The Old Mechanic SAYS:

| suppose some people think it's
funny for a repairer to charge 'em
for complete new units, but maybe
they'd be surprised to learn that !
think it's> just as funny that they
don't know why ! do this.
A repairer is supposed to be able to
fix things. SO the moment l order a
new part and put II in they suspect
me of fallin' down on the job. It's
sort of a problem for me to explain
I'm putin in the new parts for their
own benefit.
Feller came in here the other day
with a fan that was in bad shape.
Bearin's were so shot to pieces the
fan wouldn't run over q certain speed
and. Of course. the engine heated up
badly. When l had 4 chance to look
the situation over. l found 1t was
goin to cost more to buy the neces-
sary parts and assemble them than
to buy new fan and put it on. The
first thing the owner said when pre-
sented him with the bill was, "Whatd
" put on a new one for? Anybody
could do that?"
take it that a repairers job Is to
know how to do his work to best ad-
vantage and at least expense to the
owner. Here I've got to use . little
Judgment. II it's cheaper to adjust
the old parts or install a few minor
ones ought to spend whatever time
is necessary to put the thing in shape.
But if It's better to put in a new
unit and save a repair bill later on
ought to 60 ahead and do the right
thing. 1t saves tying up the car for
a longer time, and 1t means that the
owner won't have to be havin' the
trouble remedied a second time.
Sometimes 1t isn't a case Of econ
omy, but of satisfaction. You can fuss
over a lot Of things on q car and fix
'em temporarily, but the owner will
have trouble every few weeks. Maybe
a new unit would save him this. l
wouldn't consider myself much Of q
mechanic unless I could decide this
point for a customer. and / think he
ought to be business man enough to
know that a charge on his bill for
new parts is proof Of economical re-
pairin'

drivers imagine that coasting Is con-
fined to the risky process of running
downhill with the clutch out. This
sort of coasting is neither safe nor
truly economical. II you want to
save gas with safety coast as follows:
Press out the clutch or shift to neu-
trail when 1t is evident that at the
next crossing you will be obliged to
stop, When pulling up % the curb At
points where no maneuvering Is re-
quired to park declutch and switch
off the engine. When you are driving
into your private garage shift into
neutral, switch off the engine and
coast to a stop. In moving up from
one parking space to another the
mere act Of releasing the emergency
brake may render it unnecessary to
start the engine.

Think This One Owe.

That motor cycle officer on the Ave-
nue. may be a clever party. Day after
day he may spin along with never so
much as a reprimand, skipping over
the thoroughfare at 80. sometimes
over. Once or twice a shiver runs up
and down your spine as he unex-
pectcdly spins by just as you are
starting to hit it up. But nothing
happens.
hauling you I'm, not because you hap
pen to be driving a little too fast,
but because he knows that you al
ways drive too fast. That's unfortu-
nate evidence for any motorist to
buck up against.

Anent Buying 4 Car.

Shopping for new car Is greatly
simplifed by keeping in mind the
following facts:
There are very few cars to select
from after you have eliminated those
that are above or below your price
class, those that are not suited TO
your needs and those that are not
well represented locally.
A closed car cannot be built to sell
for the same price as an open car
unless the closed job is cheapened
or the open model overpriced. The

Not Following Him Closely.

Two Parking Pointers.

When making IT habit to leave
the car on public parking grounds for
the day better stop around to see 1t
now and again just to give the i'm
precision that you cannot be relied
upon to stay away any definite num-
Der of hours. This may prevent med
ding with your car. You do not have
to move 1T when you come to look it
over. Any preteXt. such as feigning
to have left something in the car that
you wanted, will do.
During d rainstorm park with the
car headed uphill if you want to avoid
streams OF water running down over
the dash, hood and windshield Let
the water from the top of the car run
off at the back, where 1t Is not so
likely to leave streaks when the car
dries off.

Well, WHY Not?

Annoyed by the glare from YOU,
rear-view mirror at night when the
man behind has his headlights turned
on? And driving a closed car? Well,
then. why not pull down the rear
curtain? 1t is not thick enough to
prevent you from knowing when
there is car behind, yet thick
enough to stop the glare. No use
having glare front and rear.

Worth Remembering.

Slipping Of the fan belt may be
caused by resistance In the fan bear
ings caused by lack Of fabrication.
Dull trimmings are best for the
closed car. Handling them will make
them bright soon enough.

The vogue for heavy corded silk
finds charming expression in the
chapeau made of heavy white benga-
line. The sectional crown as shown
in the picture is a favorite for this
little hat of corded white silk. There
are some outstanding points of espe
cially smart significance in this model
One is. that the bengaline covers ii
firm foundation. rather than being a
soft sports type. The narrow side
bandeau is an unusual feature. Silver
ribbon is a very important factor in
millinery this season. 1t lends its
charm to this model and an added
touch of attractiveness is the white
feather brush darling out from be-
meath the wee brim. In some in
