CONSERVATION
Thrift, Economy and Patriot

Make Motorist Careful
In these war times, conservation
of the nation's resolurces Is the or

patriotism should combine to make
the motor car owner mindful of
many things that knows he should
practice, but which he has been
habitually neglecting. The necessity
of conserving gasoline needs but a

however, to call the attention of the
car owner to the fact that records
are now being kept by the United

SATURDAY EVENING,
States Fuel Administration, of the
needs of the Allies. With the thou
sands of motortrucks that have been
bought and are now coming forward
in fleets; and the thousands of aero
planes now in course of delivery, the
needs of the Allies will increase tre
mendously. It is imperative for the
individual owner, if he is to get gas
oline in the future'at all, to be ever
mindful of extravagant use and.pos-
Hiblo waste and to uso every effort
to save in the essential operation of
the commercial vehicle; whilst for
the pasenger car, its use should be
confined to a reasonable, thrifty en
joyment if used in any way that
could be. classed as nonessential.
Practice conservation as an act of
pure patriotism, that the supply of
gasoline and oils may meet all de
mands.
Coming now to tires; the govern
ment demand for cotton ducks has
made It necessary for the mills to Set
aside a large portion of their equip
ment for government needs, and
there is now a rumor of threatened
commandeering of the cotton sup
ply. The quantity of cotton and cot
ton fabrics suitable for tire construc-
tion hVs been heavily curtailed
which has already resulted in a de
creased production of tires and high
er prices. The demand of the gov
ernment for a large part of the pro
duction of pneumatic tires for. am
bulance and other fast service great
ly reduces the supply of tires for
seneral use. it is. extremely prob
able that still higher prices will ob
tain, as stocks are bound to suffer
rapid depletion under normal de
mand. the wise, thrifty,
economical and patriotic owner
should be prompted to do all the
things necessary to get the utmost in
mileage from tire equipment To
do so, carry proper air pressure at
all times, keep the pressure up by
constant attention, daily gauging is
not too often. This watchfulness Will
prevent many blowouts, by prevent
ing stone bruising. It is a fact that
a hard tire will rise and ride over
an obstruction while & soft tire may
be indented and the rupture of a
single thread will spread until a
blowout will occur. Often the owner
is in doubt as to the cause, be
cause the injury was not severe
enough to cause the blowout when
originally received. Soft tires waste
gasoline and cause abnormal wear
on the treads, as a greater portion
of the tread is on the ground and
more power is necessary to propel
the car. Soft tires weaken the side
walls as the tire assumes an ab
normal shape and often cause the
tread to loosen from the carcass,
and many authorities hold to the
opinion that the tread on a soft tire
cuts from contact with small stones
more readily than does the hard,
properly-inflated tire. If a tire is
always run under proper inflation
presure, and made of standard ma
terials, it is reasonable to presume
that if can be economically given a
new tread; Just as a shoe may be
half soled. Why waste a valuable
cotton carcass when it can be con
served, retreaded, and thus do dou
ble service and practically cut down
tire cost by twenty-five per cent. In
Rhops properly equipped and with
skilled operators, a retread of the
highest class approximates but one
half the cost of a new tire. But as
retreading is ain to manufacturing
the owner should exercise discretion
in selecting the shop to which he en
trusts his now valuable tire carcas.
In the use of the tire of "cord" con
struction with its higher investment
cost, now rapidly coming into gen
eral use, • retreading is especially
economical and in line with thrifty,
judicious conservation.
There is prevalent an alarming
disregard as-to inner tube cost. The
inner tube is the burden bearer ot
the car and load in pneumatic tired
equipment. The owner talks of and
buys "tires;" the manufacturer more
frequently calls them "castings;"
while our foreign users more com
monly call them "envelopes." This
Quotation is used to impress on you
the fact that you really ride on the
air in the inner tube, thu3 one can
see al! the more reason for proper
inflation so as to avoid tire trou
bles previously referred to as -.veil ns
'he annoying tube "pinoV Sparc
tubes should be carried in proper
bags or cases to prevent oil gctlint,
on them and to prevent possible
chafing on the folded edges whicti
greatly weakens the tube in spots
In changing tubes do not neglect a
proper application of mica or soap
stone to allow the tube to properly
.'eat itself inside the tire as i.; is
inflated. Always use the floating
strip to keep the tube from conta?:
with the steel rim of the wheel and
to prevent forcing the tube under
the bead of the tire and a conse
quent annoying "pinch." Tubes are
more often repaired than tires. The
puncture demands attention In the
tube, while it is often neglected or
unnecessary in the tire. If you are
not an expert on rubber, do not dis
card a tube on age alone. Submit
it to the inspection of a competent
specialist and be guided by his opin
ion, and get the most you can from
it. Keep the thought of conservation
uppermost in your everyday use of
your car. whether it be fuel, tires or
general wear and tear of the car as
a who!** "A stitch in time saves
nine" as the old saying goes, and
thrifty conservation in all the com

