Work, That'. All What', wrung with this Idea? &k a motoring expert or the pro bono publico variety, aottlng forth the Idea aomewhat a. follow.: If there la a filling elation on tho Corner, connecting with both .treeta, and the light at the Inter action U red, nhy not muke a right turn by cutting through the nation1, drive or to go atralght ahead, cut through the drive and get back onto tho original' thor oughfare by making a right turn. There la tho Idea. Now for whal'a wrong with It! in the flrat place, It wouldn't bo a aportlng thing to do, and It would be contemptibly unethical with rc.poct to fellow motorlata. In the aecond, filling atatlon drlvcwaya are not public thorough farea and by the tlma eight or ten motorl.ta put the Idea Into prac tice, the proprietor of the .tntlon would roiiueal a few policemen to arrest the tro.paaoera. Another thing that', wrong with tho Idea I. that ntlngllng with iraf Ilc around a busy filling .tutflon 1. one of the mo.t effective way. of waiting time that ever ha. been devt.ed. Still another wonknee. of It la thnt It trlca to circumvent a meth od of traffic control thnt was In.tl tuted to move motor vehlclea amoothly and aofcly. Tho traffic authorities In auch a cane, might be Inclined to resent the practice. Then, there la the fnct that the light change, from time to time nnd the motorist might find himself hung up longer than It he atuck lo hla original course. Apart from these few defects, tho Idea may have some merit. MnylM He Know. Better When the man ahead drives slowly it la not always a aign that he doe. not know any bettor. Re cently a motorist waa noted picking hla way glngorly over a atrctch of road that to the casual glance look ed smooth and Inviting. The blast of two Impatient horns drove him over to the aldo of the road but did not Increase his pace. The other car. passed at speeds too fast for them to stop before hitting cut thnt oxtended entirely across tho highway. One of them broke a aprlng, :ie other cut a tire almost In half. So, maybe the motoriat ahead la driving slowly because ha knows better than to do otherwise. The Old Mechanic Sn.va I'm a great believer In thla visual education. That', w hy I was .how In' that chap that bucket of crank- case drainin'a when you drove up. Hy showln1 him Just how dirty, how thin, and how filled up with abrasive and aludgo the crankca.e lubricant gets, 1 figure he'll be in cllned to pay a lot more attention to the engine oil In the future, You sec, one of the big trouble with gettln' a man to tak proper care of any fenture of the car la that he doesn't have a picture of what happona If he doesn't give a hang about lakln1 care of It. The case of engine lubrication lllus nates the thing particularly well. The average man think, of en gine oil a. he .ee. It In tho con miner at the flllln' station a nice, green thick look In' Mould capable of doln1 a good Job of .oparatln' niovln' part, of th engine. That' th way It stuns out but It doesn't slay that way lung. A few minutes In tha engine and the oil get. a blackl.h color and Ita body or vl.coslty fall, quickly under high tern perature.. That doesn't mean that th oil's no good after It'a been on duty a few minute.. It will la.t a long while after It get. hot and dlrty lookln', hut hot nearly aa long aa mont ear owner, aeem to believe, I hono.tly believe that chap learned more about engine oil by lookln' at those drainin'a than he'd have learned In any other way In the same time. Aa a matter of fact, I like the Idea ao well, I think I'll try It on all the new cor own er, and a lot of tho old one. who come In here. It Mnkc for Good Will Jnluodlng' cars on the public In a great rush to get the rloorn clear ed for new model. I. passing out of the motor car retail picture. It ha. been practiced to a certain ex tent and has been found distinctly wanting in tha preservation of good will. A distributor In one city not long ago found himself with 62 cara on ht. hands alx weoks prior to th In-, troductlon of new models. He had to sell them and he did not want to sacrifice the good will of the 62 buyers. What did he do? Well, he Instructed his salesmen to tell every prospect upon whom they wore calling that the new models were coming and that the fact changed the altuatlon with regard to the value of the cara at which they were looking. In each case, however, the aalesman made the point that the present car was a good one, able to hold Its own In any company. With the price concession and the success of the car to back up the salesman's argu ment of Its merit, the 82 prospects bought. The distributor Is confident that everyone of the 62 Is still a pros pective customer when their pres ent cars wear out. He has kept their good will. Pushing Latest Fad Motoriata In dlatresa formerly were towed. Nowadaya, In a great many cases, at least, they are push ed. Almost universal us of the bumper la responsible for the change. There are several thlnga to be conaldored In connection with the new development, one of which la of primary Importance: namely. that a car will pull con.lderably more than It will push and with much less strain on the machine doing the heavy work. Where grade, are Involved, the wiser tmng Is to use the tow rope. Tubes Are Longer lived Although It seem, so long ago that he will have difficulty In re calling It. the average motorist bought more Inner tubes back In the day. of the high pressure tire and during the earlier part ot th balloon tire era.. Federal fig ure. reveal that last year only 1.20 tubes per casing were aold. In 1926. the rate was 1.4. Account able for the Improvement Is the greater facility In repairing both tires and tube, and the further fact that low pressure tires are lake la In vary good condition, ac cording to highway workera. The road from Medford to Crater lake also la In first-class shape .1 though some Improvement work 1. being done on this ro.d t pre.ent nd there ane one or two ahort ess hard on the tubes. r e Same as In Cooking Women know that aluminum 1. used for cooking utensila of a cer tain character because It la an excellent conductor of heat. That la one of the very best reason. .hy automotive engineers have adopted It for pistons and, to a limited tent, for cylinder head. In the cars these same women drive.
