Some or the newer car models have o--n designed with central lubricat- Ing points and with wick billing de- vices. which require replenishment only once or twice a season. At any rate the substitution of oil for grease for almost any fabrication service Will be benefit to the parts affected.
 Naturally different parts of the mechanism require different lubri- cants. that is to say. different grades of oil. For the gears. the transmits sion. differential and rear axle a heavy oil will be the most satisfac- tory lubricant. Other parts will do better on cylinder oil For the aver age car two grades of oil will pretty well take care of all the fabrication needs.

In addition grease hE- the unfortunate characteristic 0T car rying dirt and foreign matter that .t may pick up. It has distinct draw backs as a lubricant in any location. especially in cold weather. when it ought never be used. In winter the grease it almost certain to become packed against the walls of any case in which it is used. while the gears operate entirely dry.
 When grease is used in cups. it has the characteristic of getting hard so that the cup cannot be turned down properly. and very little fabrication gets to the bearing surface for which 1t is intended.
 On practically all cars of any but the most recent vintage grease cups are fitted at various locations. If the owner desires to substitute oil as a lubricant for the grease. he has prac- tically to replenish the cups every day. In many cases this would be worth the increased labor.

It has been aptly said that the inn portance of fabrication to the proper operation and continued existence of the motor car cannot be over em- phasized. One who follows the devel- opments in the automobile field might be tempted to think the pres ent generation of car owners had been thoroughly educated in this. but then he finds one making some mis- take in fabrication that shows that many car owners still do not know the real meaning of the subject.
 For several years past no wise mo- torist has used grease as a lubricant for his transmission, yet many car owners who ought to know better still employ this heavier lubricant in this

not knowing the habit of the Gre

that the editor of that journal
would not only be fair, but gener-

that the editorial quoted above
from the Ripley Sentinel was a
comment on an editorial paragraph
from the Winston County Journal.
but the Grenada editor did not re-
produce the statement from the
Journal, bee 1use. of course, that
paper is anti and the Grenada Sen

versely commenting on the candi-
dacy of Miss Kearney. Bear in
mind. however, that the Grenada
Sentinel is not supporting Miss
Kearney for tie Senate except to
the extent of encouraging her to
oppose Vardaman, and will not
support her in this campaign any
more than the Ripley Sentinel will
support her. except for the selfish |
purpose mentioned above, unless, |
perchance, she and Vardaman are
the only candidates. Some of the
antiVardaman papers have referred |
to Miss Kearney in terms of deri- |
