CAR NEARLY 3 YEARS
OLD SELLS BEYOND
THE ORIGINAL PRICE

THE resale price is the unanswer-
able argument as to the status of a
car in the public mind" said John
A Butler, president of the Butler
Motor Car Co, Kansas City automo-
bile dealers. I'm that connection I
can give you an interesting illustra-
ton, which shows typically how easy
il is to move a certain make OF car
after two or three years service.
'Tn February, 1915, we showed our
original demonstration, No. 1O1, to
three thousand people at our open
ing. The car was then sold. and in
December of the same year was re

LIBERTY MOTOR
WAS BIC ASSET
Marvellous Machine Found Ex-
CeIIent for Every Type
of Plane.

BY some means or other which
engineers are unable 10 fathom, the
understanding is rather general that
the Liberty motor proved especially
valuable as motive power for day
light bombing planes and was limit
ed TO that purpose. The truth
about this great war engine, a
specimen OF which was recently on
view in the sales rooms OF the
Packard Motor Car Co. South Bend
exhibit. is that for lighting. bomb
ing, observation and other military
requirements it was the created all
round aviation engine that appeared
on the western front.
In the De Haviland fighting
planes, in which it appeared in
greatest numbers during fhe last two
months OF the war, the Liberty en-
CINE developed a speed Of $50 miles
per hour. In planes especially
fashioned for daylight bombing Of
enemy lines and stores, and carry
ing fun military load Of crew and
armament and missiles, IL went sky
hooting through the air at 125
miles an hour.
The fact is, say the American air
craft engineers, there was only one
type OF service plane 10 which the
Liberty was not adaptable. and that
was the one-seater fighter. II was
too heavy for that or at least for
those One-seater fighting planes
that had been developed. But in
the De Havilands It went over the
German lines for the American
forces for the first time in August
1918, just about a year from the day
the first Liberty flew in tests at

Motor Department.-Which is
worse for an engine, too heavy oil
or too light an oil? X. T.
Too light an oil is so thin that il
can work up by the piston rings and
so cause carbon. Too heavy an oil
forms a coating that will not be
scraped down by the rings. AS this
is charred by the flame and thickens
some of it is carried up by the
rings and also causes carbon. You
should be careful to determine
which grade is best for your partic-
ular engine.

I'm January this company bought

session of No. 101 in trade. For
some months we used this car 10
demonstrate the remarkable dura-
bility of the finish. We cleaned up
the car, repainped the wheels, put
on new tenders and actually very
few people knew it was a used car
until we called their attention to
the fact.
Finally in August, 1918, this car
was sold for $3.50. just s25 more than
its original price in 1915. If any
other car has had a more interesting
resale history, I'll stake my judg-

HELPFUL HINTS.

A squeak is one OF the most
annoying and elusive troubles to
which a car is subject. Usually
il is located in the springs and
so they must be oiled. Jack up
the frame, taking the load off the
springs. Pry the leaves apart
and apply graphite grease with
a thin blade. as most OF the
squeaks come at the tips OF the
springs. This treatment usually
stops the noise.
4 device on the market to
spread the leaves apart saves the
trouble OF lacking up the wheels
This makes the process easier,
since it works on the screw and
wedge principle and separates
the leaves as far apart as may
be necessary.
or course the spring clips
holding the ends of the leaves
together must be removed. on
some springs a piece OF metal is
folded round two leaves while il
is red hot. This makes It diff
icult TO put oil between them.
A useful trick is to put the
graphite grease in an oil can and
set il over a hot fame. When
melted the grease is injected be-
tween the leaves, especially the
part close TO tn bolts that holds
them 10 the axle.
But squeaks do not always
come from the springs. After
spending enough time on them
