OLDSMObILE MAKING
AUTOS FOR THE
PAST 70 YEARS

Particular pride is taken by men,
bers Of the Ferguson Keller COM
pany in the line which the company
represents. because Of the length of
time which the Oldsmobile has been
on the market" says Mr.. Keller of
the Ferguson Keller Co. state dis
tributors of Oldsmobiles
The company dates back 20 years
to the very foundation of the auto
mobile industry. You can all recall
the song of the early days of motor
ing, In My Merry Oldsmobile.' 1t
was one of the first to popularize
motoring From the factory has
gone men who now rank high in
many other factories, for the Olds
mobile has been the teacher of them.
THE Oldsmobile has not only had
Il long and honorable career, but it
has kept abreast the times. The car
today no more resembles the early
models than does the present-day
batleplane resemble the old flying
machine which made its first trip
years ago. yet the same principals
are there. mechanical excellence,
coach work, appointment and finish.
I'VE are continually receiving ship
ments of these new Oldsmobile
Fights and skies and the heavy de-
mand is being met despite the con-
tinued increase in raw material
scarcity which the factories are eX-
periencing."

so weather. proof that the driver is, at
all times, warm and comfortable.
Truck owners who wish to avoid a tie
up of their trucks this winter or de-
layed shipping schedules through in
ability of their driversato contend with
the winter elements. without the proper
projections are quick to realize that the
all-year cab is another one of those
innovations which is bound to increase
the utility and dependability of motor
trucks.
This year, more than ever, truck
owners want to get Uninterrupted ser
vice out of their trucks, because prac-
tically every industry is doing and will
continue to do a record business, and
the necessity of their transportation
departments keeping up with this in
creased demand has become so impor-
tant. that the all-year cab fits in with
the demand already created for it.
THE truck driver who knows his
business and handles his truck in the
way he should handle it, can get more.
service at less cost out of it than the
driver who does otherwise. When one
realizes that truck owners can elm,
mate the discomfort which their driv-
ers have been dreading with the APP
proach of the winter months, it can be
easily seen how good business judg-
ment causes no hesitation on their part
in making the much needed invest
rnant.'

Truck
Postal Route
To Be Tried

Additional recognition Of the eff
ficiency Of the motor truck has
been accorded by the federal gov
eminent, according to adVices re-
ceiVed by Billy Ferguson, of the
Ferguson Keeier company, dis
tributors OF International and
Mack trucks for this state.
The postmaster of Grand Rap
ids, Mich, has. been instructed to
advertise for bids on a postal
truck route between that city and
neighboring cities. The first route
will connect Grand Rapids with
Saginaw, a distance of 1926 miles,
and a trip each way will be made
six days in the week, the trucks
will carry out detail functions of
travelling post offices and car
rying product direct from the
farmer to the consumer.
"The increase in the number Of
uses 10 WnlCn llle motor car mas
been adopted since the war began
is remarkabIe,' said Mr.. Fergu
son. at may seem rather strange
to us in Arizona that expert
ments with the postal service
should be made in the east be-
fore they are out here where
weather conditions are so much
superior, but there is probably
good reason. There is this sat
isfacticn to the truck dealer how
ever. If the trucks succeed in
such work in the east it will be
as severe a test as they could be
put to and will mean a simple
matter when the custom is in,~
augurated in this section"

SHORTEST WAY IS.
BY BLYTHE CUTOFF.

Securing accurate data on what is
LuuVn as the Blythe Ehrenburg cut
of into Phoenix, Seth Hudgins, the
famous motorcycle road scout for the
National Touring Bureau of the Z. r.
Goodrich Rubber Company, has just
completed road making trip to Ari-
iona that viii be of much interest to
southern California motorists.
This is the shortest route to the
Arizona metropolis. being but 4S7
miles from Los Angeles.
Hudgins, who has been over every
cnc'of the four routes to Phoenix, de-
rlarcs that the cutoff is as good as
any with the added advantage of
Eliminating at least 100 miles of
Tavcl.
Water is frequent, coming as often
as every ten or twelve miles over a
sood part of the road.
This latest trip Of Hudgins is but
part of the Goodrich National Touring
oureau's cndeavors to accurately
soute every road leading into Ari-
Tcna from Southern California.
Particular attention has been paid
'o this section of the country, as is
Videnced by the large number Of

IN Southern California.

LITTLE OVERLAND STILL ATTRACTS
Cantever ThreePont Spring System Said to Make Re
bound and Other Discomforts Impossible

The question of price and the time
of production are the all absorbing
topics of conversation in connection
with the new little Overland car
which is now being shown to the pub
lie for the first time
John n. WHY'S, head whatsoever
land. Inc. explained last night that
the matter of price cannot be def
nitely decided upon until actual pro-
duction Of the car on n quantity
basis is about to. begin. This is due,
he said, to the -fluctuating cost
CT materials and other unusual con
ditions in the material market that
prevail at this time.
Mr. WHY'S pointed out that mas
much as the car is so light in weight
and so Simple in design the very
highest grade of materials can and
will be used exclusively in every
part and the selling price will be
made as attractive as possible.
With reference to production, Mr.
WHY'S stated that it was first in
ct in the spring. but conditions in
volving materials, machinery and
transportation have delayed the gen
eral production until some time in
the summer.
The staff of engineers for WHY'S
Overland, Inc, who designed and per.
fected the little Overland along the
lines that Mr.. WHY'S had in mind,
have been the recipients of congralu-
lations from many prominent mem
bers of the engineering profession
during the week. Their work is con-
sidered one of the most notable
achievements of the past two years
in the motor vehicle world.
If there. is any one detailed among
all the novel and original ideas in
volved in the cars construction that
can be said to receive more attention

