BLOWOUTS

The son of a Hammoiid sportsmar. v as observed Ashing in a puddle on Kenwood avenue following a shower. A piiKserby asked the little fellow if (hry were biting. He gave out tho i'.illowins information: ""I had a sturt on interested a w hile afro, but I guests h- stopped to scratch his tail.'' A hot argument developed a day or po ago in a garage on South Hohman street. The question was: "Will tTiere ! any automobiles in heaven?" Thr ,...P".iv ide was getting all the root-

iui? until one of the opponents let the i,.lowincr out of his gas bag: "There ,

be nothing but Fords there they are the only birds that can climb on high." Subscriber writes asking the medical department if vibrators are good for rheumatism. Doctor says yes, but don't mor.key with the vibrator. Take a trip over South Hohman. from Standard avenue to the river, and if it doesn't I. eat any vibrator you ever say.e will give you a whole basket full of 'em. They are still rarking cows at the south end of Calumet avenue. The future generations will r.uild roads that need no upkeep, rather than build poor roads that necessitate a force of men and materials to keep them in repair. The Marvel Tire Saving Station now have their tires on the machines of a well known taxi firm. One of Hammond's, most efficient automobilists Is Mrs. Koy Fudge. It is reported that she can take a machine apart, put it together again without any "leavings." But her strongest 1 o'nt is salesmanship, and the boys around the place say she has it over the "boss" when it comes to talking Due points.

Servtoe. sivj the Prestolitrt people are

pulling out a d.n,!y battery for the money. "This battery will stand up and give the sserioe. flairs have traoreased wonderfully since the new battery and its price were announced." "The Automatic Steam Carburetor." say Jos. Kussmaul, "has absolutely made good. Thre has been nothing but continual prnit; from those who have had the Automatic installed." The cost of building good roads is far less than the depreciation to automobiles caused by Jiad roads. Good drinking wnter can be secured at a well in the Forest Preserve, alongside the cinder road, lending from State Line street. Take first road south of Forest Park addition and go about a half mile west. Paul Moorhead, president of the Moorhead Oil Company has an Institution any state might well be proud of. It is one of the most effufnt independent oil companies in the Pjiited States. They do a jonning Dusiness, as well as distributing locally, and now ship" to all parts of the country. Mr. Moorhead was a successful building contractor before his entry into the oil business. Earl Cole. his assistant, known to every garage man in the region, has also been a faithful and tireless worker with Mr. Moorhead In this big enterprise. "Spotlights" are prohibited in Massachusetts. Philadelphia is called the "City of Dented Fenders." More garages than homes were built in the United States last year.

There are over 100 recognized automobile schools in tho Unltod StateS. There is no case on record of an automobile havins been struck by lightning.

Bed. white, and bhie Is the color combination for license rdates in California in 1922. Germany now has more than 100 automobile factories, employing 50,000 skilled workmen. Approximately one-tenth of the entire population of the United States are owners of automobiles. Women are found to operate rassenger automobiles and motor trucks with as much care and accuracy as men. And now the Studebaker Light Six has taken a tumble and Mr. P. J. Bauwens of the local Studebaker agency

is right in his glory. "Yes indeed." says Mr. Bauwens, "this is a Studebaker year all right. Looks as if we will have to get some more of the light sixes right away." Fete Schoon, Reo salesman has a Hup

he took in on a trade and says it's a ,

classy looking buggy. It Is In the pink of condition. She was born In 1911, and although slightly "Tinkled, has nev er yet resorted to Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compoifnd. It is one of those young old ladles and can. haul eight people without a screech. It is now on display in the Reo salesroom. Say Pete, blow up that front tire before the spectators get there. The Toren Auto Sales Co. is selling out the discontinued lines of Oldsmobile cars that It has on hand to make room for the new model 65-75 Haynes that will arrive before long. Mr. Toren

A re-w carburetor which cuts down gasoline consumptipn of any motor and reduces- gasoline bills from one-third to one-half is the proud achievement of the Air-Friction Carburetor Co.. 615 Madison St., Dayton. O. This remarkable invention not only increases the power of all motors from 30 to 50 per cent, but enables every one to run slow on high gear. It also makes It easy to start a Ford or any other car in the coldest weather. You can use the very cheapest grade of gasoline or half gasoline and half kerosene and still get more power and more mileage than you now get from the highest test gaSCline. Many Ford owners say they now get as high as 45 to 50 miles to a gallon of gasoline. So sure are the manufacturers of the immense saving-their new carburetor will make that they offer to send it on 30 days' trfal to every car owner. As It can be put on or taken off in a few minutes by anyone, all readers of this paper who want to try it should send their name, address and make of car to the manufacturers at once. They also want local agents, to whom they offer exceptionally large profits. "Write them today. adv.
