Either one of these two magnificent devices are worth an hour of any man‘s time. Both of them provide you a mental feast on modern engineering that you‘ll fong remember. No matter what the day, no matter where you are on the map, the Hot Spot carburizes«the gas into a "dry " vapor from which all the power is wrung with amazing ease. ® It is throbless, frictionless power, and on a cold day the engine runs warm in an instant or on a hot day runs cold consistently. * a Come see them.

To get the most out of a gallon of gasoâ€" lene all moving parts must work proâ€" perly. This means proper lubricaâ€" tion. ‘The brakes shoulid not drag; each cylinder of the engine should fire properly; the clutch should not slip, and the carburetor should be in proper adjustment. It is not well to Adjust the carburetor unless sure it is at fault. Excessive carbon‘in the cylinder causes a decided loss of powâ€" er, due to back pressure on the piston, and the partial clogging of To get the greatest life out of a tire it should be watched continually for small cuts through the rubber to the fabric. Most tires will be found after a short service to have from two to a dozem such cuts. These will allow sand to work in and loogen the rubber and then moisture gets in and rots the fabric. ‘There are preparaâ€" tions with which these cuts may be healed in a few minutes; serious cuts, especially where the rubber is loosâ€" ened from the fabric, should be taken at once to the vulcanizer. "While oil and grease of good qualâ€" ity cost momey, their proper use will save many times their price in reâ€" placement of parts. On the other hand, a waste of lubricant makes unâ€" necessary expense. Especially with a new car, oil and grease should be watched carefully until the bearings have time to work in. That is the time when expense for replacement of bearings is most likeyl. the ‘ro@d. There_should E e a slight toe in for mechanical but if this is allowed‘to go the powâ€" er limit it costs money. KITCHENER Quality First A convenient homeâ€"made mud scrapâ€" er may be made by cutting a shallow oval in the running board before the door. Across the outer edge of this oval a piece of bar steel is screwed, corresponding to the thickness of the running board. It is very simple to scrape mud from the shoes and _ dirt so removed falls thru the oval cutout To insure each cylinder getting its proper power without waste, the enâ€" f.. should be driven with the spark ever advanced as far as possible wi causing back pressure.

"It is not safe to leave these things to the chauffeur and the garage man. The owner should learn how himself and see that everything about his car is adjusted right and he ought to know how to keep them in order. If he gets this knowledge inside his thinking machine he will find that his propelling machine will. work better and that he will not only have more use and pleasure out of it, but he will save a very appreciable part of the cost of upkeep." in the board MUD SCRAPER. The F. W. D. is an exceptionally well designed truck. It has many adâ€" vantages from the standpoint of econâ€" omy, ease of handling, loading capaciâ€" ty, and adaptability. The credit for securing this big facâ€" tory for Kitchener is due to Mr. Henry Nyberg, who came to Kitchener in 1913 and started the Canadian Regal motor factory in the East End. _ He was recently successaful in inducing the company to locate here. ‘‘Well, what you all think _ of _ it now ?" inquired one. * "Shure do look good," the other reâ€" plied. ‘"President Wilson shure did stop them Huns." â€" ‘Two negroes met at a peace celeâ€" bration on the day following the signâ€" ing of the armistice. It was in a Colâ€" orado town. and the State . had just gone Republican a few days before. The latest industry to locate in this thriving city is the Four Wheel Drive Auto Company of Clintonvilic, Wis., which concern purposes establishing a Canadian factory here for the manâ€" ufacture of the widely known F. W. D trucks. About twenty acres of land are being reserved in the East End of the city, where it is proposed to exâ€" pend about $200,000 in the erection of a factory, which will furnish employâ€" ment to 250 skilled mechanics at the outset...The building of a Canadian factory is due to the enormous de mand for F. W. D. trucks. €nabling the company to give users proper serâ€" vice at all times.

He is now in partner ship with Mr. Sehi. He has had much practical experience. Mr. Sehl conducted the business for eight years previous to Mr. Hepplet taking over the garage. He recently entered into partnership with _ Mr. Heppler. He is also an expert me chanic. Measrs. Heppler and Sehl, who opâ€" erate the Waterloo Garage, are both experienced _ mechanics â€" and â€" with excellent equipment for giving expert attention to car troubles are able to give motorists splendid service. The entire satisfaction that is being given is evidenced in the expansion of the business, which has grown to such an extent that the firm intends erecting an addition at the rear of their store, where will be established an upâ€"todate seryice station, and enâ€" able them to give the motorist still better service. A complete line of rental batteries for every make of car is kept on hand. The firm‘s motto is ‘"Through Service We Grow," and the best evidence of the character of the service they are giving is to be seen in their rapidly growing business. Messrs. Reinhart and Doerr, who about a year ago took over the busiâ€" ness of Rank & Ferrier, glectricians, 192 King street west, off@r excellent facilities to the motorist in connecâ€" tion with the Willard Battery Service Station, which they conduct. Mr. L. Brunk has had charge of this departâ€" ment of the business for the past five years, and all batteries brought in reâ€" ceive his expert attention. The City Garage of which R. Kleinâ€" schmidt is the manager, is one of the best equipped in Kitchener, and is in a position to handle any make of car promptly and satisfactorily, attention being given solely to ‘repairing and overhauling cars.

Mr. William Forwell, 98 Charles St., Kitchener, became the distributor for Waterloo County of the well known Reo imotor cars and trucks about a year ago. Do not fail to see his exâ€" hibit at the automobile show, as he will have on display a full line of cars and trucks. Mr. Archie Lockbart states that they have had a great number of enquiries for their cars and have made numerâ€" ous sales, the prospects for this year are nfin excellent. Cars will, however, he states, be scarce, as many automobile concerss, during the past f@W years, devoted their plants largely to war work, and consequently the production of cars has not kept pace with the demand, _ The company is one of the exhibtâ€" tors at the Motor Show, where the various models they sell may be seen.
