SUNDAY, JANUARY DODGE MAKING COACH MODEL Attractive New Five Passenger Car Is Displayed. é ittractive new coach has been added to the Dodge Brothers line of passenger cars and is on display for the first time at the New York auto mobile show. ‘Characteristically Dodge Broth. is the comment most frequent ly made by persons examining it Careful regard for quallt us beauty {s evident in every dotail of construction and appointment. ‘The graceful lines are set off to advantage by the lacquer finish in Dodge Brothers blue, with a body stripe of cartouche yellow. Shroud and belt are black and the artillery wheels are blue. Doors and windows are exceptionally large, affording a clear viston on all sides and permitt ing passengers to enter and leave the car with the greatest ease. Each of the two doors is equiped: with pull-to handle on the molding, great jy s'mplifying the closing, The car fm locked by a high-grade lock on the right door, well as The two front seats tilt forward, adding further to the convenience of ocoupants, The rear seat is specious and comfortable, affording ample room for three adults. The up- _ holatery {s dara brown, attractive and of excellent wearing qualities. The equipment also includes a rubber mat in the forward section and nr carpet on the rear floor, dome Mmht, foot rest, mechayteal window lifters, *transinission lock and aujo. matic windshield wiper. The latte {« controlled by a valve on the in- atrument board and is regarded as usually efficient. The windshield is of the one-piece, self-ventilating type and carries a fixed visor. Equipped with baloon tires and a. nomrumble roof, and built on Dodge Brothers standard chassis, it rides smoothly and comfortably over any roads. There {s every reason to believe according to the Dodge /Brothers dealer, that demand for the coach will quickly reach exceptional pro- portions, “The sturdy construction and smartness of the Mines and interior appointments, not to mention the proven dependability of the chassis, make it difficult to believe that this coach could be sold for $1,095 f. o. b, Detroit,” he said. “But that ts the ‘price—and I am certain the public will 1k rf pee ul yy Ae a Se SELLING CARS TO SWISS IS REAL EFFORT Buying an automobile in the Unit- ed States to’ most people Involves not much more consideration than purchasing a new suit of clothes. Driving the car after !t has been de-| livered, even on long tours, too, is| a simple thing, easily within the capabilities of most American wom- en and manp thousands of 15-year- old children In Switzerland, however, both are important tasks not to be undertak- en lightly said Werner Risch, Swiss distributer for the kard Motor Car company while visiting the Packard factory this week. Not less important is the maintenance of the car, he added, “You people here in America make a dollar as easily as we Swiss make three francs,” said Mr, Risch. “This means, by comparison in the earn- ing effort outlaid for a car, that when a Swiss buys a car, which would cost an American $8,060 he is spending something like $9,000. And you can be assured that every thing on a car is subjected to the most minute scrutiny before a Swiss buys it.” Che Casper Sunday Cribune PAGE FIVE. Dealers Dependable Use These Pages WALTER P.

If you have half an hour to spare, you can use it very profitably to make an examination af your lighting system and get better acquainted with it, so that if in the future any trouble occurs while you are out on the road, you will know where to start to look for it. _ _ The first thing to do is to find out what'system of wiring is used. This may te cither a single wire or a two wire system, and can be decided very quickly. Remove one of the lamp bulbs and examine the base. If a one wire system is used. you will notice one contact only in the center, while if a two wire sys- tem is used, there wili be two contacts or blobs of solder. When a single wire system is used the negative terminal or the one marked—on the battery is “at- tached to the frame of the car or is “grounded”, while the wire lead- ing from the posttive terminal marked + leads to the starter and the switch box on the instrument board. From the switch box, which usually contains the fuses also, a wire leads to the lamps and makes contact with the blop of solder in the centre of the ari bulb. When the switch is turned on cur- rent flows from the positive terminal of the battery to the lamp bulb and returns to the negative terminal of the battery from the side of the filament in the lamp that is grounded through the base of the bulb, socket and frame. In the two wire system, the wires from both positive and negative terminals are led to the switch box and ‘two insulated wires then carry the current to the two contacts at the base of bulb If you find that the lights will not BULB USED BULB USED WITH SINGLE - WITH TWO WIRE SYSTEM. WIRE SYSTEM paren burn at all or are very dim, the first place to look for trouble is at the battery. In nine cases out of ten it will be found on examin- ing the terminals that they are badly corroded. In this case re- move and scrape or file them per- fectly clean then replace and see what difference it makes. At the same time examine the ground wire connection to frame, It is neces- sary that it be perfectly clean and tight. 2a If you find that this makes no difference then start the engine and watch the ammeter. If {$ shows discharge or if the needle does not mpve at all, the trouble may lie in box or in a defective generator or CORRODED TERMINAL WHEN LIGHTS FAIL “EXAMINE BATTERY TERMINALS AND GROUND WIRE CONNECTION a loose connection in the switch old time 0 ns y ar ago, before Herr Volstead kicked over the well known bucket of soup Lee Doud went to Denver last Thursday on urgent business.* H returned Saturday noo b happy and full of the old time vigor W.

In this case the average man should consult_a good starting and fighting service sta- tion, for this trouble is one that requires expert knowledge to remedy. lf you find that one lamp only is out, the location of the fault is fairly simple. First examine the lamp bulb to see if it is burnt out. If it is O, K: then take the cover off the fuse box and examine the fuses, The probability is that you will find one of them is blown. In this case before replacing, examine the wiring to see if the cable connected with the lamp has rubbed through its insulated covering at any point. If the fuses appear to be all right, then take oye the lamp bulb and carefully clean the contact at the base with a ece of fine sandpaper and at the same time clean the contacts inside the socket. Make certain that the connection between the end of the wire and the socket is clean and firm. Examine the insulation on the wire and see that it has not rubbed through at any part and that the copper wire inside the covering has not broken. Flickering lights are banal caused by loose or dirty cennections and the way to remedy this fault is to carefully examine all of them in the defective circuit to see that they are tight. One way to prevent inconvenience if you do .very much night driving, is to be prepared for trouble. Carry one or two spare bulbs and fuses then when a lamp or fuse does happen’ to blow out, you can repair the trouble without any waste of time. Another good idea is to fit a spot light and arrange to run the wires from it direct to the battery terminals,‘so that in the event a trouble develops that puts the whole lighting system out of order (exclusive of battery trouble) you can always depend on at least one good light to sce 4 you Walt Storrie says that he's In fa vor of the auto show no matter when it's held.
