The Automobile REPAIRS MADE IN TIME SAVE EXPENSE. WhUe ihP whole fabric of our clrlll- Mtion it built on Um f»ith one human beln< baa In another, lu the automobile c«alm of life there appears to be a elusion U that a mechanic who d»- Totftt all his- time to one kind of car win be more efficient on that particu- lar make than a general mechanic who works on all kinds of machines. WTille service stations are constant- ly Improvtug their senlces and con»e- Mvere strain on this faith on the jmrt " -, „,g,- cUances of securing and the service eta- â- "• . ,.

But wheirhte car gets sick tie often falls to have conUdence In the aulo doctor'* abllltj to rectify the trouble. There are hardly any exceptions to tho general rule that the man who owns an automobile has a car that will develop troubles of various kinds â- ooner or later. Although cars are be- ing iiiade better every year and trou- bles of all kinds should conseQuently become lee« and less, troubles do oome. , Unlesa the owner of the machine Is an ^ eipert automobile mecbanlc himself, | Which be Is not likely to be, he will do well to visit a reliable repair shop with ; oonQdence in the results. This Is ^ merely an application of common sense | to a motoring experience. Even if he ^ Is a fairly competent mechanic, which : most folks are not, he will often find j U desirable to call on another expert ' automobile mechanic to get tho ad- ' vantage of his experience. He will do well to take the advice of the man ^ whose buslaese It is to kBow what Is . the matter with a car and what ought to be done to it to repair it correctly. â- ; 8EEK ADVICE OF EXPERT. | It Is alao Important for the owner to seek the advico (rf an expert at the first Indication of trouble icsload of putting off thi.s procedure until the ma- chine has gone into a decline or until it has, In fact, reached a sortous state of trouble. When such a policy Is fol- 1 lowed repair bills are not likely to be larger In tho long run. j There i.s a tendency for nn owner, tgnorantly to complain about tho size i of hlH repair bills and to condemn the repair shop owners us pirates. In spite of this feeliuK on the part of many, as j a rule men who run repulr shops do j not charge exceEalvely, nor do thoy ^ try to do more work than l.s necessary. No bii.'tlnese could flourish practices. There are owners of a car who some times full to uppreclate the time and materiul involved In making even minor repaius or what a minor repair may lead to by way of other essential attention. I recall a man who drove his car into been without coc.slderable reason. Numerous managers in this repair business have failed to appreciate the value of having trained experts In their employ. They can hardly expect car owners to have supreme confi- dence In their prescriptions â- unless they Insist on employing only "Ihose technicians who by their experience and training are worthy of the respect of the automobiiist.

EKh-ECTIVE SERVICE. There Is Increasingly In the auto- mobile Industry an appreciation of the need of giving motorists complete and efficient servicing facilities at the most reasonable prices possible. After a car has been properly designed, man- afactured In quantity and ecouomicai- ly distributed to the buyer, the next essential to the Industry's prosperity •nd to the owner's satisfaction is ef- fective servicing.

Life itself is the largest of cross- word puzzles, and the prizes, like tho visits of angels, often seem few and far betwe«n. Our best Intentions are misconstrued. Our benevolent de- signs miscarry. Where we had looked for peixeptlve comprehension and fur- therance we meet with a bewildering rebuff. But all the time we must read a meaning, spell out a riddle, discover and apply a definition, though moving in the dark from the first word, which was with God, unto the last. Throughout our earthly days, what we call success and what we consider happiness depend a great deal on our putting tho right words in the right places. Sometimes, written or spoken, language seems a hopeless' misfit, la- mentably Inadequate to meet the situa- tion. Ou the other hand, there are for- tunately constituted mortals for whom legions of words, at a sumtnons, are ready to arise and obey the bidding, with felicity. There Is in most human beings the Ineradicable spirit of curiosity, of ex- ploration and -of competition, which the ruling craze for the cross-word puzzle serves to illuetrate. We are piqued and spurred by problems set; we are put on our mettle by what at first sight seems Insoluble. And our own course across the checkered field of life cannot by any means be laid without reference to the way that is taken by others, with which our own is Intel-laced.
