OTHER
FRANKLIN IS
CLOSED CAR

That the inclosed motor car is
steadily growing in favor with the
American public is revealed in sta
tistics just published by the Class
Journal company, covering inclosed
cars produced in this country since
1918. These figures show that sedan,
brougham coupe and other types
have rapidly increased in favor, and
from being luXuries or novelties are
now regarded as necessities.
CLOSED cars represented 1.5 per
cent Of total production in 1915 de-
clares Bob Hunsick local Franklin
man. There was no change in 1915,
but for the succeeding years, 1917,
1918. 1919, 1920 and 1921, the per-
centage Of production representing
closed cars was per cent, per cent,
10 per cent. is per cent and % per
cent, respectively.
Commenting on these figures S.
r. Ackerman, sales manager for the
Franklin Automobile company has
recalled the spirit of skepticism with
which the sedan, which was first Of
fered the American public in 1913 by
the Franklin Automobile company
was received. During that year the
company built and sold 13 closed cars.
Later the brougham was added to

ESSEX RAIL CAR
'DRAWS CROWDS
IN Los ANGELES

Nothing attempted for some time
has drawn the interest of the motor
ing public like the recent Essex rail
iaunt from Los Angeles to Phoenix
and back, according to George Mo-
Rarity of the Harold l.. Arnold,
Phoenix branch. Moriarity reports
that when Harold l.. Arnold, Hudson
and Essex distributor, sent an Essex
roach over the rails Of the Santa Re
from Los Angeles TO Phoenix and
back by way Of the Grand Canyon
he apparently opened a new avenue
for the disposal of automotive prod
ucts. The performance of this car
made plain that with slight mechan-
1cal changes its use for official in
spection trips on railways is peN
fectly practicable, necessitates the
service of only two instead of five
men and will require equipment cost
ing approximately $4,000 instead OF
$3.50 900 as at present.
A few days after the Essex had
covered the round trip Of 1850 miles
without the slightest mechanical
trouble. averaging more than 40
miles an hour counting delays or
avery character, it was transferred
from the Santa Fe shops to the sales
room of Harold Arnold the distrib-
utor at Seventh and FTgueroa streets,
Los Angeles, and placed on display.

an object Of the greatest curiosity 10
persons in all walks of life. The hne-
up in front of the corner windows OF
the sales room at night, when the
store was closed, has frequently been
such as to obstruct the sidewalks.
During the day statesmen have been
busy answering questions to those
interested in the coach and its per-
formance on the rails.
Distance has not prevented woe
spread interest in the feat OF the
speedy closed car. Inquiries as to
the features Of its Los Angeles-to-
Phoenix trip have come to Arnold
from a dozen points in various parts
Of the country. From Chicago, from
Omaha. from Denver, from Albu--
oueroue from San Francisco ana
other cities have come requests for
data and for photographs. the inter-

TIME To TUNE UP
CAR FOR SPRING
BY PLUG SPARKS


Whether your car has been In use
all winter or whether it has been
lacked up, it will need a certain
amount of attention to put it in fit
condition to run. The car that has
been on Jacks will need generous
cleaning. after which all oil compart :
ments should be drained and cleaned
and refilled with fresh lubricant. The
gear compounds should be fairly
heavy for warm weather work.
Grease should be used for spring
shackle belts and other parts pro-
vided with suitable cups or pressure
nipples. A car that that been lacked
up all winter does not deteriorate
unless rust has set in, but if you
were thoughtful you would have
provided against this in the fall by
greasing those parts. However, rust
is removable by means Of Kerosene
or special rust removers. All bear
ings should be repacked with grease.
This applies only to chassis bearings,
such as those in the wheels, steering
knuckle pins, perhaps, and the like.
Brakes should be looked over and
the linkages oiled copiously. Lubri-
cation Of the entire chassis and slight
adjustment here and there are all
that really will be needed. The tires,
il they were properly stored, perhaps.
have not deteriorated much, but if
they were left on the car in a cold
garage they undoubtedly will have
lost much resiliency due to hardening
of the rubber. There is nothing you
can do to them.
A car that has been run all winter
must be gone over very thoroughly.
The procedure is somewhat the same
as for the car in storage except that
adjustments will be necessary to
greater degree. Water and mud no
doubt have done their damage in
rusting spring leaves and in covering
the underneath parts of the chassis.
A good cleaning is therefore very es-
sential. The change to different oils
