Dodge Now Have
A Commercial Car

Dodge Brothers dealers in the United
states and Canada are beginning to
receive their first consignments of
the Dodge Brothers commercial car.
The mechanical features Of the
Dodge touring car proved well adapted
to use for light commercial work, so
the specifications are similar to those
Of the standard touring car, except FOR
several details in which consideration
Is given the necessity for handling a
much greater load. Among the de-
tails referred to are 33 by 4 tires.
heavier springs, steering post set at
higher angle and gasolene tank under
the drivers seat.
The body is of pressed steel, with a
black enamel finish similar to the fin
lsh Of the standard touring car. For
Enclosure Of the car there is A get Of
substantial oiled duck curtains for
both sides and rear Of the drivers seat.
AS well as Tor the sides and rear of the
body. The drivers seat and back are
upholstered in genuine leather. The
wire screens OF the body arc remov-
able.
The commercial car is practically a
duplicate of the car which Dodge Bros.
have been delivering to the government
in large quantities for several months

How to Keep Automobile Finishes
Bright Despite Winter Exposure

Keeping the car comfortable is not
the only winter problem. How to pre-
serve its finish despite winters attack
is important "The car owner must
care during freezing and ,hawing
weather." says {. l.. Hedges. the
Haynes service manager. who adds:
THE paint of car is composed of
three principal parts. First, the foun-
dation or printing coats; second. the
color, and. third, the protective coat.
The protective coat is heavy, hard
coat of transparent varnish which pro-
tects the softer coloring base from the
inroads Of the weather. II this protec-
tive coat is kept firm, the color coats
will hold their original brilliancy.
"Never try to wash the car out in the
cold. Take il in where IL is moderately
warm. Then use clear. cold water. The
cold water will have a tendency 10
harden the varnish on a new car, there
by preventing abrasion. II you use
any soap at all. use only a limited
amount, as free acid or alkali tends to
soften the finish. Soak the mud thor
oughly with small stream Of water
until mud runs OF. Don't rub the mud
of. II mud has frozen TO the fnish,
keep on applying cold water until It
runs away. Never use hot water. In
drying the car avoid using a chamois
that contains any sand or grit. II pol
ish is necessary, use n good grade. then
rub of the surplus.

Maxwell Truck
Sets a Record

Maxwell has been making some econ
omy tests with trucks and has attained
seventeen and eight-tenths miles on
one gallon of gasolene with "A one-ton
truck, loaded, driven in traffic in De,
troit and over rural roads adjacent to
the city.
Two features OF the economy test
made the Maxwell accomplishment es.
pecially good-the- driver had never be-
fore driven a truck and the road used
did not allow OF any coasting 10 in
crease the mileage. An average speed
Of about fifteen miles was maintained.
The test was officially observed by
three disinterested persons. They were

"The Detroit News" and local repre-
sentative Of the American Automobile
Association; &. G.. Stcinhauer, auto

and T.. w. Sullivan. assistant secretary
Of the Detroit Automobile Club.
Before making the run the truck was
loaded with Maxwell touring car
weighing 1910 pounds, the driver
weighed 210 pounds and Mr.. Sullivan

Among windshield cleaners the form
CT article illustrated one OF the most
effective types, one with a vertical
squeegee. held tight on the glass by
roller at the back Of the glass. This
is better than one that swings and
clears an arc, but the swinging type
has an advantage in that it permits a
tight closing of the two.inch gap under
the visor of the top and between 1t
and the windshield. This point is a
fayorite entry port for snow and rain,
TO say nothing OF cold, and enough
dampness can get in there III five
minutes to ruin woman's fine CO.'S
tune. The gap should be sealed tight
and can be easily closed with strip
Of fabric leather tackled TO the front
frame of the top and fitted on the
other edge at intervals with spring
clamps such as auto top makers use for
holding curtains to the round bars Of
frames. These clamps are about three
inches long each aud spring readily
over a windshield frame, thereby
stretching the strip of cloth over the
gap.
With the top closed in in this
fashion and rubber strip inserted in
the windshield opening and the for
ward curtains of the car extended at
points so that no large opening for
snow or rain shows around the wind
shield one can drive into anv kind Of
storm with practically the same Sc
curity the man IN = sedan feels.
The electric primer devices recon-
mended have to be studied out electri-
cally for each make Of car. because
when they are in use one side Of the
battery is connected TO all the metal
work of the car. IN the writer's case
this prevents the horn being blown, so
he has introduced a switch between
the battery and the car framework.
One writer says he is using such an
electric primer with dry cells and
gets good results. Another is using
such a primer on a gasolene engine
in the Canadian logging woods. He
bought storage battery for the sole
purpose of using it. physician
writes from Schenectady:
"Since using heating primer
don't have to keep ether for my car
as we'll as for my patients. The ether
was costing me more each winter than
the entire cost of the primer
A Cadillac user said former Cadil-
lac Of his had had an electric warming
device around the carburetor and he
missed it on his present car.
The last word on electric primers
came from man who feels bitterly
about the kerosene stuff now sold "a
gasolene. He writes:
For motordom's sake. don't let the
gas men know about these heating
primers. As soon as they find out there
is device for vaporizing a cold low
grade fuel they will cut down the quail
ity few moro notches. The only thing
that keeps gas up to its present grade
is the impossibility Of igniting any
thing worse in winter

