Harry Russell, for the last several
years associated with such names as
Jewett, Paige, Hupmobile and now
Graham-Paige, has taken over the
Graham-Paige agency in Eugene from
0. R- Linn.
Announcement that Mr. Russell is
entering the car dealer business in
Eugene, recalls an interesting bit of
history in connection with the lines
of care he has sold here.
Beginning with the H. J. Bringle
Motor company, when that firm took
the Jewett and Paige agencies here,
Mr. Russell has been with the same
organization of which he is now the
head.
H. J. Bringle, who has also been
closely connected with the organiz
ation -throughout its history, opened
the new building at Tenth avenue and
Olive street about a year and a half
ago, shortly after taking the Hup
mobile agency formerly held by the
Smith and Melscl firm on Pearl Btreet.
The Bringle company moved later
to Seventh and Oak street where it
is now located and Mr. Linn bought
out the Bringle interests then. Mr.
Linn continued with the two lines
until the recent announcement. .
Mr. Russell for the present will
handle only the Graham Paige car.
During the time that this firm has
been organized the Jewett car has
dropped out of manufacture and the
chief product sold was the Paige and
the Hupmobile. A short time ago a
merger of interests made the new
name, Graham-Paige.

Over the paved roadway that extends from San Diego to
Vancouver, from the Mexican line to the Canadian border,
went a Chevrolet scout car the other day to blaze the trail
for the summer touring season. The crystalline lakes of
Washington, the rose gardens of Oregon, and the gigantic
redwoods of California, were the outstanding objectives
of the trip. At the upper right is Moro Rock, Sequoia
National Park, and the General Sherman Tree, oldest and
largest of all living things. At the left, a view of an Oregon
rose garden, and below one of the scenic panoramas of
Washington.
The motor usually outlasts the
body in service for the simple reason
that.imiuedlate attention is paid to it
when it shows the least sign of balk
ing. A squeuky or muddy body, on
the other hand, can be' tolerated
without handicapping the operation
of the car.
Eventually, however, the squeaks
and dirt leave permanent marks on i
the car, rattling becomes an everyday
affair and the automobile is worth
much less than one to which atten
tion has been paid.
Yet care of the body is easier than
attention to the engine. It requires
only occasional checking of bolts and
other parts. And it demands only a
matter of cleanliness on the part of
the owner.
Squeuka come from such insignifi
cant causes as glazed contact points
between doors and pillars, between
hood and lacing, at the "hood clamps
and at the door lock. All they need
is slight lubrication, a drop of oil in
the lock, or a touch of grease along
the contact edges'
Slight rattles come from' parts
loosened by ' the 1 inevitable1 vibration
of the car, and jars over rough pavo
ments. The bumpers can thus be
loosened enough to rattle disturbing
ly. Tbo trimmings inside the car can
become loose and squeak. Wires in
the ignition system may trail and
strike against the body or chassis as
the car moves along. .
All that's needed Is tightening.
