Hence, if the car canâ€" not be washed at once, it should at least ‘be thoroughly rinseq off. First soak all the mud down with a hose, removing the nozzle and permitting a large stream with low pressure to run over the finish. ({Begin at the top and work down; then you will remove the same mud only once. â€" The first rinsing usually loosens the dirt and the second removes it all. If it â€"does not, a soft sponge constantly_. saturated â€" with water should be slopped against the surface without rubbing. Greasy spots found after the: dirt is removed® should be washed with an olg chamois and some good, pure soap. But be carefu] not to leave any trace of soap on the car. Now rinse the car thoroughly, then wet a good, clean chamois, wring dry and go over the car body, wiping it dry. Have a different chamois for the running gear and use only on Wide roads, that is the need. The agitation at present is so strong for the construction of new highways throughout the country that one phase is not receiving the attention it should. ; New roads are highly desirable and certainly required in abundance, but it is obvious to point out that roads have not yet been built that cause no accidents. Canada is sorely in need of wider roads because of the press of traffic and the vast and continued increase among motor vehiclesâ€"parâ€" ticularly in trucks. the running gear and use only on that part of the car. Keep the wet car out of the sun until dry or the finish is liable to crack. Never dust a car with a feather duster or any kind of duster. Washing as outlined here is the best and practically the only way to keep the finish bright. This is particularly true at night, when headlights glare, or in the evening when the lights are subâ€" dued. The very bright or the exâ€" tremely dim lights make it difficult for the man at the wheel to judge distance or breadth in turning out a bit for the oncoming car. Of course, the safe thing to do is to give the "other fellow‘"‘ a wide berth, but the ragged road edges make this impracâ€" tical and not the height of wisdom. The consequence is that the mototrâ€" ist is on what might be termed "the ragged edge," regardless of what ho does. One point frequently overlooked by even the seasoned ° motorist when washing his car is that the engine and surrounding parts should be cold. Otherwise the hood and radiatou rof a car become dull and shabhby luoking while the rest of the car still louks neat. Heat dries the soap and po‘â€" ish, injuring the finish b:yond repair within a short tim» if the practice is continued. eclements destructive to the life Oof rubberâ€"not so much while in service but that extra tire hanging on the rack will suffer if not proberly covâ€" ered. The rwhber will crack. It is often dangerous to tufn out for the approaching car on account of the hummocks at the edge of the highways of of the soft muddy condiâ€" tion in damp weather. THE INDEPENDENT, GRIMSBY, ONTARIO Along this same line is the fact that more attention should be given to the gides of roads. A local dealer here has expressed as his opinion that at least threeâ€"fourths of our colâ€" lisions are due to the narrowness of the roads. Ninety Per Cent. of Trouble is From eglect Tire manufacturers have compiled some very interesting figures regardâ€" ing tires which have become unservice able prematurely. .One manufacturer states the loss of tires ruined before they become worn out through careâ€" lessness on the part Oof owners amounts . to $1.00,000,000 â€" annually, which loss could almost be entirely eliminated. Another â€" manufacturer says that one out of every three tires used is on a wheel out of alingment or one that is wobbly, causing the treaq to wear down quickly. Still another states that of tire which do not give complete satisfaction 90 per cent. of the trouble is due to the fact that the owners do not carry sufficient air pressure and do not have small cuts 'repaired on time.
