NOW HI THE TIME To MAKE REPAIRS ON YOUR CAR. Many thrifty car owners plan to have their motor-driven vehicles over- hauled during the winter. when there is the least temptation to drive, and when the car can be spared best. Ono ol the advantages of this is that gur- m mechanics are not likely to be hurried. and so better attention can be “cured at this time. When an engine has done good Iervice it is good economy to have it 'one over thoroughly, every worn part w placed. loose parts tightened up, and IF. entire construction put In "apple pi ' order at least once n year.

It is not expensive to have the top dyed or redremsed, and to permit windows to remain out is shirtless in the extreme. l Usually the most satisfactory way is to have an expert do the necessary work, whatever it may be, but if it is possible to warm the garage a good dwal may be done by a handy man on the stormy days when other work does not press. One man used an ordi- nary, rather small-sized. double- boarded barn for a garage. He watch- ed his opportunity and bought a fairly good second-hand furnace, and set it up with little trouble. In this he has a giant stove that will heat the place up quickly and with little fuel. Here he worked on his car, truck. and trae- tor, and soon saved much more than the price of the furnace he bought.

Repair work of this kind takes time, and refirtitsh jobs need a period of hardening. The best plan is to have such work done in winter, when there is little dust flyintt. There are various types of rehnish Jobs. It is safe to say that a chain; job seldom gives satisfaction. A man who is equipped to do the work, and who will guarantee results, is the most economical man in the end. Get him to estimate on the work which ought to be done, and what he will charge for doing it thoroughly, for doing a fairly good job, or doing it so that it will just get by. l New rugs for the car ftoor or well.. made slip covers will all help to put your last 'year’s "f1ivver" into satis- factory condition for another season.
