fabrication Troubles.

One of the most vital requirements about an automobile is adequate lub- rlcatiOn, and this includes not only the engine and transmission, but nu- merous other points where friction ex- ists. IL has long been appreciated that the old splash system was both crude and inadequate for the engine, and serious efforts are being made to per
 feet systems of automatic fabrication that will save the engine from the dis asters that result from either the neg lect or the ignorance Of the non-me- chanical user. But there are innuner- able little spots around the controlling levers, brake rigging, springs, and what not that depend for their lubri- cation on q varied assortment of oil and grease cups that are carefully tucked away in unsuspected corners, where they escape discovery for months, and frequently are never found.
