Vulcdnizer Receives
automatic Compressor

An automatic air compressor has
been received by Earl Bath and will
be installed as soon as his vulcan
izing business slackens up enough to
permit of sparing time for it.
The machine starts itself when the
pressure goes down to 80 pounds and
stops itself at 1876. By that means
there is a sufficient pressure for tires
at all hours Of the night regardless
of the presence or not of the opera
tor.
The Ely and Plaza garages are
equipped with compressors Of a SINH
lar type.
