The total number of automobile drivers in the United States greatly exceeds the number of cars-more than 7.500.00o. Others who have never driven a car know something of it's op- eration through riding as passengers.
 With all it's usefulness, the automo- bile is not a complicated machine.
 Medium weight cars, in particular are designed with the greatest sim plicity and fewer parts. It is as easy to care for such an automobile as to drive it. And this in great measure accounts for their popularity
 People have learned that to keep this type of car running and get the utmost service from it requires only the application of common sense

Mary stood by smiling her approval of the performance.
 With his penchant for being first in everything, Fairbanks ordered the tires about a year ago when ground was broken for the new Goodyear fac tory at Los Angeles, Doug knows good tires and wants them to come up smil- ing after a world of punishment. So he took no chances and got his order in carly No doubt he will put his first California native son cords through a series of stunts worthy of their famous owner

AUTO REGISTRATION FIGURES

Automo bile registration figures for 1920 indicate that there is one car roll ing for every sixteen people in the United States. This is far in advance of the showing for England. the most extensive user of cars in Europe. which has only one car for every eighty per- sons. H. C. Stoddard, statistician for the Goodyear Tire & Rubber company of California, has discovered a sur prisingly encouraging condition in the eleven western states of Arizona. Cali fornia, Colorado Idaho, Montana. Ne vada, New Mexico, Oregon. Utah, Washington and Wyoming. which em- braces the sales territory of the west ern Goodyear. This combined area of a million and a quarter square miles has one car for every eleven persons five better than the average for the rest of the country.
 But the real surprise Is found in the registration of California. Oregon and Washington. This coast region has the best per capita showing of cars of any section in the United States, hay ing car for every nine persons on the Pacific coast. Of the individual states Ohio ranks first with a car to every 6. .09 persons and Mississippi last with one for every 40 .02 of population. But although Mississippi's registration is the lowest in per capita in the Union, II is still twice as high as the showing made by England.

PACKARD RUVABOUT
 HERE OIv DISPLAY

The latest addition to the ranks Of fine cars in Phoenix is the Packard Twin Six Runabout, which arrived Friday, and is now on display at the Smith Vincent show rooms.
 To say that this car is a beauty is putting it mildly. One must needs sit in the deep, comfortable cushions and gaze over the long expanse of hood to the distinctive Packard radiator, to realize the pride of ownership which must be that of the man or woman who purchases this fine equipage.
 The long wheelbase, stylish top, nifty rumble seats, fleeting body lines, rugged cord tires, and the many other attractive features, blend into one beautiful picture. There is consider able speculation along the row" as to what fortunate Phoenician will be driving this Runabout next week.

AUTOMOBILE MOST
 FAMILIAR MACHINE

People generally are more familiar with the automobile than with any other piece of machinery" says Bert Q. Brown local dealer in Chevrolet passenger and commercial cars.
 It is seen on the streets of every city. On the farms and ranches and in sparsely settled regions, everyone knows the automobile and it's purpose.
 It has become the great passenger and commercial transportation me- dium.
 Only specialized workers know the machinery of the railroads intimately enough to operate them But the au- tomobile is quickly mastered by thou sands of new owners every day.

TIRE MEN FIND T HARD TO STABILIZE
 PRICES AT PRESENT

Ten million casings to the graveyard of lost auto tire mileage for 1920! So enormous a waStage cannot fail to eX- ercise an influence on tire prices. In deed the figure is conservative one that 50 per cent of the 40,000, 900 tires manufactured this year. will be suf- fYciently cared for to permit them to deliver half of the mileage built into them by the makers.
 The motorist who is hoping for a price cut that he may buy tires for less than present levels, is overlooking this and other factors that determine costs The law of supply and demand in good tires is operating against reductions and towards higher prices. Manufac turing, overhead, and distributing expenses have already been cut to the bone by new and improved machinery and methods.
 Before the war" prices already prevail among most standard makers. Prices are lower now than they were ten years ago. And this does not take into account that tire mileage, with the Miller company for instance has more than doubled, and that this cost per mile basis is the only real way to determine mileage. If mileage were 1 taken into account, actual cost per
 mile is less than half as much as ten years ago
 1 With uncertain costs of labor and
 materials, it Is by no means certain that present price levels can long be stabilized. Within the past year there has been only one general price chang
 recorded. Another factor necessarily affecting tire prices, both directly and | indirectly is the railroad rate increase Later every one of the 10000, 900 cas- i ings prematurely iunked. must be re
 placed with a new tire. With tire pro-
 duction cut down temporarily, due tc l present conditions, the motorist will dc we'll to buy against a possible short I age. He will certainly not get then l cheaper. and it may De an advance.

SPRINGS SHOULD BE
GIVEN PROPER CARE
Leaves Slide Upon One Another
When Car Moves.
Mud, Dirt and All Foreign Matter Can
Be Excluded by Covering With
Boots-Good Grade Of Leath-
er Substitute Favored.

The leaves of an automobile spring
are intended to slide upon one another
when the car is In motion. Many car
owners allow the springs to get dirty,
to go without fabrication and to be-
come very rusty. The leaves become
so dirty that instead of sliding on
each other, they work almost as II
they were one solid piece of steel.
Then, when the car strikes hole or
n bump in the road the springs are
compressed and instead of each leaf
working as separate unit, the lower
leaves of rusty spring are held fast
20 the upper leaves. The reaction
from the compression of such spring
is many times greater than the reac-
ton of clean, well fabricated spring
where the leaves are allowed to slip
on one another as they should.
The first step toward remedy is to
keep mud and dirt and all foreign
matter away from the springs. This
can be done effectively by covering
them with boots. Some supply stores
carry covers to fit a good range of
sizes of springs, but IL you can't buy
them already made, you should be able
to make them yourself, sewing them
together Of leather or good grade Of
leather substitute, advises Motor Life
Magazine. The advantage of the latter
material is that it is much cheaper
than leather, and being waterproof, 1t
will keep dirt and moisture away from
the springs.
