gest previous October in the Com
pany's history. For the 10 months
of this year Nash has already
marketed 125,441 cars as compared
to a total Of 84,708 cars for the
same 10 months period of 1925
which was the biggest previous
year since the founding of the
Company This makes a business
increase so far this year of $3.50.
October became the 26th consecu-
tive month-with three exceptions
that Nash sales and production have
overtopped the mark registered by
the corresponding month Of the year
previous. The three exceptions were
months when production was held
down purposely to make 1t possible
to introduce new models into manu-
featuring. This is an unprecedented
record for continuous monthly
growth and reflects the great de-
mand from all. sections of the coun-
try for the Nash product.
"U que on bly, the Nash
achievement in introducing the z
bearing crankshaft motor in all
models in all three series Is having
a widespread influence on sales.
Already this year, in 10 months,
total sales have risen to figure
eclipsing by 1890 cars the grand
total achieved by the entire banner
year of 1925. In other words, sales
and production for the 10 months
this year are 5000 ahead Of total
sales ard production for the full IL
months last year, and November and
December sales are yet to be added
to this surplus"

Scattering The Traffic

Many traffic experts do not share
the popular belief that if car regis
trations continue to increase at the
present rate there will be no road or
street on which to drive in comfort.
They point to a number of significant
trends which they declare are serv-
Ing to lessen congestion by distrib-
uting the traffic.
To illustrate this point they cite
q typical case where motorist,
formerly accustomed to taking two
days to make a trip between large
cities via the main highway which
took him through two of the largest
cities in the country, recently made
the trip between nine and six, via
the back way. This mans car was
on the highway one day as against
two as on former trips. This meant
one less car on the more heavily
travelled highway,

Highways has undertaken to sell

Having addressed the motorist on

highway official calls upon the car
owner to cooperate with the officers.
On this point, the ad reads:

Here is a true automotive story
with a vital significance:
A motorist, desiring to take his car
to the paint shop, left his garage at
500 and arrived at his destination
at sos. A few minutes were spent
In giving orders to the painters. and
then the motorist set out for his
home using the transportation OF the
man without a car.
After waiting at one corner for
some time, he decided that the bus
service had been curtailed and fig
ured that by walking down the road
a short distance he could catch a
street car at the end of it's route. The
road, however, happened to be a little
longer when walking than when driv-
ing. Soon he was looking for a kind
motorist with an empty seat.
Through good fortune, his unvoiced
prayer was answered and he was
given a lift to the end of the street
car line. Here. the waiting process
| was resumed.
Presently a trolley appeared. After
| hating five minutes, it started, ram
bling along on one way track, stop
ping twice at switches for cars going
| in the opposite direction. The motor
list bought a transfer, got out at
| prominent intersection and was just
| in time to miss the car he needed to
take. This meant another wait. He
| reached home at exactly 9.05 A. NJ

Momentous Change Seen
In Motor Car Buying

Detroit, Nov. 12-Tremendous in
roads into the entire motor car mar
ket above $500, by eight cylinder
cars within IS months, with the like
lihood of their complete dominance OF
that market shortly thereafter, Is de-
clared by Dubois Young, president Of
the Hupp Motor Car corporation, to
be the next far-reaching factor in
motor car buying.
In an interview with the Wall
Street Journal, Mr.. Young pointed out
that he spoke from an experience OF
more than a dozen years with eight
cylinder cars. four years Of that time
in the actual designing, testing, pro-
ducing and marketing of the car
which has been the largest selling car
of the straight eight type ever since
it was first produced.
There is a market of at least 100,-
900 ready to adopt the straight eight
as its car justs as quickly as those
persons realize the facts" he said.
THAT is why am willing to go on
record in this frank manner as pre-
dieting what is already the inception
of an immediate and revolutionary

