YOUR automobile is some thing like a miniature city. There is an electric light and power system, a water sys tem, a fuel system. In the new Ford, you will find each of these systems of the latest design and best materials. Every part has been made to serve you f aith- fully and well at a minimum of trouble and expense. Take, for example, the generator—one of the most important parts of the elec trical system which supplies the current for lighting and for engine ignition. In the new Ford, the gen erator is of the power-house type and is distinctive in many'features. It has been specially designed to pre vent most forms of trouble. Oiling is necessary only once a year. About the only thing yon need do is to have the charging rate changed as the seasons change. Closely allied to the elec trical system is the ignition system. It, too, is of new mechanical design in the new Ford. There is but one high tension cable and that connects the coil with the distributor. Even cables from the distributor to the spark plug 8 have bpeip''*!i lkl i 1>a * e <l* Special care has also been taken to make the dio- tributor water-proof, thus preventing short circuits from rain, etc. The entire electrical and ignition systems of the new Ford arc so simple in design and so carefully made that they will give you surpris ingly little trouble. Yet that doesn’t mean they should be neglected. Certain little attentions are needed from time to time. The storage battery should be given water and the connections kept clean. The generator charging rate should be changed as indi cated. Spark plugs should be cleaned at regular inter vals. Distributor points should also be kept'dean and the distributor cam given a light film of vaseline every 2900 miles. These are just little things, but they mean a great deal to your car. You can have them looked after at very small cost by the Ford dealer when you take the car in for oiling and greasing. A thorough checking-up at regular intervals will lengthen the life of your car and give you many thou sands of miles of carefree, economical motoring.

What does it mean to you to use an oil that holds its body and stands off friction as does this specially processed oilier oil that’s now outselling any other? / iCkidarS V -iae & MOTOR OIL “Standard” Greases, Transmission Oil and Gear Compound are made with the same care as “Standard” motor fuels and motor oils. LESS CYLINDER WEAR WITH “STANDARD” MOTOR OIL / Tlte motor of a well- known lix sedan, after beinte driven 26,760 milea with “Standard” Motor Oil a* the only lubri cant, was dismantled and cylinders care fully measured for wear with precision instruments. The average wear of each of the sis cylinders was a fraction under *t ten-thousandths of an inch. ^ When other oils are used the cylinder wear of. the average well-cared-fer car is over 30 ten-thousandths of an inch in 20,000 miles. Several times as great as in the sedan in which “Standard” Motor Oil was used. The practical advantage to you of die greater oiliness of “Standard” Motor Oil is easily apparent. Less wear means a bet ter, smoother running motor, fewer re pair hills and greater satisfaction with your car. Yet “Standard” | costs only a quarter a quaft. Hose much do you spend for '5 gasoline? Hose much for tires? When did your battery last have water? The “■Standard?' Motor Record vfll tell you. .
