GIVE REAL SERVICE ?| 'No piece of Machinery Gets So Little Care or is Subjected to Such Hard Strains as a Car. | If you own a fine blooded horse, you look upon him as a real friend. |He is almost one of the family. You | &ive considerable thought to his care. { You study his moods--see that he | gets the proper kind and amount of | food; make sure that his stall is | clean and comfortable, that his har- ness fits him without galling. You {keep him groomed. If he needs shoe- | ing, you stop all other business to attend to it. In short, you go to no little pains to do everything that is | necessary to keep him healthy and | comfortable Why do you do all this? I Because you know if you neglect {him he will get sick; he won't have | the life, the pep, the speed that you | like, neither will he be able to stand [the work you need him to do. Now just apply this same thought to the automobile. Why doesn't every automobile give the satisfaction, the comfort and the good service to its owner that the fine, spirited horse gives to its owner? Because it doesn't get the same kind of care and attention that the horse received, There are today something over 9,000,000 automobiles. Now it is estimated from statistics gathered from far and wide that fully 1,000,- 000 automobiles are in repair shops, service station; or laid up for one reason or another all the time. Think of it, one automobile out of eve-y nine always out of commission! Ir I received the same solicitous care that the fine blooded. horse gets, there would never be more cars laid fip than the proportionate number of horses laid up--the trifling number--due to ordinary wear and tear. And yet the automobile is an expensive piece of machinery, costing far more than the ordinary horse. No piece of ma- chinery anywhere is subjected to such hard, wearing work, such strains, as the motor car. No piece of machinery is so abused or gets so little care. Then, when, after pro- bably months of abuse it refuses to run--breaks down on the road--nine out of ten owners will complain and probably feel that they have 'been "stung," when in nine cases out of ten it is the owners own fault. In most cases it is because he does not fully understand his car and does not know how to care for it properly. In other cases it is e to careless- ness and deliberate neglect. I do not hesitate to make the statement that every automobile bought from re- liable makers and given the proper care and attention will give the owner good and satisfactory service. There are no poor automobiles today, Some, naturally, are better than others, but there is not a car upon the market that will not give good service if it is treated right. CHALMERS HA§ A 3 VERY QUICK "PICK-UP." "Witlthe tremendously rapid in-- crease in the number of motor cars on the streets of our cities, the man- ner in which a car operates in con- gested traffic is becoming more and more important," says George VW. Parks, president of the Chalmers Motor Company of Canada. "The smooth, powerful action ef the Chalmers engine and its unity with the transmission assures rapid "pick-up" the instant the traffic of- ficer signals. . This responsiveness is positive, yet it is not jerky, for ths car moves off easily and accelerates without apparent exertion on the pari of the motors. a ue drivers especially ap. preciate the quick responsiveness of the Chalmers motor and its ability 'to hold its place in the procession or to shoot ahead when the opportunity presents itself." : Tire Pointers. Be sure to repair litle cut threads regularly Prevent blow-outs by avoiding sev- ere jolts, Have mud-boils cleaned out and Tepaired at once. Be careful in placing tubes, Avoid sudden starts, quick stops and skidding. Use tal¢ in casings, but not too much, Keep out of ruts and car tracks. Apply chains properly and take them off as soon as the need for them is gone, --p------------ The skilled gossiper has a way of varnishing up falsehoods so that it shines like the truth. TESTS SHOW ROAD . WHAT CARS HAVE President of Paige-Detroit || Company Tells of Demon= stration. "It is easy for the eye to grasp quickly the points of excellence in'a car's design and general outward ap- Dearance," says Harry M. Jewett, President of the Paige-Detroit Motor Company. "A $ursory examinatio) will also be sufficient to size up a car's fittings afid equipment. "No amount bf. close inspection, however, will ever'stiftice to get at a car's actual capabilities to deliver service on the road. There is just one way to find out what a car is &ood for and that is to drive it--to demonstrate its capabilities by actual tests in every kind of traffic and over as many different kinds of roads and grades as possible. "Paige has recently enjoyed some public demonstrations which have confirmed in rather dramatic fashion our faith in our new power plants, The demonstrations I refer to were made when the Paige Daytona Model 6-66 broke ors stock car record for speed on January 21st, 1921, and established itself as the fastest stock car in the world. The Paige also set new hill-climbing records on Avenue road and Pellatt's hills, To- ronto, on February 15th, 1921. Both these tests were made officially." -- Another strange thing is how a man will have the nerve to steal a thing when he hasn't the nerve to work for it.
