SUNDAY, APRIL 27,1924. 10 YOUR AUTO HORN FREEZE? Head of the” Midhigan Auto School Tells Of Trouble. A motorist friend told me the day that his auto horn froze up every time the weather got cold," says A. G. Zeller, president of the Michigan State Automobile school, etrott. at investigated the trouble and discovered that it lay in the spring attached to the hammer, it being a vibrator type Yorn. * “pids spring, a flat dne, was com- osed of several: very thin leaves. YSome one had greased them very thoroughly with something congealed in a cold temperature, terally freezing the thin sheets of 1 together and forming a solid of metal too stiff for the ts in the horn to move. ne of our students cleaned off the grease, substituted a compound that would not freeze and now the horn makes as loud a racket on zero da as it does in warm weather.’ 2 a PERFORMANCE OT THE PEERLESS GIVES JOY TO THE AUTO DRIVER ion’t believe in stunt demon- strations,” says D, A. Burke, vice president and general manager of the Peerless Motor Car company, “but we have often taken a new Peerless Six off the production line, d with no special tuning up, yond what we give every Peerless that leaves the factory, throttled it down to slow walking pace, in high gear, on an up-grade, and watched it glide along easily and without ap- parent effort. “And even at that slow speed, you can push the accelerator pedal down to the floor, and the car . will in- stantly spurt into high speed with- out a stutter. “When we decided to broaden our field by introducing a Six asa com- panion car to the Peerless Hight, we promised to produce’ a motor that woud be not only exceedingly power- ful but which would be exceptional- mooth and flexible over the wide ge of speeds used in day-In and out motoring.

During the past three years the ssociation has had outstanding an verage of $4,000 in loans ranging from $10.00 to $100.00 ‘These ‘loans were to employes, and mostly unse- cured by a personal note.
