FAME OF NOGALEs SPREADING

The fame of Nogaes as the border city has
spread the entire southwest but the fame of No
gales the city of homes and good people seems
sadly neglected. To learn the true status of COM
munity must go to the new arrival and seek his
impressions. His the true criterion.
Not unlike other border cities Nogales has based
its drawing powers for many on the oasis just
the International boundary line. This publicity
following the march of progress, has tended to Gre
ate more notorety than publicity.
In fact it is the impression of many normally in
teligent residents of Arizona that Nogales place
to have good time. The American side of the city
is believed to be devoid of churches, schools and
movements designed to elevate the standards of v-
ing as are practiced in every community which has
passed the lethargic stage of existence.
On the contrary even the casual observer resid-
ing out of this section of the state has only to watch
the newspapers and lend an ear to the traveller
who includes the border city in his itinerary to learn
that Nogales Arizona is growing on it's own laurels
few days ago young gentleman arrived in the
city to make his future home. He declared after only
brief survey that he struck by the progressive
civic movements involving the paving of Streets the
erection of new church and the unprecedented
building program which Nogaes is plunged into.
Synonymous with western folk Nogales residents
welcome the stranger because they know that there
in lies the key to greatness They also appreciate the
fact that his impressions bear weight with prospec
tive home seekers. ~
Nogales has nothing to be ashamed of. Blessed
with saubrious climate, good business conditions
through it's important relation to the west coast of
Mexico, and populace dedicated to the Ypbuildng
of the city, it is destined to bound forward to new
heights.

LATEST EQUIPMENT
IN MOTOR STRESSED
Auto Trade Director Urges Car
Owners to Avail Themselves of
Modern Improvements.

Motorists today are the recipients Of
scores of amazing refinements which
are the result of constant research in
the laboratories of the automotive in
dustry, and as such it behooves car
owners to take full advantage of the
benefits available from efficient use of
the devices now an integral part of
engines, chassis and bodies.
Emphasis is given to this point by
Oscar Coolican, local automotive trade
director, who points out that unless
the motoring public is fully cognizant
Of the improvements now built into
automobiles, those improvements cannot
operate to their fullest capacity.
First Of ALL" Mr.. Coolican says.
"the purchaser of new car should
determine wherein his latest acquisition
differs from the one he has been driv-
ing, how it has been improved and the
units making for that Improvement.
Then he should discuss with the SER
vice station the manner in which the
new devices or refinementS alter oper-
ating conditions. Also of course, he
should understand any changes IN SER
vicing methods neceSsitated by the new
ly installed betterments"
Mr. Coolican Is of the opinion that
such procedure would result in more
satisfaction on the part of motorists
who, under such a well-ordered plan,
would have such vital information at
their finger tips.

With the approach of freezing weather
the average inotoriSt is reminded alb
ruptly of the pressing need for doing
now what he should have done some
time ago. Like most humans, he has
neglected doing the essential until the
hour of absolute necessity is about to
dawn, full-fledged, with its promise of
punishment for things left undone.
In other words. he has put of clean
ing thoroughly, and properly, the COOL
ing system of his car. And now. with
zero nights ahead and the need impera-
tive for filling his radiator with an ade-
quate anti-freeze solution. every hour Of
procraStination on the matter is making
it possible that he may have to pour his
anti-freeZe on few minutes notice into
a cooling system which is no more pre-
pared to receive it than a seive is to re-
ceive ordinary water.
Few motorists, even in this enlight-
ened day, realize the desirability for
taking correct care of their cars cooling
systems. Men who pay regularly to
have their homes painted to keep down
deterioration, and who guard against
rusty, leaking pipes by specifying b~P SIS
pipe to the plumber, car owners who
have their oil changed every $50 m..eS
and religiously ask their garage men to
see that their balloon tires are at eX-
actly 80 or 35 pounds pressure, seem
prone to overlook this point. Yet upon
the proper care of the automobile cool
ing system is almost wholly dependent
the degree of successful results one may
expect from an anti-freeze solution.
Rust a Menace.
Rust, scale and leaks are the triple
threat of the uncared-for cooling svs-
tenn. Individually or collectively they
are menace to the peace of mind and
the pocketbook of the motorist in freez-
ing climates. Their presence often pre-
cludes the possibility of successful use
of an anti-freeze. Yet without an anti
freeze costly damage may result to ones
car. The sole way out of the dilemma
technical experts advise, is to extend to
the cooling system an amount of care
and protection equal to that one accords
to other sections of the car.
Before using any anti-freeze prepara-
lions in the radiator 1t is necessary to
take certain definite precautions. Fail
ure to observe what should be COM

unsatisfactory conditions or loss of the
anti-freezs compound. A grain Of such
precaution will work wonders in guard
ing against such contingencies.
The following directions are given by
one authority:
Unless you are sure that the entire
cooling system Of your car Is free from
rust, scale and leaks, the following
should be observed:
Remove rust and scale from radiator
and entire cooling system. A washing
soda solution is more effective than
plain water for this purpose. In either
minutes, after which the entire system
should be thoroughly flushed out with
clear water. Removal Of hose connec-
tons while flushing will facilitate
draining of the rust and scale.
Tighten all parts of the cooling syS-
tenn, including hose and pump connecs
tons, gasketS, expansion plates, drain
cocks, pump glands and grease cups on
water pump. Examine cooling system
periodically to make sure there are no
leaks"
Flushing System.
All authorities agree that before ads
ding an anti-freeZe the cooling system
should be examined for leaks and that
the hose. pump and all connections
should be frightened and the cooling
system flushed with water to remove
possible rust and scale accumulations.
1t is also urged that the radiator should
be only filled to a point three and q
half inches from the top Of the overflow
pipe, as this minimizes loss of the COOL
ing liquid through splashing out or from
| the expansion which takes place as the
| solution warns up.
The radiator and water jacket Of an
automobile which has been in service
for any length Of time usually contain
deposit of rust and scale. Anti-freeze
solutions when added to the water in
the radiator often loosen up the rust
and scale, hence the necessity for re-
moving them before they can operate
| injuriously to the cars "innards." The
surest sign that all rust and scale have
been elected is when the water which
you are flushing through the system
and draining of shows perfectly clear,
without any sign of rust.

The possibility of making sharp re-
auctions In the cost of concrete paw
ing is indicated in report by j. l..
Harrison, highway engineer OF the di-
vision of management Of the Bureau
Of Public Roads, recently published by
the bureau.
His report is based on series of
tests with about 1900 concrete cylin-
derS. beams and cores, collected with
the cooperation of State highway de-
partments in road building projects in
Michigan. Missouri, Kansas, Tennessee,
Texas, South Carolina and Oklahoma.
The study is the first step in an in

will establish definitely the practicable
ity of making construction savings In

After analysing the work done on
time of mixing concrete, and its effect
on quality, the first phase OF the In

The required mixing period estab-

crete which can be placed during any

figures based on comparison showing
that, with a one-and-a-half-m minute
mixing period, about 910 lineal feet Of

day when Six-bag patches are used,

 Many other passengers had mi raculous escapes as two cars of the four-Car train overturned and crumpled into a maze of wreckage about 40 feet above the intersection Of Harrison avenue and Beach street, in Boston's Chinatown.
 One car plunged over the elevated trestle but was prevented from crashing into the street when it struck the roof of a one story brick building and rested there. Its rear truck, weighing three tons, was wrenched off and hung suspended six feet over the sidewalk.
 The train, which would have been crowded with beach-goers but for the fact that it was rainy night. had only about 70 passengers aboard. It was rounding a sharp curve at fair speed between the Ley street station and South station when the accident occurred.
