Ralph Mulford, veteran race driv: er was her pilot, The record was hung up on the Culver City, Cali- fornia speedway where great speed is made possible by the steep bank: ing of the curves. The Chandler roadster clipped off the 1,000 miles in 689 minutes, which is an average speed of $6.96 miles per hour, The same model is now on display in the salesroom of the John M.

Cribune AYGROUND Io OPENED BY TOUR Packard Journey Last September Revealed Canada’s Beauty. A new and vast playground, called more beautiful by many than the mogt beautiful sections of the Swiss Alps, may be opened to American motorists as a result of the hazard- ous path-finding trip which Austin F. Bement, secretary of the Lincoln Highway Association, made across Canada recently, Bement's trip, the first ever made across the Dominion in an automo- bile, was widely heralded tn Septem- ber. For sixty-three miles of dis- tance he drove ‘his Packard Six aport model, offialal car of the Lincoln Highway Association, over the ties of the Canadian National Railroad. This was through the Fraser river canyon between Lytton and Hope, B, C., a section of the proposed — transcontinental route which no automobile ever before had been able to negotiate. Seventeen tunnels and 150 tressles, some of them hundreds of feet above the roaring Fraser river, had to be ne- | gotiated It was the most severe test for man and car through whieh any motorist ever passed success- fully. Bement proved that a way could be won by a motor car through the passes of the Slerras which pre- viously had been considered impas- sable to motorists. Following his record breaking trip, the Canadian Northwest has awakened to the pos- sibilities for development of the country through reads that will in- vite American tourists Almost with the arrival of the Lincoln Highway Association's Pack- ard in Vancouver, Beme: objec tive, clamor for a coast-to-coast highway in Canada rivaling the Lin- coin Highway in the United States started. Bement added impetus to the movement by speeches in a num: ber of towns and cities in the Ca adian Northwest in which he related the story of the Lincoln Highway and told of the comparative ease with which a modern highway could be built through the mountains. | “The Northwest is a score of Switzerlands in one,” said Mr. Be ment When roads are built open- ing the district to automobile tour- ists from the United States it will become one of the greatest play- in the world.” PIERGE-ARROW STARTER GIVEN COMPLETE.

The elimination of waste in gaso line and ofl used for automotive fuel and lubrication has long been a mat ter for serious consideration on the part of automobile manufacturers. Many manufacturers have achieved no small measure of success in their efforts to reduce gas and oil con- sumption by increasing gas and oil mileage through highly developed carburetion and oiling systems and oil-tight motor construction BALL BEARINGS ARE IMPORTANT IN THE ANNUAL OVERHAUL On several occasions ihe writer has been struck by the lack of bestowed by owners and g Let’s Call Ita * Proved Car— IMPROVED!
