Those odd noises coming from in and around an automobile, are the most annoying disturbances for a driver. And rightly so, because every unusual noise has a me.aning of its own. We've discovered that most of these 'birdies' can be chased with our greasing service, but sometimes they are warnings for bigger jobs in repair if not corrected in time. We're compiling quite a list of different squeeks and rattles and so far the one in the lead is a loose tailpipe or muffler. For the most puzzling, loose manifold heat valves. Drive in at Highway 31, McHenry, 111., and let us 'chase those birdies' from your car. Phone 331 SPECIAL. DISCOUNT TO CO:'M MUT^BS Chicago Plans For Big.