play an important part in the elmi
nation of the fiun.
Thieves Enter Three Shops
and Get Much Booty
Waynesboro, Pa., June 7.—Rob
bers early this morning entered three
business places of town and made
away with a considerable amount of
booty. The places entered are the
jewelry stores of H. J. Bare, J. R.
Miller and the store of B. Davis.
From the Bare store the yeggnien
took watch cases to the value of $175
and from the Miller store cases valu
ed at $75. Three pairs of shoes were
taken from the Davis store. It is
the belief that the local authorities
that these robberies were commit
ted by a band of thieves and all were
executed simultaneously a/* only one
report of crashing a plate glass win
dow was heard.
A little more than a week ago the
.store of W. L. Maurer at Blue Ridge
Summit was robbed and which fur
ther convinces the authorities hero
that the work is of a group of rob
bers.

'BIG' MEN JUDGES
IN PACKARD TEST
Will Decide Winner Big
Efficiency Contest Started
on the Ist of June
Three men nationally known for
interest they have takpn in bringing
about greater efficiency in transpor
tation will be the judges of the
Packarfi Motor Car Company's $5,000
Truck Efficiency Test. They are Wal
demar Kaempofert, automobile editor
of Popular Science Monthly and con
tributor to the automobile section of
McClure's; H. W. Slauson, I. B„ motor
editor of Leslie's, and Harold P. Gould,
editor-in-chief of 100 Per Cent. Ef
ficiency.
Each of these men have been writ
ing for years on getting greater re
sults from motor trucks, both from
the standpoint of lower operating
costs and the carrying of bigger
loads. That they have wielded a pow
erful influence for better hauling at
lower costs v* generally recognized.
In speaking of the test which began
June 1 and ends August 31. B. B. Har
rington, manager of the Packard Har
risburg branch, states "its purpose is
to demonstrate the motor truck's
ability to relieve the railroads of
short-haul traffic, to clear the railroad
terminals of freight congestion—in
short to 'help save a freight car for
Uncle Sam.' The test is undertaken
in co-operation with the highways
Transport Committee of the Council
of National Defense.
"Immediately at the close of the
test the judges will meet. From the
Standard Truck Cost Systems on
which the perrformances of the trucks
in the test have been tabulated, they
will make their decisions. They will
announce the names of the owners
who win the three SI,OOO awards and
the names of the drivers who win the
SSOO, SIOO and $75 awards in each of
the three classes, as well as Packard
Philadelphia awards to local drivers
of SIOO, SSO and $25 in each of the
three classes."
P. H. Keboch Takes Over
Retail Accessory Business
During the past week one of the.
largest retail automobile accossory
businesses of this city changed hands,
P. H. Keboch taking over the retail
business of the Front-Market Motor
Supply Co. Ever since its birth, a few
years ago, at the corner of Front and
Market streets, this firm has been the
Vading power in this vicinity for all
kinds of automobile accessories and
•mrts. The volume of business in-
Teased with leaps and bounds, until
•t was found desirable to seek new
luarters with a larger floor space.
This was accomplished by uniting
'wo large store rooms just a few doors
up Market street, which is the pres
nt location of this large firm. After
'■uilding up a successful retail busi
ness. the Front-Market Motor Supply
Co. branched off into the wholesale
end of automobile accessories and
have builded a firm foundation for
this line of endeavor, following out
the same ideas as in the retail end,
•lamely, courteous service and the de
sire to please the motoring public.
Both the retail and wholesale depart
ments were worked from this location,
with the wholesale \jork keeping the
management busy. It was finally de
cided that in order to give the proper
amount of attention to the one or the
other, one branch had to be dropped,
and therefore the selling out of the
retail line to Mr. Keboch.
From now on only wholesale ac
cessories will be sld by the Front-
Market Motor Supply Co. at 109 Mar
ket street.
Mr. Keboch is a well-known figure
in the automobile business, being the
district sales manager of the Jackson
•Automobile Co., of Jacksdn, Mich.
He announces that he will continue
the sale of all kinds of automobile
accessories at 111 Market street, and
will also move the Jackson sales
rooms to this location.

