TRY GREASING CAR
Gives Owner Of Machine Sensa-
ton Of Having New Auto.
HAVE SPRINGS LUBRCATED
Vehicle That Beforehand Had Roals-
tered Every Bump In Road A.
pears to BE Floating Along
Squeaks Disappear.


Il is a great revelation how much
better an automobile runs after hav-
ing the springs thoroughly fabricated.
A car that beforehand has registered
every bump In the road In no uncertain
way e to be floating along, af-
ter the spring leaves have had a full
supply Of graphite and grease. Not
only do the squeaks disappear, which
is comforting to the ears, but the
whole car appears to be lighter and
full Of life.
Try 1t out on your car and see what
q tremendous Improvement 1t makes.
The effects Of full and complete spring
fabrication are many. Tires seem to
do better service. The car rides better.
You can be sure you are helping &c
lengthen the life of the piece Of ma.
chinery you have bought.
Attention to fabrication.
Taken all in all, there is nothing that
makes q car stand up and perform like
careful and consistent attention to lu.
IRRIGATION. You can be sure of getting
maximum service out Of q car that
hasn't been neglected. If you do neg
lect It, you can be just as sure that
you won't get anywhere near what you
are entitled to.
It is safe to say that a very large
percentage of the troubles that motor
a owners have Is due to their failure
to attend to the proper upkeep of their
machines. If they are neglectful of
this feature, they not only pile up ex-
pense upon themselves-they help to
damage the reputation Of the car they
have bought.
It is a delicate matter for the auto
mobile dealer to have to tell the owner
that he isn't doing his share. A lot
Of motor-car owners think the dealer
is merely trying to pass the buck. But
those who have had service station ex-
perience are only too familiar with
the neglect of essentials shown by
owners of cars. They have seer too
many cases of cars that come in "dry,"
along with the walls of the owner that
the a is n '1emon."
Pleasure to Owner.
Looking ofter his car ought to be a
sort Of pleasure to the automoblllst.
He ought to be able to spare a little
time in each week to do the outstand-
ing necessary things. II he doesn't
think any more of the money he has In
vested than the spending Of this time
amounts to, he must be a reckless sort
of person.
All this is not so much intended for
the man who has a chauffeur or the
man who keeps his car in a garage,
where they look after 1t right along.
But men of this type owe 1t to them
selves to make sure that the essentials
are being performed. 1t is too easy for
a hired driver or a garage man to neg
lect things for a day or so, until final
Iy the time runs into a week or more
and the car actually begins to suffer.
The majority Of motorists attempt to
look after their cars for themselves.
Most Of them do not appreciate for a
moment just how much fabrication
amounts to.
And here's another thing. After
you have had your springs thoroughly
creased, try a set Of leather spring
covers. They'll keep the grease In and
the dirt but. Your lubricant win last
longer and the effects Of 1t win BE- e
much the more Droleaged.
