On the better cars. or any car for that matter. that comes to us and which warrants 1t, we absolutely pull the motor from the frame, disas- semble the rear end and transmits sion, take the springs out, the fend- CTS off, and otherwise take the car to pieces and come as near giving the car a factory assembling job as is possible. In that way. we are enabled to check over every wearing part. and if found to be worn, or lubrica- ton to be faulty, the condition is rec tified.
 Some of the cars that come to us of course. do not warrant this treat ment. but in that case. the prospective purchaser is appraised of their true condition, as near as we can give it. and left to judge for himself.
 Tt costs real money to give a car this treatment. and naturally, the price may be a little higher thar some other car in apparently the same condition from outward appear ance- But it is money in the pocket of the purchaser to buy a used car al llttle n1Sner price. ana nave reason able assurance that his repair bills will not start piling up on him from | the start.

sholders on the wheel which hold the demountable rim are the least bit worn. This occurred recently and was noticed only because the valve stem came through the wheel hole at an acute angle. This vas caused by the rim and tire creeping around. this tending to pull the valve stem out of its place. If the valve stem is held firmly by means of a cap. then the strain falls on the lower portion of the stem and the portion of the inner tube surrounding it. Tn the case mentioned the pull was so great that the valve stem was cut almost in two. Also in tightening the rim Tugs be sure that you tighten in the cor rect order. If they are frightened one after the other. in order around he rim. there is apt to be too much space on one side and too little on the other.
 Tighten one lug and then another which is nearly opposite. and so on around.

BROKEN PANEs

Convertible models are generally fitted with patent window anti-rat- tiers in the form of rubber tipped screws which press against the win dows If these anti-rattlers are used for the door windows the owner should be careful not to slam the door when the device is set. The result of this will probably be a broken glass. It is quite clear that if the screw protrudes out so far that it can touch the pane or its frame. if the door is slammed the pane will strike the screw and be broken. It would seem that the safest thing to do is to turn the anti-rattier away from the pane before the door is opened or remember to close the door with out slamming it.

In obtaining complete ownership and management of the Studebaker franchise for this section of Arizona, M- P Barret. presiden- of M. P. Bar ret. Inc. successors to Barret and Pottherg. Inc. has attained a goal for which he aimed in 1911.
 In February. 1911, Mr. Barret, sec ing the great future that the automo- bile industry was bound to enjoy. set put to find his place in that great business It was only natural that the name of Stakeholder. which has been an honored trade name for near iy four generations of American in dustrial history, was the one to which he was most strongly drawn. So he left the old family homestead at Hem derson.- Ks- for Detroit, where the automobile factory of the Studebaker corporation was located.
 With no strings to pull. and with honest intention as his only asset. MT. BArret was sent to the parts as- sembiy department. where his first job was running the die threading the fan spindle bolt Even in this humble position. Studebaker was quick to recognize ability and effort. and he was sent from one department to the other. until at the end of a year and a half. he had been through the en- tire factory, and emerged a full fledged service manager.
 In appreciation of his ability and integrity. the company thsn sent him out into the territory of Michigan the cradle of the automobile indus try as travelling service representa- tive. At that time the automo bile was not the finished, certain machine that we have today. and only those of proven ability were entrusted witf the problems of service which were presented to the service manag ger He was later transferred from Michi- gan to the states of Minnesota, Wis consin and South Dakota. as the au. tomobile was creeping west with ths

new conditions arising and new prob lems to be met.
 In 1915 he was called to the factory and given instructions for the han ding of the entire West. from the Mississippi river to the Pacific coast as special service instructor. In this capacity he made one state after the other, instructing dealers and me chanics of the West in the care ana repair of Stakeholder automobiles. By the year 1916 the business has reached such proportions. that his territory was cut down to the Pacific coast. With 24 men under him. each of his own teaching and training. MT. Barret set out to put the Studebaker ..oyer'' on the coast. How thoroughly this was accomplished can best be appreciated by statistics that show the Stakeholder to have been, and still is the largest selling automobile in the west in it's price class.
 Tn 1917 MT. Barret was made as- sistant manager of the San Francisco branch of the Studebaker corporation of America. In 1913 he was made district manager of the affairs of the corporation and to hinr was entrusted the entire work of distribution for the coast, as well as the great export trade the company had with the Orient New Zealand and Australia.
 Mir. Barret continued in this ca pacity until late in 1919. when he came to the Salt River valley as president of the firm of Barret and Pottberg, Inc. Studebaker distrib- tutors for this section of the state, continuing in this capacity until re- certly when he bought the remaining stock of his company. How we'll he has succeeded here is best appreciat- ed by the fact that more Studebaker motor cars have been placed in this section under his leadership, than ir any like period in the history of this community.

HOUDA|LLES IRON OUT ROUGH SPOTS
 IN NEVADA ROADS

While Nevada Is noted for good many things. highways are not one of them. Our neghboring state has some of the worst roads in the world, and sand, chuck holes and mountains are only few of the things that make going rough.
 So when Bill Bramlette and his Lincoln road runner started out re- gently on the famous Nevada road race and completed the 1.0o0-rDus jaunt in something around 29 hours. running time. motor enthusiasts of the West sat up and rubbed their eyes. The course was one of the toughest in the country and the run was a terrific strain on car even at low speed: at high speed 1t was something awful.
 And Bill Bramlette freely admits that one of the biggest factors that contributed to his victory was the HoudailIe shock absorher equipment on his Lincoln. The Houdaflles ironed out the futs and chuckholes, said BramIette. "ayE made 1t poss ble to maintain hir' speed over terrible roads Houdai. /s are wonderful thing and wouldn't be without them"
 NJ. H. Llewellyn. sales manager of the Houdaille Pacific company. local distributors for these shock absorb CTS. says that this Is only one oi many similar boosts given to Hou- daflles hy men who are in position to know. over 1000 sets have heen installed by the local company in the past few raonfhs and not nnIv ccn1- plete satisfaction hut genuine en- thusiasm has been the result in every case.
