GIRL PILOTS BIG
DRIVEWAY FOR
AUTO DEALER

A service flag honors the home OF
c. u. Williams, distributor for WHY'S
Overland cars at Bloomington, III.
Walter w. Williams, the only son OF
the Bloomington distributor, is in the
army. He holds the rank of master
signal electrician and is stationed at
Chenute aviation field, Rantoul, ILL.,,
where he is an instructor.
The departure of Walter Williams
to join. the colors, together with q
score or so of the company's en-
.ployes, threatened to impose serious
handicap on the Williams organiza-
tion. This fact prompted Miss Fran
coise Williams to enlist in her
fathers business to "carry on" for her
absent brother.
When the roads opened and the
other distributors began to driver cars
from the factory, Miss FRANCHISE took
charge of this work.
As captain" Of the Williams
"drive-away" crews, Miss Williams
has made several trips to the factory
this season.
In her work Miss Williams uses a
very smart and practical costume
which she has adopted as best suited
to the work in hand. The material is
khaki. breechcs and blouse with
leather puttees, over which Is worn
Z long bclted coat. The effect is dis
tinctly military.

meats foot oil, spread on evenly with
a brush. If the clutch is of the disc
type, lack OF oil is probably the cause
of your trouble.
Could I ask you to further explain
your answer to the recent question
OF J. K. Dill in which he asked if
fitting plate on top of pistons would
increase compression. You say that
this will increase the power of the
engine. Iseontend that there would
be no increase in either power or
compression. This is not criticism
of your valuable department, but |
simply can't figure the matter out
c. G. Wilson.
Certainly, the plate will increase
compression because it reduces the
compression space. II does not
matter whether you drop the cylinder
or increase the piston crown, the
results are the same. do not recon-
mend the use of plates, because it is
difficult to keep them firmly in place.
VIII you PiCdSC answer tHc ioIloW-
ing questionsl D Where can I get
an automobile guide for the whole
United States3 (2) What can l do
to or what can | get to make the
light on my 1918 model Ford car
stronger?-H. Garner.
() You will have to get guide
books, which, however, are issued in
volumes covering certain sections;
thus there will be one volume for
New England, another for the
southern states, a third for the middle
west, etc. Also the American Auto
mobile association in New York City
issues road maps at very moderate
price and these are very useful. (2)
If you are using tn. magnetic to furn-
ish current, the only improvement I
can think of is the installation of a
current control. To get more light
you need more current and larger
bulbs and a generator and battery
system gives much the best results.
I've got a rattle somewhere in the
chassis of my car, but I haven't been
able to locate it, because it stops as
soon as the car is still. Where do
you suppose it lies?-J. F. Newman.
Get someone to drive your car
down long gentle grade; shut off
the engine, while you are standing on
the running board. You may be able
to locate the rattle at once. Noises
of this kind are generally caused by
loose mud guards. brakes or some of
the operating rods, which extend
from the levers or pedals to the
various parts. 1t is difficult for me to
tell what it is in your case, not
knowing where it comes from or the
nature of the noise.

ideal. Why did American manufac-
turers generally take up metal in pref
erence to wood for frame construc-
tioni-John Korb.
The only American passenger car
using a wooden frame is the Frank
lin. The advantages claimed for the
wooden frame are superior strength
for equal weight and absorption of vi
bration. No doubt the relative
cheapness of metal frames and ease
of manufacture had most to do with
influencing the decision of the manu-
facturers.
A grinding noise has developed In
the transmission of my car. | have
drained out the lubricant, flushed the
case with kerosene and put in fresh
oil, but the roise persists. Can you
suggest anything?-L. F. England.
A persistent grinding noise OF this
kind may be caused by misalignment
of the gears or by metallic particles,
bits of teeth, etc, that have worked
in between the gears. Unless you can
do the work yourself, you had better
have the service station check up the
alignment of the shafts and make
what repairs are necessary.
There's something or other the
matter with the clutch of my car. No
matter how carefully | let in the
clutch, the car jumps like a jack

FARMERS IN NEED
OR MOTOR TRUCKS
Demand Continues; Supply
Short; Dealers Go East to
Speed Up Delivery Says
Changstrom.

The demand for trucks throughout
the counties of Nebraska 10 steadily
Increasing. War crops have necessi-
tafed motor cars and trucks to trans
port the produce to the market and
for farm work. Every day orders are
being placed by farmers for trucks,
and owing to the great shortage due
to the big demand the government is
doing all in its power to assist the
truck factories in the manufacture,
but the output is not sufficient to sup
ply the demand.
Carl Changstrom Of the Standard
Motor Car company recently re-
turned from 4 trip into the interior Of
the state, where, he states, the
cry for trucks to supply the farmers
is growing daily.

Factory Location May Mean
Much to Dealer on Delivery

THE question of deliveries is play
ing an important part in the life OF
the automobile man at present." as
serts R. E. Davis, manager Of the
Murphy o O'Brien Auto company. "We
are In an enviable position so far as
Paige deliveries are concerned.
THE Paige factory" asserts Davis,
is located on the main line OF the
Wabash in Detroit, which gives them
quite an advantage in avoiding trans
fer in the congested terminals at Chi
caLo. These shipments came through
over one line to destination.
Y IT Paige factory was among those
which bought the material far in ad-
vance, which eliminates the fear OF
buying on an advanced market for
sonp time to come. There is very lit
tie likelihood of another price advance
ct the present.
The Paige manufacturers have con-
eentrated on the same models for
some time, adding only two or three
new models. This makes their line
quite uniform and thoroughly tried"
