EXERCISE GREAT CARE

Motor car owners who exercise the

skin" of their car deserves quite as
much attention as the epidermis OF its
owner. and Is almost as sensitive 70
neglect or the use Of impure prspara-
tions. While every motorist likes to
have his car looking trim and neat the
great majority of car owners. particu-
larry those who take personal care Of
their cars, know little about the proper
way to ''bathe" a motor car. and with
what unguents to anoint its shiny sur
face so that the varnish. enamel and
leather will not crack or show seams
The best preparations to use In keep

the mud will stick hard enough to re-