trouble.
A number of drivers use their
clutches as brakes when they are
parkin' on a hill. They keep the
gears in either low or reverse, de-
pendin' upon which way the hill
slopes. On hills they let the car
coast with the clutch disengaged. In
stead OF usin' their brakes, when
they want to stop coastin' they just
let in the clutch. What this sort of
thing does to a good clutch, however,
is story in itself.
Some drivers save their brakes by
scrapin' the tires along the curb and
any number of 'em let the treads do
the slowin' down when the car
swings around corner.
It's all right to use a lower gear
and the engine to hold back the car
ON a steep downgrade, but why start
the descent at thirty miles an hour
when it is just as easy to go over the
top at twenty? The speed at when
some persons go downhill in second
is such that it would be better in
many cases if they burnt out the
brakes. 1t would be cheaper, any
way.

ZEN minutes longer than the time re-
uuired to walk it.
The Old Mechanic Says:

Carryin' ideas beyond their point
of usefulness seems to be a popular
American mistake, judgin' from the
way drivers round here try to save
their brakes. There's been a lot of
advice handed out on this business
of lettin' other parts of the car I'M
derstudy for the brakes and most of
it's good. But now the average
motorist is injurin' these other parts
in tryin' too hard to save the brakes
a little.
Every good driver knows that
when slowin' down or even when
stoppin' quickly it pays to leave the
clutch engaged until the car is down
to a speed of about ten miles an
hour. This is because the very act
of closin' the throttle let's the engine
do some of the brakin'. The idea is
all right If it isn't carried too far, but
as soon as the driver starts to leave
the clutch engaged until the engine

Matching Color A Feat

Matching colors always is prob
lem for the modern paint shop but
now and then a solution to a particu-
larly knotty problem stands out as
worthy of special attention. This
was clearly illustrated recently in the
case of an owner who ordered a re-
painting job to match the color orig
inally on the car. The paint, how
ever, had faded and weathered to
such a point that it was difficult to
tell just what the car really looked
like when new.
But the owner wanted a color to
match the original and the paint
shop did not dodge the problem. The
foreman was ingenious enough to re-
move one of the hood clamps, re-
vealing a section of the original
paint about the size of dime. From
this a perfect match was made, and
the owner Of the car was delighted.

A Test That Tells

When there Is question as to
whether a new brand of paint, var
nish or lacquer, will withstand the
heat 1T would be subjected to on "a
hood or radiator shell, here is a
simple test that will settle the point.
Try little of the paint on the ex-
haust pipe and note whether it stands
up. One motorist who tried this.
found that a certain lacquer made a
hard. durable coat that easily with
stood the excessive heat to which the
piping was subjected. while another
variety of finish virtually melted off.
A third cracked under the strain of
the heat.

This business of soldering radio sets

still more child's play. And don't use
anything but rosin core solder. You
don't have to bother about applying

ready in it. Just see that the two
things to be soldered are clean, then
get your iron hot and touch it to the
metal for few seconds to get it hot.
Now touch your iron to the solder, re-
tanning some of it,at the tip of the
iron, touch the tip of the iron to the
place to be soldered and the solder
will run off the iron, making the joint
and it's all over.

the lemniscate curve reduces the re-
sistance otherwise encountered in
small diameter coils.
The wire used is No. &c enameled,
high turn-to-turn capacity being
avoided by a system of spaced wind
ing. Over all, a coil is just three
inches long and two and three
quarters across the loops; the small
diameter of the latter is one inch.
An ingenious experimenter can
readily rig up a winding Jig made of
two short curtain pole sections nailed
on end of a board and produce de-
sirable coils.
The directions which the magnetic
ffux of each section of these coils as
sumo by virtue of the peculiar wind
ing scheme are such that the coils as
units have completely confined mag
netic fields. This property precludes
the necessity of mounting the coils at
particular angles in a receiver in
order to prevent interstage coupling.
The absence of interaction also gives
each coil a fixed and definite Undue
lance value.
The last mentioned fact is RESPONSE
BILE for a very desirable effect, name
ly, the almost exact coordination of
the three variable condenser read
