ply at your earliest convenience. With
assurances of highest regards, I am,
cordially yours,

Motorists realize the necessity of
covering the radiator and hood Of an
automobile In the winter months, be-
cause the rapid radiation Of the heat
results In inefficient operation. A
thermostatic valve set In the outflow
pipe of the water system is used in
many motors for cold weather. A SIM
pie change in the gasket at the outflow
pipe. connecting the water Jackets to
the radiator, is nearly az effective as
the thermostatic valve. It has an ad-
vantage In saving the nonfreezing 90
hutton, commonly employed, from rap
idly boiling away, as often happens
where the radiator is covered and
maintained In q heated condition. The
change In the gasket Is merely in the
substitution Of one having smaller
opening. A gasket Of one-half the nor
