STUDEbAKER GIVEN
 PATENT UPON BEVEL
 T0P II NOW ADOPTS

Under patent No. 52,125. dated July 7, 1918, patent rights covering the use of bevel- edge around the top of an automobile body, were granted to Jos. H. Bourgon, body engineer of the Studebaker corporation, by the United States patent offices. Washington, D. C., says Robert c. Greth, manager of the Phoenix Motors company.
 The bevel-edge of the new series 19 Stakeholder is one of the most con- spicuous of it's many outstanding fea- lures. This long stream line bevel &C., centuates the length of the car and gives it a low, rakish appearance. Trimmed in a contrasting color to that of the main part of the body, it adds an outstanding touch of color that is al once mark of distinction.
 Although the new Stakeholder seven passenger big-si was the first stock car to feature the bevel edge body. il is interesting to note, in connection with the granting of the patent rights to Studebaker that the same idea ap- peared on a Studebaker custom body job over two years ago. In the fall o 1915 MT. Bourgon, the Studebaker's veteran body engineer and long fam ous as a creator of distinctive body types, brought out special five pass. enger Studebaker car which made ust of the stream-line bevel identically as It appears on the new series 19 big six. This model was named tn, Stakeholder "Bourgonette," after it. designer, and won considerable recog milton at the time as one of the fines | special custom body jobs that had eve | been DrOduced in America
 This year MT. Bourgon utilized tn same idea in working out the body de sign of tn eStudebaker big-six knowl as the masterpiece of the Studebake organization and recognized as one o the most beautiful cars on American roads. And it is this bevel- edge, borl with the Studebaker "Bourgonette, that is now officially registered an, fully protected by patent rights tha are wide in their scope.
 The bevel- edge body of the sStu6e l baker big-six, however is but one o the many original features of automo bile body construction that have foun | the source of their creation in the bi and versatile body building Iepartmen of the Studebaker corporation. MI | Bourgon, and his staff of expert de signers and body builders, are continu ally striving for body improvement
 that will not only add to the beautifu | appearance of Studebaker cars, but wi
 also give Studebaker owners the maxi
 mum in motoring convenience an
 comfort.

speed or even to first In either case this method of descending grades saves the brake lining and conserves fuel and we must all be conservationists now. Wheel Squeaks
 Squeaks eminating from the wheels are often caused by uneven tightening of the Jugs. In this event loosen all the Jugs and then tighten them up again gradually. Tighten up one little and then do the same for the one directly opposite. go all around the wheel draw ing the Jugs down little at time. It will be found that this treatment will cure any case of squeaks resulting from this cause.

TRANSFORMATION
 VALUE IF AUTOS
 |S NEAR BILLION

The growth and development of the automobile industry has been so rapid that people generally have not had an opportunity to appreciate it's vast ex tent or it's importance to people in every walk of lige. In discussing this W. E. Ferguson of the Ferguson Keel CT company, local Oldsmobile dealers, quoted facts and figures so astounding as to be almost unbelievable were it not for the fact that they are based on the highest authority in the land.
 ''The passenger service rendered by automobiles said MT. Ferguson, lis in excess of forty-five billion miles each year. While that figure is so big that it fairly staggers the imagination, it is easily reckoned. There are five million automobiles in use in United States today. Multiply that by 5000 which surely is less than ethe average mileage. That gives 15,000, 900, 000. But this figure must be multiplied by three-.the average number of passen- gers per car. At the rate of three cents per mile this represents an actual transportation value of s1,350,O00, 900.
 "A census of those to whom the in dustry gives employment shows that there are S30,000 actual workers These people, together with their dependents would completely populate the city of Chicago During the year 1917 more than two and a quarter times the gross revenue of the United States postoffice or STAT. 100000 was paid to employees of the automobile industry. The amount of actual capital invested is s1,297, 100000 a sum far greater than the capitalization of all national banks combined.
 Some idea of the time and labor saved by automobiles may be gained from the fact that American automo- piles alone could transport all the men in the contending armies from Paris to Berlin in forty eight hours.
 While it may not be generally known, farmers owe more to the auto mobile industry than any other class of people. In the first place over two million automobile are owned by farm CTS, and it has been carefully computed that if each one carried only one pass enger but ten miles each day, the yearly gain in production over horse power amounts to s250,000,000. Right now there are twenty-five million horse. | left in the country. Automobiles could be substituted for them and the con- served land planted to wheat; on, years yield would be enough to wipe out every cent of the national debt including the three Liberty Loan is | SueS."