Former Telegraph Man
Wounded and Gassed;
Happy to Be in War
News reaches Harrisburg that
Robert E. Kling, formerly an em
ploye in the composing room of the
Harrisburg Telegraph, has been
wounded by shrapnel in France, has
recovered and during his convales
cence is helping to publish a French
village newspaper for the depot
division, he boing now a corporal of
the headquarters troop.
Corporal Kling, writing to Ed
ward Bierbower, of the Telegraph,
says that "a shrapnel wound and
mustard gas put me down in a base
hospital for quite a stay and tempo
rary light duty for a time as the re
sult. X long for the time when I
shall be among the boys of my old
company and do my real bit once
more.
__ "This sure is a great game,"
Kling writes, "and it takes a steady
hand to play it. There were times
when I did not value my life very
highly, but I would not have taken
John D.'s money for ray place in it."
Oil Preparation Protects
Motor Cars on Driveways
During the automobile shows
throughout the country, now drawing
to a close, many visitors who ad
mired the spick-and-spun beauty of
the Paige Larchmont and other mem
bers of the Paige family were much
surprised to learn that—ln many in
stances—the cars had been driven
from the factory to their show des
tination. Not a mark or blemish of
the minutest kind marred the origi
nal beauty of the cars, which had
been driven through slush and mud
hundreds of miles over the worst pos
sible roads. The wondering visitors
were informed that the secret of the
matter "was very simple, merely the
application of a well-known product
—white paraffin oil.
As the Paige, like many of the
other big factories, has been doing
its utmost to help the Government
relieve the freight congestion by de
veloping the driveaway to its utmost
possibilities, the employment of some
means of protecting the glossy new
bodies of the cars was inevitable.
White paraffin oil serves this pur
pose admirably. Purchased at any
drug store, a gallon of it when ap
plied with a cloth covers the body
of any car. If, however, it is sprayed
on—as is done at the factories be
fore a driveaway—a gallon will be
sufficient for four cars.
The spray of white paraffin oil
forms a protecting film over the
body of the car and catches the mud
and dirt of all kinds which can no
longer be absorbed by the body fin
ish. When the car reaches its des
tination a thorough washing is suf
ficient to remove all signs of travel,
the oil causing the dirt to scale off.
A thorough cleansing with warm
water and a good car soap, a cold
douche and a rubdown with a pol
ishing chamois leave the body of the
car as fresh and unscathed as when
it left the hands of Its makers.
The success of this treatment has
done much to enthuse dealers over
the drive-away idea and they are
now flocking to the factories and
driving their cars away by the hun
dreds.
Typist Turns Wooer
Over to Police. Court
London. —At Westminster police
court Charles Edward Ross, 37, de
scribed as an engineer, was charged
with stealing jewelry. It was stated
that the prisoner was given into cus
tody at Hyde Park by Ethel Grant,
a typist, of Beaufort street. Chelsea
whom he had been courting. A dia
mond ring and a gold pendant dis
appeared from her flat, which tho
prisoner admitted having pawned.
Mrs. Jessie Harris, of Fifth street,
Soho, wife of a wool merchant, de
posed that the prisoner was sup
posed to be engaged to her daughter,
and was until recently a frequent
visitor at her house. She missed
jewelry valued at £7O from a locked
attache case.
A detective officer said that the
prisoner had given information as to
the disposal of the jewelry and most
of it had been recovered .from pawn
brokers. ,
Ross was remanded in custody.

