I low the ''Draft Clerk May Make
The Closed Car Usable in Summer

The vast increase in the demand for
closed cars during the past few seasons
is entirely due to the fact that motor
lists have learned from experience the
superior comfort and usefulness of
closed cars at any season of the year
says the "Buick Bulletin"
No one would question that the
closed car is superior as a winter con-
veyance, or for use in damp and stormy
weather. But it is only of late years
that motor car owners have realized
generally that there is more actual
comfort in closed car in hot weather
than in an open model.
The truth of the matter is that the
closed car may be made cooler than
an open car, even in the hottest wealth
er, for the reason that permanent
roof affords more perfect protection
against the sun.
But perhaps the biggest feature of
the correctly designed closed body is
the perfect control it gives over ven
'tilation. At any season of the year
it is possible for the closed car owner
to have exactly the amount of ventila
tion he wishes, and from whatever di-
rection he wishes.
Two factors make this true. First,
the close fitting, easily operated win
dows, and second, tho design of the
three-piece windshield which is stand
ard equipment on most closed models.
The net result is to place ventilation
completely under control, instead of
making it more or less compulsory.
1t is possible to make the open car
top and side curtains quite waterproof
so that the occupants will never be
bothered by getting wet in heavy rain,
This is a matter of using good ma
terial
But there are certain conditions un-
der which the closed car offers more
complete protection than it is possible
to secure in an open car.
For example, we will say that YOU
are driving in the country on hot,
dusty day. The wind is blowing lightly
from the left side Of the road. and
considerable traffic is coming from the
direction in which you are headed, the
dust rising in dense clouds and float
ing over your car.

While as a rule it is desirable to have
a certain amount of ventilation in the
car, there are times when it is equally
desirable to close the inside up en-
tirely, either to shut out dampness.

With a closed car this is quickly and
easily accomplished.

how to meet them all easily and ef-

sition of the windows, whether partly
or completely, closed or opened. all oc-
cupants of the car have undisturbed
vision in every direction.
The three piece windshield is a
valuable asset to the closed car driver.
A little experience with it will reveal
it's many advantages. The manipula-
ton of this type of windshield is not
perfectly understood by all drivers un-
der all conditions. There are times
when the outside glass serves best as
sort of buffer for the inside glass.

In an open car you could not avoid
the dust. In closed car it is per-
fectly simple. You close the wind
shield and all windows on the left
dows open on the right side as YOU find
necessary. The breeze created by your
forward motion will sweep back past
the open windows, creating a certain
current of air that will ventilate the
car, while the dust clouds will be borne
away from you by the wind. See
Figure 1.)
In cool evening you may be driving
when strong drafts would be more or
less dangerous. You leave your wind
shleid closed and lower one or two
from the top which will properly
ventilate your car. and at the same

In very warm weather when little or
no dust is encountered, full advantage
OF the breeze may be taken by adjust
ing the lower half of the windshield
so the incoming air is blown almost
straight to the floor, the upper half
being entirely opened. The air will
then sweep through the whole interior,
cooling the car uniformly. (See Fig

But in storms of snow, sleet or
rain, particularly when accompanied by
heavy wind it is often best to push
the upper half of the inside glass up
parallel with the roof of the car and
then adjust the outside glass to get
clear vision between the outside glaSs
and the lower half Of the inside glass.
For if the outside glass is left in its
usual position under these circum-
stances, the entire inside glass is liable
to become covered with a coating of
snow or water, in which case it viii
be impossible to see through it. (See
