the average automobile driver realize
what this means.
1t is actually astounding to the old
timers themselves-it has reached the |
unusual to such degree that it is al
most unbelievable; yet, such are the
facts in the case, as the car, the driver
and the road are all right here at
home where they all three can be
seen and questioned.
One of the other drivers says Cad
illacs swim-this sounds unreason-
able, but he says that at Boulder
Creek, during the last rain, he was
in so deep the water flowed over the
tops of the headlights. One can be-
lieve this much. for the carbureters
and distributor are placed away in the
top-most part of the hood; then, he
says he can go through water so deep
| that passengers vii have to climb up
on the backs of the seats to keep
| dry. This is almost swimming.
| Another little feat the Cadillac per-
forms every day. year in and year out,
is to climb the long Summit grade,
nine miles in length on the other side
Of Roosevelt lake, on high gear with
a full load of passengers and luggage.
In fact, the Cadillacs run so cool
left, purposely, just half full Of water,
that they may actually keep warm
enough for the motor to efficiently
carry out the heavy demands exacted
of it. 1t is a well known fact that
one stage line tried every kind of mo-
tive power obtainable, in order to get
a unit that would successfully carry
passengers over this trail. Steamers
were tried-all makes of gas cars were
tried even. Airplanes were contem-
plated and still the sturdy Cadillacs,
twelve in number. are making their
daily trips over the same old road
They twist they turn, they stand on
two wheels, they do things to these
rough old miles that were thought i'm
possible for car, but it still remains
they do run. Various makes of cars
have been misunderstanding head
lines were printed-a new stage line
started-What this and that car in.
tended to do on the Apache Trail
Quietly and gracefully, like a neigh.
borhood rumor, they fade away int
oblivion, never to be heard of again
When one stops to think of thes
things and, in the same thought, look
out upon the street and sees a BIZ
Cadillac Eight loaded to the guard
and breezing away toward Globe, 1
strikes home-it makes an everlastin
impression on the observer. 1t show
above all, the inherent ruggedness, tn
everlasting faithfulness of the car
it's obility to do great things for
long period at time. What though
and care, through the years, mus
have been exerted by those minds an
hands that have created such car a
the Cadillac.
The Babbitt Bros. Co. greet them
they extend homage to them and the
modestly admit it to be a great priv
lege to handle this great car of cars.

A ROTARY GARAGE

In cases where the garage is SO
placed that installation of a turntable
is impossible, it is possible to place
the entire building on big turntable
and give it two doors, front and back,
so that after the car has been driven
in, the garage is swung around and
the vehicle may be driven out in for
ward instead of being backed out.

FORD BATTERY CHARGING

The Ford megneto can be used to
charge a battery, provided a rectifier
is placed in the line. The current
from the Ford magnetic is alternating,
and only direct current can be used il
changing the battery, hence the neeo

SALT AS ANTI-FREEZE

In an emergency common table
salt may be used as an anti-freeze
medium. A saturated solution of
water and salt freezes at about zero.
After the emergency is passed, the
cooling system should be thoroughly
flushed out and be refilled with a
recognized anti-freeze.
