With schools and colleges closed
and vacation time here, young folks
are getting out onto the road and to
all appearances they seem to be go
ing for motoring more than ever be-
fore.
ANY observing person can see 1t
in the traffic along the streets and on
the country highways-at the PIC
MICS, in the parks, at the summer re-
sorts. The number of young men and
women driving cars is everywhere
showing a surprising increase.
Among those youthful motorists
the small, light open car seems to
have the preference by wide mar
gin and the Ford runabout Is by far
the most popular of all. judging from
the number seen upon the streets.
There are of course a number or
reasons for this Ford popularity.
First Of ALL the price is low. This
gives those in moderate circum-
stances an opportunity to enjoy
car, while those of more means may
easily provide the younger members
of the family with a runabout OF
their own at a small outlay and thus
retain the higher priced cars for use
of others In the family.
Even before the vacation season
arrived there were indications that
Ford runabouts had come into in
creased favor, for more of them have
appeared on the streets during the
early spring months this year than
in previous years. 1t Is just about
impossible now to turn onto any street
or road without meeting the familiar

La Another Is Years

: Predictions of vast changes In
motoring and transportation condi-
tions within the next twenty-five
years are growing holder daily, but
one Of the most astounding relates
to turning the roadbeds of struggling
railroad lines into private motor
highways over which motorists may
speed to their hearts delight and
actually beat present railroad time
between principal cities without half
trying.

as they please within reasonable
limits, and it is possible that the rail-
roads will find themselves in a posi-

New Nash Special Six
Now Out

Country-wid interest focused this
week upon the introduction of the
new Nash Special Six and Advanced
Six series now on display here and
in dealer show rooms throughout
the country. Outstanding among the
attractions uncovered in this new
Special Six series and Advanced Six
series are the unique Nash Seaman
body creations and the engineering
refinements. The line includes eleven
distinctive types of body styles. four
on the Special Six cha ssis and seven
in the Advanced Six line. The Spe
cial Six line offers a touring car, a
roadster, a four door sedan and a
two door sedan. The Advanced Six
line includes a five passenger touring
car, seven passenger touring, road
ster. two door sedan, Victoria, four
door coupe and seven passenger Sc
dan. All models in both lines are
equipped with force feed engine
fabrication, four wheel brakes. full
balloon tires and five Budd disc
wheels.

2. The outstanding claim for the
new system of steam cooling for
cars is that the cylinder walls are
always above the dew" or condens-
ing point of the grade of gasoline
used today. The engine is saved ex-
cessive wear through reduction in oil
dilution.
g. Actual tests showed that the
reduction in speed and acceleration
due to the use of balloon tires is
negligible. Over rough roads greater
speed can be attained with safety.
The tires, however, must be up to
required pressure.
4. Never fill the radiator to the
brim particularly in hot weather.
Increased expansion will force an ex-
cessive amount of water out of the

Whv Rinu Gears Go

When a driver succeeds in tearing
off a few teeth from the ring gear
in the rear axle housing. 1t is usually
due to harsh action of the clutch.
Cone clutches are especially prone
to cause such trouble, when improp-
erly cared for, and while they are
now found in the specifications of
only one car manufactured in Amer
lea there are still enough cone
clutches in operation to make it
worth while to state the fact that
a loose rear main engine bearing is
often the cause of faulty clutch ac-
ton and strain on the rear end.
With the f1ywheel wabbling just a
little the clutch cannot operate
smoothly no matter how excellent its
facing may be.

Who Would Have Guessed

That electric self-starters for au-
tomobiles would be advertised In the
year 1925 with the aid of a picture Of
a fair damsel riding horseback?
That the man who invested his
money in automobiles for the benefit
of national progress through trans
portation would be our most heavily
taxed citizen?
That motor vehicle departments
which are so strict about having
under.age drivers on their roads
could overlook the danger of allowing
the irresponsible aged to hit 'er up
over the highways?
That the American automobile
interests should have overlooked the
Importance of telling people how to
use their cars to better advantage?
That only three of the eleven
pioneers of the American automobile
have lived to see their names car
ried on the radiators of successful

CLAN the Drive Shaft

Most of the trouble experienced
by car owners as result OF failure
Of the Bendix drive (the starter de-
vice used on most cars) to operate
Is due to rust on the shaft upon
which the small engagement gear
slides in order to mesh with the fly
wheel Cases have been common
where the flywheel has rusted this
shaft by constantly tossing up a
little water that has collected in the
bottom Of the flywheel and clutch
housing. The remedy is to drain off
this housing at intervals, and of
course clean the Bendix drive shaft

Better Let Ii Drain

Just as in the case of the Gluten
that operates in oil. so the dry-plate
clutch has a drain plug at the bottom
of its housing. In the latter case
however, it is best to take the plug
out and allow 1t to drain. A drain
hole is provided in this type of clutch
to provide for washing out the
clutch now and again. The plug is
usually inserted simply to prevent
dripping of oil on the floor of the
garage. Most owners would prefer
to have a little water, oil or kerosene
drip to the garage floor than to have
it confined to the clutch where IT
can cause trouble.

