MEN JUDGED BY THE.
CARS THEY DRIVE NOW

Motor cars are common now. 1t is no
special mark of distinction to own
one. Rather that man is conspicuous
who is not an automobile owner, if
he happens to be man of any conse-
quence at all.
He attracts attention as one who is
out of tune with the times, as an &C.
centric. People don't understand him
and his point of view, and he finds it
necessary to explain to his friends
how it happens that he depends upon
street cars Tor other peoples motor
cars) and has no machine of his own.
Many man has bought an automo-
bile rather than submit himself to the
constant humiliation of confessing
that he does not own one. And this
goes to show US how strong is public
opinion.
Public opinion is quick to sense new
times and to bestow its approval upon
whatever outranks the old. Public
opinion goes hand in hand with pro-
gress. The motor car found early
commentator, and men gained dis
tinction simply by driving the new
style vehicle. 1t was something to
be a motor car owner.
But when motor cars grew common
that distinction was withdrawn, for
motor car owners became as numer-
Gus as telephone subscribers, and
certainly no man deserves mark of
credit merely because he has tele-
phone in his home.
Therefore to gain distinction today
as the owner of motor car requires
something new and fresh, something
beyond the mere possession of COM
monplace vehicle. Also it requires
something different, unusual, unique
for no distinction can ever be granted
where all things are at par. 1t is
the margin of difference that brings
one man to our attention and permits
another man to pass unnoticed. AND
that margin of difference must be q
/ favorable one.
So in these latter times, when city
streets are filled to overlooking with
motor cars of monotonous similarity
there remains just one favorable mar.
gin of difference. You have observed
it, the public have observed it, anc
public opinion commends it.
We mean that car whose name
stands for mechanical superiority
whose coach structure is a delight tc
I the artistic eye and whose finishing
colors express wholesome taste on the
part of the owner who selected them

Uses Kerosene to Propel Auto

to and when gasoline began to soar he
looked around for means of lower
ing the cost of operating his automo-

An ordinary dent in fender may
be removed by the following method
Place paper or cloth between the out
side block and the fender to prevent
injuring the enamel, then after plac-
ing the other block in position, strike
them with hammer or mallet until
the dents have been removed. In the
case of very bad dent it is well to
heat the inner surface slightly with
blow torch, as it will soften the
enamel and prevent it from cracking.
Care should be taken not to heat this
surface hot enough to burn the ena-
mel.
