M.-.tor Department TiIIp jtrlndr c in the exhaust valve recently, I noticed that It opened on the downward stroke of the piston and kept open durtnr th up-troke, but did no, clo'", untn thei next down stroke had commenced. Why doesn't It open at bottom center and clo.ie at tcp center? S. N. On flow moving en-c!nt' the -va've will work fin ycu say, but on h!s;h -pM automobile enprlnes there would not b time enough for th" exhaust fra'-e." to escape. The valve opens before th end of the power t-troke, loslnsr bo little power that it ! not notice-able, but allowinsr a r!-nt deal of tlie ira to e-cape Sv :t own exfjin.-don.

On the "larger cars, there are usually four of the latter, while three are generally "uflicient for the .smaller type cars.

Motor Department I have been havintr trouble with the vacuum tank on my car. It ems tnat the irasollne jroes through the suction line n the intake manifold and on through the enplne ard out at the muffler, find a j art of it comes out at the valve tapes. The enirlne Jerks and misses and seem.M to have only about, half iLs power. The spark plugs are all O. K. and make a rood spark, and carbureior L adjusted right and ?pts plen'y of gasoline. Any Information you can t-ive me will be greatly appreciated. L. R. A punctured float or a leaky suction valve In the vacuum tank will cause this. Remove the screws at top and examine these parts care

fully. The float may be emptied out;

and a light drop of solder u?ed to close the leak temporarily. If worn, would suggest Installing a new float a.s soon as possible. Also see that tank Is clean. A little grit or foreign

.Ubstanc under the tank valves wll j

cause vou a lot or trounie.

Well, you're scared when you enter the commodious ''limousine" cobin and seat yourself in one of the roomy upholstered chairs for the flivt time.

But the fear vanlsnes a minute after the plane takes off. After that there's no more "sensation" than riding in a Pullman. Not a.s much, for there are no jolts, no dust, no sense of speed.

AN IMPORTANT FACTOR In the Economic Welfare of South Bend The Odell Rubber Company is proud of the part it has played and is playing in bringing about South Bend s greatest era of prosperity. And that South Bend people appreciate this work, is evidenced by the ever increasing army of Odell Tire U5ers in South Bend and vicinity. "BUILT FIRST TO LAST"

You've never seen my name used, with my consent, to push the sale of any motor car or motoring accessory, although I have turned down many thousands of dollars offered for the use of my name in this way. But the Oldfield Tire is something I have spent the best years of my life developing, testing and making absolutely sure of. I want you, therefore, to credit me with full sincerity when I tell you that here is a tire you can trust the most trustworthy tire built. You know me,

THE body of the Studebaker LightSix Sedan is built in Studebakerplants. So is the chassis. That means complete manufacture by Studebaker. That saves the middlemen's profits. The result is large economies which Studebaker is now offering to the customer in a new low price of $1550 for the Light-Six Sedan. The lowest price for which it has ever sold and the lowest at which a car of such quality was ever offered. The materials entering into the manufacture of the Light-Six Sedan are the finest that money can buy. The workmanship is

unsurpassed. The performance, comfort, economy and all-round satisfaction of the Light-Six, as well as its high resale value, are recognized everywhere. The Light-Six Sedan is handy to drive because of its convenient wheel base. Its lack of vibration and quiet, smooth operation and its special equipment will appeal to you. The Light-Six Sedan has no competitor in the value you get for your money a Six for the price of a Four, yet a superior kind of performance that you won't find in a Four.