ST. PATRICK'S DAY.

MARCH II, next Tuesday, will be
1'A observed, especially by the
Irish, as st. Patrick's Day.
st. Patrick is the patron saint of
Ireland. He lived about 396-469.
His name is Latin, signifying patri-
clan. According to one tradition,
he was born near the present town
of Dumbarton, Scotland, where his
father was evidently a man of some
standing, a deacon in the Roman
garrison Patrick was captured by
a marauding expedition of Irish
Picts and sold into slavery in Ire
land. Here he led a hard life, but
succeeded after a time in escaping.
e then, according to the popular ac-
count, fitted himself for the priest
hood in France and Rome, where he
obtained permission from Pope Ce-
lestine to return to Ireland to con-
vert the natives to Christianity He
left two pieces of writing; one, a
so-called Confession" is a de-
tense of his work in Ireland and
is in a way photographed. In
reality, beyond the fact that he was
one of the earliest, if not the first
priest to preach Christianity to the
Irish, little is known regarding the
details of his life.
The popular saying that st. Pat
rick drove the snakes out of Ire
land is peculiar, as snakes never
existed in that island. All accounts
seem to imply that st. Patrick was
not an Irishman at all, but a man
of Roman ancestry, born in Scot
land-a Christian missionary to the
Irish.

ONCE UNDER SUSPICION.

GAS was once looked upon with
as much suspicion as would at
tach to the presence of a delega-
ton of bootleggers at Iaw-en-
forcement meeting.
One hundred and eleven years
ago a great crowd gathered on
Westminster Bridge, in London. A
new chapter was about to be writ
ten in the worlds history of inven-
tons. The famous bridge was about
to be lighted by gas.
Suddenly the bridge was flooded
with light. The crowd fell back,
bewildered An engineer stepped
forward and touched the gas pipes.
He invited member of parliament
to do likewise. This gentleman re-
fused until he had borrowed heavy
gloves. He believed the pipes con
tanned fire and would burn him.
When electricity supplanted gas
as an illuminant, people believed
that gas was doomed. But TODAY
it is one of the great heating agents
of the world and is used in 5000
different ways in industry and is
produced in greater quantities than
ever before.

TRADE AT HOME.

MONDAY March Is, will witness
1'A the openig of the fourth annual
"Trade at Home = Use Arizona
Products" Week held in Arizona
the fourth concerted effort on the
part of civic organizations of the
state to keep Arizona money in Ari-
IONA, where it will develop the
states industry and resources and
do it's bit for the prosperity of every
citizen.
Practically every city in the
state will join in the observance of
the week through it's chamber OF
commerce, in every case the cam
paign being BUY in Your Home
Town" with the added use Ari-
iona Products" slogan for the state
as a whole. And as sequel to
the various local movements, pur-
chasing agents, wholesale dealers,
farm organization representatives
and manufacturers will meet in
buyers and sellers conference in
Phoenix March IS to get together
to improve the preparation and dis
tribution and promote the consump-
ton of the states varied products.
Throughout the week it will be
stressed everywhere that trading
at home will result in actual bene-
fit to the individual purchaser; that
it is a matter of individual advan-
tage as much as civic patriotism.
There is real proof for this view,
too.
The sole result of trading at
home is the creation of more bust
ness, and a more permanent pros
perity. But what are the results
of developing the business of your
community?
One result is the growth of pres
ent business and the establishment
of new ones. This means employ
ment of more people, and room for
new residents. 1t also means there
will be more taxable property and
more people to pay for public i'm
provements; schools, roads, parks,
paved streets, etc.
Another result is that increased
volume of business may well mean
lower prices, by reducing the pro-
portionate overhead. Add to that
the more efficient service it will
be possible to give, and the larger
stocks which may be carried.
All these items apply with equal
force to the use of Arizona prod
ucts to build up the business of the
entire state, with resultant addi-
tional employment, greater taxable
