that the safeguards afforded the opera

sign during the present year, the
changes have been almost entirely of
the nature of additions of details rather
than radical redeslgn of the existing
type bodies.
The one most pronounced tendency in
body design is that, toward true stream
lines This has been in evidence for
several years, but this Is tho first year
that a car Is almost considered passe
which does not have the hood and the
dasa merge into one another without a
break. In their quest for perfect stream
line bodies large number Of engineers
have dispensed with the foredoors and
made what is termed n two door"

also fostered by the decided trend to-
ward divided front seats. Such bodies
are to be found on almost every stand
where the cars sell for more than 81. 200.

Watch the Gearcases
In Cold Weather

Grease or very heavy oil in the gear
cases at this time of the year means
noisy gears ana excessive wear. During
the cold weather gearcases packed with
grease will cause the gears to run prac-
tically without fabrication because the
grease sticks to the walls of the hous-
ing and little II any ever gets to the
gear teeth. A repairman had occasion
a few days ago to examine the differ-
entail housing and gearset Of q car
and found that the gears were rum
ming dry and had been for many weeks
because the thick oil had stuck to the
case.
However, 1t was extremely difficult on
the car I'm question to remove the diff
ferential case cover and In order to
keep the gears fabricated a little kero-
sene was poured into the housing and
In addition n pint Of cylinder oil. The
latter lubricant seems to be good for
cold weather use, as when II does
thicken 1t becomes gelatinous and not
hard. The USE Of an oil Of light body
also will show a power gain because
there is not SO much load on the gears.
The examination Of the gearset is not
difficult matter and at this time OF
the year every owner should flush the
case with kerosene and MI to level with
oil.

When Ralph G. Smith and Joseph b.

the number OF cars they have already

Some of the special CONSTITUTIONAL
features Of this new six, which has q

gears used In the floating rear axle and
the cantilever rear springs which are

improvements in the REQ tho Fifth
which make for better upholstering and
more roominess. there are such import

wheelbase from 112 to lis inches, the
use Of a new cylinder design with in

of friction surface to the disk clutch,
