Ed. RIPLEY WILL
FIND THE PART
II it's an automobile

II it's an automobile 49, Ed
Ripley has it.
There aren't many places of bust
ness in Maine or anywhere else
where this can be said. But 1t Is
true about the Ripley Co, on How
ard street. Used parts for automo-
biles are a specially at the Ripley
place. The word specially is used
advisedly, too, for that is just the
situation that exists there. Ihere
are plenty of dealers, hardware
stores, garages and others, who car
nv automobile parts, but those who
have the used parts are few and far
between.
AS a matter of fact, dealing in
used parts of automobiles is bust
ness that must be carried on by
itself or 1t can't be carried on at all
It requires care, knowledge of auto
mobiles and knowledge of the
market. Then, too, it requires 1udg-
ment and foresight All these MIR.
Ripley has or else he would not nave
been so successful in his business for
the many years he has been.
AS everyone knows, there is a big
demand for used automobiles. The
demand for used parts may not be
as great, but one thing is certain
when a particular part is wanted. the
man after it wants it and wants 1t
bad. There are automobiles run
ming around the country now that
are of a type no longer being maze,
They are good cars. too, ana 1ol ali
they may not be late models their
owners prefer them because the de-
sired service is being given.
But if something goes wrong with
one of these old-timers, then 1t is a
difficult part to get the desired piece
of machinery that is necessary to
make it run again. 1t is here that
the Ripley place comes in. NO mat
ter how ancient the vintage or no
matter what part of the car may be
needed, the chances are mighty good
that it can be secured from Ed.
Ripley.
Those who have followed the
automobile game can name off hand
score of cars that are no longer
manufactured: the Rambler, Pope
Hartford. Palmer Six, Metz, EMF,
Queen, Royal Tourist-the list is
long one. Yet many of these cars
are still to be found. 1t is also
true that the changes are that Rip
ley has in his big storerooms parts
for these cars as well as parts for
old models of machines that are
still being made. but which are SO
out of date that even the manufact-
urer can not give replacement ser
vice A call at the Ripley plant will
result in the finding of the part
needed and the owner of the old car
will be sent on his way rejoicing.

INDUSTRIAL REVIEW
GOOD WAY TO
PREVENT FIRES

Fire prevention week IS OHlcIaliy
past. but the careful household sees
to it that every week is tire proven
ton week One Of the best ways Oh
reducing the fire hazard Is 70 nave
all rubbish removed from ceiiar anu
attic.
Old newspapers and magazines and
tin cans and other things have
habit of collecting. In few days
comparatively clean cellar Will be
a sight. Then is the time when the
offending rubbish should be remoV-
ed Here is where II. w. Bailey
comes in.
Bailey makes a specially OF remoV-
ing rubbish. He runs trucking
business but there are many angles
, to this business and one OF them as
exempIified by Bailey, is the cartlhS
away of useless things from
house. He has got this down to a
fine art. A telephone call to IL. VIII
bring a truck to the house ana al
most before one has finished giving
the orders for the rubbish removal
all stuff has been carted off and the
cellar is clean.
There are not many who are DONG
this service in Augusta. Certain 1t
is. there is none who does IT any
better than Bailey. Promptness and
thoroughness characterize the work
of his crew of men. On top of this,
the price charged is mighty reason
able. But the fact that the place
/ has been cleaned up, the fire hazard
reduced and everything made spic
and span is worth more than mere
| money.
| And speaking of fire, Bailey has a
supply OF wood that has made big
hit with the people of Augusta this
year. Good dry wood it is, too,
| either in slab, kindling, cord wood or
| chunk form 1t has been wonder
fully mild this fall up to the present
| time. Many have not yet started
| coal fire in their furnaces, but are
burning wood. Some do this all win
| ter The kind of wood that BAILEY
! furnishes is perfect for every use for
: il is well dried. and reasonable IN
/ price. Best of all full measure is
/ given.

