CAR SERVICE
IS IMPORTANT
Buyer of Today Demands Best
in Motor Car and an Assur-
ance of Service.

Hardly less important than the de-
signing and building Of high grade mo-
tor car is the matter Of service obtain
able for that car.
The time was, and not SO many years
ago either, that the manufacturer con-
sidered his responsibility to the car buy
or ended when the car was sold.
The car buyer today demands not only
the best in his motor car both IN the
way of appearance and mechanical per-
fection, but he demands also that assur.
ance Of service not possible In the old
days.
The car buyer today demands almost
uninterrupted service from his car. That
means both time and money to him. lie
demands that service wherever he may
be. II anything does go wrong, he wants
to be assured of a service station within
a reasonable distance where he can get
necessary parts and labor.
AS result Of this demand, every
community today has its score of service
stations. Besides carrying stocks of
spare parts, these stations are prepared
to cooperate with the owner in all OF
those things that mean increased ser
vice.
J. J. Cole early realized the growing
Importance of service If the automobile
was to attain the high place it has now
reached. Cole service stations are scat
tered from one end of the country to the
other. They are manned by men trained
in Cole work.
But the Cole service station has gone
a step farther. Cole dealers every
where are being urged to become thor
oughly familiar with road routes in their
territory, to acquire knowledge of special
tours, Of camping outfit requirements
and those things appreciated by the aver
age motorist who is planning or making
@ tour.

AGE IS N0BAR
TO MOTORING
Theory of DIR. Osler That Mans
Usefulness Ended at 60, Upset
by Enthusiastic Autoist.

When DR.. Osler politely pointed out a
few years ago that mans usefulness in
this world ended at the age of CD, or 1o
years less than the allotted three score
and ten, the worthy doctors suggestion
awakened howl OF protest. Every liv-
ing specimen of the genus male who had
passed the sixtieth mile post made it a
point to write, wire, or personally see
the doctor and assure him that the pro-
posed measure was certainly persona non
grata or whatever the diplomats call it.
They assured him that Alexander Ora
ham Bell. Thomas Edison. John Bur
roughs and William, Gladstone managed
to get away with three square meals a
day and do fairly good days work of
say u or IA hours, despite the handicap
nature had imposesd upon them after the
fateful sixtieth year.

and turn very peaceable crowd or men

you think that the doctors theory was

SHOE MOTOR TRUCKS
WITH PNEUMAT|CS
To SAVE HIGHWAYS
Holland Considering Following
Example of Norway to Keep
Traffic From Cutting Roads.

Holland is seriously considering the
advisability of following in the footsteps
of Norway in proposing national iegls-
lation that will specify that motor trucks
of certain capacity must be equipped
with pneumatic tires go as to prevent
damage to roads and to cut down ex-
cessive cost of highway repairs due
to the use of solid tires on heavy load
ed trucks.
Recent cable dispatches to the Good
year Tire & Rubber company state that
the Dutch Roads congress will meet 10
September for the purpose of discuss
ing details of the proposed legislation
and making recommendations to the
government on the matter of specifying
certain pneumatic tire equipment Tor
motor vehicles.
In Norway the legislation to become
effective this summer provides that all
| trucks used for commercial purposes
must be equipped on all four wheels
with tires of at least five inch treads.
This means that up to two tons, trucks
must be pneumatically shod: from two to
three and half tons either pneumatic
or solid equipment of more than five
| inch tread is permissible, while all
| trucks of more than three and half
| tons capacity may run on solids.
| 1t is believed that the proposed leg
| islation for Holland VIII be sHghtly d1
| ferent from that of Norway IN that
| trucks up to one ton capacity must run
on pneumatic tires.
Cut Up the Roads.
| Both countries found that the trucks
equipped with solid tires have caused
severe disintegration of the roads asd
caused heavy expenditure of money for
repairs.
! Norway estimated that its country
roads would be ruined within two years
| if some relief was not found. Just what
has been Hollands experience is not re-
vealed In cables already received.
