a slight roll to the ship as she ploWed

its screeching sirens, and Fort Jay, with
its salute Of 10 guns. Col. Stimson and
Secretary of the Navy Adams stood on
the bridge deck during the Fort Jay

Actual Service Facts
 By A. C.. Hawker

The modern motor car owner may have an idea that his hand some, 1880 model requires less maintenance attention than did the "one hunger" Of two decades ago, but he is entirely mistaken in the actual service facts. according 10 A c Hawker president of the A. G. HaWkCr, Inc.
 Over the period of a years run ming time, the modern greyhound Of the road is entitled to and usu- ally gets exactly as much attention to keep it operating at its best as the family pet did in the days when CTS did not designate taxi drivers. he said today in outlining the vast extent of modorn motor car scr vice.
 This maintenance equality be- tween tho old and modern cars Is purely q matter Of mathematics, he declared Service on the one hunger coverel 500 10 5000 miles a year and l5 to 9 miles an hour. On today's car 1t cares for an average of ten, twenty and even fifty thousand miles yearly and 50 to so miles an hour. Thus the actual care which should be given the Nodern car by its owner and by it's author ized maintenance station and main- tenance system averages up about equally and the annual service cost varies but little. Of course, the big and important difference in the ad- vanced mechanical marvels which are today's Nash '400's' and the old tuners of the gay ninetes is the fact that service now is maintenance in stead of repairs, and trouble pre- vention instead of car rebuilding.
