GET INSPECTION HABIT Give ' Station Opportunity to Catc Trouble Early. "If car owners generally would gc the battery inspection habit, if they' 0 give the service station man the 01 portunity to catch possible batter troubles in the primary stage, ther would be fewer storage batteries i early graves," says Mr. Pattersoi manager of City Garage service ste P LiUIl. "We have lots of people comm around to the Service Station ever two weeks for such little, yet impori ant, attentions as distilled wate: Sometimes they don't even have th same make of storage battery i their car as we handle, but that doe: n't make them any the less welcom j Bailey Milil p GREENV ft Faculty of Twenty [ Instructors?

How much accom, modation is offered, and how exten. sively does the motorist take advanI tage of it? ; Service is intangible, and in its s best sense, includes innumerable dei tails as well as actual measurable - work. However, a record kept by ; the Quick Tire Service, Inc., North Boulevard at Highland avenue, distributors .of United States tires of a , tangible feature indicates fto what [ proportions service is carried. The , record covers free road service, of [. which this company is the originat tor. During 1920 the firm's eight serv' ice cars made a mileage of 40,687, Ij answering 12,712 calls from motorI] ists requiring assistance at their J irages or on the road. For the ] first five months ot this year, with ] the heaviest motoring season still j to come, the total mileage has been ] 22,930, answering 7,163 service calls, j On an average of 39 times a day j the little red cars are' responding J to the mortorists' requests. The averJ age length of the runs is 3.2 miles, j In addition to the road service, j this company keeps service men to J wait on the customers at the curb, and maintains air connections. These nguree. Indicate that at last, far aa United States Tires are concerned, service is a substantial reality.?Atlanta Georgian. GIVES PROPER METHOD FOR PARKING CARS | How do you park your car? I Though parking ordinances in cities I differ they all require driving up to ! a curb of some kind. Right here j many tire injuries are born. The j motorist driving up at the proper j angle unconsciously depends in a 1 measure upon the curb stone to stop I his car. Naturally the impact flatI tens and strains the tire carcass.. In driving parallel to the curb the I tire side walls are ordinarily rasped l against the stone. The edges of I the tread suffer, too. Of course the 1 poorly inflated tire' suffers the most as the resiliencp of proper inflation) is lacking. It is in this way, say Miller tire men,, that rim flanges are bent, j Where the motorist drives almost | head on against the curb, the carcass1 is bruised either near the middle ofj the tread or close up to the rim. i Where the parking angle is sharper the bruise is further to the side. The resultant roughened place on the inside of the carcass constantly chafes the tube. Such a condition is responsible for many a tube going flat without apparent reason. A careful driver coasts to a stop, first throttling down his engine and applying his brakes gently. It 'is not necessary to drag the wheels or bump the curb. The skillful driver is repaid in lessened depre-J ciation and repair. The more reckless owner, however, can take com-i fort in the fact that such tire injuries are in almost every case reparable if taken in time.?The Georgian. Mrs. John E. Efird Dead. Polkton, N. C., July 28.?Mrs. John E. Efird, mother of the three Efird brothers, who operate a chain of department stores in North and South Carolina, died at her home seven miles from here late yesterday afternoon. She is survived by her husband and ten children. Allies Not Approached ; London, July 28.?The report that I the Turks have approached the al; lies with the purpose of opening ne; jotiations for cessation of the hostilities between Turks and the Greeks is unfounded, according to information received in official circles here. This information substantiates the fact fcat there have been Greek victories in Asia Minor but it minimizes the moral effect they have had upon the Turks. I j MAKE YOUR OLD CAR LIKE NEW. We build Tops, Seat Covert and all kind of upholstering. Made out of good material and guar* antee to give good service. f rices reasonable. H. L. PAGE, Phone 227 Greenwood, S. C. Hipp Bros. Garage. Knowledge For Car Owners. Atlanta Georgian. Never use gasoline to clean leathe: upholstery in a car. Before starting on a long trip make sure the engine base is tight. When wooden wheels develop i squeak, soak them in water or oil. Tappets that are too tight or toi loose will cause misfiring-of the en gine. The porcelain of a spark plug ma; be made almost as clean as new b; soaking in carbon disulphide. The thread of a tire will wea evenly if the tire is occasionlly re moved and put on so that it revolve in the opposite direction. Never carry in the pockets shar tools like screwdrivers. In the even of a jar or a spill they are likely t prove dangerous. In buying new tires, place the tw old ones on the front wheels, for tfo wheels at the back have to bear mor< weight than the others. Make a small mirror part of th equipment of your car. Then if an; cinders or dust particles get in you eye when riding alone, you ma; easily remove them. ? When dirt becomes so firmly in trenched in the brake lining that i can not be removed with kerosen use a little rosin mixed with casto ! oil.. A hissing noise emitting from th engine while it is in motion, indi cates leaking compression in one o the cylinders. Rusty tools '/an be cleaned b; using on them a mixture of one quarter ounce of camphor and sonn graphite with a half pound of goo< leaf lard melted. j South? Is Froi TO Asheville, N.
