FILLED
BY LIGHT SIX
Engine Continued From
Year to Year Because Of
Satisfaction Given.

-Four years ago last July, the first
Haynes Light Six" engine made its
debut before the motor buying pub
lie The best evidence Of the welcome
it found is the fact that the motor
finds greater favor today, at the be-
ginning Of its fifth year. than at
any period Of its existence, according
&C local dealer for the Haynes Auto
mobile company, KoIzomo, Ind. This is
true. Notwithstanding the fact that
four years is a long time for any au-
tomobile motor TO meet successfully
the requirements Of all owners with
out any radical change in cOnstruc-
1t was in July. 1914. that the Haynes
company first offered a lightweight.
high speed six cylinder engine OF ad-
Vanced type. It was surplus powered.
economical in the consumption OF fuel
and extremely durable. II was so far
in advance Of the average automobile
motor that il has been found advisable
to continue it from year TO year with
only a few minor betterments.
The introduction Of the Light Six"
engine by the Haynes company filled
a long felt want The six cylinder cars
built before the summer OF 1914. with
the large bore and long stroke, were
cumbersome and unecOnomicaL.
The need was for a six cylinder en-
CINE which would deliver more power
Der unit Of fuel, had weight enough
to hold the road, and flexibility
enough to do away with constant gear
The ability Of the Haynes
Light Six TO meet these demands
gave it early prominence. It met all
the requirements OF the driver,
whether for slow or fast speed, light
or heavy loads, and was extremely
economical in the use Of fuel

TIGHT SPRING CLIPS
WILL SAVE TROUBLE

L ". Broyles. local representative
for Indiana trucks, states: an going
over different matters for the past
year, we find there has been a little
spring trouble owing TO the fact that
the spring clips are not kept tight
The object Of the spring clips is not
only TO hold the spring firmly in the
axle, but also to prevent movement
Of the spring between the spring
clips
Naturally. the weakest part OF the
spring is where the bolt is drilled in
the middle Of the spring. The pur-
pose Of the spring clips is to prevent
any spring action in the center Of
the spring, where this hole is drilled.
The clips arc intended to hold the
center Of the spring rigid and TO pre-
vent any movement OF the springs in
the bolt hole
We are entirely safe in stating
that every spring which breaks
through the bolt hole is due TO loose
spring clips. such breaks are not the
result OF defects in the springs. bu.
are due to neglect by the operator OF
the truck or car.
New spring clips should be in
spected and frightened every day until
the stretch OF the metal and the elias
ticity Of the springs have been taken
up"

LOCK MACHINES
Auto Thieves Should Not
Be Encouraged by Care
lessness Of Car Owners.

That car owners contribute 10 in
creased thefts OF automobiles by
earelessly leaving their machines in
such condition that they may be op-
Grated by a stranger. is the belief Of
Charles Barker owner Of the Audi
forum garage.
II came TO light several months
ago through a score Of arrests in De-
troits Chicago, Indianapolis and Louis
Tille by detectives that systematic
and wei organized auto thieving ex-
lists over large areas In United States.
Hundreds OF machines were recovered
in the raids made simultaneously in
the four cities and it was learned that
autos were scientifically taken apart
and different parts shipped TO differ
ents points where the parts were used
in assembling new machines.
Every car owner should have a
lock" states 1r. Barker. Not 6 type
Of lock with which thieves are IA
miliar IN their business. but one that
defies attempts TO work. Locally
careful owners have been demanding
a lock absolutely safe. In response
TO repeated calls have secured a sup
ply OF new Ford locks and locks for
All kinds Of autos which put an ef-
fective stop TO car thieves. No car
owner should neglect having the best
thief protector"

