PAIGE STOCK CAR MAKES
FINE SHOWING IN RACES

Howling along at a steady. unvary-
ing speed OF eighty miles an hour, "a
Paige car, "SIx-51" stock chassis,
covered thirty miles in 22 minutes
and seconds in the Cincinnati races
Memorial day and thus scored a dis
tinct achievement that its sponsors
regard as significant.
The event was the thirty mile inVi-
iation race open to stock cars, there
being no restrictions as to motor size
The regular Paige 81" model chassis
was used. There was no enlargement
of the motor, 10 enlargement OF the
valves. and the crankshaft ana cam
shaft were the same as those en-
ploVed in all Isl" models.
The gear ratio on the rear axle was
changed for greater speed, which is
an alteration that can easily be made
for any purchaser and. therefore, not
a vital departure from the regular
stock model. The only other changes
were OF "A similar nature. such as the
addition Of "A magnetic for ignition
additional oiling facilities and the
tightening OF the piston and connect
ing rods.
The Paige did not stop at the pit at
any time, and in n field Of four OF the
best-kuOwn cars finished second. In
view OF the conditions that prevailed
and the open nature OF the race the
Paige officials are vastly proud of the
showing of their car.

at fault, loosoning the adjusting bolts
IS the remedy.
If the clutch Is Of the leather
faced cone type, and the spring ten
sion IL all right, then the leather has
/ probably become dry and hard, and
the r"medy Is to treat the leather
with NeatsfoOt oil, which will soften
IT, TO do this IL Is not always neces-
sarv 10 take out the clutch ms II can
be dono by pressing down the clutch
pedal and then holding 1t down by
placing stick between II and the
front board OF the drivers seat The
Neatsfoot oil can then be smeared on
the leather with Il piece Of n hack
saw blade. The clutch should be
held back over night, so as to give
the oil an opportunity to soak into
the leather
II the clutch Is Of the dry plate
disc type. the remedy for gripping,
when the springs are all right, IL the
same as for slipping, namely the
washing with Kerosene
If the clutch Is wet plate. then
some oil should be poured into the
housing so rs to make the proportion
or oil to kerosene greater.
We find that clutch troubles are
due either to the adjustment Of the
springs or to the cunditio OF the
friction surfaces. The question arises
as TO how TO determine which is the
one to blame. The only way to deter
mine this is by trial. altho o->S's
judgment can be used as "A guide.
Thus when the trouble Is found in u
new car, or one which has lust left
the repair shop after work has been
done on the clutch II is reasonable
TO assume that the springs are at
fault. ON the other hand. If the ear
hns been running well for some time
ana the trouble gradually develops,
II ~ natural TO assume that the fault
Is with the clutch facings.
The Dragging Clutch.
Py dragging ciutch Is meant that
II Is not entirely disengaPed when the
pedal Is pressed down AZ tar as II will
go. The dragging may be due to dirt.
but IL often duo to the throw OF the
clutch rcinE too little In most cars

MARMON "a REDUCES WEIGHT
Economy of Operation Obtained by
Scientific Construction of Car.

The economy Of automobile opera
tion obtained by scientific construc-
ton of the Marmon 81 is making a
wide appeal to the buyers of high
class luxury automobiles. The elimi-
nation Of more than half a ton from
the weight of the Marmon, much Of
the weight being saved on the un-
sprung parts of the car where weight
is said by automobile engineers to be
nine times as destructive and eX-
pensive as when sprung, Is one of the
principal engineering accomplishments
in producing the Marmon.
Motorists who have tested the com
fort in riding and the economy in
operation obtained by the lightness
and correct distribution of weight in
the MarmOn say that this is one of the
most interesting motor car develop

AUTO TO SUPPLEMENT
RAILROADS DURING WAR
Motor Vehicles Thot to Be

THE automobile is soon TO have the
chance OF it's lifetime to demonstrate
its ability and forever put an end to
the question as to whether 1t IL
necessity. And 1t Is going to make
good" Such Is the opinion OF the To-
cal dealer in Oldsmobiles. 1T Is all
coming about in a most exceptlonal
and unexpected manner and the wind
up is going to immcasurably Increase
the reliance and dependence that Is
being placed on the automobile more
and more every day.
The instructions recently issued by
the special war board in control OF
the operations of railroads in the
United States while on war basis or
ders a general reduction of train serv-
Ice that equipment may be available
for war purposes. The railroads are
told to consolidate thru trains. reduce
the number of trains (both freight and
passenger). especially on branch lines.
and to use mixed trains for freight and
passengers where possible.
Automobile the solution.
"While there will no doubt be a gen.
eral curtailment of passenger service.
patrons Of the main or trunk lines will
find plenty OF other thru trains avail
able to carry them anywhere and with
out great loss of time, but on the
branch lines and on the non -competi-
tive lines where facilities are always
held down to the minimum it IL going
to work II real inconvenience and pos
sible hardship. Spurred on by grim
necessity, travellers. and particularly
travelling statesmen, are going to work
out some solution, and that solution
Is going to be the automobile.
More and more will IL be relied on
for transportation and 1t will be
