SPARE LAMP BULBS.
Proper Focusing Also Essential to
Headlights.

Just as important as the carrying
of spare tires is the carrying OF spare
lamp bulbs says Motor Life. To hnd
yourself in the country, miles from
a supply store or garage, without
adequate light, can only be consid-
cred a predicament Of the first mag
nitude. and the most effective insur-
ancs against it is an assortment OF
spare bulbs. You should at least
have an extra headlight and tall
light bulb Sidelights and flashlights
bulbs are secondary considerations.
And perhaps it might be well TO
mention, while we are on the sub
iect, that every time u new bulb Is
placed in headlight. -efocusing Is
in order There is considerable va
ration in lamp bulbs and their com
porent parts The So-called leading
in wires vary in length. in manu-
facture the stem of the bulb. which
carries the leadins-in wires and the
filament, cannot be inserted with
mathematical accuracy. And since
the focal error of even one-sixte enth
of an inch reduces the candle-power
by two-thirds. and since the COM
bined variations in f1lament, leading
in wires, stems and bases often ex-
coed a sixteenth of an inch, it is
plain that the insertion of a new
bulb is more than apt to make re-
focusing essential to proper illumina-
ton.

1. A leak In hollow carburetor float
noticeable can be located by placing
the float in boiling hot water. The
gasoline within the float will vapor-
ize under the heat and emerge from
the leak in the float in small bubbles.
When bubbling ceases remove the
float from The water and repair the
leak.

mixture is to shut off the flow of
gasoline to the e.rburetor, run the
engine and accelerate its speed
Then set the needle valve so that the
cylinders will get smaller amount

MOTORISTS ARE URGED
TO GIVE FRIENDLY AID
Just a Little Assistance on the
Road Is Often Of Very
Great Value.

One of the big pleasures of modern
motoring lies in the fact that whether
the trip is for a hundred miles or a
thousand. the motorist has every rea-
son to feel sure that he will finish
his journey without having to climb
out of his car to undertake the dis
agreeable Job Of making repairs on
the road.
But now and then some mishap
occurs, and courtesy of the road
that all motorists can extend with lit
tie inconvenience to themselves is an
offer of help to a fellow motorist
whose car has become stranded. Such
an offer is particularly timely If the
scene of the mishap is some point
whose remoteness from garage
would make it difficult to get assist
Iance.
Even the most careful owners are
caught unawareS at times and ma
themselves far from home and minus
some tool that Is essential to making
repair. For instance, not so long
ago a man who prides himself on ms
equipment got puncture on lonely
country road. He felt he had no
cause for worry. for locked on the
back of his car were two new tires
ready for just such an emergency.
tires he could not find the key to the
lock- He was just getting ready 10
wreck the lock when a car drew up
with an offer of assistance. 1t hap
pened that the good Samaritan had
key that opened the lock, and put
an end to the difficulty.
With the number of woman drivers
rapidly increasing, some of them not
skilled in coping with tire troupe {,
or bad ignition, there is an especiai
need of chivalrous attitude on tne
part of experienced drivers. me
women probably ought not 10 De
driving at all. unless they kno"
enough about car to be able to make
simple repairs, but the fact remains
that some are without the requiSite
knowledge. Moreover. equal sunrase

status of man to the point where tne
average male would be able TO squa!e Z

no heed to a woman in distress.
In order to extend an offer OF lhiS
sort it is not necessary to go throuen y
a lot of formality-a mere wave Oh

kindly courtesy. says the United
States Tire Company, that adds 10 .he
low of motoring and increases the
pride OF motorists in their class.

WATCH THE TIRE PUMP.
Little Attention Will Make It Far
More Effective.

Often a little attention to the
tire pump will make it more effective
when the time comes for a tire to be
inflated. Much more manual effort is
ordinarily expended in hand tire in
flation than would be necessary if the
pump were kept in the proper condi-
ton just like any other part of
the car.
The most common pump trouble is
leakage of the air past the plunger,
usually due to worn condition of the
leather washer, or to the TACT that the
leather is dry and out of shape SO
that it does not fit closely 20 the
pump barrel all around. If badly
worn, the only thing to do is to re-
place it; if merely hardened soften
it with some neatfoot oil Plain Iu-
bricating oil will do almost as well II
the other is not available.

The Automobile Association and Mo-

step is said to have been taken as the

from motorists regarding the treat

The following list has been prepared
as requisite of all hotels holding an

"a welcome on arrival; a refresh

6OOD VIII TRIUMPHANT Under TEST

AS this message is being written,
Dodge Brothers daily, weekly
and monthly production sat the
highest point in it's history.
The most casual sort of inquiry
will SATISFY you that this pro-
duction is being absorbed as it is
delivered.
Within sight and sound as we
write, a great addition to Dodge
Brothers immense works, is
being rushed to completion.
The interesting thing about this
situation is, that it is not likely
that a half a hundred people have
ever bought Dodge Brothers
Motor Car just because they
wanted a motor car.
Of the more than half a million
who have bought 1.-THE over
whelning majority did so be-
cause of the name it bore.
It has always been treated, by
the American people in particu-
lar, as an exception always set
apart, and singled out, and never
Judged by ordinary standards.
It has always been thought of,
and is still thought of, first, and
foremost, and all the time, only
in terms of it's goodness, and the
results it gives.
All of this is wonderful, in one
way, and quite natural and logi-
cal in another.
It all dates back to the day when
John and Horace Dodge con-
ceived and designed and finally
built the car-after warning each
other, and their associates, not
even to think of it in any other
terms than the best obtainable
value.
They began with a few almost
absurdly simple principles,
bluntly expressed and rigidly
executed, about decency and
honor and integrity - such as
most Of us wrote in our copy
books at school
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1920-10-10

They reduced these old copy
book maxims to a splendid and
scientific system, pouring more,
and more, and Still more value
into the car, and then marshall
ling all the resources of modern
massed manufacture to get their
product into the hands of the
people at an honorable and an
honest cost.
These policies and principles
have never been changed, and
never will be changed, by so
much as a hairs breadth; and
they have come to be recognized
and accepted as Dodge Brothers
principles wherever motor cars
are driven.
It has all happened as John and
Horace Dodge planned it quite
simply, naturally, and automat-
ically, all over America, and all
over the world.
People do discriminate, as Dodge
Brothers contended they would;
people will find out when a
motor car is we'll built and gives
good service and great good
value.
Dodge Brothers market today is
where they planned to locate
and establish it-in the mind
and the heart of every man and
woman who admires good work,
we'll done.
It will last, and it will keep ON
growing, as it has kept on grow
ing for five years Easter than
Dodge Brothers works could
keep pace with it,, as long as
the number of those who believe
that a manufacturer should build
to serve and not merely to SELL
continues to increase.
All is we'll with Dodge Brothers
today, because John and Horace
Dodge builded well in the Begin
ming, and because their business
will continue to build well until
the end