HINCKLEY KEEPS
'EM SATISFIED

It's a satisfied customer VINO goes
to Hinckiey's garage on Main
avenue in Gardiner.
/ There are so many garages these
days where only near work IS done
that il is a real satisfaction TO ind
a place where the men are consci-
entious and where, once car has
been fixed, il is sure to be right
This is the desirable condition found
at the Iiinckley place.
Ray Hinckley, the proprietor OF
the garage, has seen TO it that his
crew does good work. He has hired
men who know the game and as
result when a ear or truck is brought
there it is service OF the real kind
that is given.
This is the time when automobiles
need attention. Carburetors need
adjusting, oil may need changing,
lubricating systems need going oven.
There are many things TO be done so
that an automobile viii be thorough
~ ready for tho business of run
ming in cold weather. The Hinckley
garage will prepare a car SO that il
will stand the gaff through which it
must pass during the days when the
weather is cold and the roads rough,
Hinckley's garage specializes in
work on Hudson and Essex cars,
But that doesn't mean that other
makes of autos are not taken there.
On the contrary, there is hardly
make of machine that has not been
given treatment there, if one may
use that phrase.
Situated as it is on Main avenue,
Hinckley's garage Outing the past
summer was called on to service
cars from all parts of the United
States. Ii is a pleasure to record
that these summer visitors found
willing workers. They had their
cars stocked with gas and oil or
given mechanical attention that was
necessary Best of all. these tourists
found the rates reasonable. 1t was
one of the best advertisements Maine
could have had.

10 YEARS SUCCESS
IN AUGUSTA

There are few people in Augusta
who do not know Joseph NJ Kir
schner. There are few people, too,
who do not know his meat market
at 16S Water street.
"Joe" Kirschner has been a resi-
dent of the Capital City since De-
cember. 1916. In that time he has
made hundreds of friends. More
than that, he has proved himself a
mighty successful business man.
The Kirschner market is the only
strictly all-meat market in this sec
ton. Trained thoroughly in the
business, it has been the aim of the
owner and proprietor to furnish only
the very best of products. That
this is true is evidenced by the rush
one witnesses at the market on
week ends
Mr.. Kirschner is SO years old and
a native of Germany. But, unlike
many others, he did not come to
America when a mere lad for he
was % years old when he reached
the shores of the United States.
After a stay in Massachusetts,, he
came to Augusta as above noted and
opened a small shop on Cony hill.
Success greeted his, efforts right

he found he needed larger quarters.
He secured the building at 16S Water
street and there he has been ever
since.
Here is a store that is a model of
neatness. 1t is up to the minute in
equipment for the glass show cases
are fitted with the most modern of
electric refrigeration systems. Every
where one may look will be seen
meat and meat products. Great
legs of beef, rolls of beef. sides OF
beef, lamb and other meats.
But Joe Kirschner, being real
meat man, makes a Whole lot OF
things. His pork sausaSes. frank
forts, ham and beef loaves, liver
wurst, blood sausage and other goods
are noted for their excellence. He
smokes his own shoulders and hams
and bacon and here, too, is found a
recommendation that appeals to
everyone. His hams have flavor.
Those who make a feature of smok-
ed ham at Easter time always try to
have a KirSchner ham on then
tables. Sometimes they are not sue
cessful. but it is only because the
supply is not big enough to meet the
demand. Untailing. courtesy is a
characteristic of the Kirschner mar
ket and this. coupled with the excel
lence of the goods sold, makes i a
popular place.

MORE POWER
FOR THE MOTOR

With cold weather right al hand,
motorists want to get the most pos
sible power out of their engines.
They will get it by using the Split
dorf half dollar spark plug sold by
the Harvey Distributing Co, Of l66
Water street. Gardiner
The Splitdorf spark plug is a new
development-a dependable high
grade porcelain manufactured and
guaranteed by Americas Oldest
manufacturers of ignition apparatus.
1t represents an important step in
the direction of economy for the
motorist.
The Splitdorf half dollar spark
plug is so constructed that cleaning
and adjusting are an extremely
simple matter. As to its break
proof and leakproof qualities. one
has but to examine the sectional
view shown on the cards and note
the details of construction. This
porcelain and bushin% are assembled
as a unit with a compressed winding
OF asbestos yarn which offsets vibra-
ton and prevents breakage. A spec
jal copper asbestos gasket upon which
the porcelain is seated overcomes
leaks of compression and gasses.
"775" porcelain insulator is. used
the finest quality porcelain obtain
able, and each one is tested for me-
chanical and electrical strength. 1t is
of the new semi petticoat design and
withstands high compression engines
as well as engines throwing oil.
The successful operation of an en-
CINE depends TO a great extent upon
the correct fitting OF a spaI-'- plug.
Overheating and the familiar
knock" in the motor are the re-
suits Of using plug that is too
long-snap and power are lost and
rapid carbonization results from a
plug that is too short. There is
type of Splitdorf spark plug for
every engine and the Harvey COM
pany Will be only too glad to explain
the needs Of each particular kind of
motor.
