These are matters for personal decision by the owner, but much of the Information which follows, while It la eeneral in nature, can be selected
by the owner as applying to his parti c-
ular car. . If the car is taken to a service station it is given expert scrutiny. A written Indictment, when handed to the service manager by the tester, brings a verdict In dollars and cents, and "In about ten days." The service station .will do anything asked of it, everything there is to be done to make the vehicle as good as mechan
ical skill can make it. Or it will take the owner's suggestions, check them over, then do what it things ought to be done. After the owner studies the methods of the service station he begins to realize there is only one way to do things properly and only one way to get the car in the best condition. That is to do all there Is to be done, tighten, oil, repair, tune, etc., Instead of doing only those things which actually are necessary to keep the car from falling to pieces on the road. A service manager dislikes to have a car come in for work and see It go out. with a dozen minor things wrong which he knows will give trouble later on in the season, just because the owner does not desire to spent the money right away, or more likely does not want to give up the use of the car for a long enough period to have is properly overhauled. Whichever course is followed, Bee to it that before the season's work is begun all necessary repairs are attended to.
COTTIN IS GIVEN
DEATH SENTENCE
PARI3, March 15 Emille Cottin. the anarchist who recently made an attempt against the life of Premier Georges Clemenceau, Friday was sentenced to death by the Court-martial which was trying him. The verdict of the Court-martial was unanimous. Cottin first conceived the idea of shooting the Premier in May, 1918. according to an official record read at the court-martial. In May, 1918, the employes of aviation factories were on strike. Cottin practiced shooting after that, it wa3 said. When the court-martal opened the clerk read the report describing the attack on the premier. The report showed that Cottin fired twice without moving, and then five times while running behind the automobile, to which he was so close that one witness believed he had jumped on the rear of the car. It was shown that Cottin aimed at the seat in which Premier Clemenceau was sitting.

COLE AERO-EIGHT SOLD IN MANY MODELS
"Firmly intrenched In the open car field as the creator of what are definitely established as the post-war fashions in motor cars, the Cole Motor Car company has extended its engineering genious into the inclosed car field and is offering some new creations in models of this type that are destined to meet the same popular approval that welcomed the open cars," said F. I. Stafford of the Stafford Auto company. The originators of the aerotype automobile have adapted the striking lines and marked advantages of this type of open car to their inclosed models and have added numerous accessories and refinements in their allseason offerings of 1919 that are both original and distinctive. The aeroeight towncar, toursedan, and tourcoupe are exclusive Cole creations.
They reflect the latest practice in automoble designing. The owncar, with its sharp aerolines and tasteful fitting is an imposing equipage that has met with instant favor in all of the metropolitan centers. It was built in answer to an insistent demand for this type of car on the noted aero-eight chasis. The present Cole aero-eight toursedan is the outgrowth of the original four-door toursedan, which the Cole company introduced some two years ago. From the standpoint of comfort and accessibility it represents the last word in sedan and dlimousine designing. Its beauty of lines rivals anything that the Cole company has ever produced in the way of all-season cars. It is furnished with and without a dividing glass partitition between the front and rear compartments, so that it may be converted from a sedan to a limousine almost instantly. One distinctive feature of the aeroeight toursedan is the permanence of its convertibility features. All pillars remain solidly in place, but all upper glas3 panels drop into the body structure and are equipped with regulators. Likewise the glass section in the dividing partition is equipped with a regulator and drops down into the back of the front seat, entirely out of sight. Perhaps the most individual creations of the all-season line presented by Cole this year is the four-passenger Cole aero-eight tourcoupe. Having made a reputation for itself as the builders of exclusive chummy types of automobiles, the Cole company has carried its ability to the peak in designing the tourcoupe. In design it is absolutely original. It is not duplicated enywhere in the automobile field tady. Its lines are refreshingly new, and its comforts and refinements add a new tone to the semi-sport type, of which it is the latest exponent.

Loyal troops manning machine gun on Berlin balcony. The many balconies along the main thoroughfares of Berlin, where once the common people stood to gaze in awe at the crowned heads, now boast machine guns manned in the name of democracy. Loyal Ebert troops, with these guns, are prepared to end suddenly any revolt started by SDartacans or conspirators who have visions of bringing the kaiser back.
CHINESE AT SHOW.
Chinese, as a rule, are not seen at auto shows, but this year in Los Angeles the oriental idea caught on, and the number of browned visitors was one of the unique and surprising developments of the show. Although there were no trucks exhibited at the show, every Chinese who entered the gates immediately inquired for the trucks. Due to the interest the show stimulated in the Chinese colony, several laundries and a great many Chinese produce concerns purchased lightweight trucks.. t The Maxwell truck enjoys unusual fovor with these people and a number of cross-country champions were sold during show week.
UTILITY FROCK OF FIGURED FOULARr
TWO TIRE MISTAKES.
A mistake often made by car owners is to continue using rims that have become badly dented or even slightly bent. This causes rim cutting, which means the end of the casing's usefulness. Another error is to neglect to keep the valve stem and stay bolts tight. When this is not done water will get into the casing on wet roads or oven when the car is washed.
For general wear foulard is unexcelled. It is cool and may always be made up in a number of smart styles. This frock pictured is fashioned of black and white figured foulard trimmed with black taffeta. The collar and cuffs are of sheer white organdie..

HEN you were a kid, was the value of thrift impressed
upon you by the story of the boy seeking a job. who
won the good-will of his prospective employer by pick
ing up a pin? Did it ever occur to you as you walk the streets that lots of people have their eyes fixed upon the sidewalk to discover a nickel that some one may have dropped, and thereby miss the big dollar they might earn? Are there not some publishers and advertisers of the same calibre as the frugal employer and of the sidewalk searchers we have described? They are the kind that watch the till, not that which fills the till "More and Better Business." The predominant figure before us to-day is VICTORY, with her right arm reaching toward the stars. That is the attitude every publisher and every advertising man should jump into to-day. "More and Better Business" should be their slogan. Yelled from the housetops, if you please, but better still shown in their policies and performances. Now that a broader, more fertile field is open to all business all over the world, let all advertising interests unite to make the most and get the most out of the cheapest and most effective element in salesmanship ADVERTISING. Make every phase of advertising as simple, forceful, and lucid as possible. Above all, let us inspire an intense spirit of co-operation. CILILM AEllSTOdDRKG.