types of twin motors) could not have a
dual set Of exhaust gas heaters. From
owners of "A Ford and Of Packard
Twin Six come statements that they
are successfully using foot warmers in
the front compartment, as well as in
the tonneau. In each case single eX-
haust furnishes the heat. In .llustrat
ing the previous article two cuts show
ing different types Of foot warmers
were prepared, but only one was print
cd, and it did not correspond with the
text. The other cut, printed here,
shows another type of heater and the
one the writer uses. This or the round
bar type of heater can be installed i'm
an hour by all owner or mechanic,
while the type formerly illustrated in
wolves much cutting away OF carpet an"
footboards. The fiat type can be left
in the car all summer without getting
in the way. In all types the feet rest
on them, and with lap robes over them
making sort Of tent the amount OF
heat that is retained is surprising On
the drivers side of the front compar,-
ment of an open car the only effective
heater is one on which the foot can be
pressed, unless the driver uses one Of
the specially made drivers robes. In
that case a radiation type of heater is
not effective.
One woman driver writes that the
leather OF her shoe was burned by an
old style exhaust gas heater several
years ago, but that she has found the
modern heaters are arranged TO pre-
vent that. This is. however. not true
of all types ard buyer should watch
out for heaters that arc not protected
against overheating

Silver Tells How
Autos Help in War

c. T. Silver has something to say
about auto curtailment:
"Unofficially. the question seems to
have been pretty well disposed Of he
asserts. gully 50 and often a greater
per cent Of car owners interviewed by
manufacturers and distributors declare
their cars indispensable TO the eXpedi-
tious conduct OF affairs.
"And, after all. is not expedition the
most essential thing in America right
now? II we are going to 'arm to the
teeth in the quickest time ever known
and pay out, to carry on the war, more
money per capita than was ever con-
tributed by any nation, does it not fol-
low that the greatest efficiency is neces-
sary? And can there be efficiency in
this matter without expedition?
"Curtailment of automobiles means
curtailment of movement, and move
ment is certainly essential right now;
vet scmc wiseacres talk Glibly about
cutting down the supply of steel for
the manufacture Of cars. They seem
TO forget that only 5 per cent Of the
steel production OF the country is used
in automobile manufacture, Where
could that small percentage be better
employed than in serving as the means
for speeding up all other lines of en-
deavor" d.

Keeping Up
With Fast
Railroad Trains

Three hundSed miles across the State
Of Pennsylvania from Pittsburgh to
Philadelphia in the record time Of 9
hours and 28 minutes is the achieve
ment last week Of ]. VI. Eyler, Of
Pittsburgh, in a Series Franklin stock
touring car. It is the fastest time
ever recorded by an automobile between
the two cities.
The trip was the result of wager
that the distance could not be made in
less than 1912 hours. and $1,000 was
the stake Mr.. Eyler started in heavy
fog from the Pittsburgh Courthouse at
5 a. m. and at 1928 p. m. his Franklin
was parked in front of Broad Street
Station, in the Quaker city. The route
which he travelled led through many
small towns, and in both terminal cities
he had to pass through many miles Of
downtown sections, which, in the case
Of Philadelphia, was severe handicap
because of his arrival during a heavy
traffic hour. Only two stops were made
during the whole trip. one at Susque-
hanna Bridge, Columbia, Penn, where
there was fifteen-minute delay, and a
short stop for gasolene.
Regardless of the high speed at which
the car was driven-thirty-one miles an
hour-only fourteen gallons and half
of gasolene were consumed, which is
better than twenty and two-third miles
TO the gallon.
Not content with once beating the
stipulated time in the bet, Mr.. Eyler
decided to repeat the performance, so
after one hour and half spent in
Philadelphia he drove back to Pitts
burgh the same day, covering in all 500
miles in 10 hours and So minutes, with
a total gssolene consumption of TWEEN
ty-seven and one-half gallons for the
round trip, an average of 21.8 miles a
gallon. Not stop was made for tire
or engine trouble during the whole trip.
When it is considered that Mr.. Eyler
is ffty-fvc years old and drove the re-
turn trip almost all after dark, his rec
ord of nearly twenty hours of almost
steady driving is remarkable.
The previous oneway record over
this route is said to have been 9 hours
and IS minutes.
