“CAN YOU PRAY, MR. TIPP' “WELL, ER—NO; BUT I CA BLESSING, IP THAT WILL DO.” Rhymed Reviews Ruggles of Red Gap (By Harry Leon Wilson. Doubleduy, Page & Co.) OME, what's the use resisting Fate? No difference how a person struggles, You'll find him reading, soon or late, About this English valet, Ruggles. He knew his place; he knew what one Should wear; he knew the proper chatter ; He knew what Simply Isn't Done By well-bred folks who Really Matter. ‘The noble George Vane-Basingwell, His master, lost him, playing poker. To Cousin Egbert Floud he fell— A wild and woolly Western joker. They freighted him across the main, Prepared for quite amazing changes, To Red Gap, somewhere ‘round Spokane, But back among the rugged ranges. He found, among these novel scenes, The same old arrogance obtrusive, With snobbish forms and rival queens And sets that tried to be Exclusive. Engaging first a skilled “raccoon” (For thus he learned to style a darky), He planned a restaurant, that soon Entranced the Social Oligarchy. And then, effectively to bar All future too-assertive actions, He crowned himself the Social Czar, Uniting all the warring factions. For Pride and Rank, those baubles gay With which the European juggles, Out West are wholly déclassé, Proclaims the democratic Ruggles. Arthur Guiterman, Why worn motors never “come back” Yor smallest expense — lubrication — is your only protection against your heaviest expense—depreciation. When motor wear comes, it comes to stay. The noises and rattle of worn-down motor parts grow worse—not better. Metal worn off by friction is gone forever. That is why worn motors don’t “come back.’ A year’s supply of the most efficient lubricating oil you can buy will cost you very litte more than the cheapest oil on the market—maybe five dollars a year. As a matter of fact, poor oils “use up" or “wear out” much more quickly than efficient oils—and_ so cost more than they appear to. And the very fact that they quickly “wear out” should be a warning signal. Poor “wearing” oil means a quick-wearing motor. Is it worth your while, then, to buy a cheap oil and risk serious and permanent depreciation in the value of your car? It is part of our daily work to analyze the lubricat- ing problems in large manufacturing plants, all over the world, and to specify the oils which will most efficiently meet the conditions in each case. The same thorough engineering analysis has been put into the study of automobile lubrication. The condensed lubrication Chart on this page is more than interested advice. It represents the best engineer- ing practice based upon extended scientific research. Among motorists who are intelligently watching ex- pense, this Chart has for years been a standard guide to correct lubrication. !f your car is not listed, a complete Chart will be sent at your request. A plain question you must decide is this: Will you buy correct lubrication—or pay ultimately for the costly penalties of incorrect lubrication?
