SUNDAY, AUGUST 26, 1923. Che Casper Sunday Worning Critune DODGE CLUTCH PEDAL EASIER Control Is Improved in New Model Through Leverage Change. There is one improvement in Dodge Brothers motor cars which prospects pass over without much comment when it is being explained to them, but which they all speak of with real enthusiasm after they have driven the car according to the local Dodge Brothers dealer. ‘This is the remarkable ease with which the clutch lever is now con: trolled, due to a change in leverage | between the foot pedal and clutch r. | ‘ot having had to exert them s unduly in manipulating the clutch pedal on Dodge B cars of past sitors do not excited over this unimportant change,” dealer. “How ever, get in traffic and is to let the clutch | rently said the once t find how easy in and out, v in the least, t appreciate whi This is particul true of 1 to whom a stiff clutch ped soure of much annoyance. are dozens of similar minor im-| provements, in addition to the major refinements with which nearly every one is now familiar,” Soe By SPARK PLUG.

ILLIONS OF MILES YEARLY FOR TIRE TESTS One and one-half times around'the world every 24 hours! Tires run 13,000,000 miles a year j r bet:| terment tests. This is the story of tire uniformity in one factory, of how tires are made to withstand] the grind and punishment of the/ road Tire experimentation and develop- ment is unique. It fs practically !m- possible to depend upon mathe matical formula to give the effect of even the most minor changes in construction. So complex is the dis- tribution of forces operative upon the tire, that no change may be made without most exhaustive ,prac tical tests—road tests that embrace mych severe service that if the tire nds up under them, it must of, necessity stand up under normal usage. It is no uncommon occurance in the Miller tire factory to try out 9 hundred ideas to prove one prac tical. Often years of careful study and testing in all kinds of service; are required to complete an analysis of a contemplated change in con: struction. One experiment natural- ly suggests another.
