'. Again, this idle drivel about the
municipal auto camp question!
Eugene merchants and owners
of garages and filling stations here
who subscribe to publicity funds
nnd who pay city taxes in the con
duct of their business, do not pro
pose to be dictated to by owners
of private auto camps outsido of
the city llmit8 and by newcomers
In Eugene, who odiously presume
to write their tickets for them.
And it would seem that this agita
tion to close the municipal auto
camp in order to give outside own
ers of camps full sway ln revenues
is the- best possible argument in
lnvor of its retention as a dis
tinct asset to the city. Payjng out
money to induce motor tourists to
locate here then keep them out 'of
' tfrijta .,.
Nose Called Poor Guide
In Detecting Car Gas
"Your nose knows" Is a wonder
ful catch phrase. But In every-day
life, especially where life and health
are concerned, It's not safe to take
the words seriously, ven- though
your nose knows many things. .
"Do not depend upon your nose
to tell you when your garage is
being . filled with deadly carbon
monoxide gits." saws Dr. Vernon A.
Chapman, Milwaukee member Gor
gas memorial Institute. "You can
not smell the gas. This deadly gas
Is manufactured while you are
warming up the motor on a cold
winter morning before starting out

Gone are the Old r
Penalties of Low Price
Until the new Pondac Six was de
veloped, it waa literally Impossible to
buy a IcJw priced tlx without accept
ing certain admitted penalties those
of ordinary beauty, ordinary perform
ance, ordinary comfort and ordinary
stamina , .
Now the new Pontine Six changes
oil that. Developed by engineers who
could draw on the almost limitless
resources of General Motors, it pro
vides not only the economy of an
unexpectedly low price but every
characteriitic of high quality.
It provide! the striking beauty of a
martoomy Fisher Body! complete
freedom from pitching, llde-ewav
and gallop) entirely new qualities of
get-away, apecd, smootnneia and
fiowert and above all, a stamina and
ong life that caii be achieved only
by Che strictest standards of design,
material, workmanship and In
spection., j i,, ji i
t And because It gives all that It does
at so low a price, the new Pontine
Six has won from the very hour of
its public presentation a wildfire
reception, the lika of which no other
new tlx has ever enjoyed before.
