SAVE TIME FITTING CHAINS
Experienced Motorlst Will Drape It
over Wheel-Mueh Cleaner Way
of Doing Job.

The novice jacks up his wheel to put
on a chain-not so the experienced
motOrist. There are two ways of ap-
plying the chain. One is to drape Il
over the wheel; the other is to lay II
on the ground and run the car over
It.
The latter method, apart from the
difficulty of steering in straight over
something you cannot see has the add
ed disadvantage that the chain on a
muddy road is in bad condition to
handle. So drape 1t owe the wheel
and you will have a much cleaner Job.