Tourists
Tens of thousands of people will be
visitors at the sixteen great Army
training camps this summer. Par
ents, relatives and friends of the
boys In training for overseas service
will want to see them in camp and
get an idea of these great soldier
cities with their khaki clad inhabit
ants.
This will undoubtedly mean that
many of these visitors will motor to
the camps from all parts of the
Union, as the railroad facilities are
all being used to speed up freight
transportation, the automobile offers
an ideal means of this kind of travil
and as aid to relieving congestion.
Appreciating this greatly Increased
travel, the Willys-Overland Company
Is now working out plans whereby
every dealer will act as an informa
tion bureau for tourist®. Word has
just been sent out by John N.
Willys to every distributor and deal
er located all over the United States,
urging ail motorists to use the Over
land dealer to give them the best
route from city to city, and asks
every dealer to co-operate in every

who are going to the cantonments.
By this plan it is .believed tha<t the

engine was not running, were com
pleted to-day. Commissioner Hassier
reported. They will be started to
morrow for a test run. With the
completion of these repairs, wlilch
cost thousands of dollars, the city
now has a pumping- capacity at the
plant of at least 25.000.000 gallons of
water a day, more than twice of the

Keystone Sales Co. Putting
Perfection Tires on Map
A few weeks ago a now automobile
accessory house came to town and
took on as its main seller the Perfec
tion tire. This new firm was the Key
stone Bales Company, located at 108
Market street. The Perfection tire,
while new to Harrisburgers, had al
ready made itself a reputation in the
middle west.
G. G. Gollirig, the manager of the
Keystone Sales Company, immediate
ly began spreading Perfection propo
ganda and in an interview yesterday
says, "The Perfection tire is the
coming tire in Harrisburg. The name
'Perfection' has a meaning .namely,
perfect. The Perfection tire Is the re
sult of extensive tests both in the
laboratory and on the road. It was
'.built to out do any other tire on the
market and for that reason a large
number of experiments were made to
determine what process would be the
best in the making of the tire so that
it would give longer and better serv
ice than the average tire of to-day.
Finally an asbestos breaker strip and
one layer of asbestos fabric was built
into the tire and it was found that
this was the ideal combination to se
cure the desired results. This asbes
tos acts as a protection in the curing
process and also adds strength to the
tire after it is on the road. The as
bestos allows a slower and more in
tensive curing which thoroughly
unite all the rubber in a perfect vul
canization.
"We have sold a surprisingly
large numiber in the past few weeks.
The results have exceeded our expec
tations and for this reason X feel sure
that the Perfection is a sure comer.
We have any number of inquiries in
regards to these tires. A good many
people think that this tire is so much
more expensive than the average
tire and aije much much surprised
when they learn that it is not any
more expensive than another tire."
The Keystone Sales Company also
distribute the Kely-Springfield, Ajax
and Sterling tires, and do a general
gasoline, oil and accessory business.

today—more so than ever before.
The car that will stand up to the telling strain of
war-time service (like the CADILLAC) will be well
worth the extra initial cost.
War-time service probably may mean service with
out the attention of experienced mechanics. The war
will be won by men and materials, and each is becom
ing increasingly scarce.
Reliability is paramount. The CADILLAC Is with
i out Question the most reliable motorcar built today.
