Jordan Silhouette
And Playboy Models
Post-W ar Types Are Announced
by Cleveland Maker, With
Distinctive Lines

The Jordan Motor Car Company is
the first in the field with a postwar
model, in the new Silhouette and the
Playboy, just announced. The Sill
houette is already here with the Nc
Curdy- Brainard Company and the first
cars OF the Playboy model will soon
be shipped
The Silhouette. which is to be made
IN four and seven passenger sizes, is
said to smack smartly of the European
atmosphere. with several features of
its makeup borrowed directly from
the French. The Playboy, a two-pas-
senger model, with seat behind. was
designed for young people. AS Ed
ward S. Jordan describes it, "it's a car
for a mans man. or girl who loves
the out-of- doors-a spirited companion
for wonderful girl and wonderful
boy" The Playboy will be built in lin
tied numbers for delivery in May, in
scarlet or Burgundy old wine.

models. says of the Silhouette: Like

Accessibility What l.
Aimed At, Saws milford

Accessibility of all parts that re-
qulrc inspection, adjustment or lubri-
cant is desirable not only for the con
venence Of the car owner but for the
safeguarding OF the manufacturer
reputation. ut wasn't question merely
of saving the car owner q lot of work
and trouble, though we wanted to do
all we could III that direction" says
!. ". Mulford, president of the L. w.
milford Company, Inc, but equally a
matter of insuring that Grant SKIES
would be properly taken care of, that
led us to pay great deal Of attention
to the matter of accessibility.
1--WE knew that most owners of Grant
skies would attend to their cars them
selves. This is universally true on the
farms, Of course, where the Grant is
one Of the popular cars, but it is almost
as true in the cities.
"Our problem was to protect every
working part as completely as it can
be done in the most expensive car,
yet without compelling the owner to
take mis- car to 4 garage and com
plete machine shop in order to inspect,
adjust or lubricate it.
'ln the latest Grant the engine, the
fly wheel, the starting pirion. the
clutch and clutch throwout are housed
and protected. yet the owner can get at
any of these parts almost instantly.
When he lifts the hood nc finds no
overhead wiring in the way, the vacuum
tank is against the dash, the electrical
system, the oil pump, the carburetor
every part of the power plant is easy
TO get at without Interference with
anything else. There is arm and elbow
room to spare.
eve believe the car is as near to
being absolutely automatic as a motor
car can be. II has been our aim to build
a car requiring a minimum of attention
In our engineering department we work
months to improve some small detail
which the average man would consider
perfect already. No sooner do we finish
designing and refining one car thar
we start all over again to see where
even the slightest Improvement can be
made. This is one Of the reasons why
the automobile has developed more
rapidly than any other piece Of mocha
nism ever invented by man. But We
shall probably never get to a point
where motor car will work as vel
or last rs long when the owner forgets
to screw UP the grease cups or change
his dirty oil as it will when lie is
thoughtful enough to give his car the
very slightest attention. That is al il

Open Winter, Naturally,
Has Helped Car Sales

The open winter that we have en-
joyed has been q great stimulant to
automobile sales. | cannot recall a
winter when automobiles have been
nore generally used than during the
past four months" says William G.
poerner, metropolitan distributor for
National cars.
Fewer cars have been put in winter
storage this year than ever before in
the history of the automobile. The
weather men, in fact, tell us that we
have had SIS per cent the better of the
winter averages this year. and when
you beat the average on the wealth er
70 that extent the automobile dealer
has good reason for rejoicing.
THE benefits of the open winter,
moreover, have carried over into early
spring, for the cars purchased THIS
month and next can be put to immeAli-
ate use. There is the minimum of
frost in the ground TO soften and play
havoc with the highways"

Three Points That
Mean Much in Trucks
+. c. Showers Tells of Impor-
tant Merchandising Methods
for Commercial Vehicles

a. number OF important factors must
be reckoned with by man who under
takes to merchandise motor trucks, ac-
cordine to f. c. Showers Of the Kauf
mann-Stowers Company, New York rep
resentatives of Nash products Here
are the three most important require
ments that must be met by dealer in
motor trucks, according to Mr.. Stow
ers:
He must have a practical working
knowledge of transportation problems
with reference to types Of trucks best
suited to the requirements Of various
individual industries
He must offer for the solution Of
these problems motor truck that is
what may be termed factory built"
He must be prepared to stand back
of his truck with an organization com
petent to render intelligent service
These requirements are all based
upon sound and sane business sense"
says MIR. Showers. "For instance, if a
dealer lacks a practical working knowl
edge Of the transportation business
with the result that he cannot hon
estly and intelligcntly recommend a
certain type of truck for specific kind
OF work, how can he expect to develop
satisfied owners? Without satisfied
owners how long can a merchant Of any
kind expect to stay in business?
ut is my belief, based upon expert
ence, that factory built truck, one
built practically ~ one factory, is the
most satisfactory and the less likely
to remain all orphan in the lands Of
the owner.
"The ability to give service is a vital
factor in the merchandising of motor
trucks. Ii this is important to the man
who buys passenger car it is decided
" more important TO the business in
stitution that invests its money in a
motor truck. Lack Of adequate service
facilities means delays, and with refer
ence to the motor truck it is imperative
that there be minimum of delay in
the matter of service -

Draining Oil

What world Of trouble you are
storing up for yourself if you do not
drop the oil base and clean it. Sedi-
meut and muck accumulate faster than
YOU think and sooner or later you will
have ruined engine on your hands
II is not sufficient to change the oil
regularly. rs advised by the manufac-
turer. The oil basS should be taken
down and the deposits removed occa-
sionally.
The first time you do this you will
be surprised ar the nature of the &C
cumula.ions Small Jumps of carbon
from the cylinders, sand from the road,
even particles OF metal turnings left
there when your car came from the
factory, have all been found in the
oil base. But worst Of all is the thick
muck Of burnt oil and carbon which
covers the bottom and sides. The grit
and other particles are heavy and sink
% the bottom, but the muck remains
even after the base is drained Of the
old oil.
The advice usually given TO the mo-
torist may be summed MP as follows:
Drain out all the old oil. Replace TIE
Mug and fill to the usual level with
kerosene. Run the engine not more
than thirty seconds and then drain the
oil base. Repeat if thought necessary.
This stirs up the muck and sediment,
which runs out with the kerosene. In
this way the base and bearings are
cleaned with minimum Of effort and
without removing the crank-case.
"Stir it upl" Indeed, the grit which
should lie dormant until scraped cut
by hand is stirred up and splashed all
around the crank case and also car
risd into the bearings. It forms a fine
grinding compound, which either short
ems the life OF the bearings or clogs up
the oil holes, causing the bearings to
run dry. The result is even worse il
the oling system is one of the pres
sure type forcing oil through & hollow
crank-shaft directly into the bearings.
Right into the bearings, mind you.
and under pressure, too! Can anyone
defend this method after realizing
what this means? 1t is not a sufficient
answer 10 say that the oil mus. pass
through strainer. The finest grit will
always pass through, and the harm is
done.
So although it is a dirty job and a
disagreeable one TO remove the crank
case FOR proper cleaning, it is the only
way to give your engine the care it
really needs.
