O[DSMOb|LE -FOUR
HAS STRONG POINTS
Manager Felter Talks of Me-
chanicaI Advantages Due to
Late improvements.

"Now that people are becoming ac-
customed. at least to certain degree.
to the truly remarkable performing
abilities and other. wonderful quail
ties of the new Oldsmobile Four as a
motor car and as a transportation
unit. the mechanical advantages of
many of the individual improvements
embodied in the new model are COM
ing in for big share of favorable
comment" states c. T. Felter. generel
manager of Oldsmobile Sales Com
pany. distributors for this territory.
Especially enthusiastic are the
comments on the carburetion system
of the Four. A unique improvement.
known as the 'reatomizer,' has been
placed directly above the carburetsr.
The function Of this device is to lead
from the sides of the intake pipe the
heaviest portions of the fuel, which
tend to cling thereon, and to direct
them instead through four small ducts
in the center of the air stream.
This device not only helps in cold
eliminates gasoline deposits in the
crankcase. An exhaust-heated hot
spot is also situated at the Il" OF the
intake manifold.
THE sturdy construction OF the
transmission and rear axle have also
aroused the favorable comment of the
motor wiseacres who have given the
car a careful inspection and trial. A
torque tube of generous proportions
now takes all torsional strains. On
'choppy' roads this Is evident in de-
cidedly improved riding qualities. A
dry-plate clutch of large diameter IS
used in the new car. Alemite lubri-
eating sytsem Is applied to chassis
fabrication with highly satisfactory
results.
with a total piston displacement
of 224 cubic inches, the Oldsmobile
Four has an abundance of power, as
all who have ridden in the car realize
far more, clearly than through the re-
ports. written or oral. of friends or
newspaper experts.
This is especially true II the trip
has been over one of the famous hill
tests which were discovered for the
Four.
Three large exhaust ports in the
cylinder head provide for unusually
efficient scavenging of the burnt
gasses from the cylinders. This is
most important feature and contrib
utes greatly to the unusual power and
responsiveness"

CAR OWNERS GIVE
CARE TO BATTERIES
Motorist Discovered Attention
RepayS in Life of Machine.

Car owners are givins more
thought to their battery's needs these
days, according to II. Nj. Haney
manager OF the Prest -o-Lite Service
Station.
1T hasn't been so long ago that
the average motorlst seldom looked
at his battery, or had IL looked at to
see If IT needed drink or anything.
But times are changing.
Motorists are coming to realize
that their storage battery must be
made to last as long as possible. This
means the regular addition OF dis
titled water every two weeks. VIC
find that lots of motorists never
bother to add distilled water them
selves. but drive around here and le.
us put 1t in for them.
This is a pretty good idea at that.
because there may be some little
thing wrong with the battery that
the motorist himself might not dis
cover. Our boys here always give
batteries the once-over when they
put in the distilled water"

ALCOHOL USED IN AUTOS

Brazil Also Discovers That Pure

Pure alcohol. to which per cent of

With gasoline at So cents a gallon,
motor vehicle operators have turned
to extensive use of the 19-cent alco-

1t has been found, however, that
the pure alcohol induces rust in the
