HEY.WATER
Caps are being
Worn this year!
I'm thinking of those little metal caps
that fit over the tire valves of your car—
and they’re a lot more important than
most people think. They not only keep
dirt out of the valve, but they're the only
real protection against sudden valve
leakage, and hold up to 260 pounds of
pressure I suggest that you ask your
Standard Service Man to replace any that
are missing. They cost only a few cents
and may save a tire.

When any appliance is damaged or out of
adjustment, no matter how slightly, consult
your local electric dealer st once. He's
equipped to make thorough repairs His
charges are reasonable. When you “put it
off" you invite larger repair bills later and
possibly permanent damage.