The Fort Worth Record OF Friday,

to J. W. Kirkpatrick. Of the Tri-

This was the call OF the government
and Kirkpatrick acted as the dynamo
Now he is handling tractors in the
territory OF west Texas, New Mexico
and Arizona lie knows all about the
drouth conditions under southwestern
skies and he knows the pressing need
OF the tractor in order that millions
Of acres Of idle land may be turned
into productive land and bumper crops
produced in the year 1913
AIr- Kirkpatrick was here Thursday
to confer with Hub Digs, one OF his
coadjutors in the tractor world. They
held a conference and then the man
from the west and the Fort Worth
man ran over TO Dallas to keep an
appointment with judge W. +. Ram
sey, chairman ofsthe board Of direct
ors Of the federal reserve bank
This appointment has to do with
the tractor question. the distribution
Of 500 tractors in Texas without de-
lay. in order that glad tidings may be
planted in the hearts Of farmers in the
drouth section and the soil turned for
the coming season in order to insure
crops Of foodstuffs. If necessary. the
man from the west, after his confer
ence with judge Ramsey, may make
the journey to Detroit TO confer with
the Fords.
FL Paso is a breezy city. FL Paso is
likewise a business city made I'D OF
hustlers. This distributor Of the Ford
tractor is a fine type Of the men who
do business in the upper Rio Grande
country. The jump from FL Paso to
Fort Worth is just a little skip for
Kirkpatrick in the run to Detroit

PREPARED.
SAVES TROUBLE
Travelling Without Extra
Tire Is Expensive, Says
Local Tire Man.

Would a man start on a long walk
ing trip, carrying with him an empty
shoe box7" asks d. C. Booth. manager
OF the Quick Tire Service, Inc. dis
tributors OF United States tires and
tubes. at s23 Texas street. Yet a
countless number Of motorists start
out on long drives carrying empty
rims at the back OF their cars
"Of course. it's more trouble for
the pedestrian TO carry a shoe box in
his hands. than for a motorist TO carry
an empty rim at the back OF his car.
But the principle Is the same, The
man has with him method for carry
ing change OF equipment in case OF
accident, and he doesn't use it.
Like all other people who are un-
prpared, the man with the empty rim
hurts himself most Suppose he gets
puncture. and, having no extra tire,
is tempted to run short distance to
the nearest garage on debated tire
This drive will probably cost him
several dollars a mile. The fabric.
ground between the road and the rim,
is injured so that eventually a pre-
mature breaking down OF the side
walls Of the casing takes place Or
II he IS not near garage. there is

The tire may be cut slightly. Not

driver and goes on sand and gravel
work in between the rubber tread and
the fabric. and by the time he gets

UniUersaL Tire Enjoys
Increasing Business
During Last Two Weeks

Mrs. NJ. LeGross Johnson, manager
Of the Universal Tire company re-
ports that business has shown a ma
terial increase within the last two
weeks. While Mrs. Johnson is unable
to account for the sudden squirt en-
tirely, she states that q large part Of
her success has doubtless been due to
the addition OF expert mechanics
added TO the working force. She re-
ports a greater number Of used tires
found in this locality than formerly.
I don't believe there is any great
change in local conditions as regards
the wearing out and discarding Of
tires" says. Mrs. Johnson, but my
new foreman knows right where to
get them, that's all" The Universal
manager staetes that she is now well
supplied with used tires and ready to
care for all work needed by car own

All Kinds Of Parts
Being Sought By Car
Owners Now For Repairs

There was a time when replace

says J. c. Byars, manager OF Byars
& company. When the more essential
parts wore out, another auto was
bought. That time IS past Buying
bodies for cars has not been COM
mon practice until lately. Since ma
terial has become scarcer and the an
nouncement has been made by some
manufacturers that no more autos
viii be made at all, the demand for
car bodies has wonderfully increased.
For two weeks 7 have been waiting
for a load OF new style Ford bodies
Whereas formerly I might have had
no demand for the bodies. now inquiry
is keen and some even agree to buy
without having seen them. which is
sure indication Of Increasing need for
bodies. The same is true IN regards
to other parts"

while no one denies that the sal
