approximately $27,000, is for

$206,185 is within the six per
cent limitation and may be lev-
led without vote. Not subject
to the six per cent limitation
Is $106,325, which includes the
bond issue payments.
The amount outside the six
per cent limitation for l!62-63
at $181,160 Is $13,002 less than
the $1'J7,162 approved by voters
when the l!)6l-62 budget was
submitted the third time
year. The amount initially
set at $322,917, and then
dropped to $.500,5-12 after
budget was defeated the
time. When it was not approved
on the second try, it was dropped
further to $11(7.162.
The budget was adopted by
the school budget committee on
February 12 with Warren McCov

Shell dealers
suggest 10 ways to cut
car repair
bill
s
Your car is probably the second biggest single in
vestment you'll ever make. Here are 10 pointers
from Shell that can help you protect that invest
ment. They're easy to follow. And they might well
save you a lot of trouble, as well as needless expense.
"I Check your cooling system hose
for weak spots. Inspect all of the
rubber hoses that interconnect your cool
ing system. If they are cracked, cut or
swollen, they could give way at any time
and cause engine temperature to soar.
The result: a troublesome breakdown.
Less serious, but a potential cause of over
heating, is a debris-clogged radiator. Ask
your Shell dealer to use his air hose to
clear away clutter on the outside of your
radiator.
O Touch up scratches before rust sets
in. You can discourage the spread
of rust by using touch-up paint on body
scratches. Rust also likes to plug drainage
holes on the underside of car doors and
body panels. Keep those holes open (a
screwdriver or any pointed instrument
works fine) and you may well prevent a
rusted-through door or body section.
O Avoid 100-foot trips. It's a mean
trick to start a cold car, drive it just
a few feet, then turn it off. Yet people
often park in front of their homes, then
drive into the garage later on. This can
increase engine wear, dilute your oil with

unburned fuel and give sludge more
chance to form. If at all possible, drive
right into the garage when you arrive
home.
A Look for oil streaks on inner walls
of tires. It may take a bit of back
bending, but it's well worth the effort to
check the side of your tires you seldom
see ihe side facing in. If there's any sign
of leaking fluid on tire walls, tell your
Shell dealer. A leaking brake cylinder or
rear axle oil seals could be at fault. Either
can lead to extensive repairs if not cor
rected right away.
C Obey the cardinal rule of car care.
A professional lubrication job is still
the best way to keep your car in good
health. But it should be done on a regular
basis not "every so often." For safety's
sake, Shellubricate every 1000 miles. If
your car has an automatic transmission,
your transmission fluid level should be
checked regularly. Your Shell serviceman
can do this for you during Shellubrication.
Never "gun" your car to warm up
your engine. It doesn't help a bit.
Matter of fact, it can do more harm than
good, even increase engine wear. Many
drivers also think it's worthwhile to idle
their cars on a cold morning. But, with
today's modern engines, it isn't necessary.
It just wastes gasoline. Far better to start
your engine, wait a few seconds until it's
running smoothly then be on your way,
but at moderate speed.
7 Check a terribly neglected little ac-
cessory. People seldom give their
windshield wipers a second thought ex
cept when it rains. But wipers wear out
too. Instead of wiping your windshield,
they can smear and scratch it. Wiper
blades are easy to replace but windshields
aren't. Ask your Shell dealer to check
your blades and wiper arms next time you
see him.
O Get a midwinter anti-freeze check.
If you've had to add water to your
radiator in the last few months, you may
have less anti-freeze protection than you
think. Let your Shell dealer check your
coolant with a hydrometer to make sure
an extra cold night won't cause trouble.
Reminder: If you got a Shellzone anti
freeze guarantee this winter, you're en
titled to free refills, if necessary, until
April 1, 1962.
Q Don't let front wheels hit the curb.
Banging front wheels against the
curb is tough on wheel alignment and
tires too. So, approach the curb carefully
when you park. This sounds like a small
thing, but it can help prevent cosdy front
end problems. Suggestion: look at the
tread on your front wheels right now. If
they show uneven wear, your front wheel
alignment may need attention.
"I f Give your car an occasional
change of scenery. A steady diet
of city driving adds to the combustion
deposits inside your engine. This deposit
buildup can reduce your car's power and,
eventually, may cause trouble. But many
of the deposits that come with city driv
ing will fly out the exhaust when you hit
the open road. So, take your car for a
turnpike drive this weekend. It can be
good exercise for it. And a pleasant after
noon for you.
