1881 HELD BUYERS
YEAR IN INDUSTRY
Auburn Manufacturer Be-
Iieves Products Will Be
Sold on Value.

More than in any previous year the
public In 1881 is going to buy value
This statement is made by E. L. Cord,
president Of the Auburn Automobile Co.,
who continues:
Business conditions have changed.
We are in a new cycle. The dollar size
has become more important, and those
companies which offer the greatest val
Tie will profit most by the publics
patronage.
while 1881 may be better year for
the entire industry, over the previous
one, both in profits and in the number
Of units sold, more intensive marketing
of products will be necessary.
New Standards.
"The period through which we are
passing has brought with it new stand
ards. There is a new conception of the
dollar and how much It should buy.
Where in 1929. and the years just pre-
vious, the public would buy almost any,
thing and pay almost any price for 1t, in
1891 there will be a weighing and bal
ancing and elaboration in judgment.
Briefly, the public is now in frame OF
mind whereby it will have to be sold.
I'VE believe that this is healthy
condition, both for the public and for
the manufacturer 1t puts an added re-
quirement on each.
I'm those periods where the demand
is parallel with the supply there is al
ways laxity and a tendency for manu-
facturers to rest on their oars. Since
products can be sold with little effort,
values remain stationary.
1.-THE foreign situation is such that
unquestionably automobile exports will
be reduced even more than in 1880. Our
present tariff laws have not only closed
markets to us, but have raised up re-
sentiment in many sections. There Will
be retaliation in the form Of hSreler in1-
port duties and competition will be made
more difficult.
Hence any advances that are to be
made in 1881 will have to be in the
domestic market Here the buyer has
become abnormally critical For each
dollar he spends he wants a full dol
lars worth of value in return.
Better Values Given.
ITO meet this requirement the auto
mobile manufacturer must give better
engineering, better built cars, improved
materials.
THE pioneer, now more than ever.
will be the recipient of the public's
favor. If he offers the new, the ad-
vanced, the exclusive, he will profit
most.
Therein, we believe the smaller pro-
gressive automobile companies are in a
better position to serve the public and
to meet this requirement Their pro-
duction Is much more flexible, they are
not weighed down with heavy commit
n1entS and their MANAGEMENT is usually
much mere centralized and untram-
meled
''It is our belief that 1881 will be a
strenuous year. The industry will see
more developments than have been pro-
jected in the last decade. Manufacturers
will face the acid test and their policies
and methods sifted in the crucible as
never before.
Yet cut of it all, we believe, will
come developments which will place the
automobile industry years ahead"

Adjusting Timing Chain

Some trouble is encountered by
motorists in adjusting timing chains by
following rules which apply to scme
other make of car. The proper amount
of DETECTION in chain, or slack, varies
with different designs.
Where a car is equipped with an
inspection hole 1t is an easy matter
10 check this DETECTION, and measure
1t. by inserting a pencil and noting
the amount Of inward and outward
movement. This generally should not
exceed one-quarter inch.
II the DETECTION reaches a half inch
or so the chain should be frightened or
It will run noisy and may jump or

complished by loosening the generator

was to be avoided. A still heavier oil Is
not necessary under normal driving
conditions nowadays, until the car has

Fitting Piston Pins

While 1t is possible 10 replace piston
pins in some engines without actually
removing the pistons from the crank
case. the most satisfactory work is &C
complished only through complete re-
moval and the servicing Of these parts
at an ideal temperature. Motorcon is
just learning the Importance of tenn
perature in its relation to repair work.
For instance. a piston should be giveT
minutes immersion in boiling waite
before its pin is removed or installed
This expands the bosses of the piston
enough to make 1t easy to push the pin
in or out This automatically avoids
any possibility Of damaging the piston.
So important is the matter Of piston

An automobile engine that is al
lowed to operate at too low a t2mpera-
ture is the one that suffers greatest in
cold weather. The way to prevent it
is a cover for the radiator, whether it
be a metal shutter automatically or
hand operated of a felt-lined hood of
some kind. Even an ungraceful bit of
cardboard or newspaper is better than
nothing to prevent icy blasts passing
through the radiator.

EDITORS NOTE: This is the third of six stories on the amazing events i'm the love story of Aimee Semple McPherson Hutton, the Los Angeles evangelist, who recently embarked on her third honeymoon. By LAURA LOU BROOKMAN
 NEA Service Writer Copyright 1881 NEA Service, Inc)
 When love came to Aimee Mo- Pherson for the second time no one had yet heard of ''companionate marriage"
 There is reason, however, to regard Aimee's marriage to Har- old McPherson as one of the first companionate marriages. It fol- lowed the principles of trial union to be terminated by mutual agreement should it prove unsat- isfactory.
 Harold was a grocery clerk in Providence, R. I. He attended a tent revival in East Providence one night, was attracted by the flaming haired young woman who so fervently urged sinners to re- pent, remained after the meeting to talk with her, and subsequently, made date"
 few weeks later he asked Aimee to be his wife.
 Before she said "Yes," it was understood between the two that should the evangelist receive the call to missionary service she would heed it if 1t took her to the ends of the earth.
 And so they were married.

 There is no doubt that true love for time graced this marriage, uncongenial.

 Harold McPherson divorced me IT years ago. He had been married once prior to the time he married me. The Bible-Matthew 19:9-states plainly the rule of the Lord in such a case. The words except it be- clear me in the eyes of God and in my con science.
 "I don't believe in divorce on a slight pretext. The color of mans necktie or the way he talks are not excuses for severing the iloly bonds of wedlock."
 
 Her new husband had little money. Three different times he established homes for his preach er-wife, but they were not very comfortable. McPherson was easy going. He preferred the quiet, or derly routine of filling grocery or ders to soul-saving and hand-to- hand pulpit encounters with LucI- fer.
 The couple went to live with the husbands mother, Mrs Annie McPherson. at her boarding house soon after their son, Rolf. was born.
 Together Aimee and Harold edited religious publication known as "The Bridal Call.'
 Gradually the rift between the ,wo widened. The young wife became seriously ill and, when ae believed herself at deaths cor, received what seemed a di- ne message, instructing her to .evote herself to religious work.
