BARTOW 171 South Commercial Street 4-4"4-- 4-' ------ After driving a far all winter in a elimate whith makes neeearr the use of anti-frroie solution, th tooling sys tem should ba tUanisl out thoroughly before the arm aeather cornea on. This is a aiaip!e task and in many ras es a necessary oae, because it seenit ;hat bo matter what kind of anti freeze solution is u.-ej,( a certain amfunt of sediment i bouud to settle in parts of the system or adhere to the cylin der and radiator malls in such a man ner as to interfere to a greater or t extent with efficient operation of the cooling sysiem. Add to this the sedi ment that always results from heating water in any kind of a esel, from a teakettle to a steam boiler, and the rea.-on for cleaning tho cooling sys tem is quite apparent. Many methods of cleaning the eool inf system have been sug!!e?U'd from tune to time by various people, but sme of ttiem are questionable because there is danger of injuring the radia tor on account of the caustic chemicals used. The following uuthoC can be reionimended as beinir absolutely safe iind at the sa-uo timo will jjivc the .ooUug system ttioro;r,a jiunurg that will remove practically all loose foreign matter. 1'irst. drain the system by n.eaus of the peteuek in the bottom of the radi ator. Then turn a lise in ue liner cap of the radiator to admit a moder ate stream of water. i-Next start the motor and let it idle at a fairly good rule i f sn.eil. leavin" the pet cock in the bottom of the radiator ojeu all the tune. This will not only iiusn out tne water jackets and the radiator, but because of the fact that the motor is milking the water pump will be kept in action and will send a good stream of water all through the system, flush ing it out thoruuguly. After this i8 done, examine the h"W connection from the cylinders to the radiator, to seo that they are iu good condition. It sometimes happens that antifreeze solution will have a bad effect on tho insido of the hose, while from the outside it will be apparently as good as ever. A fairly reliable t'.'st is to press the Hose nrmiy Dciween iu fingers. If it seems good and firm it is probably in good condition. Jf it is weak and flabby it may be sucked together from the force of the water pressure and either partially ct com pletely cut off tho circulation of wa ter. r Somo drivers .stem to think that siiuplo autifrcczo solutions made from water and alcohol do not need to be removed assuming that tho alcohol will evaporate in tunc and the addi tion of water will bo sufficient. Thia is not trim, because while the alcohol will vnpmato, the sediment will re main. As a matter of fact, the cooling system should bo flushed out once or twice a season, whether auti-freezo so lution is used or liot. Proffessive Electric . Service Station Here The Auto Klectfic Service compmy, 171 South ommereinl st'ovt, under the management of H. U. iliurton, is fust making a name for its satisfactory and dependable work. These people are community installing new instru nieiils and machinery to speed up jobs mid insure -reliable work. They han dle tho beat .parts, ccc.nea and equipment that can be obtained. Mr. Barton hH installed a special high grade test instrument, known as Ambu. which quickly determines the condition of the electrical system of ears. He will make these tests free of charge and they often times indicate the beginning of somo trouble which can be quickly corrected and 8ave a hi'i expense Inter. Ambu not only tells the location and kind of trouble but ali.i how tu repair it. far owners tak ing advantage of this opportunity need not lav up their em's or go to the trou iile and ixpense of sending parts back to the makers of the eleetricul equip ment.

An K:.ide Hntlcry neighing 00 I pounds will give one burse power fur approximately .10 minutes. This is j enough to raise its own weight to a .vertical height of nearly six miles. This seems like power enough to ,stnrt the car an uulimiied number of times tint tu i-iank nn automobile engine a buttery must develop more than one horse power for a few seconds or mill ntes, a the oocn-ion demands, and therefore the current that is taken from the battery must be put back in if satisfactory operation is to be i b ta in ed. No warning is given by the battery when it is not being properly treated. It works nn iipc,onplaiuiug!y until its Inst ounce of strength is exhausted. The ennp'aining iB then done by the automobile owner when he finds out how much of n repair bill he has to pay on account of his own neglect and abuse nf his Wit tery. It is to eliminate this abuse to the buttery that we make free inspections of all makes of bat teries at our Kxide service station, as the' tevtg show whether the battery is receiving too much or not enough charge, and also acts as a dink on tie condition of the bahnro pf the electrical apparatus. The attention a battery requires is very small as com-1 pared to the work it does, though very , important and essential to satisfac tory operation. . ! Baker Says Chamberlain's J Speech "Very Intemperate"! Washington, April 3. Characterizing Senator Chamberlain 's speech of criti cism against , the war department at Natches, Miss., last night as "Tery in temperate," Secretary Baker declared today he was willing to have the An.er ican people judge as to tho efficiency of his work. j In an audience with the newspaper correspondents today, tho accrete ry said he couldn't recall having ever roteived from Chamberlain a tinglo helpful sug gestion or one that was designed to be helpful As to tiie letter of Lieutenant Colonel An sell, criticizing the court martial pro cedure in the army and which letter Baker declined to make public, the sec retary refused to comment until the r nnrts of a committee of. the American. Ear association and the inspector gen eral of the army, probing the subject nre completed. ".My attention has been called to a newspaper account of a very Intempcr ute Bpeech by Henntor Cht-mberlain," Baker said. "I have been secretary of war for three years. During that time I have received the most cordial and holpfuf Cooperation from the members of the senate military committee and the committee as a- whole. 1'rom Sena tor Chamberlain, I do not recall that I have ever received a suggestion which was helpful or seemed intended to be helpful. I am perfectly willing to let the people of the country decide be tween what the war department has done in three years and what Senator Cliiiiiiberlain bus said in three years."
