the majority of our cats today are
nearly 10 years old. Many have
left the highways already, and
It is more Important than ever to
keen those that are left on the
job so that
workers may
use them to
keep on the Job.
Transportation
Is vital to our
war effort.
"Several fac
tors indicate
the wisdom of
greater care to
prevent at least
a temporarily
laid un automo
bile. Automotive dealers are unan
imous in their statements that the
parts shortage will be acute this
summer. liven now it is impos
sible to get many parts, and
where they can be gotten there is
often a delay of weeks or months.
Coupled with this is the fact that
there are fewer mechanics to serv
ice cars, ,-Ind with all cars older,
mechanical service has been in
creased many times. That is why
it sometimes takes a week to a
month to get a car repaired, even
where no new parts are involved.
"You may feel there is little
danger of your car going off the
road before the war's end. But
there is great danger .that you
may have a mechanical break
down, and your car may be laid
up anywhere from a week to sev
eral months before It can be put
back on the road again.
"In many cases this can be
avoided by proper care of your
automobile; and pummer proofing
js designed to do just this. Realiz-
some cases im possible for work
ers to keep on the job unless they
keep their cars on the job too,
dealers have organized to give
prompt and effective service to
prevent tne ureaKuowns anu in

warning of Al Nielsen, local Mobil
gas and Mobiloil distributor, "No
car can run without these vital
accessories, and Indications are
that along with most other civil
ian commodities they are going
to be scarcer than ever. This is
particularly true because so many

ducts, n 1 . .
"That's why dealers are urg
ing customers now tn luUo t,,n
advantage of their tire and bat
tery Inspection service which
helps make these accessories wear ;
longer, and catches small defects
before they disable the accessory
completely.
"Particularly in the case of tires
is it necessary to avoid the need
for.a new one. Proper inspection
to keep foreign materials such
as nails, glass, tacks, etc. out of i
the tread ; occasional cross-switch-'
ing and recapping before tires are
too far gone, may mean the dif-j
ference between the use of your-
car and having It laid up in the
garage for weeks or months." .
