dust, carbon from the combustion
chamber, and fine particles of metal
worn from the bearing surfaces get
into the lubricating oil in the crank
case. All this dirt circulates with
the oil through the engine. If it isn’t
drained out regularly there’s bound
to be excessive wear and tear.
Gasoline also escapes past the
pistons and dilutes the oil.

The Public and the Telephone
Company
Does Your Engine Consume
Too Much Gas ?
In spite of the fact that a great majority of the telephone using public thoroughly understand
the rights, duties and obligations of public service companies, we find now and then an Individual
who does not understand the matter.
A telephone company, in its broadest sense, is a partnership consisting of the State as an in:
stitution, the public as a group of customers, and the company.
Something Wrong.
We Can Locate
The State determines the extent
to which the company may go and regulates Its rates, services and practices. The company furnish-
es the facilities with which these rights are exercised and the services rendered.
Those member
of the public who constitute the customers, furnish the revenue with which the company is er
abled t operform these services.
If you are not getting full mileage out of
your car you are losing money, and your engine needs
attention. Possibly the entire car needs it. Where
ever there is a “drag” there isa shrinkage in mile
age—and no car owner wants to admit that his
“bus” is not up to the standard.
No telephone company can exist without customers, and these cus
tomers must be treated with fairness both by the company and by theState.
The State does not
permit any undue burden to be placed upon a customer.
A public service corporation, in a broad sense, is merely an organized right to render the publie *
service, and in the same larger sense the service belongs to the company’s customers.
the customers are really the company.
It follows tat.
What benefits or harms the one has a like effect upon the other
We are anxious that our present customers, applicants for service, and the company shall be tree
ed fairly.
To continue to extend our service under our present condition is impoeeible.
we invite our
customers, the public of Oregon, to interest themselves in our problem.
We make a specialty of INCREASING MILEAGE in
cars. Let us do it for you.
