GOOD POINTS ON ‘WINTER DRIVING Buick Official Offers Advices and » : Urges venice of Traf- ‘s } “The practice of most Buick owners | ikto drive all the year ‘round and for} this equipped with every cold-weather con- | venionce necessary to perfect driving camfort. But there are some. miscel- | lanéous rules with which not all drivers | age familiar, but the observance of | whieh will often simplify driving even} under the most trying conditions, “says KE. B, Wilson, director of sales of the| Buick Motor company. “When drfving in snow and sleet. and} even in heavy rain, it is of. course nec- essary to\have the side ourtains closed, | Yor comfort. _ In this case, vision} through the windshield js often serious- Jy-obstructed by the snow or rain on the gtass, There are some (patented wind-! shield cleaners on the market that as- ait greatly in overcoming this condi- tibn, butt your car docs not happen m be equipped with one of them, you can get around the difficulty by. ad- justing the windshield. Leave the low. er half entirely closed and adjust the upper half so that it slants out enough | to givd ‘you clear. vision between the} Upper, and lower glasses—an inch or two will suffice. In this way the snow or rain that beats in will not bother you to any extent. “When the streets are slippery, the sfifest practice is to use tire chains. | particularly on the rear wheels. But should you be ‘driving without them, be careful how -you~handle the brakes. Never apply the brakes suddenly under these conditions. The best method is to keep your foot off the clutch pedal. Iéav- ing the clutch in engagement, and then when you wish to apply the brakes, take your foot off the throttle, close the hand) throttle entirely and apply the brake gradually. This causes the motor to help you slow down and keeps the pressure perfectly equalized on both rear wheels., Do not apply the power suddenly on slippery streets. Open the throttle gradually. If you happen to be driving down hill, you can use the motor as a brake by shifting Into second or first speed on steeper grades, then close the throt- tle. You will rarcly have to use the brake if you follow this method. ‘When the road is slippery, summer or winter, always drive at.such a speed that you can stop with reasonabje quickness without: the danger of skid- ding.

Its nearest com- petitor makes one thousand. a day, whereas the Ford company’s output is fast approaching the 3,000 mark. 2,881 already having heen manufactured in one day. The Ford starter and generator, for jit is really two separate units—is. not | jthe result of a new idea or“of a sud-of the Farm-to-Table idea, whieh had| den decision, More than eight Years {ag0, Mr. Henry Ford’s vision saw the when the food administration su |need, and his. clecirical engineers were! ca to the instrycted_to begin experimenting. Aft- seven years of constant research, which took into consideration the many different climates in which the Ford car is used, together with the factors of size and weight and an adaptibility to quantity production, 22 trial jobs were Wuitt. ‘Phese were tested in many dif ferent ways. Mr.-Ford himself used one on his car for a year, Still the en- sineers continued their experiments and improvements. Then came the order from the gov- ernment for 15,000 three-ton tanks, each one of which was to be equipped with two synchronized Ford motors. A start- er was essential, so the one now being installed on Ford cars was evolved. But, only one starter and generator was used to turn “over the two Ford motors in each tank. January 1, 1919, the Ford Motor company began equipping enclosed cars with this -new starting and Ughting system. Ford engineers say that although the entire system—) starter and generator—weighs only 31 pounds, it produces a higher torque out- put (constant rotary motion) pound for pound, than any other system on the market, When the department for building the starting and lighting systems first be- gan production, 50 hours labor was charged to each unit, but now that ma.| chinery and equipment have been in: stalled, the time per unit is four hours. Two huge armature impregnating ovens| amendment the activities of the legisla-| faction aft have been installed, each with a capa- city of 1,700 every eight hours. In these ovens the armatures are dried, soaked in yarnish and dried again. Hight hours time ik required for this one operation. The power*from the starter to the motor is applied through the well known Bendix drive. which automatically en- gages the starter and then, one® the mo- tor is started, the starter . immediately disengages. It is equipped with oilless | bearings and needs practically no atten- tion. the Ford company expects to be mal ing enough starters so, that.cyery Ford car will be equipped with the new cicc- tric starting~and lighting system. eee cases, be too insistent on maintaining your right of way.
