DID YOU KNOW

That some tires look more inflated than others? It depends largely upon the design of the side walls and is therefore more of delusion than any thing else. Oversize tires, of course, usually have more of a flat appearance. That if you oversize your rear tires alone you should carry an oversize spare for best results in event of a rear wheel puncture? Your regular size spares would answer the purpose for 50 or 100 miles of running, but a difference of an inch in tire diameter will have a tendency to wear the diff ferential. It will be as though you kept describing a wide circle instead of running straight.
 That on q damp day 1t is permissi- ble and advisable to polish an enam- eled hood when it is moderately warm? Never in dry weather?
