Among the strikingly new tlilnirs
to be seen along accessory row is
the automatic uir gauge. No morn

new proposition the motorist Is
warned by a whiMlu when the
proper pressure Is reached. It Is
manufactured by the people who
first conceived the Idea of operat
ing a spotlight through the wind
shield, and Is typical of what the
accessory people huvo up .their
sleeves.
Two companies are displaying
devices Intended to provide lubrica

and valves without Increasing car
bonization, which would be the

As a matter of fact, the special oil
used by tlieue devices Is said to
minimize carl) on trouble by keep
ing carbon deposit ho soft thut it
cannot cause prelgnltion. The
theory -of these devices Is that by
drawing through the special oil
held In a container, rnnugh lubri

vided to prevent cylinder wall wear
and lo keep the valves from stick

Much progress Is displayed In

results with certain makes of cars.
One of the oldest carburetor nuinu-

It is very Important to keep
brake lining free from all foreign
mutt em, especially oil, grease, dis
tillate, resin, glycerlno or brako
compounds. When the lining is
made. It Is treated to give a quick
stop without grabbing and with a
soft application of the brake ped
nl. When brakes do not hold, an
adjustment will overcome the dif
ficulty. If brakes full to hold
without the entire weight of the
body being thrown ugulnst the
pedal, mbkc adjustments. Make
them at the wheel and not at the
rods, for every tlmo the rod js
adjusted the leverage Is changed
and morn pressure is required to
stop the cur.

CHRYSLER
F
To meet the rapidly Increaslnr
demand for Chrysler cars In Kur
ope and to Insure adequate service
there, the Chrysler sales corpora
lion has established a new assem
bly and service plant In Antwerp,
Belilum, states L. W. Weeks, local
dealer, .
The new company, to be known
as Hoclete Anonyme Chrysler, will
operate as a subsidiary or tho par
ent oreanliatlon In Detroit, and
eventually will take care of all
Chrysler requirement for conti
nental Europe, Including Scandi
navia. i i ,s; v . v .. . ,
, The chief purpose In establishing
the .new: plant to to assure good'
service; to Chrysler pwners In Bur
ope, although later on a numbrri
of nianufaotu'rlna; operations may J
be carried om there as well. . '
The selection of Antwerp as the
location for the new plant la parti
cularly advantageous, both Indus
trially and geographically. Antwerp
Is a city of note than 116.000
population! ; and- to exceptionally
progressive., , It. la the . Industrial
center of a densely populated dis
trict which . extends approximately
S00 miles eastward nnd southward.
It Is the third largest seaport In the
world and provides splendid ocean
shipping, while Us rail facilities are
also tar. above the average. I
. Good Imbor Available. I
The building In which the new
plant will be ooated Is of modern
brick' and t tile construction, with
saw-tooth roof, and Is near the cen
ter of the cty. It has It own spur
track and la not more than one
hundred -ards from ' tho Royal
Beige ' docks, .i it la within easy
walking distance for a larger num
ber of skilled workmen, many of
whom have had experience in au
tomobile work, , '.;.'.
A rd(tor that neither leaks nor
discharges ' freely. .' through the
overflow' pipe should be drained off
more .frequently than i one that
requires frequent additions of wa
ter, jn tho cooling system has a
habit pf discharging water through
the radiator overflow pipe when
the engine first warms up, the
systerA will , keep exceptionally
clean because sediment is likely to.
lie forced upward as the water bub- I
bles upwiird to overflow. '' ' '
