~ - Chevrolét News | How the motorist can save on oil expense and repair bills through proper attention to the oil filter on his car was stressed in a statement released by O. . Hunt chief engineer of the Chevrolet Motor Company. "-His announcement followed experiments conducted by research engineers of the AC Spark Plug Company makers of Chevrolet oil filters showing that a full pint of abrasive matter accumulated in the filter after every 10,000 miles oof driving. } This residue possessed such high abrasive qualities that it could have been used effectively for sharpening knives or grinding valvess.

“If thiis abrasive matter had not been trapped in the oil filter,” Mr. Hunt said, “it would havd*done severe damage to cylinders pistons and other ‘internal working parts of the engine, Excessive repair bills might have been the result. 4 s . “If this abrasive mattér had not Chevrolet cars are eguipped removes rthese impurities and allows only clean ooil to reach the engine. This means prolonged life for the engine and fewer oil changes. “After the filter has seen 10,000 miles of service however the filtering unit becomes clogged with grit and other foreign matter taken from the oil, and ceases to function properiy. The filtration unit then should be replaced. This may be done at any authorized Chevrolet service station at nominal cost representing but a small fraction of the savdig in oil bills alone. “The oil filter is cne of many features contributing to Chevrolet’s long life and cconomy* of operation.”’

Mr. Wood Files Complaint - - While at Goshen a few days ago I calied on my venerable cousin, Geo. W. Kinnison of The Daily News-Times for a chat during which the conversation turned to my age, freely givem in cautious = confidence, when, 110 and behold, in the following issue of his paper, he wilifully and without provacation, gave the whole thing away to the public. What an abuse of friendly confidence! George ought to be ashamed of himself for I never told how old he is, well, it does seem one can’t trust anybody now-a-days, anyhow. = | As for my eyes, I came down there to have them weakened instead of strengthened for one can see too much round-about these days. | (Goshen News-Times, please note) : F.P.

to every owner of a Model T Ford ON MAY 25, 1927, when Henry Ford first announced his - plans for making a new car, he announced also that he would continue to make parts for the Model T Ford. He said: - “The Model T Ford car:was a pioneer. It blazed the way for the motor industry and started the movement for good roads everywhere. It broke down the barriers of distance in rural sections, brought people in these sections closer together, and placed education within the reach of everyone. We are still proud of the Model T Ford. If we were not, we would not have continued to make it so long.” For twenty years, the Model T Ford led the automobile - industry and it still serves more people than any other automobile. Over one-third of all the automobiles in use today are Model T Fords — an indication of the sturdy worth of the car and its value to people in all walks of life the world over. \ The Ford Motor Company will continue to make replacement parts for these cars *“‘until the last Model T is off the road.” That is a part of Ford service. That is what Henry Ford meant when he said: “*We believe that when a man buys one of our cars we should keep it running for him as long as we can and at the lowest up-keep cost.” Because of this policy a considerable part of the Ford manufacturing plants is given over to the making of parts for the Model T Ford. These replacement parts are made of the same material and in the same way as those from which your car was originally assembled. ; o - Make it a point, therefore, to see the nearest Ford dealer and have him look over your Model T Ford. You may find that a very small expenditure will enable you to get thou- . sands of miles of additional service, and at the same time protect the monegy you have invested in your car, e FORD MOTOR COMPANY " Detroit, Michigan
