Automatic Oilers Prolong‘Ga,r’s Life Automobile manufacturers lay great stress on the fact that springs must be kept lubricated. Water collects be- tween the spring leaves and causes rust. Rust causes crystallization and broken springs. Oil is the enemy of crystallization. When- a spring is in action the leaves are constantly traveling on each other and unless their surfaces are smooth they cannot do their duty.

This means rough, uncomfort- able riding and increased wear on all parts of the car. Lately several easy ways of oiling springs have been invented. Prob- ably the’easiest and most efficient is by the new patent spring oilers. These little metal cases can be attached to the springs instantly, \ They work automatically, supplying the oil to the surface of each spring leaf by gravity and capillary attraction. They are left on the leaves all year and can be filled in a few minutes, Charlie Brickley Now Owns a Paige The famous toe of Charles Brick- ley, which brought disaster so fre-! nuently to Yale, Princeton and other gridiron opponents of Harvard, is row on a Paige accelerator, and for vhe time being will cease to dally with the pigskin.

It was not a stripped chassis, but a new car that was marched out of the dealer’s show room in Denver for the trip. Commenting on the feat,, F. W. Haines, president of the Regal Motor Car company, said: “This is but one of the most famous hills that this car has climbed to the top. Everyone of our dealers in towns where there is a test hill has been making demon- strations every day to those buyers that demand this kind of performance. “We have issued absolute instruc- tions to our district managers to test on hills if there is one within a radius of fifty miles. And yet there seems to be no hill too steep.” Batteries, Like People, Require Nourishment his is the time of the year,” says Exide service station, “when automo- bile owners who are/disposed to over- look their batteries will court trouble, Batteries are taxed heavier during the winter and although they may appear to be all right and are performing their furctions properly, it is well to haye them inspected.
