The plane s pictured above ax it was displayed at the International Aero Show at London, where its design and all metal construction attracted much interest. An opportunity to demonstrate the plane to the Prince will be ought when it is returned to (London. The Prince sat in the cabin and remarked on the comfort of the seating. Other royal visitors in-, spected the Ford plane, among them being the King of Spain. I the Duke of York and the Duke; of Connaught. The plane is now on a 20.000 mile tour of important cities of Kurope. It wa the second American airplane seen in Moscow, and the first large trans port ship. Interest there was so great that 200 official of the Rus sian Government, leading aviat or?, aeronautical engineers were taken for rides.

"When your car goes on the grease rack, the operator turns to proper chart, checks it with the serial number on the car to in sure absolute identification. Then, starting with No. 1, works rh?ht around the car, treating each point in order and missing none.