Roper Also
Enters Into
Combination

The r. D. Roper Motor COM
pany has added its considerable
list Of used cars to the combined
collection of Rabbit brothers and
the Overland Arizona company,
the consolidation of which two
latter firms was effected re-
Gently.
The used car dispensary on
the Central school grounds now
presents an array of machines
composed of everything from the
lowest priced roadster to the
highest priced touring car.
Scarcity of new cars, and the
growing demand for motor pro-
PEELED vehicles, has increased the
Importance of the second hand
machine. The joint efforts of
these three big concerns are ex-
pected to revoIutionize the used
car business in Phoenix.
MIR. Roper handles the Chalmers
and Maxwell cars and trucks in
his new lines, while of course,
cars of every description have been
taken in on trades, and other
deals.

Ford Is Car
Without The
Usual FriU

''lf the average person were
asked the nape of the car with
the frilIs left OUT says Ed Ru-
dolph, ''the answer would unhesi-
tatIngIy be Ford
For years it has been the
proud boast of Henry Ford that
the product of his factory was
for the masses, and as such was
devoid of every bolt, screw and
other superfluity not essential
to the sturdiness of the car. AS
result, the Ford car has pretty
nearly reached the apex Of sim
pIicity."
Ed Rudolph says there is no
use talking about the runabout or
touring car. Everybody knows
of them; but with the sedan and
coupelet: "The road up the hill of
happiness is green and pleas
ant way-for the man with a
coupelet or sedan to help him
enjoy life as he goes. Everyone is
climbing this hiIl-but some of US
make a long, tough job of it.
A coupelet or sedan makes the
trip quicker and more sure"

NEW YORK EMPLOYS

GIANTS ARE USED FOR ROUGH
EST KIND OF SERVICE IN
GOTHAM

Ed. Rudolph states that New York.
the city which claims leadership in
all big undertakings in this country.
has equipped its twelve new motor
powered street flushers with Fire
stone Giant tires.
1t was after a thorough investisa.
ton of truck tires that the street
cleaning branch of the metropolis
government were the only equipment
which would give the utmost salts
faction.
These flushers with a carrying ca
pacity of $500 gallons Of water need
big tires. They weigh fifteen tons
loaded. fN
There are giants on both front and
rear wheels. The rear wheel equip
ment is composed of two 4Ox14 inch
tires and the front wheel tires are
37x7 inches.
Tires on these monster trucks
which travel daily over wet slippery
pavements carrying an enormous load.
need tires that not only have the
necessary bulk Of rubber rightly com
rounded to sustain the tremendous
weight. and give long mileage but
also sustain the tremendous weight.
and give long mileage but also the
design OF tread Nhlch VIII prevent
skidding. and the BLACK Lash" caused
by the action of the big streams of
water flowing from both ends of
the flushers.
There is not only water pouring
from the rear of the truck to make
slippery "foothold" for the back
wheels. but the front wheels are
constantly revolving with a stream
of water ahead making perfect traO-
ton even more difficult
Firestone giants, however. do not
slip. The deep grooves have solved
the traction problem here as they
have every difficult oue in the past
They grip the Wet pavement Sc

ways or no "spirMing" of the driv-

KSSEL TRUCK HAS
NEW ALL YEAR
CAB BODY

1t is obvious that if truck drivers
are comfortable while working in Win
ter or disagreeable weather, they will
be more apt to give greater considcra-
ton to the handling of their trucks"
says II. W. Nerney of the KisselKar.

10 CLEAN BATTERY PLATES

the Following solution is recon-
ntended for cleaning battery plates that
nave become somewhat sulphated:
Half a pound of ammonium acetate in
a quart of water. The plates are re-
moved from the battery case and i'm
mersed in the solution, which must be
hot. and are left therein for half an
hour. In some cases it may require q
longer treatment to remove the sui
phate. After their bath the plates
should be washed we'll in clear water
and then dried before being returned
to the battery

than the others, it is probably the
unique three-point cantilever spring
construction that gives this automo-
bile of 100 inch wheel base the same
suspension effect as a $50 inch wheel
base.
This type of spring suspension not
only revolutionizes the ordinary prac-
tice of automobile spring design, but
it adds greatly, it is claimed, to the
riding comfort of the car With the
average spring, all OF the excess throw
or rebound is directed TO Chat end
of the car Immediately above the
springs, causing so much annoyance
and discomfort that there has been
a tremendous market for stock alb
sorbers and spGbbers in order to
overcome those disadvantages.
Acting on the lever principle the
new spring transmits throw to the
opposite end of the car from that
of the springs. In other words. each
spring must lift the whole body of
the car if rebound occurs.
Due to the unique construction of
the new springs, there is total bal
ance of all tendency to twist the
| frame or body. When any one of
the wheels is raised off the ground
the weight of the frame and body,
as a unit is transferred to the springs
at the opposite side With no twist
ing of the body, body squeaks are
eliminated. Furthermore. it is de-
clared that the spring suspension l.
so staunch that there is no percept-
ible side sway or rocking of the
| body while driving.
