Miss Pauline E. Wierick, 46, of
148 Prospect-st, Oak Harbor, died

an extended illness. Funeral SER
vices we're held Wednesday at 2

"pound of cure" later.
Prepare your car for winter
driving by having your serviceman
check oil, tires, brakes, radiator,
battery and windshield wipers.
Start the season off right with
good fabrication job. the proper
winter grade oil and cold-tested
lubricants. Since brakes take
beating in the wintertime, periodic
checks are doubly important.
Avoid the expense and bother of
a frozen radiator by having your
service station dealer "fll her up"
with antifreeze. Insure yourself
against frozen battery by MAX
ing sure it's fully charged at all
times. Badly worn tires are doubly
dangerous in ice and snow, so re-
place them.
Since some cold weather car
ailments cannot be anticipated,
knowledge of a few cures will
help. For instance, if your door
locks should freeze up, it's easy
to thaw them out. Just heat your
key with a match and insert the
hot key into the lock. If your
windshield suffers from a chronic
case of steaming-up, wipe it off
with an old windshield-wiper
blade.
Remember, your car reacts to
cold much as you do, so it needs
special protection and even a
change of diet.
