AUTO DEFIES INCLINE.
Overland Probably First Car to
Reach Arizona "Hole-in-the-Rock."

What is declared to be the most stren-
uous hill climbing feat ever performed
by a motor car in the southwest Is a
trip made by an Overland model 81
touring car to the Hole lin n-the-Rock,
near Phoenix, Ariz.
In lieu of a road up the steep cliff, the
car was forced to push its way up an
incline of 80 per cent over loose
gravel trail. There were two bad turns
with the path on the bare face of the
cliff. This necessitated slowing down
to a speed little faster than walk.
eliminating any advantage which might
have been gained from a flying start.
Consequently the car was forced to
make the climb entirely on Its own
pulling power.
The "Hole-in -the-Rock" has always
been said to be inaccessible for We
hicles. So far as is known. the Over
land is the only motor car which ever
successfully negotiated the climb.
A remarkable feature of the test Is
that the car was equipped with smooth
tread tires and no chains were used.

HARM NEW AUTO ENGINES.
Drivers Doing Stunts" in First 200
Miles Cause Later Troubles.

A majority of new drivers, and sur
prisingly large percentage of seasoned
motorists. will do more to harm a new
automobile engine in the first 200 miles
of driving than in the following 1000
miles. according to Claude S. Briggs.
president of the Briggs Detroiter Com
pany.
mo matter how carefully an engine
may be built said Mr.. Briggs, 'it re-
qures certain amount of running to get
the parts thoroughly worked in, and the
treatment given the motor during it's first
200 miles of driving governs. to large
extent, its future service.
There is a strong temptation, that even
seasoned motorists succumb to. to attempt
a good many stunts during the first two
or three days driving. that will be sell
dom repeated throughout a season. The
man who buys new car is generally as
eager to see what she will do as is a
youngster to take a watch apart to find
out what makes it tick.
About the first thing tested is the
speed of the car. and on nice. level
piece of road the throttle is opened up

is the next thing in order. or perhaps 1t
is long trip with a full load of pas
sengers during which the new motor is
subjected to as many tests as the driver
can think of.
The strains to which the working parts
are put while they are still green too
frequently result in overheating. with the
attendant train of troubles that material
ly shorten the service given by the motor
and make the maintenance and operating
cost much greater than it need be-
If motorists would learn to restrict
themselves to speed of fifteen or eigh-
teen miles an hour for the first two or
three hundred miles and see to it that
plenty of the right kind of lubricant is
used they would find that the precaution
would return dividends later on in better
I and cheaper service

Decision Bars Damages.

That damages caused by joy riders to
an insured car cannot be collected by
the insured unless the joy riders are
aPprehended and punished for theft
is the remarkable decision of the ap-
pellate court of the state of Indiana
The decision in it's sweeping compre-
hensiveness impairs a large number
of the contracts entered into with in
surance companies, at least in SO far
as the motorists and their chances OF
collecting damages are concerned.

French Buy Trucks Here.

The French government. which some
six weeks ago purchased LAO motor
trucks from four American companies.
has made another purchase from two
American firms. Both orders were
practically duplicate Of the previous
ones. This last order makes grand
total of 2.64O American trucks sold to
date to the French government as the
result of the present war.

Means Of Stopping Squeaks.

Annoying squeaks, such as frequent
ly develop with certain types of de-
mountain rim, often may be remedied
by securing new set Of wedges or
lugs for holding the rim in place. In
cases where the wedges are not so
worn that one or two cannot be drawn
up perfectly tight, It IL possible that
the rim itself may be slightly out of
round. SO that 1t does not fit the wheel
properly. In such a case 1t may be ad-
visable to discard 1t for a new one.