Practical Paragraphs
Leather Preservative

Leather Preservative
 As a preservative for black leather, tops. upholstery, straps, etc, the fol- lowing will be fund a remarkably ef- fective agent: two ounces of oil of tur- pentine. half an ounce of lampblack, ten ounces of neatsfoot oil and four ounces of vaseline. The lamp black should be mixed with the turpentine and neatsfoot oil, after which the vase line heated until it is thin is poured in and the whole mixture is shaken briskly. The paste that results should be rubbed we'll into the leather.
 Brake Adjustment
 Heat is the inevitable concomitant of friction. When the brakes have been too tightly adjusted, friction results and the unit becomes hot. It is good plan to feel the brake drum after an adjustment has been made and the car run awhile, for if the parts are too tight, the heat present in the drum will indicate the trouble.
 A Clutch Trouble
 When the shifting collar of the clutch has suffered considerable wear. or the small pins in the rod which con- nects the clutch pedal with the release mechanism have worn, the clutch pedal may be pushed down all the way and yet the spring which is intended to keep the parts in contact will not be compressed sufficiently to function | properly.
 | Use for Cutout
 I The much abused cutout has one positive virtue if no other; it may be used for determining the condition oi | the fuel mixture. By running the en- 1 zine after dark and throwing on the | cutout the flame that issues therefron will tell exactly the condition of the mixture. If the flame is blue or color less, the mixture is correct, whereas red flame indicates an excess of gas olne and yellow flame the presence of too much air.
 Sudden Stoppage
 To the new owner of a motor cal there is nothing else quite so mystify- | ing as to have his engine suddenly ant 1 instantaneously stop running, after il has been going along apparently in th' best of health. This means a suddeI dead stop with no preliminary cough! | and wheezes. The veteran drive | knows, however. that this probabl, | means a failure of the ignition systen and furthermore realizes that a wir, has probably broken, as it is almos
 impossible for any other trouble t cause this instantaneous stoppage.
 Wasted Current
 It should be made a practice not t, throw on the ignition switch until tn
 car is actually to be started. If tn
 switch is turned on for some time be
 fore the car starts, an appreciabl
 amount of current is wasted and tn
 storage battery is correspondingl
 drained Moreover the ignition coil
 become more or less heated and migh

 Coast When You Can
 The proper method of taking stee
 down grades is to leave the clutch i
 and throw off the ignition. This keep

 ism. When the grade is unusually stee 1t may be necessary to shift to secon

loss of power when the lights are turned on, it will usually be found that this condition is caused by corroded battery terminals or loose connections. The trouble may be cured by making sure that all terminals are tight and removing any corrosion with emery cloth and then applying little hard grease to the parts.
 Fan Belt PulIeys
 In fan assemblies that have V-shaped pulleys for the belt, it is well to ex- anime this location for accumulations of dirt, and any such deposits should be carefully cleaned out. Further. it is good practice to give the belt a brush ing with a stiff brush and then wipe il l off with a cloth dipped in neatsfoot oil.

it is your own fault if through a trial of the cure you succeed in ruining your battery. Most of the writers of these popular battery articles play safe by being rather indefinite.
 AS a matter of fact, there is no ma terial that can be put into a battery to cure ills that have been caused by neg lect or abuse. The best course to fol- low is to have yonr battery inspected every week or two by an expert, which would enable you to steer entirely clear of any serious trouble. If for any reason this is not done the one thing to remember is that the only remedy for battery trouble is pure wa ter, charging and finally, expert at tention at the hands of a man who knows his business. Chemicals and extra acide never do anything but ruin batteries"

OWNERS SERVICE DEPARTMENT

I understand that there is lot of trouble in the Studebaker axles and I was thinking of getting a Stakeholder small six when someone told me they give lot of that trouble. Do you know anything about it? Is it safe to buy a car the first year?-W. B. Smith.
 am not aware that the new Stude- bakers have any such trouble In fact, l am almost sure there is no such chronic complaint. You may have heard this about the old Studebakers with the rear axle gearset, but the new ones are of entirely different design.
 2-That depends on the company putting out the car and the specific design of the car. Usually a new de- sign is to be summed until the com pany has had time to take the kinks" out but reputable concern takes the .'lIinks' out before the car is mar keted.
 Is it advisable to take up bearings tight? An owner know who had loose bearings took them up real tight and said that he couldn't crank the motor afterwards, but that he thought should take mine up tight. That don't sound right to me. What do you think R. T. $.
 Certainly not. Too tight is just as bad if not worse than too loose A bear ing that is too tight won't oil right and it may burn out in hurry The bear ing (connecting rod) should be just tight enough so the rod can be freely moved on the shaft There should be no perceptible play but some small allow ance must be made for the oil film
 
 What do you think of tire filler now Does it pay to use this and does it void the tire guarantee ?-Albert Thompson
 I am familiar only with one make of tire filler and the makers of it make certain claims which undoubtedly the product upholds. Some filler is bad be- cause it is affected by changes in tenn perature. getting soft and plastic with heat and hardening with cold. Better get the make the manufacturer guar antees in writing that his does not dc this. I think the tire guarantee be- comes void, but then so far as pune lures and blowouts are concerned, they will not occur. Tire wear is a factor to be considered with a filler.
 Every owner l speak to has at some time or other trouble with carbon from oil in the combustion chamber which also causes plug trouble and smoking They say that new piston rings hell only for while and then the trouble comes back again. What is your rem edy?-B. T. Garfield.
 My remedy depends solely on tho cause of the trouble. In many cases the engine is overfed with oil, in others the oil is too, thin, in others the cylin. ders are badly worn out of shape ol the pistons worn oval. New rings won't cure scored or oval cylinders.
 What is the usual point in pistoi travel for the spark to occur when tn, break box is in retard position?-J. S Samuels.
