THE EXPERTS SAY.

If drivers would only learn it, the
changes is to make the necessary
ones quickly. By slowing down the
engine to about 500 revolutions at the
beginning of hill it often is possible
to save making an additional change
later on, in addition to which one
makes a quicker climb anyway. Also.
the early change saves strain on the
engine and transmitting parts.
A frequent cause of leaks in radiat-
ors is that the vents in the filling cap
and overflows become choked with
sediment, with the result that steam
accumulates in the radiator, and the
pressure seeking an outlet forces an
opening at the weakest point. lit
tie care Of the vent will remedy this
trouble.
It used to be the fashion to recon-
mend shellac as satisfactory me-
dunn for. painting rims. AS matter
of fact. shelIac has the fatal charac-
teristic of peeling or after brief serv-
ice. Graphite paint or even ordinary
paint is better for use on the rims
than shellac.
When it is necessary to lay up the
storage battery for some time there
are two methods of procedure. The
battery may simply be laid away with
the eiectrolyte in it and be recharged
at intervals and have distilled water
added as needed, This serves very
well for a long lay-up, When the
battery is to be out of commission for
longer time it should be taken to
the battery station and dry stored In
this method the battery is dismantled
and the dried plates are stored until
required for reassembling.

Complete Success.
TALK OF FUTURE EXHIBITS

Doubt that any future Washington
automobile show will be held in an
auditorium or central place was freely
expressed yesterday by many dealers
in the city, following the unprecedent-
edly successful display conducted dur
ing Buy an Automobile week. The
show was the first ever attempted
here in which the displays were placed
in the showrooms of the various
agencies. and dealers and others yes
erday were unanimous in declaring
the week the greatest, from every
point of view, in the history of local
automobile and automotive annals.

half-hearted support on the part of
many dealers, no more than a single

was to be monumentally successful.
Dealers who on Monday had made no
move toward decorating their show
rooms 1ell in line as soon as they saw
the attractive settings in which other
dealers had placed this years models,
and by Tuesday forenoon not a dis
play room in the city remained I'M
decorated.
Participants in the event unite in
giving credit to the new Automotive
Trade Association for the results. The
organization, they assert, oVercame
every obstacle, planned with genuine
inspiration and worked with determ-
inatlon, the result being, according
to unanimous verdict, the best display
OF its kind ever held here.

Helped the Local Trade.

TT did the local trade a lot of good,
and am glad that we finally decided
to hold the buy a motor car week I
felt that the public was anxious to
see the different improvements made
since the war ended, but had no idea
that such enthusiasm was stored up
in the breasts of our Washington
motorists. From all sides l hear of
splendid results due to the display
made, and l know that never since /
have been in the business have / seen
so many people in my establishment
Yes, ! heartily indorse this form of
display over the old style, and think
the city could stand at least two

had such success. as 1 was afraid the
less enthusiastic might have cause for
complaint. l would like to thank the
papers for their help, too."-E. J.

over such a successful undertaking.

Never have I seen such interest dis
played by the public in things automo-

rooms and found conditions the same
everywhere.
"I was little put out at not hav-
ing my closed car Chandler models

Tuesday and 1 felt happy. Unques-
tionably this is the proper way to
hold an automobile show, and here
after l will do all in my power to
make the others see it. The papers

told it was history-maKing epoch in

over all makes of cars, but it is much
more beneficial to the dealer, who

dents in the tenders by hamm ering
them with a block of wood without
removing them from the chassis. as
SO many car owners do. Inevitably
this treatment leaves the tenders bat
tered in appearance and it may even
cause more extensive damage. The
only safe method is to remove the
fender from the. car. place it on the
bench, and hammer out the dents with
a mallet and block of wood shaped
to Mt into the curve of the fender.
Many car owners store their vehi-
cles in cold garages and pour hot
water into the water system in the
morning to assist starting. If this
operation is not carefully carried out
air locks are likely to form in the
cylinders or piping. especially in an
old car where there are certain to be
more or less deposits of grease de
rived from the pump. In this way
the car will run for some miles before
t., water gets hot enough to break
the lock and the reduced quantity of
water left boilS.

View of Association Officers.

When interviewed by the automo-
bile editor of The Star the officers of
the association had the following to
say:
I'VE felt the time was propitious for
an automotive display, but little did
we dream that the undertaking would
prove to be such a tremendous sue
cess. l have been in close touch with
most every dealer in the city during
the week and all report wonderful re-
suits Our place of business was
crowded every afternoon and evening
and. while we made our share of
sales. the most important part to US
was the many new friends we made
on account of our display. l can
truthfully say that at first 1 was
somewhat dubious about the indi-
vidual display. idea, but after what I
have seen will cast my vote always
for an open-house week instead of
the old style auto show held under
one roof."-Rudolph Jose. general
