DRIVEWAY" DELIVERY
REALLY HELPS NEW CARS

Automobiles are being driven over
the roads to their destinations by the
thousands. on far greater scale than
ever before. and Il is being demon
strated that this method Of delivery is
In reality a great benefit to the actual
buyer. Cars in the hands OF expert
enCed men between factory and desti-
nation. according 10 F. C.Morse. Of the
Chalmers Motor company, receive no
rough treatment and are nicely broken
in BY their trips We have sent many
hundreds OF cars for long Journeys by
road said Mr.. Morse recently. 'and
we have yet to hear a complaint On
the other hand. our Chicago dealer has
asked to have all his cars delivered
over the road. No fast driving is coun-
tenanced. The cars travel AZ a uniform
gait Each car reaches the dealer n
fine shape and Is handed over to the
purchaser in condition for steady. hard
driving. I believe that this feature o.
the present situation has been over

LOUVRE HAS REAL USE
AND IS NOT DECORATION

IN the mind OF more than one man
who owns and drives his own motor
car, the Sits cut in the sides OF the
metal hood are purely a fad OF the au-
tomoblle designer, and excuse their ex-
istence by making a rakish looking
bonnet Judging from externals. It
might seem that this is the case IN a
number OF automobiles, the hood
openings. or louvres. have either lost
caste completely, or have been so re-
duced in number as to lose any hint
OF significance.
The louvre. nevertheless, Il rather
an important factor IN keeping the mo-
tor temperature at a point that permits
the car to operate at its greatest eff
cheney The air that has warmed IN
passing over the engine finds It's exit
TO the outer atmosphere through these
openings. and in this way opens a path
FOR constant stream of fresh, cool air
above the working parts.
The absence or louvres. or the pres
snce OF only q limited number, means
a back pressure OF warm air on the
radiator fan. On the contrary, II fol-
lows that the greater number OF lou
vres- the greater will be the velocity
OF the unwarmed air flowing under the
bonnet. In the Haynes there are It
hood openings which help keep the mo-
tor n top notch working condition.

TEST OIL YOURSELF;
HERE IS The METHOD

Automobiles are generally recoE-
nizing the need Of good lubricants for
engine oils" said L. c. Voyles, service
manager of Nordylze & MarmOn COM
pany-
There are two ways to test oil. One
Is gradually 70 heat a bottle Of oil IN
til a yellow vapor arises on the surface,
maintain this heat about Is minutes.
then let the oil stand about - hours. II
the oil is Of good quality II will only
turn little darker than originally. but
il it is not Of good quality it will turn
black and certain amount OF black
sediment will be seen. This is exactly
what happens II such oil is used in the
engine.
Another test Is to take an equal
quantity OF OIL and water and shake
them together in a bottle for about 81
minutes. After standing for - hours
the good oil win rise to the top OF the
water, showing a clear line II separa-
ton A poor oil will have a consider
able strip OF white fluid between the
oil and the water. and II the oil IS q
a poor grade most OF the fluid will be-
come this whitish substance This test
is important. because q slight amount
of water might become mixed with any
oil and the oil should be of good eno-gh
quality 70 prevent serious damage I'M

July IA will be observed by Mis-

in accordance with plans worked out
here by Miss Jane Evans Of Melrose
and a number of Missoula women.
The French celebrate on July IA the
anniversary of the fall Of the Bastile
in 1883. during the revolution. 1t Ia
observed as IA democratic day of tri-
umph. and the women who are hoping
to win aid for the children Of French
soldiers slain in the present war be-
lieve it an appropriate occasion for
their appeal.
Tags will be sold by an army Of
women and girls on the day set apart
for the war orphanss. The tags will
sell for 10 cents, and the proceeds will
be turned over to the National War
Orphans association of France.
Miss Evans has been appointed
chairman for Montana in this work,
and she has enlisted the aid Of a num-
Der of Missoula women. She hopes to
organize the work in every city in the
state. SO that Montana's response to
the need of thousands of French chill
| dren may be generous.
| The money is to be used in the edu-
| cation and care Of poor children left
| fatherless by the war. The French
army is not made up Of single men
but of all men, and the suffering
caused by the terrible losses on the
front has been widespread.
