Days for inspection.


The only way this can be done with
certainty is to set aside certain days
for the inspection of each vehicle by
a mechanic whose sole duty is to seek
out the thirsty members and apply
the lubricant most TO its taste Armed
with a fabrication diagram, perhaps,
though this would only be necessary
at the start, a large squirt can of
oil, another of kerosene to clean out
dirty bushings and to free those
which may be gummed or stuck, a
bucket and gun of dope" or trans
mission lubricant and a pail or can
Of cup grease, on the appointed night
he will go entirely over the truck.
He should pick out certain place
to start-the starting crank is a logi-
cal place-and proceed about the
truck, cleaning away the caked mud
and dirt and looking at each point
keenly. Parts which are found to be
in need of lubricant should have the
needed material applied at once and q
note made of the need. In his inspec'
ton he will test the quality of oil in
the engine base, gearbOX, differential
etc, as well as merely the quantity
present, since it is necessary to clean
out old oil periodically. When 8

out the case with kerosene and fill il
to the proper level with new, clear
Oil.
1t may take several hours to give
the proper attention to one badly neg
lected truck, but if once done properly
and cOnscientiously followed up b!
periodical subsequent inspections, al
energetic mechanic should be able t.
act as godfather to three or four vehi
cles a night. Naturally if the fleet Il
small, this will not be necessary. Once
in two weeks is often enough for eacl
vehicle, the driver being held strict,
responsible for all daily fabrication
points, such as the fan grease cup, TIL
clutch olIer or grease cup, the sprinj
bolts, steering joints, steering knuckle
and radius rods.

How Old Are You
By Your Hair?

You may be thirty in years, but if
you are bald-headed, gray, or your
hair is dry, brittle, scraggly and
ugly-loolting, people will surely take
you to be many years older.
When your hair becomes faded
dry, streaked and scraggly, when 1t
falls out badly and new hair can
not grow, the roots should be i'm
mediately vitalized and properly
nour:shed. To do this quickly, safe

Kennedy's Drug Store and all good
drug and toilet counters.
It's guaranteed to abolish dam

hair and promote n new growth or
money refunded. It's in great de-
mand by discriminating women be-
cause it makes the hair so soft, lus-
trous, easy to arrange attractively
and appear heavier than 1t really is.
A massage with Partisan sage is
real delight-easy to use, not
sticky or greasy. and delicately per-
fumed-an antiseptic liquid free
from dangerous ingredients and
guaranteed not to color the hair or
scalp. If you want good-looklng
hair and plenty of 1t, by all means

pendant was not what was now
disturbing her equanimity. 1t was
the indubitable fact that it had
been stolen, and that suspicion
would be cast upon someone in her
employ.

been taken from the box while thls

Moreover she was too clumsy. to tic

The only other person was Norah.
Carefully, Desiree went back in her
