Our experiments prove, and the
experienced of millions of. motor
ists confirm them, that spark plujrs
should be changed after . 10,000
miles of driving. Beyond that point
it is false economy to keep them
in use aH they waste more oil and
(rnsollno than a new set .costs.
owever much we may Improve
the spark plus to meet now enplne
conditions, this necessity will still
bit apparent. It will be true In
1040. as It is in 1930 and has been
for several years, that it is better
economy for every motorist to in
stall n, convplcto new- set of spark
plugs at least once every year.
BISHOP'S SON HELD IN SLAYING
Few mechanisms rival the spark
phitf hi the strains imposed on It.
Kvery mile a car runs each of its
spnrk pliiffs must flro Its ehnrno
llfiOOO times, each one at the uxaet
thousandth of a second when It Is
needed and always In tem-pera-turos
varying from normal to as
high na 1000 degrees. This Is opo
of tho reasons why motorists In
stall new sets of spark plugs dur
ing National Champion Change
Week, which this year is from May
5 to 11. ,
Thousands of tests by Champion,
engineers have proved that the
owner of a motor car who changes
spnrk plugs after 10,000 miles of
driving, or at least once a year,
actually saves oil consumption, be
sides Increasing his -enjoyment of
his ear's improved performance
and saving repairs caused by de
terioration of his engine.

SPARK PLUGS
ANY of our customers need no
. inducement to cliangc their spark
plugs every 0,000 miles, other than the
assured continuation of the better per
formance which this change means to
every engine.
This is Champion National Change
Week. First established tsix years ago,
it is now a yearly reminder to motorists
throughout the city to share in the
benefits enjoyed by changing to a new
set of Champions every year.
Last year all our customers who in
stalled new Champions at the 10,000
milt; murk secured more power and
speed, Jaslct acceleration, and all-
around better performance and rroi
omy for an entire year.
ThischangeactuallycoHt them nothing,
for new Champions save their price in
less gas and oil alone. ; ' -
All motor car manufacturer, recom
mend that car owners chuugo their
spark plugs every 10,000 miles, and .
millions do so, just as they change their '
oil at more frequent intervals. They
do this because they recognize the
transition to which every park plug,
no matter how .-well made, in subject
in modern high speed, high com
pression engines.'"
The insulator becomes carbon en
crusted and the electrodes corroded
through pitting ami burning. This
diffuses und wcukens the spark. Com
bustion is not complete. Cus is wasted
and peeps by tho pinions to dilute the
oil. Power is lost. The engine become
sluggish. Speed is Impuired.
New spark pines change all this. Ther
is more complete burning of the gu.
Power is increased. Muggishness is
gone as the engine picks up more
rapidly. Speed is restored.
Although Champions will continue to
function almost indefinitely, there has
always been economy in cbuugiiig them
every 10,000 miles, or at least once u
year. The economy of continuing
Champion's better performance, of. the
saving in gas und oil, uf freedom from
trouble all these arc achieved.
ISring your car to us, have n complete
set of Champions installed, and enjoy
belter performance for the next year.
