Open Car Features Used.

Since the closed car now is the popu-
lar type, it would not be surprising to
see it appropriating some of the ideas
found today in the better grade of
open cars. Divided rear seats with
arm rests is one of the possibilities.
Windshield wings on closed cars, both
for front windows and rear, already
have made their appearance. 1t is
recognized that the owner of the
closed car does not have enough air
and that he would keep the windows
wide open if there were something to
break the wind.
1t is a peculiar fact about closed
car design that the top should not
overhang the sides of the car, as is
the case in open.car design. Quite
often it is possible to drive through
a. light rain without putting up the
curtains in an open car, if the wind
is not blowing. Because there is no
overhang of the top in the closed car,
however, the passengers find 1t reces-
sary to close the windows in almost
any kind of rain.
Window caves are designed to OBJ
viate much of this nuisance and to
provide air without draft. But the

the time-payment plan of purchasing

financially dependable.
THE radio industry is following very
closely in the footsteps of the automo-
tive industry with respect to time pay

Is growing each year. until it now is
at point that was undreamed of by
the pioneers who built the first auto
mobile some 25-odd years ago.
From d production by all makers
of about 1900 cars at the end of 1900,
we have reached our present magnifi-
cent total of more than 10000 900 cars
in use at the end of 1925. The future
growth of this country, and of every
other country for that matter, rests
entirely on what the people want. If

Lowering the 1927 car and its body
to provide for greater safety at higher
speeds may effect another change.
For one thing it will eliminate the
compartments under the seat cushions
and this will force the car designers
to provide more convenient places for
batteries, tire changing tools and car
care equipment. For years the man
ufacturers have been making a half
hearted attempt 10 get away from
the tear up the seat cushion" idea.
When the 1927 cars come on the mar
ket some welcome convenienCeS will
be noted in this respect.
One of the most significant changes
will be the swing back TO the luggage
compartment on the rear. This is
something that never should have
been abandoned. There is only one
place to carry luggage in an automo-
bile and that is on the back of the
car. The custom of carrying hand
bags on the lap and legs is q hazard
that no sensible motorist ought to
take. He should be free to act in
case of an emergency.
Because competition was % keen
and expenses so high, manufacturers
tried to give buyers trunks as we'll
as luggage compartments. but they
fell down in the attempt. Trunks
were inadequate. The public went
back to the old way. Only a few
motorists with better cars enjoyed
the great advantage of real comfort
in touring. Now the manufacturers
will compromise by supplying the
good looking. adequate sized trunk or
luggage rack, the car buyer supplying
the touring bags or trunk to suit
himself.
More extensive touring this year
will pave the way for a welcome to
the 1927 car with it's newer body
styles and innovations.

ALL ENGINES VIBRATE,
EVEN SIX-CYLINDER TYPE
Longer Crankshafts and Faster
Speeds Mean More Lost Mo-
tion and Noise.

Skies are the preferred type of en-
gine SO far as vibration goes, but any
engine is subject to crankshaft vibra-
tions, and the six is no exception. If
the shaft of any engine is struck a
blow it will vibrate. In general. the
longer it is the more it vibrates.
When it's vibrations, caused by the
downward blows of the connecting
rods, start to match the explosion rate
of the engine itself, the two forces
combine and make the engine run
roughly.
That is why IL is important to find
the speed at which an engine settles
down and avoid that at which 1t runs
in such a way as to cause itself dam

However, the new styles in bodies
may be entirely different from any
thing heretofore seen. The field is
wide open to the manufacturer with a
little originality. The struggle is to
create a body model that will make
people feel chummy without making
them feel crowded. Full sedans get

Seating arrangements cannot always

is thinking OF body strength. Doors
and windows have to be planned to
save the body posts undue strain. With
steel bodies, on the contrary, greater
freedom of design is possible. Out of
the freak ideas which 1t permits there
may be evolved something quite serv.
iceable in the way Of a new body type.
Because upholstery is removable in
steel bodies, it will be possible in the
near future to have two sets of up

which are now available.
Automatic Oiler Next.
A motorist who does considerable
touring and who loses much time
stopping to see whether there is
enough oil in the engine, or searching
for a suitable place TO buy reliable oil
says that the time is not far distant
when there will be self oilers for en-
