How to Protect
Your Motor Car
In Cold Weather

The average car owner is seldom
IN q position to know Just what
must be done to his car in the WIN
ter to approach as nearly as possible
conditions as they exist in warm
weather. For this reason" a v Gus
Fleischli, local s%tudebaker dealer,
the following suggestions should
be carefully observed by automobile
owners"
Before any anti-freeze solution is
used. the water circulating system
should be inspected for leaks, and
repairs made. If necessary. 1t Is

Do not use anti-freeze preparations
containing calcium chloride or other
similar compounds. as they corrode

The only satisfactory solution of
which we know is alcohol and water.
Denatured alcohol Is preferred, but
wood alcohol can be used. Wood
alcohol often contains free acetic

If acid is present, admage to the
radiator viii result.
Glycerlne is sometimes used with
alcohol to reduce the evaporation to
a minimum. However, it Is rather
expensive and also has a tendency to
damage the rubber hose connections.
If glycerine is used, mix the alcohol
and glycerine in equal proportions
and use this mixture in the same per-
centage as alcohol in the above table.
1t must be remembered hat it is
necessary to- add alcohol from time
to time to replace what is lost due
to- evaporation. Whenever necessary
to fill the radiator, to replace loss
by evaporation, use a mixture of 40
per cen water and 60 per cent
alcohol.
During the extremely cold weather
the fan belt a be loosened, which
will reduce the flow of air through
the radiator and thereby allow motor
to run warmer than it otherwise
would.

Essex Feature
The Enclosed Models

Hudson and Essex are bringing the
whole world around to a preference
for enclosed cars. Even a number
Of export markets now are asking
for a majority of their shipments in
coaches and sedans, according to
word received from the Hudson fac
tory by Mr.. f. Sundin, Hudson
Essex dealer.
THAT is unusual" said Mr.. Sun
din because motoring customs in
foreign countries have been entirely
different from those in America.
Many motorists ride with tops down
AS Americans did ten years ago.
The automobile isn't ou%tstandingly
the article of utility it is here in the
United States.
But the unquestioned a~ll-weather
advantages of the closed car, and the
unrivaled value which Hudson and
Essex have built into their coaches
is changing this.
THE demand for closed cars has
grown gradually, since Hudson-Essex
brought out the Coach, until the
majority of orders now tends that
way. 1t is only a matter of time
that the same trend which followed
Hudson-Essex leadership in America
will extend into other countries. One
tropical distributor was astounded to
find that the coaches are yer more

far in a month the oil should be
changed once a month regardless of
mileage.
The oil pan should be removed and
washed out with kerosene OCCASION
ally in order to prevent any accumu-
lation of sediment which might have
a detrimental effect upon the bear
ings.
Another condition which must be
guarded against in winter is the for
nation Of water in the crankcase. Al
slight formation Of water is some
thing which Is natural and cannot
be prevented. 1t is aggravated, how
ever, by the injudicious use of the
choke. frequent starting and stop
ping the motor as might be occas-
failure to change the motor oil at
Toned by numerous short drives, and
proper intervals.
Water. il allowed to collect in the
oil circulating system. will pocket
and freeze very readily, stopping the
circulation of oil. A heavy sludge
will also form which Is very detri-
mental to the motor.
To prevent the evils of water ac-
emulation. it is wise to drain a
cupfull of oil from the crankcase
once or twice a week. This should
be done while the motor is warm,
but after 1t has been allowed to stand
idle for about ten minutes. This Is
easily accomplished by means of the
drain valve handle conveniently To-
Gated in the right-hand side Of the
crankcase. Any water present will
be thus removed.
A vital point to remember in con-
nection with the storage battery is
that at a temperature of 10 degrees
F. its efficiency drops about so per-
cent. Also, it is much more difficult
to crank the motor because of the
effect of the lower temperature ON
the fabrication. Because of the in
complete vaporation of the fuel when
the motor is cold, slightly more
cranking is required to start the
motor.
Because of the heavier drain on
the battery and its decreased effic-
iency in the winter, the energy taken
from the battery should be conserved
as much as possible. When starting
the motor, throw out the clutch,
which will prevent unnecessary turn
ing of gears in the transmission

1t will assist greatly In annroxi.

