\y SATURDAY, SEPT. AND CARE OF PARTS, & Give your motor truck a chance to! they live thru a long life. Don’t drive it to destruction and the scrap heap. Inspect it occasionally, keep it well eiled and up loose joints. ir @ is offered by the B. F. Géocrich Rubber company, who have institated a national educational campaign on motor truck operation Getting the maximum value from a truck is largely a matter of main- tainance versu, depreciation The life- of a motor truck may be pro longed surprisingly with proper care Obviously, the quality of the truck must be considered—its construction -—also the character of the work it is called on to perform and the man- ner jn which it is handled. The motor truck must encounter ridges and depressions of road sur- face, edges of bricks, car tracks and scores of other obstruction verts these shocks, together with the throbbing of its engine, into « less vibration which shakes ev of its mechanism from the iator to the tail light. The different units of the truck with their various pipes, rods, gears, wires, valves and pumps must be attached by bolts, bands, screws, stays and supports, all of which must be kept tight and in per. fect alignment at all times. The operator must catch a squeak while it is a squeak. He must re- move the cause of trouble before it has developed into a serious ailment. Inspection is the basis of truck main- tainance. In the big majority of cases me- chanical ailments spring up and de- velop into serious troubles before CONVERTED WAR CADILLAG WIN’ Goes 103 Miles an Hour in Saeed Classic after 15,000 Miles of Hard Use ASe- part _Cadillaes were not designed for rac- ing purposes but many a doughboy rode so fast in them, over shell holes and along the battered highways of the war zone, that they could not re sist putting that speed to test on the race track. Sergt. Chas. D. Frey of Dallas, Texas, recently returned to the Uni- ted States with a photograph of the converted army Cadillac, which won the straightaway in the La Baule races of May 30, 31 and June 1, in France. ‘The race was against time, and was won at a speed of 103 miles an hour. The army mechanic who built the car drove it in the race. When his brakes began to drag he jerked them off. The Cadillac motor had already seen 15,000 miles of hard usage in the war zone, but with a slight change | in the gear ratie, and with its frame cut down, it presented a typical race course appearance.
