Attention to Oil
In Crank Case Is
Needed Regularly

Regular attention TO the oil in
your cars crank case will insure
good service So far as the engine is
concerned.
A new car, or one recently over
hauled. should get a new change OF
oil after it's first 400 miles. There
after the oil may be renewed at
every 1,0O0-mile mark.
If there is sediment in the crank
care, the case should be flushed with
kerosene. After draining the kero-
sene. put in a pint Of cylinder oil
TO clean out all kerosene thoroughly.
The oil screen should be taken out
and cleaned OF all foreign matter.
This is best done by shaking it in
a pail Of gasoline.
The crank case may also be clean
ed inside and out az this time. Kero-
sene applied with a stiff bristle
brush is the best cleaner.
In replacing the oil pan be sure
that the gasket is not broken. A
new one ought TO be put in for

Repair old Car
Or Buy Ne1O One
AutOiSt Problem
Question Becoming More Seri.
Gus as Prices of Used Cars
Are Adjusted.

Shall I continue 20 run the old
car at a constantly increasing ex-
pense for repairs or overhauling, or
buy a new one free from oubles?"
This IS the question that con-
fronts thousands Of motor car own
ers today" says Harry G. Wool
worth; local distributor Of the Column
bia Six line. And the question IS
becoming a more serious one every
day because the price of used cars
is rapidly being adjusted downwards
to meet the cuts made by practically
every car manufactures.
Another angle from which the
problem should be looked at IS this
is the supposed economy OF driving
an old car until it falls apart econ
omy at all? Many owners are getting
wise TO the fact that instead of prac-
ticing economy they are really ad-
ding TO their expenses by driving the
old bus around.
"They VIII Wear Out"
Cars will wear out. There IS no
use denying that fact After a car
gets TO a certain stage Of wear the
real expense begins. At first the
owner will spend his Sundays fixing
the old bus up. thereby depriving
himself Of an entire day when he
and his family could be out in the
country or enjoying themselves in
the cooling waters Of some lake. At
last he gets disguised and takes the
car into a service station for an
overhauling and gets a nice bill. His
tires are going too.
There can be no question that af-
ter car reaches a certain age it Is
real economy 10 get rid of it and
buy new one. Now is the time for
many an owner 10 do just that.
Prices have been reduced on every
well known make, ours included.
VIII excessive repair bills on the old
car plus the trouble it gives Offset
any further price reduction? That
is a question the owner must de-
eide"

HFJPFTU HINTS.

Moving the tires forward as they
wear is one OF the best ways 10 pro-
long their life. If you start with
all new tires, run them for about
half their guaranteed mileage. and
then exchange front and rear. The
greatest strain and wear comes on
the rear tires. and so these should
always be the strongest and newest.
AS for the right and left sides,
the right wears first, because the
road is rOugher, the weight Of the
car is thrown that way by the crown
OF the road. SO move your tires
forward as they wear out IN the fol-
lowing sequence: The new tire
should be placed on the right rear
then moved to the left rear, then 10
the right front, then TO the left
front
A very handy tool IS a portable
vulcanizer. with It the tube may
be patched and expense and time
may be saved. 1t may also be used
TO close small cuts IN the tread OF
the outer casing thus prolonging
its life The method Of using 1t
may be mastered after a few at
tempts. Use an old tube to practice
on.
II YOU use an enamel cover for
your tires, be sure you put It on
right side UP. Sometimes we find
one put on upside down. which will
cause II 10 hold the rain instead Of
shedding It
It IS not enough 70 carry an extra
spare or two. pumped up, and an
extra tube or so under the rear seat.
Carry a complete patching OUTFIT
and a blowout patch and tire sleeve.
They take very little room and may
save a lot OF time when on long
trip. as there is no telling how
many blowouts you may have on
any one trip.