/ 1t will assist greatly In approx
mating the summer temperature of
the motor If a radiator cover is
used. With a radiator cover that is
adjustable, a large part Of the radi-
ator can be covered, allowing the
adjusted to a suitable opening to
motor to readily warm up, and then
keep the motor running warm but
still not allowing it to overhead.
To obtain maximum efficiency
from the low gravity gasoline now
being used, the cir entering the car
buretor should be moderately heated.
In hot weather, the normal air tenn
perature Is high enough. Provision
is made. however, for heating the air
entering the carburetor, in cold
weather. The temperature is regu-
lated by a sleeve over the carburetor
air intake. which should be closed
during the winter months. It will as
sist greatly in approximating the
summer temperature of the motor
II the raditor cover is used as men
toned above.
In starting the motor. make sure
that the choke is pulled all the way
out until the motor starts, then push
1t in slightly until the motor warns
UP but do not have it even partly
out longer than is necessary. Do
not race an engine to warm it up,
run 1t at an engine speed approx
mating 20 miles per hour.
Always use a light, cold test motor
oil in cold weather. The motor oil
should be drained more frequently in
winter than in summer, as the cold
temperature ~aggravates the dilution
of the oil by raw fuel, especially
when the choke is kept closed too
long. 1t is not advisable to drive
a car until after the motor has been
turning over at a rate of speed ap-
proximating 20 miles per hour long
enough to give the oil a chance to
get well into all of the working parts.
We recommend under average con-
ditions, the oil to be drained approx
imately every 500 miles in order to-
guard against excessive yea of the
bearings or cylinder walls.
Cars in short-trip service in cold
weather, on ccount of extreme di-
luton of the oil, should have the
motor oil changed every 800 to 500
miles. If the car is not driven this

BOARD OF EDUCATION
ELECTS OFFICERS AT
THEIR LAST MEETING
Instructs Treasurer to Divide
Money Secured From Sale of
Bond Among Local Banks

At meeting of the Marietta Board
of Education held this week the fol-
lowing officers were elected: j. H.
Boston, president; M. L. Mcneil,
vice-president, and T. w. Read, Jr.,
treasurer. These officers served the
board so faithfully last year that
they were unanimously reelected.
The board also voted to request
the treasurer to divide the bond
money equally among the three
banks provided that each would pay
a minimum rate of 3 IL per cent.
The president was also requested
to appear before the council at its
next meeting to thank the mayor
and council for their assistance in
putting the bond election over and in
selling the bonds.
The work on the school is pro-
crossing rapidly. The plans have not
yet been completed but it is hoped
that they will by the fifteenth of the
current month. If this is the case
work will start by the first of March
at the latest.

SPECIAL CONSTRUCTED
WHISKEY CAR SEIZED
BY COUNTY OFFICERS
Occupants Turned Loose After
Paying Fines and Assess
ments on Car

The treasury Of Cobb county was
enriched Monday by the amount of
500 as a result of the capture of a
seven-passenger automobile contain
ing over 800 quarts of rye whiskey
and man and woman, by Deputy
Sheriff Grower, of Cobb county and
C. C. Coyle, United States Revenue
officer.
The car, specially constructed
Studebaker, was captured near Ac-
worth Monday morning. The occu-
pants, who gave their names as Mr..
and Mrs. Max Blackburn, of Savan-
nah, were brought to Marietta and
lodged in the county Jail. They
pleaded guilty before Judge Blair
who fined the man $3.50 and the wo-
man $3.50. After paying an assess
ment of $500 they were allowed to
take their car.
The whiskey was poured into the
sewer behind the court house while
large crowd of thirsty inhabitants
looked with wistful eyes.

Smallpox Situation
Not Alarming Says
The Health Officer

Don't be alarmed over the small
pox situation over the county. AL
though we have had some in most
every section of the county, Cobb
county has had comparatively little
considering the fact that there is so
much in Atlanta and other sections
of the state.
There are two methods Of controll-
ing smallpox, viz: Isolation and vac
cination. Every case that has been
reported to me has been quaran-
tined, and | have vaccinated about
1900 people since Christmas.
The count commissioners seeing
the Importance of the eradication of
smallpox voted Tuesday to build a
pest house, which will more satisfac-
torily isolate those who have the dis
ease. They also voted for the coun-
ty to pay for all the vaccine points
used by the Board of Health in the
future. This not only is to encour-
age vaccination but eliminates the
cost of the vaccine points to the pa

COUNTY POULTRY
ASSOCIATION MADE
PERMANENT AFFAIR
Breeders Met at Marietta Feb. Q.
and Elected Officers for
Coming Year

On Saturday, Feb. 2, quite a num-
Der of Cobb county's poultry fam
clers met at the Marietta Chamber
OF Commerce and organized them
selves into an active Association. BY
laws governing the organization were
adopted and the following officers
for 1924 elected: c.. w. Fowler.
president; L. j. Steinhouser, vice
president and G. Sam Wilcox secre-
tary and treasurer. Executive com
mittee: c. w. Fowler, G.. Sam vii
cox, Ralph Manning, E. G. Dyson
and j. W. Legg.
The object of the organization is
to promote the poultry business in
this section. Other counties in Geor-
gia are making great Roadway in
this industry and Cobb is much more
fortunately situated as to market
ing, since we are within few min
utes of Atlanta.
There is money in the poultry bus
mess from both the fancy and COM
mercial standpoint. Not everyone
can make good as a faneier, but
anybody can from Commercial
point, who starts right and gives the
same attention to their chickens that
they would to other lines of bust
ness.
If you are not member Of the
Cobb County Poultry Association,
you should join at once and help to
boost and make Cobb county second
to none in poultry.
