CAR EXAMINATIONS MADE
AT M0BILGAS STATIONS TO
PROMOTE SAFE MOTORING

| Banishing car worries and eras-
ing doubts in the minds of motor
! lists about the condition of their
machines, is declared to be the
purpose of the free automobile in
spection system, announced today
by local Mobilgas station specialists
! under. the name of Winter-proofing
ChecRup time is here, they say, in
/ offering to make examinations of
many vital automobile parts. The
inspections are gratis, except for
needed materials
There is no longer need to tempt
fate" declare L. D. House and M. M.
Dizney, Valley wholesale agents for
General Petroleum Corporation
because the free inspection plan
started by our Mobilgas dealers re-
lieves the motorist from all con-
cerp about the status of tires, wheel
bearings, rear end gears, transmits
sionS, cooling systems, windshield
swipes, crankcase oil, air and oil
filters, and other parts bearing on
safety, performance and comfort
in dSiving.
Engineers Urge Inspection
Critical examination of such
parts, which is now offered by we'll
trained and fully-qualified Mobilu-
brication experts, should be made
at least twice year. This statement
lis made on the authority of highway
officials, safety specialists and auto
NIL rob,
work reveals the necessity for
semi-annual checkup to reveal any
hidden dangers.
Summer Has "Done Things"
Summer has done things to your
car" continued House and Dizney.
"This is a statement we made a
year ago, and it will bear repeating
now. While you've been pounding
your machine over the roads, ap-
preciable quantities of dirt and grit
have been sucked in through the
crankcase breather, oil filter and
air purifier; grease in the gear
boxes has taken severe punishment
and should be replaced; rust and
sediment has accumulated in the
radiator and motor water jacket
tires have picked up bits of glass,
and probably tacks and nails; grease
in the wheel bearings has probably
done it's full duty. and should be in
spected to prevent bearing failure.
The Answer to Worry
Many motorists worry about
theses things, and entertain doubts
as to how long their cars will run
without failure or heavy repair bills.
The only safe and satisfactory an
swer, to relieve the car owners
mind and re-establish confidence in
his machine, is thorough Winter
proof inspection. Specialists in
Imperial Valley press., 1939-11-03
Imps Menace Cars

"a devilish parade of imps con-
stantly menaces every motor on the
highways" is the expressive state
ment of Charles M. Sproule. Mobil-
ubrication expert at Imperial SER
vice station, who explains that
these little devils are minute car
bon particles and fine grains of
sand, plus the road dust made up
of disintegrated rock and cement
drawn into motors with the air. The
destructive imps play havoc with
the finely-fitted expensive parts,
if allowed to travel in oil unhamp-
cred. Fortunately air and oil filters
stop some of them, but these filters
must be flushed regularly to pre-
vent unnecessary wear. This work
should be done during the Winter
proof period"

Standing The Gaff

AS Russell of RoSSer Russell'S Ser
vice sees it, waterproof inspection
answers the question as to whether
car will stand the gaff" during
the tortuous punishment it takes
from now until spring. "It's up to
any motorist to answer this ques-
ton satisfactorily, to have his car
completely inspected as to the con-
dition of the tires, spark plugs,
lights, transmission, differential, ra-
diator. fan belt, battery, windshield,
swipes, oil and air filters, and other
things vital to safety and saving.
That's the reason for the free semi
annual examination we offer now"

tions to End Doubt and Worry About Cars
Don't Gamble!

Gambling with life and limb is
a dangerous practice, as everyone
will agree" asserts Bob Hatton.
But that's just what we are doing
when we fail to have our cars care
fully checked and inner cleaned at
regular intervals. That's why traffic
experts urge such inspections.
That's why Mobilgas station men
offer, semi-annually, to make
checkups free. We believe many will
use this helpful service during
'Winterproofing'."

charge of Mobilgas stations are pre-
pared to do a complete checkup
job, a complete cleaning and re-
vitalizing job, while the car is being
fabricated. Every motorist owes it to
himself, to his car, and to his pas
sengers to take the precautions
which this free semi-annual inspec-
ton plan offers. It's better to be a
week carly than clay late in hav-
ing this checkup made. It ends
doubt and worry, which means a
lot to anyone"

MOTORIST OFTEN FEARS
SOMETHING MAY FAIL

Will the automobile stand up?
Will it strip gear or burn a bear
ing? Will a tire blow out? Will
something fail, and where will I
land?
With the waterproof checkup
system now in operation, there is
no more need for anyone to worry
about the condition of his car.

Selected Poem
THE EXILE
Daniel Whitehead Hicky in the Christian
Science Monitor)

Daniel Whitehead Hicky in the Christian
Science Monitor)
When was young, the beautiful sea wide,
Stretching beyond the farthest dream of space,
And over my body felt the curving tide,
All of its shining magic in my face.
Along the sands gathered patterned shells,
Held them against my and suddenly there
I heard a music like the toss of bells
In ports where moonlight drifted cold and clear.
And turtle eggs found, heron's feather
Still warm with eager flight into the sun,
And sea -anemones when gull-gray weather
Blew shoreward from the winds dark clarion.
And remember stumbling on a light
That was starfsh burning in the night.
All these were mine, all these were mine to keep
Too much Of splendor tor small boys hands,
And so beside me in my bed asleep
They rested: all my treasures from the sands.
o beautiful sea, long alien to my heart,
Wash over the barren shoreline of my daysl
Hear one who loved you wake at night and start,
Who, over the dying embers, speaks your praise.
Sweep inward, sea, your long bright acres breaking!
o once again to hear your music swell,
To find past nightfall peace and quiet walking
Once more within my hands singing shell!
o beautiful sea, sea TOO long withdrawn,
Break over my heart like tides of fire at dawnl
The Waterbury Democrat., 1939-10-19

So far as we can see, though, the great
est single amounts of taxes collected by
the state were those directly affecting
the owners of motor-cars. In this same
year they paid into the state treasury
S9,721, 1913 in gasoline taxes Their regis
tration fees, license money, and other
motor vehicle department fees amounted
to $6,723, 754. All of which proves pretty
conclusively that without motorists the
state would lose a rich source of income.
OF course we admit, too, that if there
weren't automobiles the state wouldn't
have an expensive bodybuilding and re-
pairing program. But the motor car is
heavily taxed in this state and don't let
anyone tell you differently
