Motorists who use local brands of oil will often find themselves bejoud the stnte or district where their local brand of oil is for sale. Especially on long trips they will have to accept substitutes about v.hich they may know little or nothing. When you consider that last year the car owners of this country spent over a billion and a half I uouars tail averuije ui over a car) lor neeuiess repairs anu when you consider that 75 .per cent of nil motor repairs are due to faulty lubrication, the risk of buy ing Just any oil looms large in deed. Fortunately for ' motorists on long trips. Veedol Motor Oils and Orenses are sold in every state In ; the Union. This means that.where j ever cars tour they will see the I familiar orange anil black signs. It also means that they will be as sured of the greatest protection against heat and friction for they can secure the proper grade of high quality Veedol oil or grease for the lubrication of every fric tion spot on their cars. Protected bv 3,000 laboratory tests a month before It leaves the refinery, the quality of the Veedol bought In Maine, the quality of the same oil bought In Minnesota. New Orleans, or California varies less than 1-20 of 1 per cent. And whether It Is purchased In Wiscon sin or Florida, every drop of Veedol Is tested to withstand beat 100 degrees hotter than the hottest frlrllon snot In any motor. For motorists who are extreme ly particular about safeguarding themselves and their motors, there ere 1 and 5 gallon handv canB of Veedol sealed at the refinery, and only opened by the motorrsls when he needs oil on the rnad. These can he bought from Veedol any where, and they are excellent "spares" to lake on trips through sparccly-settled country. n HE'LL. UNDERSTAND Hettv: "Have you any green lip stick ?"

Careful study of the proposed Co lumbia river basin reclamation pro iBed by President Coolldge today lect In Washington stuto was prom- to n group of western citizens who called to explain the proposal. Mr. Coolidge undersluuds the Columbia river protect would cost moro than $100,000,000 mid whilo lie favors such propositions in a general way he r.iudo it clear to day that he would like more Infor mation on this gigantic undertak ing. As n general rule, tho prcsldont would like to see alien develop ments proceed as -fust as funds from the reclamation work would permit. He listened attentively to the delegation from the far north west. , ' Mr.: Coolldge ngraed to discuss the matter with Secretary Work, members of the delegation said, with a view to determining what place- the project should have in the national program for reclama tion, irrigation and flood contrql. Project Outlined. Hervey Llndley, president of the Columbia river basin league, ns spokesman for the group, told the president that the project, "has tho enthusiastic support of practically all Interests In the four states ar- fecled. Oregon, Idaho, Montana and Washington." The project has ns Its goal the reclamation of 1,800,000 acres to be developed over n period ot 35 years. The delegation toiu ir. uooimge the protect, would not affect pres ent production of agricultural pro ducts, "as the first unit or de velopment would not be In full op eration for 20 years."

Twenty Chevrolet chassis were recently purchased uy the Detroit branch of a national firm whose business is selling ice cream and Ice cream products on the major traffic arteries In and around the city. Ten were also bought for similar purposes in Portland, Ore. On every chassis Is mounted a specially constructed body Into which the refrigerator Is built as unit. The refrigerator occupies the upper section of tho body, while beneath It Is the cooled compartment with a capacity of 960 bricks of Ice cream. The tem perature of this compartment, ac cording to Pat Potter, special rep resentative of the company, Is maintained at from 5 to 10 di-grees above zero to insure that the Ice cream bricks and "suckers" will be sufficiently hard frozen to tempt the parched motorist. "This refrigerator. "Mr. Potter explained, "has a 6 Inch Insulated wall and a capacity of 300 pounds of Ice and 75 pounds of salt. Av erage consumption of Ice is 24 hours In about 125 pounds. This Is packed into the tank through an opening on the roof, and is Bum cient to keep Ice cream appetizing In the hottest climate. Every morning the trucks take on a fresh supply and then hurry to designated places around the cities In which they are operated Ail sales from these portable store-rooms are made by the road Heading' VtLOGd!

Chevrolets were selected to carry the refrigerators, It was ex plained, In order to get rapid, eco nomical and dependable transpor tation. Thy also answer the re quirement of being neat and Hi tractive and having a' "sales ap peal." Twenty-five of tho leading cities of the country, extending from coast to coast, now have these refrigerator cars. "The facility with which the Chevrolet can be adapted to the requirements of u business n re markable." commented Mr. Han son, the local dealer. "Their up paeranre counts for much in ad dition to their power and economy of operation. It would not surprise me much to see one of these cars disposing of Ice cream products to motorists of this section at any time." II "On itiiy old Ran at all."

Hudson- Kssex engineers explala that the design of both these cars Is such that the line of chemlcully treated or otherwise 'doped' gasoline Is not at all necessary, despite the cars' high compression. With any type of motor car fuel, it is said, these cars are fcnnck-proof. Tests have been held with the cars on hills and other 'rough' spota around Kosehurg, but according to Hoy Catching, Hudson Kssex distributor, tho cars have operated with the pep and power of high-compression racing motors, yet it has been Impossible to make them 'ping' or knock. "This factor In Hudson-Essex design," said Catching, Hudson Es sex distributor, "l a saving to tho motorist because he does not pay a premium tor special anti-knock fuel. Moreover, he needn't worry about watching bin fuel supply. He can drive up to any old Rasoline stniion, put In tho type of fuel they havo for salo, and be quite all right. "The Essex motor has an excep tional compression rntlo. It is about 25 per cent higher com pression than, baa been carried In standard motors, and It. resultn In boiler performance and Improved fuel economy. The owners of Es sex Super-Six motors ure well awaro of the zip and power of their cars. Essex Ib super-modern In its design as to high-compression, and It adds to this faculty the ad vantage of using 'Just fuel.'" "The Essex and tho Hudson mo tor are similar but not Identical In design. The Essex la the Ideal high-compression motor for Its slr.e, whilo In the larger Hudson It is necessary to have a somewhat different valve arrangement. Each Is designed for Its own individual best results, and each la accepted by the public aa an unqualified success."
