knowledge of Car
Benefit to Owner
Local Durant Dealer Declares
Purchaser Is Often Un-
Informed.

"An automobile owners duty Is
to know his car thoroughly" states
r. H. Harper. president of the Har-
per Motor Company. local Durant
dealers. when he purchases the
car he should have the dealer in
form and instruct him in regard to
the basic mechanical principles of
its construction and operation. He
should devote especial attention to
those parts which commonly re-
.quire attention.
In the last few years automotive
design has been SO greatly simpll-
ned that almost anyone can famil-
iarize himself with what is essen
tial TO the proper care and opera
ton Of his car.
This explains why the car whose
chassis is simplicity itself is so
popular. 1t Is profitable to have a
car whose each unit is mounted
separately. for then the cost OF
service is cut down considerably.
For instance, when the service me-
chanic does not have to dismount
the greater part of the chassis be-
fore he gets at the unit which
needs attention II Is a great saving
in time. toll and trouble and. Incl
dentally. a financial saving to the
owner.
Again. this simple arrangement
of parts enables the owner to make
minor adjustments himself. By
studying his cars parts he can an
ticipate and prevent and thereby
eliminate trouble almost entirely.
Most motor troubles are the di-
rect results of lack Of knowledge
and carelessness. A proper knowl-
edge of your car and its capabili-
ties Is the best preventive meas
ure.
Just minimum amount of
proper attention and care will keep
a car better and longer. The far
sighted and intelligent driver will
always operate his car to avoid
wear and tear.
Like the human body Is respon-
sive to treatment. so. too. in its
way Is the automobile. And the
quickest and best remedy to any
ailment is prompt and sensible at
tention."
The Washington herald., 1922-08-13

markably sturdy chassis and the
exacting care with which the car
has been designed and constructed
throughout. Is much below that of
the average car. Ninety dollars for
the year is a liberal estimate.
Depreciation Small.
Then there is a matter of de-
probation. With even the most or
dinary care the Earl may we'll be
for at least four years. and even
then have a trade-in value of $3.50
to $500. Subtracting $3.50 from
s1.095 you have $745. Divide this
by and you get s1S6.25-the an
nual depreciation value of the Earl.
Add up these figures and you
get a total which Is s463. almost
to the cent. In other words the
annual cost of running the Earl Is
less than the estimated saving on
railroad fare and hotel bills for a
family of fve in the course of
year.
Yet we have not taken into con-
sideration the fact that the family
owning an automobile saves enter
tainment expenses in a score of
year. For example, instead of at
tending the theaters or the movies.
it's often more fun to go out for a
spin: more fun and cheaper.
"All in all. then, you can easily
see why you ought to own an Earl;
why you can afford to own one"

Little Possibility of
Seeing Gas Shortage

There should be no alarm what
ever over the possibility of there
ever being q gas shortage within
our memory. IL some facts and fs-
ures gathered by Firestone experts
are to be relied upon.
According to what the tire men
say chemists and others are at
work on development of motive fuel
from a dozen different substances.
the more ordinary of which are:
Alcohol, acetol. shafe, tetralene,
molasses gas. rice straw. naphtha
and ordinary straw.
Apart from all this benzol and
kerosene will last as long as wood
and coal exist. Shalene, obtained
from the shale fields OF Colorado,
Is said to offer one of the best sub
stitutss for gas yet known and
there appears to be almost an end
less supply of this.

Chalmers Reduces
Prices on Motors
Announces Cut Through Lo.
cal Dealer-Includes
All Models.

The announcement of the reduc-
tion In price OF the Chalmers Six
to $11s5 Is one of the most import
ant at the recent price changes, as
IL establishes a new low mark for
fine six-cylinder cars, such as the
Chalmers has always been" say.
H. B. Leary, jr.
The policy of the organization
now producing the Chalmers Six
has been to make the car an out
standing value.
Under price conditions that have
prevailed for the past year, the
value of the Chalmers has been very
pronounced.
But the new price puts Il prac-
tically in a class by itself. 1t is
the lowest price that has ever been
placed on a car at all to- be COM
pared with the Chalmers Six.
The Chalmers has been devef-
oped greatly in the past year and
in 1t six-cylinder possibilities have
been brought to new heights of per-
formance.
This coupled with its extraordi.
nary good looks have won 1t an
overwhelming circle of admirers.
The new price makes II avail
able to a still greater number of
people who appreciate a really fine
six-cylinder car"

There are good many people
right here in this community who
can AFFORD to own an Earl motor
cali but who have not yet bought
one" says H. NJ. Henderson. local

Frhe principal reason for this"
coltinued Mr.. Henderson, "is that
they think they can't afford to own
