THE OREGON STATESMAN, SAT.f:?.f. OREGON SUNDAY MORNING FEBRUARY 6, 1927 5 r Cottage Plan Attractive Plan No. fi&l Pf pi Use of a- large dining nook, instead of a large dining room, is a novel feature of the five- room cottage plan prepared by the Universal- Plans' Service. The cottage is one adapted to the needs of the small family, for provision is made for: at least , one room on the upper floor of the house. ', The ground floor has large living room extending from the front to the rear of the house with a large fireplace in the center of the outer .wall. This room is separated from the rest of the house by a central hall, into which the entry way leads. The dining nook is also -at the front of the house. One of the features of - the plan is, that with the exception of the dining nook, all rooms have double exposure, which insures adequate cross ventila tion at all times of the year. Use of shingles, stucco and half timbered work on the gables of the house gives the exterior a very attractive appearance, well in keeping with the modern tendency for individual residence construction i V ' "'-i - ' - V ::-'.

This is the conclusion reached by James Houlihan, ad vertising counsel of the Pacific coast Star car factory, after com pleting a survey of the foreign automotive markets for that or ganization. - In a report submitted to Nor- man de Vaux, active head of the Star factory, Houlihan stated that about 80 per cent of all cars used in the principal foreign countries are of American or Canadian make. . .This. -figure was . reached after a. survey of 12 of the lead ing nations.

() Now that the winter Is aboat over, it is high time for motorists to give their cars 'a thorough in spection and to perform a few lit tle tasks on them which will be conducive te smooth, trouble-free service for the rest of the cold spell. ' Rim lugs should be tightened up. Undoubtedly riding over icy roads, with a slight straining skid here and there, has loosened them iTighteneing them takes a very few minutes and means the avoid ance of considerable annoyance. Crankcase oil should be chang ed if this detail, has not been at tended to every 500 miles -or so, Winter starts in cold garages and running with the choke open are the source of much crankcase di ution of the oil with unburned gasoline which is drawn Into the crankcase. Oil is cheap; automo bile machinery is expensive; the troubles caused by insufficient and improper lubrication are cost ly, exasperating and play havoc with your car's resale value. The battery catches the deuce In winter with more frequent and harder starts and longer running with the lights on. It should be tested now for strength and water. Distilled water will cost you a few cents a pint and a pint of it will last all winter if a bottle is kept in the house and not allowed to freeze in the garage. If the battery is weak it should be re charged, not only for better start ing, running and lights but for the good reason that when a bat tery is partly discharged it will freeze and be ruined, while a ful ly charged battery will not freeze If you are using distilled gly cerine, put up by the soap manu facturers under several trade names, as an anti-freeze solution, it is time to go over the water circulation system and see that it has not loosened up. Glycer ine will slip through tiny openings which would not allow ordinary water to pass and, being more ex pensive than ordinary anti-freeze mixtures, u snouia not do allow ed to escape. If you did a good job of making your engine glycer ine tight at the beginning of the season It will take only a few min utes to put it in that condtion now. Glycerine has been adopted this year by hundreds of thousa'nds of motorists who previously used other methods of preventing the freezing of their engines. It has been "found that it has several ex tremely important advantages. It eannot gum or harm the enkine parts in any way. It will not af fect Duco or other automobile finishes. It has a higher boiling point than water and thus allows the engine to operate at a higher temperature .without boiling over. It will not freeze above 30 degrees below zero and even then .forms oniy a narmiess siusn wnich a few turns of the engine will melt. It does not evaporate and needs only an occasional replenishment with water, so that one filling of glycerine' at the beginning of the season is all that is necessary; Many motorists draw off the gly cerine solution in the spring and keep it for use next winter. Others leave it in the engine throughout the year with no harmful results whatever, since glycerine cannot corrode the metal or rubber parts of the engine. Tires should be looked over and all cuts made by running- over Icy roads and sharp switches should be filled with rubber cement to prevent their enlarging. Care of tires is. more important in winter than in summer on account of the extra strain that they are forced to endure running ; over lumpy ice and frozen ruts and the wear caused by metal tire chains. Therefore it is thoroughly import ant to keep them at the .pressure recommended by the manufactur ers. (l l. , All chassis screws, nuts and bolts should be tightened no now. The arduous running" over uneven surfaces . during,,. the past two months has probably worked many of them loose. This, if neglected. means annoying body squeaks and general lowering of the car's value. It can be corrected by the expenditure of a few minutes time with a wrench and screw driver. If you have been using metal 4ire chains for the oast two months it is about tin to look them over and renew all cross links which have become unduly worn. Nothing Is more annoying than the flapping of a broken chain against a mudguard and weak links may mean the neces sity of getting out of the car some dark cold night to remove a brok en link with inadequate tools a task conducive to high blood pres sure and low language. It Is probably kindergarten preaching to mention that all grease-cups should be filled at least every 500 or -1000 miles. but hundreds of thousands of mo torists neglect this important de tail and suffer enormous expense in consequence. The car's appearance? Well. this isn't very good weather for washing cars unless in a heated garage but if your car has Duco or other durable finish it won't hurt it to go over it with a soft cloth. But remember, most of our mudguards are not done in dur able finish, but In baked enamel, and to wipe the dirt off them dry will cause countless scratches and make them shabby long before the rest of the car. were being considered, here today following the arrival of D. I Mae Beath, -resident engineer for 'the Bureau of Public Roads. He stated that, the grading would be pushed as rapidly as the weather would permit. The com pletion of this work in the spring will be followed by paving of the same 'strip by W. Moreing, of Stockton; whose bid of $274,115. 05, secured the project for him. To keep the cost within the set limitations the National Park ser vice has reserved the privilege of Increasing or decreasing the woTk according to the funds available.

Indeed some are very poor hands at the game The fact is you've got to think fast and move fast when you elect to step in front of a vehicle that Is covering ground at the. rate of 40 feet each second. Why will humans insist upon risking a frac tured skull or worse when a little discretion and caution will give you a chance. You know yott are handling dynamite when you pit flesh and blood against the impact of a fast moving vehicle. The Jaywalker and the jayrider are first cousins. Nothing in the world but the most abominable Judgment ever induces the former to step plumb into the path of danger or the latter to attempt to dash across in front of an ap proaching train. So we urge that -:early the sensible thing to do is to cooperate with the police auth orities in their efi'orts to safeguard you.
