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 ::-'. '
Two sets" of blueprints, and specifications for the construction of this house may be obtained for
a nominal fee upon application to the

American Cars Maintain
Lead in Foreign Markets
American automobiles are
maintaining their lead in foreign
markets. 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.
The report also stated that In
1921 the automobile exports of
the United States and Canada
furnished only 35 per cent of. the
total number of cars in use In the
countries In which the survey; was
made hut that the percentage of
Import was increased until the
tot al of 60 per cent was reached
In 1925.
in reviewing the foreign mar
kets, Houlihan pointed out .' that
Europe has proven to be. the
most competitive field for Amerl
can automotive products while SO
per cent of the automobiles in
use in India are of North Ameri
can manufacture.

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.

limitations the National Park ser

their machines are blocking
the path, start to back up a few
