The IcsHer liaanls to which every automobile owner Is exposc-il. mild Mr McCimly, involve at most only the Iohh of the car. A car may catch file nml hum up. Fire liiHiiniMco will reimburse I lie owner for the Imsh. It may he stolen, never to ho recovered, or recovered In a badly damaged condition. If the owner hag taken out theft insurance the Hlolen ear will ho replaced without financial Iohh, or. If It Ik recovered in a reparable condition, (he necessary repairs will In made by the tiitoirauce company and Ihe car returned to the owner In khI condition. Whatever their nature, automobile aci'ideutH nearly alwayn result in some damage to tlie car itself. M may In completely wrecked by having a wagon or another car collide with It, or by smashing into a telegraph pule- In try lug to avoid such collision. ColliHlon insurance which pays for damage hub tained by the Insured car will reim burse the owner for such a loss. The major hazards to which every automobile owner is exposed are not necesisarlly limited to any fixed mln linum like the value of the car. An accident which comes under this head may Involve (he destruction of the car and the payment of thousands of dollars In damages. . Two distinot kinds of claims against the owner of the small car will arise out of such an accident claims for personal injuries to the passengers and for (bin3) a go done to (ho limousine, Liability InHUrunco will luko care of the first claim and property damagt Insurance will take care of the second claim The insurance company w handle the entire case without expense to the uipurctl and If necessary pay the damages on both counts. The problem which the underwriters of automobile liability have had to meet becomes apparent to any one who compare: the condition of tlx streets In any huge city Unlay with conditions existing ten years ago. The M e('urdy Company recently opened new offices in the Medford National Dank Ituildlng.

LITTLE THINGS TANT Tie1 tinle thinus nmv make nr mar the pteaMire of an auto trip. A lost screw, hcihc little part that ou neKlect to replm-o or lighten may eaune hours of delay on the road. He fore ntailinn on a trip, advises IV M. l.eoiun d tf I ho Crater Lake Haul ware, go over y.mr car. tighten alt these seemingly uuitnpnrtaut little screws and any that aie missing, re place.

"Almost evrr week." said Mr. leonard, "souu luttrlst funics iu villi ii wall of win- and a tale uT endless trouble because of having been held tip on the road thnnmlt nejilecting the little thinKS. We ate UHii.tlty able to fix him up out of our lari-e slock, and after one experience you nun he Mire he never uMaln 'neglects ihe little thltigH." The.e is more to washing a car than just applying water, songe and cham ois, if one Is to give the cur finish a brilliant innier and at Ihe same lime preserve that finish. At least that Is the cein-luriion W. 11. .Mclfcniald, the new proprietor of the Valley Oarage, has come to. After making a study of the Kiibject, Mr. Mclhuiald is mak ing a socially ot washing cars. Few people can understand, Mr. Ale Donald explained, when, after seem ingly keeping the dirt off the bodb of i-jclr cats, the finish in a few mouths becomes dull and lustcrlcss. Cleaning the- surface is not cleaning the finish. There is a minute spac between Hie varnish of a car and the baked -on enamel. Dirt and grease gather in this tiny space and soon all the luster is lost. When that happens the ordinary car owner is powerless, and then the ox- pert conies in. An expert washer, by the proper use of various body soaps and polishes. Is able, by hard rubbing to actually get below the outside var nish ami remove the accumulation b na1h. After a treatment uf that sort many an owner has been surprised t find the finish of his car in almost as good shape as -when new. E After buying a mm; of firewood would you keep it at the woodyard Koing there each time that you wished lo use some of it? Certainly not. Then why, alter buying a car, do so many motorists keep their car in the garage where It was bought, subjecting them selves to Ihe Inconvenience of going after It each time fhat they wii-h to use it ? No unit would think . of getting along without a woodslicU or some such place to store their fuel, yet many motorists are without garages, This practice, nerordlng'to A. h. I of the Woods Lumber Co., is a great piece of short-sightedness ,oji part of many car owners. V Mr. Mill has Investigated the so- called 'plan' method of building gar- anes and has definitely decided lha' his company for several reasons will not carry such building slock. I believe In keeping .Med ford nione al homo" said Mr. Hill, "and hcllcv that Ihe profits arising from the croc (Ion of Medford garages should go to .tledford tout ractors and architects. Hut that is not all. I also believe tli.it a competent architect nnd contractor by their knowledge of local coudl.ious iu general and their ability to b:t on the ground and produce a building that will harmonize with the home will glv anyone contemplating Ihe erection of a garage the greatest satisfaction." new convenience for the motorist has been recently Introduced In the shape of a popular priced watch with illuminated dial. Anyone who has said l bius, and meant them loo, after see ins mst maicii go out ami the 14 having to Koi out in tin- rain and hold his wad h hi front of ihe lights to find the lime will surely appreciate Ihe d vice.

