PAGE EIGHTEEN PREPARDEDNESS ~~ AGAINST DELAY | | > lion It is remarkable that ists who would not 1 aking | a trip without their tool kits, will} undertake country tours of consid-| erable length without an - adequate | supply of the article necessary to-| fix up punctures and blow-outs in their tires, It has been said, with justification, that tire trouble usually 'comes in bunches" 'A car may run for sever- al thousand miles without the tires causing a moment's delay. Then, when trouble does start, it frequently happens that three or four punctures qr, blow-outs will occur on the same day: This is more than a mere su- perstit] id is probably due to the fact that in the majority of cases, all four tires on any particular car have covered about the same mileage. Consequently, wear and tear is liable to produce the inevitable result aty about the same time on one tire as it does on another, So, while an inflated tiie on a spare rim is an excellent precaution, experience has taught many men that a spare tire is a remedy which will! alleviate only one puncture or blow- | out If a second blow-out oceurs, on the same trip the motorist is, in the words of Frank Tinney, "sunk", unless he has with him the things necessary to repair that gaping hole casing. Even a spare tube i3| useless in the case of a blow-out un- | 5 legs the casing is first repaired. 3 Undoubtedly 'this lack of prepar- ednesg on the part of many car own-| ers, is due to forgetfulness, A man | will with the best intentions in the world, forget to buy the few inex- | pensive articles which he should al- | ways carry in his car as insurance against unnecessary delays and in-| convenience itor tire nishape Particular ihterest attaches; there fore, to a self-contained kit, ey | put on the market by one of the big | Canadian tire companies, which con-| tains all the articles necessary to fix | up a damaged tire: Outside Pro- tection Patch, Inside Protection Patch, Self-cure Tube Patches, Rub- | ber Cement, Rubberized Tape, | Frefich Tale," and Sand Paper. It also contains such articles as a Pres- sure Gauge and Tire Putty which, if properly used, materially add to the useful life of a tire. This Tire-Saver Kit iy made of strong, durable khaki-colored fabric with special pockets in it for every article in the kit. This feature has a double advantage----it makes the kit very convenient in age and an empty pocket (due to one "of 'the ar- ticles having been used) is a con- stant reminder to the owner to re- place that article and thus have his | kit again complete, BS. While this Tire-Saver Kit, holds ; A all the articles in a way that makes | them convenient to use and protects them against damage through being shaken around in the tool box, the complete kit costs no more than the cost of the articles in it if bought separately, PROPER LUBRICATION ; SAVES WORN BEARINGS Persons Who Want to Give Life to Their Motors Should Give Heed in Time. Proper lubrication of bearings and all necessary parts,of a motgr is urged by every man who is thorough- ly grounded in the needs of the mod- ern small gas engine. Much has been sald and written on the ques- tion of hihrication, bit a"great deal of it written in Such a way that it is a hard for the layman to understand. . It would well repay the motorist to iw give this subject careful attention. Efficient lubrication is Important, both from the. standpoint of the mo- tor manufaétire and the user. It is important to the manufacturer be- cause after he bas spent time and money and given care to the selection of materials to be used in the con- struction of the motor, the *wearing parts , no madfer how good they may . be, will soon wear out if not properly lubricated. A well-known authority has stated that a bearing inefficiently lubricat®d will wear more in two miles than it will wear in a thousand miles if ed- ciently lubricated. The user is henefited by using proper lubrication, because it will keep his motor ig good condition and he will find it will be able to develop The object of lubrication is to re- duce friction. Friction is the resist- . ance' which every material surface yee to the sliding of any other face upon it. This resistance is due foydughness of the surface; the more or \less into the minute depres- siong on the other, and when the mo- tion occurs these roughnesses must either be worn off or continually 1i{c- ed out of the hotlows into 'which they have fallen or both, the resists ice to pei being in elther case vite per- ptible and measurable, he introduction of a fika of lubri- cant between the moving surfaces so that these surfaces ar fon of lubricant, if ' sufficiently shfgnified, would = thow little me?

Shed rt THE DAILY BRITISH WHIG, Undoubtedly the Industry's Ss rowning Achievement | From your point of view this announcement is most important. For herein we set forth the achievement toward which the Willys-Overland organization has aimed for the last eight years. This achievement in a word is the completion of the gigantic Willys-Overland organization to a point where a comprehensive line of automo- biles can be made and marketed under onehead. This means tremendous economies--much great- er than ever before. This means the elimination of all waste, all lost motion and much greater factory efficiency. "This means an even higher grade of cars at much more attractive prices. All of which means a substantial saving for you on the next car you buy. For now and for the first time in the history of the automobile business we as one single organization offer the public a full and com- prehensive line of automobiles. This concentration--this greater efficiency--this more effective means of pulling together is going to set a new standard of low priced high-grade Qutomobile values. y SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 17, 1917. For we operate on the basis of -- --one executive organization --one factory management --one purchasing unit --one sales expense --one group of dealers --to plan, produce and sell all Overland, Willys and Willys-Knight models. Buying power is concentrated. Costs are dis- tributed over all these cars. The savings are €normous. As a result we are producing cars of exceptional quality--and marketing them at unusually low prices. Every car is built to a rigid standard of per- formance, comfort and appearance. The new models are listed in this announcement. They include Overland models from the snappy comfortable $930 Light Four to the beautiful Light Six Sedan at $2220. They include also the big, handsome Willys- Knights from 'the Four at-$1800, to the super efficient Eight at $2730. These new models establish price records, value records and performance records which we believe will prove to the public conclusively that the vast economies of vast production are the key note and manufacturing sectet of the greatest value for the least amount of money. | Overland Sales Rooms Arthur W.
