II is about time for motor car man
ufacturers TO stop talking about no"
good business is going to be. loo
many such expressions Of confidence
may lead people to suspect that they
are lust talking TO keep their courage
up. Most all these manufacturers
have had their say on the subject o.
business as usual and to be better
than usual
No question of it, the uncertainty
over taxation and the oncoming OF the
war have had their effects on retail
automobile business in some sections
OF the country more than others. But
there are examples aplenty TO show
that war doesn't kill business; far
from il. The story has been told over
and over again. Let's let It 90 at that.
One automobile man said the auto
mobile people brought taxation
threats on themselves by the persist,
ent use of the phrase pleasure car

mind for long time to change TINS

tisoments but il is difficult for one
norson or ono concern TO eradicate a
deep seated error.

It is pretty clear that the automo-
bile is so much real necessity
and serves so many other purposes
than lust merely weekend riding and
'cross-country touring that It isn't IN
the strict luxury class any more. Tax
ing the motor car industry on the as
sumption that il is a producer OF
luxuries doesn't seem very logical

1t is stated that it can be installed in
three hours.
4 small portable vulcanizer Is con-
venience TO motorists. II consists of a
clamp, dozen patches and piece OF
sandpaper. Each patch consists Of a
metal pan containing a combustible
material which furnishes the heat, and
a piece of quick curing Para rubber on
the other side of the pan. To operate,
clamp the pan over the puncture and
light the heat unit with match or
lighted cigar or cigarette stub. II is
stated that this creates just the right
amount of heat TO vulcanize the rubber
firmly OH the tube, making permanent
patch in five minutes.
There is no danger of burning the
tube. No heat reaches the tube sur
rounding the patch. There is no fame
or blaze. This style Of vulcanizer
costs Sl.50.

A self-winding dash clock. which is
kept going by electric current from the
storage battery or four dry cells is
offered at So. The clock is wound every
minute by tension of the main spring
created BY electric current. The watch
movement Is seven jewelled, mounted
on a hard rubber composition base that
acts as both insulator and absOrber for
any vibration. Removing the beZel eX-
poses the regulator and setting device
by which adjustments can be made, If
desired. The clock is designed with the
idea of avoiding danger of dirt or dust
penetrating. The current consumption
il said TO be so slight that the clock
will continue 10 run after the current
has become too weak for starting or
lighting. The clock. designed to be set
flush in the instrument board. comes
in either nickel or black, with black or
silvered dial.
A device designed to increase the
efficiency Of motors attaches to the in
take manifold after tapping same and
from 1t extends in a flexible tube to
the radiator. The radiator is also
tapped and a copper tube extends into
the neck of the radiator so that it can
conduct moist air through the instru-
ment to the cylinders. The device
keeps the mixture constantly damp.
Water in the moist air is instantly de-
composed into IS per cent oxygen, T.
per cent hydrogen. The liberated
oxygen combines with carbon in the
cylinders. forming carbon monoxide
and an explosion OF Gasolenc vapor
carbon monoxide and hydrogen re-
suits. blowing out the carbon. This
induction OF moist air also makes the
mixture a better conductor for the
spark than dry air. The price is $40.