VANCOrVKU. II. C, Sept. 10. The tour of the "International Wanderer", famous motor-non-stop Maxwell, from Mexico to Canada and back again, came to an untimely end. Thu service scarred little car has been confiscated by the Canadian government and Is now locked In the king's warehouse here al Vancouver. The flay after their arrival from Mexico over the scenic International highway, the mcmheru of the crew of thu car were hauled before J. M. Howell, collector of customs at Van couver, ami informed that they had violated the laws f Itritlsh Columbia and of ihe Dominion of Canada. They had entered British Columbia as tour ists and were really hi the country for commercial purposes, It was claimed. Attorneys were consulted and the Vancouver Automobile club was n pealed to. Wires were sent to oflie ials of Hit! American Aulomobilo as sociation and tlu- Itoyal Automobile club of Canada. Men of influence. promiueMI in professional and business circles oT (..'auadn, made .

Just before the government men took charge of (he tour and ended the wandering of the "International Wanderer," a crowd of several hundred persons gathered around the machine to look over the occupants nnd read the names of the towns visited en route. It was while this crowd was giving (he car "the once over that the customs officers put In an appearance nnd (J riff in and Waddell were shooed out of the country with their car and equipment.

Very often. It seems, better satisfaction can be obtained, more for your money, at home thtn elsewhere. I'p until a year ago It was the gear oral practice in Medford to send bro ken unto siilings to Portland; or Ban Francisco for repairs. Thi lpcnl blacksmith shops enjoyed; a certain amount of patronage hut those who had a great deal of this son ot work to be done had always sent it away. And then one day it w-as discovered that springs could he repaired in Medford, cheaper, more quickly and better than at tho city shops. The stage run to Crater lakes gives the Killings of tlio heavily loaded stages about as severe a test as that received by any in this section. It so happened that ono (lay about a year ago Court Hall, who operates that stage line, needed a broken spring re paired in double quick time, lie had heard of the work that wan being dono at the Mitchell wagoii.aiid Auto repair shop'on South Riverside. The spring was taken' there and today is still in service, never having given the slightest trouble. Since then Mr. Hull has hunted out broken, discard ed springs, had telini welded and these loo, are giving satisfaction. Commenting on his success, (Mr. Mitchell said: "In this line of work, as in any other, a man must under stand tho principles with which he is working. This understanding is all I hat has made our work satisfactory. We know wiierc the stress and strains come on a spring, whore weight anil thickness arc needed, where they are not needed, where to strengthen a weak spot, where to avoid giving an extra ounce of weight. The secret, in short, 'lies in Ihe ability to give a spring repair job perfect balance and a uniform springing quality." The .Mitchell company has also made a specialty; of automobile body and wheel work. If ft is foitytl necessary to prime tho cylinders through Ihe relief valves in order to statl the. engine, use as little as possible, 'as' it (ills the oil around the piston and makes It difficult lo crank the motor. We have seen easen where II was almost impossible to crank the motor, due to excessive prim ing with gasoline.
