Then It ts drfven onto a dynamometer and started again, ‘The entire chassis is thus tested, the rear wheels turning another set of wheels to which the dynamometer is coupled. Tt is driven on this apparatus for nearly five hours, and covers a dis- tance of well over a hundred miles ‘The resistance of this dynamometer is equal to that of climbing a three per cent grade. First, second, third and reverse gears are used in mak- ing this test. After completing this long run*the head is removed, the Suyalves are ground and all moving parts are inspected. Then comes the road test. The chassis 1s taken out on the road and run at varying speeds. All sorts of roads are used for this test, hilly, smooth and cobblestoned, the plan of the testers being. to give the chassis the same sort of treatment as it re- ceives in a cross-country trip. After this road test a final tost- er takes the car and runs it for five miles. Then it goes back to assembly, the body Is swung into place and the entire assembly completed. Then it is given what is called the “customer's test’? conducted by a members of the sales department. When ready for shipment a mem- ber of the mdtor department runs the engine for some time. before he marks the final okeh on the card. Then it is placed {n the automobile car and shipped to its destination HOW 70 AVOID MONOXIDE GAS (Continued From Page One) from the deadly gas from motor ex- haust, carbon monoxide. The #1 experts at the bureau, R. R. Sayers and W. P. Yant, point out that the widespread use of motor cars in the less automobile “don'ts” include: Guard against operators: The running an auto the motor running, is in the open alr.

For this purpose pure oxygen can be used or oxygen with flve per cent carbon dioxide, to be xiven for about 20 minutes. The patient's limbs should be massaged, to restore and increase circulation, and the body should be kept warrh. The victim must rest, avoiding any exertion whatever, Carbon monoxide is doubly dan gerous, the experts aay, because it is hard to detect it im the air, It has no odor and fs tasteless.

It {s truer today than ever before that the owner of a motor car would be wise to confine his tire purchases to brands that have proved their worth over a long period of years and to stop experimenting with bar- gain brands. The prices of good tires are lower in proportion than almost any other commonly used article in daily lfe. There is so little difference’ between the cost of standard tires and that of bargain tires that !t does not pay to take the risk. “Tire users are getting more for their money than ever before in his- tory," was the recent statement cf Mr. Van Sant, dealer in United Sta tres, “Tires keep’ getting better all the time, but their prices are away down. Naturally I know more about Royal Corda than other tires. The adoption of the web cord principle of construction puts into the car- cass of this tire a degree of strength never before attained. In making of the treads—the part of the tire that comes in contact with the ground—a, new kind of rubber, called ‘sprayed rubber,’ {s used. ‘It is the toughest rubber ever known to com- merce. “There ts a great deal of satisfac- tion in being in the tire business to- day. When a dealer sells a good customer one of these modern tires he knows he is building a substan- tial good will for himself.
