Perhaps you have wondered why old

that they have a means Of discrimina-

Their curvature Is, Of course. not the

statements that the war is causing a

CARE OF ANTIsKID DEVICES
Great Harm viii Result From Their
Continual Use-Leavino Them
On 10 Expensive.

Antiskld devices are helpful under
certain conditions, but great harm will
result from their continued use. Be-
cause some devices are noisy there Is a
temptation to fasten them tightly to
the tires. When this Is done the extra
pressure and the f1attening out Of the
tires causes the cross grips to cut and
gouge Into the tire. When cross
grips become worn, sharp and rough.
they should be replaced. Otherwise
the tread will be cut and moisture and
dirt will do the rest.
Take Off the antiskid devices us
soon as the necessity for using them
has passed. Leaving them on when
they are not needed Is highly expen-
sive In tires.

DANGER IN CRANKING AUTOS
This ls Especially So When Engine is

Tip 10 Given.

There Is always danger I'm cranking

properly. as 1t may kick even though
the spark be retarded. Sometimes 1t
is hard work to start an engine with
retarded spark-so here is a little tip:
Open the throttle, but leave the spark
off; turn the engine ove two or three
times, then turn oil the spark and pull
the crank upward, not downward. and
you will not be in danger of breaking

LUBRICATING A SPRING SEAT
Many Car Owners Neglect to Turn Up
Grease Cup Provided-Little
Attention Necessary.

Many p%resent-day cars are fitted with
springs mounted on seats that oscil-
late. These spring seats usually have
some means of fabrication. but many
car owners v take the trouble SIM
ply to turn up the grease cup provided.
While 1t Is not necessary to turn the
cup each day, 1t is advisable to give
his part a little attention now and
then. In cantilever suspensions the
center bearing Of the spring should be
well oiled. Usually this bearing op-

out from the frame. In some cases a
tube running ~transversely of the frame
Is used. either n grease cup or an oil

Car Was No Good.

Another motorist had n car in which
he took much pride and which was run
ming particularly well at the time he
picked up a man. That passenger by
invitation Immediately started to be-
little the car of the man with whom he
was riding, and said that that par
ticular make had never been any good
and that the company would never be
able to make a good car If in business
a hundred years. The driver was one
of the partners in the company anu
featuring the car he drove, so held his
temper, but lost no more confidence
In his product by picking up critical
business men without cars Of their
own, but with decided opinions on the
subject with which they had no expe-
rience.
So it went on. and man after man
of the party showed plainly by his WI
experience that the dear people who
do not own a mOtOrcar care little for
the opinion which the real motorcar
owner may have Of them after their
boorish acceptance Of a kindness well
meant but Oftentimes not repeated.
