High Quality Products
Being Manufactured By
Wilmington Paint Firm

With over 80 years of successful
operation to their credit; 80 years
in which the service and products
have constantly been improved, the
Atlantic Paint and Varnish Works
today operates a modern paint
manufacturing factory. Its skilled
labor, up-to-date machinery and
quality ingredients are combined
to give the public the finest paints,
enamels, oils and varnishes manu-
featured in this part Of the state,
and at most reasonable prices.
In the plant, located at Alt Mar
tin street, are such equipment as
a three-roller grinding mill, one
36-inch stone mill, two 50-gallon
pebble mills, one 110-gallon liquid
mixer and several grinding mills
for making colors in oils. The ca
pacity of this plant ranges up to
500 gallons of paint per day.
The Atlantic Paint and Varnish
Works manufactures a complete
line of outside paints, single stain,
varnish stains, d.. * enamels and

Mcconnell And Causey
Recommend Motor Tune
Up Service For Winter

With winter w e a t h e r causing
more than a few motorists to dis
pair of getting their cars started
these cold mornings, this note OF
encouragement should bring hope.
Mcconnell and Causey, 18th and
Market streets, can remedy your
troubles in a minimum of time
and at a negligible expense. All
the car needs is a real tune = ur
service job to put it in condition
for a winter Of t~rouble-free service.
Most of us don't understand that
an automobile motor is as SEN
sitive to weather as we humans.
1t needs readjusting and changes
too, to obtain best performance at
all times. Every a should be
tuned-up at each change of seasons
for most economical operation.
Mere changing Of oil or other i'm
portant though small items is not
complete enough.
Due to the fact that motor tune
up service is complicated, many
automobile owners know very little
about it. A real tune-up job consists
of checking the entire fuel and
electrical system of a car. This
means checking and inspecting the
gas lines, the fuel pump, carbu-
rotor, distributor, ignition points,
spark plugs, spark plug wires, head
lights, all wiring, instruments such
as speedometer, armatures, horns,
stop lights and starter. The fan
belt, battery and battery cables
are also checked and inspected.
Experience in this work shows
that seventy-five per cent of all
hard starting and poor perform
ance of motors is caused by some
defective part that could be dis
covered in the motor tune-up SER
vice. Mcconnell and Causey have
many customers who periodically
use this service and find their
mileage and operating costs under
the average. Loss of pep and snap
very often is found to be due to
some small defective p that
could be replaced most econom-
ically.
Take advantage of the late be-
ginning of really cold winter wealth
err to have your automobile con-
ditioned for a winter Of carefree
operation by stopping in at the
Mcconnell and Causey station and
have them give your car a thor
ough tune-up this week, you'll be
more than pleased with the better
performance and completely salts
