side or lift II by applying force
in any way except centrally Is liable
to cause unequal and abnormal wear
of both stem and seating. For this rea-
son the end of the stem and the top of
the litter tappet should be true ana
square and make perfectly even con-
tact. which cannot be done II either
is unevenly worn.
Nearly 100000 automobiles have
been sold in the United States since
1902. when the business may be said
really to have begun. The number of
these machines that have gone to the
scrap heap is yet negligible for
commercial reckoning. The oldest is
only twelve or thirteen years old.
Steering gear rods should not be al
lowed TO have rattling connections.
Where ball and socket is used to
make connection the face of the cap
may be filed down little to bring
the parts snugly together. and steel
split washer under the heads of the
retaining bolts will give a firm yet
elastic pressure that will make the
connection remain snug.
When an anti-freeze solution. con-
wood alcohol and water. has been
changed by evaporation. IL is the al
cohol that first disappears. Under
these conditions the only way to re-
store proper quality to the mixture Is
to empty the solution out and add to
II mixture OF one-third water and
o-thirds wood alcohol. until the spe-
cific gravity is 100. which is proper

retain the pin in place II is not best
to bend the points down fiat to the
nut. a slight bend will give better
service.

Franks death sentence to life imprisonm contemplate acts of vio- Ience against the governor tomorrow, resulted in extensive precautionary measures on the part of state. county md city officials tonight.
 Mayor Woodward ordered all near-beer saloons closed throughout Saturday and also directed that large number of spe- cia policemen be held in readiness for possible disorder. County officials have taken steps to reinforce the constabulary.
 Governor Slaton's proclamation creating a military zone surrounding his country estate still was in effect tonight. 80 militia men patroling the place.

 The Marietta committee also caused to be circulated among the residents an ap- peal for the preservation of order. The circular called attention to the fact that certain of the Jewish merchants of that place had been made the object of threats consisting chiefly of notices posted by unknown persons upon the doors of some of the Marietta stores, warning the pro- pretors to leave town by Saturoay n:gnt or take the consequences.
 Despite these notices prominent resi- dents of Marietta said tonight there was little racial prejudice there because oi the Frank case, and that they did not anticipate serious trouble. The request to the mayor. they explained. was merely a measure of precaution.
