Say said Smith. taking me sud
denly into his confidekce, where have
you been buying your engine oil?"
AT the garage" | replied Why"
Il thought SO lie said, nodding his
head Significantly. Take a tip from
me and buy your, oil elsewhere.
They've been selling US kerosene, not
oil. Our friend jones discovered at
the service station that the oil which
was put in at the garage not quite a
month ago was as thin as water In
my case, the thinning of the oil
could be accounted for: but YOU
know that Jones doesn't drive over 300
miles month at the most. II the
oil they are selling US goes to pieces
in his engine, what must II Go In
ours?"
You're doing a lot of guessing and
so was the mechanic who told Jones
he had bought poor OIL" ! retorted.
Lets get down to facts. Jones had
his car in dead storage all Winter
When he phoned over to have them
get 1T out and drain the oil the garage
hand found there was no battery in
the car and so changed the oil with
out first running the engine. Later
battery was brought to the garage
and installed in the car. Still later
in the day Jones himself came around

here's what happened:
GAS Had Lost "Pep.'
His gasoline had lost so much pep
through evapOrat tion that he spent 10
minutes crankinS with the starter
before some one suggested that he
pour little fresh gasoline into the
vacuum tank and try cranking again.
All the while this was going on the
choker was pulled out and the on
Gine was being flooded with gasoline
which worked down past the piston
rings and into the crankcase Is ii
any wonder that the oil was in bad
shape when they drained il out at
the service statiop"
And while we're on this subject,
let me caution YOU about this bust
ness Of choking the motor Here is
a small thing which is absolutely es-
sential to startinG-at least with our
modern carburetors-but ii is at the
same time an ever present danger to
the engine. II is necessary TO choke
off the air and allow raw gasoline TO
spray up into the cylinders when the
engine is cold, butsunleSs this process
is followed as sparingly as possible

this sort the \. A. A. also aims to i'm
press upon localities where such in
tcrruption in motor travel is tolerated
that serious loss of business and civic
reputation is the inevitable result.
THE New Jersey motorist mentioned
above, for instance. is now one of
many hundreds of southland tourists
who will hencefomh avoid the route
that takes them through Danville, Va.
Thus. it becomes "A civic problem for

Our investigation of this and SINH

the raw gas6tane inficts more dam
age by dilutng the engine oil in the
crankcase, for il has no other place
to go In both types of engines, of
course, excessive choking produces an
excess of carbon. That's why il is
good policy for you or me or any
othea motorist to spare the choke"
But what is a driver to do when
he starts off with a cold motor?"
Smith asked. "He has to choke it
for about a mile in order to keep it
from stalling."

SIGN BEST AT CENTER.
Makes Motorists Slow Down at
Crossings for Safety.

After placing direction signs in
every conceivable place it has at last
been discovered that the logical place
to direct motorists at crossings is on
the Keep to the Right" sign. in the
center.
Illuminated at night these sign
posts not only serve to tell the driver
which way" but plainly mark the
danger points. Every one has to slow
down in order to read signs, which
means both safer driving and surer
travelling.

to whether these low-pressure cords
should have Six-ply walls or four.
Many warm arguments ensued dur
ing the trade days as to the relative
merits of the two types, but the public
tonight seemed to be entirely salts
fed to rely upon the judgment of the
manufacturer whose cars they were
considering. They take the attitude
that one type OF tire will not do for
every kind of car, and seem to be con-
tent to know that at any rate they
are to ride on lower air pressure and
enjoy their motoring more.
Four wheel brakes appeared on
some cars quite Unexpectedly, while
makes that were sure to adopt them
didn't. But the majority of the mod
els displayed had four wheel brakes
